Chapter 1668: Headquarters Building
A year later.
January 3rd, 2015.
Jingzhou City, Tengda Corporation’s new headquarters.
Tengda Corporation was established in Jingzhou City five years ago. No one would have thought that this small gaming company would develop into a famous giant company in the world in just five years!
No one would have thought that the entire Jingzhou City would change because of Tengda Corporation’s rapid development. Landmark buildings would rise from the ground in Jingzhou City.
Whether it was Thriller Hostel, amusement parks, e-sports bases, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Deposit Fitness, and so on, the landmarks were all related to Tengda Corporation, causing the entire Jingzhou City to change drastically!
Tengda Corporation’s new headquarters was the most magnificent!
When the plane hovered above Jingzhou, one would be able to see the huge building.
It was like a huge bagua formation. The main building in the middle was a huge taiji diagram. There were eight secondary buildings around it, forming the shape of the bagua.
Not long after this headquarters building was officially opened, many media came to interview and visit. Everyone was shocked by the unique creativity contained in this headquarters building.
It was also regarded as Boss Pei’s architectural design concept, cultural concept, and the deep presentation of the Tengda spirit.
At that moment, at the entrance of Tengda’s headquarters building, a new employee was looking at the huge and magnificent building in front of him in confusion. He was deeply shocked.
However, staff soon came to guide him.
According to Boss Pei’s previous recruitment plan, Tengda had four recruitment examinations every year. They were February, May, August, and November.
In February and August’s recruitment examinations, special talents were recruited. In May and November, ordinary talents were recruited. Both fresh graduates and people with work experience could apply freely!
Tengda had always given ample time to those working employees who came to apply for the examinations. After the long written exam and interview in November, they would leave a certain amount of time for them to settle the work handover of the original unit before officially joining Tengda.
This new employee had just arranged the handover of the original company. He chose to officially work at Tengda Corporation after the New Year’s Day holiday.
After the staff in charge of guiding him entered Tengda Corporation’s headquarters, the new employee seemed to have entered a huge park. He looked around, feeling unfamiliar and novel about everything here.
The staff in charge of leading the way had obviously seen this situation before. Every new employee entering the company had to be like a tour guide, introducing the structure of the entire Tengda headquarters building and the uses of various parts to the new employees.
On one hand, it was to allow him to understand the layout of the building and better adapt to the work here. On the other hand, it was also to use this opportunity to convey Tengda Corporation’s working concept and cooperate with the HR department to complete the ideological transformation of the new employees.
“There are eight secondary buildings around the headquarters building. They are also the eight entrances of the building. We can pass through this building and directly arrive at the entertainment area.”
“These eight buildings correspond to eight different directions and also correspond to eight different divinations. They are mainly used to provide life insurance for employees.”
“The lowest level of these eight secondary buildings is the staff restaurant responsible for the signing of meetings or other related matters. The middle level is the employees’ restaurant. The eight buildings represent different dishes that can satisfy the various flavors of the employees. If you want to eat any dish, you just have to go to the corresponding secondary building.”
“All of the mid- and higher floors of these secondary buildings are employees’ dormitories. The dormitories are managed in accordance to the hotel style. It doesn’t matter if you live in them for a short period of time or for a long-term stay. However, the company doesn’t allow employees to stay in the company long-term in principle. The new employees will be allocated to Sloth Apartments for accommodation. The living conditions are better than here.”
“The rooms in the side building are mainly for some urgent employees or some foreign visitors.”
“The four entrances of the entertainment area happen to be in the transport hub. It’s more convenient to enter from one side. Therefore, we will also enter from the entertainment area first. We’ll introduce the entertainment area to you first.”
“If you drive to the office in the future, you can experience the maze in the parking lot downstairs. I won’t bring you around today. That maze will only be interesting if you walk by yourself.”
The new employee looked confused and pleasantly surprised as he listened to the staff’s introduction.
He had long heard that Tengda Corporation’s headquarters building was different from other companies, but after the staff’s introduction, he realized that Tengda Corporation was constantly thinking about how to perform.
The eight surrounding buildings alone had so many tricks up their sleeves. Not only were there eight cuisines, but there were also internal hotels that could be moved in freely.
Tengda Corporation also had the nameless restaurant and Fish-Catching Take-Out’s signature food chain in its business. Naturally, the food in the company’s headquarters building would not be bad. Otherwise, wouldn’t that be destroying their own brand?
The new employee sighed. “If you work here, you’ll probably gain weight if you eat well and drink well every day.”
The staff sniggered. “Gain weight? You’re thinking too much. Deposit Fitness’ fitness membership and fitness quota had been arranged for you when you entered. These fitness quota cannot be default. It’s as important as a work task. I’ll definitely train you until you cannot move.”
“Not to mention that there are also regular scheduled Suffering Travels and Thriller Hostel adventures. At that time, your special training might last for three months. The first month would be to train your physical fitness in the indoor stadium and train your spirit in Thriller Hostel. The next two months would be to Tengda Corporation’s special training points across the country. It might be an isolated island or two months of wilderness survival training in the deep mountains and forest.”
“If you can gain weight after these training, I can only exclaim that you are talented.”
The new employee was shocked. Good lord, it was not easy being a Tengda employee!
In fact, he had heard that Tengda Corporation would arrange Suffering Travels for employees. However, it was said that it was mainly for the person-in-charge and the core employees. Why were new employees also included now?
The new employee felt a headache at the thought that he would be arranged by the person-in-charge of Suffering Travels who everyone would call ‘King Bao’ in the future.
After walking out of the entrance, the staff led him to the side to scan the QR code. Then, they each took a balanced car.
“The main house is very big, and it would take more time to walk. Our company encourages our employees to walk more, but if we are afraid of delaying time with some urgent missions, we can also choose to use the balance car.”
“The placement points of these balanced cars are all connected to the smart network and are mixed by the AEEIS artificial intelligence system. When no one is using them, these balanced cars will also drive the nearby placement points to charge according to the actual situation. The balance cars at different placement points might also divert to each other to ensure that they can meet daily needs. There will not be a situation where all the balanced cars are piled in the same place!”
“Therefore, don’t feel strange if you see balance cars lined up one by one on the road and go from one location point to another without anyone driving.”
“The design of these balanced cars can theoretically meet most of the time. If you really find that there are not enough balanced cars, you can also choose the small sightseeing cars in the building to publicize.”
“If you realize that there are not enough cars in the building, a large-scale celebration might happen. At this time, you can report to your superior and go home to work or take a break. This is written in the company system. Under any circumstances, as long as the working conditions of the employees are not sufficiently satisfied, the employees can reject work.”
The new employees exclaimed. Tengda Corporation was really wilful.
If there are too many people in the company, you employees should hurry home and rest. Don’t come to the company to squeeze and create trouble for the company.
Only Tengda Corporation could do something like that.
This new employee had never used a balanced car before, but this thing was not difficult to use. It had two handrails to hold it. He could drive it smoothly after adapting slightly.
The two of them walked on the balanced car and passed through the square and entered the main building in the shape of the taiji diagram at the entrance.
The huge open space between the main building and the secondary building was mainly made into a square and a green garden. There were also many sculptures of Tengda Games’ characters or some scenes in the game inside.
Many employees or passengers who came for the first time would take photos with their favorite game character statues and remember them. The decorations in the square and green park alone were enough to show Tengda Corporation’s rich heritage in the cultural field.
After entering the headquarters building, the first impression that this new employee had was that it was spacious and bright, as if he had entered a large shopping mall.
The two yin-yang fish eyes in the taiji diagram were in the elevator. However, this staff did not bring him to the elevator first. Instead, he came to the central atrium first.
If one looked down from the sky, Tengda Corporation’s headquarters building’s main building was like a huge taiji diagram. The line between the yin and yang was obviously separated. It was like a crack, connecting from the bottom up. One could see different floors and also increase the lighting, making the interior of the building more abundant!
At the center of the central atrium area of the entire taiji diagram was a huge scenic falls that divided the entire floor.
The water flow of the falls rushed down and converged into a huge pool at the bottom. One could hear the sound of the waves from the falls as they approached the pool. It was as if they were in beautiful nature.
Of course, there were also certain soundproofing measures around the falls so that these sounds would not cause disturbance to the employees who were working or playing normally in the work area or the entertainment area!
