The promotion of Three Kingdoms Online is overwhelming. This time, in addition to using QQ and game platforms for promotion, Cao Yang has used the most effective promotion method of this era-

A strong ground promotion team.

Large Internet cafes in first-tier cities are fully covered, and at least one or two Bomi staff teach step by step.

Second, third, fourth and fifth-tier cities mainly cover the largest Internet cafes, and Internet cafe staff are used to promote and teach.

And give each Internet cafe certain benefits, such as wholesale of card cards, which can be cheaper.

A point card worth 15 yuan per card is 13 yuan for Internet cafes, or even as low as 11 yuan.

Therefore, before the official launch of the Three Kingdoms Online, most of the Internet cafes across the country had already installed the game early.

The Three Kingdoms Online CD was also pre-sale for one week in advance.

...

As a loyal fan of Bomi, high school student Zhao Xucheng immediately went to a software store near the school after school.

When he saw the poster at the door, he was slightly stunned.

Because the poster of Three Kingdoms Online is too big.

Especially the female characters on the top who wear silver armor, revealing their figure undoubtedly.

With bright red background, there is a battlefield filled with smoke in the distance.

Countless enemies serve as background boards, setting off the fierceness of the war.

The young general in front, a line of blood climbed down his face from his forehead, his eyes were extremely firm, he held the sword in both hands and charged forward.

And beside him was a female general who was fighting bloody.

There were two protagonists floating in the air behind, holding staff and bows and arrows.

The communication of the entire poster is very clear and three-dimensional, revealing the selling points and attracting points of the game.

At the bottom is a line of big words:

[Three Kingdoms Online, the public beta will be launched on July 28!]

【Bloody battle, thousands of people fighting, waiting for you!】

Damn...

Although Zhao Xucheng was quite shocked inside, his face was not very good.

Damn Bomi, he is not doing his job properly. He doesn't want to develop the good Honor of Kings 2. What kind of online games are they learning?

It's really a ghost.

To this day, Zhao Xucheng is still worried about Bomi's vote-lapse incident.

At first, I had expectations for Bomi, thinking that this is a company with principles and dreams. Like the great Blizzard, in order to pursue the quality of the game, I did not hesitate to withstand the strong pressure of the market and did not make a fortune.

For this reason, Zhao Xucheng also made a theories with those players who criticized Bomi for failing to vote online, and firmly stood on Bomi's side and said good things for them, because in his opinion, what players need most is [quality]

A company that knows how to put quality first and cherishes players is a good game company.

Just didn't expect-

Bomi, Bomi, you have changed!

Zhao Xucheng walked into the software store angrily.

Since it is an online game, the software store does not purchase much of Three Kingdoms online.

The receptionist looked at it and smiled, "Your favorite Bomi Company has released a new game. Look, right on the shelves there. Have you seen it?"

She is already very familiar with this young man.

Zhao Xucheng has to watch it almost every week to see if Bomi has released new games.

After playing with Zhao Yunchuan before, he felt a little unsatisfactory.

However, at least in terms of details and quality, Zhao Yunchuan did not lose Bomi's face, which made its reputation further consolidated.

After playing the new Yuesha Legend of Xishanju a few days ago, Zhao Xucheng has been looking forward to Bomi being able to make better games.

Because there is no harm without comparison, although Zhao Yunchuan is a different type compared to Honor of Kings, there are still differences, especially in the plot.

Compared with the Legend of Moon Shadow, Zhao Xucheng saw the goodness of the Legend of Zhao Yun.

"snort!"

Zhao Xucheng snorted coldly, making the saleswoman confused.

He walked to the shelves and stared at the Three Kingdoms Online's game disc for a long time.

never mind.

Give Bomi a chance.

Although Zhao Xucheng had never played online games, he still picked up a box of Three Kingdoms online from the shelves.

Mainly, as a diehard fan, he has obsessive-compulsive disorder, which is similar to those star-chasing people. If he doesn’t buy all the singer’s records, it will be very uncomfortable.

Even if it was a lump of shit, Zhao Xucheng recognized it.

If the Three Kingdoms Online this time is a piece of shit, then after I finish eating, I will never eat Bomi's shit again.

Zhao Xucheng secretly swore in his heart and walked to the cashier to hand the CD to the sales lady.

"It costs 28 yuan in total, thank you." The young lady said with a smile.

Hey?

Is it so cheap?

Zhao Xucheng just went to look at the cover and didn't notice the sale price.

He looked down and saw that the price of the Three Kingdoms Online game disc was really 28 yuan.

In fact, this is Cao Yang's strategy. According to his idea, it should be sold for 1 yuan, because online games like Three Kingdoms Online do not rely on selling discs to make a living.

However, after Li Lanyun's strong persuasion, he set the price of the CD to 28 yuan.

Much lower than other types of discs.

Li Lanyun mainly thinks that the impact is not good. Even if the online games are priced too low, they will further impact the stand-alone game market. It doesn’t matter if you sell online for 1 yuan on the Three Kingdoms online. The Yueying Legend in Xishanju has just been on the market, so you can’t follow it and you can’t fall to 1 yuan.

There must be room for everything.

Moreover, for the sake of the ecological health of the market, Cao Yang also specially marked the words "Limited Sales" on the price.

In other words, Bomi will reduce the price within a certain reasonable range, but this price reduction is not permanent and will still rise back in the future.

As for how long it will take for this to come, no one knows.

Moreover, indeed, Three Kingdoms Online does not rely on selling certificates to make a living, so the number of software stores is not large, mainly because the consumer is Internet cafe.

...

After returning home, Zhao Xucheng inserted the discs carefully, installed them, and entered the game.

A line of large characters pops up in the screen:

【Dear player, please wait patiently】

【4:21:59 to start the server time】

Damn!

This broken game still has to wait?!

Today is Friday, July 27, 2001, and Bomi is scheduled to open the service at 0:00 a.m. on the 28th.
Chapter completed!
