Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Xu Hu personally experienced the second and third samples.

They all passed in one go.

Li Shi could not help but raise his thumb. "Boss Xu, not bad! You haven't aged at all!"

Xu Hu sniggered. "I'm also a gold medal trainer in my own driving school. How can something like second and third subject stump me?"

"However, Boss Li, this simulator is indeed different. It's completely different from the ones I bought. I fell for a huge trap!"

The obvious difference between the two simulators could be seen from their appearance.

The simulators that Xu Hu had purchased previously looked ugly. It was easy to associate them with the huge-headed computer monitors at the beginning. It was obvious that they were filled with compromise and age.

On the other hand, the Safe and Civilized Driving Simulator, whether it was the three monitors, the squarish steering base, the steering wheel that was similar to the hand sensitivity of the sports car, or the all-metal feet and joysticks… All of them had a new feeling and a sense of technology.

This was not a product of the same era!

The difference after truly mastering it was even greater.

Xu Hu said, "I had many opinions on the simulators that we bought at the driving school previously!"

"There's no help for the steering wheel. There's only a belt movement inside. At most, it can be restored to its original position. It can't do anything else. The pedals are loose and without any strength. The partition rod is often broken. It's very easy to relax. There's no feeling of hanging. It's fine if the seat doesn't have GL. The key is that the software of the simulator is not doing well. It looks even worse than the game more than ten years ago!"

"I wanted the manufacturer to change it. The manufacturer said that it was impossible. That was the most they could do. It would be too much and troublesome to change it."

"I thought it was because of technical reasons that it could only be done to this extent. I went online to look at the other driving examination simulators. They were about the same level, so I could only let it go."

"Now, I know. It's not because the investment is huge and it's too troublesome. They are just not willing to spend this money. They are not willing to sell the machines at all!"

Li Shi smiled. "Boss Xu, I think you've wronged them."

"They might not be capable enough."

"Those who make these simulators are small teams. What good products can they make?"

"Can they order in large quantities and lower the price of the supply chain? Can they hire professional designers to design products? Can they analyze the driving simulators in the market and give the best solutions? Can they have a group of top game designers like Tengda to make a game with exquisite graphics and realistic physical engines?"

"Obviously not!"

"How can these small teams compare to Tengda? They are all small workshops. Tengda is a regular army. Any scene would be a dimensional reduction attack!"

"Actually, everything on this simulator can be produced domestically, but the question is whether or not you have the ability to integrate all of these things and use a lot of money to mass produce them. You can use your strong right to make suppliers and factory manufacturers what you want. You can also develop the corresponding software to perfectly show the strength of the entire hardware."

"Take the feedback and vibration of the simulator. These have to be coordinated with the game content!"

"At the moment, Tengda is the only one with this equipment and game. Some of the top driving simulators overseas naturally have powerful feedback and vibration feedback. However, the problem is that they are all driving racing simulators. Even if the service is in reality, they are specially developed for racing drivers. There is no driver's license examination function."

"Therefore, in the short term, there will probably not be any new products that surpass this equipment in two years!"

Xu Hu was elated. He asked, "Then the after-sales problem…"

Li Shi smiled. "Don't worry about the after-sales problem. Tengda's after-sales service has always been of the highest standards! Now, Tengda's Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and Upwind Logistics are already all over many cities in the country. It's very convenient for repairing customers and changing new branches for free."

"The most important thing is that the game 'Safe and Civilized Driving' will continue to release new content in the future. For example, new car models and exclusive driver examination rules in various places…"

Xu Hu's eyes lit up. "Eh? That's good!"

Previously, Xu Hu's biggest headache was that the contents of the simulator were different from reality.

Of course, this was not entirely the fault of the simulator. That was because the examination content and examination methods across the country would indeed be slightly different.

There was no need to talk about subjects one and four. They were all doing questions. The question bank was the same.

However, there might be huge differences in the second and third subjects in different cities. This was a historical problem.

In some cities, the equipment was very advanced, and the examination content was very backward. For example, if they could drive the entire electronic system without any safety personnel on the car, they would have to rely on the students to drive the car back to the finish line. However, they did not require time. Apart from having to complete a speed reduction operation, it would not be a problem for them to slow down the entire process and complete the turtle climbing process. In some cities, they would require them to run quickly. Three was the bottom line. It was normal for four to five cars to run to sixty to seventy.

Including the order of the subjects in subject two, there were even differences in the new and old venues in the same city. Most of the examination venues were in the first project, but some were in the last project.

For a chain driving school like Heng Yuan Driving School, they had to understand the local examination rules in advance when opening a driving school in a new city. Whether it was the new examination venue or the designated teaching standards, they had to be appropriate for the land and follow the local objective conditions.

However, it was impossible for the simulator manufacturer to make it so specific. They could only make it according to the local driving examination rules or the main city driving examination rules.

Xu Hu could only make do with it. The students would train their car, which was also psychological training.

However, 'Safe and Civilized Driving' was different. It could completely follow the different driver examination rules in various places. It could also make minor adjustments to the driver examination in the game and release the versions of the various cities. At that time, players would only have to choose the corresponding cities after entering or determine their location based on the IP. Then, they would naturally follow the local rules.

That would be more conducive to the connection between the simulator and the real driving examination!

Xu Hu immediately decided. "That's great! Tengda's equipment is definitely trustworthy! That's it!"

"Let me calculate how many units we need."

"At the moment, our group has more than a thousand trainers. There are nearly two hundred in the shop and training ground. One to two in the shop; more than ten in the training ground."

"In that case… let's order 1,000 units!"

"Two hundred of them are luxury versions with G force seat. They are specially placed in the shop for recruitment. The other 800 units can be bought in ordinary versions and are placed in various training grounds for students."

"Do you have enough inventory?"

Li Shi smiled. "inventory? Don't worry, I've asked Vice-President Chang of Otto Technologies. The inventory is definitely complete!"

"Tengda has always been a inventory freak. Take this Safe and Civilized Driving Simulator for example. There are stocks in the warehouses in all the major cities in the country. There's no need to talk about Jingzhou's local stocks. Several large warehouses are already filled!"

"Send the money immediately!"

"I'll give you Otto Technologies' Vice-President Chang's contact details now."

Li Shi patted his chest, looking like the spokesperson of Safe and Civilized Driving Simulator.

After pushing the contact details, Li Shi suddenly thought of something and added, "Oh, that's right. Vice-President Chang is still suffering on the deserted island. He will only be back at the end of the month. I'll give you the contact of the person in charge of the driving simulator business in Otto Technologies. Look for him first. I'll introduce him to you when Vice-President Chang returns."

Xu Hu was confused.

Good lord, are you still suffering on the deserted island?

Tengda was a strange company. Was work more important or suffering more important?

However, Xu Hu was too embarrassed to ask more. He stood up and shook Li Shi's hand warmly. "Thank you! Thank you so much! I'm still out of news. If you had not specially informed me, Boss Li, I would not have known that technology has developed to such a level and that it has such useful things!"

As the boss of the driving school, Xu Hu had many things to do. Thus, he did not pay attention to the gaming circle.

Safe and Civilized Driving was only more popular in the gaming circle at the moment. It had not yet become so influential in reality. Thus, it was normal for him not to know.

Of course, he would know about this sooner or later as' Safe and Civilized Driving 'became popular in reality. However, that would be too late. He would not be able to make it in time.

If he could know, other driving schools would naturally know as well.

What advantage would he have then?

Now, the earlier they bought a safe and civilized driving simulator, the earlier they would be able to make a name for themselves. That would better attract the main group of driving school students: young people.

Xu Hu said, "Boss Li, you've done me such a huge favor. I really don't have any thanks. If you need any help in the future, just tell me. I won't hesitate to help!"

Li Shi smiled. "Boss Xu, let's be honest. I do have a request."

"I heard that Hengda Games is seeking to be listed? I haven't heard any follow-up news, but with the current size of Hengda Games, it's only a matter of time before they approve the application. I intend to pull strings and let Fu Hui Investments and Tengda's Dream Realization Ventures invest a sum of money together. Let's make a fortune together, how about that?"

"Once it's listed, Hengda Games will have sufficient funds to open more branches in various cities in the country. Otto Technologies will naturally prioritize the supply and post-production of driving simulators."

"For the students of the faraway driving school, they can use better simulators. For us, wouldn't it be good to make money together?"

Xu Hu was elated. "Sure!"

If any other investor had said that he wanted to invest, Xu Hu would probably have rejected him on the spot.

What a joke. My company is about to be listed. Do I need you to invest?

What's wrong? You saw that I was about to be listed and came to this hypocritical place to earn a sum of money. Once I'm listed, you can sell the shares and cash out. You don't have to take any risks and just pick fruits. Do you think I'm stupid?

That was not the way to fleece!

However, Li Shi's suggestion made it difficult for Xu Hu to reject.

On one hand, it was because Li Shi was a middleman. He had the effect of connecting the dots and introducing Tengda's Dream Realization Ventures into the game. Fu Hui Investments and Dream Realization Ventures investing together was equivalent to pulling Tengda's long-range driving school into it. This certification identity was very important because it would directly affect the views of young people.

On the other hand, Li Shi and Dream Realization Ventures were obviously not here to pick fruits. They were optimistic about the performance of Hengyuan driving school after it was listed. They definitely planned to hold these shares for a long time.

There was no problem since it was a three wins!
