(The platform name has been changed to Morning Dew Games Platform. I really didn't expect that the imagery of "painting rouge and carving ice" could be so distorted...)

The more Pei Qian thought about it, the more he felt that Tang Yishu was perfect for the role.

He couldn't wait to start the game platform right now and lose money!

However, starting a game platform wasn't so simple. He'd have to apply for the corresponding qualifications with the authorities, have some start-up capital, rent servers, and create the official platform's operating system...

In short, there was still some preparation work to be done.

But for the current Tenda, these were all easily solved problems.

Professional matters could be handled by professionals. Tenda had no shortage of talent in this area. He could just randomly transfer some people from various departments to be Tang Yishu's tools, ensuring that the game platform could run normally.

The only difficulty was how to hide this matter as much as possible, so that no one would know the relationship between Morning Dew Games Platform and Tenda.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian sent Tang Yishu a message, asking her to come to his office.

Not long after, Tang Yishu gently knocked on the door from outside: "Senior, you wanted to see me?"

Seeing Tang Yishu, Pei Qian couldn't help but smile.

"Come in, have a seat."

Little Tang, this great weapon, hadn't been used for a long time. The main reason was that Pei Qian wanted to keep her at Tenda Games, to maximize her effectiveness.

Because the game projects in Tenda Games department often had the largest investment and the greatest risk of making money. Having Tang Yishu in charge could simultaneously influence both "Mission and Choice" and GOG, two crucial projects.

Therefore, for more than half a year, Pei Qian had avoided sending her out as much as possible, hoping to delay "Mission and Choice" and GOG.

Now it seemed that the results weren't very significant.

Of course, it was also possible that it had already worked, but Pei Qian hadn't noticed it.

Although "Mission and Choice" was a hit, and GOG had been developing smoothly all along, on the surface it seemed that Tang Yishu hadn't played much of a role, but maybe... without Tang Yishu, these two projects would have been even more ridiculously successful?

He had to admit, there was a possibility of that.

Now that "Mission and Choice" had been officially released, everything was settled, and it was time for Tang Yishu to play a role in more critical areas.

"I plan to transfer you to a different position."

"Tenda is going to start a new game platform recently. How about you go work there?"

Tang Yishu's first reaction was to shake her head: "That won't work, Senior. I don't know anything about games."

Pei Qian smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter, this job doesn't require you to know much about games."

"With your experience at Tenda for more than a year, it should be enough for you to handle this job."

"Even if you encounter some minor problems, you can explore and learn slowly."

Tang Yishu thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, Senior, then I'll go there with a learning mindset to intern. Who is my direct supervisor?"

Pei Qian pointed to himself: "Me."

"Ah?" Tang Yishu was a little confused, "What I mean is, shouldn't I be working under the person in charge of the game platform when I go there to intern? Who's the person in charge?"

Pei Qian pointed to her: "You."

Tang Yishu looked incredulous: "Me? Aren't I going there to intern?"

Pei Qian shook his head: "Who said you're going to intern? From the beginning, it was for you to be in charge there."

Tang Yishu's face flushed slightly, and she waved her hands repeatedly: "That won't work, Senior, how could I be in charge? I don't know anything, and besides, I'm only a sophomore!"

Pei Qian didn't take it seriously: "What's wrong with being a sophomore?"

"When I was a sophomore, I was already managing hundreds of Tenda employees and had made several games."

Tang Yishu quickly said: "I can't compare to Senior, I really don't know anything about games, and I still have schoolwork to do..."

Pei Qian thought to himself, heh, you think I know anything about games?

If I did, would I be making hits one after another?

Besides, it's precisely because you don't understand that I'm looking for you!

He had already expected that Tang Yishu would definitely decline, so Pei Qian had already prepared his argument in advance: "Trust me, you'll definitely be fine."

"Everyone who leaves Tenda can stand on their own two feet!"

"What's more, this job isn't as difficult as you think, it's actually very simple."

"I'll transfer some employees to assist you. If there's anything you don't understand, just ask them. Besides, if you really can't handle it, you can come to me, what's there to worry about?"

"As for your schoolwork..."

"This job won't be very busy, you can just take some time out to handle it. Besides, for a genius like you, even if you study two hours less every day, you'll still get a scholarship, it won't make any difference."

Tang Yishu twisted her fingers and hesitated for a while, finally nodding: "Okay, Senior, I'll try."

"But I have a request, can I choose someone I'm familiar with to go with me? If that doesn't work, I can even let her take my place."

Pei Qian nodded: "No problem."

He said no problem, but what Pei Qian was thinking was, it's absolutely impossible for someone to take your place.

If someone else was in charge of this game platform, how could I be at ease?

But Pei Qian also knew that forcing someone to do something would not be very successful, so he should try to satisfy Little Tang's request as much as possible.

Anyway, he would first trick her into becoming the person in charge, and once she was on the pirate ship, it would be difficult to get off.

"Then I'll briefly explain the situation of this game platform, you can take some notes."

Tang Yishu quickly said: "Wait a moment, Senior, I'll go get a notebook."

She quickly got up and left the office, and after a moment, she came back with a notebook.

Pei Qian nodded, well, a bad memory is better than good ink, it's always good to remember things clearly.

Although this game platform was being done very casually, some basic rules still had to be explained to Little Tang.

These rules could ensure that the game platform was hidden for a longer time and burned more money.

"First of all, you need to register a new company. Tenda will invest through Round Dream Ventures, holding 70% of the shares. The remaining 30% of the shares will be jointly held by all the core employees of the new company."

"Don't reveal the relationship between this company and Tenda to the public, and don't create any connection with Tenda's various industries."

"For example, don't put Tenda's games on the platform, don't go to the TPDB website, don't do any joint promotions with Tenda's peripheral industries, and so on."

"Not only you, but all the employees of the platform must remember this."

"As for why... don't ask now, you'll understand later."

Pei Qian had also thought for a long time about how to separate the new industry from Tenda.

Tenda's funds definitely had to enter these industries.

If it was a wholly-owned subsidiary, it would be relatively easy to expose, but what about a company invested in by Round Dream Ventures?

That would be relatively easy to hide!

For example, Che Rong's Star Bird Fitness, and other companies invested in by Round Dream Ventures... most people wouldn't regard them as part of the Tenda system.

After all, Round Dream Ventures didn't pick and choose at all, and invested in too many companies, including many that performed mediocrely.

So, wouldn't hiding the new industry among the companies invested in by Round Dream Ventures greatly reduce the risk of being discovered?

If he deliberately told all employees to keep it secret, just like Qiu Hong's Desperate Plan back then, then the possibility of being discovered would be further reduced.

The TPDB website was a hidden danger, after all, it had an employee entrance, and all departments of Tenda could check it on the website. But if it wasn't a wholly-owned subsidiary, it wouldn't appear on the TPDB website.

There were no websites similar to Tianyancha now, so if ordinary netizens didn't dig to the bottom, it would be difficult to uncover the relationship between Morning Dew Games Platform and Tenda Group.

Tang Yishu didn't ask any more questions, and lowered her head to record in her notebook.

Pei Qian continued: "And then there's the issue of game revenue sharing and the trial period..."

Simply put, the games listed on the platform would have a 50/50 revenue split, and all games had to go through a one-week trial period. If the trial period was not passed, the game would be removed and refunded.

Tang Yishu stopped halfway through her notes.

"Senior, I didn't quite understand this part."

"The 50/50 revenue split is easy to understand, and the trial period is also easy to understand."

"But, if the trial period isn't passed, does that mean that players won't have any games to play, and they'll only get half of their money back?"

Pei Qian shook his head: "Of course not."

"The game has a refund time limit. If players haven't played the game for more than the refund time limit, for example, only played for two hours, then they'll go through the normal refund process, a full refund."

"But if they've exceeded this refund time limit, it means that the players have already experienced the fun of the game, and may have even experienced the most interesting part of the game. At this time, giving a full refund would definitely be unfair to the developers."

"Therefore, half of this money goes to the players, and half goes to the developers. This means: although this game is of poor quality and will be removed, players can buy and keep it in their game library for half price. In this way, neither the players nor the developers will be at a great loss."

Anyway, he couldn't leave it to his own platform.

Giving it all to the players would be too attractive to the players; giving it all to the developers would also be quite attractive to the developers, and the dissuasion effect wouldn't be obvious. Therefore, Pei Qian decided to split it, half and half, so that he could dissuade both players and developers.

Tang Yishu nodded, indicating that she understood.

But soon, she raised a new question.

"But in that case, if players give all the games a 'do not recommend' rating, causing all the games in the trial period to be removed, wouldn't that be equivalent to being able to buy games at half price all the time?"

Pei Qian almost laughed out loud.

Was there really such a good thing?

You're too optimistic, I wouldn't even dare to think about such a thing!

Obviously, Little Tang was still too simple and didn't understand the ins and outs of this.

Pei Qian explained: "There will definitely be such people, but they won't be the mainstream of the player base."

"If we consider this more extreme situation, where players frantically give bad reviews during the trial period in order to buy an excellent game at half price, causing it to be removed. Then the problem that arises from this is: this game will no longer have any updates on our platform, and there will be no subsequent DLCs or anything like that; and future players won't be able to buy this game anymore."

"So, if you think a game is excellent and want to play it for a long time, then it's best not to let it be removed; if you think a game isn't very good, and there won't be any loss if it's removed, then you can vote to remove it."

"We won't guide players to make choices, players choose for themselves, and they bear the consequences themselves."

"Most players can still distinguish between immediate interests and long-term interests."
