“Are you still feeling tortured for the driver’s license?”


  “Are you still afraid to train because you’re afraid of being scolded by the coach?”


  “Are you still worrying about the long queue and the inability to master better storage skills?”


  “Are you still worried about losing money if you accidentally hit the coach?”


  “Otto Technologies’ new product, a safe and civilized driving simulator will solve all your problems!”


  After the promotional video finished playing, Chang You’s image appeared again.

  Chang You explained, “After the smart fitness drying rack conference the last time, everyone left us messages. They said that even though they really wanted to see us do the job, they had to take out something really useful.”


  “Therefore, we decided to reflect on our painful experience and brought everyone our new smart product: Safe and Civilized Driving Simulator Set!”


  “This Safe and Civilized Driving Simulator uses the highest-end motor steering wheel. The entire metal slightly moving pedals fully simulate the real feet. It has extremely rich functions!”


  Chang You began to introduce each part of the package.

  Direct steering, scaffolding, seats, liquid pressure hand brakes, pedals, console, GL seats, and so on.

  There were also detailed instructions on the difference and difference between the three types of combo meals.

  “Safe and civilized driving simulator sets allow you to master proficient driving skills even if you don’t step out of your house! Whether it’s people who have never touched cars, people who are working hard to obtain a driver’s license, people who have just obtained a driver’s license but don’t dare to go on the road, or people who have been driving for many years but still want to improve driving skills, they are all your best choices!”


  “Next, we will work hard to cooperate with various driving schools. We will strive to fill all the driving schools in the country with safe and civilized driving simulators to completely eliminate the worries of everyone’s difficulty in learning car!”


  The audience might still be very supportive of him, but once this product was released, it was obvious that no one was very passionate.

  Especially after hearing Chang You say that this simulator set treated the driving school as an important target customer group, more people were not interested in it.

  People were already whispering before the news conference ended.

  “The news conference today was not very good. The first half was quite interesting, especially when I saw Vice-President Chang appear on the island. However, I did not feel anything in the second half.”


  “That’s right. In terms of performance alone, the smart fitness drying rack has reached its peak. It’s indeed very difficult to surpass it. What’s more, the product itself this time is a little too serious. It doesn’t feel like the smart fitness drying rack.”


  “What if we look at this product in a normal style?”


  “The promotional video at the beginning was quite interesting. I didn’t expect learning a driver’s license to be so difficult for many people.”


  “However, no matter what, a simulator is very different from a real car. Can this thing really help a driver’s license? It would definitely not be objective to say that it’s not. However, I think it should be similar to not having it.”


  “I don’t think it’ll work from the perspective of normal products. This price is too expensive. The area it occupies is so big. Ordinary people shouldn’t be able to afford it.”


  “Those who like to play driving simulators will definitely sell it. The foreign direct steering wheel is at least 40% more expensive than this. Some large brands even doubled the price. Otto Technologies has Tengda’s ecosystem. The steering wheel would definitely be sold out.”


  “However, the problem is that this set meal plan is not very good. What’s the use of this console inside? Most current simulated driving games can be done with the buttons on the disc. It’s useless to spend money on this console.”


  “I feel like it’s a little neither here nor there. Normally, they would just buy a large factory’s power return steering wheel. Two to three thousand yuan would be suitable for a game on the main computer. If they really had fanatics, they would definitely have their own direct steering wheel. They can’t possibly buy this after selling it, right? In other words, it would be attractive to some new driving simulators players, but this group is too small.”


  “Indeed, there are so many controllers and keyboards in racing games. Very few people actually use the steering wheel, let alone an entire set of equipment.”


  “Isn’t there a driving school?”


  “That’s even less likely! There are indeed some driving schools that have simulators, but a driving school can only buy a few at most, right? What’s more, the simulators in the driving school are all messed up. The graphics are so small, and the operation is very different from real cars.”


  “To put it bluntly, the simulators in the driving school were purely because they recruited too many students. They could not train the real cars at all. Many students queued for too long in order to train the cars. That was why the driving school thought of such an idea and asked the new students to train the simulators first. On the surface, it was to make it easier for you to get the real cars. In fact, it was a helpless move after compromising. It was to divert the human traffic so that you could have something to do even if you did not have to learn the cars after registering.”


  “We can definitely sell a portion of it to the driving school, as long as this simulator is more useful than other simulators in the market.”


  “That might not be the case. The quality of the other simulators in the market might not be good, but the price to purchase them is low! Your direct steering plan is much more extravagant. Why would the driving school spend so much money if it was just to let the students have something to do? Ordinary small driving schools would definitely not be willing to spend so much money. Only the big driving schools are not lacking in money.”


  It was not only the audience in the live-stream who were discussing.

  The results of everyone’s discussion were about the same. Apart from a few gamers who had been paying attention to the driving simulator field and who had strong requirements for it were elated, most ordinary gamers felt that this had nothing to do with them.

  Most people felt that they could indeed sell a portion of this thing, but the main target audience was simulators players and driving schools. It had nothing to do with ordinary players, and the sales would not be very high.

  Of course, someone also mentioned that Tengda might display traditional skills and create a new game for this equipment.

  After all, the success of the smart fitness drying rack was due to the Fitness Battle.

  However, could a racing game really make a steering wheel that cost nearly 10,000 yuan the highest set meal?

  No one could guarantee that. After all, there had never been such a precedent.

  Many national racing games were popular enough, right? However, that was only the popularity of the games. It was not obvious at all to the outside world. Many people should use keyboards, controllers, or keyboards. They would not specially buy a steering wheel that occupied a space.

  Thus, even though there was a lot of attention on the news conference this time, it did not achieve a very enthusiastic response in the end. Instead, everyone paid more attention to how Chang You was suffering on the deserted island.

  Even many tech media who came to the venue focused on “Chang You held a news conference remotely while suffering” when writing manuscripts and making video planning. They did not pay much attention to the specific products released at the news conference.

  …


  …


  January 10th, Thursday…


  Pei Qian ate his breakfast at Fish-Catching Internet Cafe while scrolling through his cell phone to see if there was any news recently.

  “Eh? Otto Technologies’ new product launch was held yesterday?”


  “Chang You is holding a news conference remotely to perform?”


  “There seems to be a reaction to external products?”


  “Wow!”


  Pei Qian was delighted with his unexpected good fortune.

  He had been worrying about the settlement next month and had not paid much attention to the two games departments and Otto Technologies.

  That was because GOG’s revenue was rising after the international competition. The success of real estate intermediary simulators and roller coasters had given Tengda more avenues to earn money. That made Pei Qian feel pressured.

  Fortunately, Pei Qian had learned his lesson. He had at least three or four different ways to spend money during this cycle.

  However, he had to think carefully about how to use these methods.

  “Previously, I watched every news conference of Otto Technologies. In the end, it became popular. This time, I missed it, and the response was average.”


  “Could it be that… it’s really my problem? Something will happen just by looking at it?”


  “He saw big things at the scene, saw small things in the live-stream, didn’t he?”


  “No, no, no. How is that possible? You can’t use metaphysics.”


  Pei Qian quickly dispelled this thought and carefully read the netizens’ evaluation of Otto Technologies’ new products.

  Some gamers who were passionate about playing with simulators were elated. After all, the direct steering wheel of this price was too fragrant. The price of other parts was also a huge cut compared to foreign brands. On top of that, Otto Technologies had Tengda as its backer. Its quality control, after-sales, and supporting software were not bad. It had become the most delicious product in the field of steering even before the news conference and the products were officially released.

  However, the problem was that this group of players was ultimately relatively small in the entire gamer group.

  Otto Technologies must have followed Boss Pei’s usual instructions: stock as much as possible!

  The more stocks they had, the more they would be placed in the warehouse. Wouldn’t they be able to take up a huge sum of money if they were to sell them very slowly?

  Pei Qian was very happy. It looked like there was still good news.

  He scrolled through the Aili Island website and saw the exclusive promotional page of the ‘Executer Academy’ section.

  Fei Huang Workspace had already discussed with the Aili Island website. It was different from ‘Successor’. The revenue this time was mainly based on the number of views and the length of the broadcast.

  Even though ‘Successor’ had a rather bad reputation, Fei Huang Workspace had worked with Aili Island’s website for a long time after all. What’s more, since ‘Executer Academy’ could ride on GOG, it naturally had a good amount of attention. Thus, Aili Island’s website gave a good share of the profits.

  However, the prerequisite for splitting the profits was that this animation not only had a good reputation, but it also had to be played for a long time. That was obviously impossible.

  The first episode of ‘Executer Academy’ would be broadcasted tomorrow night, but as for the next episode… who knew how many years it would take?

  After all, given Fei Huang Workspace’s animation team’s efficiency and the original word count of ‘Executer Academy’, it would definitely be a lifetime series.

  Pei Qian could even imagine the bullet screen comments after the first episode was released…… It must be filled with ‘short and helpless’!
