Losing Money to Be a Tycoon-Chapter 1671: Interview

The door of the conference room opened with a soft creak.

"Please wait here for a moment. Our boss will be here soon." The receptionist opened the door and left.

Pei Qian nodded and adjusted his shirt. Then, he habitually sat at the head of the conference table.

There was a couple of bottled water on the conference table. He took one and opened it.

He waited in boredom.

Not long after, a man in his early thirties walked into the meeting room.

The man was stunned upon seeing the scene in the conference room.

Pei Qian looked at him and pointed to the seat beside him. "Sit anywhere you like. Don't be restrained."

The man was dumbfounded, but he still sat down for some reason.

He casually flipped through the resume in front of him. "Let's talk about your resume… Hmm?"

Halfway through, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Isn't this my own resume!

He realized that the name and photo of the resume were clearly his own when he flipped it open.

Oh, yes, I'm the one who's here for the interview…

For a moment, the atmosphere in the conference room became a little awkward, as if a breeze had blown past. A crow above his head cawed.

Pei Qian looked at the man opposite him.

He was used to sitting at the head of the table as soon as he entered the meeting room. Therefore the interviewer sat in the position of the interviewee by accident.

The boss of the company took the interviewer's seat under Pei Qian's invisible nudge as the seat at the head of the table was taken by the time he entered the room.

It was as if Pei Qian was the boss and the boss was here for an interview.

That was a little awkward.

He cleared his throat and tried to get up. "I'm sorry."

He did not expect the boss to be so easy-going. He smiled. "It's fine. We're all in the gaming industry and are not so bothered by rigidness!"

He paused for a moment and said, "Please believe that our company is definitely thirsty for outstanding chief planners!"

He took the resume from Pei Qian's hand and flipped through it as he spoke.

Pei Qian sat back down and waited quietly.

Why did Pei Qian come for the interview?

It was a long story…

Pei Qian had returned to Tengda Corporation's headquarters more than a year ago. He had been wandering around the country ever since then. Oh, no, he wasn't wandering— He was traveling and improving himself at the same time.

On this day, he wandered— oh no, traveled around the capital— and suddenly realized that a company nearby was "recruiting a chief planner".

Thus, Pei Qian came for an interview on a whim. He wanted to see if he was qualified enough to be the chief planner after studying and improving for so long.

However, he did not expect that he was so used to being the boss and almost made a big mistake the moment he entered.

Fortunately, the boss looked quite easygoing.

There wasn't much on the resume, so he was done reading in no time.

The boss looked up and said, "Let me introduce myself first. I'm Chen Yu, the owner and producer of Dream Stealing.

"We're a start-up company, and the previous chief planner wasn't very reliable. He ran away halfway. To be honest, we are currently in a relatively critical situation."

"Therefore, we are indeed thirsty for talent."

"It's just that… Your resume doesn't seem to have much to do with the gaming industry, right? Will you be able to perform as the chief planner?"

Chen Yu's words were more reserved. In fact, Pei Qian's resume was indeed a little unimaginable.

That was because he could not write about the things he did in Tengda…

Thus, after pondering for a while, Pei Qian wrote down some of the awards he had received in university. He basically wrote everything other than winning another bottle of black tea after drinking one bottle.

Also, it was indeed not easy to write about what he had been doing for the past two to three years after graduating from university on his resume.

He couldn't possibly say that he had been a homebody, right?

After thinking about it, he finally arranged a position for himself in Fei Huang Workspace that was more inclined to doing odd jobs.

This way, it would not be particularly eye-catching and would still make some sense.

Therefore, the work experience that finally appeared on his resume did not have much to do with the gaming industry.

He smiled slightly. "Actually, I once studied under two seniors, He An and Qiu Hong, who were first-rate game designers in the country. I wrote down my learning experience."

Chen Yu was stunned for a moment. He took a closer look and found that it was true.

"Oh?"

He looked a little confused. It was obvious that he could not understand the young man opposite him through his resume.

If he could get guidance from He An and Qiu Hong when he was in university, why didn't he join a game company after graduation? Why did he go to Fei Huang Workspace?

Everyone knew that Fei Huang Workspace only made movies, not games.

Suddenly, Chen Yu seemed to have thought of something. "Hey, you seem to be in the video…"

He smiled and nodded. "Yes, I acted in 'Boss Pei's Daily Life', so I'm a little fated with them.

"You can say that I'm… Boss Pei's stand-in actor, yes."

Chen Yu was instantly excited. "Oh? Is that so?"

"I remember now. You're Boss Pei's stand-in actor! Nice to meet you!"

He sized him up carefully. "Honestly, I didn't recognize you. How can a change in hairstyle affect a person so much?"

Pei Qian kept smiling.

"Then you must have seen Boss Pei in person? What kind of person is he?" Chen Yu asked excitedly.

"There are all kinds of rumors online. Some say that he's a domineering CEO, some say that he's a saint, and some say…"

The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched as he quickly stopped him. "Actually, Boss Pei is just an ordinary person. He has been made into a God-like being."

"In my opinion, I think he's a pitiful person who can't get what he wants."

Chen Yu was a little surprised. "Oh? A pitiful person who can't get what he wants?

"Why would Boss Pei be a person who can't get what he wants? Didn't he succeed in all the fields he wanted to develop without exception?"

"Are you saying that… He still feels that he has not achieved his goal even though he has achieved so much? That's why he feels the pain that he is unable to get what he wants?"

"… It is not wrong for you to understand it that way."

Chen Yu was very happy. "I have no doubt about your game design ability since you're from Tengda!"

"Eh, but why did you leave Fei Huang Workspace? Tengda Corporation… That's a place that no one wants to leave after joining, right?

"Moreover, Fei Huang Workspace is one of the core departments!"

Pei Qian was silent for a moment. "Actually, I want to come out and seek some new challenges because I think that this company is too perfect."

Chen Yu nodded in agreement. "Yes, that makes sense!"

Pei Qian was a little surprised. He managed to fool him just like that?

Alright, it seemed that Tengda's halo had already reached an unimaginable level. He would be able to attract enough attention as long as he was slightly related to Tengda even if it was thousands of miles away in Beijing or a game company that had nothing to do with Tengda.

Chen Yu looked at his resume again. "This is what I think about work."

"To be honest, the fact that you've met Boss Pei and worked with top game designers like Huang Sibo makes me feel that you're more than qualified to be the chief planner."

"After all, those who can enter Tengda are undoubtedly talented. Those who come out of Tengda are even more unbelievable…

"However… My company's conditions are indeed average. I'm afraid it's not a very good platform."

"How about this? I'll hire you as a special consultant. You don't need to care about the specific works. You just need to come up with ideas. Your salary would be paid according to the standards of the chief planner. Any dividends will also be based on industry standards if the game is profitable. What do you think?"

Pei Qian was a little surprised. Wasn't this better than the conditions of a chief planner?

He would not have to be responsible for the management of the project, nor did he have to rush the progress. He just had to come up with ideas.

However, on second thought, Chen Yu might have his own considerations.

Recognition and respect for him was one aspect, but another aspect was also to control risks.

The so-called special consultant was equivalent to a fake title. If what Boss Pei said made sense, Chen Yu could promote it himself. If what Boss Pei said made no sense or was obviously full of mistakes, Chen Yu could control the direction slightly or simply terminate the contract so that the damage would not be too great.

Many things would not be so flexible if Pei Qian was the chief planner. Even if the contract with him was terminated, there would be a huge hole in the future that would be difficult to clean up.

However, he did not have any objections to this. This was human nature.

Chen Yu didn't have the Wealth Conversion System as a boss, so he was generous and had good foresight to be able to give Pei Qian such a treatment.

Pei Qian nodded. "Of course."

Chen Yu was very happy. "Okay, wishing that we'll have a happy cooperation in advance!"
