htmlOn the evening of November 23, the income certificate of a game client developer of Tencent Tianmei Studio was widely circulated in the circle of friends:
Income certificate shows that the employee is Tencent (Chengdu) Tianmei L1 Studio game client developed and has been in the job for 12 years; his annual income after tax is 2.51 million yuan (including salary, bonus and allowance, etc.), with an average monthly income of about 200,000 yuan, and the official seal of the document is Tencent Human Resources Seal.
After seeing this message, the editor took out the calculator and calculated that the total after-tax income of 2.5 million yuan corresponds to 4 million yuan before tax. If a worker earns 10,000 yuan a month, it will be enough to make 33 years. As soon as the salary of
came out, many netizens said they were "sorry", but some rational netizens doubted the authenticity of the salary proof.
Once this salary certificate was leaked, it caused heated discussions on major platforms. Some employees who have worked at Tencent have also expressed their opinions on whether it is true. Basically, most "experienced people" give the following answer:
is true. Although this number is exaggerated, it is not too much.
The editor has summarized the reasons for you, and it is divided into the following types:
According to former Tencent employees, the Tianmei King of Glory project team has only a few hundred members in total, and they generate tens of billions of revenue every year. On average, each employee produces 200 to 300 million yuan per person, so even an annual income of 250,000 yuan is very reasonable.
This proof states the annual income. If it turns into a monthly income, it is indeed exaggerated, and the monthly salary is about 200,000 yuan, but monthly income is 200,000 yuan and annual income are two different things. The annual income also includes stock and bonus.
As can be seen from the picture, this employee has been working for nearly ten years now. 12 years ago, Tencent’s stock price was less than 60, that is, the market value was less than 60 billion US dollars.
In 2021, Tencent's market value has reached nearly US$600 billion. Thanks to the stocks obtained by the employee in his early years, his current income has increased dozens of times, and the stocks are also a large amount of income every year.
Next is the bonus part. King of Glory is Tencent’s most profitable game, so its studio’s year-end bonus distribution system is different from other departments. independently calculates and has a percentage score, so it is entirely possible to get such a high salary.
King of Glory Team Year-end bonus is 100 months’ salary?
After the screenshot became popular, the editor remembered an anonymous netizen on Maimai that the year-end bonus of the Honor of Kings team reached 100 months' salary. At that time, there was a heartbroken "refutation" with an employee nicknamed Tencent in the comment area - "It's not all. I'm 120 months." Some netizens also replied: "Most of them are 120 months, the lowest is 100 months."
Then, a staff member suspected of Tencent's public relations department spoke in WeChat Moments to refute the rumors, calling it a quarterly award.
As everyone's discussions became increasingly fierce, Tencent's official Weibo spoke out at 14:54 pm that day to refute the rumors, saying that this rumor is too outrageous ~ Is it considered a bonus only after October? Everyone has to work hard for several months! "
But for the official statement, netizens said: "I don't believe it" and "it must be fake."
This speculation from netizens is not without reason. As early as 2017, it was revealed that Honor of Kings was about to issue 100-month year-end bonuses.
This news has been confirmed as "outrageous" by Tencent Games official Weibo, but the wealth created by a hot game for the company and the prosperity of the game industry does make "100 months of year-end bonus" not a distant dream.
Honor of Kings can make money, and its profits are even higher than 98% of A-share listed companies. The latest data shows that since its release in 2015, "Honor of Kings" has generated more than US$10 billion in revenue. It is this excellent data that makes the originally "outrageous" salary reasonable.
Why can you get such a high salary?
This year, Tencent has been from a fresh graduate of 400,000,000 per capita employee salary to its current 250,000 after-tax income, all of which show its "richness". After seeing the data, many netizens expressed their regret that they did not work in the programmer industry. Many programmers also felt that their salary is too small now, and they were inevitably "sour".
But in fact, let’s calm down and think about it. As the leading company in the current Internet trend, Tencent is one of the most profitable studios. As the ceiling of the revenue of the game industry, this salary is actually relatively reasonable.
And as a programmer, he worked for 9 years, and the technical expert basically had more than 60,000 yuan. Tencent’s basic salary is indeed high, the total contract for fresh graduates is close to 400,000 yuan, and the annual salary of ssp is close to 700,000 yuan. After working for 9 years, a monthly salary of about 60,000 is not a big problem.
Another thing is that the Internet industry is in a period of development, and finding the right opportunity is also the key to getting such a high salary.
Are ordinary programmers much worse?
To be fair, the salary of ordinary programmers is not as outrageous as 250W, but they are indeed a high-paying position. As senior technicians, most programmers in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou can earn more than 10,000 yuan a month, which is no less than other engineers or professions.
From the survey results, we can see that programmers’ annual salary is Normal distribution , mainly concentrated between 50,000 and 250,000, accounting for as high as 67.2%. Overall, it is still quite considerable. After all, although the salary of large factories is high, the threshold for entry is relatively difficult.
Some people may also worry that in the next few years, as a large number of people pour into the IT industry, ordinary programmers will be eliminated, etc. In response to these issues, the author has the following view that after the Internet has grown wildly, it will pay more and more attention to the quality of the product. In the next few decades, programmers will definitely gradually occupy the social stage for decades, so the prospects must be very good.
Moreover, the career prospects of programmers are also developing very rapidly. We all know that career prospects are often the product of comprehensive factors and are closely linked to the development of the times. Therefore, programmers in the Internet industry that are developing rapidly will have more promising positions than those in the Pingshang Industry.
Of course, this rapid development must be inseparable from the improvement of one's own technical level and the increase of one's irreplaceability. The team of Honor of Kings is able to get such a high salary, and its team is related to the technical backbone. Therefore, as long as you are determined and work hard to improve yourself, both the prospects and the "money" prospects are very good.

For many young people who come to big cities to work hard, the pressure of renting a house and life once made them breathless. Engaging in a high-paying industry may be a choice to change their lives. Sometimes, choice is more important than hard work.
A of the author's tester friends comes from a very ordinary family and have ordinary personal qualifications. However, relying on my 8 years of hard work, I bought a house in my hometown, without a loan, and I did not seek help from my parents.
For most people, the author believes that programmers are an ordinary profession, but being able to do this profession well will definitely make your economy and development much better than before.
Life is not easy, it is very important to see the road in front of you clearly, and encourage each other!
