Wu Bin was also at the venue of the annual meeting.
He helped distribute coins and consumer vouchers, introducing the process to his colleagues together with the other employees of the HR department.

Wu Bin had no complaints even though he had to work on the day of the annual meeting.
He was, instead,very happy.

That was because of participation and pride!

Wu Bin could not help but think about last year’s annual meeting.
At that time, he had just joined Tengd and had failed the first Tengda Spirit compatibility test.

As an intern, Wu Bin did not even have the right to participate in normal work, much less overtime.
He could only try his best to figure out the Tengda spirit every day.
He felt a little disappointed when he saw that his colleagues were busy but he could not interfere.

Even though Wu Bin attended the annual meeting as an intern last year, he did not miss out on any of the prizes that he should have won.
This made him feel the warmth of home.

After a year of hard work, Wu Bin had become an indispensable member of Tengda’s HR department!

Not only had he personally participated in two recruitment drives for new employees, but he had also summarized the Tengda spirit and provided spiritual guidance to all new employees who joined Tengda.

Now, Wu Bin felt that he had become an indispensable member of Tengda.
It was also a blessing to be able to take charge of the preparations for the annual meeting and play a role in his own position!

Soon, Wu Bin saw many familiar faces, including the person-in-charge and core members of the various departments.
There were also some new faces.
They should be new employees that he had hired in the previous recruitment drive.

This recruitment process had eliminated a small number of people.
The passing rate was no longer 100% including the Tengda Spirit compatibility test.

However, Wu Bin felt that this was a good thing.
These new employees who had passed the test were the ones who were truly compatible with the Tengda spirit.
They would definitely play a greater role in their own jobs!

That was because Wu Bin was from the HR department.
He could access these personnel files.
Thus, he had an impression of both new and old employees.

The old employees were expectant but a little surprised while the new employees were completely shocked at the process of the annual meeting this year.

It was completely different from what they had imagined!

In fact, when they found out that the annual meeting would be held in a faraway place, the new employees had already guessed that it would be a completely different annual meeting from other companies.
However, they did not expect it to be so blissful.

There was nothing annoying about this annual meeting.
It was a celebration for the employees themselves.

The old employees who had attended the annual meeting in the past might have been mentally prepared, but the standards and procedures of this year’s annual meeting had far exceeded their expectations.

Most of the employees did not even dare to imagine that there would be such a perfect annual meeting!

Everyone’s faces were brimming with happiness.
They could not wait to go to the shopping mall to spend after receiving the tokens, consumer vouchers, and red packets.

During weekends and legal holidays, there would be hundreds of thousands of customers every day.
The capacity of the shopping mall itself was very terrifying.

It was a work day so there were very few people to begin with.
Tengda Corporation’s two thousand people would not make much of a splash even if they were thrown in.
The total flow of people in the shopping mall was moderate and was between deserted and crowded.

Only when nearly two thousand people returned to the top level for the lottery at the same time would there be more traffic.
However, it would be similar to the GPL’s regular competition day.

One by one, the employees returned to the shopping mall to eat and shop after reaching the eighth floor.
Everyone’s faces were filled with happiness.

When the check-in process was almost done, the HR department would also go ahead to enjoy themselves, leaving only a few people to take turns on duty.

Wu Bin looked at the tablet computer in front of him.
All the departments were rather punctual.
Almost all of them had arrived.

“Eh, Bao Xu isn’t here?”

“Could it be that he was afraid that he would win another prize and go on a holiday, so he didn’t even attend the annual meeting?”

“That ruthless?”

“Oh, that’s not right.
He seems to still be in Los Angeles and won’t be able to come…”

Bao Xu was an employee of Tengda Games, and he was very experienced.
That was why he was near the top of the list.
Wu Bin was able to see at a glance that he had yet to sign in.

Many people from the other departments might not have seen Bao Xu before, but they have definitely heard of his legend.

GOG had produced a hero for him, and The Lonely Desert Road’s downloadable content had also produced an Easter egg for him after all.
Everyone would think that the award was incomplete if the award was to travel overseas and it was not won by Bao Xu.

Wu Bin had thought that Bao Xu had deliberately not come because he was afraid that he would be selected to travel again.
However, when he saw Min Jingchao, Ye Zhizhou, and the others’ names, he immediately realized that they could not come because they were still in Los Angeles and had not returned.

The IOI International Finals in Los Angeles would only hold their finals this weekend.
Victory or defeat would depend on this.
The entire FV team and the data analysis team should still be in intense preparation.
As a member of the data analysis team, Bao Xu must also be busy with this matter.

Wu Bin felt that it was a pity, but he did not pay much attention to it.
He took his consumer voucher and went to the shopping mall with his colleagues to find a place to eat seeing that it was about time.

…

At the same time, in the independent game incubation base in Beijing…

“Alright, it’s done!”

“I can finally rest in peace and go home for the new year.”

“You’ll be on holiday after you’ve finished all the work.
You can continue developing it after the new year.”

Qiu Hong played the demo and watched the promotional video of Black Ink and Clouds one last time.
He was very satisfied with them.

It could be said that the success of the Survival Guide for Working Adults previously had given Qiu Hong and the entire Destitution Plan a boost.

Qiu Hong decided to strike while the iron was hot.
He wanted to make use of the current popularity of the Survival Guide for Working Adults to release a promotional video and demo of Black Ink and Clouds to let more people know about the Destitution Plan.

In addition, he could also start the pre-sales of Black Ink and Clouds in advance to test the waters and see how the gamers would react.

The only limitation that Boss Pei had for the Destitution Plan was that he could not reveal the relationship between Tengda Corporation and the Destitution Plan to the outside world.
He did not forbid Qiu Hong from promoting the Destitution Plan.

That was because Pei Qian felt that publicity would not affect the success or failure of this matter.
After all, there were many competitions and activities in the country that supported independent games.
They were all heavily promoted, but the results were minimal.

Qiu Hong himself did not think that the publicity this time would have much of an effect.
He would be able to let domestic gamers who liked independent games know that there was a ‘destitution plan’ at the very most.

On one hand, it was because there were very few standalone games on the computer compared to online games and mobile games in China.
Most of them liked mainstream game modes and 3A games.
Very few players liked to play independent games on the internet.
On the other hand, the development of the game was a commercial activity after all.
It was not moral abduction, but even if it was, it would not be effective.

It would be a very stupid act if a game developer kept emphasizing how difficult it was for them, hoping to gain players’ sympathy so that they could sell more games.
It would, instead, cause players to feel disgusted.

Players would only care if you could produce a good game.
If you could, they would pay for it.
If you could not, you could only blame yourself for failing to make money.

That was why Qiu Hong had chosen the time where Survival Guide for Working Adults was still popular to publicize his Destitution Plan.

However, no matter what, this was a good start.

At the incubation base, Xi Hao, Wu Zhicheng, and the others were each in charge of different tasks.
After the videos and DEMO checks were done correctly, they connected with ESRO’s official platform staff and uploaded the Black Ink and Clouds demo.
Moreover, they had also added publicity of the Destitution Plan on related promotional pictures videos from the Survival Guide for Working Adults and Black Ink and Clouds.

Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief when they were done.

Fortunately, he managed to produce some results before the Chinese New Year.
He did not let Boss Qiu down!

They might not know who the boss behind Boss Qiu was but it did not affect their respect for him.

That was because the boss was very generous.

They had already learned from Qiu Hong that the employees of the incubation base had a considerable amount of year-end bonuses.
There were also various gifts, red packets, and consumer vouchers.
Every independent game designer also had special gifts.

The boss behind Boss Qiu not only invested money to support independent games as a good deed, he was also so generous to everyone.
How bad would they feel if they could not produce results!

It was a good thing that they had achieved some results.
Everyone could finally go home and celebrate the new year with a peace of mind.

The independent game makers represented by Wu Zhi were secretly determined to wait until the end of the Chinese New Year to return to work harder and earnestly to make their games well!

This was not only for themselves, but also for the incubation staff that had been helping him out and the mysterious boss!

…

In Jingzhou, Tengda’s employees were happily shopping in the shopping mall.
They would be watched with envy no matter where they went.

Normal customers would settle their bills in cash, swipe their cards, or scan their QR code after eating.
However, Tengda’s employees could eat as if everything were free.
They would take out a lunch voucher and hand it to the front desk when they had to foot the bill.
Then, they would leave.

It was the same for shopping.
One thousand yuan worth of consumer vouchers could be spent at will.
Most people would choose to buy clothes.
After all, there were digital products and appliances in the prizes for the annual meeting.
The chances of winning them were very high.
It would not be to their advantage if they won them again after buying.

Many people who did not know the truth watched as Tengda’s employees took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to the employees before leaving.
Their faces were filled with shock and confusion.

It was only after asking the staff that he found out that Tengda was holding an annual meeting in the shopping mall today.
Both the lunch vouchers and consumer vouchers were distributed by the company and were fully reimbursed.

Some people walked to the eighth floor and realized that the place had changed drastically from the past.
There were claw machines and various small game venues everywhere.
They only knew that Tengda had booked the entire place after asking around.
Employees could play as they pleased, but outsiders could not enter.

They felt nothing but envy, jealousy, and hatred!

What were their companies when compared to Tengda!

They had long heard that Tengda’s benefits were good, but they had no idea how good the benefits really were.

However, now, they had seen Tengda’s employees shopping, eating, playing games, and using the GPL venue as a lucky draw…

All sorts of photos were posted online, causing a heated discussion.

Many people were stimulated and began to prepare for the Tengda recruitment exam in the future.

Such a company was worthy to fight for.
They had to get in no matter what!

Everyone on the internet was moved.
This was definitely not Tengda’s annual meeting but their recruitment advertisement!
