Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 705 - Leave all the Pressure to Old Ma

Chapter 705: Leave all the Pressure to Old Ma

Chang You gathered all the information and began to further optimize the details of the artificial intelligence voice assistant AEEIS after seeing Yu Pingan off.

One of the very important points was the voice of AEEIS.

Chang You had not been able to fully finalize the voice details of AEEIS.

Boss Pei had made the requirements for the voice of AEEIS clear: that it had no emotion and had a neutral mechanical voice.

However, there were also many types of mechanical sounds, and different types of mechanical sounds gave a world of difference to people listening to them.

There were actually many levels, from pure mechanical sounds to natural human sounds.

The pure mechanical sounds were the sounds of robots in some old movies. They sounded a little dull, hollow, without any tone at all, and they had obvious interruptions between words.

Currently, most intelligent voice assistants are working hard to move closer to the pure human voice and make the dialogue more natural through a large number of voice recordings.

Chang You was only able to roughly determine that the AEEIS voice should be somewhere between these two voices, but the specific extent to which it should be done was not yet finalized.

Pure mechanical sound could well highlight the artificial intelligence attributes of AEEIS, but it might be inconvenient for users to use it. After all, pure mechanical sounds were laborious to listen to. It wasn’t easy to hear clearly and did not meet the AEEIS ‘easy to use’ and ‘efficient’ characteristics.

Therefore, the focus of AEEIS voice this time was to be as efficient and easy to use as possible on the premise of highlighting the characteristics of the personality, without affecting the user experience.

If someone was to consider the slightly poisonous tongue attribute of AEEIS, they could continue to add more features, such as speeding up its speech when they spat out the poison—which could highlight the attribute of ‘quick thinking’.

Of course, the specific tone to be used requires the staff to slowly adjust to it. There might be many kinds of plans, which would be finally decided by Chang You.

On the other hand, Chang You provided all these requirements to the staff and asked them to work hard in this direction.

October 27th, Thursday...

At Dream Realization Ventures...

He Desheng immediately got up to greet Pei Qian and Ma Yang as they walked in.

“Boss Pei, Boss Ma, he has arrived and is waiting in the meeting room.”

“Chen Yufeng has four years of testing experience in a laboratory in Beijing and worked for Shaohu Reviews for some time, but he left because he was dissatisfied that Shaohu Reviews accepted bribes.

“There is no problem in terms of professional quality. He also has contact with some specialized laboratories and evaluation agencies. It should not be a big problem for him to cooperate with Boss Ma.”

Pei Qian nodded. “Alright, let’s meet him.”

Pei Qian said that he would prepare a professional team Old Ma so he arranged for He Desheng to find a suitable candidate.

Fault-finding was a technical task, and the contents this time were not limited to the evaluation of digital products so professional knowledge would be more important.

Once the person in charge of the professional team was selected, he would search for professionals in various fields.

He Desheng knocked on the door lightly and entered when they reached the conference room.

Chen Yufeng quickly stood up.

He looked to be in his early thirties—with glasses and short hair—and gave off a very capable feeling.

He Desheng gestured for everyone to sit down after a brief introduction.

Chen Yufeng was a little nervous.

He was only small and transparent in the evaluation circle with no visible results before He Desheng came knocking on his door. The only thing he could show was that he had been responsible for several manuscripts at Shaohu Reviews, which was regarded by many as criticism.

Shaohu Reviews had influence in China, but its reputation was also very bad. Many viewers knew that they did things for money. It would be scolded every time a new video was released.

Chen Yufeng’s business acumen might be good, but it was useless to have only business acumen in this industry.

The evaluation industry relied on the trust of their influence. If there weren’t enough people paying attention to someone, it would be difficult to be seen no matter how good that person’s business acumen was.

According to He Desheng, the project leaders this time were Tengda’s Boss Pei and Boss Ma. There would be no shortage of attention, money, and other aspects. It was a good platform.

The key depended on whether Boss Pei and Boss Ma could be satisfied with them or not.

Of course, Chen Yufeng didn’t say that he would definitely join because He Desheng just told him that it was an evaluation project without any specifications.

He would have to reconsider if it was a project that did things for money like Shaohu Reviews. That would be disgusting.

Chen Yufeng stood up and handed his resume to Boss Pei with both hands.

“Boss Pei, this is my resume for your perusal.”

Chen Yufeng’s gaze swept across Boss Pei and Boss Ma at the same time.

Boss Ma was rather young; his face was so long...

Boss Pei was the same as in the video, so young.

Wait, that wasn’t right; didn’t they say this was an actor for Boss Pei?

Chen Yufeng did not respond for a short while. He was looking forward to what Boss Pei looked like, but he was looking at the actor who acted as Boss Pei?

There must be some misunderstanding here.

However, he didn’t ask too much; he just froze for a moment and quickly understood what was going on.

Pei Qian took the resume and flipped through it briefly: “I have read your resume previously, and I am quite satisfied.

“I am sure you are capable since He Desheng recommended you.

“Let me briefly talk about your tasks. If you feel that there is no problem, then I’ll let He Desheng cooperate with you to form an evaluation team and then start working on the project.”

Chen Yufeng was stunned for a moment.

Ah? Wasn’t that a little rash?

Generally, he and Boss Pei had never met and were not familiar with each other. What could he tell from the resume?

When interviewing job applicants in general companies, they would at least ask about the candidate’s past work experience in detail and talk about some specific business issues to gain a deeper understanding?

Moreover, most companies would have a probation period after the interview. If they were not satisfied with the candidate after the probation period, they could just leave. The company would not lose much.

In the end, Boss Pei skipped this stage directly?

Wasn’t Tengda a company famous for being difficult to enter?

Didn’t it mean that there would be written examinations, interviews, and Tengda spirit tests?

Chen Yufeng felt a little psychedelic. It seemed that the internal operating rules of the entire Tengda Group were very mysterious. Sometimes, it was very difficult to get a job; sometimes, it was very simple and completely baffling.

However, Chen Yufeng certainly wouldn’t ask too much. Of course, it would be good to be able to join the company directly, and he would still be the person-in-charge of the department. Where could he find such a good thing?

He was silently waiting for Boss Pei to assign his tasks.

Pei Qian coughed slightly: “Your task is very simple. You just choose a variety of products from the market, digital products, daily necessities... as long as they can be evaluated.

“During the evaluation, you should look carefully for the shortcomings and problems of these products and write a draft for Boss Ma.”

Chen Yufeng was stunned for a moment. “...just write the shortcomings?”

Pei Qian nodded. “That’s right.”

Chen Yufeng: “Choose any product? Will there be... whitelisted product? Tengda’s own products wouldn’t be on that list, right?

Pei Qian smiled. “Why would they not be on the list?

“Tengda’s products are no exception. They must be tested with even more stringency than other products!

“And you cannot take money from any company, regardless of whether they want to exaggerate their product or keep it silent about their product—just ignore it.”

Chen Yufeng opened his mouth slightly and didn’t know what to say for a while.

Was this Tengda?

Wasn’t it... just too hard-line?

When hearing this task, Chen Yufeng’s first reaction was not that it was outrageous... but that they were iron-hard, and their background was really hard!

If it was a general evaluation agency that dared to do this kind of thing, they would be afraid that they would soon be overwhelmed by the black manuscripts and would soon be ruined and lost in the long river of history...

Because of this behavior was basically smashing the jobs of various manufacturers.

It would be okay if it was the exposure of some not-so-famous manufacturers. Those manufacturers did not have so many fans and energy after all.

However, almost every big manufacturer had an army of fake reviewers. There were also a large number of fans even if they did not have fake reviewers. One would immediately face huge public pressure if one dared to pick faults.

Moreover, the other party would definitely try to dig the other’s dirt and attack each other.

Say that the evaluation agency did not accept bribes, but it would still be difficult to guarantee that it would never make a mistake, right? If something were to go wrong, the other party would definitely fight to the end, desperately discrediting. When the public opinion and the machinery were really activated, the situation would become completely uncontrollable.

Therefore, no one would do something like that because it was thankless and difficult to survive, let alone make money from it.

Chen Yufeng felt a lot of pressure and swallowed, “Boss Pei, this job is really challenging for me.

“It is difficult to guarantee absolute objectivity in evaluation. Some people will think that a shortcoming is acceptable while there would be others who could not accept it completely. There will definitely be a certain degree of subjectivity.

“If there is a mistake or just an improper wording where someone caught a language loophole, it may be hated by the entire internet.

“If mistakes in my work bring public opinion pressure or bad influence to Tengda Group, it will be difficult for me to bear the consequences...”

Pei Qian sniggered inside.

Huge public opinion pressure?

That’s great!

I was still worried that no one was able to criticize me!

Pei Qian smiled slightly: “Well, it is inevitable to make mistakes. Once such mistakes occur, they must be borne by the company.

“First of all, we must proofread more. Some controversial and subjective issues should not be mentioned as much as possible. We are not afraid of criticism. The main reason is that we should not mislead our audience.

“It will still be based on the shortcomings and problems of the products.

“If something went wrong, you should apologize right away. It’s no big deal. You should apologize, clarify, and compensate.

“As for the public opinion of the whole network, there is no need to worry about this. Boss Ma will be there even if the sky falls. Any pressure from public opinion will just go to his Weibo.”

Pei Qian had never doubted Old Ma’s ability to take pressure.

This person did not have many advantages, but he had a good mentality. He would not swell no matter how bad the results he obtained were, and he would not collapse under pressure. This might be the advantage brought by the lack of IQ.

Chen Yufeng looked at Boss Ma suspiciously.

Ma Yang slammed his chest: “Yes, I can stand up to any pressure; these are all minor problems!”

His expression was deadly serious.

Chen Yufeng hesitated for a moment and said: “Okay, then, I will try. But... I hope I can quit at any time if I really can’t cope with this job.”

Pei Qian nodded. “Sure, no problem!”

He was totally not worried about Chen Yufeng leaving halfway.

If that happened, it meant that the goal of losing money had been achieved, and Pei Qian would definitely try to keep him by raising his salary.

There was no problem that more money could not solve!
