March 16th, afternoon…

In the guest room…

Pei Qian looked at the name on the resume and felt quite confounded. He did not think that people could have such a name. That’s alright. He considerately pronounced the name accurately.

“Ma Dubiao1?” Pei Qian looked up at the plot planner whom Huang Sibo recommended.

Ma Yiqun nodded. “That’s right, Boss Pei. You can call me ‘Ma Yiqun’. That’s what they all call me.”

“En, en.”

Pei Qian began to scan through the resume while Ma Yiqun waited patiently. Actually, Pei Qian had no intention of recruiting anyone. At the moment, he had enough manpower to research and develop Game Designer.

As for whether he would recruit more people in the future and whether he wanted to research and develop two games at the same time…

Pei Qian did not want to think about it for now.

However, Ma Yiqun was recommended to Pei Qian by Huang Sibo. On his account, Pei Qian had to meet this man. If this man’s achievements were truly impressive, Pei Qian could always think of another reason not to hire him.

He quickly scanned through the resume. En, according to the record of his experiences, there was indeed nothing impressive about him. Just like Huang Sibo, he only had one previous job listed on his resume.

They both worked at Shang Yang Games before this. While Huang Sibo was the administrative planner, this Ma Yiqun was the plot planner. From the looks of it, they were both brothers in hardship. He had less than a year of work experience. Pei Qian was quite happy with this. The rest of the resume did not stand out to him at all.

According to Huang Sibo’s advice, Ma Yiqun recorded his work experience truthfully. There was nothing much to write about to begin with. That was why his resume looked relatively insubstantial.

After reading the resume, Pei Qian felt quite satisfied.

Given the current situation, Huang Sibo’s working desk had been empty recently. It would make no difference whether Pei Qian took Ma Yiqun in or not. Allowing this amateur to hang around in the office would be of no loss to him.

However, there was one thing Pei Qian was not happy with.

That was this man’s education! Huang Sibo was an ordinary university graduate, but Ma Yiqun was a graduate in Chinese Language and Literature from one of the top ten key universities. He was the perfect man for designing plots.

What’s more, the fact that he could even enter such a university showed that his IQ was not that low.

Seeing that Boss Pei had already finished reading his resume, Ma Yiqun took out another stack of documents. “Boss Pei, these are the short stories, essays, and novels that I have written. Take a look.”

En?

Something was wrong!

Pei Qian was instantly alerted. He took the stack of writings and quickly read through them, his face showing mixed emotions.

Ma Yiqun looked apprehensive.

He was worried that Boss Pei would not admit him because he could not see anything special about him. That was why he made copies of all the writing he did in university and in his previous job. He was hoping to score some bonus points with Boss Pei.

Logically, these writings would be very important considerations for people seeking to recruit plot planners. Pei Qian read through the writings. The more he read, the more excited he felt. It was a good thing that Ma Yiqun handed these writings over.

Otherwise, Pei Qian would have hired him!

A cursory scan of these writings showed Pei Qian that this man was not as his resume described him to be.

His writing was not bad! His writing flow was smooth, his vocabulary was beautiful, and he even displayed a deep understanding of Chinese classical texts! The synopses that he wrote for Shang Yang Games before this were quite outstanding, too.

For all Pei Qian knew, this man came from a family of cultured scholars. Of course, he wasn’t extremely impressive either. At the very least, Pei Qian could not tell that he was that impressive from these limited materials.

He could not hire this man. He could not take such a risk. This man did not meet the recruitment requirements of Tengda!

Pei Qian was prepared to think of another reason to turn Ma Yiqun down.

What reason should he give?

Pei Qian quickly scanned through Ma Yiqun’s resume once more, trying to find problems with it. That was when he noticed that Ma Yiqun joined Shang Yang Games in October the previous year. He did not join Shang Yang Games immediately after graduating.
