After this period of observation, Yu Fei realized that there was an unwritten rule in Tengda: consult Boss Pei when you can't make a decision.
Many people in charge would report to Boss Pei when they couldn't make up their minds.
However, this behavior was not like some companies, where they would report everything, no matter how big or small.
The people in charge of Tengda seemed to have their own screening mechanism. They would never ask Boss Pei for some questions. Even if they thought about it for days, they would have to rely on their own abilities to solve it. However, they would consult Boss Pei as soon as they encountered some problems.
Until now, Yu Fei still did not understand what the screening mechanism behind this was.
The necessary quality to become a person in charge of Tengda was to be able to distinguish which problems needed to be reported and which did not need to be reported.
Yu Fei thought about it. Although he was only a substitute chief designer now, he still had to do so for a month.
A month was not a long time, but he still had to master many necessary skills. Otherwise, wouldn't he be a burden to others?
Hmm, perhaps Bao Xu, as a veteran employee, would know about this problem?
At that thought, Yu Fei voiced his doubts and reminded Pei Qian that Boss Pei seemed to want him to slowly understand. Would it not be good to call him to ask?
Bao Xu thought about it and said, "You're saying that I don't know when to call and when not to ask?"
"Yes, this is indeed knowledge."
"I'll give you a simple explanation. This is a rule that I concluded from observing the various department heads. Now that you're in charge, you have to understand this rule as well."
"According to my observation, people in charge might encounter three situations in their daily work."
"The first is the daily chores. If they can't do this well, it would be purely a personal problem. They would definitely have to find a way to overcome it and not disturb Boss Pei."
"The second is very high-end and involves the future development of the entire industry. They would definitely have to consult Boss Pei because only Boss Pei could integrate the situation of the various industries and make the most reasonable plan."
"As for the third situation, it's somewhere in between the two."
"It's neither simple daily chores nor the kind that would directly affect the entire industry. It's a problem where there would be a certain amount of damage after making a mistake, but it would not be irreparable."
"Generally speaking, there is no need to ask Boss Pei about such questions.
"That's because Boss Pei has often given certain restrictions and hints when assigning tasks. The reason why he did not make it so clear was mainly to cultivate the person-in-charge's ability to think independently, improve their vision, horizons, and professional standards."
"Boss Pei's goal is to nurture every person-in-charge into an 'all-rounder'. Not only would they have a deep understanding and insight into the industry, but they would also become true leaders. At the same time, they would also be proficient in different fields.
"After assigning tasks, the person in charge will be able to deduce Boss Pei's true thoughts based on the conditions given by Boss Pei. This is equivalent to a kind of practice. The more they practice, the better their working ability will be.
Yu Fei nodded as he listened.
He had been with Tengda for a period of time, and he had been in Tengda Games. He had heard the old employees talk about the behind-the-scenes stories of Boss Pei's games. Every game had been solved with great difficulty by the person-in-charge of the games department.
And this was indeed a kind of training, a kind of test, just like an exercise in cloze.
Bao Xu changed the topic. "However, there are special circumstances that I have to consult Boss Pei."
"For example, there might be no progress at all. It might even affect the construction period and cause the project to be unable to be completed.
"Or, after Boss Pei has assigned tasks, the situation and environment have changed, and the original plan might not be suitable anymore.
"Boss Pei might be able to see everyone's strengths and weaknesses, but he can't be 100% accurate. Sometimes, he might overestimate or underestimate his employees.
"If you encounter these problems, you have to report them immediately. Boss Pei will decide if you need to make some changes to the plan."
Yu Fei nodded, completely understanding.
This was obviously a special situation that he had to consult.
On one hand, Yu Fei had not made any progress after two days of hard thinking. If he continued to struggle like this, it might affect the construction period and the progress of the project. On the other hand, Boss Pei might have really trusted him too much or overestimated Yu Fei's talent in game design. That was why this cloze question was too difficult.
Indeed, he had to consult Boss Pei.
"Thank you, Brother Bao! Indeed, after listening to Brother Bao's explanation, I'm much clearer now! "
Yu Fei could not help but feel emotional. He had not expected to reap such unexpected rewards this time.
Now that he had grasped this reporting mechanism, he would not be at a loss when he encountered problems at work. He did not have to struggle anymore. This problem did not feel big, but it was not small either. Should he alert Boss Pei?
Soon, Bao Xu dialed Boss Pei's number and briefly explained why Yu Fei had come to look for him.
"Boss Pei, that's more or less the situation.
"Although I have a rough and vague idea, I think the difficulty of this task is a little too high for Yu Fei. He might not be able to do it.
"If things don't go smoothly, he might not be able to complete it within the construction period.
"Therefore, I want to confirm with you how we should handle this matter. Should we let Yu Fei continue to study, or should I help him? "
…
On the other end of the line, Pei Qian fell silent.
This …
This was a little difficult.
Pei Qian did not know that Yu Fei and Bao Xu had repeatedly discussed the feasibility before calling him. He had always hoped that his employees would ask more questions.
That was because the more questions they asked, the clearer their communication would be. That way, it would not be easy for them to misunderstand him!
What's more, Pei Qian's motive for giving Yu Fei this task was very simple. It was purely to incur losses.
However, from the looks of it now, this difficulty was indeed a little too high for Yu Fei?
That was because the previous chief designer had at least worked at the grassroots level. He was also more capable and had never encountered problems with the construction period.
However, Yu Fei had only joined the industry halfway. He had only been the substitute chief designer for two months. He was also in charge of a fighting game that no one else in the department was good at.
According to the current development of the script, the game would indeed be very risky. In the end, it might not be completed before settlement.
Delaying the settlement would definitely not be acceptable.
Pei Qian considered for a moment and said, "En, what you said makes sense. I didn't think it through.
"How about this? You stay and help Yu Fei.
"However, you have to be careful. You can't do everything on your own. Instead, you have to focus on guidance, assistance, and inspiration. Don't interfere too much with Yu Fei's own design."
Pei Qian was very clear about Bao Xu's capabilities.
Although his repeated trips had overshadowed his brilliance, in Pei Qian's eyes, Bao Xu's harmfulness in games was on par with Huang Sibo and the others.
After all, Ocean Stronghold's prototype design was completed by Bao Xu. Huang Sibo was only in charge of overall planning and execution.
That was why Pei Qian repeatedly emphasized that Bao Xu was only a guarantee. In order to complete the game on time, he and Yu Fei had to balance each other out.
Bao Xu immediately said, "Boss Pei, don't worry. I will be careful.
"After all, I'm in charge of Suffering Travel now. I have my own work to do. I won't overstep my boundaries."
At this point, Pei Qian suddenly realized a problem.
"Eh, that's right. Suffering Travel is going to Shennongjia this month. Didn't you say that you were going along? There seems to be a conflict in the timing. "
Bao Xu was silent for a moment. "Ai, that can't be helped. The games department is more important.
"If there's really no other way, I won't go. Let Sa Ziran keep an eye on it.
"I'll let them off easy this time. I'll follow them next time."
Pei Qian could tell that Bao Xu had made a huge sacrifice.
Pei Qian thought about it and decided that this would not do.
If Bao Xu did not go, Sa Ziran would definitely not bear to be ruthless.
Although Pei Qian had repeatedly instructed Sa Ziran not to be polite to these people in charge, Sa Ziran could not be as cruel as Bao Xu based on his observations from the special training base.
That was normal. After all, acquaintances were the most ruthless.
If Bao Xu did not go to Shennongjia for a month, wouldn't these people in charge be able to escape a calamity? The degree of suffering would be greatly reduced!
At that time, as long as they complained that they were tired and uncomfortable, Sa Ziran would definitely let them rest.
That would not do! It was completely the opposite of the original intention of Suffering Travel!
What's more, Bao Xu had to stay in the games department for a month. This was too dangerous and a little uncontrollable.
Pei Qian thought about it for a moment and quickly came up with a good solution.
"How about this? I can't let you sacrifice too much.
I'll give you a week to think of a way to help Yu Fei complete the design plan.
"As long as there is a clear plan, the game will definitely be created in the end. You don't have to stay here for a full month.
"The trip to Shennongjia will go on as scheduled. I remember that the previous itinerary was to arrange for a simple wilderness survival in the first half and visit the nearby popular attractions in the second half?
"How about this? You go a week later and make up for this time at the end."
In other words, the previous itinerary was calculated in terms of weeks: two weeks of wilderness survival, two weeks of visiting popular attractions.
Now, it was: one week of wilderness survival (without Bao Xu), one week of wilderness survival (with Bao Xu), two weeks of visiting popular attractions, one week of wilderness survival (with Bao Xu).
Bao Xu was stunned. "Huh? Is that good? "
Pei Qian said, "What's not good about it? These are all work requirements.
"The work of the games department is very important, but so is the work of Suffering Travel. We have to take care of both so we can only make some minor adjustments to the itinerary.
"We just have to spend more money. It's not a big deal.
"Everyone works too hard. It's not easy to go on a trip. It's not a big deal to play for a few days or a week or two more.
"What's more, don't you think this itinerary is more scientific? It's like a sandwiched biscuit, and the mood will fluctuate like waves.
"According to the original itinerary, the first half of the month would be suffering, and the second half would be completely relaxed. The sensory stimulation would not be rich enough.
"This arrangement will leave a deeper impression on everyone.
