Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 595 What a genius!

Cheng Yi paused, his tone becoming much more serious, and said, "Right now, World of Warcraft is the strongest wolf. It's coming and will devour all the self-righteous sheep. But at the same time, it will also force you sheep who still want to survive to run like mad, to optimize gameplay, improve graphics, enhance services, and uncover deeper player needs."

Cheng Yi looked at Kong Feng and said, "If 'Honghuang Chronicles' doesn't even have the courage to compete with 'World of Warcraft,' it will eventually be eliminated by other games. If it can survive in this competition and even find its own differentiated advantages, then it can truly transform into a high-quality game that can stand the test of time, rather than just a flash in the pan."

"The group established a new company to operate World of Warcraft in order to professionalize operations and avoid resource conflicts and internal friction. But this does not mean that the group has given up on Primordial Era. On the contrary, the group has higher requirements for you, so that you can no longer make money passively, but have to fight your way out of real competition."

Cheng Yi's words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing some of the grievances and indignation of Kong Feng and the others, but also igniting their indomitable spirit.

Yes, why assume you're destined to lose? "Primordial Era" has its own unique features and a solid player base!

World of Warcraft has stunning graphics, but there are tens of millions of low-spec computers in Asia.

Moreover, not everyone likes 3D graphics. For example, Kong Feng can't play 3D games; he gets completely disoriented as soon as he enters the game.

Seeing the change in his subordinates' eyes, Cheng Yi finally said, "So don't underestimate yourself and think you're some kind of old hag. In the Momo Empire, the ones who can win battles are always the sweethearts. Whether you become a resentful woman or continue to be a favored concubine, show the group your results."

Cheng Yi's words left Kong Feng and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.

Cheng Yi knew all about their complaints on Momo Games.

Thinking about this, they couldn't help but feel a chill run down their spines.

This……

This CEO's informants are practically everywhere, both at home and abroad.

Kong Feng nodded slowly. Although the pressure was still immense and the road ahead was still difficult, at least he understood that the company's strategy was not to give up, but a more ruthless yet more ambitious way of cultivating talent.

Stepping out of Cheng Yi's office, Kong Feng took a deep breath and said to his team members, "Did you all hear that? The president said we're sheep, so let him see if we're sheep or wolves! Go back to the meeting and replan the update content. I refuse to believe that our strongest game company in Asia can't catch up with a foreign monk!"

The fighting spirit of the "Primordial Era" project team was actually ignited after Cheng Yi gave them a stern talking-to.

For Momo Group, this is a survival battle between a local sheep and a foreign wolf.

Cheng Yi is happy to see this kind of internal competition. He believes that the proof is in the pudding, and only companies that maintain internal competition can have the strength to compete with external enemies.

Just as the "Primordial Era" project team was inspired by Cheng Yi to fight to the death, another major piece of news also caused a great stir in the park.

The group officially announced that, in order to ensure the stable operation of the Chinese version of World of Warcraft, Mr. Cheng Yi, the group's president, will personally take the lead as the CEO of Thresh Games. The group is now recruiting three president assistants from the entire Momo Technology Industrial Park.

This announcement itself was already extremely explosive.

Momo Group President Cheng Yi personally serves as the CEO of a subsidiary, demonstrating the extraordinary importance he attaches to the World of Warcraft project.

What surprised and excited everyone even more were the recruitment conditions:

1. Must be extremely passionate about games and be a hardcore gamer.

2. Has a strong interest in and unique insights into marketing and promotion planning.

Once you join the company, you will not only be able to participate deeply in the operation and decision-making of the World of Warcraft China server project, but you will also receive a salary far exceeding the average salary in the park.

The announcement instantly ignited the entire Momo Technology Industrial Park.

The scene in front of the bulletin board resembled the Spring Festival travel rush, with the bulletin board under the headquarters building surrounded by layers of people.

Employees wearing various name tags and from different subsidiaries and other companies in the park craned their necks to push forward, their voices rising in unison.

"Holy crap, CEO Cheng is personally hiring an assistant? And a gaming assistant no less?"

"Love games? I've played everything from the NES to 'The Legend of the Primordial Era,' I'm incredibly awesome, this condition was tailor-made for me!"

"Do you think our administration department's gaming prince has a chance? He's always slacking off by playing games."

"That guy in the operations department, didn't he also start his own game information blog? I see he has quite a few followers, he'll definitely sign up."

"Damn it, I regret it. I should have played more games and done fewer practice problems back then."

Within an hour of the announcement being released, the related posts on the park's forum had already garnered thousands of replies.

Some shared their gaming experiences, some offered their marketing ideas for World of Warcraft, and some even directly tagged Cheng Yi, volunteering their services.

The human resources department, which is responsible for receiving applications and inquiries, is constantly on the phone, ringing from morning till night.

The questions asked are varied and interesting, but they all revolve around the core question: Am I qualified?
This craze swept through every corner of the park, from white-collar elites in the R&D building to technical workers on the production line, to waiters in the internet cafe downstairs, and even some founders of startup teams, all eager to become Cheng Yi's assistant.

The entire Momo Technology Industrial Park was thrown into an unprecedented state of excitement because of these three small job postings.

The combined power of World of Warcraft, Cheng Yi, and online games is immense.

Everyone was eager to try their luck, knowing full well that those three assistant positions were the key for ordinary people like them to reach the pinnacle of life.

Jingzhou, in a smoke-filled corner of an internet cafe.

Tang Yan was completely focused on controlling his character in the game, his keyboard clattering loudly, while the ashtray next to him was overflowing with cigarette butts.

His hair was greasy, and he was dressed casually, looking no different from the other young people around him who were addicted to the internet.

Only when they occasionally look up and glance at the game UI and market trading post on the screen will they reveal a shrewdness and calculation that sets them apart from ordinary players.

During his break, he habitually checked his phone, and a message from a colleague popped up: "[Brother Yan, quickly check the park forum! Momo Group President Cheng Yi is personally recruiting game assistants. You love games and know marketing; you're a perfect match!]"

Tang Yan scoffed and muttered, "Nonsense, would a big company like that even look at me?"

He was just a lowly intern editor in the NetEase editorial department, considered one of the worst performers in the Momo Technology Industrial Park.

She has a low level of education, is not good-looking, and is like air wherever she goes.

However, despite saying that, he still inexplicably opened the link to the park's forum.

When Tang Yan saw the details of the announcement, especially the two requirements of loving games and understanding marketing, his finger stopped scrolling.

His heart began to race uncontrollably.

Momo Group!

Cheng Yi!

President's Assistant!

World of Warcraft!
Each of these words struck a nerve.

An opportunity he had never dared to imagine seemed to be right in front of him. After much hesitation, with a "what the heck, might as well try" mentality, he opened the resume template and began filling it out with extreme honesty:

Name: Tang Yan.

Age: 26 years old.

Education: Tianfu University of Technology.

Work experience: Intern editor at the Web Arts Editorial Department.

Gaming experience: A long-time internet cafe enthusiast, a veteran gamer and unofficial game strategy consultant (in other words, someone who criticizes game designers).

Professional skills and self-evaluation:

A hardcore gamer with four consecutive years of immersive gaming experience in internet cafes, he is an expert in various game mechanics and player psychology. A self-taught marketing expert, he excels at low-cost, high-reach promotional strategies and has successfully planned several small-scale game-related online arguments, igniting discussions in online communities.

Having a keen sense of market trends, believing that even negative publicity can be beneficial, and being able to effectively grasp and guide public opinion...

He finished writing it in great detail and laughed at himself. If he threw this resume out, there was a 99.9% chance it would disappear without a trace, or even be considered idiots.

But with a mischievous glint in his eye, he sent his resume to Thresh's recruitment email address.

After sending the email, he tossed his phone aside and continued playing the game, almost instantly forgetting about the incident.

The next morning, Cheng Yi's desk was piled high with printed job applications.

This time, he didn't let the HR department do the initial screening; instead, he did the screening himself.

Cheng Yi patiently examined each item carefully, and when he found one that was good, he set it aside.

Even if these people fail to get the assistant position, they can still become part of the Thresh game operations team.

Most people who can work at Momo Technology Industrial Park have prestigious university backgrounds and impressive resumes.

But soon, he saw a resume with a unique style that was like a mudslide.

"Four years of internet cafe addiction? A self-taught marketing expert?" Cheng Yi was stunned when he looked at Tang Yan's resume.

He didn't think the resume was particularly good. The content clearly showed a nonchalant attitude. If it were anyone else's name, he would have thrown it in the trash long ago.

However, the name, age, and educational background on the resume touched Cheng Yi.

Tang Yan?

Upon seeing this name, Cheng Yi suddenly felt a sense of absurdity.

In his past life memories, this guy named Tang Yan was definitely a severely underestimated marketing genius and product fanatic.

This guy founded Momo Technology, which, with its unique positioning and highly aggressive ground promotion and marketing methods, actually carved out a bloody path in the social networking field dominated by giants. Its popularity once made even the core social products of the Tencent empire feel a chill down their spines.

This guy's insight into human nature, especially the psychology of young users, has reached an almost abnormal level of accuracy.

He never expected to run into the person in question here.

This is quite awkward.

"Let's choose him." Cheng Yi almost without hesitation picked up his pen and circled Tang Yan's resume. He then said to Li Weiwei, who was waiting beside him, "Tell this person to come see me this afternoon."

Li Weiwei took the resume and, after reading its contents, almost doubted that she had misheard. She then asked to confirm, "President Cheng, you didn't take the wrong resume, did you?"

"No, I'll get on it right away."

Li Weiwei took a deep breath and immediately started making phone calls.

At this moment, Tang Yan was still immersed in a beautiful dream, dreaming of being selected by Momo Group, when he was unexpectedly awakened by a series of urgent cell phone rings.

He fumbled and picked up the old, secondhand phone; the screen displayed an unfamiliar phone number.

"Hello? Who is it?" he answered irritably, his voice hoarse.

"Hello, is this Mr. Tang Yan?" A very professional female voice came from the other end of the phone.

"It's me, what do you want?" Tang Yan was taken aback; he was uncomfortable with such a formal tone.

"Hello Mr. Tang, this is Li, the assistant to the president of Momo Group. Your resume has been approved. We are officially notifying you to come to Momo Group headquarters for an interview this afternoon. I will send you the address and time via text message later. Can you come this afternoon?"

"...Huh?" Tang Yan was instantly dumbfounded.

His first thought was, "Which bastard is playing a prank?" How could a loser like him, who just coasted along in the editorial department of NetEase and spent most of his time in internet cafes, possibly receive a call saying he passed the interview?
“You heard me right, Mr. Tang.” The other person’s tone remained calm, yet carried an unquestionable authority: “Please confirm whether you can come for an interview this afternoon.”

"Yes, yes, yes..." Tang Yan recovered from his daze and immediately answered.

Who cares if it's a prank or not? Anyway, he doesn't have anything to be fooled about.

Even after the call ended, Tang Yan remained in the same position as when he answered it, frozen on the bed like a statue.

The rented room reeked of instant noodle boxes and cigarette butts, dirty clothes were piled up in the corner, and the computer screen still displayed the interface of the game Fantasy Westward Journey.

"If this is true, then why did they choose me? What have I done to deserve this?" He grabbed his messy hair and paced back and forth in the small room. "World of Warcraft! It's World of Warcraft! What if I mess it up? I've never even led a team before..."

At 1 p.m., Tang Yan arrived at the Momo Group headquarters building half an hour early, following the location provided in the text message.

Standing in the magnificent headquarters lobby, Tang Yan felt like a beggar who had mistakenly entered a palace, his palms sweating with nervousness.

A short while later, a well-proportioned female secretary approached and politely asked, "Hello, are you Mr. Tang Yan?"

"Ah, yes." Tang Yan nodded quickly.

"Please come with me. I'll take you to see Assistant Li first. Our president will see you shortly after his afternoon nap." The secretary politely gestured for him to enter and led the trembling Tang Yan into the elevator.

At this moment, Tang Yan believed it was real.

His resume was indeed approved.

Although he didn't know the reason, he was still very excited.

He has always had a special feeling for Momo Group, especially Momo Group's slogan "The encounter between strangers", which is just so well said.

He thought the person who came up with this name was a fucking genius!
