Chapter 382 Are there any preferential measures?
After Jester finished speaking, the audience was speechless.
Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, but they didn't know what to say. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the method Jester mentioned was still very operational. At least they couldn't find any rebuttal for a while, since they couldn't find it, they would agree.
This is the case at Mars Entertainment. No one has the authority to decide. As long as what you say makes sense, it will be recognized. Even Jester is no exception. If he wants to pass a resolution, he will make the truth and make people think that what he says is in line with the facts, and others have no better plan yet.
For example, now.
"Will this news be announced to the public immediately?" A supervisor of the marketing department immediately asked. Dreambox2's external release work was jointly carried out by them and Fengxing Issued. Fengxing Issued is responsible for the issuance, but how to issue it is formulated by Mars Entertainment's marketing department.
After hearing this question, Jester pondered for a moment, as if he had thought for a while before speaking: "You can contact Fengxing and publish our opinions first, and then wait until Sega's price reduction strategy begins, and we will announce it to the public. Anyway, our release date will be in the next week, so we don't need to hurry this."
After discussing this issue, the main content of this meeting was only halfway through discussion, and there were still a lot of issues related to game development that needed to be discussed in a concentrated manner, so time was still relatively tight. So when Jester saw this proposal, everyone had nothing to do, so he started the next discussion.
Since Koguchi Kusato announced that their Sega MD was about to cut prices in a week, it can be said that the entire game industry has been shocked, especially those players, who are even more excited. Even if they are not their fans - because as the most direct and most important competitor of Mars Entertainment, it is also the most important competitor at present. The price of Sega's sixteen consoles has been reduced, so Mars Entertainment cannot not bargain.
However, many game media are preparing to watch jokes about Mars Entertainment this time.
Because Sega's time point was very good this time, after Mars Entertainment just announced the price of Dreambox2 at their external press conference, it was like a fish stalk stuck in the throat of Mars Entertainment. The previous price of Dreambox2 was almost the same as that of Sega's md host. However, as the price of MD host is reduced, then dreambox2 will be too expensive compared to the md host, which is also a sixteen-bit host.
The difference of fifty dollars is not a decimal.
These media also began to report on this issue gloatingly. Many media are commenting on this emergencies in this way. After all, Sega's significant targeted price cut was beyond the expectations of others.
They commented: "This time Sega hit the key point of Mars Entertainment, forcing them to make changes immediately after just announcing their results. In such a situation, as long as Mars Entertainment does not want to disappoint most of the players who originally supported them, they must make a decision, that is, they must lower the price!"
Of course, these media are not saying this well-intentioned, but for the sake of the subsequent ridicule and ridicule.
Maybe it was because they had no malice, they simply wanted to attract the attention of players and increase the ratings. For example, a TV program in California became popular with this little bit, and their initial remarks were similar to those above, as if they were really considering Mars Entertainment.
But immediately the conversation changed and their true intentions began to be revealed.
The beautiful host obviously had already obtained the manuscript before. She looked down at it first, and then said in a very pity tone: "As we all know, Mars Entertainment is the leader in this industry. In the era of eight-bit computers, they once occupied nearly 80% of the entire home game console market in the world. However, now they have to adjust themselves according to some strategies of another challenger. This has to be said to be a sad thing..."
These words can be said to be jealous. What is a more challenging strategy to adjust? Has Mars Entertainment's status changed from an industry leader to a follower? These media are naturally very good at using this method of changing concepts, but after watching this show, Jester sneered at it.
Of course they will respond, because Mars Entertainment is not a company that is arrogant and arrogant, but a company that is constantly seeking change. Of course, their changes are definitely not a rough copy of other companies' practices. They have their own ways to get some discounts to players who like them.
After the show was broadcast, many players called to ask if Mars Entertainment was also going to sell the game with a price cut like Sega.
The customer service staff of Mars Entertainment had received news before, and when faced with such inquiries, they would answer them and there was no way to tell them.
Because there is no way to tell.
However, soon, in order to temporarily calm the players' curiosity about this matter, an internal staff member of Mars Entertainment "inadvertently" leaked an internal top-secret information in an interview with a certain media. Although the internal staff member regretted that what he said was nonsense and did not receive recognition from the senior management of Mars Entertainment, it was just his own conjecture. However, the media interviewing him still reported the news very unkindly.
The insider of Mars Entertainment, who was unwilling to reveal his name, said, of course, this is the media's statement. Is it true that they are confident? Only they themselves know: "We did prepare huge discount measures for the players who have always supported us when it was officially released, which will definitely make everyone feel our sincerity... What? You say that compared to Sega's discounts? I can only say that we are a big company, not a small company like that. We have the greatest confidence in our products. We don't want to play tricks like those small companies. We will prove in many ways why it is right to buy our products!"
The reporter also caught the loophole in what the insider of Mars Entertainment said at that time and immediately began to ask: "Does your potential meaning be said? That is to say, your discount measures are not as big as Sega?"
The insider of Mars Entertainment immediately changed his face. He seemed to understand that he had just leaked the news that he should have leaked, so he began to deny that what he said was not true, but what he thought was that he was just a small staff member of Mars Entertainment. It was impossible for him to know that such things that would be included in high-level secrets inside.
However, in any case, through this report, players also know that Mars Entertainment has prepared preferential measures.
Time passed day by day. In fact, after the interview program of Xiaoguchi Hiroyuki caused a sensation in the gaming industry, it took less than a week to the official release of the Dreambox2 console, but only five days. The release time of Dreambox2 is the same as that of all game consoles, and it was on weekends. This is also a convention.
Just two days before the release, Mars Entertainment did not announce their discount measures, and it seemed that they were not in a hurry at all, so players would not buy their consoles because of this.
In fact, some players are indeed dissatisfied, but fans who are willing to join the starter as soon as possible are all those hardcore fans, which are only 50 dollars more expensive, and it doesn't matter to these hardcore fans. Although they have not received the specific discount for Mars Entertainment, they still have no choice but to queue up at the first spot to get the starter as soon as possible.
However, Mars Entertainment is obviously not the kind of company that only knows how to use the enthusiasm of players. They have not announced it to the public before, but because their preparations have not been prepared, just two days before the release, Mars Entertainment, which has prepared everything, once again held a small media meeting.
This meeting only summoned several local Los Angeles game media, and the news released was not very much, but it was extremely eye-catching during this period, that is, Mars Entertainment’s specific discount measures for dreambox2.
I haven't attended such events for a long time, and for many years, I have devoted almost all my energy to Mark Seni actually attended this press conference, which is enough to know that Mars Entertainment attaches great importance to this release event.
You should know that Mark Seni was the entrepreneurial partner of Jester Lee at the beginning. He is currently the only person who owns shares in Mars Entertainment, except for the Jester Lee family. The other most outstanding designers of Mars Entertainment, namely the decision-making members who Mars Entertainment often talk about, only have the right to pay dividends and no real value.
Mark Seni is still easy to talk to, but this time he obviously doesn't want to say much. The media didn't come much, and Mars Entertainment said hello before. This time he came just to interview about the promotional measures of dreambox2. I hope they don't ask questions that are not within this range.
Chapter completed!
