"How about cloud gaming?" Cai Wei thought of sothing and suddenly made a suggestion.
Cloud gaming?
Upon hearing Cai Wei's suggestion, Chen Yiyang began to recall the concepts related to cloud gaming.
Cloud gaming, as it is called, involves deploying ga resources on the manufacturer's equipnt, while the player's device only needs to transmit the visuals.
When the concept of cloud gaming initially erged, it indeed caused a sensation, with many big companies following suit.
But before this field could formally develop, it quickly vanished from sight, fading out of mainstream players' vision.
The main issue with cloud gaming is that it's sowhat awkward.
Cloud gaming was initially created to solve the following user needs: Firstly, users with insufficient local storage needed to store gas on the cloud.
Secondly, users with underperforming devices needed cloud operation to lessen the device's burden.
This sounds quite promising.
However, cloud gaming companies face one problem—how to make a profit.
Ultimately, all the major companies unanimously chose to charge based on ti, similar to internet cafes.
The cloud gaming price for mobile gas is cheap and can even be packaged monthly.
However, the cloud gaming price for PC gas generally ranges around three to four yuan.
This creates a paradox.
If players are willing to spend three to four yuan an hour, why not just go directly to an internet cafe?
The equipnt performance at internet cafes is far superior to cloud gaming.
Moreover, cloud gaming is extrely dependent on stable internet speed; poor internet speed can easily lead to high latency.
Thus, the current situation of cloud gaming is that players with poor equipnt and internet speed who need cloud gaming are unwilling to pay for it.
anwhile, those players who are willing to pay don't actually need cloud gaming regularly.
In the end, cloud gaming becos an option considered by so players when they're outside and want to participate in gaming activities inconveniently.
Chen Yiyang shared these shortcomings of cloud gaming with Cai Wei.
Cai Wei responded, "I currently have a project team working on relevant research.
For cloud gaming, we have made so progress. Our developed cloud gaming wave can reduce latency to a very low level.
Unless you're playing a PVP shooting ga, it's basically the sa as using your own good equipnt to play locally.
As for the charging issue, the cloud gaming market could be tied to the ga's season pass.
After purchasing the ga's season pass, players can receive free cloud gaming ti.
This not only solves the cost problem of cloud gaming but also encourages more player spending."
Cai Wei's words made sense.
Things like season passes and monthly cards are business transactions with no actual costs for manufacturers.
If cloud gaming can attract players to pay, it's essentially pure profit.
Chen Yiyang made a decisive decision on the spot.
Use cloud gaming to attract new users for Sugar Bean Man Adventure and entice players to spend later on.
A player who buys a season pass for Sugar Bean Man Adventure can share the cloud gaming ti with up to two other players.
This way, this family-friendly ga won't be rejected when a player wants to invite friends to play together but finds their friends' devices underperforming or without data.
After entrusting Cai Wei to help him solve the cloud gaming issue, Chen Yiyang didn't rush back to Lin'an.
This is because a few soybean traders in Shanghai invited him for a al.
Earlier when Chen Yiyang was in France, he t an Argentinian who hoped Chen Yiyang could introduce him to so soybean traders.
At the ti, Chen Yiyang casually acted as a matchmaker without charging a commission fee.
Recently, dostic soybean traders signed contracts with Argentina one after another, purchasing soybeans from there.
The price of Argentine soybeans is indeed cheap. After Argentina revoked export tariffs on grains, its soybean prices have beco the lowest in the international market.
While chatting with these soybean traders, Chen Yiyang inquired if it was possible to undertake other businesses using this tariff reduction.
"Mr. Chen, didn't you know? The tariff reduction from Argentina stopped right after we signed the contracts. It was reduced for only two days, with a total amount of 7 billion US Dollars."
"Oh, only a few days?" Chen Yiyang was sowhat surprised.
"Because the bean traders in North Arica caused a commotion." These traders showed Chen Yiyang a piece of news.
In the past few days, when North Arica's Treasury Secretary Beisente was out at a eting, the dia captured a screen of his phone.
On the phone screen, soone had sent Beisente a ssage stating: North Arica provided Argentina with ergency aid, in return for which Argentina canceled the grain export tariffs.
This led to a continuous drop in soybean prices within North Arica, causing the North Arican bean traders to lose leverage in their negotiation with Huaxia.
Honestly, upon seeing this ssage, Chen Yiyang found it amusing.
It's usually the Aricans who reap profits from others.
Unexpectedly, one day, the Aricans were reaped by Argentina.
This new leader of Argentina is indeed interesting.
Before taking office, he made all sorts of tough statents against Huaxia, criticizing Huaxia.
At the ti, many in the country believed he was another madman, a sycophant of Europe and Arica, making future business with Argentina difficult.
However, after taking office, he made a complete 180-degree turn.
He declared Huaxia as Argentina's great trading partner.
He stated that Huaxia and Argentina are long-term, stable, and reliable partners.
He sold a large quantity of cheap beef to Huaxia, so cheap that it drove dostic beef farrs to the point of not being able to survive, compelling a collective protest to impose taxes on Argentine beef.
This ti, the soybeans were handled the sa way.
They received aid from North Arica initially, then imdiately canceled export tariffs on grains on a temporary basis and sold their grains to Huaxia at extrely low prices.
Once Huaxia's procurent was sufficient, they promptly canceled the tariff reduction.
It's quite pragmatic.
And what's even more crucial.
Currently, the global production of soybeans actually exceeds the demand.
The main reason is that South Arican countries are rampantly increasing production for profit, indulging in a price war.
While South Arican countries have favorable geographical conditions and don't lack food dostically, the distribution leads to a lack of employnt opportunities for citizens.
Many citizens are jobless despite food prices being cheap; they still have no money to buy food.
Therefore, to stabilize the dostic economy, countries such as Argentina and Brazil are recklessly expanding production.
Even if the governnt cannot collect taxes, as long as these crops can be sold, it's enough to keep the farrs and farm owners employed.
This resulted in Argentina preemptively selling soybeans to Huaxia, leaving North Arican soybeans unsold.
It's quite amusing.
However, seeing no long-term opportunities for profit in this matter, Chen Yiyang returned to Lin'an.
No sooner had he arrived in Lin'an than Cheng Sicheng called him.
"Mr. Chen." Cheng Sicheng started off with a courteous small talk.
"Just say what you have to say." Chen Yiyang has beco increasingly focused on efficiency in his affairs recently.
He doesn't like idle chit-chat, preferring to handle matters quickly and move on to finding fun after wrapping things up.
