Chapter 82 - Interview (1/2)
“That’s because they discovered their passion for the game. They felt the sincerity I was trying to communicate through the game, which is why they are so willing to pay for in-app purchases in order to support me. I hope I can make more, better games in the future. Therefore, I will never forget the love given to me from the fans and I will not be complacent with this for a single moment. I will make more better games in the future to repay all the love from the fans.”
Wen Lingwei read out Chen Mo’s interview inside the experience store.
“I can’t believe I’m seeing this,” exclaimed Su Jinyu.
Jia Peng said, “Manager, aren’t the fans going to kill you for this?”
Wen Lingwei said, “Maybe you should come to the university for a few days until it cools off.
“What’s wrong? Isn’t it quite well written? Just take a look, every single word they released represents my true feelings towards the fans,” said Chen Mo.
“Manager, aren’t you afraid of being struck by lightning if you continue talking like that?” asked Su Jinyu.
“Manager, do you have a lightning rod for this building?” asked Jia Peng.
“Alright, that’s enough guys. I have an interview today, don’t scare the interviewee away,” said Chen Mo.
Jia Peng asked, “Interview? You’re hiring?”
Chen Mo nodded, “Yep, I might still need to hire a story writer and a numbers person. Otherwise, it’s going to be difficult to make larger games. Goldfish and I won’t be able to do everything by overselves.”
“Tsk, does that mean there’s going to be another cute girl soon?” questioned Wen Lingwei.
“Really?” Jia Peng’s interest was piqued.
“What are you guys thinking about? It’s a guy,” explained Chen Mo.
Wen Lingwei said, “A guy? What’s the point of hiring a guy? Get him out of here.”
Chen Mo was speechless, “Do you guys plan to turn my experience store into a women only place?”
Wen Lingwei rolled her eyes, “Don’t tell me that wasn’t what you were planning.”
“…Whatever, I’m calling it quits. The interviewee should be here soon, ” said Chen Mo.
Not long after, Zheng Hongxi arrived.
He looked quite young. He was tall and skinny, and looked like the quiet, polite type. Chen Mo shook his hand and brought him to the meeting room.
“Yep, I’ve changed my mind, his handsome guy isn’t half bad,” said Wen Lingwei to Su Jinyu.
“Can you get yourself together? It still depends if he matches the requirements of the manager right?” said Su Jinyu.
—Inside the meeting room.—
Chen Mo poured Zheng Hongxi a glass of water, “This isn’t some large company, so the interview will be more like a chat, don’t be nervous.”
Zheng Hongxi nodded, “Yeah, I’m not nervous. But I’m kinda surprised, you’re much younger than I thought.”
Chen Mo laughed, “It’s been a year or so since I graduated from university.”
Zheng Hongxi replied, “Then you’ve graduated a year before I did. It hasn’t even been a year since I graduated.”
Chen Mo had already looked over Zheng Hongxi’s resume.
Zheng Hongxi, twenty-four years old. Recently graduated from a certain university from Magic City in languages. Worked in a media company after he graduated and quit because he didn’t like the job. Wants to switch careers, but still haven’t fully made up their mind.
Chen Mo briefly looked over his previous work as well. Most of them were short stories. Other than western fantasy, he had dealt with Wuxia, Xianxia as well as eastern fantasy.
Although they weren’t particularly outstanding, the writing as well as the story logics were good enough. Most importantly no matter what themes they were, there wasn’t anything completely out of line which Chen Mo was particularly satisfied with.
Chen Mo asked, “Have you planned which career path you are going for?”
