Chapter 225 Why is there one more person?
Click.
As the door to the room opens.
Gu Sheng bowed slightly and opened the door with little Nezha on his back.
Shen Miaomiao, on the other hand, held Gu Sheng's neck with one hand, holding high heels in her hand, and holding the phone in the other hand:
“Well, yes, let’s go there tomorrow… in the morning, around ten o’clock… OK, okay, that’s troublesome, um, bye…”
As the phone was hung up, the two of them walked into the entrance hall.
Shen Miaomiao, who was lying on Gu Sheng's back, bent her legs, hooked the door handle behind her with her feet, and closed the door with smooth movements, smoother than Dove.
“You are quite good at making decisions,”
Gu Sheng said while changing his shoes:
“I, the landlord, haven’t decided whether to go or not, but you, the tenant, are quite active.”
“Nonsense! We can rent a large flat floor of more than 240 square meters for 1,500 yuan a month!”
Shen Miaomiao waved her arms excitedly:
“Wouldn’t you be tempted if it were you?”
Gu Sheng raised his eyebrows: "When did I agree that the rent of my new home would be 1,500 a month?"
“Hey?!” Shen Miaomiao was shocked: “You can’t do this! Why are you still raising the price?”
Seeing that Lao Gu wanted to increase her rent, Shen Miaomiao quickly followed the temptation:
“As the saying goes—”
“Life is only a handful of days, only thirty-six thousand days at most; a family has tens of thousands of houses, and sleeping needs to be three feet wide.”
“People are like flowers in a pot, life is a mess, no matter how well-built a house is, it’s just a temporary residence—!”
“Get down here quickly!”
Gu Sheng immediately threw little Nezha onto the sofa.
If she keeps talking, she will live in a small box.
ifies.
Shen Miaomiao fell into the soft sofa.
But the next second, I heard a cry of pain: "Ouch!"
“What’s wrong?” Gu Sheng was surprised.
Turning around, he saw little Nezha covering his head, his big eyes quickly became teary-eyed, and he said twice: "Uh-huh--"
Following a wow sound, Shen Miaomiao grinned and cried:
“Head...wuwuwu...hit my head...just because of the rent...”
“Oh, I’m sorry, I’m not joking with you. I’ve bought a house and one person can’t live in more than 200 square meters. It’s up to you whether the rent is 1,000 yuan or 500 yuan.”
Gu Sheng didn't know where she hit, so he turned around quickly and rubbed little Nezha's head, his tone was a little panicked:
“Okay, okay, don’t cry anymore, I didn’t see clearly, blame me, blame me, come and see if it’s damaged...”
“Wuwuwu…it should be no…”
Shen Miaomiao said:
“Because...wuwu...because I’m pretending to be hi hi hi!!”
Shen Miaomiao let go of her hand holding her head, bared her small white teeth, and imitated Gu Sheng's sly raised eyebrows, winking at him, and stretched out a small slap:
“Five hundred a month! You said so yourself! You can’t go back on it!”
“What the hell…”
Gu Sheng’s people are all numb!
What the hell! ah? What the **** is this?
“You abused my sympathy?”
Gu Sheng was dumbfounded and couldn't believe that Shen Miaomiao, a rich lady, could actually use such a despicable method:
“Helena, the complete set of your skin care products! You pay me five hundred a month in rent? Are you embarrassed?”
“That’s great!”
Shen Miaomiao blinked her big eyes, with a look of 'what will you do to me':
“I have no money! All my money is used for your public relations!”
“That’s all a matter of years and years!”
Gu Sheng scratched his hair:
“How long are you going to eat like this?”
“Hmph!”
Hearing this, Shen Miaomiao snorted coldly, smiled like a wealthy layman, stood up on the sofa, and leaned close to Gu Sheng's ear:
“This is what you are doing... I will eat it for the rest of my life...”
Gu Sheng was silent.
There was silence for a full five seconds.
Then he smiled comfortably: "Haha."
Shen Miaomiao thought he had accepted his fate and grinned happily: "Hehe."
For a moment, Gu Sheng crossed his shoulders with both hands and looked up and down with great interest at Shen Miaomiao, who was standing on the sofa and was a little taller than him, with a puzzled expression on his face:
“I have a question.”
“But there’s no harm in talking!”
Shen Miaomiao stretched out her hand to signal Gu Sheng to come and listen.
He saw Gu Sheng smacking his lips and said, "Ding Xiu dares to say this to junior brother because Ding Xiu can beat junior brother..."
Speaking of which!
Gu Sheng looked at Shen Miaomiao:
“How dare you...?”
Why?
Shen Miaomiao's smile suddenly froze on her face!
Immediately afterwards, the pupils shrank suddenly!
“No! I’m making trouble with you... Ouch!”
A cry of surprise!
Shen Miaomiao felt her body light up, her whole body slumped, and she was directly picked up by Gu Sheng, and was thrown onto the sofa with a pop!
Immediately afterwards, Shen Miaomiao felt her ankles tighten, and her feet were directly caught in Gu Sheng's hand. The strange itch caused by the fingers scratching across the soles of her feet hit her like an electric current, making her cry and laugh, struggling desperately!
Laughter resounded in the living room.
The rent increased from 500 to 1,000, and then from 1,000 to 1,500.
Shen Miaomiao's legs were curled up and she was twisting and struggling on the sofa, laughing and begging for mercy:
"Hahahaha, I was wrong, please spare me... you say! How much do you say! How much does it matter to you!!"
Bang! !
…
Should!
Deserved it!
Gu Sheng really deserves it!
The living room became quiet again, except for the sound of Gu Sheng grinning and gasping for air from time to time.
The panda eye of Gu Sheng had just disappeared, and now he was holding up the other panda eye, receiving medicine and care from Little Nezha.
Gu Sheng wanted to slap himself in the face.
Why do you owe so much?
There must be a fuss! There has to be a fuss!
Knowing that little Nezha’s feet were sensitive, he still scratched and tickled them.
The rabbit kicks off the eagle and gets hit again.
Are you happy? Lost your temper?
Have you got to look at houses with panda eyes tomorrow?
“I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean to do this...”
Beside, Shen Miaomiao took the cotton swab back with an apology on her face:
“This…I really can’t control it…”
"well-"
Gu Sheng sighed, touched his eye sockets, and grinned in pain:
“Two thousand.”
“Alright, alright, alright!”
Shen Miaomiao nodded repeatedly:
"Two thousand is two thousand. Tomorrow I will be your driver and pick you up and drop off the house to show my apology."
"Um…"
Little Nezha’s sincere attitude made Gu Sheng quite satisfied:
“But you are indeed a little excited today.”
He was rubbing his feet, pretending to cry, and making fun of her in front of his face. He was so naughty.
“Because… I’m in a good mood today,”
Shen Miaomiao grinned:
“You are going to have your own nest, I am happy for you.”
Of course she is in a good mood!
I want to buy a house with Lao Gu! They want to move to a bigger house and continue to share the house! And it's them... always looking after their own home!
The wonderful life is right in front of you, and excitement is natural!
Of course!
In addition, there is one more thing -
Shen Miaomiao looked at the time:
“Stop cooking, order takeout, and check out the first-week sales of “Plants vs. Zombies” at eight o’clock.”
“Hey, there’s nothing to see. Just read the report tomorrow.”
Gu Sheng didn’t seem to care that much, or he seemed to have already expected the sales volume of PVZ:
“Indispensable.”
“Are you the real or fake you?”
“How can you be so sure?”
“Because we are logging in on dual platforms,”
Gu Sheng spread his hand: "The PC community itself is huge. If we just look at sales, the results of several of our games released for PC are very high. The single-week sales of To the Moon can even surpass five Titanfalls,"
“And this time we also logged into the mobile phone,”
“Do you know how many smartphones there were in the world as of last year, according to US SAE statistics?”
Shen Miaomiao suddenly smelled an unknown aura: "How much?"
Gu Sheng held out four fingers: "Four billion, that is to say, half of the world's population owns a smartphone."
“Of course,”
Speaking of this, Gu Sheng also explained:
“This statistic is very rough and does not rule out the situation where one user owns several mobile phones,”
“But even so, the number of smartphone users worldwide is still an astronomical figure,”
“For us, this is a big pool with no edges,”
“And in this vast market, our greatest potential will be discovered,”
“I have confidence in PVZ, so I don’t think we need to worry about its first-week sales at all.”
——! !
Hear the words!
Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but take a breath of cold air!
Let me just say goodbye...
Hearing what Lao Gu said, why do I feel that 750,000 units in 12 days is a bit unstoppable?
Don’t say 12 days.
Even if you don’t add days and just keep the settlement time of the document at the original level of 7 days, it seems that the sales volume of Plants vs. Zombies cannot be stopped at 750,000 sets?
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao trembled in her heart:
“Then guess...how many sales of Plants vs. Zombies will there be?”
“emmmmmmm…hard to say,”
Gu Sheng thought for a while and shrugged:
“But there must be a million copies facing up.”
“One million? A week? Is that an exaggeration?”
Shen Miaomiao grinned:
“We went to the moon and spent so much publicity and official websites to only reach 1.7 million sets!”
"yes!"
Gu Sheng nodded as he should:
“It’s because we can go to the moon and sell 1.7 million units in the first week that I judge that Plants vs. Zombies will not be less than 1 million units!”
Gu Sheng is a game designer after all, and his understanding of the market is much more thorough than that of Xiao Nezha.
What kind of game is Go to the Moon?
Pixel style story-oriented game.
It is better to say it is a game animation than a game.
Is the plot good? Really good, invincible.
But it is precisely to highlight its plot that the mechanics, operation, gameplay, etc. of this game have all been weakened.
The game is definitely a great game that has never been seen before.
But whether in terms of overall experience or audience scope, going to the moon is far inferior to Plants vs. Zombies.
Because Going to the Moon is a well-deserved work of art, and Plants vs. Zombies is a leisure product suitable for all ages.
The market for art must not be as good as leisure goods.
And now.
Although Go to the Moon has support from all parties, the BUFF is full, and 1.7 million units were sold in a single week.
But Plants vs. Zombies also has its own mobile channel, with global sales exceeding one million. In Gu Sheng’s opinion, it shouldn’t be a difficult thing.
…
Time flies by!
In a short while!
The takeaway ordered by Shen Miaomiao has arrived.
The two of them rested for a while after dinner and played two simple games of checkers.
Hum—
Hum—
As Shen Miaomiao's cell phone rang, the two of them looked at the wall clock at the same time.
“Hurry, hurry, hurry! It’s almost eight o’clock!”
Shen Miaomiao stood up in a flash, put away the chessboard, jumped onto the sofa, and squatted down like a little puppy, with eyes filled with anticipation.
Although Lao Gu’s analysis sounds quite reasonable!
But as a gambling dog, Shen Miaomiao's mentality is always 'as long as I don't see the final result, I have hope of making a comeback'.
Why it is said that "there is no winner in long-term gambling"? It is because of this fatal mentality.
Gamblers will feel that the next one will be more profitable if they make money, and if they lose, they will feel that the next one will definitely get back their money.
If they lose a ticket, they lose a car, if they lose a car, they lose a house, if they lose a house, they lose their wife and children. They won't cry until they see the coffin, and they even dare to place another bet after seeing the coffin.
Shen Miaomiao still had a glimmer of hope in Kui after all.
“Come on, come on! I’m ready!”
Shen Miaomiao took a good posture and stared at the large projection screen.
“I really don’t understand why you are so excited…”
Seeing this, Gu Sheng shook his head, chuckled, took the mouse, opened the official website of Huayue Electronics, and entered the data background.
Cleared his throat!
Gu Sheng cooperated with Little Nezha: "Hang! Are you ready?"
"Uh-huh!"
Shen Miaomiao nodded heavily!
“Three! Two! One!”
At eight o'clock sharp, Gu Sheng clicked the mouse on time, entered the background, and opened the sales data of "Plants vs. Zombies"!
Click!
Web page refreshed!
The game’s sales data page pops up immediately!
Shen Miaomiao raised her eyes and glanced!
I couldn’t help but feel a little thump in my heart!
Sixth beginning.
Bad dish.
Obviously!
Although the sales of Plants vs. Zombies did not exceed one million units in a single week as Lao Gu said.
But the beginning of the number ‘6’ is enough to kill the game!
Why-!
Shen Miaomiao sighed in her heart!
Lao Gu is right. The coverage of PC itself is large, and with the addition of mobile phone platforms, the market is really too big.
Moreover, judging from the performance of Xiao Yiyi and Lao Shen, the popularity of this game is indeed high.
Although Shen Miaomiao was a little disappointed with this result, she was not too depressed.
after all!
This is the master document! If you make money on the master document, you will make money! After that, the sub-projects will just have to work harder to achieve losses!
The only regret is that I had hoped to lose money and adjusted the rebate rate to 15 times. I knew I should have directly increased it to 100 times.
Thinking of this, Shen Miaomiao sighed softly:
“It’s quite a lot. Although it’s less than one million, there are still more than 600,000 sets.”
“A total of six hundred and ninety-two thousand, seven hundred and seventy-two-nine…huh?”
Not finished reading.
Shen Miaomiao was stunned.
Pronounced it wrong?
For a moment, Shen Miaomiao did not react and read out the group of numbers again:
“Six hundred and ninety thousand, two thousand, seven hundred, seventy-two...nine?”
“Ah? Why is there one more person?”
A moment!
There was a brief silence in the living room.
The next second, Gu Sheng’s slightly startled voice was heard, faintly:
“If… I mean if…”
“If you think that string of numbers has one more digit, can you try... moving the unit forward one digit?”
A moment of dead silence!
In the living room where the sound of a needle drop could be heard, Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao turned their stiff necks at the same time and glanced at each other. They saw the stunned opponent in each other's pupils.
Gulu!
Shen Miaomiao swallowed:
"you mean…"
Gu Sheng nodded:
“It’s not 690,000, but...”
“Six million nine hundred and twenty-seven thousand seven hundred and twenty-nine sets!”
Single week!
worldwide!
Seven million sets! !
