"Of course," Song Yan said, "I don't have any other ideas. I'm just curious how this company can train its receptionists to become people with mature business ideas."
"Why do you say that the company trained me? Can't you say that I am smart and have a strong ability to understand?" Shen Pan boasted.
Song Yan smiled lightly and nodded, "Yes, Miss Shen is smart and has a strong ability to comprehend."
Chen Pan was very pleased. "If you have anything fun in the future, you can ask me to try it out. I'm a veteran 2D player and have played all kinds of games. I should be able to help you more or less."
Song Yan looked at her in surprise: "Are you a homebody too?"
"What? You still don't believe it?" Chen Pan asked back.
Zhou Mo hugged Lu Zhen and said with a smile, "Chen Pan is not only a homebody, but he also has his own comic book. The first volume has been published, and he is now preparing for the second volume."
"Where is it serialized?" Song Yan looked excited.
Chen Pan looked at his excitement but his face turned dark, "Uh... I draw romance comics, the main audience is women, not hot-blooded boys' comics."
"I know," Song Yan asked, "Is it in July's sub-magazine 'MoMo' or 'ToBeGrils'?"
This time it was Shen Pan's turn to have his eyes light up and his pupils vibrate.
The two publications Song Yan mentioned are currently the two most popular female-oriented anime serial magazines. The fact that he can name these two shows that he is an old fan of the two-dimensional world.
“On MoMo.”
"Is there the latest issue?" Song Yan pretended to take out his phone. "I downloaded their app. Let me take a look."
"No, the first volume was completed last month."
"When will the second volume be released?" Song Yan asked.
"Um... I just showed the first chapter to the editor. It may need some revisions," Shen Pan said. "But the editor said that he would contact the publisher first to publish a single volume for me to see how well it sells. If it sells well, he would let me start serializing the second volume as soon as possible."
"Let me know when the single volume goes on sale and I'll help you." Song Yan was very happy.
Shen Pan frowned in confusion, "How can you help me?"
"Buy it for you?"
"Uh..." Chen Pan was embarrassed. "How many copies can you buy for me? Besides... you're a boy, so you don't read this kind of girls' comics, right?"
"Who says boys don't read girls' comics?" Song Yan said, "If I can't find the comics I want on July, I'll go to MoMo to find them. Works oriented towards women tend to portray emotions in a more nuanced way, and the characters are novel and interesting. Sometimes they're even more engaging than those aimed at men. Isn't reading comics all about the story? As long as the story is good, there's bound to be an audience for both men and women."
Shen Pan nodded and gave Song Yan a thumbs up, approving of his statement.
"How about the three of us form a group?" Song Yan suggested.
Zhou Mo and Shen Pan looked at each other, then looked at Song Yan in confusion.
Song Yan said, "When I give you a product trial later, we can discuss it in the group."
Zhou Mo felt a little redundant and said, "As for the product trial, you two can discuss it. I don't understand it either, so why not bring me along as a burden?"
Song Yan said, “Miss Zhou, I met Miss Shen through you, how could I not bring you along?”
Shen Pan also said: "Yes, yes, Mr. Song and I are not familiar with each other, it would be so awkward without you."
Zhou Mo: “…”
She thought to herself, isn't she embarrassed?
She and Song Yan are not familiar with each other...
Before he could say anything else, Song Yan had already created a face-to-face group with Shen Pan and pulled Zhou Mo in.
The two began discussing VR equipment again.
Zhou Mo took Lu Nian with him, talked to her and played with her.
This room was decorated like an exhibition hall, with all kinds of VR equipment inside. Shen Pan tried almost all of the equipment in the room. After a tour around the Amazon, Shen Pan still felt unsatisfied. He put down the VR helmet and turned to Song Yan and said, "Old Song, you have so many things, are you going to hold an exhibition?"
Zhou Mo was shocked when he heard this name.
Are these two people so familiar with each other? They changed their names so quickly.
"The exhibition has already been held. I personally want to collect them, so I brought them all home."
"Arrogant." Chen Pan gave Song Yan two words.
Song Yan smiled and said, "These are the first generation products. The second generation products are still being upgraded and haven't come off the assembly line yet. I'll take you to experience them once they're out."
Chen Pan was tired from playing and turned around to sit on the lounge chair. "Don't blame me for pouring cold water on you. In fact, there are many ways to entertain yourself now, and games are not necessary. Even if many people play games, take the current mobile games as an example. Chicken Dinner and King of Glory each occupy half of the game market. It's too difficult for you to squeeze into the game market."
"I know," Song Yan said, "but the domestic commodity economy can't always remain in low-end manufacturing. It must always undergo technological innovation, impact high-end industries, and open up new tracks. There are indeed various apps booming in China now, but in terms of technology, there is basically not much high-tech content. They are mainly mass-produced to meet the needs of the masses. To put it bluntly, they are middlemen and intermediaries. They don't profit from the benefits of technological innovation, but from information fees caused by information asymmetry. As for the games you mentioned, besides these two, how many other ones are worth mentioning? Last April, on a whim, I downloaded a 3D MMORPG mobile game. Within three months of the game's launch, the user loss exceeded 60%. In March of this year, the service was officially shut down. Although the game's graphics and effects are above average and it has a major IP as a support, it is still confined to the traditional game industry. Without innovation, it can't retain players. What I want to do is not to go from 1 to 100, but from 0 to 1."
"I understand," Shen Pan said, "You want to make something similar to the Nintendo Switch and Sony PlayStation series."
