“After making an appointment, Jiang Huan arrived at Thunderbolt Entertainment’s headquarters on time. ”
“””This building is huge …”” ”
!!“Jiang Huan raised his head and looked at the building called “”Thunderbolt touches the ball””. He felt that this place was so Grand. If he worked here, he could brag about it for three years and post it on his WeChat moments every day. ”
“He couldn’t just show off the building in his moments, so he posted a picture of the sky above Imperial City and ‘conveniently’ captured the building of Thunderbolt entertainment with a caption, such as “”Clock in for work! The sky in the imperial capital is so blue today!”” ”
“As for when the sky in the imperial capital would turn blue … That was easy to say. As long as the meeting was held in the imperial capital, the sky would definitely be blue. ”
“In fact, after staying in the capital for a long time, one would realize that there were blue skies and white clouds quite often in the capital, not a haze every day. ”
Jiang Huan waited at the entrance for a while and watched the players enter the first floor as if they were shopping. He was very envious.
“After waiting for less than five minutes, the person in charge of reception arrived. ”
“This was Zhou Peng, an employee of Thunderbolt Entertainment’s testing team. Jiang Huan had already talked to him over the phone and had a brief discussion. ”
“Jiang Huan was a little surprised to see Zhou Peng in person because he was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts. Other than the Thunderbolt entertainment badge on his chest, he didn’t look like he was here for work at all. He looked more like a student or an ordinary tourist. ”
“However, this made Jiang Huan feel much more comfortable because he was also wearing a T-shirt and jeans. ”
“Some companies especially liked to let their employees wear formal clothes to work. It was fine if it was financial and public relations companies who made such a request, but some inexplicable companies also made such a request, which made Jiang Huan speechless. However, Thunderbolt entertainment was a gaming company, after all, so they were obviously more relaxed in this aspect. ”
“Moreover, Zhou Peng did not put on any airs at all. He was all smiles, just like an ordinary good friend or senior. This naturally made Jiang Huan feel a sense of familiarity. ”
“””Come, this way.”” ”
Zhou Peng chatted with Jiang Huan as he led the way.
“Thunderbolt Entertainment’s headquarters building had a special employee elevator that went directly to the office area, which was separate from the player experience area. ”
“Along the way, Jiang Huan saw more employees of Thunderbolt entertainment. They were all young and good-looking men and women, and all of them were dressed up very well, looking very happy. ”
“””This kind of working environment is indeed very comfortable. I’m happy to work here.”” Jiang Huan thought to himself. ”
“Jiang Huan had heard a lot of rumors about Thunderbolt entertainment. One of them was that Thunderbolt Entertainment’s employees were very happy, because they could get a high salary and do what they liked. ”
“Moreover, unlike other game companies, they didn’t work overtime often, so everyone had a rich private life. They had the time and energy to dress themselves up and dress up very well. ”
“Of course, not everyone was like this. There were some unkempt employees, but these people were often the big bosses who hid their true colors … ”
“Basically, the top talents of the game industry from all over the country, or even the world, were gathered in this building. If you knew the best designers in the country very well, you might find many opportunities to get autographs if you came here. ”
“Jiang Huan didn’t know many famous designers, but he felt envious of the people who came and went. ”
Zhou Peng brought him inside and came to a special testing area.
“There were spacious workstations with high-end computers for office use. Next to them were the top-of-the-line gaming cabins. Some of the testers were playing games in the game pods, while others were typing on their keyboards in front of the computer, probably recording various test data. ”
“Zhou Peng led Jiang Huan inside.””””Did you bring the medical report? Hand it over to me, and we’ll do a simple examination here. “” ”
“Before coming, they were required to bring their own medical report. Jiang Huan had already gone to a large hospital for a physical examination, but he still needed to do some in-depth examinations after coming. ”
“””There might be some slight discomfort during the examination, but don’t worry, it won’t affect your health in any way. If you feel uncomfortable during the process, you can stop at any time. “” Zhou Peng reminded. ”
Jiang Huan came to a specially-made gaming pod. This gaming pod was silver in color and had never been seen on the market before.
“After lying down, the hatch closed, and Jiang Huan fell asleep. ”
“He didn’t enter a game world. Instead, he felt like he had experienced a long dream. The dream wasn’t very good. Sometimes it made him happy, sometimes it made him angry, and sometimes it made him scared … ”
“She had experienced many complicated emotions, but when she woke up, she could not remember the contents of the dream at all. ”
“Jiang Huan was conscious while he was dreaming. Although he felt a little uncomfortable, he had no intention of stopping the dream. ”
“Jiang Huan had heard that Thunderbolt entertainment had its own unique criteria for recruiting testers, and the exact criteria had always been kept a secret. However, one thing was clear. Most of the applicants had been rejected in the in-depth examination. ”
“It sounded a bit like a pilot’s physical examination. Very few people could pass it, but the specific rules were completely different. Although it was not as comprehensive as the medical examination for pilots, it seemed to be very strict in certain aspects, especially in the aspect of consciousness. ”
“After coming out of the game cabin, Jiang Huan was brought to the guest room and waited nervously. ”
“A moment later, Zhou Peng pushed the door open and entered with a smile on his face. ”
“””Congratulations, you’ve passed the test.”” ”
“””If you’re willing, you can start a one-month trial period. During this period, we’ll arrange for you to test some games, and your salary will be paid 80% of your official salary. However, there’s one thing I need to remind you of. We might arrange for you to test out some relatively ‘extreme’ games, so you have to be mentally prepared. “” ”
“””If you can’t complete the job requirements during this period, the probation period will end at any time.”” ”
“Jiang Huan was a little surprised.””Sure. But I want to say … Why are you so straightforward?”” Do you really not need to go through any more written tests or interviews?”” ”
“Zhou Peng smiled and said,””there’s no need. The previous tests have already tested many aspects of the content. You might not know this, but the passing rate for this test is less than 15%. Therefore, everyone who can pass the test is precious to us. There is no need for other written tests or interviews. “” ”
“Jiang Huan was very happy.””That’s great. I’ll come to work tomorrow.”” ”
“””Of course,”” Zhou Peng nodded. Later, there will be colleagues from the hr department coming to sign the contract with you. It’s a formal process. Our normal working hours are from 10 am to 7 pm. If it’s 8 am to 10 am, there will be free breakfast for the employees. If you’re willing to come earlier, that’s fine. “” ”
“””Alright!”” Jiang Huan nodded.””I understand!”” ”
“””Remember to bring your employee tag along when the time comes,”” said Zhou Peng.””Then, you’ll need to enter your fingerprint. The staff area in the entire building basically needs to use your fingerprint to open the door.”” ”
“Zhou Peng reminded Jiang huanquan of a few more things to take note of, and Jiang huanquan memorized them one by one. ”
The arrangements were almost done. All that was left was to wait for the hr department to come over and sign the contract.
“Jiang Huan asked again,””then, our daily job is to test the game. What are we mainly testing?”” Will there be anyone to teach me this?”” ”
“Zhou Peng smiled and said,””there’s no need to teach.”” “”Our main purpose is to evaluate if the latest game has any negative impact on the psychological state of the players, especially … The fear value. Therefore, you just have to play seriously and take notes. The relevant data will be generated automatically. “” ”
“””Fear points? We’re testing a horror game?”” Jiang Huan asked. ”
“Zhou Peng nodded.””That’s right. Horror games are a very important part, but not all of them. We’re mainly testing ‘experience’ games. Anything that can cause emotional fluctuations in the players is included. Touching, frightening, tormenting, and other more extreme experiences are included.”” ”
