Losing Money to Be a Tycoon - Chapter 1199
Chapter 1199: Just Waiting For The Fish to Take The Bait
Pei Qian walked around the special training base again, feeling very satisfied overall.
“Boss Pei, that’s the general idea. Do you think there’s any room for improvement?” Bao Xu asked.
Pei Qian shook his head. “There’s no need to change it. It’s quite perfect.”
Bao Xu was both surprised and pleasantly surprised.
As far as he knew, Boss Pei rarely said things like there was no need to change!
It looked like he had done very well this time since Boss Pei could not find any problems!
Was it because he was making a plan with strong emotions and making the plan perfect, or was it because he had accidentally done it to the extreme in certain aspects and perfectly met Boss Pei’s requirements?
No matter what, this evaluation was too precious!
However, the reason why Pei Qian felt that there was no need to change was mainly that his and Bao Xu’s thinking were completely on the right track this time!
Boss Pei’s goal was to make everyone suffer, and Bao Xu’s goal was also to make everyone suffer.
Bao Xu’s emotions were even more intense.
Thus, Pei Qian felt that there was no need to make changes. Even if there was, he would consider it in the future.
At the special training base in the first stage of the torturous travel, it was perfect to achieve this level.
Pei Qian walked around again and sighed. “The only pity is that the special training base is still quite empty at the moment. There are not many people.”
Bao Xu quickly explained, “Don’t worry about this Boss Pei. The relevant personnel for the special training base has more or less been recruited. That includes the cleanliness of the venue, the maintenance of the equipment, the coaches in charge of physical training, the nutritionist, the field survival expert, and other staff. They are all ready. They can start work in the near future.”
Pei Qian shook his head. “That’s not what I mean. I mean, we’re short of customers!”
“I’ll make a call to ask when Huang Sibo and Hu Xianbin will be back.”
Pei Qian took out his cell phone and put it on speaker before calling Huang Sibo.
After a few rings, the other party picked up.
“Hello? Boss Pei! Is there something you need me for?”
Pei Qian sniggered. “Of course not. It’s just that I remember that it’s almost a month since you guys went on a holiday. I’m just concerned about you guys. How are you? Did you have fun? Did it go smoothly?”
Huang Sibo quickly said, “Don’t worry, Boss Pei. Everything is going well! The hotel is very comfortable, and we’re eating local delicacies. We’re resting very well.”
“Once I get back from the trip, I can start working immediately!”
Pei Qian sniggered inwardly.
Enter work immediately after traveling?
Dream on!
How could there be such a good thing in the world?
His cell phone was on speaker mode and Bao Xu heard everything clearly.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, his eyes revealing killing intent.
Huang Sibo, you’re really something! I went on a holiday to suffer and yet here you are, touring and enjoying life!
How could anyone tolerate that?
Arrange, he had to arrange!
I won’t stop until you eat three tons of dry meat!
Pei Qian cleared his throat. “There’s no rush for work.”
“You guys, don’t be too tired from going out to play. Take care of your bodies. There’s no need to work so hard for the last few days. If you really can’t, rest in the hotel. There will be many more opportunities in the future since it’s a trip.”
Huang Sibo quickly said, “Alright, thank you for your concern, Boss Pei. We will take care of our energy and not tire ourselves out from playing. It will not affect our work when we get back.”
Pei Qian sniggered again.
Who told you to conserve your energy because they did not want to affect your work?
I was afraid that you would be too tired from playing and would not be able to take the special training, alright?
If Huang Sibo played too much outside over the last few days and returned exhausted and even had some minor problems, wouldn’t all of Bao Xu’s hard work be wasted?
It did not matter if he misunderstood. As long as Huang Sibo and Hu Xianbin conserved their energy and did not tire themselves out in advance, it would be fine.
“Alright, have fun. See you in Jingzhou.”
Pei Qian hung up.
Work was done!
All the preparation work for the torturous trip was ready. They were just waiting for the fish to take the bait.
Pei Qian looked at Bao Xu. “How many people are you planning to recruit for this special training camp for suffering?”
Bao Xu answered truthfully. “The maximum capacity of the entire special training base can accommodate about twenty people. It will last for a month. During that time, they will keep their cell phones. Daily training, food, accommodation, and so on will all be arranged.”
“However, twenty people would be a little cramped. It might not be so free and smooth to arrange. Therefore, only ten people would come in the early stages. That would be relatively easier to take care of. In the future, when the entire process is more proficient, we will gradually add more people.”
Pei Qian nodded. He was very satisfied when he heard that he had to train for a month and that he had to keep his cell phone.
That would definitely delay his work, right?
“Let’s have ten people first then. Huang Sibo and Hu Xianbin have already reserved two seats. As for the other eight…”
Pei Qian silently calculated the people in charge of the small notebook in his heart.
“Xiao Peng of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Rui Yuchen of Fish-Catching Take-Out, Ye Zhizhou of Shang Yang Games, Shen Renjie of the Nag artificial intelligence laboratory, Guo Licheng of Deposit Fitness, He Desheng of Dream Realization Ventures, Chen Yufeng of Bunny Tail Live-Stream, Ma Yiqun of Zhongdian Chinese Network…”
“Alright, that’s all for now.”
It was a pity that there were not many slots. However, these ten people had basically covered all of Tengda’s main businesses that earned more money.
There were also other industries, such as Useful APP, Thriller Hostel, Upwind Logistics, and so on. However, these industries basically did not make much money and were even in a state of loss. Thus, they did not need to be prioritized. They just had to wait for the second batch.
Take Lu Mingliang of Upwind Logistics for example. He was Boss Pei’s trusted right-hand man and would definitely be reluctant to send him to the training camp.
What if Lu Mingliang handed his job to his subordinates and made Upwind Logistics profitable? Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?
He had to prioritize the profitable businesses.
For key departments like Tengda Games, Shang Yang Games, and Fei Huang Workspace, they could even arrange for two rounds. The two main person-in-charge would play twice a year, once for half a year. The connection was truly seamless.
Take Fei Huang Workspace for example. Pei Qian had been making arrangements for Huang Sibo previously but Zhu Xiaoce could use Huang Sibo as a shield and have no worries.
He had to make arrangements for Zhu Xiaoce as well. He could not let him escape!
Bao Xu silently noted down the name list and could not help but feel shocked.
Good lord, Boss Pei was going to wipe out all the heads of Tengda’s departments!
Choose one popular department each. It could be said that they were impartial and suffered equally.
You support my work so much!
In Tengda, no employee was innocent when Bao Xu went on a holiday. The people in charge of these departments were especially not innocent.
Therefore, arranging for them first gave Bao Xu the joy of taking revenge.
He immediately expressed his stance. “Don’t worry, Boss Pei. We’ll start training them immediately next month. We’ll definitely arrange everything clearly!”
Pei Qian patted him on the shoulder in satisfaction. “Alright! I don’t have to worry about you doing things. You’ll definitely train yourself to death!”
…
…
August 31st, Friday…
In the blink of an eye, another week passed.
Pei Qian was quite comfortable this week.
The special training base for the suffering trip was more or less ready. The first batch of special training names had also been selected. They would be ready for Huang Sibo and Hu Xianbin to return at the beginning of the month.
The situation at Dawn Games platform was not bad. No good news was the best news.
After the bug-searching competition officially began, a large number of players flooded into Dawn games platform. There was no lack of players who wanted to take advantage of the situation and profit.
The staff of the Dawn Games platform went all out during this week. They exposed the fake videos that did not meet the criteria one by one and released them publicly. They repeatedly explained the corresponding rules and even invited a portion of gamers who were cursing on the internet to Jingzhou to find bugs.
In the end, not a single person came.
Obviously, most people who were cursing online also knew that they could not replay these bugs at the scene…
However, this did not affect them from continuing to bicker online. They cursed and swore that Dawn Games platform was marketing and playing tricks.
The current situation was still in a relatively chaotic state. Many players did not find any bugs after searching for a long time, but there were still some players leading the way online for various reasons.
A group of gamers had even threatened to take down all the games on the platform through non-recommended methods once the event ended to show the official platform.
The official platform would decide whether or not to take a game off the shelves in the end. However, the official platform had already given the rights to take the game off the shelves to players after all. If they went back on their word, it would ultimately cause some very unfavorable public opinion.
All in all, the future of the entire platform was not clear. What’s more, from the looks of the current situation, it was most likely a tragedy.
Pei Qian was already very satisfied with this. It was worth celebrating that Dawn games platform was about to become a real money-burning tree!
As he was thinking about this, a knock on his door rang out.
Meng Chang arrived.
“Come, come, sit.”
Pei Qian could not help but grin when he saw Meng Chang.
I’ve nurtured you for so long in vain. You’ve finally understood!
How much commission could he get this time?
Pei Qian opened the analysis report on his laptop and directly pulled it to reflect the specific amount of commission.
98,000 yuan!
Pei Qian could not help but mutter “Eh” when he saw this number.
It was slightly lower than he had imagined.
After all, the maximum commission he would give Meng Chang was 200,000 yuan. The commission was proportional to the spent publicity budget. It was inverse to the publicity effect.
Logically speaking, the case this time should be considered relatively successful, right? Pei Qian’s publicity plan for Doubt VR glasses had only gotten a guaranteed commission and did not last until the end of the month.
In the end, it was less than 100,000 yuan?
However, after taking a closer look at the detailed contents of the report, Pei Qian finally understood.
The team in charge of data analysis was very rigorous. They strictly followed Pei Qian’s instructions.
The so-called publicity effect might have a positive or negative effect.
If negative news became too big, it would also create popularity for projects and achieve publicity effect.
Thus, if he wanted to get the highest commission of 200,000 yuan, he had to spend a huge amount of publicity funds and then quietly do it.
