October 17th, Wednesday …
The high-speed rail was about to reach Jingzhou. For some reason, Zhao Xuming felt a little nervous.
This matter was too sudden!
Yesterday, he went to work at Long Yu Corporation seriously. In the end, he finished the resignation procedures at lightning speed in the morning. After a simple handover of work, he informed his family in the afternoon and boarded the high-speed rail to Jingzhou today.
The distance between Jingzhou and Shanghai was not far. The flight time would be much shorter but the journey to the airport, security checks, waiting for the plane, and other processes were more troublesome than the high-speed rail. Thus, Zhao Xuming chose the high-speed rail.
The entire process was too fast and rushed. Zhao Xuming was not mentally prepared at all.
Long Yu Corporation was rushing him, and Tengda seemed to be rushing him as well.
Zhao Xuming was more valued when he left than when he was in office. That was ridiculous.
This time, Zhao Xuming did not bring his family. He only brought the most basic luggage as if he was on a business trip.
He planned to take a look at Tengda first and get used to his job. If he really stabilized and the time was right, he would consider moving.
"I wonder what it would be like to see Boss Pei …"
"Boss Pei actually used a game design idea to exchange for me this time. What a surprise …"
Zhao Xuming panicked for some reason, afraid that he would not be able to meet Boss Pei's expectations.
To make an inappropriate analogy, Boss Pei's ideas were like gold mines. They had great value in themselves. The only problem was that they required a certain amount of labor and time to dig them out.
Now, Boss Pei was giving up a gold mine and giving up on digging it himself. Instead, he was giving it to others to dig so that everyone could share the money.
That was a huge sacrifice.
In the eyes of Long Yu Corporation, Zhao Xuming obviously could not compare to a profitable game.
Zhao Xuming felt the same way.
Wouldn't it be too embarrassing if he did not achieve outstanding results after arriving at Tengda?
Speaking of which, Boss Pei had used an idea to exchange for it. That was it?
Just thinking about it made him feel like he would die socially.
It was fine for him to mingle around in Long Yu Corporation previously. In any case, that was the upper limit of his mingle. No one would be able to tell.
However, at Tengda, the employees here were the elites of the elites. Wouldn't they be easily discovered if they continued to mingle around?
This gave Zhao Xuming an inexplicable sense of crisis. It was like the feeling of a student in an ordinary class being assigned to an important class by their teacher. Pressure!
Just as he was in a dilemma, his phone rang.
It was a call from Eric.
"Huh? Is Eric back? "
Zhao Xuming calculated the time and felt that Eric was almost done with his business there.
"But … I'm no longer in Long Yu Corporation!"
Zhao Xuming felt a little awkward. He felt that Eric had probably come to look for him to talk about IOI. However, he had already resigned and was about to defect to Boss Pei …
His former partner had become his enemy. What should he do?
After hesitating for a while, Zhao Xuming picked up the phone. "Hello?"
Eric said, "President Zhao, I just got off the plane."
"There's something I need to tell you. You better be mentally prepared."
"Boss Pei might look for you during this period to discuss poaching you to Tengda."
"I've already decided to go to Tengda. I've already quit my job at Dayak Corporation. I told Boss Pei that I wanted him to poach you over so that we could work together. He agreed at that time. "
"This might not be easy to handle. After all, you still have a competition agreement with you. You're not free. All in all, when Boss Pei contacts you, cooperate more. I still hope to continue working with you. "
Zhao Xuming opened his mouth slightly, speechless.
"Boss Zhao?" Eric thought that Zhao Xuming was too shocked to hear the news, so he did not say anything.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Xuming said, "To be honest, I'm already on the high-speed rail. I'll reach Jingzhou in less than an hour."
"Boss Pei has already arranged everything."
This time, it was Eric's turn to be silent.
Zhao Xuming could feel Eric's shock through the phone.
Wasn't this too fast?!
In fact, Eric had indeed become a scapegoat after returning to Dayak Corporation's headquarters. However, the headquarters' arrangement for him was only a transfer and a mild criticism. They did not reduce his salary.
After all, the headquarters also understood that Eric had already taken the blame. It would be too much to demote him and reduce his salary.
However, Eric immediately submitted his resignation.
The headquarters tried to persuade him to stay two or three times, but to no avail. They had no choice but to let Eric hand over his work and complete the resignation procedures.
During this process, the human resources department did not forget to remind Eric that he had a competition agreement with him.
However, Eric did not care at all.
So what if it was a competition agreement? The competition agreement could not affect where I wanted to go!
Although the Dayak Group had a large business and didn't need him, Eric had to go through a lot of wrangling and tedious procedures before he finally completed the procedures.
Eric only remembered to call Zhao Xuming after he landed in Jingzhou.
It was about time for Boss Pei to poach people. He gave Zhao Xuming a heads-up in advance so that he could be prepared.
However, he did not expect Zhao Xuming to arrive in Jingzhou at about the same time as him …
What's more, it was much smoother than his side.
This made Eric feel very complicated. On one hand, he was envious, and on the other hand, he was touched.
Did Boss Pei really poach Zhao Xuming just because of what he said?
He valued him too much!
He had never experienced this kind of importance in Dayak Corporation.
Both of them were silent for a few seconds before Eric said, "Alright, let's meet in Jingzhou."
…
More than an hour later.
Zhao Xuming and Eric settled down in their respective hotels. Then, they took a car to Tengda's headquarters to meet Boss Pei.
The two of them looked at each other, speechless.
Last week, they were still fighting side by side against the powerful Tengda Corporation. However, this week, they had both betrayed each other. It felt like a show.
When they arrived at the entrance of Shenhua View, they saw Boss Pei welcoming them with a smile the moment they alighted. "Welcome, welcome!"
"The heavens are really helping me by coming to Tengda!"
"I've arranged a welcome banquet for the two of you at the nameless restaurant on the 20th. You must come."
"I'll bring the two of you to hand over your work today. If there's anything you need, you can ask directly."
The two of them were flattered to see Boss Pei so warm.
Eight words appeared in their hearts: General of a defeated army, not daring to be brave!
After a few simple pleasantries, Pei Qian brought Eric and Zhao Xuming directly to the 17th floor of the building, which was Tengda's games department.
Pei Qian introduced as he walked. "At the moment, Tengda Games is mainly divided into two parts. One is in charge of the development of new games, and the other is in charge of GOG's operations and maintenance."
"However, this floor is already filled with people. The work desks that can't fit have been arranged to other floors. Those on this floor are all core employees."
"I've wanted to make some adjustments and get rid of GOG's project team for a long time, but I haven't found the opportunity."
"It's just nice this time. I'll change the personnel slightly and send out the people in charge of GOG's development and operations."
"There will be enough space after Tengda's headquarters building is built. However, the building has just started planning and is still far from completion."
Zhao Xuming looked at the sparse work desks and wondered if Boss Pei's definition of 'overcrowding' was a little off.
Eric did not look down on him when he saw that there were so few people in the department. Instead, his expression became serious.
On Long Yu Corporation's side, there were many people in charge of operations in order to operate IOI well.
However, on Tengda's side, there were only a few dozen people in charge of development, operations, and so on!
This meant that Tengda's employees were all hiding their abilities. One of them could compare to two or three people outside.
Eric felt pressured to work with this group of outstanding people and be their person-in-charge.
Pei Qian brought the two of them straight to Min Jingchao's desk.
"From tomorrow onwards, you won't be in charge of the GOG project. I have other arrangements for you."
"Hand over the work and find an old employee to be in charge of GOG's subsequent development. As for GOG's domestic and overseas operations, leave them to these two."
"They're all old friends. There's no need to introduce them. Eric, Boss Ai, and Boss Zhao Xuming."
Min Jingchao: "Huh?"
His expression was filled with surprise. Obviously, he was not mentally prepared at all.
I've just come to work today. The chair at my desk has not even warmed up yet. Suddenly, Boss Pei came over and pulled me down?!
However, Min Jingchao did not say anything. He only stood up and nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei."
Pei Qian said, "Complete the handover as soon as possible. Then, follow me to Guangzhou."
"In addition, compile a list of all the people involved in the GOG project. We'll change our office location later."
"Alright, you can hand over your work. Look for me if you have any questions."
Pei Qian left coolly after he finished speaking.
Eric and Zhao Xuming looked at each other, obviously a little confused.
That was it?
Looking at Min Jingchao's confused expression, it was obvious that Boss Pei had not communicated with him about this at all!
He had changed his job directly. What's more, the key was that Min Jingchao did not raise any objections or questions at all. He just executed it directly?
This kind of execution and efficiency was a little frightening.
At the same time, he was even more certain that Boss Pei's control within Tengda was astonishing.
This kind of control was not just power or oppression. It could be seen that Min Jingchao had no complaints about this arrangement. He seemed to approve of Boss Pei's arrangement from the bottom of his heart.
That meant that Boss Pei's reputation within Tengda was terrifyingly high …
Working in such a magical company, most of his previous work experience, including his experience in interpersonal relationships with colleagues, would probably not be of use. He would have to relearn it.
Of course, Min Jingchao had long heard of Eric and Zhao Xuming's names. They were old rivals after all. However, he had no idea when Boss Pei had poached the two of them without anyone knowing.
"I've heard a lot about the two of you." Min Jingchao smiled.
Zhao Xuming quickly said, "No, we should be the ones saying that we've heard a lot about you. We've always been hung up and beaten. We've never won."
Eric nodded. "That's right. We're here to learn from you. Please give us some pointers!"
