Chapter 1400: Animal Wouldn’t Backstab Me, Would It?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He was stunned for a moment before asking, “Is it the same when you finish paying your debt?”

Pei Qian nodded. “Yes.”

Of course, the timing was the same. The earlier you repay your debt, the earlier you complete more reverse publicity. Then, I would lose money faster.

What was the difference between earlier and later?

Meng Chang was a little confused.

He had thought that Boss Pei would say things like ‘you can come and go freely when the time comes’ and let him choose.

That way, Meng Chang could relax and repay his debt. If he were to choose, he would definitely continue to stay in Tengda.

However, he did not expect Boss Pei to say that.

What did that mean?

Wasn’t Boss Pei nurturing me as the successor of the Pei family’s publicity method? Why did he say that there was no need to stay in Tengda after paying the debt?

That was strange and illogical.

However, Meng Chang did not say anything more. This question was very deep. It was definitely not something that could be figured out in two or three minutes. He could not possibly keep thinking about this question while staying in Boss Pei’s office, right?

Thus, he decided to leave first. Then, he would slowly think about what Boss Pei meant.

…

Meng Chang came to the Advertisement and marketing department and sat down at his desk after leaving Boss Pei’s office.

He did not think about the new publicity plan immediately. Instead, he thought hard about what Boss Pei’s previous words meant.

At first glance, Boss Pei’s words were very strange. They did not match Meng Chang’s previous deductions about Boss Pei.

However, Meng Chang believed that Boss Pei definitely did not say that for no reason. There must be a deeper logic behind it.

“If we want to understand Boss Pei’s deeper intentions, we have to start with Boss Pei’s overall plan.”

“Boss Pei has a clear plan for Tengda’s development. He imparted his game production method, marketing publicity method, investment method, Tengda spirit, and so on to the people in charge under him through nurturing the various department heads.”

“Once the people in charge are nurtured into talents who can take charge of things on their own, the entire Tengda can continue to operate on a set track without Boss Pei’s will. Then, Boss Pei can relax and retire.”

“Boss Pei’s arrangements for me should be the successor and promoter of the Pei family’s publicity method.”

“However, as the successor, shouldn’t Boss Pei hope that I remain in Tengda?”

“There’s definitely no problem with my understanding of Boss Pei. In other words… there’s a problem with my understanding of the ‘successor’?”

“The successor that Boss Pei is considering is different from the one in the general sense?”

“Yes, that should be the reason!”

“Boss Pei needs the Pei family’s publicity method to continue and spread, not to stop at me.”

“Other things like game production methods, investment methods, Tengda spirit, and so on have to be passed on. Once it spreads, it cannot stop at being the person-in-charge.”

“That’s why Boss Pei kept transferring the person-in-charge of the games department to other positions, hoping to speed up this heritage!”

Meng Chang could not help but feel emotional again after figuring this out. Boss Pei was indeed Boss Pei. He could see so far!

Ordinary people would not realize that anything was amiss. There was a problem with Boss Pei!

Many bosses of large companies often faced the predicament of not having a successor, so that they had to work until they died of old age and could not retire at all.

That was because there was no suitable successor. Once he retired, the company would collapse.

Thus, the presidents of many large companies would consciously nurture successors. As long as the successors could succeed, large companies would be able to live well with their previous good foundation and market advantage.

Whether or not he could nurture an outstanding successor was obviously an important criterion for whether a big company’s president was outstanding.

However, that alone was obviously not enough.

Boss Pei was not satisfied with this at all. Instead, he went one level higher.

It was far from enough to nurture one or a few successors. That was because some successors might look good at first, but they would become worse as time went by. This kind of failure could be due to ability or attitude. Either their ability had slipped or their thoughts had changed.

Even if he was lucky and the successor he nurtured succeeded, what about after that?

Could he have such good luck after nurturing a successor?

It was just like the feudal countries in the ancient times. Of course, it was a good thing for the emperor to have a wise son. However, could you guarantee that the prince of every emperor in the future would be very wise?

If this continued, he would regress sooner or later. It would become worse with each generation. This was an irreversible process.

According to the easiest way, Boss Pei could have imparted his game production method to the person-in-charge of the games department. Then, he would not have allowed him to move away. He would have been working on games and taking over his job.

It was just like some sect grandmasters in martial arts novels. If their disciples’ qualifications were not good, they would impart many of their ultimate skills to different disciples.

That way, his ultimate arts would not be lost and the sect would not decline in a short period of time.

However, this way, the final outcome would definitely be worse than the previous generation.

Boss Pei knew human nature very well. Thus, he did not trust people.

That was not to say that he did not trust the people in charge under him. Instead, it was to say that he knew the weaknesses of human nature, knew how to plan ahead, plan in the long term, and try to minimize the impact of subjectivity on the route that he designed.

Boss Pei chose a more long-term method. By constantly mobilizing the people in charge and nurturing their comprehensive abilities, everyone would be able to take charge of things on their own. At the same time, people with potential in the department could be promoted quickly and master the skills of the person-in-charge.

That way, there would be no risk of a sudden gap.

What if Boss Pei only passed the Pei family’s publicity method to Meng Chang? What if Meng Chang was poached away midway? What if he started his own business? What if he simply betrayed the Tengda spirit?

Meng Chang realized that he should be a springboard in Boss Pei’s eyes to pass on the Pei family’s publicity method.

After figuring this out, the meaning behind Boss Pei’s words was not difficult to understand.

It would definitely be many years later if Meng Chang paid off his debt according to Boss Pei’s plan. The Pei family’s publicity method should already have branches all over Tengda. Meng Chang was not the only one who had it.

Under such circumstances, there was indeed no need for Meng Chang to stay.

That was because anyone could do the publicity work, and Meng Chang should go to society and play a greater role and value. He should not continue to stay in Tengda and work in the old profession of marketing publicity.

“In that case, Boss Pei still highly approves of me. He did not completely see me as a subordinate and successor. Instead, he saw me as an independent person who was not attached to Tengda? He encouraged me to start a business in society after I graduated and to show greater value?”

“However, if I end my debt now, what should I say…”

Meng Chang added before he left, asking if it would be the same when he finished paying his debt. Boss Pei gave an affirmative answer.

That confused Meng Chang.

According to Boss Pei’s plan, it would take at least a few years for the Pei family’s publicity method to spread in Tengda.

Meng Chang was so smart that he had only learned something after learning the Pei family’s publicity method for more than a year. How could it be done in a day if he wanted to pass it down layer by layer?

However, if Meng Chang were to pay his debt now and leave Tengda before the Pei family’s publicity method was completed, why was that?

“Could it be that… Boss Pei thinks that I’m not on the right track because of this?”

Meng Chang suddenly thought of this possibility.

Obviously, according to the normal process, Meng Chang would spend a few years learning and promoting the Pei family’s publicity method in Tengda. After promoting it, he would be able to rely on commission to pay his debt.

However, if he had paid his debts much earlier, it would mean that he had used the surplus of the Pei family’s publicity method to cheat others.

Boss Pei obviously did not support these methods.

Was Boss Pei letting Meng Chang leave immediately because he felt that he could not fuel this evil trend and could not cause problems to the conveyance of the Pei family’s publicity method?

Meng Chang broke out in cold sweat at that thought.

Fortunately, he did not tell Boss Pei about the debt. Otherwise, he would be in deep trouble!

Boss Pei would definitely chase him out of Tengda then.

To Meng Chang, paying his debts was no longer his first goal. He was more concerned about how to learn true skills from Boss Pei.

Thus, he could not repay his debts now!

Not only would he not be able to repay his debts, but he would also have to think of a way to distribute a portion of the money that he had earned previously.

It was impossible for him to completely give up earning extra money. Meng Chang was not as smart as Boss Pei, but he could still use this money to do something within his means in order to feel at ease.

At that time, even if Boss Pei really found out that Meng Chang was earning extra money, he would probably let him off as long as he knew that he had used this money to do a good deed.

Meng Chang felt enlightened and quickly made a decision after figuring all of this out.

…

Pei Qian continued to think about spending money after sending Meng Chang off.

“Who would have thought that something would go wrong with the reliable ‘Successor’?”

“Sigh, these people in charge are really unreliable one after another!”

“I might as well raise an animal instead of these people in charge. At the very least, the animals would not think about stabbing me in the back after they were full. However, humans are different…”

“Eh, wait a moment…”

“Animal?”

Pei Qian’s eyes lit up as he had an idea.

Since the amusement park was already open, could he open a zoo?

The animals were so simple-minded. They would only eat and sleep every day. They would not stab him in the back anymore, right?

What’s more, the cost of the zoo was huge. It had to give the animals the best living environment, food, accommodation, and transportation… Oh no, the animals did not have to think about clothes and activities. However, just staying and eating was very expensive!

What’s more, there was no limit to providing a better living environment for animals.

Opening a zoo would cost a lot in the early stages. It would also require a lot of funds to maintain operations. The follow-up expansion would also be very strong.

It was perfect!
