Lin Wan showed a confident smile. âYou have asked the critical question. In my opinion, this is the highlight of the game! That is⌠knowing that something is wrong doesnât mean that you can succeed.
âIf you resisted your inner greed and insisted on your initial resolutionsâif you propelled yourself using your dream⌠does that mean that you can produce a good game? No.
âOne of the endings goes like this. The producers followed their conscience throughout. They spared no thoughts about the profit models of the game. In the end, many players enjoyed the game without paying anything. Although the game had good ratings, the producers were unable to recover their start-up costs. Even with the support of some players, they found it hard to keep up with their expenses and had to leave the game industry ultimately!
âThis is hinting that the game industry is not one where you succeed solely with your passion. Even if you were passionate and followed your conscience, you might still not succeed! This is harsh⌠but it may be the reality in the game industry.â
Lin Wan was a little sentimental. âTo think of it, I was too immature in the past. Achieving both reputation and profit is not a simple task. Our constant success⌠was because of what Boss Pei did to drive us forward.â
Lin Wanâs words made everyone solemn.
Yes.
The time spent working in Tengda made many of them develop an illusion. It seemed as though everything that they achieved was meant to be. However, look at the state of other games companies. Recall their previous work experiences.
The reason they did not feel the pressure was because there was someone to shoulder all those pressures for them!
That person was Boss Pei!
If they recalled the entire process, this entire gameâfrom its creativity to design and even the exact voice-oversâwere all carefully edited by Boss Pei.
The other people were only in charge of some administrative work.
If the game failed, Boss Pei would obviously be the main person to be held responsible for its failure.
Meanwhile, if the game succeeded, the credit belonged to everyone!
If one looked at other bossesâŚ
They would normally not be concerned about the work and explained their actions as delegating powers to their employees. When the project failed, the first thing that they would do was to find fault and throw the blame at others. Anyways, the boss would never be in the wrong.
The difference was very apparent in this comparison!
Lin Wan continued, âTherefore, it is clear why Boss Pei assigned you to do the voice-overs. Firstly, your voice is suitable for voice-overs. Secondly, your biggest advantage is your knowledge of games!
âYou must not belittle this point. This is very important for voice actors! The voice-overs could be viewed as the greed and desires of the game designers. It misleads them into the wrong path. For the voice-overs to fulfill such purposes, merely having a suitable voice was not enough.
âYou need to be clear of all the traps in the game industry. You need to have a deep understanding of this industry. You must have an accurate understanding of such inner greed and desires!
âOrdinary voice actors would never be able to grasp that feeling!â
Those words struck Lu Mingliang like a bolt of lightning and jolted him awake.
So that was why! So that was the motive behind Boss Peiâs arrangements!
He grabbed the voice-over script hurriedly and scanned it.
Yes. That was it!
No wonder Boss Pei edited the lines personally many times. The reason was to achieve that feeling! Thatâs why they needed a more passionate voice!
Lu Mingliang nodded his head.
âI understand. I will definitely not let Boss Pei down!â
âŚ
After the meeting ended, Lu Mingliang left the company and arrived at the best recording studio in Jingzhou City for the voice recording. Meanwhile, Lin Wan returned to her desk. She continued reading the voice-over lines after she had completed her work.
She realized that she gained new insights every time she read it!
Game Designer was a game that involved many subsections and endings. Going through each of the subsections and their respective endings felt as though she was experiencing the life and death of a game company each time.
Some achieved immeasurable fame. Some left the industry in distress.
After she had immersed herself into the emotions of the game designers, Lin Wan finally realized that her understanding of the game industry previously was too superficial. She had originally thought that games should bring people happiness and games companies should do so, too.
However, after her internship at Sun Strike Studios, she realized that domestic games companies were not like what she had imagined. Just when she was feeling disappointed, Tengda appeared!
Therefore, she followed Tengdaâs footsteps without any hesitation.
Of course, Lin Wan did not trust the company blindly. As an ordinary employee, she slowly integrated into the working environment and attempted to produce her own designs.
Before she had entered Tengda, she saw mountains as mountains. When she gained a deeper understanding of the industry, she came to the point where she saw that mountains were not mountains. Now that she had understood its very core, she saw mountains once again as mountainsâŚ
Lin Wan felt that she had benefited immensely!
She might not be able to attain so much if she was in any other game company in the country! That meant that Tengda was a unique game company in the country. Its uniqueness was not because of its salary, but this unique trait that it possessed instead!
However, no matter how hard Lin Wan contemplated, she constantly felt that there was this unique aura around Boss Pei.
She just couldnât understand it!
Everything that Boss Pei did seem unreasonable initially but would cause others to be in revelation once the underlying reasons behind his decisions were exposed. Most importantly, Boss Peiâs nonchalance towards money made it appear as though he had a saintly vibe surrounding him.
This was the most precious thing!
âIâve come to the right place. If there was a day when I can understand Boss Peiâs thoughts, I will then become a top-notch game designer!â
Lin Wan secretly set her resolutions.

March 3rdâŚ
Bao Xu, who appeared weary after the long distance that he traveled, appeared in front of the entrance to Tengda Network Technology Co., Ltd.
âIâm so tired.â
Bao Xuâs face appeared slightly tanned. He had only one expression on his face. That wasâŚ
I am finally f*cking back!
He had his fill of travel for the year! He was originally a geek that trapped himself in his house and would not even want to leave the chair for a minute. Yet, he had been forced by Pei Qian to spend a month outside. His schedule every day was extremely packed. The reason was that Assistant Xin made him report his location to ensure that he attended every scheduled event!
He had to report to designated places in the morning and evening in every city that he went to. After reporting to those places, he would then return to his motel. He was too tired to even go online and play games.
As a dreaded one month, the journey had finally ended.
When Bao Xu returned to the company with his backpack, he only had one thought. He missed the company dearly! If there ever were another opportunity for a paid leave, he must f*cking leave the opportunity for others!
Anyone who wanted the opportunity could have it. There was no way he would experience this again!
Everyone noticed Bao Xu once he entered the door.
âEh? Brother Bao is back!â
âBrother Bao, you look much healthier.â
âAlthough youâve lost weight, it seems as though you have grown taller.â
âYou look much livelier, and some hair on your hairline seems to have grown back!â
Bao Xu was stunned. âOh. Really?â
He threw his backpack on the office desk and sat down on the gaming chair.
Comfortable!

He had indeed found that his health had improved tremendously. During this one month, Bao Xu was mostly outside every day. Therefore, he did not notice the little changes to his body. After others pointed that out when he returned, he then realized that he seemed to have more vigor and vitality in his body.
Bao Xu used to spend his days in internet cafes. His sleep schedule was severely messed up. His meal times, rest times, and daily routines⌠there were a lot of problems with them.

During this month that he spent traveling, he had to walk a lot and was exposed to the sun often. His work and rest times had become structured. His meals had become more appetizing. His health had improved tremendously unwittingly!
