Chapter 158 Fortress at Sea

Seeing President Pei's reply, Huang Sibo was overjoyed.

As expected, his work had been recognized by President Pei!

This meant that the direction he and Bao Xu had finally settled on was exactly what President Pei had originally envisioned! President Pei was truly far-sighted!

Pei Qian's image grew even taller in Huang Sibo's eyes.

"President Pei, there's another question, and that's the name of the game."

"Bao Xu wants to call it *Fortress at Sea*. I think the name is a bit strange and a bit corny, but I'm not good at naming things, and I can't think of any good names either... Why don't you decide the name of the game, President Pei?"

*Fortress at Sea*?

Why did that name sound so familiar?

Pei Qian suddenly realized, oh, right, it was similar to the name of a flop movie from before he transmigrated!

Pei Qian immediately made a decision: "*Fortress at Sea* is great, let's go with that!"

Huang Sibo: "Uh, President Pei, wouldn't you like to reconsider? We're not in a hurry to decide on a name yet, there's still time."

Pei Qian replied: "No, it's called *Fortress at Sea*! I like this name!"

"Okay, President Pei, then I'll continue writing the design document." Huang Sibo went offline.

Pei Qian was very happy.

Wasn't the name *Fortress at Sea* a good name? It was a great name!

It sounded auspicious!

It foreshadowed losing money!

Some people might not know what three hundred million investment and one hundred million box office meant. Usually, we would call it a super, unparalleled, blood-soaked loss!

Since that movie could lose so much money, then this game with a similar name should lose a few million without a problem, right?

Yes, it was simply a perfect game name!

Pei Qian was very satisfied with the name.

...

In the evening, Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd.

The members of the design team were all busy.

Huang Sibo and Bao Xu had been working overtime these past few days in order to rush out the design document as soon as possible so that the game could officially enter the development stage.

And the other members of the design team had also been assigned work.

After writing the general outline, each function had to be further broken down, down to every detail. This work was done by the other members of the design team, and then Huang Sibo would oversee it.

Including the demand for art resources such as models and guns in the game, all of this had to be organized.

There was a lot to do.

However, Huang Sibo did not ask the others to work overtime. Instead, they took the initiative to stay behind, and Huang Sibo couldn't persuade them to leave!

Huang Sibo had no choice but to let them do as they pleased.

These people's mentality was similar to Huang Sibo's.

They were originally the most basic employees of some game companies, doing repetitive labor with no technical content, and they were constantly being exploited.

But after coming to Tengda, everything was different.

They were each responsible for a function and carried out independent design;

The work atmosphere here was relaxed, the boss was enlightened, the colleagues were friendly, and everyone was striving for the same goal;

Most importantly, the games they were making were not inferior cash-grabbing reskins, but had innovative gameplay!

All of these factors made them very interested in their work, and they were naturally very willing to stay and work overtime.

Huang Sibo had no choice but to let them go.

Anyway, overtime was only for this week. When the design document was completed next week, the workload would decrease, and it should be fine.

Bao Xu had been constantly playing various FPS games these past few days, especially some foreign masterpieces.

It was not an easy task to make the story of *Fortress at Sea* a good one.

Merely through a little girl who couldn't speak, the player would be immersed into the story and constantly promote the player's emotional changes. This required very meticulous design.

"Brother Huang, there's a good segment of the story, I recorded it and sent it to you, see if you can use it." Bao Xu said.

"Okay, Brother Bao, I received it."

Huang Sibo clicked on the video sent by Bao Xu and viewed the first-person perspective of the game in full screen.

He and Bao Xu had both put a lot of effort into the story. After all, the story was one of the highlights of this game, and it had to be done well.

The video sent by Bao Xu was indeed very good. After all, it was produced by a foreign company, and the story was fascinating. Huang Sibo watched it with rapt attention.

He didn't notice a long face flashing past the door.

...

...

"Knock knock knock."

The sound of knocking on the door came from outside Pei Qian's rented house.

"Oh? It's so late."

Pei Qian looked at the time, it was already about 8 o'clock in the evening.

Only Assistant Xin and Ma Yang knew about this place. Assistant Xin shouldn't bother him at this time, so it could only be Ma Yang.

What was Ma Yang doing here?

Pei Qian opened the door and saw Ma Yang's long face as expected.

"Brother Qian, I found something. Huang Sibo and the others are secretly working overtime! Using the company's computers!" Ma Yang seemed to have discovered some shocking secret.

Pei Qian couldn't help but frown.

Ma Yang emphasized "using the company's computers," while Pei Qian cared about "working overtime."

What did working overtime mean?

What was wrong with this Huang Sibo, he couldn't change his bad habits!

Didn't I drive people out every day last week? I told you not to work overtime, why are you still working overtime!

He actually treated President Pei's words like the wind? It was outrageous!

"What is Huang Sibo doing working overtime? Writing documents? Or doing design?" Pei Qian was very unhappy.

"Uh..." Ma Yang recalled what he had seen. "Playing games."

Pei Qian was stunned.

Playing games?

Pei Qian's face looked a little better.

He knew that Bao Xu would stay at the company to play games every day after work. This was the special privilege he had given to Bao Xu.

Why did Huang Sibo also start playing games after work? Was he influenced by Bao Xu?

Pei Qian only didn't allow employees to work overtime at the company. If it was playing games, then there was no problem.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian's face looked a little better. "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong, Huang Sibo was playing games?"

Ma Yang nodded: "Yes, that's why I came to report to you! Wouldn't you say that they are wasting company resources? Tomorrow, do you want to say something to them?"

"Hehe, no need."

Pei Qian was relieved.

Since they were playing games instead of working overtime, then there was no problem at all.

It could eat more snacks, use more electricity, and help him lose more system funds.

How great!

Moreover... it seemed like he had one more legitimate reason to waste system funds?

Pei Qian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a great idea.

"Old Ma, we are a game company. Employees playing games is also for learning, for reference, for absorbing the advanced experience of excellent foreign games. It's also part of the job, understand?" Pei Qian said earnestly.

Ma Yang seemed to understand: "Oh... so you mean, this matter won't be investigated?"

"Not investigate? No, no, no, of course not!" Pei Qian said righteously, "The employees are working overtime for the company, overdrawing their health. How can we just let it go like that? We Tengda is a conscientious company that cares about its employees!"

"The state stipulates that employees must be paid overtime, and we Tengda must respond to the national policy! The overtime pay for working days is 1.5 times the hourly wage, and the overtime pay for weekends is 2 times the hourly wage. Not a penny less!"

"Old Ma, I'm giving you a very important task. You help me pay attention to how long they work overtime every day. I'm going to pay them overtime by the hour, not a penny less!"

Ma Yang nodded: "Okay, okay, I understand! Leave this to me!"

After sending Ma Yang away, Pei Qian couldn't help but want to laugh three times.

Why did he forget about overtime pay before?

With this overtime pay added on, wouldn't he be able to easily lose more system funds in a month?

I'm simply a genius!
