July 1st, Monday …
Pei Qian came to the office as usual and prepared to assign work for this month.
July was still a very busy month.
This month, Tengda's new cell phone and game router would be officially launched. Exclusive games would also be revealed.
The zoo project that had been planned for a long time would also be officially opened in two months. Following that would be the new haunted house project and luxury clothing project.
Annoying things came one after the other!
Fortunately, Pei Qian was considered to have graduated now. He did not need to worry about studying and exams anymore.
There was a saying that went, 'Postgraduate students live like pigs, those who are employed live like dogs, and those who are taking the postgraduate entrance exam live worse than pigs and dogs.'
Pei Qian should be in the happiest state now. He would be completely liberated after enduring for another half a year.
Speaking of which, after he handed in his graduation thesis, he still hadn't received any news from him.
Pei Qian was worried and called Zhang Wei to ask.
In the end, Zhang Wei was vague and could not explain the specifics of the thesis. He only said that Old Kong appreciated the thesis and that graduation would definitely not be a problem!
Pei Qian did not ask further. In any case, to him, a thesis was like an exam. He just had to get a passing mark.
Because passing marks were the ideal state of perfection. Not one mark more, not one mark less, not one mark more, not one mark less. Not only did it not waste too much of his energy, but it also did not waste his time because of make-up exams.
In any case, Pei Qian did not intend to do scientific research. He just wanted to start a small company, lose some money, fleece the System, and live a happy life.
Passing the exam was already a performance of his hard work.
He was looking at this month's project when there was a knock on the door.
The new assistant walked in. "Boss Pei, I have something to report to you.
"This weekend, the President of Home Delivery, Zheng Hao, has been spouting nonsense on Weibo, saying that he wants to debate with you face-to-face. He also frequently @ our company's official Weibo account. However, because I did not go to work two days ago, the students in the operations team did not report it in time. "
Pei Qian replied without looking up. "Oh, I know about that."
Pei Qian had nothing to do over the weekend and naturally browsed the web. Knowing that Zheng Hao couldn't afford to lose, not only did he expose on Weibo that his grades in all four years of university were only passing marks, but he also said that he wanted to have a face-to-face debate and expose Zheng Hao's character.
However, the problem was that Pei Qian only had an alternate Weibo account that he used to look at girls. He did not have an official Weibo account at all.
Even if he wanted to, he couldn't.
What's more, Pei Qian had no intention of replying at all. So what if he got passing marks in all four years of university?
What's wrong? Are you jealous that I can graduate smoothly? I got the passing marks based on my own abilities!
Pei Qian did not want to argue with Zheng Hao face to face at all. This matter was meaningless to him. What's more, Pei Qian was not someone who was good at debating to begin with. Why did he have to come out and accompany the angry Zheng Hao?
Let Zheng Hao throw a tantrum on Weibo. It would be a good thing if it could really damage Tengda and Boss Pei's image.
After all, Pei Qian also felt that his current image was a little too ridiculous. For some reason, he was being followed and praised by so many people. It was not a bad thing to reduce his image appropriately.
It could also help him incur losses!
Pei Qian did not mind. He said to his assistant, "It's alright. Let him throw a tantrum. There's no need for us to respond."
…
In the afternoon …
Counselor Zhang Wei was busy. It was graduation season, but counselors like him still had work to do.
Fortunately, it would be summer vacation soon after he was busy for a while.
"There are still a few students whose employment problems have not been solved. What should we do? It's already July.
"We can't ask Pei Qian to force them into Tengda Corporation, can we? It's not appropriate to keep sending people there. "
Every graduation season, the school would have a headache because of the employment rate.
Zhang Wei was at a loss for now. It would be fine if Tengda Corporation was developing better. However, the recent business war between Tengda Corporation and the Anti-Tengda Alliance had caused a lot of commotion. There must be a lot of internal affairs. It would be difficult for Pei Qian to find time to spare.
It did not seem appropriate to trouble Pei Qian to solve the employment problem at this time.
"These big companies are really bad at being good people.
"It's fine if they can't win a normal business competition, but they're not playing by the rules now. They're using dirty tricks."
Zhang Wei also felt very ashamed of the Anti-Tengda Alliance and Zheng Hao's behavior.
Of course, he was on Tengda's side. However, he felt very puzzled. Why could the Anti-Tengda Alliance still cause such a huge uproar despite losing so many battles?
Wasn't the right and wrong of a lot of things something that could be seen at a glance?
He could only say that there were too many people involved. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens for everyone to reach the same consensus.
Zhang Wei habitually opened the intranet to check the notice.
There was a notice in an eye-catching position on the intranet: Announcement about the Undergraduate Outstanding Graduation Thesis (Design) Selection Results.
"Eh?"
Zhang Wei immediately perked up. He opened the attached form below the notice. Indeed, Pei Qian's thesis was there!
Zhang Wei wanted to help Pei Qian change the thesis before submitting it, but he realized that he did not know where to start after reading it. He found a few more young lecturers, and everyone had different opinions.
In the end, Zhang Wei had no choice but to hand the thesis to Old Kong. He did not expect Old Kong to give it such a high evaluation.
This thesis went through many levels of reporting and went through the process.
During this period, Pei Qian returned to school for his graduation thesis defense. However, that defense was basically just a formality. He only asked a few simple questions.
Later, with Old Kong's strong support, this thesis was chosen as the Undergraduate Outstanding Graduation Thesis.
Zhang Wei looked at the name list again. It was a pity that Ma Yang's thesis was not chosen.
Actually, Ma Yang's thesis would have been very promising if not for Pei Qian's thesis.
However, Ma Yang's thesis was based on Pei Qian's thesis. He had chosen a different angle to expand on. Although the arguments were detailed and the format was perfect, Pei Qian's thesis was overshadowed.
Moreover, if the Outstanding Graduation Thesis was given to both of them at the same time, it would seem unfair to the other students.
Therefore, Ma Yang's thesis was not chosen. However, in the eyes of Zhang Wei and the other teachers, Ma Yang's thesis was completely qualified to be chosen as the Outstanding Graduation Thesis.
Zhang Wei was relieved to see this name list.
There were indeed many people attacking Pei Qian's academic standards online. They especially spread the news about his grades.
Although a student's grades were considered personal privacy, there was no such thing as absolute privacy in this day and age. The school's grades were not highly confidential information. No one knew how it was leaked.
Zhang Wei actually wanted to stand up and say a few words of justice for Pei Qian.
Pei Qian was the big boss of a company. He was usually so busy managing the company. It was already good enough that he could take the time to attend a few classes and memorize the notes at the end of the semester. How could they expect him to score full marks in every subject?
Moreover, to someone like Boss Pei, he was already self-taught. It might be helpful to learn these courses in university, but it was not a big deal not to learn them.
Many people on the internet used this to attack Boss Pei. To Zhang Wei, it was an unbelievable thing.
But most of the time, things on the Internet were magical. The more outstanding a person was, the more people would try to find flaws and blemishes on him. Even if it was not a flaw on others, it would be magnified infinitely by those who had the intention until it became a flaw. Even if a person had always been doing meaningful things, a careless mistake, a misinterpreted sentence, or a maliciously interpreted quote could often set off a wave of anger and curses on the Internet.
In the end, those who were clean could only be forced to leave the Internet and isolate themselves. Only those who were already rolling in the mud and could unscrupulously attack others and drag others down with them could continue to make some meaningless noise on the Internet.
In such an environment, there would be fewer and fewer outstanding people expressing their views. Over time, some forums would become a chaotic place where people attacked each other, did not understand each other, and were chasing after hot topics and reveling wantonly.
The more people understood this, the more they would understand the value of Tengda and how difficult it was for Boss Pei.
As his alma mater, Handong University, of course, had to support Boss Pei unconditionally.
Zhang Wei immediately called his colleague in charge of Handong University's official Weibo account.
An excellent graduation thesis was not a small matter. He had to publicize it well.
…
In the afternoon, at Tengda Games …
Yu Fei was still busy with the new game.
Cui Geng was a no-show who wanted to get involved in everything except updates. Recently, he had become very interested in Tengda's new game. Every few days, he would come over to help Yu Fei write the game's plot.
Coincidentally, Yu Fei was a little too busy. Thus, he tacitly agreed to Cui Geng being the new game's scriptwriter. He also promised to write Cui Geng's name in the scriptwriter column and show his face at the end of the game.
However, Cui Geng's work attitude this time was really unpleasant to Yu Fei!
Cui Geng had agreed to write the plot, but he started scrolling through Weibo as he wrote. His work efficiency was really too low.
Fortunately, Cui Geng was not a permanent employee of Tengda. Otherwise, he would have been sent on a tough trip to experience the Tengda spirit.
Just as Yu Fei was busy, he heard Cui Geng exclaim loudly, "Boss Pei's thesis is really amazing!"
Yu Fei was startled. "Thesis? What thesis?"
Cui Geng pointed at the screen and said, "Boss Pei's graduation thesis. Didn't you read it? It's going viral on the internet.
"An undergraduate student's graduation thesis is trending; have you ever seen such a thing?"
Yu Fei was even more confused. "Boss Pei's graduation thesis is trending? When did it happen? "
Cui Geng immediately handed his phone over. "Take a look for yourself. This is not a bought trending position; it's a real trending position.
"I can only say that a valiant life needs no explanation. The last sentence of Boss Pei's thesis is really too domineering. What's more interesting is that Old Kong did not change a single word and directly submitted the original text. It looks like Old Kong agrees with Boss Pei's theory as well! "
Yu Fei took it and saw that Handong University's official Weibo had posted the graduation thesis of this year's outstanding undergraduate students. Boss Pei's thesis was impressively listed.
Previously, the President of Homestay Take-Out, Zheng Hao, had provoked Boss Pei many times in anger. First, he had attacked Boss Pei for getting only 60 marks in all his subjects. Then, he had declared that Boss Pei did not have any real talent and was just a fame-seeker. He had even said that he wanted to debate with Boss Pei face-to-face.
Although Zheng Hao's persistent pestering was very ungentlemanly and was really a sore loser, many people had indeed started to doubt Boss Pei.
After all, Boss Pei never showed his face in public and almost never expressed his views to the outside world.
Of course, the people around Boss Pei knew that Boss Pei was a wise, mighty, and great leader who strategized! However, to the outsiders who did not know the truth, Boss Pei had received so much praise and was even showing signs of being deified. Naturally, they would have a rebellious mentality.
Thus, Zheng Hao's remarks had some market value and had indeed affected Boss Pei's image to a certain extent.
Now that Boss Pei's graduation thesis had been awarded the Outstanding Graduation Thesis of Handong University, it was enough to counterattack Zheng Hao's defamation!
