In the afternoon …
The second employee to be interviewed was Bao Xu.
Xia Jiang had already figured out the pattern. That was why she was more familiar with this interview.
"You were once an internet addict in everyone's eyes. You lived and ate in internet cafes all year round without any goals. You lived a muddle-headed life, right?
"How did you end up at Tengda then?
"Your first job was to design a game's concept. That was a very important position because the concept design is the soul of a game. Why do you think you were able to get this position?
"Tengda had an 'outstanding employee' selection. Although you came in second place, you still received a month of paid vacation. How did you feel then?
"You've won the second place of 'Excellent Employee' twice in a row, and you've spent two months of the year since you started working on paid vacations. This is quite enviable. Why do you feel so troubled?"
Soon, Bao Xu was done with his interview.
Lin Wan was next.
"Why did you choose to leave Sun Strike Studios and come to the newly established Tengda?
"In the first few months at Tengda, you were doing very basic work. Then, you were suddenly transferred to the newly acquired Shang Yang Games to be the director. That was a very difficult task. What do you think was the reason for this transfer?
"When you took over Shang Yang Games, it was just a mess with very low income. Bloody Battle Song was a mini-client when it was first released. Its figures were also not good. It only became popular when it was made into a mobile version. How did you come up with the idea of making a mobile version? "
"Now that you've proven your ability, what's your next goal?"
…
…
October 22nd, Friday …
The interview regarding Tengda's employees had been completed yesterday.
According to the original plan, the interview team would remain in Jingzhou on Friday and Saturday. They would eat, drink, and have fun. They would have a meal at Ming Yun Private Kitchen on Saturday night. Then, they would send gifts to the airport on Sunday.
Pei Qian only dared to show his face in the office after knowing that the interview was completed.
During this period, Pei Qian also asked Huang Sibo, Lu Mingliang, and the others. After knowing that they had strictly followed his instructions and did not reveal anything about Boss Pei, Pei Qian felt slightly more at ease.
As for what the interview would be like …
Pei Qian could not think of anything. However, since his interview would only be written, it would probably be less relevant, right?
Of course, he couldn't be too hopeful.
Chief Editor Xia did not come with good intentions. He felt that she would definitely brag about Pei Qian.
However, after some thought, Pei Qian felt that things could not be that bad.
After all, the government had arranged many similar interviews. Most of the rising star producers in the country had appeared in the interviews, and they were basically exaggerated.
The purpose of the interview was to introduce excellent game designers and game companies to the players, so it was reasonable to give them some publicity.
However, these interviews did not have much of an effect. If they were posted on the official platform, they would at most get a good recommendation spot.
It was not that Pei Qian did not have any extreme thoughts, such as chasing Xia Jiang and the others away.
But if one thought about it with their toes, they would know that it was impossible.
Was he really going to fall out with the authorities and the media over this?
Is it worth it?
Others might wonder if Boss Pei had gone mad.
At that time, they might not necessarily be able to lose money, and they might even lose their reputation. Creating a social death was truly a brainless act.
Therefore, Pei Qian could only resign himself to fate.
As the saying went, one should not slap a smiling person. The reporter had come all the way here for an interview, and what she said was good. Pei Qian could not be angry even if he wanted to.
In the morning, Pei Qian arrived at the hotel and met Chief Editor Xia and the others again.
"Chief Editor Xia, did the interview go well?
I'm really sorry, I've been a little busy recently, so I couldn't cooperate with the interview properly. "
Pei Qian casually spouted nonsense without changing his expression or heart rate.
After all, he was a habitual offender. Life had tempered Boss Pei into a good actor.
Xia Jiang smiled and shook her head. "What are you saying, Boss Pei?
"Boss Pei, you've racked your brains and worked hard. You've made great contributions to the domestic games industry and the local economic development of Jingzhou. You're really a model entrepreneur.
"It's also a great honor for me to be able to interview Boss Pei.
"Don't worry, Boss Pei. The interview was very successful. You'll be satisfied when the report is out!"
Pei Qian's heart skipped a beat, and he knew that things were not going well.
If Xia Jiang had grabbed his hand, hoping to shoot a few more scenes or ask a few more questions, it would mean that the report was not going well.
However, looking at Xia Jiang's confident look, Pei Qian panicked.
What exactly did she pick?
What would the video of the interview be like when it was released?
He could not imagine …
However, Pei Qian could not possibly let them interview him again. Wouldn't that be courting death?
Thus, Pei Qian could only curse in his heart as he put on a smile. "Chief Editor Xia, you've worked hard! Play around in Jingzhou for the next two days and experience the local customs.
"I've arranged a farewell banquet and some small gifts for everyone on Saturday. Chief Editor Xia, please help us express our gratitude to the leaders of the platform."
Xia Jiang quickly nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei! Definitely!
"Have fun, everyone. I still have work to do, so I won't be accompanying you."
Pei Qian said goodbye to everyone and then left with Assistant Xin.
After walking out of the hotel lobby, Pei Qian said to Assistant Xin with a sullen face, "Arrange for them to go to Jingzhou's Xintiandi amusement park. Roller coasters, drop towers, pendulum rides, haunted houses, bungee jumping … all of them! We must make sure that everyone has a good time. We can't neglect them!
"We'll prepare a skydiving event for everyone the day after tomorrow. We must let everyone experience Jingzhou's local customs!"
…
The interview that had been giving Pei Qian a headache finally came to an end.
Now, Pei Qian was like a primary school student who had just finished an exam. His mentality was probably: I don't know if I can pass, but at least I filled all the blanks.
In any case, he would leave it up to fate as to how the interview turned out!
After returning to the office, Pei Qian turned his grief into motivation and continued to work on 1024 Digital Day.
Everyone from Upwind Logistics and Fish-Catching Internet Cafe had been busy preparing for the next few days during the interview.
There were only two days left until October 24th. Most of the preparations had been completed.
Zhang Yuan had already rented warehouses near several Fish-Catching Internet Cafes. He had also rented a huge warehouse in a cheaper area in the suburbs of Jingzhou to store all kinds of computer accessories.
Of course, with so many places, he could not just store computer accessories and other peripherals. After all, there were not that many customers in the early stages. There was no need to prepare so much stock.
However, Pei Qian did not feel that there was anything wrong with that. If the warehouse was not full, so be it. Wasting space was equivalent to wasting money. He could not be happier.
On top of that, Pei Qian considered the immense pressure that the event would bring. He also planned ahead and made preparations.
Fish-Catching Take-Out and Upwind Logistics had hired a large number of temporary and part-timers. They were paid according to the short-term workload.
After all, Fish-Catching Take-Out and Upwind Logistics might have a lot of work to do during the event. Even with the additional incentives of bonuses, the delivery men and delivery men might not be able to handle the workload.
It would not be good if the delivery time was too slow or there was a backlog of deliveries.
It was not that this would ruin their reputation, but it might affect their ability to incur losses.
In any case, Boss Pei had to eliminate any hidden dangers that might cause him to incur losses as soon as possible!
The 1024 Digital Day this time was set to run from October 24th to 31st.
During the event, all of Fish-Catching Take-Out's dishes would be discounted. At the same time, delivery fees would be waived.
If you use the Upwind Courier Station to send your mail, you will receive a discount on delivery fees. The commission for delivery to your door will also be eliminated.
ROF had arranged for three units to be sold. During the event, all computers would be sold at the price of their components.
At the same time, there would be a free upgrade event. The first 100 customers and the lucky customers who were randomly selected could enjoy a free upgrade from 7999 to 11999, or from 11999 to 15999.
There would be no upgrade service for the highest-end 15999 units. Instead, there would be a direct rebate of 4,000 yuan. That was equivalent to buying a 15999 unit for 11999.
Fish-Catching Internet Cafe would hold a lucky draw regularly and give away a unit at random.
Although these events were still in preparation, the publicity for each event was different.
Fish-Catching Take-Out, Upwind Courier stations, and ROF's units had already started to advertise like crazy. They had already spent a huge sum of advertising fees.
The event page on Fish-Catching Take-Out's application had already been posted. When the delivery men delivered the food, they would also receive a promotional leaflet.
When the delivery men from Upwind Logistics delivered the food, they would also receive a promotional leaflet. At the same time, Lu Mingliang had also informed the various delivery companies in advance to ask them to send as many packages as possible to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe during the event.
Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, on the other hand, advertised ROF's units' promotions.
However, there were also some events that were not advertised at all. For example, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe would give away units for free during the lucky draw.
These events would not be publicized publicly. The lucky winners would be notified in private to prevent the news from spreading.
After making some arrangements, Pei Qian felt the heavy burden on his shoulders lighten.
Although he had not grasped many details yet, he felt that it was about time for him to take a break.
Logically speaking, such a huge promotion would not incur any losses.
Settlement would be held on October 31st. There would not be any new projects from the 24th to the 31st. Otherwise, settlement would be delayed.
Pei Qian felt that it would be a piece of cake for him to incur losses of seven to eight hundred thousand yuan.
At that thought, Pei Qian leaned back in his chair, feeling at ease. He was ready to take a break and watch dramas.
The hardworking Boss Pei would not be able to take it if he was always busy with work.
However, at that moment, he received a message on his cell phone. It was from Li Yada.
"Boss Pei! The English and Japanese versions of Repent and be Saved have been translated and edited. The official platform has decided to release the overseas version on the official platform tomorrow! There will be good publicity resources. Boss Pei, you can pay attention to them. "
???
Pei Qian stared at his cell phone, stunned.
F * ck! He had forgotten about this!
The official platform would settle accounts once a week. The income would be transferred to his account on Monday.
Today was Friday. If the official platform released the overseas version of Repent and be Saved on Saturday, the income from both Saturday and Sunday would be transferred to his account on Monday. That would be another windfall.
Pei Qian fell silent.
Five minutes later, he opened the event form again and began to edit it bitterly.
Why the hell would I rest? I have to continue working!
