Chapter 661: Teacher Qiao Decided to Move!
Sloth Apartments, at night...
Qiao Liang saved the game progress, put down the handle, and landed on the sofa comfortably.
They were so comfortable!
He had lived in the Sloth Apartments for four days now. During this period, he completed a new video which caused an enthusiastic response.
Therefore, the haze that lingered in Qiao Liang’s heart for more than a month was finally gone!
Therefore, Qiao Liang had been playing games in the Sloth Apartments for the entire day today.
He had to say that the Sloth Apartments was equipped with game consoles and the 3A masterpieces from various foreign manufacturers which made Qiao Liang really experience what it meant to be happy.
Of course, the TV in the Binhu District was not the limited-edition huge TV in the Dawn of Prosperous City.
On the one hand, it was because the renovation price of each specification and the grade of the house was different. On the other hand, it was also because it was a limited edition. It was good enough to use it in the units in Dawn of Prosperous City.
However, even so, the TVs in the Binhu District were carefully selected. Both the size and display effects were great; there was a sense of reality playing these console games.
Ding-Dong.
The doorbell rang. Qiao Liang went to open the door and found that the dinner he ordered had arrived.
The exquisite and high-end food box was filled with a balance of meat and vegetables, making people drool.
Qiao Liang had an idea while devouring his food.
Could he... probably just move to Jingzhou?
He was a UP Master, a freelancer. Was he an idiot to struggle with the high rents in Beijing?
Qiao Liang had come to Jingzhou twice. He had stayed here for two to three months if he were to add both trips together. It was not strange to say that this was his second home.
Qiao Liang found that Jingzhou was the best choice for him after a little comparison!
Actually, the reason why he chose to rent in Beijing was that he was studying at a university in Beijing. He had some small results making videos during university. He found a job after graduating but was dissatisfied with it. Therefore, he resigned and became a full-time UP Master in his rented apartment.
To put it bluntly, he was just used to it.
He had been in Beijing for his university for four years, found his first job in Beijing, and got used to living in that city. It was very difficult for him to think of moving across cities.
However, Qiao Liang suddenly realized that he did not need to stay in Beijing after staying in the Sloth Apartments for a few days!
Take his rent for example. That small apartment in Beijing in the fifth ring was actually even more expensive than the Sloth Apartment.
However, the living environment was totally different!
The one-bedroom apartment that Qiao Liang lived in was not renovated; the bathroom had not been repaired for a long time. He did not like to clean so his room was always chaotic.
On the other hand, the Sloth Apartments had cleaning facilities and a butler. The layout of the house was specially designed by the designer. It would always be pleasing to the eye as long as it was always kept in its original state.
The TV and the game units especially warmed Qiao Liang’s heart!
Qiao Liang’s rented apartment in Beijing did not have a TV or a game console. The reason was simple; he wanted to buy such, but he felt it wasn’t necessary.
That was because he saved money to buy a high-end computer since it was required for editing movies and could also be used to play games. Therefore, it would be a waste to spend a few thousand yuan on system units and TV.
However, Qiao Liang discovered that playing console games on TV was really different from playing on the computer after staying in the Sloth Apartments for a while.
There were obvious big differences no matter whether it was comfort or immersion!
Looking at the meal aspects: Qiao Liang used to eat instant noodles when he was poor. However, he had upgraded to having the freedom to buy takeouts when he became more prosperous through making videos.
The takeouts in Beijing were also not cheap.
Of course, there were chicken chop and duck rice for a few dozen yuan, but it was hard to guarantee his health and hygiene if he were to eat that for the long rice. If someone like Qiao Liang had no economic pressure now, what was two or three yuan extra to eat Fish-Catching Take-Out?
Then, he looked at daily life and entertainment.
Beijing had concerts and large-scale performances such as ball games, dramas, etc., but it wasn’t that bad in Jingzhou either. He could watch GOG matches live; there was the Deposit Fitness, Fish-Catching Internet Cafe, Thriller Hostel, and a series of industries.
Qiao Liang suddenly realized that he could lead a much better life with the same amount of money!
Of course, as a super first-tier city, Beijing had many young people and plenty of work opportunities.
However, there were many young people in Jingzhou as well. There was an increasing trend, too. He also had many friends like Boss Pei and Tengda’s employees.
Moreover, as UP Master who spent most of his time at home, the living environment was the most important to him.
The more Qiao Liang thought, the more he felt there was no need to continue living in Beijing. He should just move to Jingzhou.
Qiao Liang immediately decided to buy a ticket back to Beijing the day after tomorrow, begin to sell everything in the rental house, and return it. He had to come to Jingzhou to stay at his earliest convenience!
Qiao Liang had more energy to eat as he thought about this.
He scanned the updates on Aili Island while he planned for his move.
The latest issue of the video still had a large number of fans leaving messages. The video had reached the top of the home page of Aili Island after all. It could only be said that it had broken out of its circle. Not only was the audience in the game zone watching, but the audiences in other areas were watching, too. That gave him another wave of soaring fans.
Qiao Liang took the trouble to watch the audience’s bootlicking and felt his appetite improve.
He suddenly saw new updates from Fei Huang Workspace!
Qiao Liang froze for a moment because he knew very well that Fei Huang Workspace should be preparing a video to expose the formaldehyde filled rooms recently.
However, he heard from Zhu Xiaoce that this video was not going to be released, right?
It was too fast if it was other videos, right?
It would not match the meticulously crafted style of the Fei Huang Workspace.
Qiao Liang opened the video with some confusion. Huang Sibo’s face appeared.
Qiao Liang was a little surprised. “Eh? When did he get so tanned?”
In his impression, Huang Sibo had normal Chinese skin—not so fair but neither was he so tanned.
Yellow Sibo[1.’Huang’ in Huang Sibo is the same character as Yellow.] has now become Hei Sibo[2.’Hei’ is the same character as Black]. It looked a little strange.
“Was the lighting not done well?
“That wasn’t right; the lighting was done deliberately.”
Qiao Liang was baffled.
Hei Sibo smiled and introduced himself in the video.
“Fans of Fei Huang Workspace and Tengda Games, I’m Huang Sibo. I used to be the Executive Chief Planner of Tengda Games, but I’m now the person-in-charge of Fei Huang Workspace. I was involved in the development and shooting of projects such as Ocean Stronghold, Boss Pei’s Daily Life, and Tomorrow is Beautiful.
“Recently, many fans have shown a lot of enthusiasm in speculating Boss Pei’s true identity. Boss Pei hoped for me to convey some information to everyone.
“Boss Pei is a low profile person. He does not wish to become the focus of everyone; neither does he want his personal image to be associated with Tengda—let alone be worshiped like an idol.
“Borrowing the words of a gentleman: there is no need for everyone to love the hen that laid the delicious eggs.
“Of course, we also understand everyone’s curiosity. You can regard the actor in ‘Boss Pei’s Daily Life’ as Boss Pei himself.
“I would like to thank everyone for your continued support and love for Tengda on behalf of everyone in Tengda!”
The video ended. It only lasted two minutes.
Qiao Liang was shocked after he watched this video.
What was this about?
Everything before ‘you can regard the actor in ‘Boss Pei’s Daily Life’ as Boss Pei himself’ was understandable.
Why ‘regard as’? That was Boss Pei himself!
That itself was not a lie, but it would have a misleading effect on the audience.
Qiao Liang entered into deep thought.
Could this be some performance art by Boss Pei again?
Oh, I understand!
Qiao Liang instantly thought about the ‘focus’ theory that Boss Pei emphasized repeatedly before.
Boss Pei had been emphasizing repeatedly that focus was everyone’s most precious wealth. Everyone listened carefully and expressed their enlightenment when they were listening to it, but they forgot all about it immediately.
Why did it matter who Boss Pei was and what he looked like?
That was out of pure curiosity. They devoted a huge amount of focus and attention to Boss Pei, wasting time to do such meaningless things. Obviously, Boss Pei did not want everyone to do this.
Qiao Liang could not help but sigh. Boss Pei had really walked the talk with good intentions!
He must cooperate as a friend of Boss Pei!
Qiao Liang immediately reposted the video: “Boss Pei called on everyone to focus on more meaningful things, but everyone forgot it in the blink of an eye?”
Qiao Liang’s forward obviously played a very good role in guiding public opinion.
The original comments had a lot of questions, but these questions were overshadowed by understanding.
“Ashamed... I just forgot the knowledge I learned in the blink of an eye. Thank you, Boss Pei, for awakening me!”
“Alright, most people are just curious, or they just need an image or symbol of ‘Boss Pei’. Just take this superb actor as the image of Boss Pei then!”
“I think it is a pretty good idea to keep Boss Pei’s identity private, too.”
“Well, let’s use this image to replace Boss Pei. He might be handsome and has good acting skills, but he is obviously not even one-tenth of Boss Pei!”
“That’s weird. Aren’t the Tengda employees too tight-lipped? No one has come forward to reveal the true identity of Boss Pei?”
“Tengda is a company that is united in heart and mind. You cannot imagine how much Tengda employees listen to Boss Pei.”
“Sigh, if only there was a website that could query company information!”
Qiao Liang flipped through everyone’s messages and found that most people still realized the painstaking efforts of Boss Pei; only a few people still wanted to find the true identity of Boss Pei.
Their voices were impossible to gain traction if they were in the minority as the majority of the people would not be able to tell if they were telling the truth or not.
