Lu Yatong is very efficient in her work.

The next morning, a new contract was drafted and sent to subordinates who were preparing to sign the contract with the OEM factory, asking them to change their negotiation ideas and strive to get the new contract.

The front-end staff immediately took the new contract to communicate with the OEM manufacturer. It was the first time for the OEM manufacturer to encounter such a thing. The buyer was afraid that he would not sell the products, so he had to sign an order agreement in advance and pay a deposit. If he did not sell the products, he would demand ten times the compensation.

Nonsense, only a fool wouldn’t sell it. I wish I could sell more!

The mp3 market is ever-changing, with a mix of domestic and foreign brands, and even more domestic brands without brands or with small brands, so this industry is changing rapidly. There are many companies that have launched mp3s, but for these companies, their core industries are not mp3s, so they are very cautious about mp3s. At present, the longest mp3 orders from OEM factories are only three months from now, and orders after three months have not been settled yet. For example, orders for the fourth month may not be received until next month or even the month after next.

Because of this reason, OEM manufacturers are also worried about future orders for MP3 production lines. It would be strange if they did not agree to the contract because it is the first time they have met someone who is willing to sign a one-year agreement.

In one day, the front-end staff signed contracts with two OEM manufacturers. The Taiwan OEM manufacturer signed a contract for 105 million units, while the Shenzhen OEM manufacturer directly signed a contract for 160 million units.

However, the situations of the two companies are similar. In the first three months, the Taiwanese OEM manufacturers can only provide a maximum of 150,000 production capacity to Wangwa Technology, but starting from the fourth month, the production capacity can be increased to 100,000 units per month in the next nine months; the Shenzhen OEM manufacturers can only provide a maximum of 250,000 units of production capacity in the first three months, and the production capacity can be increased to 150,000 units per month in the next nine months.

To this end, Wangwa Technology needs to pay 30% of the payment for the first 10 units, and at the same time, pay a one-time deposit of yuan per unit for all intended orders, which is no more than million yuan, which Zhou Hao can afford.

But spending more than 20 million is equivalent to buying insurance for yourself. If the OEM manufacturer wants to terminate the cooperation due to pressure, it must carefully consider whether it can afford the compensation. This is a total of more than 200 million yuan in liquidated damages, which is basically unaffordable for OEM manufacturers with meager profits.

This is exactly the effect Zhou Hao wanted. He first paid the other party to make a condom and let the other party wear it willingly. Unless something unexpected happens, Zhou Hao will never tighten the rope. But once the other party wants to break free, the condom will cost them their lives.

The factory signed the contract, Wangwa Technology paid the money as agreed, and the two OEM factories immediately prepared to start production.

A few days ago, Zhou Hao racked his brains for the name of the hardware brand. He thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a suitable name. Later, when he was about to sign the contract, he decided to pursue a catchy name like Apple, so he created a hardware brand trademark as a joke: lychee. Zhou Hao was thinking at the time that maybe in the future when people mentioned fruit machines, they would not refer to apples, but lychees.

The Apple logo is an apple with a bite taken out of it, but Zhou Hao did not use the image of a lychee as the logo for his own brand. Instead, he used an artistic English word "lychee" as the brand logo. The font is a bit similar to Philip and Nokia, but it uses the bright red color of the lychee, which looks very classy.

The first hardware product of the Lychee brand is the MP3 that is about to be produced, and Zhou Hao is absolutely sure that it will be a hit.

After dealing with the OEM manufacturer, Zhou Hao also made a special trip to Taobao's workplace to meet with Liu Qiangdong and Cao Tianlei.

Zhou Hao told the two that he had signed a contract to manufacture MP3 players, and at the same time put forward requirements for the Taobao launch: "It will be launched on June 6, and the customized MP6 sales will be launched on the same day."

Cao Tianlei said without hesitation: "It's no problem to launch it on June 6th. If we work harder, it's not impossible to launch it on the 6st."

Zhou Hao waved his hand: "No need to rush, let's just do it on June 6th."

Cao Tianlei nodded. Liu Qiangdong wanted to ask Zhou Hao why he chose this time point, but he resisted the urge to ask.

As for why Zhou Hao chose to go online on June 6, it’s actually very simple, that day was his birthday.

After all, I want to give myself a birthday gift that is a little different, and the one on Taobao is enough.

Liu Qiangdong asked Zhou Hao: "If we communicate with small sellers on eBay or other platforms in advance, then we may be exposed in advance, is that okay?"

Zhou Hao said: "Of course, Taobao can be exposed in advance, but other things cannot. For example, in the future, Taobao will be directed by Haobo Technology, Alipay will provide online payment channels, and Wangwa.com will exclusively sell customized mp3s... If these are not exposed, Taobao will actually be a baby waiting to be paved in the eyes of others, and no one will look at it seriously."

Liu Qiangdong said: "I understand. Then I have nothing to worry about."

Zhou Hao said: "I'll leave all the things before the launch to you. I'm really too busy recently and can't spare the time."

Liu Qiangdong asked: "Hasn't your PP game lobby been online for several days? I see that it is developing very fast. Why don't you take a break while Taobao is not online?"

Zhou Hao said: "I also have Jufeng Entertainment, and Miracle MU will be charging soon!"

Liu Qiangdong then remembered that Zhou Hao was still working on games outside. He shook his head and sighed, "Comparison is frustrating. Can the revenue of your game surpass that of Legend this year?"

Zhou Hao thought about it and said, "We will be able to do it in two months."

……

Zhou Hao had just finished the work at hand and hadn't had a good rest yet, as "Miracle MU" was about to become charged.

Fortunately, there is nothing for Zhou Hao to do this time. He has already finished what he needed to do. The rest depends on how the market responds to "Miracle MU".

Since the internal beta test of "Miracle MU", Zhou Hao has been organizing activities on Tieba to promote it. During the public beta test, this game attracted a large number of players with its beautiful 2.5D graphics, huge world structure, and professional skill system. Zhou Hao has already prepared for it and is just waiting for the day when it will be charged.

However, although "Miracle MU" avoided charging on the day the PP game was launched, it was still affected by the PP game on the day of charging because it was only five days late and the PP National Landlord Competition was still ongoing.

Normally, the daily active players of "Miracle MU" are around 300 million, and the number of online players during peak hours is around 80. But since the launch of the PP game, this number has dropped by 3%, and the average online time of players has also dropped by 10%. However, Zhou Hao understands that the decline in the average online time is because players have divided part of their time into the Landlord Competition. The daily active players and peak online players have only dropped by %, which is acceptable to Zhou Hao.

On the day when "Miracle MU" officially started charging, 280 million people logged into the game and 120 million people bought point cards. The price of Miracle's point cards is the same as that of Legend, 35 yuan for 120 hours, or 35 yuan for a monthly package with no time limit. In addition, you can also choose 20 yuan for 60 hours, or 20 yuan for fifteen days. If you use Alipay to purchase, you can enjoy a 95% discount and have the opportunity to get random time gifts. For example: if you buy a 35 yuan point card, you have the opportunity to get 1-10 hours of extra gifts. If you buy a 35 yuan monthly card, you have the opportunity to get 1-3 days of extra gifts. There is no random gift for the 20 yuan tier.

Therefore, among the 120 million people who bought point cards on the first day, nearly 80 used Alipay to make the purchase, and 90% purchased point cards in the 35 yuan range. The rest basically came from sales in Internet cafes.

In just one day, the revenue of "Miracle MU" exceeded 35 million.

It is conservatively estimated that out of the tens of millions of players in this game, two million will become paying players, and the login interval of loyal players is no more than three days. Therefore, two million paying players can bring in at least fifty or sixty million in revenue. As for how many paying players there will be in total, Zhou Hao is not sure. If he is lucky, if the subsequent operations can cater to the psychology of the players, or if Legend remains indifferent to plug-ins, then it is not impossible for the number of paying players to exceed three million.

Since most of the revenue comes from Alipay, Zhou Hao saved a lot of point card sales channel fees and also increased actual profits.

Zhou Hao was very excited when he got this data. If it was just about money, today was definitely the most exciting day since his rebirth, because he had earned tens of millions today. Unlike Haobo Technology, 60% of this money was completely at his disposal, so he could spend it at any time, and as long as he paid taxes, it could be transferred directly to his personal card.

After starting a business for so long, Zhou Hao finally dared to shout out: "I'm never short of money again!"

After "Miracle MU" was launched, he was finally able to make a phone call to Ye Shao, "Old Ye, when will our racetrack be launched? Please set a date so that I can invest money in it!"

Ye Shao laughed loudly on the phone and said, "The Italian design team is about to come up with a design plan and drawings. Once the plan and drawings are out, we can start immediately. By the way, has Song Linhui's real estate company in Beijing been registered?"

Zhou Hao said: "I have registered a long time ago and am just waiting to practice with this project."

Ye Shao said: "I have also agreed with Chen Lan that she will return to China next month and start working on the club. If you still need her to help you with something in Mei Country, you have to do it as soon as possible."

When Zhou Hao thought about Facebook and all its domain names, he realized that he had them in his hands and the US company had also been registered. He didn't have to worry about anything now and just had to wait to fool Mark Zuckerberg.

So Zhou Hao smiled and said to Ye Shao: "I really don't need her help with anything, so hurry up and get her back to accompany you!"
