Zheng Hongxi finished the questions in about half an hour.

Chen Mo was pretty happy with the results.

First question, Zheng Hongxi decided to have two different camps – Gods and Demons, with different martial arts separating them further. The two classes requested were monks and priests. One would be a tanky class, the other would be a caster class.

Zheng Hongxi jotten down a few weapons such as Ringed Blade, Scimitar, and Green Dragon Crescent Blade. and sorted them according to their rarity.

The next three questions were relevant to the World of Azeroth. As Zheng Hongxi was quite familiar with Azeroth, there were relatively more being written.

Take the fifth question for example, where Chen Mo intentionally omitted much of the information. Tirion Fordring was a key character in the lore of World of Warcraft, and his son Taelan was a member of the Scarlet Crusade. This questline played a key role in the ‘Love and Family’ chapter in the Plaguelands.

It was because of Taelan’s death that Tirion Fordring decided to restart the order of the Silver Hand, eventually playing a huge role in leading the charge to beating the Scourge.

Chen Mo hadn’t given that much detail on “World of Azeroth ”, only vaguely going over the relationship between Tirion Fordring and his son Taelan. Although Zheng Hongxi’s reimagination of the story was far off from the original, it was still acceptable.

Chen Mo was still quite satisfied after looking at the whole thing.

“Alright, not bad. Let’s talk about your salary. How much were you earning in your previous company?” asked Chen Mo.

“Six thousand.”

“How about this, I’ll give you eight thousand a month, with a month of trialing. If there isn’t much development going on, you’ll work Monday to Friday ten to seven. Otherwise, you’ll work OT on Saturdays, is that alright?” said Chen Mo after some thought.

Zheng Hongxi was very happy, “Yeah that’s great! What will I be mainly working on?”

“Mainly the story stuff, such as the main story, quest lines, equipment descriptions. Maybe designing entire worlds in the future, and possibly having you responsible for some story driven games,” replied Chen Mo.

Zheng Hongxi agreed, “Sure.”

Chen Mo said, “Alright, we’ll do the contracts in a bit. You can take this time to go back to the Magic City to pack your stuff. Are you alright to start working in a week?”

“Sure, I don’t really have many things back home anyways, shouldn’t take too long,” said Zheng Hongxi.

After sending off Zheng Hongxi, Chen Mo returned to the experience store.

Wen Lingwei said, “So, did you manage to acquire your second partner? I’m getting the feeling that the stubborn manager no longer wants to do this alone.”

“Manager, the weekend is around the corner, you said you were taking a week’s break before working on the next game,” reminded Su Jinyu.

Chen Mo was speechless, “Why are you in such a hurry? You’re not taking a good rest if you’re thinking of work all the time.”

Su Jinyu replied, “Manager, how could you be such a salted fish?”

“Alright, alright. Just hold on, I’ll send you a mindmap tomorrow, this time you’ll do everything by yourself,” said Chen Mo.

Su Jinyu was shocked, “Huh? I’m doing everything? Can I do it?”

Chen Mo reassured Su Jinyu, “Don’t worry, you can do it. This game is very simple, if you can’t do it, I might need to hire a new assistant.”

Su Jinyu was speechless.

“What about you manager? I think you said that you’ll be working on a new game yourself too right?” asked Su Jinyu.
