Chapter 1279: Tengda Has Matters That Are Worrying Too

Chapter 1279: Tengda Has Matters That Are Worrying Too

Half an hour later, Sun Xi knocked on Zhou Muyan’s office door.

“Boss Zhou, this is the name list for the entire project team of Bullet Hole 2.”

Sun Xi hesitated for a moment, and then said, “There might be a few candidates on the list. The main reason is that everyone is very eager to sign up. It’s not easy for me to decide who to use, so I wrote it all down. Please decide.”

Zhou Muyan took the proposal, not too surprised.

After all, everyone knew that Bullet Hole 2 was a key project for the workspace to work with Tengda and Long Yu Corporation. The chances of success were very high, so it was reasonable to apply here.

Zhou Muyan quickly scanned through the name list.

He might be the manager of the workspace but he might not know everyone. Thus, apart from the name, there was also a note on the list. It clearly stated which project team they were in.

Basically, Zhou Muyan had a rough idea of the capabilities of this person once the project team and position were mentioned.

He looked from the back to the front because the name list at the back was more or less confirmed. There were not many empty positions.

Anyone who could be selected to be on this list was a young man with potential in the various project teams. Anyone who could be remembered by Zhou Muyan among so many people was definitely not an ordinary person.

Therefore, Zhou Muyan focused on the positions that he had not decided on previously.

“Liu He… I remember that he performed quite well during the checkpoints previously. He was a very creative young man. Yes, it’s a good idea to train with Bullet Hole 2.”

“Zhu Yan did a good job with the art resources when she was developing Bullet Hole. I think Bullet Hole 2 should not be a problem.”

“Eh? Wasn’t Yang Yuhua working on the function of the Dark Fantasy project? The project is nearing its end and is about to be released. Does he not want the bonus anymore?”

“…Why is Old Han here? Isn’t this nonsense!”

There were no problems at the beginning. Zhou Muyan had an impression of most of the new names he saw. They were all young people with potential in the workroom. It was very reasonable for them to take the initiative to apply to join the Bullet Hole 2 project team.

However, Zhou Muyan was shocked when he saw the candidates for those key positions.

That was because there were names beyond his expectations!

Take the Dark Fantasy project for example. It was a mobile game that was established half a year ago. If nothing went wrong, it would be officially released within two months.

For game designers, the official release of the game was equivalent to a new year. That was because it meant the end of overtime, a period of relaxing work, and generous project bonuses.

Even though the quality of this mobile game could not be said to be the best, Zhou Muyan felt that it would not be a problem for the monthly gross to be above 10 million yuan after it was released.

In the end, several people from the Dark Fantasy project team actually voluntarily joined Bullet Hole 2?

According to Sun Strike Studios’ regulations, if they left halfway, they could still get three months of bonus from the old project team. However, the game would only be released two months later.

Didn’t that mean that these people had given up on all the bonuses other than the first month of release?

On the other hand, he was more or less done with developing Dark Fantasy. Even if two or three people left, it would not affect the overall situation. However, these people’s choices confused Zhou Muyan.

As for Old Han, he was even worse. He was the chief designer, and he had a huge bonus every month. How could he be willing to give up his position as the chief designer and go to Bullet Hole 2 to be the system designer?

Ridiculous!

Zhou Muyan suddenly realized that he seemed to have completely underestimated the attractiveness of Bullet Hole 2. Otherwise, why would the name on the list be more than three times the quota?

“Everyone is so confident in this game?”

“Especially Old Han, does he feel that the bonus from being a systems designer here is more than the original chief planner?”

“That’s not right…”

Zhou Muyan looked at the name list and then at Sun Xi. He asked uncertainly, “Could it be… that these people don’t want to work overtime?”

Sun Xi huffed and puffed but did not say anything.

Obviously, he had tacitly agreed.

It was not easy for him to deny it. After all, this was too obvious. Zhou Muyan was not stupid. How could he muddle over?

He could not possibly say that these people were purely for dreams, right?

Zhou Muyan was furious.

“How can this be?”

“I’ve repeatedly emphasized that Bullet Hole 2 is the studio’s key project. A game that has invested a huge sum of money and used Boss Pei’s ideas cannot fail!”

“In the end, this group of people is good. All of them plan to retire here!”

“How good can this project be if you don’t have any fighting spirit?”

“Get rid of all of them! I can tell at a glance that they’re here to avoid working overtime. I can’t accept any of them!”

Zhou Muyan had his reasons for being angry. He had agreed to the Bullet Hole 2 project team not working overtime mainly to give Min Jingchao face. He did not really agree with the working method of not working overtime.

It was just like the famous saying of many people: It did not matter whether it was money or not, nor did it matter if they worked overtime. The key was in their attitude.

This might be nonsense but many people still believed it.

The people on the list were not registering for overtime. To Zhou Muyan, their working attitude was obviously suspicious!

Sun Xi quickly said, “Boss Zhou, don’t be angry. I think we have to ask for Jingchao’s opinion on this.”

“To be honest, it’s human nature not to want to work overtime. Jingchao should have considered the problems that this brings when he made this request.”

“If Jingchao doesn’t mind, it shouldn’t be a big deal to let these people join. It won’t be too late to change if they really have a problem with their working attitude.”

“At least from the looks of the current situation, the name list is indeed filled with our studio’s elites. Such a project team is very capable.”

“What’s more, it’s hard to tell which people are here for the sake of not working overtime and who really want to achieve results…”

After hearing Sun Xi’s words, Zhou Muyan fell silent.

That was indeed the case.

Old Han and the others had obviously been treated much better than Bullet Hole 2 in their original projects, but they had voluntarily demoted and jumped over. Their intentions were too obvious.

However, what if others signed up because they did not want to work overtime?

He could not use a lie detector to test everyone’s true thoughts.

Even if he did, he might end up disappointed.

Think a little bolder, perhaps everyone was here for no overtime?

Zhou Muyan was speechless. He handed the name list back. “Alright, go and communicate with Min Jingchao.”

“The people on this list are definitely capable enough to take on these positions. It might even be a waste.”

“If Min Jingchao has no objections, you’ll coordinate and make the decision. Just send me a list at the end.”

Sun Xi nodded. “Alright, Boss Zhou. I’ll ask Min Jingchao for his opinion now.”

…

At that moment, Min Jingchao was sitting at his desk, seriously editing his design draft.

Sun Xi’s work desk was right next to him. This was to facilitate communication between the two of them.

In terms of positioning, Sun Xi was the chief planner. He was in charge of pushing forward work progress and coordinating the work content of the various departments.

This configuration was similar to that of Ocean Stronghold’s Bao Xu and Huang Sibo. One was in charge of designing while the other was in charge of pushing.

“Jingchao, I have something to tell you…”

Sun Xi explained the selection process in its entirety. Then, he asked, “What do you think about choosing these people…?”

Min Jingchao was a little confused. “What’s there to be conflicted about? Can’t we just shortlist them based on their actual ability?”

“Pay attention to the ability to innovate and learn in functional design positions. Also, their ability on accumulation and experience in systems and design.”

Sun Xi reminded him. “What Boss Zhou means is that he is afraid that someone inside would not work overtime and affect the working atmosphere of the entire project team.”

Min Jingchao was in disbelief. “How would it affect the working atmosphere of the project team?”

“Isn’t it normal to not want to work overtime? Everyone in Tengda doesn’t want to work overtime. It doesn’t affect our working atmosphere.”

“What’s more, this is a form of motivation and a screening mechanism. In order not to be kicked out, everyone will definitely work hard.”

Sun Xi’s jaw dropped.

You can understand it that way?

Indeed, from another perspective, the answer seemed to be completely different?

From Zhou Muyan’s point of view, joining the Bullet Hole 2 project team in order not to work overtime was obviously a show of wanting to slack off and slack off. His working attitude was a problem.

However, from Min Jingchao’s point of view, joining the Bullet Hole 2 project team without overtime was obviously a form of motivation. The working attitude had even improved!

Sun Xi vaguely felt that something was amiss, but he could not put his finger on it.

He thought about it for a while but could not figure it out. He decided to listen to Min Jingchao.

After all, Min Jingchao was the one who had the final say in this project. Boss Zhou had to listen to his decisions.

“Alright, I’ll set the name list according to this standard.”

Sun Xi did a simple screening and eliminated some people. Soon, he finished the list.

He scanned the list. It could be said that it was very luxurious. All of them were very capable people.

Sun Xi suddenly thought of something and asked softly, “Jingchao, I’ll ask you a question privately. Does Tengda really not work overtime? Not even for a day?”

Min Jingchao pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, “It’s impossible not to work overtime. Sometimes, we have to add some urgent missions.”

Sun Xi nodded slightly. Thinking that was more like it.

How could they not work overtime in an emergency? Tengda could not change the objective rules of the game industry.

Thus, it was just a matter of how much overtime he worked. It was alright, it was alright. That was still acceptable.

Min Jingchao added, “However, the overtime pay is three times the salary. What’s more, this situation is very rare. There is an overtime quota.”

Sun Xi: “…”

He was already envious of three times the salary. Why was there a quota for overtime?

What amazing rules!

He asked again, “What about the special departments? For example, Upwind Logistics can’t not work overtime, right?”

Min Jingchao answered, “They schedule their working hours. The overall working duration is about the same.”

Even though he had already expected this, Sun Xi was still shocked and did not speak for a long time.

He nodded silently. “No wonder Tengda is called heaven. Everyone wants to go. It’s perfect for the employees!”

After a moment of silence, Min Jingchao said, “Not really.”

“There are also some very frustrating things.”

Sun Xi: “For example?”

Min Jingchao: “A paid holiday.”

Sun Xi: “…”
