Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1309 - Temporarily Take Out Zhang Yuan!



Chapter 1309: Temporarily Take Out Zhang Yuan!

Chen Lei was even more interested now. He asked, “Brother Zhang, tell me. I’m very curious!”

“You’re saying that Boss Pei did not travel on a whim, but with a deeper purpose?”

Zhang Yuan nodded. “Yes!”

“Wu Bin from the HR department also saw someone distributing a booklet on the Tengda Spirit test during the recruitment drive. Thus, he went to look for Boss Pei. In the end, he was taught a lesson by Boss Pei.”

“That was why he wanted to redo the Tengda spirit, especially to explore the relationship between work and entertainment.”

“His theory is a little profound. There are some views like ‘labor is mutated’. I don’t remember them nor do I understand them completely. However, after listening to Wu Bin’s explanation, I remember a simple and common explanation.”

“Before this, we all thought that work and entertainment are two distinct things. Work should be tiring, tiring, and painful. Working hard is for better entertainment. Entertainment is the diversion and support of work.”

“However, it is obviously wrong in Boss Pei’s eyes.”

“Work and entertainment should be one and the same. Work should be happy, and entertainment can be work itself!”

“Boss Pei’s goal is to change the mutated state of labor, return it to its original form, so that work is no longer a painful and exhausting thing, but full of fun.”

“Wu Bin said that both of these views look similar and encourage entertainment, but there is a fundamental difference in their thinking.”

Chen Lei was stunned. “Good lord, I always thought that playing games at work was ridiculous enough. Now, playing games at work is so philosophical?”

“Your HR department is also filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons.”

“Is Boss Pei’s thinking really that deep? Hmm… that’s right. I wouldn’t believe it if it was someone else, but it would be very reliable if it was Boss Pei.”

“But what has this got to do with you avoiding trouble?”

Zhang Yuan explained, “I was very inspired after hearing Wu Bin’s theoretical research.”

“I’ve been looking for similarities between the people in charge of the first batch of suffering trips. I wanted to develop a common rule and see what kind of people would be sent to suffer by Boss Pei.”

“In the end, after researching for a long time, I found that they were all in charge of important departments and had achieved good results. I did not find anything else in common.”

“I’m a little confused. Logically speaking, the other departments are making a lot of money. Why did Boss Pei choose them first?”

“After that, Wu Bin said that I understood. It was because the group of them divided work and entertainment the most widely. It was most inconsistent with Boss Pei’s philosophy!”

“Look, Huang Sibo from Fei Huang Workspace, Hu Xianbin from the gaming department, Xiao Peng from Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Rui Yuchen from Fish-Catching Take-Out, Ye Zhizhou from Shang Yang Games, Shen Renjie from the Nag artificial intelligence laboratory, Ma Yiqun from Zhongdian Chinese Network…”

“These people have one thing in common: they are all very responsible for their own work. All of them are focused on their own work and rarely entertain themselves. Their work is done very strictly and only know how to earn money. They rarely do any work.”

“This is obviously not in line with Boss Pei’s expectations for them!”

“Look at the person-in-charge who was not selected.”

“At Thriller Hostel, Chen Kangtuo would visit the haunted house every now and then.

“As for Upwind Logistics, Lu Mingliang might have completed his job well, but he was free and easy. He never thought about earning money. It was only recently that he decided to expand the market and accept delivery packages.”

“At the snack market, Zhang Yahui is managing the snack market while selling cold noodles personally. He’s enjoying it;”

“Me too. I used to watch competitions on the spot or play with DGE’s players with Boss Ma.”

“The difference is very obvious!”

“The ones selected by Boss Pei are all focused on work. There are few entertainment activities, even none. There is a clear distinction between work and entertainment. The ones not selected are all happy work, combining work and entertainment well and are full of creativity!”

“Therefore, Boss Pei’s torturous trip obviously had a deeper meaning.”

“He’s obviously urging the people in charge to change their incorrect working attitude as soon as possible and not to continue being so serious. Instead, he wants labor to return to its original state of fun. He wants to enjoy more fun at work so that he can better create value!”

Chen Lei looked like he had just heard a fairytale.

Good lord, this theory sounded ridiculous at first glance!

Boss Pei actually complained that the people in charge were too serious about their work?

However, after listening to Zhang Yuan’s analysis, especially when compared to the person-in-charge who went on a torturous trip and the person-in-charge who did not go on a torturous trip, it was quite convincing!

Chen Lei was silent for a moment, and then said, “In other words, Boss Pei thinks that while these people in charge seem to be working hard on the surface, it is beneficial to the company. However, in reality, their rigid working mindset would limit their upper limits and suppress their inspiration during work. Therefore, they need to be corrected?”

Zhang Yuan nodded. “I think that’s the only logical explanation.”

“Therefore, I have to make more changes in order to not be on the list for the next suffering trip.”

“After all, the first batch of people who need correction have already returned from suffering. The next batch would have relatively smaller problems but still need correction.”

“It’s very likely that I will still be on the second list because I have obviously not reached the working state that Boss Pei wants me to be in.”

“Therefore, I have to make use of this critical juncture of GOG’s competition to show Boss Pei my changes. That way, I can avoid suffering!”

Chen Lei completely believed him and could not help but nod.

“It’s not easy being the person-in-charge of Tengda. Ordinarily, those with bad brains would not be able to do it.”

“Ordinary people would not understand the depth of Boss Pei’s thinking.”

Zhang Yuan said, “That’s why we still have to rely on the heads of the various departments to jointly interpret it! A person’s strength is limited after all.”

“If not for Wu Bin’s reminder, I would never have thought that Boss Pei would have such an idea.”

“Sigh, let’s not talk about it. The warm-up competition is almost over. We’re preparing to go on stage.”

“Let’s sing another song together. Then, I’ll give the audience a prize. We should have enough of our presence today. We’ll continue tomorrow before the competition starts.”

Zhang Yuan stood up, adjusted his costume, and prepared to go on stage again.

At that moment, Pei Qian was eating his chips at home while watching the competition on the big television.

Pei Qian could not help but be stunned when he saw Zhang Yuan go on stage.

“What is Zhang Yuan doing? Is he letting himself go?”

“He’s tired with ordinary work. Thus, in order to relive his time as a resident singer, Boss Zhang decided to… become an idol?”

“However, such behavior is still worth advocating and encouraging!”

Pei Qian could not help but laugh as he looked at the bullet screen comments in the live-stream that said ‘Boss Zhang sang very well’ and ‘suggested that Boss Zhang debut on the spot’.

The people in charge should learn from Zhang Yuan!

Don’t just think about earning money, earning money, and earning money all day long. It would be good to do more work and entertain the masses within the scope of your job, right?

It was worth encouraging him to spend his time on these things and take up company resources to complete his hobbies.

In any case, you can do anything. Don’t keep thinking about earning money for me. That would be no problem.

“It looks like transferring Zhang Yuan from Fish-Catching Internet Cafe to DGE Club was the right choice.”

“If he had stayed in Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, he would probably be suffering in Shennongjia like Xiao Peng.”

“Now, he no longer has the dream of Fish-Catching Internet Cafe and ROF Computer-Installation. He has become a slacker. The only fun thing left is to sing. He can only sing while GOG is competing.”

“Yes, not bad, not bad. It looks like I can remove him from the next list temporarily and replace him with someone else.”

Pei Qian calculated that the first event of the torturous trip was almost over. The people in charge would be back soon and return to work.

After all, happiness was short.

However, he could then start to arrange for the second batch of people in charge. He could catch all the people who had slipped through the net previously, such as the second-in-command of the various departments. He could also catch all the people who had been secretly stabbing their backs.

Zhang Yuan was originally on this list.

After all, DGE Club had been selling players to make money. It might not make much money but it was extremely insulting.

It would have been fine if DGE had spent a lot of money and resources to nurture players. However, the current situation was that many players were selling at a high price because they were very talented. They were only being gold-plated in DGE Club!

The value of these players skyrocketed just by plating this layer of gold.

Before entering DGE Club, as a trainee, his annual salary was only a few hundred thousand yuan. After leaving DGE Club, he would be bought over by other clubs. That would increase his salary by ten times.

Coupled with DGE Club’s uniforms and peripherals, the money earned made Pei Qian want to vomit blood.

As for the E-Sports Department, the various competitions were doing very well. Zhang Yuan was obviously part of the blame.

Therefore, no matter what, he could not let him go on the next torturous trip.

However, looking at the situation today, seeing how Zhang Yuan was letting himself loose on stage and entertaining the audience, Pei Qian felt that his illness was not that serious and could still be delayed.

Perhaps it was not all Zhang Yuan’s fault that DGE Club and the E-Sports Department had become like this?

These two departments started off very well after all.

Zhang Yuan’s work attitude was worth observing.

As long as he continued to maintain his position as the person-in-charge and pursued his dream of becoming a singer, he should keep him as the person-in-charge. That was because even if he were to make money for the department, it would definitely be less than the newcomers promoted.

Pei Qian did not dare to try promoting newbies anymore. Every time he promoted newbies, they would earn more money than the old.

It was just as well that he could dig Zhang Yuan out from the list and replace him with someone who needed to suffer more.

Pei Qian made up his mind and decided to finalize the list on Monday. If the slots were allowed, Teacher Qiao and Ruan Guangjian’s priority could be brought forward.

Of course, the prerequisite was that he had to think of a good excuse to bluff them into participating willingly.
