Chapter 1555 I Can’t Change This Thesis!

The thesis was not long.

Handong University only required 8,000 words for undergraduate graduation thesis. That was relatively rare in university.

Even if Pei Qian wrote high and exceeded the word count, it was not even 10,000 words.

Zhang Wei finished reading it in less than half an hour.

Zhang Wei’s mentality had undergone a drastic change after reading the entire thesis. “This article is from a strategically advantageous position. The structure is too big!”

“Could it be that Pei Qian’s previous thesis in class was only hiding itself? Or did he only take a little time to write it casually without showing his true strength?”

“Yes, that’s very possible!”

“After all, Tengda Corporation has spanned across many fields and has made outstanding contributions in the cultural field. If Pei Qian was really an ordinary student, would he be able to make so many universally appreciated movie games and novels?”

“He’s not trying to cozy up to others. Tengda has been working from a small company. He’s in charge of these projects.”

“It looks like Pei Qian wrote this graduation thesis seriously, showing his true level.”

“What’s more, Tengda’s real case was used here. This should be a summary of Pei Qian’s own creation theory, right?”

“The only pity is that there is not much content in the reference literature.”

“What’s more… What does the last sentence mean?”

Zhang Wei was filled with emotion.

When he first saw the title, Zhang Wei felt that the thesis was huge and empty. It might be a completely failed work.

However, after reading it, especially the abstract and the main body of the thesis, Zhang Wei immediately changed his opinion!

This article could be roughly divided into three parts: First, he analyzed the difficulties faced by literary works in the online age. Then, he stood in this predicament and proposed the necessary factors for the transmission and creation of popular literary works in the online age. Finally, he proposed the mission of popular literary works in the online age and supplemented it according to Tengda’s specific creative cases.

It might be small but it had everything!

What’s more, there was no nonsense in the entire thesis. It was all very dry content without any dilution.

It could even be said that if he were to add some content to this thesis as the framework and expand it with some literature, it would be enough to expand into a master’s or even doctoral graduation thesis.

If they were bolder, they could even use it as a higher-level research project!

This situation was beyond Zhang Wei’s expectations.

The characteristics of this thesis could be summarized in the following aspects.

First, the professional knowledge it cited was quite basic. However, it was precisely because they were all basic knowledge that there was no controversy and was very solid. Second, the theory raised in the text had a strong sense of age and foresight. In other words, it directly analyzed some characteristics of current popular artistic works. It was hard to say if it was right or not because it was too new.

It seemed like it was not directly related to the current theoretical research. However, it made sense to say that it was not right.

What’s more, humanities and sciences were different. If science was right, it was right. If it was wrong, it was wrong. There was basically no ambiguous space. The truth was unique.

However, in the humanities course, it was important for hundreds of flowers to bloom and hundreds of schools to compete. Everyone had their own reasons. As long as they could say something and verify with reality, it could be said to be not wrong.

Third, this thesis combined a large number of examples in Tengda’s reality, such as some successful games and movie scripts. These content itself was filled with a large amount of text information. These text information could also be regarded as a performance form of artistic works.

If these works succeeded in reality, then their theories would naturally become very reliable.

Zhang Wei could not help but feel confused.

“I can’t seem to change this thesis!”

“It’s completely beyond my capabilities.”

“Pei Qian is not playing by the book. How did he write such an undergraduate thesis?”

“The last sentence is even more ridiculous.”

“The theoretical knowledge used for reference in the text is some relatively shallow knowledge. It took a short time to complete and was not well-prepared, so it was not directly cited in the thesis. If there is anything wrong, please forgive me. If there is a fallacy, please be magnanimous.” “It looks very humble, but combined with the content of the thesis itself, it gives people a very arrogant feeling…”

The more Zhang Wei thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss.

The citing in the text was indeed some relatively superficial knowledge, but the key was what topic to study with this knowledge?

If it was a simple topic, it meant that the author’s academic theory level was very low.

He could only study these basic theoretical questions because he did not have anything in his stomach.

However, what if he researched very advanced, trendy, and huge questions and made a name for himself?

That meant that the author had used some very basic and solid knowledge to prove a new topic without any doubt.

That would not make people feel simple. Instead, it would make people feel that their foundation was solid and that they would not doubt it. The Great Dao was simple, but the end would be the same!

As for Pei Qian’s final statement, he said that he had written for a short period of time and was not well-prepared. He did not directly quote it in the text… This was indeed because Pei Qian was busy with work and did not have time to complete it. It was understandable.

In other words, Pei Qian had not even had the time to list the sources of various basic knowledge in detail. Yet, he had successfully completed the entire framework and written a very outstanding thesis. Didn’t that mean that Pei Qian’s academic foundation was actually very high?

The structure was in his heart!

As for the last paragraph, it seemed to mean: I think there is nothing wrong with the thesis I wrote. If you think you are very impressive, please find the mistake. I don’t mind arguing with you and arguing with you. We can discuss

it.

Zhang Wei frowned and muttered to himself, “This Pei Qian’s academic level is obviously higher than mine!”

This academic level was not referring to the ability to search for reference materials in the literature, but the ability to study problems and solve problems.

Pei Qian had already applied this knowledge to his daily work and created a literary work that the people loved. He was a huge success.

This thesis summarized his experience and wrote it very clearly! How was Zhang Wei going to change it?

He did not dare to change it randomly because he might be completely wrong after changing

it.

The only thing he could do was to help Pei Qian quote all the content of the reference materials and label them so that the format of the entire thesis met the requirements.

However, was there any point?

They were all very basic knowledge. Was there a need to go this way? Zhang Wei could not make up his mind. Thus, he found a few professional young lecturers and sent the thesis to them to let them take a look.

Soon, these young lecturers replied.

“I’ve never seen such an undergraduate thesis. It’s not easy to change!”

“There are some theories that I don’t particularly agree with, and the thesis itself is not very mature, but there are successful cases as reference after all. I don’t think it’s appropriate to act rashly. How about this? I’ll study it for a few days and reply you after I figure it out.” “I think this thesis has a lot of academic attainments. This is exactly what current university students are lacking. Just maintain its original style. Don’t change it!”

“There’s no way to change this thesis. I might only be able to change the sentences of a portion of the sentence, and some format rules and reference documents. However, these changes are really boring.”

Zhang Wei was speechless seeing these replies.

He realized that these young lecturers had a similar attitude as him. They could not do anything about this thesis!

That was because the thesis was in a very polarized state: the knowledge it cited was too basic. There was nothing much to say, but the topic it researched was too high and huge.

Zhang Wei was a little helpless. After some thought, he said, “Why don’t I hand this thesis to Prof Kong to decide?”

“A student of this level can only be brought by Prof Kong.”

Zhang Wei could actually change some details and add all the citing knowledge. However, he felt that the citing was too basic at the level of this thesis. It did not matter if he added it or not.

He would first take a look at Prof Kong to confirm if he needed to make further changes.

At the same time, Pei Qian had just arrived at his office.

There was a detailed report on Finger Games from Eric on the table.

That was because Finger Games was far away on the other side of the ocean. It was bad at times, so Eric could not give Pei Qian work reports often. In addition, Pei Qian had been in seclusion recently. There was no chance.

Thus, Eric made a detailed report of his work in Finger Games and handed it over. He would read it when Boss Pei had the time.

Pei Qian was also very concerned about Finger Games’ situation. Thus, he sat down in his chair and flipped open the report.

Ever since Eric took over Finger Games, there had been palace fights.

First, Eric followed Pei Qian’s instructions and made a complete transformation of Finger Games.

The upper echelons of Finger Games who were in charge of management and operations previously had basically tried their best to dissuade them. Only some designers and the upper echelons who were born as original artists were left. They brought the remaining designers to reorganize the various departments and were especially in charge of the development of the new hero and the cooperation with GOG project team.

Of course, many mid and low-level employees had also resigned. Pei Qian had always had a free attitude towards these people. He would definitely not stop them. All in all, Eric had followed Pei Qian’s instructions and completely merged the two companies!

The only flaw was that a small portion of the shares was in the hands of the original upper echelons. They could fire people but they could not snatch the shares back.

Pei Qian had thought that they would not be able to wait to sell their shares and run away once he made such an unreliable decision.

After all, if he did not sell the shares now, they would only become less and less valuable in the future. Would he be able to depreciate them?

However, at the beginning, the decline in Finger Games’ shares was not obvious. These higher-ups did not sell their shares.

There were even some discussions online that said that Tengda wanted to use the shell to enter the market and indirectly absorb American shares through Finger Games.

There were also people who were quite optimistic about Finger Games’ future. After all, after the two companies merged, they had formed a de facto monopoly over the MOBA game market. Since Finger Games was highly controlled by Tengda, wouldn’t Finger Games also have a share of the money that Tengda earned?

Thus, Pei Qian gave Eric another trick some time ago for this situation.

Be more ruthless!
