Number One Game Designer

"Give me something, and you go back to work."

The girl at the front desk faced Qiu who was always a middle-aged man with graying hair.

The past three years have been a year of drastic changes and expansion for Hongyi, but it has been a precarious three years for companies like Donghuang.

Donghuang's current situation is actually a bit strange.

In the past three years, the company Donghuang has changed four people in the position of director of operations, and President Qiu just took office in July.

He has read Donghuang's financial reports over the years, and here is the interesting thing. According to the financial reports, Donghuang's annual income has not dropped much compared with the peak period three years ago. Three years ago, Donghuang earned five yuan a year. More than 100 million. Now three years later, according to the financial report, the ten-month revenue will also be 430 million. There must be a decline, but if it is really a company that is targeted by a leader with an almost monopoly position in the industry, such a revenue It is definitely not right.

Since there is no problem with revenue, shouldn't the company be thriving?

Unfortunately not. In three years, Donghuang's revenue has only dropped by less than 10%. However, in the three years, the company's management has changed frequently. Mr. Qiu's position has changed four people in three years, not to mention the statistics of employees. This aspect is also clear:

The three-month turnover rate of employees is 19%

The six-month turnover rate of employees is 27%

The annual turnover rate of employees is 47%

That is to say, people who come to Donghuang to work will definitely leave their jobs within a year or so. Three years ago, Donghuang had the title of a small state-owned enterprise in Wangjing, and almost became a permanent job.

The employee turnover rate is high, but the company's revenue has not decreased significantly. Of course, Mr. Qiu has to figure out what's going on: even if he follows in the footsteps of the previous ones, at least let him figure out how he died, right?

Then Mr. Qiu sighed when he got the data last week, the data really can't lie.

In the past three years, Donghuang's revenue has not changed much, but in terms of China's market share in three years, Donghuang has dropped from the original 40% to the current less than 4%. The boss has become a dispensable existence now, and it is no wonder that the employees are panicked and have a high turnover rate.

At the same time, Mr. Qiu sighed in his heart. In three years, it seemed that Donghuang hadn't changed much. In fact, the rapid expansion of the game market caused by Hongyi had already left Donghuang far behind:

Sometimes it’s not that you become weaker when you are injured and bleed. If others become stronger and you remain the same, then you are considered weaker.

So President Qiu did a very practical thing after he came to power: to reconcile with Hong Yi.

It may not be appropriate to say that it is a reconciliation. In fact, with Hongyi's current size, Donghuang is not qualified to let Hongyi sit down and talk on an equal footing.

Mr. Qiu is of course concerned about the opportunity of the Carnival. His predecessors may have never had contact with Hongyi out of taboo or other reasons, but he doesn't want to do that.

In the current domestic game market, if you want to make money, it is impossible to break away from Hongyi.

So after comprehensive consideration, Mr. Qiu chose the option of applying for an exhibition booth on Hongyi.

After filling out an uncomplicated application form, Mr. Qiu received a call from Hongyi. The operator's tone was calm and sincere, and there was no particular eccentricity or problem.

After that, it's time to send your game to the review and the long waiting period.

Finally got this email today.

After waving his hand to signal the front desk to go back to work, President Qiu made a half-circle to the outside of the desk, read the email, picked it up and opened it.

Five work permits, a map guide, and an instruction manual, that’s all there is, there is also a name and phone number written on the white paper. The note below states that you can talk to this phone number for anything.

Ten minutes later, some people gathered in Donghuang's office. They were basically people from the operation department. They gathered together and whispered, not knowing what was going to happen.

Soon Mr. Qiu walked into the office, and almost at the same time the meeting room lost their voices, and everyone was staring at the file bag in Mr. Qiu's hand.

The red background is hot stamped, and there is a conspicuous Phoenix Feather logo on it, and a very obvious Hongyi logo. What's going on?

Mr. Qiu smiled, and put the document bag in his hand in front of him, facing up, and now everyone saw the words "Hongyi Carnival Invitation Letter" on the front, and everyone's eyes were burning for a while.

Adult work is a very complicated thing. Some people rely on it to realize their dreams, but more people rely on it to support their families.

And a series of complex conditions such as one's own ability, living conditions, emotional foundation, etc. can affect everyone's job choice, so although there are not many people who are optimistic about Donghuang, there are always people coming in, and as long as they are still working here, no People don't want their chances to be better.

"Last month, I sent our company's new game to Hongyi for review." Mr. Qiu's tone was relaxed and even interesting. A company with special circumstances like Donghuang is a rare example. Let him see It's interesting to see the various situations.

"Hongyi's work is very fast, our game has passed the review, and they invited us to participate in the Hongyi Carnival, just this year."

The atmosphere in the office finally heated up, but everyone didn't say anything, and they didn't know what to say in this situation.

"I asked the reviewer at Hongyi, and he said that it is a pity that our company did not apply last year. Hongyi has introduced many welfare measures for game producers, and he said that it is a pity that Donghuang has never participated in Hongyi's any activity."

"Mr. Qiu, isn't this too good... Last year, Mr. Han said that we should fight Hongyi with the same hatred..." An employee cautiously raised a different opinion.

Mr. Qiu glanced at him, and smiled at the corner of his mouth: "The Mr. Han you mentioned has resigned last month and was fired by the board of directors."

Everyone's heart trembled, it seems that Donghuang is determined to ease the relationship with Hongyi this time?

Only Mr. Qiu was disdainful. He couldn't understand it better. It's just that the board of directors finally woke up. The current Donghuang is not a P for the Chinese game industry, so they finally panicked. But even so, they didn't encourage and One can imagine the complicated state of mind when contacted by Hong Yi.

Seeing that the first person who rushed out became cannon fodder, no one said anything at last, but the employees who supported the contact with Hongyi were eager to try, and soon some people raised their hands:

"Mr. Qiu, how many people can we go to the carnival?"

"They gave five places, because the booth we applied for was not big, but the reviewer I asked, they said that they can pay to upgrade to a medium booth, and then they can bring up to 20 people to enter the venue. Those who want to go there To sign up with me, you need to submit your personal information.”

"Long live!"
