Chapter 991: Boss Pei’s Way Of Cultivating Talents

In the afternoon, Qiao Liang took a taxi to Fei Huang Workspace and met Huang Sibo.

“Teacher Qiao, nice to meet you!”

The two of them shook hands warmly and exchanged greetings.

Strictly speaking, Huang Sibo had only designed Ocean Stronghold as the chief designer. Qiao Liang had never made a video for Ocean Stronghold, so the two of them had not interacted much.

However, they were all very familiar with Tengda after all. Thus, they felt a sense of mutual appreciation when they met.

After exchanging a few pleasantries in the conference room, the two quickly got down to business.

Qiao Liang went straight to the point. “To be honest, the video I released recently interpreted ‘Mission and Choice’. I didn’t expect it to cause a lot of controversy.”

“I said in the video that this game was created using ‘industrialization mode’. It is very different from the previous games, but many viewers do not agree.”

“What do you think?”

Qiao Liang was rather nervous after asking this question.

He was afraid that Huang Sibo would directly say that there was no such thing. Wouldn’t that be impossible to clean up?

He had worked so hard to learn the game design theory and studied ‘Mission and Choice’. It would be too awkward if his analysis was not right.

Huang Sibo sipped his tea. “I’ve watched the video. I agree with some of the content.”

“However…”

“I dare not accept the term ‘milestone’. Even though this game had the intention of washing away the shame of domestically-produced games when it was first established, it would take many years before it could become a milestone.”

“As for the “industrialization model’, I can’t give a very definite answer. That’s because there’s actually no conclusion in the game industry regarding this concept. It’s a concept that makes sense no matter what.”

Qiao Liang was slightly disappointed.

Obviously, Huang Sibo had the same personality as Boss Pei. He was very humble and would not blindly claim credit for himself.

Humility was a virtue, but it could very well mean that Qiao Liang would return empty-handed today.

“However…”

Huang Sibo changed the topic. “I might not be able to answer your questions directly, but I can tell you a few stories that happened during the development process of this game and movie. I believe that it will inspire you.”

Qiao Liang’s eyes lit up. “Go ahead!”

Huang Sibo sorted out his thoughts and said, “I don’t know if you have noticed that the person-in-charge of Tengda Games is changing very frequently.”

“I am the designer of Ocean Stronghold. When it came to Game Designer, the chief designer was Lu Mingliang. After that, it was Li Yada, Hu Xianbin, Min Jingchao, and the others. It is rare for a designer to be in charge of two games in Tengda Games.”

“Now, I am in charge of Fei Huang Workspace, Lu Mingliang is in charge of Upwind Logistics, and even Chen Kangtuo and the others who were in the gaming department were assigned to Thriller Hostel… Every designer who had made a name for themselves could take charge of their own businesses.”

“Do you know what this means?”

Qiao Liang shook his head, confused.

Huang Sibo continued, “Boss Pei would give out different tasks every time a new game is developed.”

“Sometimes, he would only give a very broad general scope. For example, he would give a few seemingly unrelated and even outrageous requests for the chief designer to think about designing on his own. At other times, he would raise all sorts of details of the design and let the designer carry it out seriously.”

“Why is that? Do you know why?”

Qiao Liang shook his head, feeling even more confused.

Huang Sibo continued, “This time, the difficulty Boss Pei gave us could be said to be unprecedented when we were developing ‘Mission and Choice’. Thus, I gathered Director Zhu Xiaoce, Lu Mingliang, Li Yada, Hu Xianbin, Min Jingchao, Bao Xu, Lin Wan, Ye Zhizhou, Wang Xiaobin, and the other core members of Tengda Games. We worked together and finally finalized the design details of ‘Mission and Choice’.”

“Connect all of these together. What did you think of it?”

Qiao Liang frowned as his brain worked furiously.

He vaguely felt that there seemed to be a very important content hidden within, but he felt that it was a little blurry and difficult to grasp.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up.

“I understand now!

“Boss Pei is actually cultivating the talents of Tengda Corporation in his own way!”

“Tengda Games is the department that can train people the most. That’s why Boss Pei promotes a new designer with potential every time he does a new game project.”

“Once the project succeeds, Boss Pei will transfer the already trained employees to other departments to take charge. Then, he will continue to train new employees!”

“That’s why Tengda Games’ personnel changes so frequently. That’s why there’s a saying that ‘everyone from the gaming department can be in charge’!”

“As for the way Boss Pei distributes the tasks, that’s because he wants to teach based on individual talents.”

“Some people are good at designing, so Boss Pei will guide them through a few seemingly unrelated requests to stimulate their talents as much as possible. Boss Pei will give some very detailed rules to some people who are not very imaginative but have a stronger execution ability. He will let them watch and learn them well in the process of seriously implementing them.”

“The arrangements after that proved that Boss Pei is actually a guide who teaches based on his talents.”

“For example, Brother Huang, you are a very creative and comprehensive designer. That’s why Boss Pei assigned you to be in charge of Fei Huang Workspace and control Tengda Corporation’s entertainment industry.

“Lu Mingliang is a designer with strong execution skills. Boss Pei wants him to manage Upwind Logistics;”

“As for Li Yada and Bao Xu, their abilities are not particularly outstanding. However, they are experienced and reliable. That’s why he asked them to stay in Tengda Games as old employees to stabilize the situation…”

“That way, all of the employees with potential in Tengda Corporation would grow rapidly. They would be in charge of the various departments. They would also be able to develop faster and better while ensuring Boss Pei’s control over the various departments!”

“The most important thing is that when these people train sufficiently and gather together again, they will burst out with astonishing potential!”

“Take ‘Mission and Choice’ for example. Without the accumulation of Fei Huang Workspace and the success of ‘Tomorrow is Beautiful’, it would be impossible to make a name for himself in both film and games!”

“I was a little puzzled before. ‘Mission and Choice’ did not seem to be Boss Pei’s style. That was because the games that Boss Pei personally designed, such as Game Designer, Repent and be Saved, Struggle, and so on, all had a very strong personal color. They had a kind of imagination that broke through the sky.”

“On the other hand, ‘Mission and Choice’ lacks this unconstrained imagination, but it has an additional feeling of stability.”

“So this game is the result of all of you working together under Boss Pei’s guidance!”

“In other words… Using ‘industrialization mode’ to describe ‘Mission and Choice’ is not particularly rigorous.”

“Strictly speaking, Tengda’s’ industrialization model ‘was not formed naturally. Instead, Boss Pei intentionally displayed Tengda Corporation’s specialties by nurturing the core employees and giving them pointers. That allowed Tengda Corporation to enter this ‘industrialization model’ in advance!”

“It looks like I was blowing in the right direction. I just didn’t hit the nail on the head!”

Huang Sibo sipped his tea and smiled without saying a word.

He thought so too.

Anyone who had been in charge of Tengda Games would understand how important Boss Pei’s guidance would be to the success of a game!

If not for Boss Pei, Huang Sibo, Lu Mingliang, and the others would probably still be working as executives and odd-job workers at some lousy game company. How could they have achieved such results?

Most of the time, one’s ability was only one aspect, but more importantly, one had to obtain a platform.

It was just like someone asking on the internet why most of the famous generals, strategists, and founders of the Han Dynasty were from the same hometown as Liu Bang? Why were there so many geniuses in such a small city?

In fact, it was because this group of people had been advancing and growing together during the process of conquering the world. Their talents could be displayed with this platform and resources.

It was the same for Tengda Corporation.

The heads of the various departments were all extremely smart. Could they be the best in the industry? That might not be the case.

Without Tengda Corporation’s platform and Boss Pei’s guidance, they would not have achieved what they had today.

Thus, even though most of the content of Mission and Choice was finalized by Huang Sibo and the others, Boss Pei was obviously the biggest contributor behind the scenes.

That was because Boss Pei had provided this platform, confirmed Tengda Corporation’s tone, trained these people, and set an excellent example for them. That was why Mission and Choice was born!

However, he could not say it out loud because Boss Pei had said to be honest.

All of these things that he was thinking about were more or less made up by himself. He could not say it directly even though it was mostly the truth.

Thus, Huang Sibo explained everything that had happened during the production of ‘Mission and Choice’. He understood everything, but he could not explain much.

In any case, there should be no problem with Teacher Qiao’s ability to understand.

Qiao Liang did not disappoint him. He understood his intentions immediately!

“I understand! Thank you very much! Now, I can say that Tengda Corporation is not only trying to ‘industrialize’, but it was also deliberately and deliberately directed by Boss Pei. Moreover, it received excellent results!”Qiao Liang said happily.

“I’ll go back and talk to those people now! Such a detailed case would definitely make them speechless!”
