Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Ye Zhizhou said excitedly, "Previously, I was wondering if gamers could eat so many simulators. I didn't expect Boss Pei to have thought of it long ago. He wants to eat both gamers and driving schools at the same time!"

"A unique game like 'Safe and Civilized Driving' can be said to have completely cleared the two types of racing games and simulated driving games. It also cleared the software and hardware through the simulator package, causing the driving simulator gamers who used the steering wheel to expand greatly."

"However, that alone is obviously not enough. The key is to connect with other industries in reality!"

"Heng Yuan's driving school has already ordered 1,000 simulators from us. I don't know where the other driving schools in the country got the news from. They either ordered them online or contacted us directly and submitted a large number of orders."

"Even some small driving schools are nothing compared to the money spent on buying cars, cars, and venue maintenance. They can also effectively improve the impression that the driving school leaves on students, making the driving school seem very new and professional. Therefore, the sales of the simulators are very good!"

"Even though the Hangzhou driving school is currently the biggest chain of driving schools in the country, it is impossible for them to eat up all of our production capacity. After all, the driving schools in the country are located in various cities. They are quite loose."

"Therefore, Otto Technologies, Boss Li and He Desheng have discussed. They will give the Heng Yuan driving school priority and give some small benefits in the name of official cooperation. However, they will not prohibit other driving schools from buying safe and civilized driving simulators."

"In addition, Star Bird Virtual Games also ate a large number of safe and civilized driving simulators. Otto Technologies also directly supplied them with goods, so that gamers who did not have money or space at home could use similar methods to surf the net to experience Star Bird Games!"

"It's indeed meaningless to be conflicted about the players' territory. Only breaking out of the circle would be true success!"

Ye Zhizhou was very excited because he saw that the future sales route of the safe and civilized driving simulator was simply smooth!

The reason why he knew so much was because Shang Yang Games had to continue updating the content of 'Safe and Civilized Driving'. This included the different driving examination rules of the various cities and some adjustments to the driving school model. They had to be refined in the follow-up game content.

Heng Yuan driving school was the first driving school to purchase a safe and civilized driving simulator on a large scale. This was because Boss Li was the connection.

However, no matter how much Xu Hu tried to hide it, he could not hide this matter. When other driving schools heard this news, they would naturally consider buying a safe and civilized driving simulator.

In fact, Heng Yuan's driving school was not the only driving school that had simulators set up in the training ground. Other driving schools were also facing the same problem as Heng Yuan's driving school. Naturally, they would make the same decision.

Those driving schools that did not have simulators could not sit still anymore.

That was because the simulators set up by other driving schools had been muddled previously. These driving schools did not set up simulators. They could explain to the students that those things did not have much effect.

However, Tengda's simulator was different. It was really useful!

What's more, this simulator was of high quality. It had also attracted widespread attention and extremely high popularity on the internet. If he were to tell his own students that the simulator was useless, he would feel like he could not eat grapes and say that they were sour.

This had quickly become a trend. If he could not keep up, wouldn't he be telling his students that his driving school was out of stock?

There were indeed many students now, but they could not recruit all of them. However, the competition between various driving schools was also getting more intense. They were all racking their brains to find points that were better than other driving schools.

There would be driving schools that earned huge sums of money, and there would naturally be driving schools that would be neglected.

"We have a safe and civilized driving simulator" was a huge gimmick and advantage.

At the very least, he could not turn it into a disadvantage, right?

Therefore, those driving schools that had not bought simulators before also had thoughts about not falling behind.

Even if the venue was limited and they could only buy three or five to fill the gap?

There had to be!

There was no need to talk about a large chain driving school like the Heng Yuan Driving School. Apart from the training ground, there was also a shop. The shop was the most needed to do some face engineering. Setting up a safe and civilized driving simulator was the best face engineering!

Thus, this undercurrent was going on for a long time. It was quickly engulfing the entire country's driving school.

Those third-tier cities or small county driving schools might not be very well-informed. They would be slower, but they would realize this problem sooner or later.

What a huge market this was!

According to the data statistics of the relevant departments, the domestic driver training organization had already broken through 11,000 units last year. It was very likely that they would break through 16,000 units in the next five years. What's more, this was only considered a formal registration. There were also some small driver schools that were even more numerous.

However, even so, the driver training industry could not completely meet the current huge market demand. There were still many driver schools with serious queues.

Driving simulators that cost thousands or tens of thousands of yuan were more expensive for ordinary people. It would not be easy to solve the problem of taking up space. However, what problem would it be for driving schools?

What was this bit of money compared to the cost of purchase, oil, and care of the coach?

What was the size of the simulator compared to the training ground?

It would be an immeasurable huge market even if each driving school only bought two or three units to fill the market.

Pei Qian was stunned.

Would that work?

There was actually a driving school purchase option? And it was a large-scale purchase?

He had miscalculated!

Pei Qian had learned about driver's license in his memory, but that world was very different from this world after all. He was in a small driving school, and there was no need for simulators. As for this world, he would be chauffeured when he went out. Why would he need to learn his own driver's license?

That was why he did not think of this at all!

However, what was done was done. There was no way to change it!

Pei Qian's face was a little green as he watched the forks being busy moving the safe and civilized driving simulator up and down the shelves.

How was this forklift moving goods? It was obviously moving stack after stack of bills!

Here came the problem. Why had he come all the way to the warehouse?

Pei Qian had wanted to see how the storeroom was doing. If all the stocks were already filled up, he could naturally ask Ye Zhizhou to rent more storerooms and continue stocking up.

However, what he saw was a huge problem!

The warehouse was not filled. The goods inside were still moving quickly. There were even signs that there was a shortage of supply. He had to ask the factory to continue increasing production capacity!

What a mess. He had come all the way here to see how lonely it was.

Ye Zhizhou said, "Boss Pei, apart from the driving school, I have something else to ask you in the game."

"At the moment, several domestic manufacturers have taken the initiative to authorize the car's data to us without charging any license fee. Previously, some manufacturers who did not let go of the authorization at all seemed to have loosened their tone. They are no longer so dead about the 'car collision performance'. Perhaps we can fight for it with some money."

"Coincidentally, we have to introduce more car license in the future. This is the trend for all racing games and driving simulators. What do you think…"

Pei Qian was stunned. "Huh? You're giving us the authorization?"

Ye Zhizhou nodded. "That's right. This is obviously because of the previous incident with the Passat."

"Actually, IIS has all of these collision data, but their influence is not that big after all. Apart from car enthusiasts and fanatics, ordinary people would not go to IIS's official website to look at the collision data."

"The manufacturers who came to us basically met in IIS. They are more confident in the collision data of their own cars. That's why they came to us."

"The two domestically-produced electric car brands that we're working with have already gotten the dividends. That's because there were only a few car types that could be chosen when the game was first released. The cars that clashed with outstanding results also formed a sharp contrast with car types like Passat."

"Everyone praised the domestically-produced car model with outstanding results after the test. Objectively, it also brought them popularity and increased their sales."

"What's more, as the safe and civilized driving simulators are being promoted in various driving schools, the gamers are also expanding. This advertising effect is obviously becoming more and more obvious."

"What's more, it's not like reality in the game. In reality, many people can't afford a car that costs hundreds of thousands. However, as long as they save up more in the game, they will be able to afford it. Therefore, there is actually a chance for players to try out the car in various price tiers. This is actually a very good brand output opportunity."

"Of course, there are also some car companies that are not interested in this. Perhaps it is because they are indeed not confident in the results of the collision, or perhaps they are not interested in our game."

"However, there are indeed many car companies, especially domestic car companies, with a stronger tendency to cooperate."

"After all, 'Safe and Civilized Driving' is a little special compared to other racing games. To a certain extent, it can slightly simulate the sense of car and safety. It's equivalent to providing players with free test drive. After testing the car, some players might be interested in a certain brand and affect the sales in reality."

Ye Zhizhou's so-called uniqueness referred to the difference in the driving sense and safety of different cars in Safe and Civilized Driving.

In other games, players would drive different cars. There would be a huge difference in the driving sense, but the difference would not be that big.

For example, top sports cars could drive above 280KM/h. There might be a difference in hand sensitivity and turns, or some cars could drive past 300KM/ h.

However, it was very difficult to affect reality because no one could drive so quickly in reality.
