MTL - After Playing the Fool and Marrying the Blind Villain [Transmigration]-Chapter 96
Weiyi Game Headquarters.
The assistant knocked on the door of the single-person office, and after getting a response, he opened the door and walked in. Before closing the door, he didn't forget to look around so that no one outside would notice the scene.
Gao Pingfeng, who was sitting on the seat, saw him like this and urged, "Come on, no one dares to eavesdrop at the door with a daytime cat."
The assistant came up and revealed in a low voice, "Mr. Gao, I have already found out that Pei Yi's second revision of the script has passed, and the shooting will officially start next Monday."
Gao Pingfeng frowned, "Really passed?"
At first, I thought the other party was trying to be brave, but I didn't expect it to take ten days and a half months to get it out? Could it be that there is a Gunners team behind him?
The assistant nodded for sure, and felt a little admiring, "Mr. Gao, how do you think he could remake and create a new script in half a month? And I don't think the production team's set has been changed much."
"Who knows?" Gao Pingfeng still refused to admit Pei Yi's ability, and just opened his mouth, "It must be foreign aid."
The assistant was uncertain about Gao Pingfeng's thoughts, "Mr. Gao, then we... no, what about your script? Will the company's senior management still use it?"
Originally, they thought that Pei Yi was just showing off verbally and would not be able to write a good game structure script at all when the time came, so they were also secretly working hard for the project handover these days.
But things backfired—
Now the top management is still continuing to cooperate with Pei Yi and ywy studio, so what about the script in their hands? Wouldn't it be invalidated?
When Gao Pingfeng heard the assistant's question, a trace of displeasure flickered in the depths of his pupils.
Originally, he persuaded Guo Guanghong to use the other party's instructions to leak the original script before the start-up, thinking that he would succeed Pei Yi and the project in a natural way.
But now you haven't caught anything, and you've been busy for nothing?
He has worked so hard to prepare for so long, how can he hope that his hard work will go to waste?
Gao Pingfeng suppressed the unwillingness and anxiety in his heart, and pretended to be calm on the surface, "What's the rush? You have to learn to wait patiently in everything you do. I got this position overnight?"
The assistant is used to working in the workplace, and praised him, "Of course not! Looking at the entire headquarters, who doesn't know that Mr. Gao, you are one of the most qualified old employees."
Gao Pingfeng seemed to emphasize with emotion, "After this week, it will be fifteen years. Tell me, how many fifteen years can there be in one's life?"
"Yes, Mr. Gao, Mr. Guo thinks highly of you..." The assistant continued to flatter, and lowered his voice, "I see your position in the company, and I will continue to go up."
Gao Pingfeng was delighted to hear it, "You kid, work hard, you will be indispensable at that time."
The assistant should say loudly, "Hey! Thank you, Teacher Gao!"
"Okay, don't pretend to be good with me!"
Gao Pingfeng stopped talking, "Hurry up and contact the two gunmen again, and change the script I proposed. I will discuss it with Mr. Guo later."
Qu Yi and Ning Jing look down on his project and insist on cooperating with Pei Yi, but it doesn't mean that he has no chance to get a share of this market!
An enemy of an enemy is a friend.
He was promoted by Guo Guanghong, as long as the other party does not fall, he still has a chance!
Gao Pingfeng thought about it, and reopened his laptop to prepare for work.
Suddenly, a series of messages were sent from the work list to remind: "Mr. Ce Gao, please come to my office, I have something to talk to you about."
"Ning Jing?"
Gao Pingfeng frowned slightly, he couldn't figure out what the other party was looking for for him.
However, the duties of the two of them are here, so he had no choice but to temporarily put down his work plan, get up and walk out of the office.
…
Three minutes later.
Gao Pingfeng sat across from Ning Jing's desk, smiling calmly, "Boss Ning, are you looking for me?"
Ning Jing looked up at him and continued to sign her own documents.
Gao Pingfeng felt the other party's deliberate neglect, and frowned in displeasure.
Before he could get angry, Ning Jing casually said, "Gao Pingfeng, from now on, you will be fired from the company."
"..."
The word dismissal was like a thunderbolt, which suddenly struck Gao Pingfeng's head.
His eyes widened in disbelief, "What did you say?!"
Ning Jing closed the file and didn't mind repeating again, "You, have been fired."
"Why? I have stayed at Weiyi for fifteen years! Do you know what this concept is? If you say you are fired, you will be fired?"
The more Gao Pingfeng talked, the more he couldn't maintain his "easy to get along with" mask, and instead asked repeatedly—
"I am the game chief strategist of "Seventeen Days". Now that you have fired me, what are you going to do with the next game season?"
"Other high-level shareholders will agree? Ning Jing, how long have you been in Weiyi? Don't think that sitting in the position of general manager can be lawless?"
"If Weiyi dares to fire me so vaguely, I will immediately complain to the relevant department!"
Faced with Gao Pingfeng's output, Ning Jing completely lost the sympathy she had deliberately kept in the past.
"Gao Pingfeng, don't take your working years as an issue. How did you get here in the past fifteen years? Don't you know?"
"..."
Gao Pingfeng's expression changed, he choked his breath, "What do you mean?"
Ning Jing pierced his mask of an old employee, "In the past ten years, you dawdled in the game planning team and only picked some easy small projects to participate in. You can just mess around and have no self-motivation."
The so-called salary change is just an upward adjustment made by Weiyi according to the market size.
"Five or six years ago, the company encountered a major crisis since its establishment and had to lay off some employees. In order to stay and continue to make a living, you accidentally joined Sister Chen Min's project team."
That is to say, with ten years of service, he got a position as a deputy planner.
"You feel your own conscience and say, "Seventeen Days" went from the establishment of the project to the copyright to the translation to the second re-production, which one was not Chen Min who watched it personally?"
Gao Pingfeng has done things, but that is the task he should do as the deputy planner of the project!
After the explosion of the "Seventeen Days" game, the status of the entire game project team has risen accordingly, and the year-end dividends have been soft, and since then—
Gao Pingfeng's reputation as an "old employee" took the opportunity to get out.
After the original chief planner, Chen Min, fell ill, her position was temporarily vacated, and the shareholders' board of directors had been considering a new candidate for a long time.
At that time, Guo Guanghong took the opportunity to take advantage of Gao Pingfeng's "deputy chief planner" appreciation rationality, coupled with his own status as an executive director, made him lucky to become the current chief planner.
Ning Jing does not deny Gao Pingfeng's time and youth for the company, but his ability is not worthy of his current position at all!
"You know that since you took over "Seventeen Days", there have been more and more plot controversies in the game, the overall score has also been declining, and the number of new player registrations has dropped again and again!"
Ning Jing sharply pointed out the facts, which made Gao Pingfeng blush again.
"Do you think you are irreplaceable? Let me tell you the truth, Sister Chen Min is coming back, and Sun Chenglang from the planning team can also be alone."
How could Gao Pingfeng be willing to lose his iron job and settle for the next best thing, "Even if the position of general policy can be returned to Chen Min, then why do you fire me like this? You have to give me a reason!"
"reason?"
Ning Jing laughed when she heard it, "Gao Pingfeng, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? I originally wanted to save some face for you, but since you are not willing to accept it, forget it."
"You leaked the script with YWY Studio, right? Leaking secrets of the company's cooperation is already an illegal act, do you know?"
"..."
Gao Pingfeng was speechless.
His usual calm expression finally showed the embarrassment of "being slapped in the face", and he tried to shirk responsibility, "Don't frame me casually, how could I..."
"The matter of dismissing you was unanimously decided by the senior shareholders, and you will be sued!"
"You can call Mr. Guo and ask Mr. Guo to see if I'm talking nonsense or if it's true!"
Ning Jing picked up the signed document on the desktop, and was not in a hurry to rush Gao Fengfeng away, "Please go ahead."
The office door closed.
Gao Pingfeng was stunned for a long time, then hurriedly searched for his mobile phone and called Guo Guanghong.
One missed call, another missed call.
It wasn't until the third call was made that Guo Guanghong's impatient voice came out, "Hello, what's the matter?"
"What's up?"
Gao Ping gritted his teeth, "Mr. Guo! Ning Jing said that the company fired me? She wants to sue me! Is this a decision made by all the senior management unanimously?"
Guo Guanghong was silent for three seconds, and replied, "Old Gao, I have nothing to do with this matter."
Gao Pingfeng's face became more and more embarrassing, "What is Mei Zhe? Are you leaving yourself clean?"
Guo Guanghong on the other end of the phone recalled the ridicule and threats he received in public at the charity dinner two days ago, and all the depression that Zhengchou had nowhere to vent burst out.
"You have done something wrong, what can I do to clean it up?"
"Let me tell you, you are a blind person who has provoked people who shouldn't be provoked for your own benefit, and you still want the company to wipe your ass? Get out as soon as possible!"
drop-drip-drip-
The phone was hung up suddenly, declaring the ruthlessness of the superior.
Gao Pingfeng's expression changed several times, but he still couldn't accept the sudden news of his dismissal.
He felt more and more chest tightness and shortness of breath. When he got up and wanted to leave the office, his feet suddenly went weak—
bang!
It fell to the ground with the seat!
"..."
Gao Pingfeng covered his nibbling knee, the pain was so painful that he regretted bursting out in an instant!
From graduation to now, he has only worked in Weiyi, and he has been in a position praised by everyone all the way.
But now he was dismissed by the company unprepared, and he still has no reason to complain!
What's worse, if Weiyi finds the evidence for leaking the script, not only will he be discredited in the industry, but he may also be punished by the law!
destroyed!
Everything is ruined!
Lifting a rock to shoot yourself in the foot, what on earth are you trying to do!
…
When Bo Yueming, Lin Zhong and others arrived in the meeting room with a lot of food, Pei Yi and the filming crew had just finished the detailed discussion in the first half.
"Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Bo and Mr. Yi have prepared lunch and drinks in advance—"
Lin Zhong took the initiative to signal, and asked the takeaway staff to help put all the food on the empty table, "Everyone take it by yourself, you are welcome."
Bo Yueming never liked to deal with such occasions, but for the sake of his lover, he still took the initiative to express his opinion.
"The previous unexpected incident delayed the crew's time. Thank you for your patience. Please take care of Pei Yi in the future."
Kong Li already knew about the relationship between Bo Yueming and Pei Yi, and responded with a smile, "Mr. Bo is too polite, it will cost you money."
As soon as the words were finished, other staff also expressed their opinions in a friendly manner, "Yes, thank you, Director Bo, for your hospitality."
"Let me tell you, Mr. Yi is young and outstanding, and he looks very similar to Mr. Bo!"
Hearing the successive praises, Pei Yi couldn't help exchanging a tacit understanding smile with Bo Yueming.
"Let's eat first, and we will continue to discuss the details of the script in the afternoon."
After speaking, he walked out under the eyes of everyone.
…
The two returned to Pei Yi's exclusive lounge.
As soon as the door was closed, Pei Yi hugged her coquettishly, "Why are you here? You didn't even say hello to me in advance."
Bo Yueming hugged him tightly, "I want to support you again."
Pei Yi couldn't help laughing out loud, "Well, it's full, I saw several staff members' eyes almost fixed on you."
"Nonsense."
Bo Yueming pinched the back of his neck lightly, and sat down on the sofa with his own kitten, "I happen to have something to tell you."
"What?"
"The news from Qu Yi said that Gao Pingfeng has been 'fired' this morning, and an announcement will be made in the afternoon, and evidence will be collected for prosecution."
Pei Yi raised her eyebrows, "As expected."
Gao Pingfeng is an old employee of Weiyi, and signed an entry agreement with the company.
If Weiyi "fires" without reason, it will lose a large amount of compensation in possible labor arbitration, and it will also be questioned by netizens.
Now dismissing and suing is Weiyi's self-protection method, and it is also the end that Gao Pingfeng deserves!
"Qu Yi also said that Guo Guanghong is a shareholder of the company and cannot be disposed of at will, but at the shareholders meeting at the end of the year, he will find a way to completely weaken his rights within Weiyi."
Bo Yueming explained simply, and the meaning was clear enough.
After the unilateral power crush at the charity dinner, Wei Yi chose to favor Pei Yi and ywy in his own way, and apologized to them.
Pei Yi nodded, "Guo Guanghong is really annoying, but as long as I don't see him, I can turn the page."
Bo Yueming glanced at the closed lounge door, and asked in a low voice, "In Weiyi's situation, do you plan to continue working with them?"
As soon as Pei Yi heard this, she understood her lover's true thoughts, "Second brother, I've thought about it carefully, this cooperation must continue, but there is one and only one time."
"Although it would be more enjoyable to directly announce the termination of the contract, there is no need to pay liquidated damages for nothing."
In Pei Yi's opinion, if there is this money to be paid to Weiyi, it is better to use it for charity, or continue to engage in the game business!
Pei Yi continued to share her real thoughts and plans with Bo Yueming, "Ms. Kong Li helped me a lot a while ago, and there are still many staff members who are silently doing practical things."
"I don't want to disregard their hard work for the sake of my momentary counterattack pleasure."
Pei Yi also wants to use this opportunity to win over Kong Li's contacts in the film industry. After this wave of water testing is successful, their ywy studio can also independently invest and start filming.
Bo Yueming nodded and did not refute.
"Second brother, I am very happy and blessed that you can come to support me this time, but YWY studio has its own way to go—"
"I don't want to expand rapidly and encourage the growth of seedlings. Instead, I want to watch the studio grow slowly with Li Yuan and Sister Yang."
Bo Yueming responded, "I know, you have this ability."
Pei Yi smiled even more, "Although we alone cannot win the title of Weiyi's top company within two years, there must be a place for us in Huaguo game circle."
His voice was a little softer, as if he was discussing some little secret, "Also, it is conservatively estimated that Wei Yi can be replaced in four or five years."
Bo Yueming couldn't help laughing, and lightly rubbed the back of his lover's neck.
Pei Yi took the opportunity to lean into the arms of the person in front of him, raised her head and kissed his Adam's apple, and solemnly promised, "Second brother, wait for me, okay?"
"One day, my career can also become your confidence and support for indulgence."
When Bo Yueming heard Pei Yi talking about the future, he couldn't help kissing him on the lips, "Okay, I believe it, and I'll wait."
