Losing Money to Be a Tycoon
chapter-750

As Tengda Corporation expanded, Boss Pei’s whereabouts became increasingly uncertain. There were fewer and fewer opportunities to meet him.

Apart from the fact that Boss Pei would visit the company every Monday, they would only be able to meet him face-to-face when the project was almost completed.

To the heads of the various departments, this was actually quite painful.

Boss Pei was a genius in business. It would be very helpful for the development of the department and for the improvement of one’s abilities if they could communicate more with Boss Pei and listen to more of his words.

Thus, every time Boss Pei spoke, they had to take it seriously and try to understand the deeper meaning behind it!

Pei Qian looked around at the people in charge, smiled, and said, “Can anyone accurately and summarize what the Tengda spirit is? The best would win a week of paid leave for the entire department.”

A week of paid leave for the entire department as a reward should be generous enough, right?

Even if you don’t think for yourselves, you should think for your own employees, right?

Pei Qian’s plan was simple and crude.

Since the Tengda spirit had been misinterpreted, it must have been done from the top of the pyramid. The person-in-charge of these departments had the greatest responsibility. The culprit must have been hidden among these people!

After all, the in-charge of Tengda’s various departments were best at imaginations.

He would definitely want to get rid of all of them, but if he got rid of one every now and then, he would definitely miss out on some.

Now that they were all gathered together, the person who with the most detailed, most comprehensive, and most deviated understanding from the Tengda spirit was definitely the culprit!

What’s more, Pei Qian felt that the culprit would definitely not let go of this opportunity to claim credit. If he were to add fuel to the fire with the enticing conditions of a paid leave, he would definitely be able to find more than one mole!

Who would take the bait now that the hook was out, ?

Pei Qian’s smile widened.

The department heads looked at each other, but no one spoke.

A few people subconsciously looked at Hao Yun, but she also shook her head slightly. Thus, everyone remained silent.

The people in charge had different considerations, but there were three main reasons.

First, most department heads felt that they were not worthy.

Many people knew that Wu Bin had summarized the Tengda spirit. Everyone else had benefited from it.

It was not appropriate to jump out at this time to take Wu Bin’s credit!

Everyone was reputable and had a bottom line. If they jumped out now, they would not be able to face the HR department in the future.

That was why many department heads looked at Hao Yun. Only the HR department had the right to accept the reward.

However, Hao Yun also felt a little embarrassed. That was because the credit belonged to Wu Bin. How could she claim it? If she emphasized that it was Wu Bin’s credit, that would not be in line with Wu Bin’s intentions.

That was because Wu Bin had repeatedly emphasized that his interpretation of the Tengda spirit was one-sided and incomplete. The Tengda spirit mainly relied on enlightenment. He did not want to take credit for it. Otherwise, he would not have remained so low-profile until now.

Hao Yun knew that Wu Bin did not want to stand out. It would be even more difficult for her and the other department heads to covet Wu Bin’s credit. Thus, everyone fell silent.

Second, a week of paid leave was not that tempting.

Every department had a development plan. It might affect the work plan no matter whether the entire department took a paid leave or the person-in-charge took a paid leave for a week.

What’s more, Tengda did not encourage overtime work. They had more than enough time to rest at night and on weekends. They would not feel at ease if they took a paid week off. It was better not to.

In the end, no one dared to show off in front of Boss Pei. What’s more, the Tengda spirit was constantly changing.

Wu Bin had already analyzed the reason why Boss Pei did not spread the Tengda spirit by himself. He had instead used the Tengda spirit test to let all his employees understand it by themselves so that they would not be bound by rules and regulations.

If that was the case, wouldn’t it be awkward to show off his shallow understanding in front of Boss Pei?

No one wanted to embarrass themselves in front of the others.

Thus, after Boss Pei finished asking, none of the department heads spoke. They just stared at each other and then turned to look at Boss Pei.

Pei Qian was stunned.

What’s going on?

No one is taking the bait?

Are all of them so cautious?

Or could it be that all of you have already mastered telepathy?

Pei Qian frowned and said, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Huang Sibo cleared his throat. “Boss Pei, our understanding of the Tengda spirit is too superficial and one-sided. We shouldn’t embarrass ourselves.”

Lin Wan nodded as well. “Yes, this problem is too complicated. I don’t know where to start.”

Ma Yiqun had an unfathomable expression on his face as he said, “It can only be understood but not explained in words. We can’t go into details, it would be wrong once it is explained.”

Xiao Peng: “Our understanding of the Tengda spirit is not even a ten-thousandth of the true Tengda spirit. We can’t, we can’t.”

Only Ma Yang raised his long face, which was buried deep in his plate, and looked at everyone blankly. He had no idea what they were talking about.

He wanted to say something, but he had no idea where to start.

Pei Qian could not help but be flabbergasted.

I’m f*cking asking you to tell me about the Tengda spirit, not to discuss Zen!

Instead, I’m actually hearing things like ‘We can’t go into details, it would be wrong once it is explained”?

These people gave Pei Qian the impression that they were a group of old monks. They spoke in such a confusing manner that Pei Qian could not ask them even if he wanted to.

Pei Qian was a little helpless. “It doesn’t matter. Everyone can speak freely no matter whether it’s right or wrong.”

The people in charge looked at each other but remained indifferent.

Huang Sibo, Lin Wan, and the other veteran employees looked especially determined.

A few of the more experienced people in charge wanted to say something, but when they saw Huang Sibo, Lin Wan, and the others’ expressions, they immediately realized what was going on and shut their mouths obediently.

This looked like Boss Pei’s test!

Those who spoke now were those who did not have a deep understanding of Boss Pei’s intentions or the Tengda spirit.

The core of the Tengda spirit was to figure it out on your own and not talk nonsense. Wouldn’t it be going against the Tengda spirit if you were to talk about your understanding of the Tengda spirit in front of Boss Pei?

Therefore, keeping silent was the right answer!

If Pei Qian had asked the question alone, he might have gotten something. Everyone had different thoughts after all.

However, all the people-in-charge were present now. Silence was contagious. Everyone observed the reactions of others, especially Lin Wan, Huang Sibo, and the other old employees. They all realized that silence was the right answer. That was why they responded with silence!

Pei Qian looked confused, his head filled with question marks.

???

What was happening?

He could not dig out a single word from these people in charge?

Pei Qian had wanted to name a few people so that they would say something. However, on second thought, it was useless!

These people-in-charge would definitely be able to say something, but that would not be of any help in finding out who the mastermind was. What’s more, seeing how the people-in-charge were so resistant, forcing them to say something would only have a greater negative effect.

Pei Qian remained silent for a moment and sighed.

Alright, I’ll have to carry out Plan B then.

Pei Qian had actually expected this possibility, so he had made two preparations in advance. Tang Yishu would be investigating in secret, and the possibility of finding the mastermind still existed.

On top of that, Pei Qian also intended to reverse the situation of the Tengda spirit from a higher dimension!

At that thought, Pei Qian cleared his throat. “Since no one wants to talk about it, forget it. However, I want to emphasize something to everyone. Please carry it out seriously.”

“I don’t care if the various departments publicize the Tengda spirit directly or indirectly. I don’t care what this Tengda spirit that everyone has been advocating is exactly. I hope that everyone can stop doing this immediately.”

“In other words, there is no need for Tengda Corporation to engage in spiritual building, understand?”

“Especially you, the in-charge of the various departments. You have to be responsible for the work of this department. No matter what the other departments do, you have to remember what I said.”

“Have you carved it to your heart?”

The people in charge looked at each other in confusion.

What was Boss Pei doing?

Why did he emphasize that Tengda Corporation should not undergo any spiritual building? Didn’t that mean that the Tengda spirit could not continue to flourish?

Other companies attached great importance to the cultural building of their businesses. They might be fake slogans but they still made their employees memorize them.

On the other hand, Tengda had such a good Tengda spirit, but Boss Pei did not allow everyone to learn and spread it?

Erm…

All the people in charge were confused. They even felt that Boss Pei’s actions were contradictory.

Did Boss Pei really value the Tengda spirit? If he did not, why did he set the ‘Tengda Spirit compatibility test’ in the recruitment process? If he did, why did he strictly prohibit publicity and dissemination?

Pei Qian looked at everyone’s expressions and immediately knew that they were imagining something amazing again. He quickly said, “You don’t have to understand or understand why. Just execute it resolutely.”

The people in charge nodded and said in unison, “Yes, Boss Pei!”

…

…

November 21st, Monday…

As usual, Pei Qian came to the office to see if there was anything he needed to do.

Not long after he sat down, someone knocked on the door.

Pei Qian looked up as Lin Wan pushed the door open and entered.

“What’s the matter?”

Pei Qian was a little surprised since he had been to Shang Yang Games more often recently. At the moment, Shang Yang Games was in charge of two tasks. Ye Zhizhou and the others were in charge of the operations of GOG’s international server while Wang Xiaobin was developing Tengda Games’ downloadable content.

Logically speaking, there should not be anything that required special consultation for these two projects.

Lin Wan said, “Boss Pei, I’m here to report because IOI has made a new move.”

Pei Qian: “Oh? Alright, tell me then.”
