  August 9th, Thursday…


  In an ordinary-looking office building in the southwestern region of Jingzhou…


  Tang Yishu sat in the center of the conference table in the conference room. Li Yada and Meng Chang sat on either side of her.

  The other employees took their seats around him.

  Other companies might have more requirements for the seating arrangement, but in Tengda, the most central position was more important. It must be the person-in-charge of the department. The other seats were more casual.

  This was a tradition that had been passed down from Boss Pei.

  That was because Boss Pei’s seat was the most important. It did not matter where the others sat.

  As time went by, the various departments inherited this tradition.

  Li Yada took a look and saw that everyone was present. She then cleared her throat and said, “The conditions here are more difficult. Please overcome them.”


  “We have to keep this a secret this time. We cannot reveal our relationship with Tengda. Everyone must remember this. Don’t let it slip.”


  Everyone nodded, looking very motivated.

  Everyone had shares!

  They did not have many shares, and it was just an empty check at the moment. However, they had Tengda as their backing after all. Who would dare to ignore the value of these shares?

  Of course, he had to set up a good gaming platform!

  However, speaking of which, the working environment here was indeed incomparable to Tengda.

  The work desks were not as spacious as Tengda’s, and the desks and chairs were not as expensive as Tengda’s. In short, they were considered above average in most companies.

  For people who were used to Tengda’s office environment, the office environment here could only be considered… barely usable.

  However, everyone could overcome it.

  He was here to carry out a secret mission!

  Everyone’s current mentality was like a spy pretending to be an ordinary person. So what if the conditions were more difficult? These were all work needs!

  These people were core members transferred from Tengda’s various departments, including Tengda Games, Shang Yang Games, TPB website, and so on.

  They were all old employees who were deeply inspired by the Tengda spirit and followed Boss Pei’s lead.

  It should not be a problem to keep it a secret.

  Pei Qian had specifically instructed for this slightly simple office environment.

  After all, it was rare to see Tengda’s luxurious working environment. Anyone who came to take a look would basically realize that something was amiss.

  Therefore, the details had to be handled well. No one would be able to tell that this was actually a stronghold of Tengda no matter whether it was the office or the office environment.

  Why was it so confidential?

  No one knew.

  However, since Boss Pei had requested it, there must be a special meaning. Everyone just had to follow it.

  They were all old Tengda people who had passed the mental test. They were very obedient.

  The office space was not specially chosen at Shenhua View. Instead, he found an office building slightly further away and rented an office area. The office tables and chairs in this place were left behind by the previous company. They could make do with it and further enhance the disguise effect.

  In addition, the number of games-related companies in Jingzhou has greatly increased in the past two years. Dawn Games platform should be able to be hidden very well.

  As for why the number of game-related companies increased significantly… It was obviously because of a certain convergence effect caused by Tengda.

  Everyone knew that Tengda was the gaming company that most local talents wanted to join.

  Tengda had recruitment examinations twice a year, but very few people could enter Tengda to work.

  A large number of gaming practitioners could not enter Tengda. They could only settle for the next best thing and work in other companies first, looking for opportunities to continue participating in the next Tengda recruitment exam.

  At the same time, the entrepreneurial environment in Jingzhou was also changing. There were more and more young people, and the city was becoming more and more livable. Thus, many gaming companies, including art outsourcing companies and some internet startups, also chose to settle in Jingzhou.

  Ruan Guangjian’s workspace moved from Shanghai to Jingzhou was a good example.

  Therefore, these talents that Tengda could not absorb entered other games companies or related companies in Jingzhou. Other games companies saw that the environment in Jingzhou was not bad and chose to move over.

  This formed a virtuous cycle.

  Before this, the games industry in Jingzhou was not developed and Tengda stood out. It would be strange if a channel merchant and a gaming platform suddenly appeared.

  However, there were more local games companies in Jingzhou than before. There were also some small channels. Thus, Dawn Games platform would not stick out with its abrupt appearance. It could be hidden.

  Li Yada looked at Tang Yishu and reminded her. “Introduce us briefly to our work for the time being.”


  Tang Yishu had held many regular meetings with the Manage Loss Trainees before but they were her juniors after all. They were at the same level at most.

  On the other hand, most of the employees on Zhaolu Games were more than four or five years older than her. They were all experienced old employees.

  Tang Yishu was very pressured to give these people a meeting.

  Thus, as her assistant, Li Yada had to help guide her.

  Tang Yishu adjusted her emotions and kept trying to convince herself to take it as a regular meeting with the Management Trainees. She gradually calmed down and got down to business.

  Everyone listened intently without any contempt on their faces.

  Everyone knew that Tang Yishu was only an intern previously and was only in her second year of university. However, who would dare to have any objections to the person-in-charge that Boss Pei had personally appointed?

  As a Tengda employee, she had to keep this in mind: the line between ordinary employees and department heads was very vague. As an ordinary employee, she should not belittle herself. As a department head, she should not be arrogant.

  However, as long as it was the person-in-charge that Boss Pei had appointed, it must have made sense. It represented Boss Pei’s will. Thus, she had to ask less and do things steadily.

  When the person-in-charge achieved results and left with the Dream Fund, it might be his turn.

  Tang Yishu had already discussed the contents of the meeting with Li Yada in advance. Thus, she successfully arranged the early work.

  First, she reiterated the things that Boss Pei had repeatedly instructed her to take note of. Then, he set up some work like developing the Dawn of Games’ platform program, contacting various games companies in advance to discuss cooperation and fill up the game library.

  In fact, the person-in-charge had already started on these tasks. However, it was the first meeting after all. He had to emphasize it. It was mainly to let everyone know the work of others so that they could communicate in the future.

  Everyone might be Tengda’s employees but they were transferred from different departments after all. Many people did not know each other so communication still had to be strengthened.

  Li Yada spoke after Tang Yishu finished introducing the work.

  “At the moment, we have already discussed two local games companies in Jingzhou. They will bring the game over to discuss this afternoon.”


  “In the near future, there will probably be companies coming to talk about cooperation.”


  “Don’t think that it is too complicated or feel uncomfortable. Just do what you have to do.”


  “Also, let me introduce everyone. This is Meng Chang. He will be deeply in charge of our platform’s publicity in the future. He will work with us for the next one or two months. If you have any questions about publicity, you can ask him.”


  Meng Chang, who was sitting on Tang Yishu’s right, nodded at everyone.

  This time, Meng Chang could participate in the specific affairs of the Dawn Games platform. That was what Boss Pei had agreed to. Since Meng Chang wanted to implement the “Pei Family’s publicity method”, he naturally had to go deeper into the project. Otherwise, the chances of this publicity method succeeding would greatly decrease.

  The others were obviously not that passionate about Meng Chang.

  Meng Chang seemed to have helped Slow Movement Studio complete the publicity of the Doubt VR glasses previously but his impression of most people was still relatively negative after all. It was difficult to reverse this impression in a short time.

  Slow Movement Studio was a person with experience and had already accepted Meng Chang. However, these employees did not know the relevant inside information. Naturally, they had some prejudice.

  Meng Chang keenly felt this from the atmosphere in the conference room.

  He felt that he should say something to change everyone’s stereotype of him.

  Otherwise, if everyone was on guard against him and could not fulfill the requirement of “in-depth understanding and full control”, how would the Pei Family’s publicity method be effective?

  The Pei family’s publicity method was very particular about converting forces and was very particular about the process of becoming popular.

  If the games platform did not trust him, this process might very well meet with huge resistance from within. The chances of success would be too low.

  The success rate of the Pei family’s publicity method would only be higher if they unified their thinking.

  What’s more, Meng Chang’s current goal was the same as Boss Pei and Tengda Corporation.

  Others might not know, but Meng Chang knew it very well. Thus, he had a clear conscience.

  “Everyone might have some misunderstanding of me. I want to clarify.”


  “I did make some mistakes before, but I’ve already realized my mistakes. I’m now in charge of publicity in Tengda. It’s not only to repay my debts, but also to learn.”


  “In the future, something that everyone might find difficult to understand might happen during the publicity process.”


  “I can guarantee to everyone that this is part of Boss Pei’s publicity plan. In the long term, it will definitely be beneficial to the platform and the company.”


  “Therefore, I hope that everyone can cooperate with me to do the publicity work together.”


  Meng Chang sounded quite sincere. Many people were obviously interested.

  Someone asked, “Something hard to understand? What exactly do you mean?”


  Meng Chang explained, “In the beginning, there might be some unsatisfactory situations. For example, we invested a lot of publicity resources but did not achieve the corresponding effect.”


  The person who asked the question was silent for a moment. Then, he said, “How should we judge if you did it deliberately or if it was a real publicity mistake?”


  Meng Chang cleared his throat. This brother was rather straightforward.

  However, it did not matter. Meng Chang felt that he was upright and did not fear the shadows.

  “Since that’s the case, I’ll explain a few simple questions to everyone so that everyone would have a certain understanding of the ‘Pei family publicity method’ that I want to use. Naturally, they would not be surprised in the future.”


  “First, let me ask everyone the most basic question. Do you know why Boss Pei repeatedly emphasized that Dawn Games platform must cut off its relationship with Tengda?”


  Everyone’s expressions became serious as they pricked up their ears to listen.

  That was because they really did not know!

  Even Li Yada felt confused when she first heard about this.

  Meng Chang smiled slightly. “Everyone seated here are core employees of Tengda. You can understand Boss Pei’s intentions very well in terms of game understanding, but you’re not as good as me in terms of publicity.”


  “This involves an important principle of the Pei family’s publicity method: Cutting reputation and cutting ties!”


  “If a certain project were to publicize its relationship with Tengda from the beginning, it would attract a lot of attention and make the start smoother. However, it would also make everyone have high expectations for this project.”


  “However, how can you start off so perfectly after entering a new industry?”


  “Once something imperfect happens, it’s easy for everyone to feel disappointed. This popularity and attention have become a burden.”


  “At the same time, if the start is too smooth, it would be difficult to verify whether this new business model is really successful or just because it borrows Tengda’s reputation.”


  “On the other hand, if we cut off our relationship with Tengda, it might look more difficult on the surface, but we can also freely trial and error and verify if this business model will work.”


  “It doesn’t matter if we fail now. It won’t have much impact. We can just change the mistake and start afresh. If we succeed, Tengda’s reputation and resources will take off instantly!”


  “In fact, all the negative factors from before can be converted into positive factors. Through reverse, we can achieve the best effect that is far better than ordinary publicity methods!”


  Everyone looked like they had just realized something.

  So that was why!

  That made sense!

  It was no wonder that Boss Pei had arranged for Meng Chang to be in charge of publicity. It looked like Meng Chang had indeed obtained Boss Pei’s teachings in publicity and knew Boss Pei’s way of publicity.

  Since that was the case, the misunderstanding was cleared!

  Meng Chang said, “Therefore, I hope that everyone can cooperate with me to complete Boss Pei’s publicity goal together. I will definitely not disappoint everyone.”
