Chapter 143 Slashing Prices

Du Ruijie was opposite Pei Qian. When he saw Pei Qian’s expression which screamed ‘my eyes are burning’ as he played the games, his heart dropped to the ground. He had a bad feeling internally. Du Ruijie had never played the games under his company as he knew how terrible they were. He seemed to have been too hard on Boss Pei by making him play this type of trashy game

If Boss Pei did not like those two games, he would most probably use that as a reason to slash the price. Du Ruijie was mentally prepared.

Pei Qian closed the laptop, handed it over to Wang Xiaobin, and said, “Not bad.”

Not bad?

Du Ruijie suddenly felt immense respect towards Pei Qian. He thought that Boss Pei was trying to not embarrass him. How could he comment that such trashy games were ‘not bad’? He was being really kind!

In reality, Pei Qian truly felt that those two games were not bad. Pei Qian knew that he could not achieve the level of trashiness that the games had reached. Above it all, no matter what kind of games they were, they could be considered good games as long as they could not profit!

Wang Xiaobin asked instinctively, “Boss Pei, do you have any questions regarding the two games? I can answer your questions if you have any.”

Du Ruijie was so furious that he wanted to kick Wang Xiaobin.

Did you know what you were saying? Couldn’t we just get over this issue quickly? Were you trying to force Boss Pei to criticize the game?

Pei Qian laughed and replied, “I can understand the designs of the game clearly. I have no questions.”

Actually, Pei Qian wanted to ask them how they produced such a trashy game. However, upon further thinking, he thought that he shouldn’t be so honest about that.

Wang Xiaobin took the laptop over, nodded his head, and said, “That’s true, boss Pei. You are a professional. You will be able to understand the game with one look. I’m being such a busybody.”

Du Ruijie heaved a sigh of relief. He wanted to get this matter over and done with, close the acquisition deal quickly, and leave with the money.

At that time, this mess that he hadincluding all these old and used furniture, computers, and these useless employeeswould all be thrown at Tengda. Boss Pei would then be the person having a headache because of these things.

Pei Qian turned his head slightly, signifying that Xin Hailu could start slashing the price.

Although Pei Qian did not mind spending three or four hundred thousand yuan more, he suddenly felt that he was at the lower end of the deal if he had spent that extra money. Although these were the assets of the system, he still felt a little uncomfortable if he gave Boss Du the money.

He might as well increase the welfare of his employees with that money.

Therefore, he slashed the prices as he should have done until it reached the Boss Du’s bottom-line price in his heart.

Assistant Xin flipped through her notebook. “Boss Du, from what I know, you have delayed the employees a month of wages; one of the two games had ceased operating while the other’s revenue has been experiencing a nosedive. Currently, those two games are no longer considered high-quality assets and do not hold any IP value on its own.

“These furniture and office computers were purchased two to three years ago. They were not expensive initially. Considering how used they are, I’m afraid the most suitable place for it to be is the rubbish chute. As you know, given Tengda’s current working environment, these things are of no use…”

Assistant Xin spoke very fast. Du Ruijie’s face gradually turned pale.

Oh, no. All the saliva spent earlier went to waste.

He had originally thought that Boss Pei was very young and was most probably very inexperienced. He thought that he could get more money by bluffing him. However, he realized that he was bluffing the wrong person.

Boss Pei was not interested in the details of the acquisition. This assistant at the back was solely in charge of that. This assistant looked very experienced. She was much more superior to Du Ruijie from all aspects.

Throwing all other things aside, her presence itself was already much more superior to Du Ruijie. Du Ruijie was ultimately just the boss of a private enterprise. He was incomparable with Assistant Xin who had been working in big corporations. Very soon, he became speechless from what she said.

Assistant Xin slammed the notebook together. “After thorough consideration, the price that we propose is five hundred and fifty thousand yuan.”

Du Ruijie gulped down his saliva. This price was barely acceptable for him. However, he was still a little unhappy.

Pei Qian smiled and said, “That’s okay, Boss Du. I’ll give you another fifty thousand yuan. Given our friendship, I’ll make it six hundred thousand in total.”

Du Ruijie considered for a while. He wanted the price to be higher. However, after thinking about it, he decided against more bargaining

This Assistant Xin had been way too precise with her calculations. There were no other reasons for him to continue bargaining. If he said something wrong that made Boss Pei unhappy, he could simply leave immediately. Wouldn’t he lose everything then?

Once Du Ruijie thought of that, he showed a bright smile on his face. “Okay, Boss Pei. Six hundred thousand it is, then! I’m conceding because I hope that my brothers will have a better future…”

Pei Qian could not help but be speechless. This guy seemed to be so used to saying nice words and bragging. Nothing he said was believable.

“Then, we shall proceed with the procedures.” Pei Qian looked at Assistant Xin.

Although they had agreed to the terms, there were still many more things to be done after that. They had to carefully verify the details of the company and sign an acquisition agreement. It was unlike purchasing things in the supermarket; one could not just take their items and leave after swiping one’s card. They had to do things step-by-step.

However, Pei Qian did not need to worry about that.

“Boss Pei is so benevolent! You will indeed achieve big things!”

Du Ruijie was also very happy. Although this price was lower than what he had expected, the last fifty thousand yuan that Boss Pei added made him pretty happy.

The main thing was that he could finally shake the burden off. This was something that made him happy.

“Tell those employees outside to leave work and have a break. Notify them to come back to work after the procedures are done.

“Umm… Let’s set it on next Monday. May 10th.”

Pei Qian looked at the dates. Today was Wednesday. Four days should be enough to complete most procedures.

After all, this was not a multi-million acquisition case. Shang Yang Games was only a small company. There were only so many things to settle. Assistant Xin was very capable and could definitely complete the tasks on time.

This was a good time to give the employees a break so they could get accustomed to Tengda’s working tempo beforehand. In the future, Shang Yang Games would be a subsidiary of Tengda. They had to follow the various protocols and welfare of their holding company.

Wang Xiaobin was momentarily stunned. He nodded his head and replied, “Okay, Boss Pei! I will inform the others now!”

Pei Qian did not go out but instead continued listening to Assistant Xin and Boss Du’s conversation about the various procedures in the office.

After a while, whispered conversations sounded from outside as though a pool of dead water had suddenly come to life.

The moment Wang Xiaobin announced that the employees would be on a break until next Monday and that the company was about to change its owner, a commotion erupted.

Originally, Shang Yang Games was at a decline and many people were already searching for new jobs. Some employees who had brilliant resumes, such as Old Liu, had already successfully found new jobs.

However, Du Ruijie suddenly announced that another company was willing to take over the company yesterday. He ordered everyone to use an entire evening to tidy up the place, arrange their desks, and welcome their possibly new boss with their highest spirits.

That news shocked many people. After all, everyone knew how bad Shang Yang Games was. Who in the right mind would be willing to take over this mess?

However, after some inquisition, they were all shocked when they heard that Tengda Games could be their new owner.

This good news… Was simply like a pie in the sky!

After all, Tengda Games had a very good reputation in the industry. Many people wanted to join the company but could not find a way to do so.

If their company was acquired by Tengda, it would probably be treated as a ‘stepson’ and not receive similar benefits as their ‘biological son’. However, they were still under Tengda. Their future would be much more promising than they were now!

They had originally thought that the acquisition would take at least a few weeks and had not expected to get a break. Anyways, they were merely wasting their time during work.

However, they did not expect the process to be so efficient. They had already achieved a preliminary agreement in such a short time? They were on break until next Monday?

The employees of Shang Yang Games only had one thought. The ups and downs in their life are way too exhilarating…

They were troubled about losing their job a few days ago. All of a sudden, they experienced a ‘makeover’ and became Tengda’s employees. They had four days of leave, too!

They had almost thought that they were dreaming!
