Chapter 1314 The Fifth Generation of Tenda Games

Pei Qian wore a kind smile. "Yu Fei? Come, sit down, have some tea."

He had long expected Yu Fei to come knocking.

After all, he had been making excuses for various reasons. Yu Fei wasn't stupid; he should realize something was amiss.

But Pei Qian couldn't help it. Wasn't it because Yu Fei was too important to the games department to let him go?

As it stood, Yu Fei was the only suitable person to head the games department. Pei Qian didn't trust anyone else.

So, Pei Qian had already prepared his explanation. He had to find a way to keep Yu Fei from leaving.

Yu Fei reluctantly sat down on the sofa and took a perfunctory sip of tea.

A few times before, he at least had hope that he could leave the games department in a week or so and return to writing in peace.

But now, Hu Xianbin had been transferred directly. How long would he, the lead designer of the games department, have to keep working?

There was no end in sight!

Yu Fei looked at President Pei, ready to lay his cards on the table. He couldn't go on like this.

"President Pei, I really can't keep filling in anymore."

"My readers are cursing me as a pigeon spirit every day. I said I'd start a new book three months ago, but there isn't even a shadow of it yet."

"Before, because I had just taken over the games department and wasn't familiar with many things, I was very busy with work every day. So, I told my reader group that I was currently working as a substitute planner in the games department, designing a new game and didn't have time to write a new book."

"As a result, my readers don't believe me at all. They even say that I'm either stupid or bad, and that I can't even make up a good excuse. All I think about is slacking off and fooling the readers..."

"President Pei, I'm so wronged!"

"I've already promised my readers this month that I must start a new book. I really can't delay it any longer!"

"Moreover, the design draft of *Ghost General 2* is already completed. You can just randomly promote someone from the games department to be the executive lead planner to continue promoting it. It's not difficult at all!"

Yu Fei was truly wronged.

Before, when he was working on *Eternal Reincarnation*, he said that he was helping in the Tenda Games department and also participated in the game's design. The readers in the group all praised him, saying that he was awesome, turning fanfiction into official history.

But when it came to *Ghost General 2*, the situation was a bit different.

Because the readers felt that it was reasonable for a novelist to participate in the creation of *Eternal Reincarnation*, which he had created himself. But what did developing a new game have to do with him?

Tenda Games department was full of talent. Was it his turn to help?

Oh, I see. This dog author must have become comfortable riding on the coattails of *Eternal Reincarnation*, and slacking off has become a habit. That's why he's lying to readers, saying that he has to continue helping and the games department won't let him go.

In other words, he's just too lazy to write and wants to slack off for a few more months.

How could this be allowed? Even a donkey in the production team wouldn't rest like this!

As a result, the atmosphere in the reader group became more and more strange. Everyone suspected that Yu Fei was just slacking off, even though he said he was helping.

Yu Fei was very helpless. The key was that he couldn't talk about the content of *Ghost General 2* in the reader group; the new game had to be kept secret.

The readers didn't believe him when he said he was a substitute lead planner in Tenda!

So, Yu Fei now opened up to President Pei, making it clear that since the design of *Ghost General 2* was already completed, President Pei could just find someone to replace him as the main designer of the games department. He wouldn't do it no matter what!

Pei Qian's expression immediately became serious. "Is that so?"

"In that case, I'll have Assistant Xin issue you a letter of appointment, or a certificate, with a stamp, officially appointing you as the head of the games department!"

"When the time comes, you can show this letter of appointment to your readers, and I believe they will have nothing to say."

Yu Fei nodded. "Well, if there's an official letter of appointment, then that's definitely..."

But he quickly reacted. "That's not right, President Pei, I'm not talking about the letter of appointment!"

Good heavens, he was almost tricked by President Pei, cooking the rice before it was even ready!

Yu Fei tried to get the topic back on track. "President Pei, my new book really has to start! I can't break my promise to my readers!"

Pei Qian thought for a moment. "Didn't you just say that the design draft of *Ghost General 2* has been completed? The rest of the work just needs someone to supervise the development."

"In that case, you can free up your hands to start a new book. You can do both at the same time."

"You can even mobilize the people in the games department, or rather, all the heads of Tenda, to give your new book rewards."

"Why not have Ma Yiqun put your new book on the homepage of Qidian Chinese Website for ten days or half a month? What do you think?"

Yu Fei was speechless for a moment. "This..."

"Although this proposal is very tempting, I... I feel like something's not right?"

Yu Fei was a little confused.

Logically speaking, if he was the head of the games department, running to Qidian Chinese Website to publish a book and occupying the recommendation resources on the homepage, wouldn't that be using his power for personal gain?

But his main identity was also an author on Qidian Chinese Website, so there was nothing wrong with giving him the recommendation resources.

Seeing that Yu Fei was obviously a little tempted, Pei Qian decided to strike while the iron was hot. "Also, you were originally just an author on Qidian Chinese Website, so didn't you have to look at Ma Yiqun's face for everything you did?"

"But if you have the identity of the head of the games department, then that's extraordinary. Not only are you on the same level as Ma Yiqun in terms of position, both of you are heads, but your department is even more core than his. Wouldn't he have to try to curry favor with you instead?"

"In the future, you can start your book whenever you want, and you can cut it off whenever you want. You'll never have to look at the editor's face again!"

"Keeping the identity of the head of the games department has many benefits for you!"

"Moreover, you've already been busy for more than three months. You've already adapted to and are familiar with the work of the games department. Now that you're doing it so smoothly, it would be a pity to leave."

"Usually, when you're at work, you only need to be busy for a few days when you start a new project, just design it. Usually, there are other designers supervising the progress. You can code during work hours, which is even more efficient."

"Every now and then, when you don't want to write, just ask the readers for leave, saying that President Pei has arranged a new task for me, and the new game is about to go online. I don't think your readers will have any objections."

Yu Fei's mouth was slightly open, and his mentality had obviously undergone some subtle changes.

It had to be said that there were many things in President Pei's words that moved him greatly.

Pei Qian continued, "Moreover, you are now considered the fifth generation of Tenda Games. The fifth generation, that's a good position!"

Yu Fei was a little confused. "Ah? Why?"

Pei Qian: "Uh... this, mainly because... big?"

"Ahem, it's not important. In short, the fifth generation is a position that carries on the past and opens up the future. I believe you will definitely be able to create more brilliant achievements!"

"Moreover, we haven't found a suitable person to replace you yet. You should continue working and writing at the same time. Let's try it first. What if there's no problem?"

"I'll have Assistant Xin issue you a letter of appointment later to clarify things with the readers."

Yu Fei nodded silently. "...Okay."

It had to be said that President Pei's words made a lot of sense.

Before Yu Fei came in, he had a do-or-die mentality, thinking that he had to use any means to get President Pei to let him go today.

But as he was leaving, he suddenly felt that it didn't seem so unacceptable to supervise game development while writing a book.

Then, let's continue working for a while and see. After all, the busiest time for *Ghost General 2* was when he was creating the design draft.

The design draft had already come out, and the next step was not so busy. He hadn't left before, so would it be a loss to leave now?

Moreover, what President Pei said also made sense. Having the identity of the head of the games department would make many things easier.

For example, asking for leave. If he didn't want to code, he could just push the blame on President Pei. How perfect!

Hardcore leave, guaranteed that no readers would complain.

Looking at Yu Fei's departing figure, Pei Qian couldn't help but smile.

Little rascal, you want to leave after coming to Tenda?

No way!

It was a good start to be able to successfully integrate Yu Fei into Tenda.

Perhaps the selection of Tenda's heads could be more unconventional in the future. What if he could find more talents like Yu Fei? Wouldn't that be a huge profit?

...

At the same time, the GOG project team.

Eric had already gone to Europe, and Zhao Xuming had been running all over the country recently to arrange offline viewing events, taking some of his subordinates with him. So, the project team seemed much quieter.

Zhang Yuan came over as usual to discuss the GOG version update plan with Zhang Nan, the current head of GOG.

As a result, as soon as he saw Zhang Nan, before he could even talk about the version update, Zhang Nan secretly pulled him aside.

"The Suffering Travel actually didn't include you this time?"

"How did you do it?!"

Zhang Nan's expression was full of shock.

After the list of the new Suffering Travel came out, it had already caused an uproar in the group of heads.

Some were struck by lightning, some were secretly rejoicing, and some, like the members of the first Suffering Travel, wondered why certain people hadn't been selected.

And Zhang Yuan was obviously the most eye-catching one.

He had made such a big commotion, but he still hadn't been selected for the Suffering Travel? What was going on?

Could it be that he had reached some kind of private transaction with President Pei?

That couldn't be. President Pei was an objective and fair person.

It could only be said that Zhang Yuan must have a secret!

And when Zhang Nan had just taken over as head, Zhang Yuan had talked to her about his worries, saying that he felt that he would definitely be on the next Suffering Travel and was trying to avoid this misfortune.

As a result, he had actually succeeded!

Zhang Nan instantly became very curious, because it also concerned her own safety.

She discovered that in this Suffering Travel, in addition to Li Yaling as a staff member, there were also two female heads!

As the head of the GOG project team, Zhang Nan instantly felt a lot of pressure.

After all, she had only just taken over as head not long ago. She wasn't on the list of Suffering Travel yet, but according to the current trend, with the important position of the GOG project team within Tenda, it was likely that her name would be on the third or fourth list.

Now, Zhang Yuan was a life-saving straw for her.

Zhang Yuan smiled meaningfully. "Of course, I have a trick to successfully save myself!"
