To ascend, I had no choice but to create games

Chapter 69: Chapter 69 All Done (Third Update) 1

Having confirmed there were no issues with the report and tweaking some minor details, Qu Fangfang took her time fishing around.

She began by making herself a cup of coffee in the pantry, pretended to call someone but actually sneaked down to the coffee shop for a small cake, not returning to the office until ten minutes before five.

Seeing that it was almost time to clock out, she immediately tagged everyone in the company group chat and straightforwardly said, “Everyone, spare a moment before you leave, we’re going to have a meeting.”

Fang Cheng: “Is this meeting very important? Will there be serious consequences if we don’t have it?”

Qu Fangfang: “Mr. Fang, this meeting is very important. It’s about the pain points of our studio, the need to venture into a completely new track, and preparing to empower the employees, eventually forming an essential meeting for the industry cycle.”

Faced with a screen full of incomprehensible text, Fang Cheng felt as though he was reading alien script, almost ready to cast an “Immortal Spell” on himself to understand what it all meant.

After some thought, he said to Xu Qingling beside him, “Is she saying that this meeting isn’t actually a big deal?”

“I think so too. I don’t understand internet jargon, but I have a feeling she might not even be using it correctly. My grandfather always said that making simple things sound complex is foolish, but making complex things sound simple is a sign of talent.”

“And deliberately making simple things sound complex?”

“That’s a con artist.”

Fang Cheng nodded, feeling there was some truth to it.

Just as he was about to tell Qu Fangfang that it wasn’t necessary to have a meeting at this time, and that they could discuss it tomorrow, Xu Qingling suddenly looked at her phone and said, “Boss, that other operations candidate I mentioned to you is on her way.”

“Already?”

She’s a bit short on cash, heard that we pay during the internship phase, and hurried over right away. It’s perfect timing for Miss Qu to showcase her work before we interview the new staff member.”

In that moment, Fang Cheng felt Xu Qingling had arranged things well, though her smile was a bit fox-like.

After agreeing to Qu Fangfang’s request for an operations meeting, Fang Cheng immediately received a private message from the three planners, Huang Ping’s group, with surprisingly consistent content.

Does this count as overtime? If it does, we’re not attending.”

With a long sigh, Fang Cheng felt this resistance from within his team, epitomized by Huang Ping, was too strange.

Such a rare specimen, he wondered if it existed anywhere else.

He told them it didn’t count but they would get overtime pay. The three planners immediately came to the meeting room, cheerful and ready to eavesdrop.

The listening lasted an hour.

But it wasn’ t boring at all!

Qu Fangfang’s data analysis was profound yet clear, captivating not only Xiao Douzi, the math talent, but also Monkey, who had barely made it through nine years of compulsory education, to the point where even he could understand the meaning behind the data.

Rubbing the part above his neck, Monkey felt as if he was growing a brain!

Pleased with everyone’s reactions, especially Fang Cheng’s, Qu Fangfang knew she had secured her position.

She cast a covert glance at Xu Qingling, thinking to herself that being attractive was of no use; what mattered was capturing the boss’s heart.

And what did the boss need?

Of course, a flashy PPT!

Just as she was about to use the report to propose some of her own ideas and expand her authority, she heard someone knocking on the meeting room door, a familiar voice calling out:

“Sorry to interrupt, is this Fang Cheng Studio? I’m Wang Xiaoying, here for the interview.”

The familiar voice, the known name, the sudden shock caused Qu Fangfang’s face to turn pale, leaving her frozen in place, unsure how to react.

Instinctively wanting to stop her, Xu Qingling had already stood up, bowed slightly in apology, and then opened the door to the meeting room.

A delicate girl stood at the entrance, not very striking at first glance, but the longer one looked, the more she seemed like a wildflower in the mountains, with an underlying resilience hidden beneath her tender appearance.

She was dressed in a white T-shirt and a pair of faded jeans, her back damp with sweat, and she was still slightly breathless as she entered.

Gently shaking the other’s hand, Xu Qingling smiled and said, “Yes, this is

Fang Cheng Studio. Welcome, Miss Wang.”

“Are you having a meeting? Then I’ll first… Senior!”

Seeing that her acquaintance was the one chairing the meeting, Wang Xiaoying couldn’t help but call out, but then she immediately covered her mouth and looked apologetically at Xu Qingling beside her.

“So you two know each other, what a small world. Miss Wang, you’re here for the operation position interview, right?”

“Yes.”

“Well, Miss Qu is our operation director, and she’s currently in an operation meeting. To save time, let’s go ahead and interview while listening in.”

Hearing Xu Qingling’s arrangement, Qu Fangfang hurriedly raised her hand, wanting to stop her.

But at this moment, Qu Fangfang’s mind was a blank, and she couldn’t think of any excuse.

Her report was coming to an end, and all she had to do was to read out the final conclusion, and then the report would be complete.

This conclusion was the essence of the report and the most valuable part of it, but the moment she read it out, Wang Xiaoying in front of her would immediately realize what she had done with her results.

Then, give some other random conclusion?

But now Qu Fangfang was in total disarray, unable to even form a logical sentence, let alone such a conclusive statement.

At this time, Qu Fangfang was sweating profusely, and her delicate makeup was washed away by sweat, making her unrecognizable.

Even the most oblivious person could tell that something was wrong with Qu Fangfang at this moment.

Facing the doubtful gazes of everyone, she looked fearfully at Xu Qingling, seeking help, but she didn’t know what reason to give.

And at this moment, Xu Qingling’s face bore a appropriate smile, yet her eyes were exceptionally cold.

To shamelessly steal the fruits of someone else’s labor, to be a person without a single original thought, such a person was even worse than a workplace rat.

What infuriated her even more was the fact that such a person was actually trying to sneak into their studio and bring the inhuman work atmosphere of the e-commerce department with them; these reasons alone were enough for her to sentence Qu Fangfang to death.

Therefore, even though she read the plea for help, Xu Qingling had no trace of pity and instead stepped forward, standing beside the stiff Qu Fangfang.

Turning to the next page of the PPT, Xu Qingling stared at the text on the screen and read, “Therefore, the most important thing in the gaming field is not publicity, not promotion, but the players. Today’s players are becoming more rational, and they are more willing to pay for high-quality games. Our future development direction is to provide more high-quality games.” After stating the conclusion, Xu Qingling smiled and said, “That’s a very good conclusion, forming a nice closed loop with the preceding data and arguments.”

Indeed,” Huang Ping also nodded, “Looking at the current games, apart from some nostalgic games, most require certain innovations. The era of game oversaturation has arrived, but it also presents an opportunity for us.” After listening to the others’ opinions, Xu Qingling looked at Wang Xiaoying and asked, “Miss Wang, what do you think?”

“I think it’s pretty good.”

Seeing that Wang Xiaoying didn’t expose her publicly, Qu Fangfang felt like she had seen a savior, and she came back to life.

That’s right, Wang Xiaoying, that’s how you should be!

You’re just an ordinary college student, whereas I am your senior. You should listen to everything I say!

Later, I’ll just find an excuse to deceive you, then find an opportunity to let you go, shed a few tears afterwards, and you will remain my source of material, working for me for a lifetime!

Just as Qu Fangfang congratulated herself on Wang Xiaoying’s enough stupidity, she heard Wang Xiaoying say, “It would be even better if that sentence wasn’t written by me.”

In an instant, Qu Fangfang felt like she had been struck by lightning!

Looking at the trembling Qu Fangfang, Wang Xiaoying earnestly asked, Senior, didn’t you say that was your personal project and not related to work?

Why is it showing up in your work meeting?”

At that moment, Qu Fangfang knew she was finished.
