Pei Qian turned his attention to the System Reward again.
The System Reward seemed to be quite useful every time.
The previous rewards included:
A 10% increase in value at settlement, significantly increasing income;
Changing the rules and opening up the charity quota so that Pei Qian could mindlessly use up a portion of the System Funds;
Allowing a project to drag on for two settlement cycles gave Pei Qian a good way to burn money.
I wonder what the system reward will be this time?
The System screen continued to appear.
The long list of messages made Pei Qian dizzy.
First, he confirmed that the next cycle would be six months, which was longer than Pei Qian had expected.
There were advantages to both short and long cycles.
A short cycle meant that settlement would be faster and he could see the money earlier. However, a short cycle meant that he could not do many projects that took a long time and was more restricted.
On the other hand, a long cycle meant that he could invest more money in bigger projects. The expenses would be higher, but settlement would be slower.
Pei Qian felt that six months was acceptable considering the problem of the Thriller Hostel's construction period. Longer was better than shorter.
As for the initial fund of 20 million, it was lower than Pei Qian had expected. However, it was double of what he had in the previous cycle.
Obviously, the higher the initial fund, the lower the difficulty of incurring losses. The System was not stupid.
Pei Qian began to study the Special Mission for this cycle.
'A true business genius would not give up on learning no matter how smooth his career is'. This sentence offended Pei Qian a little because he did not want his career to be smooth, but he did not give up on learning either.
I still occasionally paid attention in class, and I passed the final exam on my own. How can you say that I gave up on studying!
However, the system seemed to have another set of criteria for this.
The rules of the system were very clear. Pei Qian could take out at most 8% of the initial System Funds, which was 1.6 million yuan at the moment, to invest in himself. To put it bluntly, it was to pay for his school fees.
The System did not restrict what he could learn.
During settlement, the System would determine how much Pei Qian had learned. If the System was satisfied with Pei Qian's learning results, it would reward him with a certain amount of System Funds.
If Pei Qian had 22 million yuan in the System Funds at settlement, he would be deemed to have made a profit. Pei Qian had spent one million yuan in tuition fees and learned the corresponding knowledge. That meant that he would be able to deduct one million yuan * 8 = eight million yuan.
The actual System Funds was still 22 million, but the System would calculate and convert it according to 14 million. At this time, it was judged as a loss.
Initially, Pei Qian could only convert 2,000 of the 22 million yuan. Now, he could convert 600,000 yuan.
However, there seemed to be some pitfalls in this rule.
Firstly, Pei Qian could decide how much he wanted to spend on tuition fees. He could spend 1.6 million yuan at most. However, even for those so-called CEO classes, the tuition fees would only be tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. How could he spend 1.6 million yuan?
If he signed up for multiple courses at the same time and did not have time to study, he would not be able to meet the System's requirements. That would be useless.
Furthermore, how much knowledge did he have to obtain to meet the System's requirements? There did not seem to be a clear standard.
"It seems like if I want to spend more money and complete this mission at the same time, the best choice would be to hire an amazing professor with real skills or a top expert in a certain field. They would pay me enough tuition fees and I would spend more time studying seriously. That would be the highest success rate.
"However, what should I learn?
"Management? Economics? "Finance?
"Learn some management and then do everything in reverse so that I can successfully make a loss?
"Learning some economics should help me make a loss as well.
"However … these choices seem to be a little too confident …
"I'm just a liberal arts student who has never even studied Advanced Mathematics. If I were to learn these courses, I would probably become autistic on the spot. If I still do not understand anything after six months of studying theory, the System would judge me as a failure. Wouldn't that be a waste of my efforts …
"Forget it, there's no rush. I'll think about it."
Pei Qian felt that this Special Mission was still very important. He could not just do it on impulse. He had to think about it at length.
He had to ensure that he could learn well and spend more tuition fees at the same time.
It would be even better if it could help him make a loss.
…
…
April 1st, Friday …
Li Yada and Bao Xu were back.
Pei Qian hoped that this was an April Fool's joke, but unfortunately, it was true.
However, Boss Pei, who had just completed settlement, was now in a very relaxed state of mind. It was a little like a university student at the start of a new semester. He was safe and happy. In any case, exam week was far away from him. He could have fun to his heart's content first.
Li Yada and Bao Xu had just returned to the office when they were warmly welcomed by everyone in Tengda Games.
"Big Sister Li, you're back! Did you have fun? "
"Eh, Brother Bao doesn't look that tanned. Did you use sunscreen this time?"
"Did you have fun overseas?"
Faced with everyone's warm greetings, Li Yada enthusiastically shared her feelings about the trip with everyone. Bao Xu, on the other hand, sat back in his seat expressionlessly, put on his headphones, and isolated himself from the world.
He never wanted to go out again in this life!
Indeed, homebodies who did not like to go out could not enjoy this feeling no matter how many times they went out.
Seeing that Boss Pei was here, Li Yada quickly came over to greet him.
"Boss Pei, we're back!"
Pei Qian forced a smile and nodded.
Hu Xianbin walked up to Li Yada and said proudly, "Big Sister Li, I didn't let you down! After you left, I continued to implement your ideas and completed the mobile version of GOG. Then, Boss Pei put the finishing touches on it and made it a huge success! "
Li Yada smiled and said, "I know. I've been paying attention to GOG's situation. I'm proud of all of you!
"Indeed, Tengda is now a very powerful entity. Everyone has their own role. It doesn't matter if anyone is missing!
"Of course, apart from Boss Pei."
The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched.
Although he hated and resisted Li Yada's' it doesn't matter if anyone is missing in Tengda apart from Boss Pei ', he had to admit that it seemed to be the truth.
If it weren't for him, some of the projects could have earned less money …
Take GOG for example. Li Yada was obviously the biggest scapegoat. Who asked her to make a mobile game?
If GOG had only been a client-side game, there would not have been so much trouble!
From Pei Qian's point of view, he could only take a small part of the blame. He had created a season reward just to spend more money and then accidentally made the game more popular.
Hu Xianbin should be the one to take the least of the blame. After all, he had only seriously completed Li Yada's request.
Thus, now that Li Yada and Bao Xu were back, Pei Qian felt that the next settlement cycle would be even more difficult.
Li Yada exchanged a few pleasantries with everyone and then looked at Pei Qian again. "Boss Pei, after this incident, I've confirmed something in my mind.
"I want to give up my position!"
Pei Qian was stunned. "Huh?"
Li Yada continued. "I think that Tengda Games has been able to achieve continuous success because we keep changing people.
"This is a position that places a lot of emphasis on creativity. If someone is in charge of the games department for a long time, they would inevitably run out of inspiration and become rigid.
"Thus, I've decided to officially hand the position of chief planner to Hu Xianbin!"
Huh? Such a good thing?
The person in charge of GOG's success was taking the initiative to give up her position?
That was great!
Pei Qian was overjoyed.
Hu Xianbin was stunned. He quickly said, "Big Sister Li, that's not appropriate. I've just joined the industry …"
Li Yada smiled and shook her head. "You've already proven your ability. What's more, I've always felt that I'm not good enough to be the chief planner. Boss Pei's encouragement allowed me to unleash 120% of my potential. That's why I was lucky enough to have some success. Now, I think it's time to hand this position to a younger person with more hope.
"As for me, I'll stay in the project and enjoy life like Bao Xu. I'll just help out and play second fiddle."
Pei Qian could not help but feel emotional.
Look, look at this awareness!
Zhang Yuan, you should learn from him!
When Pei Qian used the first-place-elimination system to get rid of Zhang Yuan, Zhang Yuan had still been reluctant to leave Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and ROF computer-installation business. His attitude had not been at ease at all.
Look at Li Yada. She was leaving just like that!
Although Pei Qian did not particularly like Hu Xianbin, he still felt that Li Yada was more dangerous if he had to choose between the two.
He had to choose the lesser of two evils. Li Yada stepping down as chief planner was a good thing!
Pei Qian immediately agreed. "Alright, no problem. Your salary and benefits will remain the same, but you'll no longer be the chief planner. You've worked hard for Tengda Games, and you've made great contributions! You're getting on in years. It's time for you to rest. "
Everyone, "…"
Boss Pei's words were very warm and touching, but what did he mean by 'getting on in years'?
Wasn't Li Yada only 25 years old this year?
Pei Qian looked at Li Yada and Bao Xu's state and felt that this travel therapy was quite useful.
A perfectly fine chief planner had become a salted fish after returning from a trip and was asking to step down.
That was great!
Pei Qian wanted Li Yada to retire in the games department. At the same time, he wanted her salted fish spirit to spread throughout the games department.
As time went by, the entire games department would be filled with retired chief planners who only wanted to slack off.
Wouldn't that be great?
