Chapter 40 (2/2)
…
Tuesday.
Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd., Meeting Room.
Huang Sibo and the rest were seated as they looked at Pei Qian expectantly.
It was November 12 and the previous day was Singles Day where everyone had a forced holiday because of Pei Qian’s order.
Huang Sibo felt as though he was in heaven for the three days leave!
However, after the leave, he was only more convinced of a single notion.
‘Boss Pei is a good boss and I’m going to give it my all for him!’
It was the same for everyone else.
A wonderful boss as such was almost extinct!
Giving everyone a holiday for Singles Day so that those with partners could spend it with them and those without could look for one? What sort of spirit was that?
Where else could they find another boss that would take such care of their employee welfare?
Therefore, everyone was thoroughly rejuvenated and motivated after the three days of leave.
That was the case even for Bao Xu such that his bald head seemed as though it was reflecting off a sense of optimism and positivity.
Pei Qian coughed gently and looked at everyone present. “The next project we’re working on will be a FPS.”
The moment everyone heard that, they were stunned.
That was especially so for Huang Sibo.
He knew that Pei Qian’s previous work of success was Ghost General, a mobile card game.
In theory, the new project should have been a new mobile card game on a larger scale or at the very least, another mobile game!
The sudden jump in genre – especially to an FPS – was somewhat drastic and most companies would not want to do it!
After all, it was too much of a risk to take for a company that had not tried it before.
Furthermore, the trend out there indicated that mobile games would continue to grow – wouldn’t it be a waste to give up on it?
As though he already knew what Huang Sibo wanted to say, Pei Qian continued, “We’re not going to work on a mobile game project.”
“Tengda’s aim is to become a leader in the games industry. We must not let ourselves be blinded by an insignificant mobile games project. Resting in our comfort zone after earning a little? That’s not the spirit of Tengda and nor is it mine!”
“At Tengda, we’d rather go big or go home!”
When Pei Qian said that phrase, he was filled with righteousness, looking as though he was a tycoon that was overseeing his entire empire with everything under his control.
Enlightened all of a sudden, Huang Sibo nodded his head furiously.
So, that was why!
They were on different levels entirely!
Huang Sibo was only thinking about doing a safe job and keeping the company afloat.
However, Boss Pei’s ambitions were totally different!
Go big or go home… those words had Huang Sibo’s blood burning!
That was the difference in their frame of minds!
In his previous company, they spent their time thinking about how to squeeze more money out of the gamers – that was just shameless at best!
Yet, compared to Tengda… that was the difference between companies!
Pei Qian looked at everyone’s reactions and was extremely satisfied.
“Now, I’ll continue with the demands I have of this project. For this project… Huang Sibo and Bao Xu will take charge.”
“Bao Xu’s in charge of coming up with the concept design and Huang Sibo is the chief planner to execute it.”
Bao Xu and Huang Sibo were both stunned as though they had misheard him.
‘Holy shit! Such an important task?!’
Concept design could be considered as the soul of a game.
As for executing the main plan, one would be responsible for the progress and ensure that the game was smoothly produced.
Basically, Pei Qian had just casually assigned the two most important positions of the design team!
It wasn’t so bad for Bao Xu. After all, he did not have much clue about the structure of a gaming company and did not realize that he had taken on such an important role.
However, Huang Sibo was completely stumped.
Executing the plan? He was going to be the chief planner in a single leap?
That was equivalent to a six year progression of his career!
