Jade Building, Dream Entertainment's temporary headquarters.
Shi Lei was blocked outside the Jade Building by the protesting players. The players hoped that Shi Lei would give them a clear answer regarding the second round of VR gaming helmets.
Hermit nodded and smiled at Shi Lei. "Boss Shi, the second suggestion is very beneficial to Dream Entertainment!"
"Oh? Is that so? What's the second suggestion? "Shi Lei asked curiously.
"The second suggestion is that we hope that Dream Entertainment will allow players to purchase VR gaming helmets. Even if the production capacity is insufficient, we can still allow players to pre-order the VR gaming helmets in full. I believe this suggestion will be very beneficial to Dream Entertainment, right? " Hermit said proudly. This suggestion was made by a player in the manufacturing industry.
The best way to sell products was to pre-order the VR gaming helmets in full. Then, they would manufacture the product according to the order. That way, there would be zero inventory pressure and zero risk of cash flow. This was the most ideal sales method for a company. It was also the method used by many mobile phone companies in the future.
To put it bluntly, this method was called selling futures! A certain mobile phone company in the future was very good at using this method!
Shi Lei smiled. He did not care much about this suggestion. Shi Lei did not care much about it. The pre-order method was great. Not only could they receive the full deposit in advance, but they could also confirm the sales volume of the product.
However, that was only for ordinary products from ordinary companies!
Dream Entertainment's VR gaming helmets would not have to worry about sales. There was no need to sell futures that would damage the company's image. After all, once the players pre-ordered the VR gaming helmets, if Dream Entertainment delayed the delivery of the VR gaming helmets, there would definitely be experts who would say that the manufacturing process of the VR gaming helmets was simple and that Dream Entertainment was deliberately delaying the delivery.
If there was no such thing as a full reservation, even if experts and professors stood up to complain, Dream Entertainment could completely ignore them. After all, if Dream Entertainment said that the manufacturing process of the VR gaming helmets was difficult, then it was difficult.
"Not bad! That's a good suggestion! "Shi Lei said calmly.
The hermit looked at Shi Lei in confusion. He could sense that Shi Lei wasn't very interested in the second suggestion.
"Boss Shi, is your company not planning to pre-sell the VR gaming helmet?" Hermit asked anxiously.
Shi Lei shook his head. "The players are hermits. Dream Entertainment doesn't do futures business. The manufacturing process of the VR gaming helmet was complicated, and the production capacity was very limited. At present, we can barely gather 8,555 units for the second round of sales. "
"What? Only 8,555? "The surrounding players began to discuss in low voices.
How could three thousand VR gaming helmets be enough?
The number of registered players in the World of Heroes and the number of players currently online could be checked on the official website of the World of Heroes at any time. At the same time, this data could be checked at any time in the Hero's World.
There were more than twenty million registered players and more than ten million online players over a long period of time. It would be quite difficult to purchase a VR gaming helmet in the second round of pre-sales!
Hermit and Qi Tun Shanhe glanced at each other and smiled bitterly at the same time.
"Boss Shi, may I know how Dream Entertainment plans to sell the VR gaming helmet?" Zhou Shanhe asked.
Shi Lei didn't plan to hide the plan for the second round of sales. He explained it in detail. "Dream Entertainment has already decided on the second round of sales. We'll give up on the first round of sales and use a fairer random method to ensure that every player has a chance to purchase the VR gaming helmet. "
Shi Lei took a deep breath and continued, "The second round of sales will be carried out in the Hero's World of Heroes. It will use a random reward method. When players kill monsters or complete missions, they will have a chance to purchase the VR gaming helmet."
"This …" Zhou Shanhe said tactfully, "Boss Shi, a large number of players in the Hero's World of Heroes can't afford the price of the VR gaming helmet. Even if they get the VR gaming helmet, the biggest use is to increase the price of the VR gaming helmet to the players who really need it. Isn't this a little unfair to the players who really need the VR gaming helmet? "
This was the problem that Mu Shuang had mentioned!
The random distribution of the VR gaming helmet would cause dissatisfaction among the high-end players!
However, Shi Lei had already thought of a solution to this problem. It was to give the high-end players special privileges so that they could enjoy the privilege of being superior to others. This would offset their dissatisfaction.
The so-called special privileges were to increase the chances of them obtaining the VR gaming helmet purchase certificate!
"Tungshanhe, Dream Entertainment, also has a specific solution to this problem." Shi Lei explained in detail again.
"The number of VR gaming helmets for the second round has been confirmed to be three thousand. The three thousand VR gaming helmets will be divided into two parts and placed in the Hero's World of Heroes. The purchase qualifications will be determined by random rewards. The 7,455 VR gaming helmets will only be obtained by players who have spent more than 05,555 Xia yuan on the official website of the Hero's World of Heroes. "Shi Lei mentioned the first special privilege that was beneficial to the high-end players.
Zhou Shanhe quickly asked, "Boss Shi, is the first-generation personal gaming server purchased through Dream Entertainment considered an official purchase?"
"Yes! The glitter level of the first generation of personal game servers is 93,555 yuan. Including other official consumption, including the consumption through the official virtual item trading system, is also included. "Shi Lei replied with certainty, swallowing mountains and rivers.
Some of the players heard that the official virtual item trading system's purchases were also included, so they obviously had some evil thoughts.
Shi Lei explained with a smile, "Although the official virtual item trading system's purchases are also included in the official purchase, please don't cheat! The official virtual item trading system is supported by the main system of the Hero's World of Heroes. If players attempt to make fake transactions, they will be disqualified from the second round of VR gaming helmets after being verified by the main system of the Hero's World of Heroes. "
The official virtual item trading system's purchases were counted as official purchases. This would create a loophole that wasn't really a loophole. If two players who knew each other bought high-priced items from each other, they would only need to pay a small processing fee to meet the official purchase requirement of 05,555 yuan.
Shi Lei took the initiative to explain that the official virtual item trading system was controlled by the main system of the Hero's World of Heroes. Some of the players who had other ideas immediately shrank back and no longer attempted to cheat to meet the official purchase requirement of 05,555 yuan.
Just this spending restriction alone had eliminated a lot of players, giving the players who really needed to buy a VR gaming helmet a precious opportunity to buy one.
This rule would also fill the resentment of the high-end players. Not only would they not have any resentment, but they would also develop a sense of superiority.
After all, they originally needed to compete with more than ten million players for the right to buy 8,555 VR gaming helmets. Now, they only needed to compete with tens of thousands for the right to buy 7,455 VR gaming helmets. This increased the probability of success by more than a hundred times!
If there were fifteen million players competing for 8,555 VR gaming helmets, then the average probability of obtaining a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate would be one in five thousand. This meant that only one out of five thousand players would be qualified to buy a VR gaming helmet.
However, after the special official purchase requirement, only about forty thousand players would be qualified to participate in the random reward of 7,455 VR gaming helmets. If fifty thousand players were qualified to participate, then the average probability of obtaining a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate would be 0.3%.
After the special official purchase requirement, players who really needed to buy a VR gaming helmet would have a probability of obtaining a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate that was 745 times higher than if they didn't meet the special requirements!
Gulping Mountains and Rivers and Alley Hermit were the players who really needed to buy a VR gaming helmet. After hearing Shi Lei's explanation, they heaved a huge sigh of relief.
"The last hundred VR gaming helmets will be available to players who don't meet the special official purchase requirement." Shi Lei explained the situation that was disadvantageous to the low-end players. However, Shi Lei continued, "The purchase certificate for these hundred VR gaming helmets will be reduced by fifty percent when they are sold through the official virtual item trading system."
Reducing the purchase fee was a way to attract the low-end players. It was also a way to remind the low-end players that they could sell the VR gaming helmets. The official purchase of the VR gaming helmets would not be restricted. Only the players with the purchase certificate would be allowed to buy them.
"Haha, Boss Shi, we really like the way the second round of VR gaming helmets will be sold!" Zhou Shanhe took the lead and said. This result was much better than what they had expected. They couldn't ask for more.
After all, Dream Entertainment was more arrogant. If they angered Dream Entertainment, they might stop selling the VR gaming helmets. That would be too painful for the players.
Shi Lei continued, "In order to reward the players who supported Dream Entertainment in the early days, those who activated the game with the beta invitation code will have a three percent chance of obtaining a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate for the second round of VR gaming helmets!"
The World of the Heroes' closed beta period was relatively short. Shi Lei was compensating the players who used the beta invitation code to enter the World of the Heroes.
Some of the players who activated the game with the beta invitation code were overjoyed. Because the players who met the special official purchase requirement had a chance of obtaining a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate as high as 3.3 percent if they were beta testers. This was a very high chance. They could easily obtain a VR gaming helmet purchase certificate by completing dozens of missions within a day!
"By the way, players, to thank you for your support of Dream Entertainment, I have a big gift for you!" Shi Lei smiled as he announced the good news.
