Chapter 737: Boss Wei is abused by his own employees
Magic City, Red Shark Headquarters
Boss Wei, Tang Yan, Hu Jun and other main creators of "Chi Le Chuan" showed up to visit the building, which caused various cheers.

Under normal circumstances, when film and television crews visit buildings, they mainly use video platforms, including social + short video platforms such as Weibo and Douyin that can play a significant role in promotion.

Of course, sometimes we also enter big companies such as Penguin, Alibaba, NetEase, and even Huawei and Xiaomi.

The propaganda effect of these places is not so direct, but the actual impact is also significant.

More importantly, for large companies, celebrities’ building visits can be used as a means of external publicity to enhance the company’s image, and can also increase benefits for employees. Not only do the celebrities and crews get exposure, but some also have the opportunity to secure some cooperation opportunities. It’s a true win-win situation.

Although Red Shark's main business is games, it actually has many channels for cooperation with film and television for promotion.

In addition to the interactive film and game strategies of Blue Whale and Red Shark, many crews are already connected with Red Shark, so the company’s employees have experienced quite a few visits from stars/crews.

For example, last month’s "Dear, Beloved" was a drama about e-sports, and Red Shark was one of the producers. There were many Red Shark elements both inside and outside the drama, and the connection between the two parties was still very deep.

After the series became a hit, the crew also came to the Red Shark headquarters to visit, causing a sensation.

"Chi Le Chuan" actually has a lot of interactions with the Red Shark.

In order to cooperate with the crew's publicity, during the period when "Chi Le Chuan" was popular, Red Shark's ace game "Honor of Kings" launched a new hero [Gao Huan].

This [Gao Huan] has many similarities in skills, lines, and image with the male protagonist Gao Huan in "Chi Le Chuan". Even the dubbing was done by a voice actor whose voice is very similar to that of Boss Wei.

In addition to "Honor of Kings", some other games also have different types and degrees of linkage.

For example, launching similar activities, NPCs or related skins, etc. There are various ways to interact with the film and the game. As long as you can think of it and put in the effort, there is nothing you can't do.

Because there are more interactive contacts and it is his own business, Boss Wei also has selfish motives, so the "Chi Le Chuan" building tour also has a stop at Red Shark.

When celebrities visit buildings, their audience is mostly female employees. There are also many male employees who support them, but some of them are indifferent to the entertainment industry.

As a gaming company, Red Shark has more male employees and a huge group of otakus, so it stands to reason that there would be many who are not interested in the three-dimensional world.

But in reality, every time the Red Shark raids a building, it causes quite a stir.

On the one hand, although Red Shark has more male employees, the proportion of female employees is not low, at least compared with other game companies in the industry, it ranks among the best.

After all, there may be more men in professions such as game planners and programmers, but other supporting positions are much more flexible. In addition, Red Shark also makes games for women, and there are many female game practitioners.

It is said that a single yin cannot grow, a single yang cannot exist!

Regardless of whether it is men or women, companies where a single gender makes up the majority will have more or less problems, and the working atmosphere and environment will also be affected.

On the contrary, the gender ratio of employees has reached a corresponding balance. With men and women working together, work is not tiring, which is a good thing from the perspective of the company's overall direction.

This is not nonsense. Most Internet companies and game companies are basically composed of male employees in the early stages, but they will consciously expand the number of female employees in subsequent development.

As a major gaming company, Red Shark has a huge employee base. Even if the proportion is smaller, the number of female employees is still considerable.

Just the sight of these people getting together is lively enough.

As for the male employees, who were chattering about how their 2D wives would be their lifelong partners, how women were nothing, and how playing games was fun, etc., when they heard that a female star was coming to sweep the building, they rushed out faster than rabbits.

When that Zha came before, a few shameless old men yelled and screamed, and they suppressed all the female employees, and it even became a hot topic on Douyin.

Tang Yan and Li Xin who came today are also very popular among the male group, especially the latter. After starring in dramas such as "Zhu Xian", she has already become the "new wife" of many people.

From the moment the floor sweep began, several male employees began cheering for Li Xin at the top of their lungs, even to the point that Li Xin, who had seen a lot of things, blushed.

Even the boss Wei Yang couldn't stand it and made fun of it during a later interview.

"You have some ambition, you have made it seem like you have entered a den of wolves. You are not afraid of social death, but I am ashamed of it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shouting at the scene became even louder. Not only did the male employees join in the fun, but even the female employees turned into female wolves and "tease" Boss Wei and Hu Jun in various ways.

Normally, no one would dare to mess around with the boss, but the situation was special and there were many people and they were bold, so it would be a waste if you didn't take the opportunity to say a few words.

Although the Red Shark's sweeps of the building were usually lively, today was a record-breaking day.

The biggest reason is that Boss Wei is here. Some departments organize people to show up to support them, but most people come here spontaneously to join in the fun. They can tease the boss while not at work. Who wouldn't want that?

At first, people were shouting, "Boss, you're so handsome! I want to have a baby with you!" Then someone asked for a raise, and Boss Wei picked up the microphone and said,

"Having a baby is not off-limits, but a pay raise is out of the question."

"Shut up!"

Now, even several senior executives of Red Shark followed suit and booed him. Boss Wei recognized him and called him out for a warning regarding his year-end bonus, which caused laughter among the ordinary employees.

Perhaps because of Boss Wei’s special status, the atmosphere on the scene was extremely warm, driving up the emotions of the main creators as well.

When you come to a game company, it is impossible not to play games. Basically every crew and star who comes to Red Shark will play games.

After the interview session, there was a friendly e-sports match.

"Chi Le Chuan" VS Red Shark

Hu Jun is old and seldom plays games, but I didn’t expect that the artistic man Zhang Zhen also knows a few tricks.

Wei Yang, Tang Yan and Li Xinhui picked two or three other main creators to form a team.

The host knew what everyone wanted to know and asked everyone about their game level.

Most of them are at the gold and platinum levels. The one with the highest level is Tang Yan, whose level in "Honor of Kings" is Star Glory. For ordinary people, this level is already quite good.

However, Boss Wei knew that a considerable part of Tang Yan's rank was due to Da Mimi.

The latter likes the game "Honor of Kings" very much and plays it well. His rank is Glory King, which can barely be called a high-level player.

The two had a good relationship and often played games together. Tang Yan relied on Da Mimi's help to reach the Star Glory level. Liu Shishi played less but also reached Diamond.

As for Boss Wei's rank in Honor of Kings, it is gold, which is only slightly better than the rookie bronze and silver levels.

Of course, he tried to save face by claiming that he didn't play much and didn't play ranked games much, and his actual level was around diamond, which caused another wave of boos from the audience.

In fact, Wei Yang's rank remains at gold, indeed because he doesn't play much, but his level is also not high.

He also thought about asking Da Mimi to guide him. But how should I put it? Perhaps it was a rare opportunity to attack and ridicule Boss Wei. This woman was so venomous when she was scolding Boss Wei during the game. Wei Yang boasted that he had a high psychological quality, but he was broken by her twice.

From then on, Wei Yang refused to play games with Da Mimi, and even his enthusiasm for the game "Honor of Kings" dropped significantly.

However, compared to the bleak performance in "Honor of Kings", Wei Yang's rank in the mobile game of the same name "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" is not low.

In the peak season, I reached Super Ace, which is similar to the strongest king in "Honor of Kings". It is the second rank in the game. It is not a high-level player, but it is also an upper-level player.

Of course, we have introduced Boss Wei’s playing style of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds before. He is a very cunning guy and most of his ranks were gained by hustling.

But getting points by surviving is still getting points, and the high rank obtained by surviving is also a real achievement!
When seeing the game page posted by Boss Wei, many Red Shark employees exclaimed.

Boss Wei knows that anyone who has played the games produced by his own company knows this, and he has said it on many occasions. However, many people think that he is simply promoting his own games, and no one knows whether he actually plays them privately or not.

After all, in most people's impressions, the richest man like Boss Wei should have no time and no interest in games.

But I didn’t expect that Boss Wei would actually play it, and he played it quite well.

Anyone who can reach this level, unless they have hired a power player, their gaming time and level are very impressive.

With the boss showing such support, many Red Shark employees were naturally proud of it, especially those working on the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds project, who cheered loudly.

The friendly match began. After all, it was a professional gaming company, and the venue and equipment were extremely complete.

Not only is there a big screen and commentary, but there is also a live broadcast room on PPTV, so that people who can't see the big screen clearly and passers-by can see the game screen.

There were two rounds of each of the three Red Shark signature games. There were only a few people in the crew of "Chi Le Chuan", and Red Shark picked more than twenty people.

Tang Yan looked at the people who were ready to fight and had a bad feeling.

"It has to be our Red Shark employees. Don't send some professional players over here."

A Blue Whale executive said with a smile: "Don't worry, we are just ordinary employees and amateur players. We haven't even experienced professional tryouts."

Boss Wei didn't say anything, you have already started to pick heroes. Since it is a promotion for "Chi Le Chuan", you must use the newly released Gao Huan.

He actually hadn't played this character much before. He was still in the trial and familiarization stage for the first one or two minutes, and then he was killed.

"Just get started."

Before Boss Wei could even finish his complaint, Tang Yan next to him also died, and then Li Xin. The basic rhythm of the following few people was that they were resurrected and killed, resurrected and killed again. They didn't even reach the late stage, but were killed when they were blocked at the door in the middle stage.

This group of people even deliberately didn't push the crystal, they just wanted to kill people for fun.

Tang Yan and Li Xin both shut themselves off, and one teammate even went viral. If they hadn't been concerned about the live broadcast, they would have started cursing.

Boss Wei was fine. In fact, before the game started, someone had already asked him whether he wanted to deliberately create some live broadcast effects.

Under normal circumstances, when playing games with the big boss, you have to let him win, and you have to do it at a very high level. You have to fight hard and lose, so that the big boss can show off all kinds of skills and finally shine the whole audience. Then you can go to the hot searches to hype up how good Boss Wei is at the game, and that excellent people are also good at playing games, etc.

Although this can allow Boss Wei to get some attention, that's all.

Does Boss Wei need to be good at marketing games?
This character setting has no effect on him. Most people are not interested in him showing off his gaming skills, and some people may even question whether he is playing a fixed game.

In essence, today's activities are still for publicity, so naturally there have to be some gimmicks to make them a hit.

Conventional routines are boring, and doing the opposite will create more topics.

Boss Wei’s dazzling performance in gaming only attracted one or two trending searches. But if Boss Wei was beaten badly by his own employees while gaming and broke down, he might even dominate the entire internet.

Everyone likes to see fun, and they like to see successful people suffer setbacks even more.

Boss Wei might not be willing to do other humiliating things. "Chi Le Chuan" is not enough to make him sacrifice to that extent, but being abused while playing games is really nothing big.

To a certain extent, such small "accidents" and jokes about them can actually bring him closer to the public.

Just like Boss Lei, his English accent was mocked by all kinds of people and seemed to have embarrassed him, but in fact he became one of the most popular entrepreneurs and benefited greatly.

However, even though Boss Wei was mentally prepared, he did not expect these beasts to be so cruel.

I was beaten from the beginning to the end, you should at least let me fight back once...

Tang Yan was getting a little impatient at last, and asked the executive just now: "Didn't they say that they are all ordinary employees? Have they become professionals?"

She has really played games with professionals. Although the number of times is not many and they may not be serious, but she can still feel their level.

The executives were also a little embarrassed. These people were indeed not professionals, but they were definitely top amateurs.

Almost all of them are at the highest level, and some of them are senior testers of the game "Honor of Kings".

They are not professional players, but they are professional gamers. They have played countless games and know all the tricks of the game. Even professional players cannot guarantee a win.

Tang Yan: "..."

Is this any different from calling two professional players over?

The live broadcast was effective, and the onlookers were very happy. Boss Wei began to regain his momentum and pulled back several of his most cheerful Red Shark executives to start over.

This time we win!
Most of the executives’ gaming skills are not that good, and it’s obvious that the boss is trying to find psychological balance. If he doesn’t give in at this time, does that mean he really doesn’t want to do this job anymore?

One win and one loss!
This result was acceptable. In the next two games, Red Shark sent out experts in turn. Wei Yang was abused and took it out on the executives.

The workers saw enough fun from the bosses and executives, and Wei Yang and the executives also got the highlights and effects they wanted.

However, Tang Yan and a few others were still injured. That group of people were too cruel.

There were also a few people who I didn't know whether they were too straight and wanted to show off, or they were deliberately showing off their skills, but they specifically targeted Tang Yan and Li Xinsha. If the two of them had a little worse psychological quality, they would have cried on the spot.

On the contrary, although Boss Wei was beaten badly the first time, after seeing the operations of the senior executives, they restrained their intensity, which at least allowed Boss Wei to shine occasionally.

After all, if someone can’t afford to play and brings up the past afterwards, wouldn’t that mean they think their job is too comfortable…
