Chang You was very confident in his plan.

Since Mr. Pei had stated that OTTO Technology’s ultimate goal was to acquire Pineapple, they would need to completely surpass Pineapple phones.

Pineapple phones’ advantage lay in the integration of hardware and software, with the system being their core competitiveness.

If their phones wanted to establish a firm foothold worldwide, the system naturally couldn’t lag.

Chang You believed that since the system was so important, they should take immediate action, starting now to collect user feedback and work toward building a better system.

Pei Qian fell silent.

It sounded… like Chang You’s suggestions were quite reasonable!

What should he do?

If Chang You’s team truly developed a very user-friendly customized system, it would undoubtedly greatly enhance the competitiveness of this phone.

No good, he had to do something.

Pei Qian kept his head down, silently continuing to play with the phone.

Earlier, he had only browsed through it briefly, not finding any major issues.

He needed to experience it more deeply!

Pei Qian specifically pulled up those features that weren’t part of the native Android system and tested them repeatedly.

Finally, a problem occurred.

An app crashed!

Pei Qian maintained an expressionless face, but inside, he was extremely proud.

What did I say? How could there be no bugs?

With Tang Yishu here, all kinds of strange bugs from every corner would be found!

Minister Chang, what do you have to say now?

Chang You froze instantly.

Damn, slapped in the face!

Just moments ago he was saying the system was stable with no bugs, talking about all those future plans, and then the next second, a bug appeared…

But Chang You quickly regained his composure.

“Mr. Pei, don’t mind it.”

“This is, after all, a test version. The occasional appearance of a bug is normal and reasonable.”

“You’ve been browsing for so long and only just managed to find one bug. This is enough to prove the completeness and stability of this version.”

“Later testing will certainly… holy shit?”

Before Chang You could finish his internal monologue, another program on the phone crashed, causing him to instinctively blurt out a curse.

He had nothing more to say.

Chang You somewhat regretted speaking too soon!

He had just finished boasting about the system’s stability when several bugs appeared in succession. What could he do now?

He didn’t dare explain anymore. At this point, any explanation would seem like passing the buck.

He could only silently bear Mr. Pei’s anger.

Pei Qian had put in great effort to finally find three or four bugs, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Phew, that was close.

If he couldn’t find any bugs, where would he put his old face?

If Chang You became too inflated, who knows what he might do?

This was perfect. With these bugs, he could use them as an excuse to guide Chang You down the wrong path.

Pei Qian cleared his throat lightly: “I completely agree with your views on the system.”

“In the future, as phone designs become increasingly homogenized, having a user-friendly system will be one of the core competitive advantages for phone brands.”

“But don’t be too ambitious—you must stay grounded!”

“No matter how many functions a system has, what’s the use if its stability is poor?”

“First, resolve the stability issues, ensure the most basic experience, then consider the other issues you mentioned.”

“Before the phone comes out, don’t add any extra system functions to otto os. Just maintain the current basic functions.”

“Use all other time to fix bugs, improve system stability, or make some detailed optimizations.”

Chang You had no power to refute and could only silently nod: “Yes, Mr. Pei, I understand.”

In Chang You’s view, spending so much time just fixing bugs and making detail optimizations was a bit wasteful—they could definitely develop some system functions as well.

But since Mr. Pei had already spoken, he could only comply.

After all, this demonstration could hardly be called successful. With so many bugs appearing, Chang You felt he had no right to argue.

December 9th, Thursday.

Morning.

At Hengtou Games.

Wu Bin had just finished his work and habitually opened his email to see if there were any new messages.

His eyes quickly scanned the email list, and suddenly, Wu Bin’s eyes lit up.

An email from Tenda!

He hurriedly clicked on it and found that it was an interview notification.

This meant he had passed the written test!

An indescribable sense of happiness instantly went to Wu Bin’s head. He almost jumped up from his seat in excitement.

He couldn’t believe he had passed!

The morning questions had been so difficult that Wu Bin had been quite dejected after finishing them, almost not wanting to take the afternoon session.

However, being a seasoned professional with years of experience, he had enough mental fortitude.

After stabilizing his emotions a bit, he continued to fight through the afternoon session.

As a result, the professional knowledge questions in the afternoon had turned out to be unexpectedly simple…

This had made Wu Bin very confused, but it also made him even less hopeful about the exam.

The morning questions were difficult, and he felt he probably couldn’t outperform those college students; the afternoon professional knowledge questions were too simple, making it hard to differentiate himself from those students.

Thinking about it this way, the written test results probably wouldn’t be too optimistic…

Fortunately, after a few days of anxious waiting, the interview notification had finally arrived!

His phone vibrated gently, and Wu Bin glanced at it. The interview notification SMS had arrived.

The content of the email and text message was the same, just to ensure candidates wouldn’t miss the email.

Wu Bin immediately went to Tenda’s recruitment website to confirm the interview arrangements.

But after completing all these steps, Wu Bin began to worry again.

Originally, he hadn’t had much hope for the written test, so he hadn’t thought about the interview.

But now, Wu Bin started to feel concerned.

If it were a normal interview, Wu Bin would be very confident because his resume was quite impressive. Compared to those college students, he definitely had an advantage.

However, Tenda’s recruitment website clearly stated that Tenda’s interviews were completely different from other companies.

Fixed questions, standard answers, and cross-interviews by various department heads.

It wasn’t guaranteed that he would pass!

Wu Bin wanted to work at Tenda.

If possible, he wanted to find a Tenda employee to get some information, to see how to prepare for the interview, and what style the interviewers preferred.

As the saying goes, never fight a battle without confidence.

The more information he had, the better his chances of success.

But Wu Bin didn’t know any Tenda employees.

After thinking it over, he thought of someone.

Hao Qiong, whom he had tried to poach before, was a Tenda employee, wasn’t he?

Although he was at the Shangyang Games, he should still know some inside information about Tenda, right?

Thinking of this, Wu Bin immediately found Hao Qiong’s contact information that he had previously investigated and sent a friend request.

Originally, he was worried whether the other party would accept, but fortunately, a few minutes later, the friend request was approved.

Wu Bin hurriedly gave a brief self-introduction, then very sincerely stated his question.

Soon, Hao Qiong replied.

“What the interview is specifically like… I don’t know.”

“When I joined, there weren’t so many procedures. I just had a simple chat with the department head and was hired.”

Wu Bin: “…”

That’s discouraging!

Why did this guy get hired after just chatting for a bit, and even got continuous raises, while for me, I have to go through five hurdles and six barriers, written tests, interviews, and even pass a Tenda Spirit Compatibility Test?

This world is just too unfair!

However, Wu Bin also knew that he was the one asking for help now, so he could only suppress the complaints in his heart and continue to seek advice.

“Bro, just help me out. Maybe we’ll become colleagues in the future!”

“Bro, which department are you in now? Are you still at Shangyang Games? Why don’t you ask your department head? Maybe he’ll be responsible for the interviews too.”

“I’m not asking for much, just a little hint would be enough!”

Soon, Hao Qiong replied again.

“To be honest, I’m the department head now… But I haven’t been assigned any interview tasks, so I really can’t help you…”

Wu Bin: “???”

After reading this message twice, he almost fainted!

He still remembered the last time he chatted with Hao Qiong about his career prospects.

Wu Bin had said that Tenda was full of talented people, and Hao Qiong might never get his chance.

However, how much time had passed? Hao Qiong had already been promoted to department head!

This was too much!

He was upset, but he still had to maintain a smile.

Wu Bin felt like he had eaten a ton of lemons, his heart filled with sourness.

“Bro, so which department are you in charge of now? Shangyang Games?”

The reply took a bit longer this time. After about a minute, Hao Qiong finally replied: “I’m not quite sure how to explain this to you.”

“Even my partner and I are completely confused about the situation.”

“To be honest, I’m not at Shangyang Games anymore. I’m now in charge of a haunted house project.”

“Sounds surreal, doesn’t it…”

Wu Bin was stunned, then breathed a sigh of relief.

You scared me! I thought it was some great project!

If he had been promoted to head of Shangyang Games, that would indeed be worth being jealous about.

But, a haunted house project manager? In plain terms, that’s just being the owner of a haunted house attraction. What’s so special about that?

Just a small haunted house of one or two hundred square meters, likely to lose money year after year. How is that a promotion? It’s being marginalized!

Wu Bin felt much better.

However, the necessary courtesies should still be maintained.

Wu Bin typed: “That’s not bad either. Where is this haunted house located? How much are you planning to invest? I might consider coming to support you when it opens.”

Although the scope for development in this project might not be as great as in the gaming department, you should still maintain the right attitude. This is also a good opportunity for you to grow…”

Before Wu Bin could finish typing, Hao Qiong had already replied on his own.

“According to Mr. Pei, the first investment is estimated at ten million, with more to be added later depending on the situation.”

“Sigh, I still have no idea how to spend this ten million. It’s so frustrating.”

Wu Bin: “…”

His mentality collapsed.

He hadn’t found out any information about the interview, but instead had been shown off to.

Life was unbearable!
