"You don't have to reveal your boss's information or your salary. You can answer in a very vague way! Don't worry, this interview is completely anonymous. What's more, I'll be recording everything. I won't leave any video or audio behind. "
Hu Yue seemed to be prepared. She took out a notebook and emptied her pockets, indicating that she did not have a recording pen.
Ma Yiqun was shocked. "Aren't you being too professional? Is there a need to be like this? Tengda is just an ordinary games company. Why do you have to do this interview? "
"No way!" Hu Yue said seriously. "I'm doing this interview for the healthy development of the domestic games industry!"
Ma Yiqun was confused. "Huh? What do you mean? "
Hu Yue's eyes sparkled. "If this was just an ordinary interview, I wouldn't mind.
"However, Tengda is different!
"I'm not interviewing Tengda for the royalties. I want to prove to the domestic games industry that such a game company with a conscience really exists!
"In the past, the domestic games industry had always been criticized by gamers. They thought that it was shoddy, that it only thought about paywalls, and that it lacked innovation … As a game media employee, I was also very upset about this, but I could do nothing about it!
"However, Tengda's appearance has shown me a different company. A company that is meticulous in its game quality, bold in its innovation, and sees games as art!
"I think the internal situation of Tengda is definitely different from other game companies!
"If I can really complete this interview, it would have a huge impact on the domestic games industry.
"I hope that Tengda can become a benchmark and a flag to guide the domestic games industry in a better direction. I hope that gamers who love domestic games will continue to trust domestically-produced games!"
Ma Yiqun fell silent.
At first, if Hu Yue had only wanted to dig up some gossip and write an interview with a clickbait title, Ma Yiqun would have rejected her without hesitation.
However, Hu Yue's words had moved him now.
If Tengda could become a benchmark and change the overall atmosphere of the domestic games industry to a certain extent, wouldn't that be a very good thing?
From this point of view, this interview should be accepted.
However, Boss Pei had emphasized that he could not reveal his true identity or the specific benefits he would receive.
This was a dilemma.
Ma Yiqun pondered for a moment and said, "How about this? Let's exchange contact information. Give me one day to consider."
"Alright." Hu Yue knew that this matter could not be rushed. She passed her contact details to Ma Yiqun.
…
…
After thinking about it for an entire night, Ma Yiqun still could not make up his mind.
After thinking about it, he decided to ask Bao Xu for his opinion when he arrived at the company.
Although the interview was anonymous, it would not be good if Boss Pei was unhappy. Ma Yiqun would feel guilty.
It would be too sudden to ask Boss Pei directly.
Bao Xu had always been the person who understood Boss Pei the best. It would not be wrong to ask for his opinion.
The next morning, Ma Yiqun found Bao Xu and briefly explained what had happened.
Bao Xu thought for a moment and said, "I think I can accept this interview."
Ma Yiqun was a little hesitant. "However, didn't Boss Pei say clearly that we cannot reveal his true identity or the company's salary and benefits?"
Bao Xu shook his head. "Don't be so stubborn. Try to understand Boss Pei's true intentions."
Ma Yiqun perked up. "Boss Pei's … true intentions?"
As expected, he had asked the right person!
Only a godly person like Bao Xu could understand Boss Pei's deep intentions!
Following Bao Xu's instructions would not go wrong!
Bao Xu sorted out his thoughts and analyzed. "Boss Pei asked us not to reveal his true identity or the benefits that Tengda offers. Regarding this point, I also felt that it was a little strange at first. It was very difficult for me to understand. "
"Who doesn't want to be famous?
"However, I slowly thought it through."
"Why doesn't Boss Pei want us to reveal his true identity?
"That's because Boss Pei is a low-profile person.
"He's a very charismatic game designer. If he reveals his true identity, perhaps gamers will focus their attention on him instead of the game."
"Thus, Boss Pei wants gamers to focus on the game he created and not on him.
"He doesn't want gamers to become brain-dead fans who only chase after celebrities. He wants everyone to be able to break away from his personal charisma and evaluate the game fairly and objectively!"
A realization dawned on Ma Yiqun. "I understand now! As an author once said, 'If you eat an egg and think it tastes good, why bother getting to know the hen that laid the egg?' "
Bao Xu nodded. "That's right, that's the logic. Yiqun, you're indeed from the Chinese department! "
Ma Yiqun was a little embarrassed. "Brother Bao, you're too kind. I just happened to think about that. It looks like real masters are all so humble and low-profile! "
"Then … why doesn't Boss Pei want us to reveal the company's true remuneration and benefits?" Ma Yiqun continued asking.
Bao Xu sighed. "I think that Boss Pei is thinking about the overall environment of the domestic games industry.
"We all know that Tengda's current welfare is probably unique. The other games companies are worlds apart from it."
"What would happen if these benefits were made public?"
The entire industry would probably be shaken! "Huang Sibo was a little confused.
"If that's the case, wouldn't it be a good thing for all the talented people to come to Tengda?"
Bao Xu shook his head. "That's a little one-sided.
"Tengda has broken the unspoken rules of the domestic industry and given its employees such good benefits. Wouldn't other companies hate it?
"Tengda might become the target of public criticism. Although the possibility of that is not very high, we still have to guard against it.
"What's more, once these benefits are announced, it will hurt other start-up companies! It's good to have high benefits, but not every boss is as outstanding as Boss Pei! "
"Companies that give their employees low benefits are not necessarily all black-hearted companies. They might really be working hard. There are many start-up teams where the bosses work overtime with their employees. Such examples are everywhere."
"As soon as Tengda announced that it would have such good benefits, the morale of the team that was originally good fell apart. This is bad for good intentions!"
"The environment has to be changed bit by bit. If Tengda suddenly raises the industry standards very high, it will have the opposite effect."
A realization dawned on Ma Yiqun. "Oh, I understand. It's the story of Zi Gong's ransom!"
“?”
Bao Xu was a little confused. It was indeed difficult to communicate with a top student from the Chinese Language Department.
