Chapter 305 Nobody Knows Who I am, but the Legend of My Act will Remain Forever

“Huang Sibo is an all-rounded employee. He can plan entire projects and lead others well. He also has a high degree of professionalism. One can say that he is an outstanding, model employee.

“Bao Xu has an extremely strong character, and he’s very passionate about games. One can say that he is constantly working on his skills but is not very social. He’s also not good at seeing the big picture and leading others.

“Lin Wan is an idealist. She might not be very detailed, but once she sets her sights on something, she is sure to persevere until the end, unwaveringly.

“Lu Mingliang does not have very strong opinions, and one might say that he has trouble making up his mind. However, he is an excellent executor. Once he receives a task, he would make sure that he finishes it flawlessly.

“These four employees come from very different backgrounds, but they have one thing in common: they all used to be lost and directionless.

“However, all of them reached their full potential in Tengda. “The all-rounder, Huang Sibo, took charge of Fei Huang Workspace and became an independent leader very early in his career.

“Bao Xu, who constantly seeks to improve games, remains in Tengda Games and uses his vast gaming experience to steer every work towards success.

“The idealist Lin Wan was transferred to Shang Yang Games. She turned a game with paywalls into a game with a heart and cleansed the environment for both web-based and mobile gamers.

“The outstanding executor, Lu Mingliang, stepped back after achieving success with Game Designer. Now, he manages Upwind Logistics—a business that requires both patience and attention to detail-on behalf of Tengda. “These talents have very different characters, and they have all been placed in the most appropriate positions so that they can maximize their potential.

“Perhaps this is the main reason that Tengda achieved success so rapidly!”

Ma Yang was Boss Pei’s right-hand man and trusted general, but he was not interviewed.

This was because Pei Qian was worried that Ma Yang would not be smart enough to keep their secrets under wraps. What’s more, if people found out that Ma Yang and Pei Qian used to be roommates, they might be closer to finding out Boss Pei’s real identity.

Yet, these four employees’ interviews were already giving Boss Pei a major headache!

Finally, Pei Qian more or less understood Xia Jiang’s plan.

‘Boss Pei’ was not mentioned at all in all four interviews. However, anyone who paid some attention to the interviews would realize that an ‘invisible person’ existed between the lines!

Who was the one who pointed out the right path to these outstanding employees?

Who was the one who placed these outstanding employees in the right positions?

Who was the one who created such a generous and liberal working environment?

Who was the one who decided on Tengda’s general direction and battle strategy?

Of course, it was the boss of Tengda!

Thus, while the interviews seemed to be praising Tengda’s employees on the surface, they were actually praising Tengda’s boss! It was just like historical stories about various talents in different dynasties. Talented ministers who dared to admonish others had been set above imperial courts; generals had been brave, skilled, and well-respected by all. Did this merely reflect well on the talented ministers and good generals?

Yes and no.

At the end of the day, these had only been possible because of the existence of a wise monarch!

It was the wise monarch who had raised the talented ministers and good generals through the ranks and had put them in their positions, allowing them to serve and glorify the country.

If the monarch had been muddle-headed, it would not have mattered how many talented people there were in the country. They would still have been pushed aside by crafty, vicious people. The glorious dynasties would have been turned upside down in no time!

The documentary had already achieved its purpose up to this point.

However, that was not the end.

The video ended off with some more words.

“Today, the author used the ’empty spaces’ technique to allow the readers to outline the silhouette of our subject—the celebrity creator.

“The readers should already have a general picture of him by now.

“The author had also thought about doing a more in-depth interview with him so that his spirit could be publicized.

“However, he said that the employees of Tengda should get the credit instead. He credited Tengda’s achievements to the talents and hard work of its employees. He said that he was only fulfilling his duties.

“In order to convey his thoughts more accurately, we will quote a portion of what he said during the interview. Hopefully, readers would be able to color in his silhouette.

” ‘Joining the game industry was a rash decision on my part. I really regret this decision; if only I had chosen other industries instead.

“‘Actually, I’m not at all interested in making profits. I have never thought about how to balance building a reputation and making profits. However, for some reason, as Tengda’s reputation improves; sales would increase. In turn, we would generate more profits. We’re earning so much that it’s becoming suffocating. “My aim has always been to make a loss-incurring game.

“People have been overthinking the plot in Repent and be Saved. I only wanted to torture players with that game. Seeing players suffer is my guilty pleasure.’

“These are genuine words from his heart, uttered during the interview.

“However, we also noticed that he had completed Repent and be Saved. That proves that there is a silently sacrificial and hardworking soul hidden behind this nonchalant and humorous demeanor.

“On top of all these, he is also an extremely busy person. He has a full schedule every day, and yet he somehow finds the energy to keep working hard.

“Perhaps this all stems from his love for extreme sports.

“He never gets proud or boastful about his own achievements. Instead, he continues to challenge himself and push his boundaries without resting

“Lastly, the author wants to conclude with a single line.

“It is Jingzhou and the domestically-produced game industry’s privilege to house a talented designer, outstanding entrepreneur, and good-hearted boss like him!”

Pei Qian drank a mouthful of water and remained silent for a while before he finally heaved a long sigh. They had praised him to no end!

Pei Qian could not have imagined that the interview would turn out like that. It was f*cking ridiculous! Even if Pei Qian had exhausted his imagination, he would not have thought that Xia Jiang would write a piece like that!

The video had been posted on the official platform’s homepage. Since this was not Aili Island, there were no bullet screen comments.

However, there were still comments below.

“The official platform came to Jingzhou?” “They actually interviewed Tengda this time! Let me see what the creator of Repent and be Saved really looks like!” “D*mn, all of Tengda’s employees are so talented. Some had been poached from other companies, and some approached Tengda on their own. They even found an internet addict from an internet cafe!” “They humbly invited a young internet addict to work on their game’s conceptual design? That’s a unique way of sourcing for talents!”

“Holy sh*t, he offered double of Huang Sibo’s initial pay? A company that voluntarily offers a higher pay during the interview actually exists in this world? I didn’t mishear him, right?”

“The chief planner of an extremely successful game went to start his own business??? Shouldn’t they have asked him to start researching and developing a new game as soon as possible???”

“The most outstanding employee in Tengda would get a Dream Fund of a million yuan and a paid holiday? Holy sh*t, what kind of divine company is this?! If it were not the official platform reporting this, I would think that this was a scam!”

“So the messed-up mobile game, Bloody Battle Song, was created by Tengda Games as well?! I knew that the game had a heart; it felt like Ghost General!” “That Zha Zhuti advertisement was probably related to Tengda Games as well, right? D*mn, I was still mocking the game in the beginning. I didn’t know it was created by Tengda!”

“It was Tengda that resurrected Bloody Battle Song! I said this before; ordinary game designers were not so powerful!”

“It sounds like the boss behind Tengda Games’ employees is even more mysterious now. Did you realize that he offered guidance on the games and the new businesses? He was also the one who put in place the desirable welfare and benefits. The boss of Tengda is the company’s spirit!”

“I’m going to apply to work at Tengda nowdon’t stop me!”

“I didn’t think that such a good-hearted enterprise existed in a second-tier city like Jingzhou. I always thought that small businesses in second-tier cities were out to scam others.”

“I really admire those who live in Jingzhou. Upwind Logistics delivers parcels to their doorsteps, they can go to Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to enjoy the good environment and play games on high-end computers, and they can even order healthy take-out from Fish-Catching Take-Out… ah, is it too late to move to Jingzhou now?”

“Instead of focusing on games, this games company is venturing into physical industries. Are they trying to burn all their excess money? Aren’t they afraid of incurring losses?”

“He already said that making a loss-incurring game has always been his aim, hehe.”

“When I heard Bao Xu’s interview, I thought he was putting on a show. What did he mean by ‘I don’t want a paid holiday’? However, after listening to Tengda’s boss, I realized where he got that attitude from. In terms of putting on a show, even ten Bao Xus would not compare to his boss!”

“He regrets joining the game industry, sales always mysteriously increase, and torturing gamers is his guilty pleasure… d*mn it, this guy is a machine! He’s showing off for 24 hours every day!”

“It’s a pity that we didn’t see the poser’s face in the end.”

“Ah, this is the highest level of posing one can achieve. ‘Nobody knows who I am, but the legend of my act will remain forever.’”

“That’s right, was there a similar interview done by Amusement Times or something before? I think this company’s boss is called Boss Pei. He has the same name as the boss in Boss Pei’s Daily Life. I think the short videos were inspired by him.”

“That’s right! This interview looks very similar to that one. The content is basically the same, but it’s just much more detailed and accurate.”

“Back then, I thought that the company had bribed Amusement Times. Now, even the official platform is pulling the same trick? Could this be real?”

“All in all, while there might be room to debate who the best local game designer is, there is no need to discuss who the most pretentious game designer is. Without a doubt, the prize goes to this Boss Pei!”

After reading the comments below, Pei Qian felt speechless.

I’m being wronged!

Pei Qian had never thought that he would be labeled as a pretentious prick.

I’ve already tried my best to be low-key. Why are people still misunderstanding me?

What’s more, I only told the truth. Every single word was from the bottom of my heart. It’s fine if Xia Jiang didn’t believe me, but why are the rest of you doubting me, too? Although a similar write-up had been produced before, my situation was very different then!

Amusement Times was not very popular.

The previous write-up also did not contain any photos or videos. It was not even reliable; all the content in that write-up had come from an unverified source.

Thus, although many media outlets carried that article, it did not cause a huge uproar. Most people laughed and forgot about the article after reading it. Nobody took it too seriously.

Yet, this time was different.

This professional interview team had the backing and creditworthiness of the official platform. That meant the write-up was extremely reliable!

What’s more, this write-up included many videos and photos. The videos were proof; it greatly boosted the credibility of this report!

Pei Qian began to picture these interviews spreading like wildfire. He was probably going to be in deep trouble. He leaned back in his chair and rested his forehead on his hand.

“What have I done…?”
