Start with the script killing shop

Chapter 437 Sold out



What is the most anticipated board game in October?

It is the Mysterious Magic Academy series.

What is the most popular board game?

It is the Mysterious Magic Academy series.

Which board game store has the hottest business in Peiping?

It's Detective Du's Script Mystery Hall.

As for why the name of the most prosperous board game store is a script-killing store?

Don't ask, just ask if the boss of this script killing shop has something to do with it. She has a monopoly and doesn't follow martial ethics.

Even though he could hear from Jiang Cha every day how prosperous the business of Detective Du's Script Mystery Studio was, when Jiang Qi came to see it with his own eyes again after many days, he had to sigh in his heart.

He really didn't expect that one day he would be able to use the four words "crowded" to describe the business of the script killing shop.

Really crowded.

On a weekday afternoon, when business is theoretically very quiet, the lobby on the first floor of Detective Du's Script Mystery Hall is as lively as a popular nightclub at 12pm, packed with people.

Those who knew it was a script-killing shop, but those who didn’t know it thought it was a cafe with a special discount - who said that these customers who did not play board games crowded in the shop almost all had a cup of coffee?

It was full of people and lively.

The layout of the lobby on the first floor has changed. Du Xiaohui didn't know where she got a few small tables for 6 people. She removed the sofa seating area and put them all on board game tables. There were twelve board game tables in total. A decent board game store.

The whiteboard hanging on the wall has also disappeared, replaced by a small blackboard standing at the entrance of the store, with large characters written in colorful chalk:

Incredible Magic Academy series of board games, play for 4 hours and only charge 88 yuan/person!

The bar in the store is still in the same position, but there is an extra barista behind the bar who specializes in making drinks. It is said that Du Xiaohui hired him from the university town to work part-time.

Sure enough, you can get any kind of part-time job in the university town.

There were too many people in the store, so Jiang Qi stopped squeezing in. Standing at the door, Du Xiaohui grabbed two cups of hot latte with both hands and squeezed out of the store, handing one to Jiang Qi with a smile on her face.

"Boss Jiang, drink coffee."

Jiang Qi took the coffee with a smile, took another look at the booming business in the store, and asked, "What's going on in your store? Is the coffee half price?"

Du Xiaohui smiled innocently, her big white teeth almost showing out: "The exhibition is tomorrow, after all. These are the stores that come to the exhibition to watch the fun."

"Thanks for your help in contacting Qiu Qiufa's little book promotion. There is an endless stream of customers in the store these days. I have almost become an Internet celebrity. The store is open 24 hours a day these days. I can borrow it. All the DMs who came here borrowed them.”

"There are also store owners who have contacted me and asked me if I need help. To be honest, I have been living in a dream these past few days. Sometimes before going to bed at night, I have to pinch myself to see if it is a dream. She’s so beautiful that she’s crazy to want to get rich.”

Faced with Du Xiaohui's sincere words, Jiang Qi couldn't help but laugh, and raised his hand to make a toast: "Then I wish Boss Du that your dream will be more beautiful."

When Jiang Qi said this, Du Xiaohui felt a little embarrassed: "Actually, there were not so many people in the store the past two days. After all, there are so many sets of board games in total, and it is impossible to play only one set in four hours. You borrowed it I have 9 sets, and I can open up to 16 tables at the same time, both upstairs and downstairs. I also have one or two rooms above to lend to others for testing."

Du Xiaohui spoke very modestly, but with 16 tables open at the same time and open 24 hours a day, the turnover itself is a terrible figure.

It is clearly written on the small blackboard at the door, 88 yuan/person, 4 hours per person. Even if Du Xiaohui only receives 4 waves of guests a day, there are 64 tables and 384 guests a day.

88 per person, the table game turnover is 33792 per day.

The daily turnover of Galaxy Script Club during its peak period was almost like this.

Excluding the share and overtime pay given to DM, Du Xiaohui's single-day income is also 5 figures.

What an exciting number.

This is the beauty of monopoly.

As we all know, board games are very popular.

Board games are different from script games. Except for a small number of emotional games, most of the script games are one-time purchases. Once you have played them, you have played them. It is impossible to play them twice.

Board games are different. You want to play them again after you have played them, especially when you are new to a new board game. If you get too good at it, you will really want to spend a few hours every night. If you don't play two games at night, you will feel uncomfortable as if there are ants crawling on your body.

Of course, this kind of disease usually disappears after the novelty wears off. Generally speaking, it can only last for a week or two, and it will return to normal when you get tired of it.

If the Incredible Magic series of board games are now fully available, then this board game will most likely become popular among friends. All board game stores and script-killing stores will post crazily news in the group every day. Players only need to browse their circle of friends, choose the store closest to them and the appropriate session, make an appointment and pay to start enjoying the board game. .

Unfortunately, this board game is not yet fully available. Currently, it is only available in the pilot store of Detective Du Script Mystery Hall.

What’s even more unfortunate is that this board game is becoming popular among friends.

At this moment, only one store in the country, Detective Du Script Mystery Hall, has the stock. If Du Xiaohui can no longer make money, it will be unforgivable.

"Speaking of which, I initially thought that this board game might become popular, but I never thought it would become so popular so quickly. Fortunately, I contacted several stores to borrow money on the first day, otherwise even people who play board games would be Not enough." Talking about the magical experience these days, Du Xiaohui's face was full of emotion, and her eyes when looking at Jiang Qi were full of gratitude.

"Boss Jiang, thank you very much for actually asking Qiuqiu to help promote it. When the autumn exhibition is over, I will reserve a table at Babao Zhai for you to have dinner. Please be sure to enjoy it then."

Jiang Qi scratched his head in embarrassment. He couldn't say that he didn't specifically ask Feng Zhiqiu to help promote it. He just said it casually. He himself didn't expect that Feng Zhiqiu was actually a top internet celebrity in the script killing circle. He thought that Feng Zhiqiu was just like him, just a simple and mysterious boss behind the scenes.

Speaking of which, Jiang Qi owed Feng Zhiqiu a big favor by asking Feng Zhiqiu to help publicize this matter.

According to the information Jiang Cha got from eating melon all night long, Feng Zhiqiu is a successful person who has basically retired from the script killing circle. At present, I basically bid farewell to front-line work, retreating behind the scenes to cultivate new authors, and make a lot of money quietly.

Therefore, Jiang Qi subconsciously thought that Feng Zhiqiu, like himself, was the kind of person who was quite famous but only famous. No one knew who he was when he went to the exhibition in person.

Both Jiang Qi and Jiang Cha ignored that Feng Zhiqiu was a well-known script writer when she started her business. Like Boss Shen, she started her career by writing scripts.

Feng Zhiqiu's creative style is also different from Boss Shen, who specializes in writing mystery books. Mystery books are very difficult. At the peak of his creation, Boss Shen could only publish two books a year. He relied on drawing on mystery novels from ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad, to write them.

Boss Shen has been somewhat exhausted in the past two years, also because he has copied all the mystery novels available on the market. No one has to copy it, and it is too difficult to be purely original. There is only so much that can be written about the original reasoning. And if you can really write a stunning mystery work, who can write the script?

Wouldn’t it be great to write a mystery novel? You are the next Conan Doyle!

Feng Zhiqiu is not the case. She writes emotional books, and she is one of the first to write emotional books. It is said that Feng Zhiqiu's original intention of writing a love story was because she wrote romance novels for two years when she was in college and was particularly good at writing this kind of novel.

In the early years, there were not many scripts on the market, and the scripts were not that big. Emotions did not require the beginning of Three Lives, Three Lives, and Three Lives, where humans, monsters, gods, and demons fall in love together. Feng Zhiqiu's emotional skills were very good at that time.

Moreover, emotional books are easy to write. As long as you master the know-how and your writing skills are good, it won’t be a problem to publish a book in two or three months. During her peak period, Feng Zhiqiu wrote four novels a year, two of which were hits. She was the queen of emotional novels in the screenplay industry.

Many middle school and high school girls who only play emotion books, the first emotion book they played was written by Feng Zhiqiu. Her influence is simply extraordinary.

In addition, Feng Zhiqiu has retreated behind the scenes in the past two years to lead new people, focusing on distribution and promotion. It seems that she has retreated from the world, but in fact her influence is even greater.

Under Feng Zhiqiu's management, her little book has hundreds of thousands of fans, making her a veritable internet celebrity. The business orders are tens of thousands per order, and because Feng Zhiqiu is not short of money, she does not advertise at all. It is very strange that she suddenly advertises.

It even gave people the illusion that she was not advertising, but that she truly appreciated it.

Many fans who follow Feng Zhiqiu's Xiaoshu account discovered that Feng Zhiqiu had posted a standard advertisement for the first time. Their first reaction was that it must not be an advertisement.

It must be the uniqueness of this set of board games that impressed Qiuqiu, and Qiuqiu took the initiative to promote it.

Then click on the picture to take a look.

Is such that!

Feng Zhiqiu's fans are basically young girls aged 17 or 18. At first glance, no one will be confused by Teacher Ling's promotional poster.

Before clicking: This is probably not an advertisement, this board game must have its own uniqueness!

After clicking on it: This is definitely not an advertisement, this board game is simply too unique!

Watch it again!

It can be said that one of Feng Zhiqiu's advertisements pushed the Mystery Magic Academy series of board games to a level that it did not originally belong to.

This advertisement is asking friends to help promote it, researching which promotion package is the cheapest on dianping software, whether to spend huge sums of money to buy Xiao○shu and Douyin promotion, and launch a two-day free experience of a new board game Du Xiaohui, who was involved in loss-making activities, can no longer be punished.

I haven’t started promoting yet? Why are board games so popular?

It's still a hit. Feng Zhiqiu marked it on the advertisement that Du Xiaohui's store is currently the only one in the country that can be played on a trial basis. After the advertisement was released, the phone calls at Du Xiaohui's store have not stopped, and they are all asking for appointments.

This is how you make money in a monopoly business.

Du Xiaohui just won and lived a happy life counting money until her hands cramped.

There is the case of Detective Du Script Mystery House, which is a very typical store. Anyone with eyes can see that you can make money by buying the Mystery Magic Academy series of board games.

Galaxy Script Agency and Feng Zhiqiu have laid the groundwork for this new board game to this extent, and Du Xiaohui’s store has also proved the enthusiasm of players and the quality of this board game.

Making money is certain, but whether you make big money or small money depends on the strength of each company.

Buy a complete set from a big store or a set from a small store. A set of board games is 19.9, which is really a price you can easily buy.

After the little ○ book that Qiuqiu helped promote became popular, stores that knew about this board game basically followed the buying guide written in the little ○ book and went to the official account to place orders and buy a set.

If you can’t afford it at 1888, can you still afford it at 19.9?

purchase!

During this period, the sales of the Mystery Magic Academy series of board games have skyrocketed. The sales of the first set of "The Mystery Magic Academy: Freshman Admission" have exceeded 30,000 copies.

If Jiang Qi's initial statement that there was no stock in stock was a polite statement, and it was to pave the way for not being able to ship all the products if sales were booming, now this is the truth.

It’s really out of stock!

You know, Principal Peggy developed 29 sets of board games in one go. Who would have thought that one of them could sell 30,000 sets in just 10 days!

The amusement park warehouse has an inventory of 3,000 sets. When Principal Peggy said that 3,000 sets of this product would be available in advance, Jiang Qi thought that too many would occupy the warehouse.

Little did he know that board games are so popular these days.

It is said that the owners of several leading pirate stores are so angry that they scold Jiang Qi at home every day. He scolded Jiang Qi for being such a traitorous businessman and capitalist. He ate his own meat and refused to leave even some soup for pirates.

By launching a pilot program to boost sales, they could only watch as the Mystery Magic Academy series of board games became a hit but they couldn't even make a pirated copy.

I can’t buy it in stock, and I don’t know the specific content of the board game. How can I pirate it?

Under normal circumstances, no matter how high the pre-sales are, it cannot be exaggerated. After all, pre-sales are risky, so be careful when purchasing.

Pre-sale is just like a movie promotional video. All things sent out by merchants in advance are not trustworthy. A two-hour movie may only have two and a half minutes of highlights, but he cut it all into the promotional video.

Audiences bought tickets and went into the cinema with the expectation of watching a two-hour wonderful movie. Instead, they saw one hour, 57 minutes and 30 seconds of shit, compared with the contents of the two-and-a-half-minute wonderful promotional video. All.

The movie is like this, and other pre-sales are not much better.

Especially those in the script killing industry, everyone is used to being tricked.

The state of the majority of script sales stores when buying copies is no different from the state of Jiang Qi buying copies in the script mall. They are both opening blind boxes. It's just that a normal script salesperson can see a so-called script introduction, but as everyone knows about introductions, the content of the introduction may not necessarily match the main text. You can write the introduction however you want.

Never believe anyone's propaganda before receiving the goods and seeing the full version of the content. No matter how beautiful the packaging box is, the stuffing inside may still be a piece of shit.

Small stores are usually cautious when buying books, especially new ones.

This has led to rampant piracy.

How rampant is it?

A boxed copy costs four to five hundred for the genuine edition and fifty for the pirated edition.

The city limit is 2,000 for genuine copies and 400 for pirated copies.

Not only that, there are also pirated versions of the book in paperback and hardcover versions. The pirated version of the hardcover version is simply a 1:1 replica. And the efficiency of piracy is very fast. One month after the new copy is released, the 1:1 replica of the pirated copy next door is shipped.

In addition, those who sell pirated copies are very diligent. During the time when Jiang Qi was managing the customer service account of Galaxy Script Club, different merchants selling pirated copies added their customer service accounts to contact them every day. They proactively promoted them and had a warm attitude. If they were newbies, they would even recommend them. Scripts that are essential for opening a store and recently popular, and come with free shipping.

Their work attitude makes people sigh. Although they sell pirated copies, they are really dedicated!

Logically speaking, it is impossible for the Mysterious Magic Academy series to sell so well in such a short period of time.

Even if this board game has a Qiuqiu platform, a pilot in Beiping, countless players who check in and post small books on their WeChat Moments, and stores who have placed orders but have not received the goods are actively promoting, "Newcomer Admission to the Magic Academy" Chapter" cannot possibly sell 30,000 units in such a short period of time.

Ultimately, it's because it's cheap.

19.9, what bike do you want?

Waiting for piracy? How much cheaper can piracy be? Is it cheaper than 9 yuan?

What's the difference? You may have to wait an extra week for piracy. How much money can you make in a week?

Principal Peggy’s publicity plan is truly a return to nature.

Good quality but low price don’t make money. If I don’t sell it, who will sell it?

Nowadays, pirated merchants can't buy off-the-shelf products, so they can't estimate the production costs, so they scold Jiang Qi every day at home. When they get the off-the-shelf products and calculate the production cost of each set, they will probably scold him even more harshly.

Damn it, Jiang, is there something wrong with your brain? Others make money in business, but you lose money in business.

19.9. Are you in the board game circle to do charity and accumulate merit?

As for the remaining 7 sets that make money...

Jiang Qi said that Lawyer He was ready.

As a law firm that undertakes all legal services related to amusement parks, He Lu said that interns and newcomers in his firm write patent materials every day, and his firm has almost become a professional patent filing agency.

They have been waiting for a long time for a lawsuit to come to court.

The kind that is waiting to be fed.

Du Xiaohui had a cup of coffee in her left hand and a mobile phone in her right hand. She was very skilled at playing with her mobile phone with one hand. Jiang Qi took a glance and realized that she was playing with a small book and kept silent.

"During this period, our store's Xiao ○ Book account has gained more than 10,000 followers. Under every article, someone is asking when board games will be distributed nationwide. Everyone regards me as Boss Jiang's agent for your board games." Du Xiaohui said with a smile.

"There was also a pirated clothing store that offered me 5,000 to borrow board games. His acting skills were so bad that I blocked him directly."

"5000? Then this piracy is a bit too stingy." Jiang Qi complained.

Du Xiaohui thought Jiang Qi was joking, so she laughed in agreement and asked: "Boss Jiang, tomorrow is the exhibition. I heard from Jun that you only have 3 people here this time. Is there not enough manpower? Do you want me to attend tomorrow?" Can I lend you someone?"

Jiang Qi thought about Principal Peggy's sales plan and shook his head: "No, the two of us are enough."

Du Xiaohui:?

Is it enough for two people?

29 sets of board games sold by 2 people?

"I might need to borrow a few of your rooms during the exhibition." Jiang Qi said, "It's best to use the large room upstairs."

Although Du Xiaohui didn't understand why Jiang Qi still wanted to borrow a room after the exhibition, she still nodded and agreed: "No problem, I will keep all the rooms upstairs empty during the exhibition and lend them all to you, Boss Jiang."

"Anyway, the store hasn't opened a book for a long time. It's more fun to play board games downstairs."
