Chapter 919: Meng Chang’s Basic Salary of 3,000 Yuan

At the same time, Pei Qian was flipping through the comments under the promotional video ‘Coming Out Of The Cocoon Without Becoming A Butterfly’ in his office. He was in a daze.

What the f*ck was going on!

Meng Chang, Meng Chang, I asked you to reverse advertise the E-Sports industry and AOE the GPL league at the same time to reduce its popularity. What was this result?

Pei Qian was so angry that he wanted to die. This Meng Chang dug into him time and again!

Meng Chang had already come up with three publicity plans since he joined Tengda Corporation last month: the first was publicity for Tengda’s physical industries, the second was publicity film for Bunny Tail Live-Stream, and the third was publicity film for the E-Sports industry.

In the end, the effects of these proposals were better and better!

Especially the promotional video, “Coming Out Of The Cocoon Without Becoming A Butterfly”. Not only did it completely crush the ICL’s newly released promotional video, but it also triggered widespread discussion among audiences. It made the various benefits of the GPL more widely known, and the GPL’s attention increased!

Pei Qian could imagine Eric and Zhao Xuming grinding their teeth in anger.

However, Pei Qian felt wronged. He really didn’t do it! Friendly forces, they accidentally harmed friendly forces!

If Pei Qian had not signed the agreement with Meng Chang and knew everything about Meng Chang, he would have thought that Meng Chang was a spy who had schemed to infiltrate Tengda’s internal department. He was here to mess with his mentality.

It would have been fine if it had only happened once or twice, but it would have been too much to say that it was an accident if all three publicity events had been successful!

Pei Qian wished he could roll up his sleeves and do it himself. In his opinion, he could have done a few publicity plans with his feet and things would not have turned out this way!

However, on further thought, Pei Qian felt that he was too confident.

It wasn’t like he had never done it before. The results weren’t any better than Meng Chang’s.

I can’t even succeed even if I were the one doing it. Forget it then.

Pei Qian sighed silently, feeling extremely melancholic.

It was precisely because his publicity plans were always inexplicably popular that he hoped to recruit Meng Chang under his wing and let a professional like Meng Chang work on reverse publicity for him.

In the end, why was it that Meng Chang, a professional, could not achieve it as well?

Meng Chang racked his brains last month to think of three publicity plans. In the end, the publicity effect got from good to better. There was no need to think about it. He could forget about getting a single cent in commission last month other than his base salary.

If Pei Qian did not know that Meng Chang owed a huge sum of money, he would have thought that he was actually a person who did not care about fame and fortune.

However, Pei Qian would definitely not forgive Meng Chang because of this. It wasn’t easy for you, Meng Chang, but was it easy for me?

Did you know how much trouble these promotional proposals would cause me with the popularity, the publicity effect, and the money earned?

How much effort would I have to put into getting rid of all these effects?

Pei Qian sighed softly and opened the reports from the various departments under Tengda. He began to think about how to clean up the mess that Meng Chang had left for him.

At that moment, the phone on the table rang.

Pei Qian picked it up and saw that it was Wu Yue from FV Club.

“Boss Pei, I have something to report to you.”

“Finger Games has prepared a special fund because of the pressure of public opinion. They forced all clubs in ICL league to arrange the daily life and training of the players according to their standards…”

Pei Qian could not help but frown. “Eh? Pressure from public opinion?”

Wu Yue: “That’s right, Boss Pei. The promotional video for ‘Coming Out Of The Cocoon Without Becoming A Butterfly’ created huge public pressure. Finger Games’ ICL league must be matched with GPL in all aspects, so…”

Pei Qian was a little confused as he asked, “What has this got to do with us? FV Club must have met the requirements, right?”

Wu Yue: “That’s right, Boss Pei, we definitely reached the standards. However, Zhao Xuming is treating all the clubs in the ICL league equally. Therefore, he will not give a single cent less to our club.”

“I thought that there is no way to reject it since this is the unified rule of the ICL, and there is no reason to reject it.”

“You don’t need to pay FV Club regularly since Finger Games has offered this sum of money. I’ve already called Finance to tell them not to pay in the future.”

“I’m informing you as I’m afraid you wouldn’t know. Don’t worry, Boss Pei. FV Club can rely on ourselves in the future. We’ll be responsible for our profits and losses and won’t need to spend your money anymore!”

Pei Qian’s mouth opened slightly, and he nearly fainted.

Finger Games was crazy!

Who asked you to fork out money for FV Team, ah? Did you have so much money to burn!

I spend a bit of money on FV Team every month, it’s comfortable giving them meals and building fitness cards. It might not cost much but it’s still a psychological comfort.

Yet, all of you want to stop me? You want to deprive me of the right to spend such a small sum of money?

It was too much!

Pei Qian hung up and began to think about how to take revenge.

A windfall had appeared out of nowhere. He had to spend it immediately, or there would be endless trouble!

He was just thinking about it when someone knocked on the door.

Assistant Xin pushed the door open and entered. “Boss Pei, Meng Chang is here.”

Pei Qian’s face darkened. “Yes, let him in!”

It was March 1st today. According to the agreement signed previously, Meng Chang had to report to work and determine the commission based on the marketing effect.

Pei Qian arranged for a special analysis team to follow Meng Chang’s advertising plan throughout the entire process. They would also analyze various factors such as influence and give a very detailed analysis report. Finally, they would come up with a suitable popularity index from 0 to 100.

The exact amount of commission would be based on the popularity index.

Pei Qian had already sent the report to his email last month, but he had not read it yet.

That was because the outcome would be the same whether he read it or not.

Of course, he had to go through the motions. That was also why Meng Chang came here today.

Pei Qian found the report and opened it on his laptop, waiting for Meng Chang to arrive.

A moment later, there was another knock on the door outside the conference room. Meng Chang had arrived.

“Boss Pei.”

Meng Chang’s expression was filled with disappointment. He seemed to have suffered a huge blow. The high-spirited feeling he had previously was gone.

What’s more, he was looking at Pei Qian with mixed emotions. There was fear, evasion, and a little hatred.

To Meng Chang, the effect of the three consecutive publicity plans were all contrary to his wishes. Boss Pei was definitely behind this!

Until now, he finally understood why Boss Pei had signed such an agreement with him. He could only say that Boss Pei’s intentions were vicious!

However, despite saying that, Meng Chang was obedient and did not dare to show any anger because he could feel that Pei Qian had almost killed him with every step he took.

Meng Chang felt helpless in the face of absolute suppression in intelligence.

Pei Qian’s anger dissipated by more than half seeing Meng Chang in such a miserable state. He even felt sympathetic.

Sigh, he couldn’t blame Meng Chang. He looked like he had tried his best after all.

“This is the analysis report from last month. Take a look.” Pei Qian handed the laptop to Meng Chang.

Meng Chang took it and scanned it symbolically before putting it back.

There was no need to look. All three proposals were extremely popular.

Pei Qian’s heart ached as he said, “There’s no commission, only three thousand yuan. No objections, right?”

Meng Chang nodded. “Yes.”

Pei Qian was in a similar state of grief as Meng Chang at that moment as he had not been able to successfully reverse publicize and had not been able to produce high commission.

However, Pei Qian was a strong person after all. He had seen such a situation too many times. He felt that he should encourage Meng Chang. After all, the two of them had signed a contract for a full ten years. It was only the first month.

It would definitely not be good news for Pei Qian if Meng Chang could not recover from consecutive setbacks.

“The first month’s results are not ideal, but don’t be discouraged.”

“After all, you’ve only been in Tengda for a while. You don’t know much about the company’s work. Sometimes, things go against your wishes.”

“However, people learn from their mistakes. You’re a smart person. You should learn from your mistakes. I believe that you’ll benefit from these three experiences. Keep it up in March!”

Pei Qian sounded very sincere.

However, Meng Chang was filled with question marks.

Logically speaking, the boss’s words to his subordinates should have been very heartwarming and encouraging.

His subordinate had not done his job well. The boss expressed his tolerance, hoping that he could learn from his lessons and do his job well in the future. There was nothing wrong with any word.

However, Meng Chang felt that there was something wrong with those words!

He was obviously being sarcastic!

Meng Chang’s publicity plan was a huge success. Tengda Corporation’s various industries earned both popularity and money. What’s more, Boss Pei only paid three thousand yuan for the three proposals.

Boss Pei should have profited from any angle.

Yet, Boss Pei had pretended to let him learn from his mistakes and work harder?

Ridiculous!

Yet, Boss Pei’s expression was so sincere. It was as if every word he said was sincere.

Meng Chang could not help but feel emotional. If Boss Pei were to act, he would probably be able to get an Oscar. How would Lu Zhiyao, Zhang Zuting, and the others be able to do anything?

Meng Chang had nowhere to vent his anger and could only nod stiffly. “I… I’ll work harder.”

Pei Qian nodded, very satisfied with Meng Chang’s attitude.

Very good, young man, don’t give up so quickly. Those with ambition will succeed.

“You’ve worked hard this month. Go back and have a good rest. I’ll look for you when I think of a new mission.”

“Of course, you can look for me anytime if you have any good ideas.”

Pei Qian comforted Meng Chang again.

Meng Chang smiled stiffly and turned around to escape.

Pei Qian began thinking about the ICL after watching Meng Chang leave the office.

It would be impolite not to reciprocate.

Since Eric and Zhao Xuming saved him money, he had to spend more on them!

However… Where should he spend it?

Pei Qian casually browsed the internet and realized that there were a lot of publicity materials for the ICL league. It was overwhelming.

Apart from the promotional video, Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation were also trying their best to publicize the ICL league’s subsidies to the various clubs. It was quite popular.

Many industry insiders analyzed that the reason why Finger Games was willing to spend so much money to improve the training conditions of the various clubs was partly to deal with the public crisis and build a good reputation. On the other hand, it was to better maintain the commercial value of the ICL league.

According to rumors, Finger Games and Long Yu Corporation seemed to be discussing the broadcasting rights of ICL with domestic live-stream platforms. However, they had not discussed it yet. It was unclear as to how exactly it was progressing.

Pei Qian’s eyes lit up.

ICL’s broadcast rights?

Wasn’t this a good opportunity to spend money?
