Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The best employee? Secret prize? Boss Pei was going to reward according to merit?
Everyone immediately started clicking with their mouse to choose who they thought was the best. Soon, everyone had finished voting.
Pei Qian took a look at the results: Huang Sibo was number-one with fourteen votes while Bao Xu was close behind with ten votes. Lin Wan actually had gotten three votes; Pei Qian didn’t know who had voted for her.
Pei Qian looked at Assistant Xin. Xin Hailu immediately took out the long-prepared custom-made trophy and handed it to Pei Qian. Pei Qian walked to Huang Sibo and handed him the trophy, “Congratulations!”
Huang Sibo was rather shocked; he was stunned momentarily as he hurriedly stood up and took the trophy. Everyone in the office immediately applauded warmly. Most of them thought that Huang Sibo was indeed the best employee!
Who was the one who had pushed the development over and over again? Who was the one who had worked hard without complaint; always staying back to work overtime? Ocean Stronghold’s huge success naturally had to be attributed to the development team while Huang Sibo was the development team’s chief planner; he had given the most effort!
OF course, some people also thought that Bao Xu’s creativity had been very important; hence, Bao Xu had gotten ten votes. However, Boss Pei also had to be credited for creativity. After all, Boss Pei had been the one to raise three requests; and Bao Xu had come up with his ideas based on them. He had essentially gotten some guidance and hints before he produced the correct answer.
Furthermore, Huang Sibo had been so busy taking care of the game’s development; his presence was the strongest. Hence, he had gotten the most number of votes.
Huang Sibo held onto the trophy with both hands as he was so emotional he could hardly speak. This trophy looked rather unique, and it was obvious it had been custom-made. It was different from the cheap tens of yuan of ordinary trophies! Furthermore, it wasn’t just about the cost of it.
A trophy also brought about a certain degree of honor!
The trophy also had the words ‘Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd. First Best Employee’ engraved on it. This was the greatest praise and affirmation for his work; it was not something that money could give!
As everyone was still clapping, Huang Sibo felt that he should say something.
He cleared his throat and said, “I am grateful for Boss Pei’s trust and nurturing; I am also thankful for everyone’s constant support and assistance!
“Ocean Stronghold’s success should first and foremost be due to Boss Pei pointing us in the correct direction. Brother Bao and I had then managed to push forward in this direction.
“Second, credit should go to Brother Bao and his bold vision and inspiration. If he hadn’t thought of such a brilliant story mode and such a novel PvP mode to this game, it would have been hard to achieve its current success!
“Also, everyone’s hard work had also played a huge part. All this time, the designs team had been working overtime with me to work step by step according to plan while everyone else had also provided their greatest amount of cooperation. The great success was a combined effort!
“I think that this trophy should belong to everyone!”
After Huang Sibo spoke, yet another round of warm applause broke out! Lin Wan actually had some tears in her eyes, and she was rather emotional.
Hear, hear!
Shouldn’t this be what a company with a conscience was all about?
Of course, I had also not chosen wrongly; coming to Tengda had been the right choice!
The applause slowly subsided.
Pei Qian continued, “Next, I want to reveal the special prize for the best employee. Huang Sibo, from today, you are no longer part of the designs team. The chief planner position would be given to Lu Mingliang.”
Xiao Lu was flabbergasted.
Ah?
Huang Sibo was stumped.
What did this mean?
Hadn’t I just gotten the best employee award?
What was happening? Was I being fired on the spot?
Everyone else was equally stunned; they didn’t know what Boss Pei’s intentions were. Huang Sibo had done so well as the chief planner and the results proved as much; everyone knew it clearly.
Yet, he had been taken down like this?
Not only was he no longer the chief planner, but he also had to get out of the designs team immediately?
