Chapter 623 - Boss Pei’s ‘Scrounge’ Formula (2/2)

“It is not that they had no money, but they were not willing to spend money. Therefore, this matter can only be shelved.”

Pei Qian nodded silently. He originally thought that Eric seemed to be a talent, but now it seemed like he wasn’t. The main reason why Eric was smashed in the domestic server was that of Dayak’s management.

Pei Qian’s ability was not in how much money he had but how much he dared to spend.

It would seem like you are 10 times richer than me when I have 100 yuan and you have 1,000 yuan. However, I was fine with spending the entire 100 yuan while you have to weigh the pros and cons of spending 20 yuan. Therefore, I am stronger in monetary terms.

Pei Qian soon became disinterested in Eric’s affairs.

Eh, I thought he could put some pressure on GOG in the country so that I could spend another wave of money and earn less.

He was disappointed.

Pei Qian had a bad feeling about this.

“However, his third attack has begun,” Lin Wan continued.

“In the first two attempts, he seemed to have realized that GOG’s base is very stable, including the internet cafes, clubs, and live-stream platforms are all deeply tied to us. GOG-related industries are all under monopoly. He would not be able to do anything to get in.

“Therefore, Eric probably changed his thinking to get other players who had yet to play GOG to enter IOI. They seem to plan on focusing on third parties such as beverages, male skincare, mouse, and gaming chairs for collaboration.

“Boss Pei, do you think we should follow suit?”

Pei Qian’s eyes brightened up.

This Eric actually found a breakthrough even though he was in such a passive position? Cooperate with third parties? Why didn’t we think of it previously?

Very good, this Eric has given me new avenues to spend money!

I’m grateful to him!

Pei Qian nodded. “Necessary, definitely necessary!”

“Watch him closely. Cooperate with whoever Eric cooperates with. We’ll follow closely behind no matter who he chooses! No need to use your brain, just spend money, how easy!”

Everyone could not help but show the same expression.

Tengda Games did the same when Shang Yang Games was pushing the IOI domestic server previously. GOG would follow behind them brainlessly no matter what sort of promotional method IOI thought of!

The word ‘scrounge’ was enough to make everyone in Shang Yang Games desire death.

There would be no way out for IOI if GOG were to follow them brainlessly since GOG had already crushed them in domestic users. At the same time, everyone was now more certain that what Tengda Games did previously was something they learned from Boss Pei.

These hooligan tricks were all the same!

Everyone was saying their prayers for Eric, watching the fire from the shore.

Pei Qian, on the other hand, was immersed in the joy of discovering a new way to spend money. He did not care about Eric’s life or death.

“Alright, this matter is settled. Continue.” Pei Qian waved his hand.

“GOG’s overseas promotion had achieved good results,” Lin Wan continued.

“Boss Pei, we have acquired a comic company in the United States with the remaining 20 million US dollars. This company, Hurricane Comic Company, has less than a 5% market share. We have decided to use its biggest IP, Multifaceted Man, as the main hero for publicity.

“We have put up the publicity of the Multifaceted Man and GOG in Times Square, subways, bus stations, and major websites after some preparation. GOG’s overseas users are growing rapidly by the day.

“GOG’s conscience pricing is highly acclaimed among overseas players. It’s interesting that Literary Genius of the Winds, Ruan and Modest have also won the love of overseas players.

“Tengda Games has now completed the production of the Multifaceted Man which can be launched during the weekend. There should be a surge of traffic then!”

Pei Qian frowned slightly. “Wait, the Hurricane Comic Company you just mentioned… it didn’t happen to make a movie called Iron Man, right?

“Iron Man? What’s that? Hurricane comics did not have any film-making capabilities and is on the verge of bankruptcy. Otherwise, we would not have been able to buy them for 20 million US dollars.” Lin Wan shook her head, a little lost.

Pei Qian was relieved.

Yes, what did I say? I can’t be that unlucky every time.

It would not be possible for me to always buy companies that are seriously undervalued, right? That would be way too unscientific.

I was still having headaches about how to spend the 20 million US dollars previously. I could finally rest assured now that it had been spent smoothly.

Moreover, they bought a comic company that not only had less than 5% market share but was also about to go bankrupt. It would not be able to bring down IOI overseas, which is great.

The offensive should not be too violent; let GOG eat away at IOI’s market share bit by bit. Dayak Corporation would then resist, and GOG would continue to spend justified promotional money.

You expand your market share; I grab your market share. This cycle would form a perpetual loop. GOG and IOI would then continue to play happily on the overseas servers. Everyone burns money happily.

Wouldn’t that be beautiful?

Dayak, I have no choice but to make you my new money-burning tree since you bought over my old money-burning tree—that was IOI domestic server!
