Lu Mingliang was a little puzzled as to why Pei Qian was eating to his heart’s content. “This is weird. Boss Pei seems pretty happy today. He was completely different during the previous company dinner.”

This was a little strange. According to Bao Xu, Pei Qian should be very lonely. He shouldn’t be behaving this way.

Bao Xu shook his head and said, “You’ve got it wrong.”

“Huh? Brother Bao, what do you mean?” Lu Mingliang was very confused.

Bao Xu heaved a sigh and explained, “Currently, the only person who must not be in low spirits is Boss Pei himself. Think about it. Game Designer did not do well. Both its reputation and sales figures were not up to expectations. Everyone’s mood was already low.

“Boss Pei is our spiritual leader. If he appears to be worried and solemn as well, what will become of today’s company dinner?”

Lu Mingliang was enlightened. “So that was the reason! Boss Pei was trying to influence us with his positive outlook!”

“That’s right.” Bao Xu continued saying, “A true leader must have a natural influence on people. He must be powerful spiritually! When faced with obstacles, he must be the most optimistic person. When everything went smoothly, he must be the most vigilant person.

“Not only must he be the first to become concerned with the world’s troubles and last to rejoice in its happiness, but he must also maintain a positive mindset when facing adversity and encourage the others.

“Boss Pei is a person like that. He is a realist who would carefully predict and ensure that everything went according to his plans. At the same time, he is also an idealist who would do some things without regard for its consequences.

“Therefore, we cannot let Boss Pei down. We must quickly become optimistic again. I believe that Tengda will definitely be able to sail through this storm. Everything will turn for the better! Moreover, I have a feeling that given Boss Pei’s confidence, he definitely has a back-up plan.

“Boss Pei has yet to give up. It is too early to be talking about our failure now!”

Lu Mingliang slowly regained the sparks in his eyes. “That’s right. Boss Pei has not given up. How can we say that the game has failed? We will definitely be able to turn the tables in our favor. We must have faith in Boss Pei!”

…

On the other side, Huang Sibo, Zhu Xiaoce, and other employees from the Fei Huang Workspace were eating to their heart’s content. Huang Sibo seemed a little apprehensive.

“Is this an appropriate time to tell Boss Pei about this?”

Zhu Xiaoce contemplated for a while and said in a serious tone, “I think that now is the most appropriate time. The sales figures for Game Designer had come to a standstill. Although Boss Pei didn’t show it on his face, I believe that he must be a little disappointed internally.

“This good news could help lift the spirits of our co-workers and give Boss Pei some assurance. Although the game might have caused us to suffer a loss, there is still hope for us to have a comeback.”

“It’s still too early to say that we will have a comeback.” Huang Sibo shook his head. “After all, the other party is a newly established website. This can only be considered a piece of ordinary good news. Let’s not exaggerate about the good news.”

Zhu Xiaoce thought for a while and agreed with Huang Sibo’s opinions. “Let us just report the facts.”

They held their wine glasses and walked towards Pei Qian. “Boss Pei, we will like to offer you a toast.”

Pei Qian was in a good mood. He raised his wine glass, clicked it with their wine glasses, and drank it all in one gulp.

After he had drunk the wine, Huang Sibo hesitated for a while before saying, “Boss Pei, I have good news.”

Huh?

Good news?

Pei Qian became alert at once.

Don’t you guys upset me during such a happy occasion!

Pei Qian tried his best to keep calm. “Okay. Say it.”

“Boss Pei, this was what happened. There is a newly established video website that hopes to sign an exclusive broadcasting rights agreement for our video series. After signing the contract, Boss Pei’s Daily Life will only be aired on this website.

“Although this is only a new website, it has been developing well recently. Moreover, they had recently pushed out a stimulus plan to reward video producers based on the views they received.

“After signing this exclusive broadcasting rights agreement—as a high-quality video creator, we will be able to receive a considerable amount under that stimulus plan.

“To put it simply, we will attract viewers to their website with our Boss Pei’s Daily Life series, and they will split the profits with us based on the number of views!
