Chapter 842: The Award Comes From The Sky Even Though He Was Physically In Los Angeles

4 PM, at Tengda’s annual meeting.

The employees who were full and tired of shopping came to the GPL competition venue on the top floor and took their seats according to their departments and seats.

The eight teams organized by the various departments within the company had played seven competitions in a total of four hours from 12 PM to now. The average time for the competitions ranged from 20 minutes to 35 minutes. It was just enough to determine the champion.

On one hand, GOG’s tempo was faster. Its average length was shorter than games like Gods Rising and IOI, so it could be played faster. On the other hand, it was also because the difference in strength between the teams in the various departments was too big. It was very easy to play a crushing game. Competitions that ended in less than twenty minutes were everywhere.

What’s more, there was no need to discuss tactics since there was no need to take breaks during the live competition. It also saved a lot of time.

Tengda Games’ representative team, which they had high hopes for, was eliminated. They did not even make it to the finals. That made everyone’s jaws drop.

Obviously, strong players Bao Xu and Min Jingchao were far away in Los Angeles. They could not participate in the competition, which greatly reduced the strength of Tengda Games’ team.

The two teams that made it to the finals were the team led by Lu Mingliang, the team representing Upwind Logistics, and the team represented by He Desheng, Dream Realization Ventures.

Boss Ma had given Dream Realization Ventures a solid foundation. Most of the employees, including He Desheng, had been high score passers-by since the era of Gods Rising. Many of GOG’s design ideas had been suggested by them. They often played games with Boss Ma and their tacit understanding was impeccable.

The main reason why Upwind Logistics was so strong was because they had so many people.

Upwind Logistics had so many stores and delivery men. It was easy to pick out five people who were better at GOG.

However, in the end, the representative team of Upwind Logistics lost to Dream Realization Ventures because of their lack of cooperation and tactics.

The express delivery men expressed their pity one after another. They expressed that they would train their skills well and try to torture them next year.

All the teams participating in the competition this time had small gifts and awards, including various peripheral figurines of the GPL league, the autographs of each team’s players, their team uniforms, and so on.

Of course, these small gifts would also be given to other employees who liked to watch GPL.

On the other hand, the champion team had obtained a custom-made internal competition trophy. It was still valuable even though it could not be compared to the GPL league trophy. It would be an eternal honor in Dream Realization Ventures’ office.

Some of the people were watching the internal competitions, some went shopping, some went to catch dolls and play with rings.

They bought milk tea or drinks and sat in the stadium to rest, waiting for the lucky draw now that everyone was tired from playing.

Other companies’ lucky draw had to be done while eating.

The reason was very simple. There were few prizes and the winning rate was low. The employees might not get prizes even if they waited for a long time so they had nothing to do other than eat.

However, Tengda’s lottery was different. There were many prizes and high chances of winning. Almost everyone would get one.

What’s more, the rules of the lucky draw were the same as last year’s annual meeting. It was not a completely random probability but a false probability. Everyone could only win two prizes at most. What’s more, those who did not win the prizes would have a higher chance of winning later on.

Everyone was nervous, excited and full of anticipation with so many prizes drawn out in just an hour. They would not feel bored at all.

Almost everyone had arrived at the venue. There wasn’t even a host on stage speaking rubbish. The program on the big screen started rolling as they started their lucky draw!

A simple promotional video would be played to introduce the prize before the lucky draw. Then, it would be selected from the list of people.

That was because the number of people participating this year was almost double that of last year. Thus, the lucky draw program had been slightly modified. Previously, they had drawn for one person at a time, and each time they showed a person’s photo, they had now changed it to five at a time.

The photos of the five people would be displayed on the big screen. They would shrink and fly to the top left of the screen. Then, they would continue to draw other people.

All the photos were arranged on the big screen, and the prizes were quickly selected.

Everyone was staring at the big screen, afraid that they would miss the winning message. However, this worry was obviously unnecessary. Not only would other people in the same department remind them, but their cell phones would also automatically receive the winning notification.

That was because the system would automatically generate orders for Upwind Logistics to be sent to the employees’ address and send a message to remind them the moment the lucky draw was completed.

Cheers could be heard in the huge stadium that could accommodate nearly two thousand people.

As they progressed, the value of the prizes increased. High-value laptops, cell phones, digital cameras, television, and so on were being distributed as though they were free. The atmosphere at the venue became more and more lively!

Finally, after the 18,888 yuan cash gift, the final prize appeared on the screen.

Six slots for a five-day tour in any city in the world for two!

This was a retention program that was available at the annual meeting last year. It was a two-person five-day holiday in any city. You could choose where you wanted to go. What’s more, the company would cover all the first-class tickets and accommodation fees for five-star hotels. There would also be additional expenses reimbursement.

It was well-deserved to be known as the biggest prize of the annual meeting.

Many people might think that it was not as practical as high-end televisions and high-end games that cost more than ten thousand yuan. Televisions and computers could be used for many years after all, while tourism could only last five days.

On the other hand, they would be able to buy a high-end computer that cost more than ten thousand yuan if they were to save up a little more. However, who would be willing to pay for a first-class cabin and stay in a five-star hotel when traveling?!

What’s more, the cost of a first-class cabin and a five-star hotel was far more than ten thousand yuan for a high-end laptop.

Thus, this was the most attention-grabbing award.

What’s more, there were only three slots last year due to the increase in the number of people. This year, there were six slots. The probability of winning increased.

Many people were looking at the big screen excitedly, hoping to be one of the six lucky ones.

Soon, the headsets on the big screen started rolling and six of them appeared.

The fourth avatar on the left was Bao Xu!

The other five avatars were all unfamiliar faces. They should be some basic- level staff.

There were nearly two thousand people in the venue after all. Pei Qian only knew those who were in charge, which was a few dozen people at most. The chances of winning the lottery were very low.

However, Bao Xu…

What was going on with Bao Xu?

Do you really have to travel every time?

Everyone burst into laughter when they saw Bao Xu’s profile picture on the big screen.

“Hahaha, Brother Bao again!”

“Where’s Brother Bao? I want to see his expression!”

“He’s in Los Angeles. It should be midnight over there. Brother Bao will only know about this nightmare in a few hours.”

“It’s perfect, it’s perfect. I’m even happier to see Brother Bao win!”

Pei Qian could not help but feel emotional. Life was all about fate.

People in Los Angeles did not escape the fate of being selected.

What’s more, Bao Xu was the fourth person to win. In other words, if three people were selected for this year’s grand prize, he would not be on the winning list.

Look at how things had turned out…

There were many employees of Tengda Corporation in the Los Angeles team, but since it was a lucky draw for the annual meeting, it would not be appropriate to not include them. Thus, even though these people were not present, they were still on the lucky draw list.

Bao Xu won the prize just like that, he still could not avoid his fate.

In two or three days, Bao Xu and the others would be back after the IOI global finals in Los Angeles were over. They would be able to make it in time for the new year.

However… After the new year, Bao Xu had to pack his luggage and consider his next destination.

Pei Qian could not help but feel sorry for Bao Xu.

Finally, the entire annual meeting was over.

All the employees returned with a full load and were having a good time.

Pei Qian felt much better after giving away so many gifts. The burden on his shoulders was much lighter.

Fortunately, this settlement cycle was just in time for the new year. He could spend millions of yuan in one shot using the annual meeting method. This allowed Pei Qian to think of a few ways to spend less money and save a lot of brain cells.

All in all, it was the holidays!

During the Chinese New Year period, the advertisements that had been arranged in advance would be sent to Jingzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities. Based on the current rate of spending money, he should be able to incur a huge loss when he officially started work after the Chinese New Year.

It was impossible to incur huge losses, but it shouldn’t be a problem to incur losses around eight to nine hundred thousand yuan, right?

Everyone left one after another. Pei Qian was in no hurry to leave. He stayed in his seat and took out his cell phone to browse.

However, he nearly cursed out loud when he saw a piece of news about the Destitution Plan.

The promotional videos of Black Ink and Clouds and the Destitution Plan had somehow become popular on Aili Island!

Not only that, but Black Ink and Clouds had already released a ten-minute demo on the official platform. It had also started its pre-sales. In just one afternoon, sales had reached 50,000 copies!

This was already an incredible result for an unknown independent game!

In the next week or even a month, as its popularity increased and spread, the pre-sales sales of this game would obviously continue to increase.

Pei Qian’s expression slowly turned blank.

“What just happened?”

“The game hasn’t even been completed and you’re already selling it?”

“Is there still law?”

“Is there still order?”

“Isn’t Qiu Hong causing trouble for me? Does he have any professional integrity at all!”

“Is there anyone else who wants to interfere?!”
