The person in charge of the merger of the two teams was called Lin Kun. He was the founder of the Heavenly Fairy.
After Abbe came out to disrupt the situation, he recruited Abbe's people, which was equivalent to giving a share of the rice in the pot to Abbe's people. However, because Abbe's cheat had gathered a lot of popularity during the free period, everyone unanimously decided to promote Abbe's cheat.
Lin Kun thought that after the two teams merged, there wouldn't be any real competitors in the market, but what the hell was this Stone Daddy that suddenly appeared?
Lin Kun's phone had been ringing non-stop since morning.
In this era where cell phones were charged two-way and it cost 60 cents a minute to answer a call, Lin Kun's heart was bleeding.
Moreover, every call was from his agent.
Agents were usually divided into provinces. Abbe would find an agent in each province, and he would be responsible for the expansion of the Internet cafes in the cities and counties of the province. The sales terminal of Abbe would be the countless Internet cafes below.
Now, many people who bought the Abbe cheat in the Internet cafe went to the Internet cafe to ask for a refund. The reason was very simple-it was too much of a scam. After buying it for a few days, there was a more powerful function online, and it was a free download. Who could accept this?
Although the customers who requested a refund were unreasonable, this kind of thing could easily make people indignant. The users who spent money had nowhere to vent their anger, and they couldn't find Lin Kun and the others. They could only go to the Internet cafe that sold them the cheat.
The owner of the internet cafe was only selling cheats as a side business. His real main business was still the netizen players who visited him every day. If he offended these people, what would happen to his business?
The owner of the internet cafe immediately went to the agent to protest. The agent couldn't bear the pressure of so many internet cafes. He went to Lin Kun and made a request to refund the customers who hadn't expired.
Some agents even suggested a seemingly fair refund plan for Lin Kun. Fifteen cents a month, fifty cents a day. As for the number of days left by the customer, they would calculate it at fifty cents a day and return it to the customer.
Lin Kun really wanted to refuse, but he couldn't because his current marketing model was very unhealthy. What he said didn't count at all.
He was in charge of the development of the plug-in and was responsible for the distribution of the monthly SIM number. The SIM number was distributed to the provincial agents, who then distributed it to the major Internet cafes below.
Since the sales terminal had sunk all the way to the Internet cafe, and the Internet cafe selling cheats was only a side business, they were not willing to pay the higher-level agent in advance. The cash flow of the cheats was exactly the same as the order of the distribution of the SIM number.
The funds were collected from the Internet cafe and settled once a month for the agent. After the agent received the money from the internet cafe, he would pay Lin Kun monthly.
The owner of the internet café had to guarantee a profit of three to five yuan for every copy of the SIM number sold. Otherwise, if an internet café sold dozens or hundreds of copies in a month, they wouldn't even bother to worry about it if they had too little money.
To sell, record, and transfer money to the higher-level agent, he could only earn three to five hundred yuan a month, which was just enough for the salary of a network manager.
After all, there were only a few dozen computers in an internet cafe. How many customers could there be in a month? Moreover, among these customers, there were people who came to chat, people who came to play single-player games, and a small number of people who played the Stone Age. Among this small number of people, only a relatively small number of people would spend money to buy cheats.
As a result, the provincial agent would have to deduct three yuan for each SIM card. The provincial agent was also worried. They had to send people to each Internet cafe one by one. The cost was not low, and it took a lot of effort.
After layers of exploitation, Lin Kun only had eight yuan at most for each piece. There was also a lot of cost expenditure in this eight yuan…rent, equipment, servers, and other expenses had to be included. The monthly salary of several technicians was several thousand yuan, and the cost of this alone was 30,000 to 20,000 yuan.
This was not even counting the amount of food that so many people had to eat.
In the team, there were also key members who occupied the shares. These people had to get a lot of shares every month. In this way, Lin Kun could get even less.
Looking back, Lin Kun could not help but agree to the seller's request for a refund. The money sold this month was all in the hands of the Internet Cafe. If the Internet Cafe refused to hand over this month's money, the provincial government would not be able to do anything.
Lin Kun gritted his teeth in anger." Alright, we can refund you, but you have to give us a summary of all the accounts after the refund. We'll block all of them."”
The dealers ignored him. They were smart enough to realize that the popularity of this Daddy Stone was likely to destroy Abbe's cheat. They might not have the chance to work with Abbe in the future.
Lin Kun's face turned green after answering the phone for more than an hour. The seven or eight people in the studio also looked dejected. These were all technical staff who had learned some programming, but their skills were honestly very average.
They could tell at a glance that there was a huge gap between them and the other party. They tried to uncompile it, but the result was only a bunch of garbled code. It also activated a script that would start to format the drive letter of the computer, and the data on one of the computers would be wiped clean.
"Boss, what should we do?"
Lin Kun played the role of the boss in this cheat team. The distribution company was in his hands, and everyone had to rely on him to make money.
Lin Kun's expression was extremely ugly." The distribution is very stubborn. They insist on refunding the customers. It seems that we won't be able to get the money for July at all."”
"That's hundreds of thousands!"
They had calculated the sales volume. Excluding the profits given to the distribution companies and the layers of distribution, the studio had already earned more than 600,000 yuan. If they couldn't get it back, it would really be %$#*…
"Boss, what should we do? There's no way to crack it, we can't find the location of the server. I've scanned the data transmission port, and after going through the jumps, I only found a chicken. If I continue searching, it'll still be a chicken. I don't know how many jumps the other party added…Moreover, I can't guarantee that I'll find the real server in the end.”
" Sooner or later, they'll still have to charge. By then, the number of paying users will definitely drop sharply..."
"So what if the number of paying users has decreased? As long as he doesn't set the price to more than 15 yuan, he'll be able to steal all our users.”Lin Kun rolled his eyes and said sternly.
"Then let's lower the price to ten yuan.”
