Chapter 1575 - Setting Up a Quantity For Long Yu Corporation
Chapter 1575 Setting Up a Quantity For Long Yu Corporation
May 13th, Monday.
Shanghai, Long Yu Corporation headquarters.
“Come, Brother Min, this way please!”
Long Yu Corporation’s human resource director, Boss Kang, warmly led Min Jingchao into his office.
Everyone in Long Yu Corporation treated Min Jingchao as a living God of Fortune.
In fact, at the beginning, the upper echelons of Long Yu Corporation had some differences in their cooperation with Tengda.
After all, Long Yu Corporation had fought with Tengda Corporation for so long and burned a lot of money and suffered a lot.
Under such circumstances, many higher-ups did not trust Tengda.
During the development period of Bullet Hole 2, Pei Qian requested that Long Yu Corporation could not interfere in the operations of this game. They did not even have the right to make suggestions. This aroused the resentment of many upper echelons of Long Yu Corporation!
However, after Bullet Hole 2 became popular, these voices disappeared.
Everyone expressed how fragrant it was!
After all, who would go against money?
Long Yu Corporation could directly make up for IOI’s losses with this game alone. What’s more, they could use this game to completely stabilize their position as a first-tier game channeler in the country!
As for the good financial statements and the rising stock prices, that was just a matter of time!
The upper echelons of Long Yu Corporation had also made a huge profit from this cooperation. Their hatred for Tengda naturally dissipated because of the money.
Of course, there were also some petty upper echelons who were still filled with prejudice against Tengda. However, under such circumstances, they did not dare to say anything!
Thus, Long Yu Corporation signed up immediately when Tengda announced the establishment of Tengda’s cooperation department.
At first, he did not have much hope because many companies signed up this time. What’s more, Long Yu Corporation had already indirectly worked with Tengda.
Unexpectedly, Min Jingchao really chose Long Yu Corporation!
This was obviously a good thing for the upper echelons of Long Yu Corporation. Naturally, they had to take it one hundred percent seriously.
Min Jingchao was not overwhelmed by Long Yu Corporation’s enthusiasm.
He knew that this was just a courtesy on the surface.
Once Min Jingchao laid his cards on the entire reform plan, some higher-ups of Long Yu Corporation would definitely stand up and stop him in various ways.
Thus, Min Jingchao did not appear too enthusiastic. He sat down and took a sip of tea before saying indifferently.
“Boss Pei should have communicated with you about the details of the cooperation agreement, right?”.
Boss Kang quickly nodded. “We’ve communicated. We completely agree and abide by all the content in the agreement. There’s no problem changing the communication software!”
It was called communication, but it was actually Boss Pei’s unilateral order!
Who would dare to question Boss Pei’s decision?
What if he made Boss Pei unhappy and asked Min Jingchao to change companies to work with him? Wouldn’t the opportunity slip away?
Therefore, even if Long Yu Corporation had some doubts about some of the content in this agreement, they could only accept it unconditionally! What’s more, this was not the first time this cooperation model had been used.
Boss Pei’s attitude towards the previous cooperation was very tough! Long Yu Corporation was already used to it this time.
Min Jingchao was very satisfied. “Let’s start immediately since there are no problems!”
Boss Kang was a little surprised. “There’s no need to be so anxious, right? Why don’t you take a break first? I’ll call a few people in charge to accompany you for a meal tonight to welcome the dust. We’ll talk while eating when we reach the dining table.”
Min Jingchao immediately shook his head. “Time is precious. Let’s save on these cumbersome details!”
“My plan is to finish all the work in two weeks. Let’s make the best use of our time!”
Boss Kang was stunned. “Huh? Two weeks?!”
How was this something that could be done in two weeks?
Two months was more or less enough. Half a year was not too long!
However, Boss Kang did not dare to say much seeing Min Jingchao’s confident expression.
Seeing that Boss Kang was stunned, Min Jingchao added, “Send someone to assist me as soon as possible. He’ll be in charge of communicating with the various departments.”
“It would be best if you are familiar with the game operations business. You would have a certain amount of experience and prestige in the various departments.”
Boss Kang did not dare to be negligent. “No problem. I wonder if you have anyone you want to choose?”
Without thinking, Min Jingchao said, “Is there a person-in-charge in the operations department called Jin Yong? I heard from Boss Zhao that this person has a good reputation and is reliable. Let’s call him over.”
Boss Kang did not expect Min Jingchao to have a candidate. It looked like he had come prepared. He did not dare to be negligent.
Jin Yong was now in charge of the operations of Bullet Hole 2. However, considering that Tengda had set the operations strategy for this game, Jin Yong actually did not have much work to do.
For someone like Jin Yong, who was more capable and could come out and take charge of the beam at any time, doing this kind of work was a little wasted. It would not be a waste of his talent to ask him to help Min Jingchao.
Boss Kang nodded. “I need to ask the Head, Boss Ding, about this. However, don’t worry, there shouldn’t be any big problems. I’ll arrange for his personnel transfer as soon as possible.”
Min Jingchao was very satisfied with Boss Kang’s cooperation.
Before he came, Min Jingchao had done a rough investigation and had a certain understanding of Longyu Corporation’s situation.
According to Zhao Xuming, Jin Yong was a trusted assistant.
If Min Jingchao wanted to make drastic changes to Long Yu Corporation’s game operating model, the biggest resistance would come from the company’s boss, President Ding!
However, Min Jingchao did not panic. He had come prepared.
It was not difficult to deal with Boss Ding. He just had to bring out the great Buddha, Pei Qian.
Everything was ready now. Min Jingchao could wait for Jin Yong to arrive and deploy the specific reform plan with him!
..
In the afternoon, Long Yu Corporation, Tengda’s cooperation department, and Long Yu Corporation’s operations team were in the new office.
After a busy morning, Jin Yong’s handover of work was completed very quickly.
At the same time, Min Jingchao’s team’s special office space had been packed.
In this huge office space, there were not only Min Jingchao and Jin Yong’s work desks, but also the work desks of some of the main game project managers of Long Yu Corporation.
Originally, the person-in-charge of the various game projects were scattered in different places. Now, they were gathered together.
Min Jingchao had specially requested for this. It was modified according to Tengda’s model.
That was because Min Jingchao felt that as the heads of the various departments, it was very easy for them to not communicate well in their respective offices.
What’s more, he could easily chase them away after work!
Jin Yong had already interacted with Min Jingchao when he was the person-in-charge of the operations department for Bullet Hole 2 previously. He was also affected by Tengda’s operating concept. Thus, he did not need to work together too much and could be connected directly.
“These are the few main projects that we are currently operating. Do you want to see how to change them?” Jin Yong briefly introduced the situation of the few game projects.
Min Jingchao briefly looked at the situation of these games and did not speak for the time being.
They were all games with paywalls, and they were the type that were filled with money!
Long Yu Corporation’s previous operating strategy had exhausted everything.
It was not appropriate to push the blame to Boss Zhao and Jin Yong. The source should still be Boss Ding!
This operating strategy was to pay too much attention to data performance, everything was based on data.
There was a saying that data would not lie. There seemed to be no problem with this sentence, but there was also a comprehensive data and one-sided data!
If the one-sided data was misinterpreted, he might get a completely wrong answer.
In Min Jingchao’s opinion, data could naturally reflect problems, but he could not rely on data for everything.
Why else would he need operations staff? Was it just a design event?
As a operations staff, the most important task was to analyze a game and understand how players felt!
He could not completely submit to players, nor could he completely ignore players.
Game operations could also be considered as alternative game designers. However, designers focused on gameplay, and game operations focused on spending and activities for players.
Min Jingchao had a clear plan before he came. After some consideration, he said, “We’ll simply divide these games into three categories.”
“The first type is already about to die. For such games, the current operations that are planned should be activities that exhaust all the remaining value, right?”
“Cancel all similar activities.”
“We have to make drastic changes to these games to avoid the loss of low-level players as much as possible.”
“As for the specifics, I have a report here. It talks about Bloody Battle Song’s situation back then. Go back and study it.”
“The second type is games that are at the peak of their career and have great prospects. For such games, go to the forum and listen to the players’ demands. prioritize improving the problems that they are more concerned about!”
“We should not make too many changes to the current framework. We have to progress slowly!”
“The third type is more special. They are games that are neither popular nor deserted. For these games, reduce the pressure on their research and development team’s performance and let them have more gameplay to maintain restraint in terms of operations!”
“Find a few reliable person-in-charge to formulate a plan for the characteristics of these projects. They will be completed within three days!”
Min Jingchao’s words surprised Jin Yong. He thought that Min Jingchao would change all the games into Tengda’s good-hearted game model!
After all, from Min Jingchao’s resume, GOG to Bullet Hole 2 had relied on the operating idea of a good-hearted game to win the world!
Unexpectedly, Min Jingchao gave a completely different operating plan for these games.
However, this also highlighted Min Jingchao’s professionalism!
That was because the game’s operating strategy was directly linked to the game’s charging method, and the game’s charging method often involved the game’s basic structure and game design.
If he did not delve deep into the basic structure of the game and determine its feasibility, changing the game’s operations strategy rashly might cause the effect of asking for a sword to be carved. It would backfire!

Min Jingchao’s thoughts were very clear!
Min Jingchao’s thoughts were not to squeeze out the remaining value of the games that were about to die. Instead, he was to change drastically and work hard to achieve survival!
Through such drastic changes, he could reverse the vicious cycle of gamers disappearing and bet on a miracle!
On the other hand, he could not act rashly towards games that were doing well in operations and were thriving. Every change that he made had to be strictly verified!
As for those lukewarm games, they were at the root of the game. They worked hard to release better gameplay and better operations!
All in all, once these three strategies were released, Jin Yong realized that Min Jingchao could operate GOG and Bullet Hole 2 so well. He definitely deserved his reputation, and he could not have relied on Boss Pei!
He was indeed talented!
