Chapter 12 The right tester


    There are very clear restrictions in the "labor remuneration and company profit distribution" section of the contract.


    The basic salary of employees of "Inverse Heaven Game" is: 80% of the highest basic salary they can get in other human companies.


    Why did Lilith make such a restriction?


    Obviously, this was a hole she buried deliberately.


    ??Because in Lilith’s view, the only value of “Counter Heaven Game” is to make games to harvest negative emotions, so this company does not need to make money at all.


    ??And the clause "When Nitian Games becomes the most valuable game company in the world, the contract will be automatically terminated" is also a blank check written by Lilith to Gu Fan, and it is impossible to achieve it at all.


    That''s why Lilith deliberately limited the basic salary so that Gu Fan could not recruit reliable employees.


    ?The more unreliable the employees, the worse the game, and the more negative emotions can be collected.


    But at this time, Gu Fan could use this rule to persuade employees he didn''t want to quit.


    Even if Lilith asked her afterwards, he would be able to refute her confidently.


    …


    Soon, the time came to 3pm.


    ?During this period, Gu Fan interviewed two more job applicants intermittently, but neither of them succeeded.


    The interviewer this time was a young girl. As soon as he saw her resume, Gu Fan started to sweat a little.


    Su Tong, female, 22 years old, fresh graduate from the Literature Department of Teito University.


    I have no student work experience or internship experience, but I have received a national scholarship for four consecutive years.


    ??This is a top academic!


    ?Gu Fan coughed twice and asked seriously: "With your grades, you should have been qualified for graduate school a long time ago, right?"


    Su Tong nodded, his voice clear and sweet: "Yes, but I have given up."


    She basically wears no makeup and wears very plain clothes, but she has bright eyes and white teeth, a smile always on her face, and a kind of vigorous vitality.


    ?This reminded Gu Fan unconsciously of the heroine of the morning drama from Neon Country, a energetic girl who was always optimistic and cheerful.


    “Why?” Gu Fan was a little confused.


    Su Tong said seriously: "Because I suddenly developed a strong interest in the game industry and want to join this industry to become an excellent designer and create fun games for players around the world!"


    Because of this reason, you gave up the opportunity to study for a postgraduate degree?


    Well, I don’t understand the world of academic masters.


    ?Gu Fan thought for a while and asked, "How many games have you played?"


    Su Tong''s voice weakened: "No, not many... about four or five models..."


    ??Gu Fan asked again: "How is your gaming talent? Have you ever played pesticide? What rank can you reach?"


    Su Tong’s voice became even weaker: “Huang, Huang Jin 4…”


    After seeing Gu Fan''s shocked expression, she quickly added: "It''s mainly because my playing time is relatively short! If I had more time, I think I should be able to reach platinum...oh no, diamond rank!"


    It can be seen that she had to go through some mental struggle before she said the words "Diamond Rank".


    In her opinion, this should be a very difficult state to achieve, and even a bit bragging.


    ?Gu Fan was silent for a moment: "If I guess correctly, this shouldn''t be your first interview with a game company, right?


    “You should have interviewed for a game planning position before? But you didn’t succeed?


    “Later, you also interviewed for a game testing position? Still no success?”


    "How do you know?!" Su Tong was a little surprised, and then she visibly shrank, "Am I really that bad..."


    ?Gu Fan didn’t know what to say for a moment.


    ?This kind of thing is really not difficult to guess at all.


    ?At this point in time, the best time for school recruitment has long passed. Su Tong made the decision to "give up the opportunity to obtain research guarantee" earlier.


    During this period, she must have submitted some resumes.


    But why didn’t they succeed?


    Obviously, this is a question that Su Tong himself is extremely confused about.


    Logically speaking, just the four words "Teito University" are already a powerful enough stepping stone to knock on the door of most companies in the country.


    But Su Tong’s situation is a little bit special.


    Her gaming experience is too little and her gaming talent is too poor. She does not meet the basic recruitment requirements of gaming companies at all!


    ??Gu Fan never thought that in a game like Pesticide, which is "the king of per capita", there would be people in Golden 4. How on earth is this possible? It''s simply an unsolved mystery.


    You should know that although there are two tiers, bronze and silver, in this game, you will not lose stars at all if you lose in these two tiers. In other words, as long as you play a few more games, you can get gold.


    Gold 4 is the lowest level of gold.?????Suddenly felt a little sympathy for her teammates who met her in the game.


    Could this be a "female college student" who is ten thousand times more terrifying than the legendary "elementary school student"?


    It’s really scary!


    For game companies, there is no fixed standard for recruiting fresh graduates. After all, there is no specialized game design major in China. But there is one thing: at least you must have rich gaming experience, and gaming talent is also a bonus.


    Because the former can represent this person’s interest in the game industry, while the latter represents his ability to understand game mechanics.


    Su Tong is obviously far from meeting the basic requirements of a normal entrant in both aspects.


    But she is a top student at Teito University after all. Isn’t this a bonus?


    It’s really not…


    ?Just looking at the academic qualifications itself, it can indeed be proved that she has a high IQ, and her major is more suitable for plot planning positions.


    But the problem is that the more elite you are from such a prestigious school, the more other jobs you can choose from and the better the salary.


    ?Most game companies offer novice planners around 3,000 or 4,000, and the salaries for testing positions are even lower.


    ??As for Su Tong, if he could find a job as a clerk in any big factory, his salary would not be less than 10,000 yuan.


    ?Obviously, these game companies are very self-aware. They know very well that Su Tong is not suitable for the game industry. At the same time, they also feel that even if they are recruited, she may run away at any time, so they all expressed their rejection.


    ?Of course, if Su Tong persists and invests in a few more companies, some companies may recruit her for the words "Emperor University of Science and Technology."


    But so far, she has not had good luck and has not encountered such a company.


    Seeing that the atmosphere was somewhat deadlocked, Su Tong hurriedly said: "Although my understanding of the game industry was very limited before, I am determined to persist in this industry and confident that I will do better and better! So I hope you can give me this opportunity, It’s totally fine to start with game testing!”


    ??Gu Fan thought for a while and asked, "What was the basic salary for the highest offer you got before?"


    Su Tong''s face turned slightly red: "No, no."


    ?Gu Fan was speechless for a moment: "It''s not limited to game companies, other companies also count."


    Su Tong thought for a while: "Do other companies count? I accompanied my roommate to interview with an Internet company before, and they offered me 8,000. My roommate said the offer was too low and refused to let me go.


    “Later, I only invested in game companies, and I didn’t receive any more offers.


    “Don’t worry, I have expectations for the salary, 3,000 is enough…”


    ?Gu Fan once again took the calculator next to him.


    “Return to zero!


    “8000, times 0.8, equals 6400.”


    He looked at Su Tong: "Then I''ll give you a basic salary of 6,400. After the game becomes profitable, there may be bonuses or other benefits. The position is test team leader, is that okay?


    “Although you can’t participate in the design work yet, you can participate in the entire process of game development and learn some relevant knowledge. How much you can learn is up to you.


    “If there is no problem, we will sign the contract.”


    Su Tong''s face instantly showed an expression of great joy: "Really? That''s great! Don''t worry, I will definitely work harder!"


    ??Gu Fan smiled slightly: "It''s okay. You don''t need to work harder. You just need to use your own ability to complete the basic testing work."


    Su Tong didn''t quite understand what this sentence meant. She always felt that there seemed to be something hidden behind Gu Fan''s smile.


    ?But she didn’t care, just took it as some kind of recognition and encouragement!


    “Then starting tomorrow, we will start developing new projects.


    “I wish us a happy cooperation!”


    ?Gu Fan is very happy that today’s recruitment work was successfully completed!


    …


    5 pm.


    ? Ren Yu was playing games at his place, and suddenly felt that he had forgotten something.


    What is it?


    By the way, this should be the time when the company called to inform!


    Ren Yu even thought of a way to refuse, but after waiting and waiting, it was almost six o''clock and the phone didn''t ring.


    “I don’t owe money on my mobile phone, do I?”


    ? Ren Yu is very confused, because everything points to the same fact: this game company, it seems, has no intention of wanting him!


    “It’s really inexplicable, it doesn’t make sense!”


    Ren Yu scratched his hair in annoyance and continued to start the next round.
