In the afternoon, explore the city scenery in Jingzhou.
In the evening, enjoy a delicious meal at Mingyun Private Kitchen.
Xia Jiang and the interview team were very moved as they gnawed on the big lobster.
The reception standards are too high!
As a reporter, interviews are also divided into different standards. There are some pitfalls, but there is also some hard work.
Generally speaking, if the other party invites you for an interview, the standards will definitely be higher. The other party will cover transportation expenses, accommodation fees, and sometimes give each person five hundred to one thousand yuan for travel expenses, which is commonly known as red envelopes.
But this interview with Tengda was not actively invited by Tengda, but officially organized.
As usual, Tenda does not need to cover travel and accommodation expenses.
But Mr. Pei took the initiative to bear these expenses!
Not only that, whether it is travel expenses, accommodation expenses, or even daily business cars and meals, they are all arranged according to such high standards, which makes everyone take it seriously.
Coupled with this inestimable meal, Xia Jiang and others were simply flattered!
At the dinner table, Xia Jiang was still considering whether to chat with Mr. Pei in advance and collect some interview materials in advance.
However, when all kinds of dazzling rare ingredients were served, this matter was immediately forgotten.
Just ate it!
There are many delicious things that I have only heard of but never seen. This time, they are all brought to my mouth. How can I not try them?
Moreover, the waiters here have obviously received special training in serving the dishes, and the time of each dish is arranged just right, making people eat very smoothly.
After finishing the dessert, Xia Jiang touched his slightly bulging belly guiltily.
Damn it, Mr. Pei took such good care of me that he didn’t find a chance to interrupt!
After leaving Mingyun Private Kitchen, Xia Jiang quietly took out his mobile phone and opened Dianping.com.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
Isn’t this place the same unknown restaurant that was so popular before?
It is said that reservations for this place are reserved for two or three months, and it is so popular that locals in Jingzhou may not even be able to get it if they want to eat.
Everyone looked at Mr. Pei with a little more respect and gratitude.
This film must be shot well, and it must not let down Mr. Pei’s wishes!
Xia Jiang was very moved: "Mr. Pei, thank you for the hospitality!"
"We'll make some preparations after we go back tonight, and we'll officially start the interview tomorrow morning, right?"
Pei Qian shook his head: "No, no, no, there are other arrangements for tomorrow."
"Tomorrow morning we will invite you all to sit at Moyu Internet Cafe and interview game companies. How can you not play games?"
"Let's continue to experience the beautiful scenery of Jingzhou in the afternoon."
"Jingzhou has outstanding people and picturesque scenery. How can it be enough to just see it in one afternoon? You have to experience it more!"
"Let's all have a good rest tonight and tomorrow night. After all, the journey is tiring and we have plenty of time, so we don't need to be so nervous. We will officially start the interview in the morning the day after tomorrow."
Xia Jiang was stunned: "Ah? Mr. Pei, wouldn't this be inappropriate?"
Pei Qian smiled and shook his head: "There's nothing inappropriate about this! Isn't everyone doing it to better capture this interview? It's up to you to do whatever you want. Just relax and listen to my arrangements."
…
October 18th.
In the morning, Xia Jiang and his group were drinking coffee and surfing the Internet at Moyu Internet Cafe. They were surprised by this emerging Internet cafe model.
After all, Moyu Internet Cafe is currently limited to Jingzhou and has not spread to other big cities.
In the afternoon, everyone took another half-day trip to Jingzhou and visited some of the remaining famous attractions.
In the evening, Mr. Pei arranged for everyone to have dinner at the Swan Lake Restaurant.
As for why he was not at the nameless restaurant, Mr. Pei also briefly explained: No reservation.
Swan Lake Restaurant is a buffet. Although the environment is still high-end and the dishes are still rich, Xia Jiang can clearly feel that it is much worse than the nameless restaurant!
Whether you compare the ingredients, the chef's cooking skills, the dining environment, the service, etc., you can clearly feel the difference.
But what is the difference? It’s not clear.
It can only be said that when these details accumulate, there is a big gap in experience.
Xia Jiang was not dissatisfied because of this, but was even more moved.
The meal at Swan Lake Restaurant is already very high-end, but compared with the nameless restaurant, it pales in comparison.
Then what a high-level standard Mr. Pei’s reception banquet had yesterday!
Ordinary people coming to Jingzhou will definitely not enjoy this kind of treatment, right?
Mr. Pei is so open-minded and interesting!
In the eyes of Xia Jiang and others, Mr. Pei's image has grown infinitely taller.
Everyone felt a little heartbroken when they thought that Mr. Pei, who developed so many classic games, was so low-key.
It was really our dereliction of duty for not reporting to Mr. Pei in time!
I must conduct a good interview, at least not let down the meal last night!
…
night.
Xia Jiang returned to the hotel, took out his notebook and quickly typed on the keyboard to sort out his ideas for tomorrow's interview.
If she doesn't work anymore, she will feel a little embarrassed.
After arriving the day before yesterday, I first went to Jingzhou to play around, then had a big meal and rested in the evening;
Today I sat at an Internet cafe, then visited some scenic spots in Jingzhou, and had another big meal in the evening.
This is a real feast and full of energy.
"Mr. Pei's schedule is quite reasonable and thoughtful."
"Jingzhou is so big that you can't finish all the sightseeing in one day, so we specially divided it into two afternoons. The weather in the afternoon is relatively warm, which is suitable for walking outside. At the same time, the amount of exercise every day is not too large and will not make people feel tired."
"Moreover, I really got some material that can be used in interviews."
Xia Jiang recalled what she had seen and heard in the past two days. At this moment, all the good things she had eaten turned into nutrients and flowed into her brain, making her bursting with inspiration.
Especially after playing several Tenda games on the highest-end computer at Moyu Internet Cafe this morning, Xia Jiang gained a completely different gaming experience, which gave her a deeper understanding of Mr. Pei’s game design concepts.
.
Suddenly, thoughts surged.
Xia Jiang believes that Mr. Pei’s game design concepts that transcend the times, coupled with his first-class writing style, will surely spark fierce sparks and make this interview a hot topic in the gaming circle!
…
…
Early the next morning, the interview team arrived at Tenda’s office.
Although everyone in the interview team was quite shocked by such a spacious and majestic office space, everyone who had seen enough surprises in the past two days remained as calm as possible.
There will be a process of interviewing employees later. Such a good office space is definitely a very important material and topic, and it is impossible to let it go.
Today is mainly an interview with Mr. Pei, which happens to be held in Tengda’s reception room.
The main cameraman set up the main camera and made an OK gesture, indicating that he could start at any time.
The two gaming machines were carried by two other cameramen to take pictures from other angles for later editing.
Xia Jiang sat on the sofa and found that he was still a little nervous. This was a very rare thing.
When Pei Qian saw these three cameras outside the reception room, he felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy. He quickly grabbed Assistant Xin and gave him a few words.
Two minutes later, Assistant Xin came to the reception room and took Xia Jiang to explain Mr. Pei's meaning.
"Editor Xia, Mr. Pei hopes not to use a camera during his interview, and only produces transcripts. When he interviews other employees, the video materials will be released."
Xia Jiang was stunned: "How can that work? Mr. Pei is the protagonist of this interview!"
I took a lot of pictures of Jingzhou’s scenery and Tengda’s working environment, and then conducted very detailed interviews with the employees. However, the real owner never showed up, which was a bit inappropriate.
Assistant Xin smiled and said: "Editor Xia, to be honest, our Pei is always a very low-key person and doesn't like to show off."
"Mr. Pei didn't even plan to accept an interview this time."
"However, Mr. Pei considers that the honor does not belong to him personally, but is the result of the joint efforts of all Tengda employees. He hopes that employees will get this opportunity to be commended."
"So, Mr. Pei hopes to leave more content to the employees. As for himself, a simple written interview is enough."
"But Editor Xia, don't worry. The employees we have selected this time are all key employees. Each of them can play their own role and they are also very topical."
Xia Jiang was instinctively reluctant.
After traveling all the way, the most important thing, Mr. Pei, was not taken. Isn’t this interview tasteless?
There are no video materials, only transcripts, so the effect of this interview will definitely be greatly reduced.
But Mr. Pei was so interesting to everyone in the interview team, and his sincerity was overwhelming.
Mr. Pei himself is indifferent to fame and fortune and is not willing to show off too much, so he is not very good at forcing others to make things difficult for him, right?
Xia Jiang thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, since Mr. Pei is indifferent to fame and fortune, let's follow Mr. Pei's wishes. I will adapt accordingly and try my best to follow Mr. Pei's intentions while ensuring the effect of the interview as a film."
All three cameras were turned off, waiting to be turned on later when interviewing employees.
Pei Qian then entered the reception room and sat on the sofa for an exclusive interview.
Although Xia Jiang felt a little discouraged when all the cameras were turned off, he was an experienced professional reporter after all and had experienced many kinds of interviews, so he quickly regained his composure and quickly went through the key questions to be asked in his mind.
.
"Mr. Pei, we all know that Tenda Games has launched many excellent games with good reputation and sales since its establishment. The majority of players also love your games very much."
"So, why did you choose the gaming industry instead of other fields? Is there any special opportunity?"
Pei Qian was silent for a moment: "It was completely decided by a slap on the forehead. In fact, I have always regretted this decision. I wish I had chosen other fields."
Xia Jiang: "Ah?"
She smiled: "Mr. Pei is joking, you can make so many well-received games, which obviously reflects your profound accumulation. If there is no accumulation, how can you make "Game Producer" and "Return to the Shore"
What about a game with this kind of connotation and profoundness?”
Pei Qian showed a slightly bitter smile: "It's true. In fact, I haven't mastered the use of the official editor yet."
"As for why these games can be made..."
"There is no way, my employees are too 'excellent'."
Mr. Pei said it with a bit of gritted teeth.
Xia Jiang looked serious and began to take shorthand in a small notebook.
"A talented designer with unconstrained ideas and eclectic thinking."
"You haven't systematically learned any relevant game design knowledge. Is this what you call a genius?"
"I have never stuck to traditional game design ideas, but put aside the constraints of those rules and regulations and let my ideas fly freely."
“Full trust in the employees.”
"Humble and open-minded. Attribute all the credit to the employees, don't be greedy for credit, don't ask for credit, and are extremely low-key!"
