Chapter 299 - Life Had Cruelly Molded Boss Pei into a Great Actor (1/2)

In the afternoon…

The second person to be interviewed was Bao Xu.

Xia Jiang had already roughly understood the structure. Thus, she felt more comfortable during this interview.

“You used to be what most would call an ‘internet addict’. You basically lived in internet cafes, getting through life muddle-headed without any real aim. Is that right?”

“How did you end up in Tengda, then?” “Your first job was as a concept designer for a game. This is a critical role because the concept design is the soul of every game. How do you think you got that position back then?”

“Tengda holds selections for ‘outstanding employees’ regularly. Although you’ve been placed second, you still got a paid one-month holiday. How do you feel about this?”

“In fact, you won second place for ‘outstanding employee’ twice. You’ve been here for almost a year, but for two months, you were on a paid holiday. Most people would be quite envious. Why do you feel so troubled?”

Soon, Bao Xu’s interview ended as well.

Lin Wan was next.

“Why did you choose to leave Sun Strike Studios for a newly-established Tengda back then?”

“In the first few months after Tengda Games was established, you were working on very basic tasks. Later, you were suddenly made the director of the newly-acquired Shang Yang Games. One could say that it’s quite a huge responsibility. Why do you think you were transferred to this role?”

“When you took over Shang Yang Games, the company was incurring losses. Bloody Battle Song was a mini-client when the company first released it, and it was also unpopular. However, its popularity shot through the roof when you turned it into a mobile game. What made you think about turning it into a mobile

game?”

“You have already proven your capabilities now. What is your next goal?”

October 22nd, Friday…

Yesterday, Tengda’s employees were interviewed about the company.

According to the original plan, the interview team was to remain in Jingzhou through Friday and Saturday. They were to roam around and eat, drink, and be merry. A farewell feast at Ming Yun Private Kitchen had been planned for Saturday night. On Sunday, they were to receive gifts and be sent off at the airport.

Pei Qian only dared to show his face in the office when he found out that the interviews were done.

Before that, Pei Qian indirectly asked Huang Sibo and Lu Mingliang about their interviews as well. Once he found out that they strictly kept to their word and revealed nothing about Boss Pei, Pei Qian relaxed slightly.

As for what the interview would turn out like…

Pei Qian could not imagine it now. However, since his own interview had been written, he guessed that he would not feature too strongly. Of course, he could not harbor too much hope as well.

Pei Qian had to guard against Chief Editor Xia because it seemed like the latter would praise him highly.

However, after some thought, Pei Qian concluded that things could not possibly be that bad.

After all, the officials had conducted many similar interviews before. Most brilliant, celebrity game designers in the country had already been featured in their interviews. None of them were ridiculously praised.

The official platform only conducted interviews like that to introduce gamers to excellent game companies and designers. It was only natural that they would paint them in a good light.

Yet, such interviews rarely had obvious effects. Instead, the effect they had after being published on the official platform was similar to placing the game in a good recommendation spot.

Of course, Pei Qian had drastic thoughts like chasing Xia Jiang and her team out of Tengda. However, on further thought, he concluded that he could not do such a thing. Did he really want to fall out with the official platform and media over something like that?

Was it worth it?

Others would begin to suspect that Boss Pei was insane. Then, he might not be able to incur losses, but his reputation would be completely destroyed. It would be akin to social suicide.

Thus, Pei Qian had no choice but to submit to his fate.

As the saying went, one could not slap a smiling face. The interview team had traveled a long way just to conduct this interview. What’s more, they had nothing but good things to say about Tengda and Boss Pei. Of course, Pei Qian could not get angry with them.

In the morning, Pei Qian arrived at the hotel to meet Chief Editor Xia and her team.

“Chief Editor Xia, did the interviews go well? I’m sorry, I’ve been quite busy with work, and so I could not be interviewed longer.”

As Pei Qian casually blew smoke, his expression and heart rate remained the same.

He was used to doing things like that. Life had cruelly molded Boss Pei into a great actor.

Xia Jiang smiled and shook her head subtly. “Boss Pei, don’t stand on ceremony.

“You leave no stone unturned and work hard at your job, in order to contribute to the local game industry and Jingzhou’s economy. You’re really a role model for entrepreneurs.

“It’s my honor to interview you, Boss Pei.

“Don’t worry. The interviews went very well. I’m sure you’ll be extremely pleased with the report!”

Pei Qian’s heart thudded. It felt like something was wrong.

If Xia Jiang had grabbed his hand at that moment, begging for a few more shots or asking a few more questions; it would show that the report would turn out badly.

Yet, Xia Jiang looked very confident. Pei Qian began to panic.

What the h*ll did you get from the interviews?

What would the final video look like?

I can’t imagine…
