Chapter 142: Chapter 142

Chapter 142 c

“I have long heard that Boss Pei and Tengda Games are black horses in Jingzhou City. Every game that you made became popular and would be on the popular searches on Weibo. This makes us so envious.” Du Ruijie sipped his tea and exclaimed.

Pei Qian replied politely, “Actually, I am very envious of Boss Du, too.”

Du Ruijie was momentarily stunned. “What are you envious of?”

“Umm… I am envious of your luck.” Pei Qian originally wanted to say that he was ‘envious of his ability to lose money’. However, he suddenly realized that those words were not suitable to say out loud and changed his words suddenly.

Du Ruijie laughed out loud. “Boss Pei, you are so hilarious. It seems like I am indeed pretty lucky. If other companies faced such a situation, I suppose that they will shut down in no time. I am indeed lucky that Boss Pei is willing to acquire the company.

“Boss Pei, I am very thankful that you are willing to save Shang Yang Games. Therefore, I will save all those tricks and tell you the absolute truth.

“In reality, I bear the greatest responsibility for the bad operations of the company. If you could truly save Shang Yang Games from its demise and give it a new life, I am even willing to give the company to you directly.

“However…

“Firstly, this company was opened by me and another brother of mine. We two had invested a lot of blood and sweat into it. Secondly, the employees of the company are all my brothers. I hope that I can try my best to find a good place for them to go to…” Du Ruijie sipped on his tea as he spoke.

Although Du Ruijie said a lot of nice words, Pei Qian knew internally that Boss Du wanted to raise the price.

The focus of his words was after the word ‘however!

All in all, Boss Du wanted to emphasize his struggles when opening the company and how good these employees are. He also wanted to point out that there was still hope to revive those two games that were still operating and that they could profit again with just some effort.

Pei Qian listened quietly and smiled.

Du Ruijie talked for an entire ten minutes. He introduced the situation in Shang Yang Games and added a lot of personal opinions. He appeared very prepared and amiable.

Pei Qian did not respond to his speech. He wasn’t interested in this content at all.

Maybe because of Pei Qian’s age, Boss Du wanted to bluff him and convince him to list a higher price. However, he had no idea that Pei Qian was not interested in that at all and was not in charge of that. Those were all part of Assistant Xin’s job.

Assistant Xin listened quietly behind Pei Qian and continuously recorded the information down on her notebook. She was prepared to start slashing the price anytime with Pei Qian’s orders.

“Boss Pei, this is all. I’ll give you a very reasonable price. I’ll wipe off the remaining digits and give you an exact figure: one million. What do you think of it?”

Boss Du had a ‘this is such a bargain for you’ look on his face.

Pei Qian did not respond and instead asked casually, “I remember that your company’s previous chief planner was called Liu. Where is he?”

Du Ruijie was stunned. He then shook his head slightly. “Oh. Old Liu. He resigned a few days ago. I think he found another company to work for.

“Rest assured, Boss Pei. Xiaobin had always been our systems designer. His abilities are incredible. He has been promoted to the chief planner and can definitely take over Old Liu’s responsibilities! Wait. No. He might even perform better than Old Liu!”

Resigned?

This…

Pei Qian was a little troubled.

Old Liu found out that the company was about to fail and had found his next job beforehand. That’s true. It wasn’t difficult for Old Liu to find a job given his experience in planning games and his brilliant resume.

However, that was a little pitiful. This fantastic company became incomplete before he had even bought it over. Then again, Pei Qian did not take that to heart and did not plan to get Old Liu back either.

The company was only short of a chief planner. It could continue operating by finding someone to take up that role.

However, Pei Qian glanced over at Wang Xiaobin and felt that he could not be the chief planner.

According to what Boss Du said, he was the systems designer for previous projects. He had a deep understanding of the projects and was very capable. That should be true. In that case, Pei Qian definitely could not make him the chief planner. What if he was more capable than Old Liu? He had to change to another person.

Pei Qian contemplated that internally and did not display it on his face.

“Can I try out the two games produced by the company?” Pei Qian asked.

Du Ruijie nodded and replied, “Of course. Xiaobin, bring a laptop over. Let Boss Pei try out our games.”

Wang Xiaobin nodded his head and left the office to search for a laptop outside.

Pei Qian noticed that there was a laptop on Du Ruijie’s office desk. That said that Du Ruijie never played his company’s games. Pei Qian could not help but feel a little jealous.

Look at them! This was what a mature company should look like. The boss did not have to care about the operations, and the company would suffer losses by itself.

Look at Tengda. I scrutinized every single detail of the games, and yet it created such troubles.

Very soon, Wang Xiaobin came in with a laptop.

Shang Yang Games produced two games. One was called Romantic Taoist and the other Bloody Battle Song. There were both browser games. However, the former was a management game while the latter was an RPG game about the war between nations.

Pei Qian opened Romantic Taoist first.

The first thing he saw after registering an account was a scene that could make noses bleed. A large picture of a beautiful lady was in the middle of the display. She was scantily clad and caused nosebleeds.

Du Ruijie and Wang Xiaobin appeared a little uneasy. They felt a little embarrassed as though an ugly girlfriend was about to meet her in-laws. They had previously heard that Boss Pei was not only the boss but was also the lead designer for Tengda Games.

For example, the recently popular Game Designer thoroughly analyzed and harshly satirized the domestic game industry. Its gameplay, graphics, and core message were all comparable with top game producers overseas.

Meanwhile, looking at Shang Yang Games, it was still at the stage of pushing the envelope of what was acceptable.

Their classiness was miles apart.

What would they do if Boss Pei became unhappy after seeing this type of game and decided against acquiring their company?

Pei Qian scanned the game quickly and confirmed in no time that the name of the game was greatly sensationalized. It was just an ordinary management browser game that included many beautiful women. After a set amount of time, they would unlock a new beautiful woman.

The game was terrible in all aspects. It was no wonder the game was about to cease its operations.

Pei Qian closed the game and quietly opened Bloody Battle Song.

The graphics of this game was much better than the previous one, and yet it was still bad.Read more chapter on NovelFull

It was a typical ‘slash me if you are my brother’ game. The 2D graphics made Pei Qian feel as though he was back to the Stone Age.

It was unbelievable that the game had earned significant profits during the first two months from its release to sustain Shang Yang Games’ three hundred thousand yuan operating costs each month. That could be considered a miracle.

After seeing those two games, Pei Qian was suddenly a little sentimental. He seemed to have understood why he could not suffer a loss. He lacked imagination! As a person who had the memory from 2019, his taste and style had been cultivated by different types of classic masterpieces in that period.

Even if he had deliberately wanted to produce trashy games, the only thing he could think of was the games with high paywalls on the market. However, all those games with paywalls that Pei Qian recalled were winners who survived the intense battles in the market and could profit!

That was the limit to his imagination. He couldn’t think of any game that was trashier than that. However, he knew about that now.

Games like Romantic Taoist and Bloody Battle Song…

During the first two minutes into the game, Pei Qian felt that his intelligence had been plastered and rubbed on the ground.

As expected, ‘you have to rely on the professionals to lose money’. This deal seemed like such a bargain!
