Novel Full Chapter 133 Boss Pei’s Strategy to Mislead the Enemy!
Ma Yang was a little stunned; his eyes then welled up. “Brother Qian, even though things had deteriorated to this stage you still trust me. I really…”
Pei Qian patted Ma Yang’s shoulder and then looked at Zhang Yuan. “Remember, I always have high hopes for you two; that has not changed! So what if we made losses of three hundred thousand monthly? This is peanuts! Tengda is now a big company, and there’s no point in having so much money lying around. It needs to be put into good use!
“I will repeat this again: Fish-Catching Internet Cafe is an important step for Tengda Corporation. I look at this project very highly, and so I have tasked it to you two. You two can now forget about profits completely. You cannot lower the fees that we are charging. All you have to do is maintain the status quo, understand?
“Ma Yang, don’t think about the three hundred thousand. Even if it’s three million or thirty million, as long as you honestly follow my instructions, no matter how much you might lose; I will not frown even once!
“Rest assured and be bold. I’ll say this again: no matter how much loss you guys make, I’ll take care of it!”
Pei Qian looked at the uneasy employees in the internet cafe.
“It is the same for you guys. I don’t want you guys to have any emotional burdens. I will guarantee here and now that no matter how much loss Fish-Catching Internet Cafe makes, I will never retrench any one of you brothers!
“All my brothers working in this internet cafe will all get an across-the-board thirty-percent raise. I hope that everyone will continue to be filled with passion and give the best possible service to each customer!
“Next month, we will actually be opening new internet cafes in Jingzhou City. When that happens, all of you will have the chance to become a branch manager at the new outlets!”
Pei Qian’s words were filled with fervor and excitement that it made everyone’s morale shoot through the roof.
The few servers’ eyes lit up! Across-the-board raise!
Furthermore, branches were going to be opened soon; and the new branch manager would be chosen from existing employees!
Nuts! This was nuts!
Originally, everyone had been afraid Boss Pei would give up on this endeavor because of the persistent losses the internet cafe was incurring; they were afraid that someday, they would find themselves out of such a good job. Instead, Boss Pei did not intend to abandon anyone; he actually wanted to lift everyone up altogether!
Now, everyone’s hearts only had one thought: to give their all for Boss Pei!
“Alright, i’ll head back first. Leaving the internet cafe to you, I am very assured.” Pei Qian patted Ma Yang’s arm as he turned and left.
Watching as Pei Qian sat in Assistant Xin’s Cayenne and left, Ma Yang’s emotion welled up. “I will think of new ideas now; I will not lose to Huang Sibo!”
Zhang Yuan was also full of gusto. “It’s almost night. I will sing a few more songs tonight; I will try and get more customers to come and buy alcohol!”
In the car…
Pei Qian was very clear what impact his morale-boosting actions and speech would have for the Fish-Catching Internet Cafe employees.
However, he wasn’t worried. So many things have already gone wrong; no matter how much they tried to buck up now, it was futile!
Ma Yang was very excited; so what?
Pei Qian wasn’t worried at all that he would be able to do anything outstanding. Even if Zhang Yuan did his best to sell more alcohol and sang his songs with more gusto, so what? Even if the other servers treated every customer like a king, so what?
The price range and location of this Fish-Catching Internet Cafe was more than sufficient to dissuade the majority of customers from coming.
Even if all the employees did their best-to set prices so high at this location, ballers wouldn’t come. Normal people who couldn’t afford it wouldn’t patronize as well. Not much would change.
Furthermore, once Pei Qian started to open branches next month, the losses would continue to snowball; wouldn’t everything start to look better then?
Pei Qian was back at the office. He felt that he had nothing better to do now, and he waited quietly for the settlement to come. This time, the company employees have been given free rein; they could do whatever they liked.
However, when Pei Qian entered the office today, he felt that the atmosphere wasn’t right.
It seemed a little boisterous!
Quite a few people were surrounding Lu Mingliang; he wasn’t sure what they were looking at, but everyone was smiling gleefully. Furthermore, Pei Qian actually saw Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce among them as well.
What were the two doing here?
Pei Qian instinctively grew cautious! These two were his jinxes; whenever Pei Qian saw them, nothing good would happen!
I need to rethink and see; did I miss out on something?
Game Designer had already gained in popularity. So had Boss Pei’s Daily Life. I had just come from the internet cafe; it was making losses splendidly, and nothing was amiss, right?
Boss Pei was already someone buried in the ground now; what other bad news could there be? What was this group of people furtively discussing?
He was feeling rather diffident now…
“Boss Pei’s back!” Someone yelled out.
Huang Sibo walked to Boss Pei, looking very excited as he said, “Boss Pei, I never expected that you had laid all the groundwork so splendidly! I really have so much admiration for you!”
Lu Mingliang also sighed with emotion, “Indeed, who could have thought that a casual remark by Boss Pei could actually have so much meaning!”
Ma Yiqun raised his thumb, “Devising a strategy for a victory far away; this indeed refers to Boss Pei!”
Pei Qian was being praised by everyone as his mind drew a blank.
What were they talking about? Why didn’t I understand anything?
Pei Qian tried hard to maintain his composure. “What has happened?”
Bao Xu came in front of Pei Qian. The normally calm and steady Bao Xu’s face was also now filled with admiration. “Boss Pei, you had said before to not allow us to divulge your true identity as well as Tengda’s employee benefits and salaries. Initially, I had only realized the first layer of your intention behind this.
“I thought that you didn’t want Tengda’s extremely high benefits to negatively impact the entire domestic games industry. Now, I finally know that there was another layer to this!
“Boss Pei, look at this article!”
Bao Xu handed over his phone as a news article read: ‘Getting a closer look at the mysterious Tengda Games: the domestic games industry Utopia!’
Pei Qian’s brows were raised high instinctively.
What the f*ck?! Who did this?!
As he scanned through the article, Pei Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
Okay, not much damage had been done!
In this article, it had not mentioned his real name and nothing regarding Tengda’s benefits. The entire article didn’t even mention who the interviewee had been; it was not very reliable. However, what was it about this article, then?
Why was everyone so happy?
Seeing that Pei Qian had finished reading, Bao Xu couldn’t contain himself anymore as he carried on. He wasn’t someone who liked to boast. However, today, he really wanted to brag! On one hand, he hoped that he could gain Boss Pei’s recognition. On the other hand, he hoped that he could share with everyone such an elaborate plan!
“Boss Pei, you have purposely hidden your true identity as well as Tengda’s benefits; this strategy of misleading the enemy is really brilliant! Game Designer had relied on its high quality and exceptional ‘performance art-style marketing’ to create such a reputation for itself domestically.
“While Boss Pei’s Daily Life had also accrued much interest in the short video industry, resulting in much debate on it. However, I never would have thought that they were both parts of your strategy!
“Game Designer and Boss Pei’s Daily Life are like two burning flames. All Boss Pei had to do was lightly toss a spark, and the two had immolated and formed an even bigger flame that is now burning brighter and brighter!”
“This spark… was your misleading strategy!
“After this article came out, players and short videos viewers suddenly have grown much more interested in our company! If it was a real article, perhaps they might not be able to sustain their excitement.”
“However, this article’s misleading reporting has instantly triggered a huge amount of revelations, with the real and fake news mixed together. This topic has instantly become hot!
“Tengda Games’ as a topic has become a hot topic on Weibo, with a huge group of netizens being redirected. Some have been redirected to our current games while others have been diverted to the short video series! These two days, the popularity of all our games has increased; even The Lonely Desert Road as well!
“The short videos have done even better. Everyone episode’s average viewership has increased by three to four hundred thousand. Many are also curious: is Tengda’s boss like the Boss Pei in the short videos?
“I believe that the day Boss Pei’s real identity is made known, it will spark an even bigger wave! I’m just not sure when Boss Pei is preparing to toss this grenade; perhaps when we release our next game?
“I’m really looking forward to it!” Facing this surge of bootlicking, Pei Qian was really stunned to the core.
What was the meaning of this? I have already been buried in the ground. I thought that things couldn’t get any worse. Yet, you guys have even excavated my body?
