After watching Qiao Laoshi’s video, Pei Qian was completely dumbfounded.

This wasn’t scientific!

He had thought He An’s long Weibo post was already ridiculous enough, but never imagined something even more outrageous existed!

He An had at least focused most of his energy on explaining the game “Struggle,” which was relatively acceptable to Pei Qian.

After all, “Struggle” was an interactive movie-type game with a huge investment and a long payback period. Even if players bought it frantically during the current settlement period, it wouldn’t make too much money.

But what was Qiao Laoshi doing now?

He had connected “Struggle” with all of Tenda’s other businesses!

In other words, the phenomenal game “Struggle” was essentially advertising for Tenda’s other industries!

Indeed, many players hadn’t purchased the game and chose to watch others play online, but these players were also paying attention to interpretations of “Struggle.”

So Qiao Laoshi’s video posted on AiLiDao quickly went viral. Released late at night, by the next morning, it had already been pushed to the top of AiLiDao website’s hot list!

As a result, those cloud gamers who didn’t want to buy the game found other consumption points!

Some ordered an automatic contradiction machine, some ordered Slackin’ takeout, some planned to go to Tuoguan Fitness, some booked train tickets to Jingzhou to experience the Thrilling Hostel and Slackin’ Internet Café…

In short, all industries in the Tenda Life APP were affected!

The money not earned from the game was about to come to Pei Qian in another form.

Pei Qian nearly fainted on the spot from anger.

This Qiao Laoshi, are you possessed?

How could you forcibly explain things this way?

Moreover, the plot hole in the “Thrilling Hostel” video had been filled by Qiao Laoshi!

Except that what Qiao Laoshi used to fill the hole was Mr. Pei himself…

The biggest problem now was that the claim “Mr. Pei loves haunted houses and extreme sports” would likely spread more widely, possibly to the point where everyone knew about it.

This was terrifying!

Especially that line “静则极简哲学抬杠机，动则鬼屋飞车大摆锤” (“Still waters run to minimalist philosophy contradiction machines, active waters run to haunted houses, roller coasters, and giant pendulums”), it was truly soul-crushing.

Pei Qian felt he was completely beyond explanation now and would never have anything to do with amusement parks and haunted houses for the rest of his life.

If he showed his face at an amusement park, countless people would surely invite Mr. Pei to experience the giant pendulum.

It seemed he would have to hide even deeper from now on, absolutely could not show his face, otherwise there would be mortal danger!

Pei Qian scrolled through the comments under the video and on the webpage, finding that with Qiao Laoshi’s video fanning the flames, the fire had spread from “Struggle” to all of Tenda’s industries.

Even long-silent departments like ROF Computer Assembly, OTTO Mobile Phones, and the Shared Phone Booth project all had voices rising.

However, these departments hadn’t all reported good news to Pei Qian.

It was precisely because all departments had good news that nobody wanted to disturb Mr. Pei.

After all, in the eyes of each department head, Qiao Laoshi’s interpretation was all arranged by Mr. Pei in advance!

Since everything was within Mr. Pei’s grand plan, why bother reporting good news? It would seem like taking credit for Mr. Pei’s achievements.

So, all department heads were busy accommodating the large influx of new customers without troubling Mr. Pei about it.

Now, everyone knew that Mr. Pei was a true thinker.

If he weren’t at the company, he would be thinking.

Interrupting Mr. Pei’s thinking at this time would affect the interests of the entire Tenda Group. Who would dare take that blame?

Therefore, when reporting to Mr. Pei in the future, everyone would certainly be more careful. Some trivial matters wouldn’t need to be specifically reported, taking up Mr. Pei’s time.

Pei Qian felt very melancholic.

Once again, he had the idea of asking an assassin organization for a price quote to eliminate Qiao Laoshi.

Although the system funds wouldn’t cover it, Pei Qian himself had accumulated some savings…

But this was just a passing thought, and he quickly dismissed it.

He could only sigh deeply, have the waiter bring over his laptop, and start figuring out how to urgently spend money during this cycle.

The waiter saw that Mr. Pei had just sat down and was already opening his laptop to work without even eating, and couldn’t help but marvel in his heart.

Mr. Pei was truly as everyone said, constantly thinking!

Qiao Laoshi had not deceived us!

…

In the afternoon, at Tenda Group’s Human Resources Department on the 16th floor of Shenhua Luxury View.

“Finally completed!”

Wu Bin and Cui Geng, two people, excitedly high-fived to celebrate.

More than four months ago, Wu Bin suddenly realized his mission during the Tenda recruitment exam: to provide more annotations for the existing Tenda Spirit!

The existing Tenda Spirit included three main items:

Efficient work, emphasis on innovation;

Obey leadership, independent thinking;

Work-life balance, long-term goals.

But obviously, this wasn’t the standard answer. It was a one-sided interpretation that couldn’t represent Mr. Pei’s true thoughts.

Moreover, it only provided guidance for Tenda employees.

So, for more than four months, Wu Bin and Cui Geng had been following Mr. Pei’s footsteps, interviewing many people about their views on Mr. Pei, and carefully identifying, screening, and compiling them into a book, making a comprehensive and detailed annotation of the Tenda Spirit.

They interviewed Mr. Li, Liang Qingfan, Qiao Liang, and Ruan Guangjian, and saw four completely different images of Mr. Pei from these four people.

In Mr. Li’s eyes, Mr. Pei was a business genius, combining both “cold” and “generous” qualities.

As a business genius who planned everything meticulously, Mr. Pei always remained calm, even cold, always making the most correct decisions, always putting Tenda’s interests first, and never acting on impulse.

At the same time, Mr. Pei was very good at collaborating with others. As long as they were steadfast followers of Mr. Pei, he would generously share benefits.

In Mr. Li’s own words, “The cunning of an old fox and the idealism of a young man are perfectly integrated in Mr. Pei.”

In Liang Qingfan’s eyes, Mr. Pei’s pursuit of artistry was ultimate and endless. Even if it might lead to the failure of Sloth Apartments, Mr. Pei didn’t compromise, not giving up his pursuit of ultimate art.

In Qiao Laoshi’s eyes, Mr. Pei was a person with a broad mind, even able to become close friends with some eccentric collaborators, capable of seeing problems from a more transcendent perspective.

At the same time, Mr. Pei was also an unconventional expresser.

This point had been articulated very clearly in Qiao Laoshi’s new video.

In Ruan Guangjian’s eyes, Mr. Pei was a conscientious client. He broke the vicious cycle of mutual distrust and zero-sum game between clients and contractors, establishing mutual trust.

From this point, it could be seen that Mr. Pei had broken this zero-sum game and built trust in three aspects:

Client and contractor;

Employer and employee;

Manufacturer and consumer.

It was now known that Liang Qingfan’s judgment had some errors, because Mr. Pei wasn’t only focused on the ultimate artistry of Sloth Apartments, but had also fully foreseen its success, just like the game “Struggle,” truly achieving a perfect unity of artistry and commerciality.

Mr. Li and Ruan Guangjian’s statements had some commonalities and could be viewed together.

And “breaking the zero-sum game” emphasized not only the attitude toward collaborators but also the dialectical relationship between immediate and long-term interests.

So, Wu Bin added new Tenda Spirit annotations on top of the original three main items:

Based on safeguarding Tenda’s interests, seek mutual benefit and win-win with other collaborators;

The perfect unity of product artistry and commerciality, maintains elegant pursuits while making profits;

Think about problems from a higher perspective, have a broad mind, break the zero-sum game, and strive to find ways to achieve win-win situations.

The first two points could be seen as an attitude and direction, while the third point could be seen as a methodology.

Comparing them with the original three Tenda Spirits and removing duplicate content, they were refined into six points:

Efficient work, more emphasis on innovation;

Obey leadership, more independent thinking.

Work hard, and more work-life balance.

Serve customers, a more artistic pursuit;

Be business-minded, more cooperative for mutual benefit.

Focus on the present, a more far-sighted vision.

The first three points could be seen as the Tenda Spirit that every employee must follow, while the latter three points could be seen as the Tenda Spirit for the entire enterprise in the business world and society, toward collaborators and customers.

All six points were refined from countless experiences, and each point taken separately had cases that could be explained.

Mr. Pei had always been using his actions to annotate the Tenda Spirit.

And this internal reading material annotating the Tenda Spirit, while explaining the meaning of each point, had also attached these cases at the back, allowing readers to better understand how Mr. Pei and Tenda Group operated, thus gaining a better understanding of the Tenda Spirit.

After a full four months, through Wu Bin and Cui Geng’s joint efforts, they finally wrote such a book.

It wasn’t a large volume, just a small booklet, but every word in it was meticulously crafted, truly worth its weight in gold.

For some reason, Wu Bin suddenly had a very chuunibyou idea, wanting to give Mr. Pei a title using fantasy novel expressions.

Pei, the Silent Expresser, the Lonely Thinker, the Pursuer of Art, the Breaker of Zero-Sum Games, the Interpreter of Tenda Spirit, the Pioneer of Healthy Living, the Dream-Focused Investor, the Adventurer in Peaceful Times, the True Master of Wealth, the Light of Domestic and Single-Player Games, Qian.

Although it seemed a bit strange, each title was very fitting!

As an easter egg, it would be printed in small text on the last page of the book.

Wu Bin let out a long breath, finally finished!

Although in the future, the Tenda Spirit might continue to expand, the Tenda Spirit summarized in this book should be enough for most Tenda employees to study for a long time.

“I’ve asked Ma Yiqun, and there’s an urgent publication service now. It should catch the next batch of book number applications, and in the most optimistic scenario, it can be urgently published and mass-printed within a week!”

“Finish Chinese Website will cover this expense, and we’ll strive to provide a copy to each core employee, so everyone can better study the Tenda Spirit!”

Wu Bin was very satisfied with his work.

Who says the Human Resources Department is just a dispensable department, a bootlicker department?

I am also contributing to Tenda and society!
