November 29th, Monday …
As usual, Pei Qian came to Tengda to do his rounds.
The moment he entered, he sensed that the atmosphere in the office was different from before.
What exactly was different …
Pei Qian observed closely and realized that everyone seemed busier than before.
"Have you fixed the bug from before?"
"I've changed it."
"Why is it appearing again?"
"That can't be, right? Let me check. That's not right. I've already submitted it. "
"Holy sh * t, why is there a bug in Repent and be Saved too?!"
There were cries of distress everywhere.
It looked like there were many bugs in GOG, which was still in development. Even the previous games, such as Repent and be Saved and Game Designer, had many hidden bugs that had appeared one after another.
Everyone was badly battered by the bug. They had completely lost the calm atmosphere they had before.
Pei Qian could not help but smile.
Very good! Very good!
Bugs meant that the development progress would be slowed down, and the completion rate of the game would decrease.
Pei Qian's requirements for the development of the game were very simple. They just had to complete the game within the time set by the system.
However, as more games were developed, more funds were available, and everyone's development experience was increasing, the efficiency of the game development became faster.
This posed a rather awkward problem.
The game that was supposed to take more than four months to develop was completed in just over three months!
Thus, he managed to squeeze out a month's time.
What should he do?
The game had already been created. Pei Qian could not force it not to be released, could he? There was no logical reason.
Thus, the game was released earlier, and Boss Pei tearfully sold it.
However, there were many bugs in the game now, and the development time was extended. Pei Qian had a reason to ask everyone to release the game later.
That way, he would be able to accurately schedule the game to a week before settlement. He would be able to earn a month less before settlement!
This was crucial. Saving a month's worth of money could save Boss Pei's life!
At that thought, Pei Qian picked up 'Glabella', who was napping at the side, and forcefully stroked it. Satisfied, he walked towards his office.
Indeed, Boss Pei felt much more at ease after adding a halo effect to the company!
Tang Yishu had been reading at her desk. She wanted to say something when she saw Pei Qian walking over. However, before she could speak, Pei Qian had already walked over.
She opened her mouth but was too embarrassed to stop Pei Qian. Thinking that there would be many opportunities in the future, she decided to find a good opportunity to ask him.
Glabella, whose afternoon nap had been disturbed, ran to Tang Yishu's feet and meowed in protest. Or perhaps, it was spitting sweet nothings at Pei Qian.
…
…
Pei Qian had just sat down in his office when someone knocked on his door.
Hao Yun entered and said, "Boss Pei, we've basically arranged for the recruitment examinations."
"The exam papers have all been prepared. They are currently sealed and will be opened on the day of the exam."
"The venue for the test will be the hotel's auditorium. The hotel will help us set up an examination hall that can accommodate a few hundred people."
"According to your previous arrangement, we will arrange accommodation for job seekers from other cities."
"I've also discussed with some of the postgraduates from Handong University about invigilating and marking the exam papers. The salary has also been negotiated. It's 300 yuan a day."
"If there are no other questions, we can set the date and send out the notice."
Pei Qian nodded. "Thank you."
In fact, he was not anxious about this matter. However, the HR department was indeed quite efficient. The preparations were made a little faster than he had expected.
In less than a month's time, all these things were settled.
Although Tengda's job-hunting inbox was about to explode, not many people would actually come to take the exam.
That was because the process that Pei Qian had set was too long. After the written exam, they would have to wait for the exam papers to be graded. After the results were out, they would have to go through an interview. Finally, they would be officially hired by Tengda.
What's more, they would have to pass the Tengda Spirit compatibility test after they were hired.
The entire process would be written very clearly on the recruitment website where the admission tickets were printed.
For many people from other places, they would have to travel back and forth to Tengda to look for a job. What's more, they would have to come at least twice — once for the written exam and once for the interview.
Although Tengda would reimburse the accommodation fees, the time cost was also very difficult to bear.
That was because many job seekers were still employed. It might not be easy to apply for leave. What's more, they might not even be able to pass the written exam after going through so much trouble. That would be equivalent to wasting their time.
In the eyes of the experienced job seekers, they would not have an advantage over ordinary graduates in taking the exam. Thus, their willingness to take the exam would be greatly reduced.
Thus, the scale of the first recruitment would not be too big.
Pei Qian looked at the calendar. "Let's set it for next Monday, then.
"It's a little rushed, but we can't delay it any longer. Try to finish the recruitment in December."
If they delayed it any longer, there would be more and more people looking for jobs after the annual meeting and year-end bonuses. The chances of hiring talents would also increase greatly.
Hao Yun nodded. "Alright, Boss Pei. I'll send the notice to the job seekers according to this time."
Hao Yun had just left when Li Yada arrived.
"Boss Pei, there are two things.
"First, for some reason, there have been a lot of bugs recently. What's more, it's not just the GOG that's being developed. Many old games have also discovered many problems …
"Can you give the design team some overtime?"
Pei Qian subconsciously wanted to reject her. However, on further thought, what if the development progress was really delayed and the game could not be completed before settlement?
Although one project could be left incomplete before settlement, there were other projects besides the game project that could not be completed, such as the cell phone project.
Thus, he still had to ensure the development progress and not delay settlement.
Pei Qian nodded. "Alright, let's relax the overtime quota a little. However, we have to calculate the exact amount of overtime. It's not just for overtime pay but also to ensure everyone's rest time. We have to strike a balance between work and rest, understand?"
Thinking about it this way, Tang Yishu's halo effect not only slowed down the development progress but also gave Boss Pei an extra sum of overtime pay. It was too worth it!
Li Yada nodded. "Alright, the second thing is that Big Boss Ruan Guangjian is coming to Jingzhou. Should we welcome him?"
Pei Qian frowned.
Ruan Guangjian?
There was no need to flip through the notebook to confirm that this was the second target after Teacher Qiao.
"Why is he coming to Jingzhou?" Pei Qian asked.
Li Yada explained, "Haven't we been working with Big Boss Ruan Guangjian before? We also worked with his workspace for GOG's character design this time.
"However, Ruan Guangjian felt that long-distance communication was a little inefficient during the hero design process. Many of the contents were not expressed properly. He was worried that the hero's concept art would not be able to express our original intentions well.
"After all, this game is different from the past. Many of the original heroes' design work is more complicated. Without a ready-made image to refer to, it is easy to make mistakes and make a huge difference.
"That's why he wants to come over to communicate face-to-face and meet you at the same time."
Pei Qian, "…"
"Of course, of course!
"Make arrangements for Ming Yun Private Kitchen. Also, arrange for the roller coaster!"
"This kind of exciting exercise will definitely stimulate his creative inspiration!"
"What's more, don't inform him and give him a surprise!"
Li Yada, "Al … alright."
Pei Qian leaned back in his chair, feeling very smug.
Ruan Guangjian is coming to Jingzhou?
Hmph, see what I'll do to you when you're in my territory!
…
Pei Qian felt a little bored after watching dramas for a while.
There was indeed nothing much to do recently.
That was because the various products had not been developed yet. He could not interfere.
Fei Huang Workspace was the only place where he could participate and cause trouble for the movie.
However, after Pei Qian accidentally 'guided' Lu Zhiyao last week, Lu Zhiyao's acting skills improved instead. He did not dare to go anymore.
Pei Qian felt very melancholic.
Suddenly, he thought of Tang Yishu. He did not know if she was used to working here.
In the spirit of caring for his employees, Pei Qian sent a message to Tang Yishu and asked her to come to his office.
Half a minute later, a figure appeared outside the door. She raised her hand hesitantly and put it down again as if she was trying to muster the courage to knock.
"Come in," Pei Qian said.
Tang Yishu pushed the door open carefully, lowered her head, and pinched her fingers. "S-Senior."
"The down jacket is not bad. It looks good." Pei Qian casually praised. "Are you used to working here?"
Tang Yishu nodded and whispered, "I'm used to it. I'm just a little bored. "
Pei Qian thought about it. Yes, that was indeed the case.
Cats were pets that did not require much care. They just had to shovel their feces once a day and add food once every two days.
They were not like dogs that had to be walked and bathed frequently.
Pei Qian thought about it. "You can bring stray cats here if you see them in the future. Of course, you have to bring them to the pet hospital for deworming and vaccinations. If you have any expenses in this area, you can ask the finance department to reimburse you. "
Tang Yishu, "O-okay, Senior."
Pei Qian simply wanted to make use of Tang Yishu's halo effect. It seemed to be very effective so far. The money spent was very worth it.
Since Tang Yishu felt bored, there was no harm in raising a few more cats. They were all going to shovel their feces anyway. It did not matter if there was one or two sheep.
Pei Qian was just about to ask Tang Yishu to go back when he suddenly noticed that she seemed to be struggling.
It looked like she wanted to say something but was hesitating.
"Do you have anything to say?" Pei Qian asked.
Tang Yishu hesitated for a few seconds and mustered up her courage to say, "Senior, will there be people in the company who steal trade secrets?"
"Steal trade secrets?" Pei Qian was stunned. Then, he smiled and said, "What are you thinking about? You don't have to worry about that at all."
Tang Yishu heaved a sigh of relief. "Alright, I'm fine then, Senior. I, I'll go out first. "
Pei Qian could not help but smile and shake his head as he watched Tang Yishu leave.
This girl was really stupid. She even stole trade secrets. Had she watched too many TV dramas?
It was just a normal game company. What kind of trade secrets could they steal?
Pei Qian continued to binge-watch shows.
Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong.
"That's not right. Tang Yishu only came to work last week. Why would she be worried about someone stealing trade secrets?"
"Could it be that she met someone sneaky?"
"That can't be right. If it was a normal working day, everyone would be working hard at their desks. No matter who Tang Yishu saw, she wouldn't think of stealing trade secrets, right?"
"Then why would she worry about someone stealing company secrets?"
"… Wait a minute."
"Did she see someone over the weekend?"
All of a sudden, Pei Qian realized that while this seemed insignificant, it was definitely not as simple as he had imagined!
