Pei Qian looked at the two of them. “That’s the general idea, understand?”

Wu Bin and Ma Yiqun nodded. “Understood!”

Pei Qian looked at their confident expressions and sniggered inwardly.

What do you know! I don’t know what went wrong again!

Forget it, forget it. He was used to it.

Seeing both of them look like they understood, and even exchanged a look to confirm that both sides had thought of the same thing, Pei Qian felt that no language would be able to help.

In any case, no matter what went wrong in the process, as long as the results were not wrong.

‘After sending Ma Yiqun and Wu Bin on their way, Pei Qian continued to think about the game.

He thought for another half an hour but still had no clue.

At that moment, the phone on the table rang.

He saw that it was Lin Chang from Shenhua Film.

“Eh? What’s he looking for me for?”

Pei Qian was a little confused. He did not seem to have any projects to work with Shenhua Film recently, but he still accepted them.

Lin Chang’s urgent voice came through the phone. “Boss Pei, there’s a very important news!”

“Ljust found out that Shengyun Express, Home Corporation, Wolf Fang Live-Stream, and Home Take-Out seem to be joining forces to target Tengda Corporation together!”

“Not only that, they seem to be planning to look for big companies in other fields such as games, movies, travel, and so on to rope them in to join this alliance!”

“This news was told to me by the CEO of a small film company. There might be no accurate news at the moment, but I think it’s very likely. I have to be wary!”

Pei Qian was a little confused. “Eh? Their business is completely unrelated. How can they work together? Could it be that Shengyun Express and the delivery guys are sharing the delivery guys? Or Home Corporation and Wolf Fang live-streaming a rental live-stream?”
Lin Chang did not know to laugh or to cry. “Of course not. However, even if these companies are not related, there is a way to work together. They will only attack Tengda in their own field!”

“For example, in express delivery, rental apartments, live-streams, take-out, games, and other fields, they can also compete against Tengda’s industries. Whether it’s a price war, public opinion war, or other methods, they can use them!”

“No matter how rich Tengda is, it’s impossible to start a price war in so many industries at the same time, right? It would probably not be able to take care of itself. That way, the market share of many industries might be quickly squeezed. Once such a situation occurs, it would be very difficult to turn the
tables!”

“Not only that, these companies have the shadow of large capital behind them. Once they see the hope of completely crushing Tengda, these large capital would probably encourage more companies to join. After all, they feel that Tengda wants to cut off their financial path. It’s not surprising that they
would do something to invite them.”

“Ican only say that Lu Mingliang’s words in the live-stream were a little rash. Actually, it was enough to point all the blame to Shengyun Express. It was really too early to make enemies with other similar internet companies.”
“If Tengda were to develop for another one or two years and completely crush these companies in terms of size, then we would definitely have a much higher chance of winning…”
As Pei Qian listened, he could not help but smile. “No, Lu Mingliang spoke at the right time. It’s perfect!”

He had not expected such a good thing to happen.

So many companies want to burn money with me?

Great, I’m so happy!

Pei Qian could not suppress his excitement. He suddenly felt that this settlement cycle seemed to have become extremely bright!

He had indeed spent a huge sum of money acquiring Finger Games previously. However, it was paid in installments after all. Given Tengda’s current ability to make money, it might not be able to guarantee a huge loss for this settlement.
He was mainly afraid that something unexpected would happen.

However, now, with so many companies burning money together, the situation was suddenly different!

Previously, even if Pei Qian wanted to burn money, he had to be very restrained. On one hand, he was worried that the business would expand too quickly. On the other hand, the system had strict restrictions. Thus, even if he wanted to organize events, they were basically small-scale. It was very difficult
to meet his burning goal.

However, now that these companies had started a money-burning war, the system would definitely relax its restrictions. There would be no need to worry about burning money!
Pei Qian could incur a maximum loss of 150 million yuan in this cycle. That was to convert 15 million yuan into his Personal Wealth. It could be said that as long as he succeeded, he would be able to earn back everything that he had not incurred previously.

Not only that, Pei Qian had three levels of insurance for this cycle.

First, acquiring Finger Games’ money would continue to cost in the future. What’s more, GOG and IOI’s combined plan had also delayed the new version development plan of the two games and various marketing activities. Revenue would be affected to a certain extent.
Second, Shengyun Express, Home Corporation, and these large companies were starting a money-burning war. Tengda would definitely follow them. The money-burning power would definitely be much greater than before.

Third, there would be a lot of charity for this cycle. What’s more, the cycle would be long. That meant that he could start on large-scale projects, including large-scale games, movies, haunted houses, and other large-scale infrastructure projects.

With three levels of insurance, how could he not incur losses?

How can that be?!

‘What’s more, Pei Qian felt that Lu Mingliang’s words came at the right time.

If it was really as Lin Chang said, Lu Mingliang would not AOE all the internet platform companies. Instead, he would wait for a year or two before he made a move. Tengda’s size would expand a few times. At that time, even if these large companies joined forces, it would probably not be able to cause
much loss to Tengda.

How could Pei Qian incur losses then?

However, the timing was just right.

It was impossible for Tengda to collapse because revenue was too stable and cash flow was too healthy. At most, the expansion of some businesses would be contained or the market share would shrink. Apart from that, it would be losing money.
The more money he lost, the happier Pei Qian would be!

Unexpectedly, Lu Mingliang had unexpectedly achieved another great contribution. He was really a trusted aide!

Lin Chang was stunned. “Huh? The timing is right? Perfect?”

That did not look good!

He pondered for a moment and said, “Boss Pei, were you prepared?”

Pei Qian sniggered. “You can say that.”

He had indeed been prepared. He had been looking forward to this since the first day he established Tengda!

It was a pity that at the beginning, these large companies treated Tengda as a small fry and did not take it seriously at all. Later on, they treated Tengda as a demon king. They did not dare to fight back even if they were bullied.

Now, they were finally working together to target Tengda. It was really worth celebrating!

Lin Chang heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, I’m relieved to see that you’re so confident. However, it’s better to be careful, especially since Home Corporation and Shengyun Express are already red-eyed. It’s not strange to do anything.”
Pei Qian nodded. “Don’t worry.”

After hanging up, Pei Qian almost could not suppress his excitement of wanting to drop to his knees in the office.

Alright!

Pei Qian would not think of any way to deal with it. In any case, he would burn money. Tengda would burn money with it if it had money. If it did not have money, he would watch it burn. In any case, he would just lose money happily.
Pei Qian planned to take advantage of this joyous event to go to the games department to take a look.

That was because what happened just now suddenly gave Pei Qian some inspiration.

The prototype of the game should be out as long as he went to the games department to feel a little more excitement and inspiration.

At that thought, Pei Qian slipped upstairs to Tengda Games.

He saw Yu Fei typing quickly on the keyboard as soon as he walked to the door.

From the looks of it, he might be writing a new book. He might be inspired and was writing very quickly.

Pei Qian came behind him with interest and realized that Yu Fei was indeed writing his new book. From the scene that he was writing, it seemed to be a Cyberpunk theme like Tomorrow is Beautiful. What’s more, it was quite fast. The writing software estimated the time to be about 3,000 yuan.
Now, Tengda Games did not have any very important development tasks. What’s more, Yu Fei had been specially allowed to write during working hours. Thus, everyone was used to this scene. No one bothered him.
Yu Fei felt that something was amiss after awhile. He turned around and was shocked.

“Boss Pei?”

He was a little surprised. When did Boss Pei come?

However, this surprise immediately turned into joy.

Yu Fei stood up and asked, “Boss Pei, have you found the new person-in-charge of the games department?”

Pei Qian sniggered. “No. I’m here for the new game.”

Yu Fei’s face fell instantly. “Boss Pei, this matter cannot be delayed any longer! Ghost General 2 has already been released. I’ve also completed my mission. My new book…”

Pei Qian smiled and said, “New book? I think it’s going quite well. You’re writing faster.”

Yu Fei was stunned for a moment. “Er… my writing speed has indeed increased. Perhaps it’s because I was more focused during working hours… No, that’s not the main point!”

“Boss Pei, my inspiration has been completely used up. Not a single drop is left!”

“The game mechanism of Eternal Reincarnation is derived from the plot. The highlight of Ghost General 2 is also the plot. I’ll admit it. However, I really don’t have any more plots to think about. It would be irresponsible to the new project to make me the chief designer…”
Pei Qian nodded slightly and asked, “What’s your new book about?”

Yu Fei was stunned. “Cyberpunk, what’s wrong?”

Pei Qian clapped. “The theme of the new game is also Cyberpunk! Don’t you think this is a coincidence?”

“See, as long as you continue to develop this game, Tengda will buy the copyright of your book and recommen¢ it to Zhongdian Chinese Network as a key project.”

“Isn’t it great?”

Yu Fei was stunned. “Ah, this…”

He had not expected this development.

The new game that Boss Pei wanted to create was based on Cyberpunk? It happened to be the same genre as his new book?

It couldn’t be that coincidental, right?

Could it be that Boss Pei did it on purpose? He specially made a new game based on Cyberpunk in order to keep me as the chief designer?

No, that’s not right. How is that possible…?

Yu Fei quickly abandoned this unrealistic idea and thought about the beautiful future painted by Boss Pei’s words.

It sounded like… These conditions could not be rejected!
