Chapter 1428: Preparing To Write My Graduation Thesis
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After watching Boss Pei leave, Ye Zhizhou looked at the safety and civilized driving simulators on the shelves and fell into deep thought.
Boss Pei’s attitude towards the game ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ could be said to have changed significantly.
Boss Pei’s attitude was more Buddha-like before the game was released.
He could buy the authorization, but he would definitely not pay a high price. He had also made it very clear to the car business in advance that this game was different from other games. After collision, it would indeed cause serious car damage. If they accepted the price and conditions, they would pay for the authorization. If they did not accept it, they would leave.
Now that the game was released, Boss Pei’s attitude had changed.
Not only did he not give them the authorization fee, but he also wanted the car manufacturers to pay. He even wanted the car manufacturers to provide samples for the collision test. The conditions were much stricter than before.
He knew that Boss Pei’s change in attitude was definitely not emotional. What deeper considerations were there?
Ye Zhizhou felt a little regretful. It was a pity that Wang Xiaobin was still suffering and could not give him advice.
However, it did not matter. As a qualified person-in-charge of Tengda, he had to have the ability to answer Boss Pei’s puzzles and complete the task independently.
“Boss Pei’s change in attitude means one thing. The objective environment for working with car companies has changed before and after the game was released. How exactly did it change?”
“…Yes, before the game was released, there was already a screening effect because of the uncertainty about whether the game would become popular. Therefore, there was no need to screen it again? After the game was released, many car companies followed the trend because the game had already become popular. Thus, there might be people who took advantage of the situation. That was why they had to strictly control and be responsible to players?”
“That should be the reason!”
Ye Zhizhou suddenly understood this.
The objective environment for the game to be released had indeed changed!
Before the game was released, no one knew if the game ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ would succeed. Due to the characteristics of the game, car companies would feel that the serious car damage in the game would affect their corporate image. Thus, they were unwilling to cooperate. This in itself had already played a screening role.
Any manufacturer who signed a contract with Shang Yang Games and approved of the game’s car damage would most definitely need to make use of Tengda’s popularity and be more confident in their own brand.
They knew that ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ would work with IIAS and would put the real collision data in the game. However, choosing to cooperate was enough to explain the problem.
However, the situation was different after the game became popular.
Many car companies only relaxed when they saw that they could ride on the popularity.
The problem was that some car companies might want to take advantage of the situation and bargain. Shang Yang Games would have to spend a lot of time negotiating with these car companies one by one. What’s more, it would be very difficult to achieve a draw.
Some car companies might rely on their good brand advantages to ask for some superior conditions, asking Shang Yang Games to make concessions in some details. Some car companies might be more simple and follow Tengda’s rules completely.
The final outcome would probably be that the wrangling car business would obtain some advantage. The car companies that were not wrangling would instead be at a disadvantage.
Wasn’t this bullying honest people?
Boss Pei’s attitude was very simple. All car companies were treated equally. He directly used a seemingly strict screening condition to complete the screening of all car companies!
Behind this was obviously Boss Pei’s strong confidence in the game ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’.
Boss Pei thought that such mandatory screening conditions would save time and effort. It would maximize the fairness and justice of the performance of different cars in the game. What’s more, there was no need to rush the authorization for car brands. In any case, as more and more gamers appeared and the influence of the game became greater, car companies that did not accept these conditions would accept it sooner or later.
The earlier a car company accepted this condition, the more sincere they would be in working with Tengda. They would show their confidence in their own products. Naturally, they would be able to obtain more opportunities to expose themselves in the game.
At that thought, Ye Zhizhou finally understood.
It was not Shang Yang Games’ place to worry about whether the car companies would authorize it or not.
You don’t have to authorize it even if you want to. In any case, other companies would come to ask for it.
The game was already a success. What was there to worry about?
Now, the first goal of ‘Safe and Civilized Driving’ was not to obtain the authorization of many car companies at all. Instead, it was to be responsible to players and the social impact of this game. It was to ensure that the information that players obtained about cars in the game was real, effective, and reliable.
He would only have the right to think about other things if he could make the game good and realistic.
“Boss Pei is indeed amazing. He saw through the essence of the problem at a glance!”
Ye Zhizhou felt emotional from the bottom of his heart. He immediately got up and returned to Shang Yang Games to work on the follow-up.
…
After lunch, Pei Qian returned to his office, feeling sorrowful.
What happened in the morning had dealt him a blow.
Bad news would come one after another every time it was almost settlement. What should he do?!
The key was that after Safe and Civilized Driving, the crisis was not over yet. There were also extremely lethal games like Ghost General 2 and Bullet Hole 2 that had not been released!
Even though Pei Qian felt that these two games would not become popular, he was no longer confident in his judgment.

Just as he was struggling internally, he heard a knock on his office door.
He looked up and saw his face before he heard his voice.
It was Ma Yang.
“Brother Qian! I have something very important to tell you!”
Pei Qian’s heart nearly stopped when he saw Ma Yang’s serious expression.
Sh * t, could something have happened at Bunny Tail Live-Stream again?
Don’t scare me. I just had a scare in the morning. My small heart cannot take such stimulation!

“What’s the matter?” Pei Qian asked.
Ma Yang paused for a moment and said, “I’m going to start writing my graduation thesis!”
Pei Qian was stunned. “Huh?”
He did not react immediately. After resting for a while, he heaved a sigh of relief.
That scared me to death. It’s just a graduation thesis, right? It’s not a big deal. I thought Bunny Tail Live-Stream was making money again!
“Look at how flustered you are. It’s just a graduation thesis. We’re in the humanities course. It’s not as troublesome as postgraduate design.”
The reason why Pei Qian said this was because he had worked on a graduation thesis in his memory. It was not that difficult.
Undergraduate students did not have such high requirements for their graduation thesis. After all, Handong University’s employment, overseas, and postgraduate students accounted for about one-third of the students. The school could not wait for the students to graduate and increase their employment rate. They would not deliberately make things difficult for them.
As long as the thesis was not particularly ridiculous, he could basically pass.
In other words, at the master’s and doctoral stages, the thesis requirements would suddenly become very strict.
What’s more, Pei Qian had donated so much money to his alma mater and provided a lot of jobs. He had not even failed his exams, much less his thesis.
After all, he still had to memorize many closed-book examinations. He could also check the materials for the thesis. He could get his supervisor to check it. He could fix it a few more times and check it out. It was almost impossible to be stuck because of this.
Of course, even though it was simple, it would take some time. Pei Qian felt that it would not be too late to do it after this cycle ended.
Ma Yang could not help but raise his thumb. “As expected of Brother Qian. You’re so calm unlike me. I panicked when I heard that I had to write a graduation thesis.”
“The thesis was submitted before April 10th. It was written in May. Now, many students have contacted their mentors. Brother Qian, let’s hurry up. It’s a little late.”
“We can hire any subject teacher as a mentor for our undergraduate thesis. Brother Qian, which one should we choose?”
Pei Qian sniggered. Which one should he choose? Old Ma, you think too highly of me.
I have only attended a few classes; I don’t even know these people!
If the first question on the test paper was ‘choosing the photos of the teachers’, I would definitely get zero points!
You’re still asking me to choose a mentor? You must be mistaken.
Pei Qian cleared his throat. “That’s easy. We don’t have to choose. I’ll look for the instructor one day and ask him to assign us a reliable mentor. He should be more concerned about our graduation than we are.”
Ma Yang: “Eh… that makes sense! Brother Qian, you’re so smart!”
“I’m not worried about hanging out with you then! You can call me along when we get back.”
Pei Qian felt a little guilty seeing how much Ma Yang trusted him.
Old Ma, are you sure you can trust me?
When it came to learning, Pei Qian felt that he was basically the same as Ma Yang. Sometimes, he was even less reliable than Ma Yang.
However, since he had already bragged, it was not easy for him to suck it back.
Forget it, the thesis should not be that difficult. He would discuss it with the instructor and it would be fine as long as he could barely pass.
In fact, Pei Qian did not need such a graduation certificate. Tengda Corporation was already so big, and he did not need to find a job. What was the point of obtaining a graduation certificate?
However, the problem was that it would be strange if news of Boss Pei not graduating from university spread.
Pei Qian was not afraid of being mocked. No one would probably mock him. After all, Boss Pei did not need a graduation certificate to prove himself.
He was mainly afraid that this matter would turn into a magazine joke. Then, he would become like the big shots of the giants and the founders of POUIO. He would become a “successful entrepreneur who did not graduate from university”. Some people with ulterior motives would use it to promote “reading is useless”. That scene would be a little awkward just thinking about it.
What’s more, he had already overcome many difficulties in his four years in university. How could he not pass the graduation thesis?
He could not let all his efforts go to waste.
In any case, after this last stage, he could say goodbye to his university life.
At the thought that he had not attended any proper classes in his four years of university and had only racked his brains to incur losses, he immediately felt lonely.
