Chapter 890: Best Employee Selection

Chapter 890: Best Employee Selection

February 13th, Monday…

Jingzhou high-speed rail station.

Bao Xu was almost moved to tears when he stepped onto Jingzhou’s land again.

I, Bao Xu, am finally back!

The long paid holiday was finally over!

Bao Xu felt like a lifetime had passed when he saw the familiar city scenery outside.

The group from FV Club took a plane from United States to Shanghai. Then, the members of FV Club stayed in Shanghai. Ye Zhizhou, Min Jingchao, Bao Xu, and Coach Old Zhou took the high-speed rail back to Beijing.

They still took business class on the plane back so they had a good rest. After getting off the plane, they rested for a while and then took the high-speed rail back to Beijing. They did not feel tired at all.

Ye Zhizhou and Min Jingchao rubbed their palms together, ready to go all out.

They had been paying attention to Finger Games’ latest move when they were in the United States. They knew that IOI’s local server was going to start a price war with GOG.

The work that both of them were in charge of was related to GOG. After this period of leave, their conditions had been adjusted to their best state. They would be able to invest 120% of their passion into their work once Boss Pei gave the order.

On the other hand, Bao Xu only had one thought in his mind. That was to return to his desk, take a cup of coffee, play games to his heart’s content, and never go out again!

No amount of good scenery could compare to the comfort of being at home to a homebody. Bao Xu had not experienced such comfort in a long time.

The seven commercial cars responsible for fetching them stopped at the underground garage of Shenhua View. Bao Xu followed Ye Zhizhou, Min Jingchao, and the others into the elevator. He suddenly realized that something was amiss.

Why was Ye Zhizhou here as well?

Ye Zhizhou was a member of Shang Yang Games which was not in Shenhua View.

Puzzled, Bao Xu asked Ye Zhizhou, “Are you here because… you have work to report?”

Ye Zhizhou shook his head. “No.”

Bao Xu looked confused. Why were you here then?

Coming to visit?

It did not make sense.

Ye Zhizhou smiled. “Brother Bao, today is the selection for outstanding employees. I’m a person-in-charge, of course, I have to come!”

A bolt flashed past. Bao Xu froze, his expression becoming blank.

Outstanding Employee Selection!

That’s right, it was already February!

Tengda’s outstanding employee selection was held twice a year, in February and August respectively. The exact date was not fixed, and it was decided based on Boss Pei’s work arrangements. However, it would definitely be completed by that month.

It was now February, indeed time for the Outstanding Employee Selection!

Bao Xu had been traveling overseas since before Chinese New Year and was about to faint from all the traveling. He had long forgotten about the selection of outstanding employees.

What’s more, the selection of outstanding employees only required the heads of the various departments to be present. That was why they only informed people like Ye Zhizhou and Min Jingchao.

Bao Xu might be experienced, but he was just an ordinary employee. That was why he had not been notified.

His face turned pale and his vision turned black. He held onto the handrails in the elevator.

An ominous feeling filled his heart. Oh no!

Bao Xu had no reason to be brought up for the Best Employee Selection if he were to judge based on his work situation for the past six months.

‘Mission and Choice’ was still under development. The competition between GOG and IOI had also come to an end. The games department did not have any particularly outstanding results. On the other hand, Bao Xu had tried his best to reduce his presence. He had become almost invisible in the games department. The chances of him being on the list were close to zero.

However, Bao Xu knew his limits and had already prepared for the worst.

That was what he had thought the last time the Best Employee Selection was held. However, he had not expected that Huang Sibo would get second place for the Best Employee Selection and asked him to accompany him!

Bao Xu had brought Huang Sibo to Africa for a tour unwillingly. He had greeted everyone in the Great Rift Valley of East Africa and the Sahara Desert. He had wanted to make an example out of Huang Sibo so that those who obtained second place in the outstanding employee category would back off and stop bringing him along.

However, Bao Xu was not sure if his plan would work.

After all, his experience in traveling had told him that it was useless not to believe in the supernatural. It would definitely be linked to him as long as there was a tourist project.

Thus, Bao Xu, who had gradually accepted his fate and reality, broke down from the bottom of his heart.

…

At the same time, the early stages of the Best Employee Selection had been prepared.

The heads of the various departments gathered together. The employees of the departments were also ready to vote on TPDb’s application.

Everyone welcomed Min Jingchao, Ye Zhizhou, Bao Xu, and the others.

“You’re back from your holiday? You’ve worked hard!”

“I feel like you’ve become tanner and thinner. The schedule for this week is quite tight, right?”

“Come, sit down and rest. The voting is about to begin.”

Bao Xu quietly found a corner to hide in and sighed softly. Then, he opened his suitcase and began sorting it out.

He had returned to the office before he could even return to his accommodation after he had returned from the United States. Thus, he had brought his luggage with him.

In the past, Bao Xu had felt that there was no reason for him to be selected. That was why he was caught off guard when the results came out.

This time, he thought about it. If he were to think in the opposite direction and I took the initiative to pack my luggage, would he be spared?

The voting officially began since all the department heads were here!

A column image appeared on the big screen. Everyone took out their cell phones and opened Tengda Life App’s TPDb section. They found the best employee selection channel through the employee entrance and voted their precious votes.

Bao Xu did not want to watch anymore this time. He was prepared to be an ostrich with its head buried in the sand. He lowered his head and tossed his luggage around, trying to find some psychological comfort for himself.

Finally, the column diagram jumped a few times imperceptibly. A few numbers changed slightly and finally settled down.

Best Employee: Chang You.

Second best employee: Liang Qingfan.

Third best employee: Zhang Yuan.

Everyone applauded enthusiastically when they saw this list!

The Best Employee Selection this time seemed to be slightly worse than the previous ones.

The results of these few people were not as outstanding as the previous best employees.

It was mainly because of the period. The huge project ‘Mission and Choice’ had not been completed yet. The game and the movie had not been released. Therefore, there were no extremely explosive projects. Many departments had similar votes.

The E-Sports Department that Zhang Yuan was in charge of was actually very eye-catching in the past six months. The GPL league was very successful. A large amount of capital entered the establishment of the club and successfully pulled in a large amount of investment and sponsorship.

What’s more, FV Club had won the IOI global finals and made Tengda Corporation extremely famous. The coach team played a very important role, which was also related to the eSports Division.

However, the problem was that in the eyes of others, most of the credit should go to Boss Pei and not Zhang Yuan.

The various large capital clubs and sponsored competitions were mainly because of Boss Pei’s personal charm. FV Club also won the championship because of Boss Pei’s comprehensive plan and foresight.

Zhang Yuan only took up a small portion of the credit. Thus, he ended up in third place.

Liang Qingfan’s Sloth Apartments was doing well. He had established the Tengda standards for furniture and had built up a good reputation. At the same time, he had also made some profits by customizing furniture, selling design plans, and working with real estate developers to build model houses.

However, Sloth Apartments did not make enough money, so they could only get second place.

On the other hand, Otto Technologies’ new operating system had achieved great success and gained a good reputation even though they had yet to release a new cell phone in the past six months. Artificial intelligence AEEIS and the Fully-Automated Smart Bickering Machine had also received good reviews. Their results were the most outstanding amongst the rest.

Of course, there was not much difference in the votes of these three people. They could be said to be on par with each other, searching for the best suited candidate.

In fact, some other departments had achieved results as well. However, due to some special reasons, it was not within the scope of this selection. For example, the independent game incubation base that Qiu Hong was in charge of was still in a state of confidentiality. There were also some department heads who had already won the best employee award. They could not win anymore and could only get second place.

The three people who appeared on the big screen had different expressions.

Zhang Yuan was stunned for a moment. Then, he patted his chest and rejoiced.

That was close! He had almost gone on a holiday!

Zhang Yuan was not very interested in traveling. He was actually quite a homebody though still a far cry from Bao Xu’s level. Tengda had so many holidays and he was not short of money. If he wanted to travel, he could do so at any time. Naturally, he was not interested.

Liang Qingfan, on the other hand, looked rather expectant.

He had only joined Tengda for less than a year. He had not been given a chance to travel on public funds previously, so he was rather looking forward to it.

Chang You, on the other hand, looked confused. His expression was the same as when Zhang Yuan won the Best Employee Award.

He did not want to change departments at all!

Being chosen as the Best employee would mean that he would have a dream fund, but at the same time, he would have to leave the original department and start a new department on his own.

Zhang Yuan was originally the person-in-charge of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe. He had also set up ROF Computer-Installation while he was at it. At first, he was doing very well and was very satisfied with the situation at that time. In the end, he was forced out of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe by Boss Pei because he obtained the best employee. He had no choice but to set up DGE E-Sports Club.

Chang You was in a similar situation. His hobby was to make cell phones. Now that the design plan for the new cell phone model was out, and all the employees of Otto Technologies were seriously preparing for it, Chang You, the person-in-charge, would be leaving at this critical juncture?

That was terrible!

Chang You was extremely unwilling. He just wanted to stay at Otto Technologies.

Pei Qian held the trophy in front of Chang You. “Boss Chang, congratulations! There’s no need to say anything for the thank you speech. You should think about how to use the Dream Fund!”

Chang You took the trophy from Boss Pei with a bitter expression, his face filled with “happiness”.

Thank you speech? Thank my a*s!
