Chapter 1247: Hu Xianbin’s Mind

Yu Fei had long heard that Bao Xu was a god who was proficient in almost all games. It was reasonable for him to study combat games.

However, the key was that Bao Xu was no longer in the gaming department. He was in charge of Suffering Travels!

They fell into a deadlock once again.

Suddenly, Hu Xianbin had a flash of inspiration. “Eh, speaking of Brother Bao, I suddenly have a good idea!”

“If this idea can be realized, the two of us might be able to achieve a win-win situation!”

“Wait, let me think about the details.”

Yu Fei looked confused. He did not know what Hu Xianbin meant by ‘win-win situation’.

Hu Xianbin seemed to be calculating something as a genuine smile spread across his face.

He would definitely suffer during this trip to Shennongjia. Hu Xianbin knew this very well.

It was impossible not to go, but there would be differences even if they were to suffer.

The schedule was basically set. Bao Xu would be going on this trip as well.

When they first heard about this, Hu Xianbin and Huang Sibo were shocked.

Didn’t Bao Xu hate traveling the most?

Logically speaking, Bao Xu was in charge of the Suffering Travels now. Shouldn’t he send the others out and leave himself in Jingzhou to play games happily?

Why was he going there himself?

After everyone analyzed it, they realized that this was a very dangerous signal.

Indeed, Bao Xu did not like to go out and run around. He basically could not get any fun from traveling.

In that case, the reason why he took the initiative to go out this time must be because he would be able to have more fun than staying in Jingzhou.

Where was the source of this pleasure?

Obviously, he wanted to watch others suffer…

Bao Xu might be very comfortable staying in Jingzhou but how would he be able to see these people suffer up close?

That was why Bao Xu decided to follow them and watch them suffer up close!

After thinking about this question, Hu Xianbin and the others shuddered.

Obviously, this trip to Shennongjia might not be dangerous, but he would definitely suffer…

What if Bao Xu did not go?

Even though Sa Ziran was very professional in wilderness survival, he would definitely not be as ruthless as Bao Xu.

The people in charge could naturally suffer less.

However, it was not so easy to keep Bao Xu in Jingzhou. That meant that Bao Xu had to willingly give up watching them suffer.

However, there was now a more suitable reason.

Tengda Games was in trouble and needed Brother Bao to save it!

Hu Xianbin had a better understanding of Bao Xu’s character. Bao Xu might have been a little overwhelmed by ‘revenge’ but he should not stand by and do nothing when the games department encountered problems.

Then…

He would probably be able to persuade Bao Xu to stay and help as long as he tried to reason and move, design time was tight and the development task was serious.

Even though he could not cancel the trip to Shennongjia fundamentally, as long as Bao Xu did not go, everyone’s suffering would definitely improve greatly!

After all, Sa Ziran did not dare to be so harsh. Everything would be fine as long as Bao Xu was not there.

At that thought, Hu Xianbin said, “How about this? You can ask Brother Bao for help, but don’t say that I asked you to go.”

“Otherwise, it might arouse his suspicion.”

“As long as you can convince Brother Bao to help, this design problem will definitely be resolved!”

Yu Fei was a little hesitant. “Will… this work? I’m not familiar with Brother Bao.”

Hu Xianbin nodded. “Sure, it’s because you’re not familiar with him that you can persuade him.”

Almost everyone who was familiar with him had voted for him before. They were all recorded in his little notebook.

If Hu Xianbin went to look for Bao Xu, Bao Xu would definitely suspect his motives immediately.

However, Yu Fei was different. Firstly, he had never voted for Bao Xu and did not incur a direct hatred with Bao Xu. Secondly, on the surface, he looked like he had nothing to do with the Suffering Travels. He would not be suspected if he looked for Bao Xu to help. Lastly, Yu Fei indeed did not understand combat games and was not good at game design. He really needed help.

Considering the situation, Bao Xu’s heart was actually very likely to turn soft!

Hu Xianbin could also use this opportunity to reduce the difficulty of his tortuous journey and suffer less.

Yu Fei nodded. “Alright, I’ll try.”

Since Hu Xianbin was not here to take over, he could only hold out for another month.

He had wanted to give up at first. However, since Hu Xianbin had pointed out a clear path, he might as well ask Bao Xu.

What if Bao Xu had a better idea?

As long as he had a general direction and was not completely blind, it would not be difficult to last for another month.

At that thought, Yu Fei sorted out his thoughts and prepared to go and ask Bao Xu for guidance.

“Don’t say that I asked you to go!”

Hu Xianbin reminded him again worriedly.

At the same time, at the special training base of Suffering Travels.

Meng Chang had just finished touring the entire special training base. Under Bao Xu’s ‘passionate recommendation’, he tasted the compressed biscuits, canned food, and compressed meat pancakes.

In the end, he drank two large bottles of water but could not cleanse his mouth.

“Alright, thank you for the introduction. I basically understand the situation of this special training base.”

Meng Chang had a complicated expression.

He had long heard that Bao Xu had created a ‘Suffering Travels’ after receiving the Dream Fund. However, he had not expected to suffer so much!

After all, the people participating in this project were the most expensive in-charge of Tengda’s various departments. All of them did not have to worry about food and drinks. They had achieved something in their own fields. It was simply too miserable to be forced to participate in such a masochistic project.

Bao Xu did not give them any face at all. He was practically training them to death.

Of course, the most amazing thing was that Boss Pei was fully supportive of this. He did not seem to be worried that this would affect the daily operations of the various departments.

One had to know that the bigger a company was, the more things there would be. The person-in-charge of the departments was the backbone of the entire company. They would be in charge of handling various things and uploading various news.

Many department heads of other companies were extremely tired from working from morning to night. Yet, the person-in-charge of Tengda could take two months to suffer?

That was ridiculous.

Meng Chang’s mission this month was to publicize Suffering Travels. He had no idea how to publicize it even though he already knew some things.

Perhaps it was because after his previous thoughts were denied, the entire knowledge structure of the “Pei family publicity method” was gradually reorganizing and recovering.

“That’s all for today, then. Thank you very much.”

“When you guys go to Shennongjia later, I’ll arrange for someone to accompany you guys. We’ll shoot some materials that might be used or they might not.”

“I have to go back and think about how to publicize it. I might need your cooperation in the future, Brother Bao.”

Meng Chang was prepared to leave.

Bao Xu nodded. “No problem, we’ll definitely cooperate!”

After sending Meng Chang off, Bao Xu waited for a while at the special training base before Yu Fei arrived.

Before he came, Yu Fei had already contacted Bao Xu and briefly explained his intention.

Bao Xu did not agree directly nor did he reject it. He only said that he would talk about it and make a decision after confirming the specific situation of the game.

“Come, please take a seat.”

“There’s nothing much to host you here. There’s only mineral water. Make do with it.”

Bao Xu brought Yu Fei to the training room in the special training base and sat down. This was mainly to teach the students about outdoor survival knowledge. It was currently acting as a guest room.

Yu Fei subconsciously looked around.

Was this the special training base that Tengda was in charge of making the people-in-charge suffer?

According to Hu Xianbin and the others’ descriptions, this place was like the dungeons of the East factory. Those who did not know would think that it was a dark place. However, it seemed like the conditions were still alright.

“Brother Bao, let me briefly explain the current situation…”

Yu Fei explained Ghost General 2’s situation, including the few design points that Boss Pei had raised and his own confusion.

Of course, he did not mention Hu Xianbin. Hu Xianbin had repeatedly emphasized this before he came.

Bao Xu fell into deep thought after listening to Yu Fei’s explanation.

Yu Fei’s eyes lit up when he saw Bao Xu’s expression.

There’s a chance!

He knew that Bao Xu might be famous as a ‘Traveller’ but he was actually a gaming expert. At the same time, he was one of the people who could understand Boss Pei’s intentions the best.

When Ocean Stronghold was first developed, Huang Sibo was only the chief planner while Bao Xu was the one who interpreted Boss Pei’s thoughts and designed the game concept.

When they heard about the requirements for Ghost General 2, most of them were confused and had no clue at all. On the other hand, Bao Xu did not look surprised at all. Instead, he was seriously thinking about the feasibility.

That was enough to show that he had found the right person.

After some consideration, Bao Xu said, “I can roughly guess a rough design prototype.”

“However… I cannot make it so clear to you. That is not in line with my principles.”

Yu Fei was stunned. “Huh? Isn’t Tengda’s mission to help each other?”

As far as he knew, Bao Xu was a warm-hearted person. He had even gone to the snack market to help out.

Why did he decline this time then?

Bao Xu explained, “There’s a prerequisite for helping each other. We cannot affect the original person-in-charge’s thinking.”

“Boss Pei’s selection of project managers is very particular. The essence of certain projects can only be designed by a specific person-in-charge.”

“When I helped out with the snack market. I might have raised some of my own ideas, but Zhang Yahui was the last gate. We have a division of labor.”

“However, your situation is different. We are all working on game creativity. Our work content overlaps.”

“If my thoughts affect you too much, it would become my design and not your design. This might go against Boss Pei’s original plan.”

Yu Fei said, “But… What design can I have now? I’m completely confused.”

“Brother Bao, if you don’t help me, I don’t think this game will be produced at all…”

Bao Xu thought about it and nodded slightly. “That’s true.”

“The prototype of the game that I came up with in my head is indeed very difficult to develop. It’s not a job that you can do now.”

“However, I definitely cannot take on everything and design for you.”

“What if Boss Pei doesn’t think that way? Wouldn’t that be a mess?”

“Hmm… You should give Boss Pei a call at a time like this.”
