Saturday, January 22nd.
Pei Qian was in a good mood last night, and he and Cui Geng had a little drink at the Ming Mansion family banquet, so he slept well.
I woke up naturally at 9:30 this morning.
After waking up, I glanced at my phone. The memo on it said: Go to Universal Street to take a look at the situation of the shared phone booth.
Pei Qian was strolling around, planning to have breakfast at the bun shop downstairs.
As soon as the buns were served, Pei Qian received a new message.
Huang Sibo: "Mr. Pei, the rough cut of the film has been released. Why don't you take a look?"
Huh? Rough cut?
Director Zhu Xiaoce did seem to have mentioned this when the crew had a dinner at Mingyun's private kitchen.
The so-called rough cut is just the product of simple editing using the footage that was shot. The editing is not so sophisticated and there are no special effects. A lot of the content has to be filled in by the brain.
However, it is still a finished film, and something can be roughly discerned.
Pei Qian thought about it and realized that this was more important. He could go to the phone booth in the afternoon, so he replied: "Okay, I'll be there in a moment."
He was just about to accept it. I picked up the phone and suddenly realized something was wrong.
"Did you work overtime today, Saturday?"
Huang Sibo quickly replied: "Uh, Mr. Pei, I have paid you overtime pay."
Pei Qian had a tough attitude: "You can't work overtime so confidently even if you're paid overtime! If you don't do it next time, try to avoid it in the future!"
Huang Sibo: "Okay, Mr. Pei."
Feihuang Studio It is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenda, not a department of Tenda, so Pei Qian cannot be too strict about overtime work. He can only scold Huang Sibo and let him take care of himself.
Although Pei Qian has never had much influence on Feihuang Studio, now that the rough cut of the film has been released, he must still go there to give himself some reassurance.
......
At the same time, Moyu Internet Cafe Handong University Store.
Lin Chang ordered a cup of hot coffee and drank it while warming his hands, still feeling a little tired.
He came from the airport, but his butt was still hot from sitting.
After arriving in Jingzhou, he immediately went to the Moyu Internet Cafe near Handong University, wanting to meet with Mr. Pei to discuss the progress of the previous plan.
Unfortunately, after I sent the message, I found out that Mr. Pei had already arrived at Feihuang Studio and was looking at the samples that had just been rough cut.
Watching the movie plus the time on the road will take nearly three hours anyway.
Moreover, Mr. Pei said that he had something to deal with in the afternoon that had been delayed for a long time, and it might take more than an hour.
Lin Chang made some calculations and figured out that he might have to wait until three or four in the afternoon to see Mr. Pei.
This is a bit embarrassing.
LinChang knew that Mr. Pei was busy with work and fully understood this, but he didn't intend to just wait.
He decided to ask Lin Wan out first to observe the progress.
Lin Chang and Mr. Pei had conspired well before, letting Lin Wan be in charge of the horror game project of Yangyang Games and the mobile phone business at the same time.
There are many and complicated things on both sides, and the probability of Lin Wan's project failure will be greatly increased.
Originally, the two of them considered having a backup plan.
In order to better combat the mobile phone business, they are considering waiting for a mobile phone to be released here. The Shenhua mobile phone department that Lin Yu is responsible for will release a benchmark mobile phone with better quality and lower price than here. A little lower than here, and the publicity is a little better than here.
In this way, direct hand-to-hand combat can eliminate hidden dangers in the bud, which is enough to become invincible.
As a result, halfway through the development of this mobile phone, Mr. Pei sent Lin Chang a message: the back-up device was no longer needed.
This mobile phone has been sold directly for 8,000. Shenhua’s flagship mobile phone can already meet the requirements of “better quality, lower price, and better publicity”. There is no need to build another one for mobile phone.
So, this back-up plan was naturally given up.
Just as I was thinking about it, Lin Wan arrived.
She sat down opposite Lin Chang, also ordered a cup of coffee, then frowned and asked, "Brother, why are you here again?"
Lin Chang's mouth twitched: " Why do you call it 'again'? Can't I come and see my own sister?"
Lin Wan looked unbelieving: "I always feel like you have been running around a lot recently, maybe you have some ulterior motive? ?"
"How is it possible! I just like the livable environment in Jingzhou!" Lin Chang smiled confidently, "Besides, I have to come here often. How are you?"
Lin Wan shook her coffee cup: "It's okay, so-so"
Seeing that Lin Wan was not in a good mood. Lin Chang couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
It looks promising!
If the progress of these two projects was very optimistic, Lin Wan would have been showing off to herself by now, given her character.
Since Lin Wan did not show off, it means that there is no good progress in the current two projects!
Although I am happy in my heart, I cannot show it on my face.
Lin Chang looked concerned: "What, are you encountering any difficulties? Is there anything you need my help with? Just ask!"
Lin Wan ignored it. He glanced at him: "Come on, one of my current projects is a horror game and the other is a mobile phone. Which one can you help with?"
"The current status of these two projects can only be said to be so-so. Although there has been some progress, I still feel unsure.”
“The current big picture of the horror game project is fine, but there are still many small details that need to be modified.Moreover, even if these small details are modified, it is difficult to determine whether players will accept this new type of horror game. So, I'm a little worried. ”
“Fortunately, there is a very powerful art master who has been helping us adjust the game style and enrich the game details. Recently, it finally looks like that.” "
"On the other side of the phone...Hey, to be honest, I really can't control it. ”
“I am already very busy with just one horror game, and I basically don’t care much about my mobile phone. The last time I went there, the people there gave me a prototype that was as heavy as a brick. I felt that there was a big problem at the time, but the prototype had already been made. I have never been involved in the research and development of mobile phones, and there was no way I could let them overthrow it. Come. ”
“We can only wait for the mobile phone to be produced, and other departments of Paotengda can provide some benefits, which can be regarded as making some contributions. "
"But even so, I think this phone is probably pornographic. ”
Lin Wan and Lin Chang have always had a good relationship. They didn’t think too much about this meeting and confessed all their recent confusions and worries.
Lin Chang looked worried and frowned on the surface. He frowned, looking very worried about Lin Wan, but he was already happy inside.
"Okay, Mr. Pei, this plan is really flawless!" "
" Ah Wan has not noticed it at all until now. ”
“If the current trend continues and horror games hit the streets along with mobile phones, the blow to Awan will definitely be huge! "
Thinking of this, Lin Chang couldn't help but feel a little carried away, and whispered: "It seems that I really need to find a way to thank Mr. Pei." "
Lin Wan frowned: "Huh? What did you say? Why should you thank Mr. Pei? "
Lin Chang was startled, did you hear me muttering so quietly?
Seeing Lin Wan's gaze with a hint of wariness, Lin Chang hurriedly said: "I That is to say, Mr. Pei trusts you so much and entrusts you with important tasks. As an elder brother, of course I must find an opportunity to thank Mr. Pei! "
Lin Wan's face brightened slightly: "That's true. "
Lin Chang thought for a while: "But Mr. Pei seems to be lacking everything. "
"How about asking the second brother to give him free rent again? ”
“Or, should I take care of the business of Moyu Internet Cafe? "
Lin Wan shook his head: "It feels like there is no sincerity. For this little money, Mr. Pei didn't care at all. "
Lin Chang deeply agreed: "Yes, that's right. These small favors are not enough to repay Mr. Pei's sincerity. So...is there anything Mr. Pei is in urgent need of? Preferably something I happen to be able to help with. "
Lin Wan frowned and thought for two minutes.
"Yes! "
"You know that Feihuang Studio is currently preparing to shoot a movie, and it has been completed, right? ”
Lin Chang thought for a while. Mr. Pei did say before that he wanted to watch the rough cut of the film, so he nodded.
Lin Wan continued: "This movie is Mr. Pei's idea, including the entire story outline. It shows that he must attach great importance to this movie, because it condenses his passion "My hard work."
Lin Chang was a little confused: "So? If you had told me earlier, I could have helped find a good director and a few actor-level actors, but the film has already been completed. "?"
He paused and then realized: "Oh, I understand! Do you want me to help contact the distribution and theaters?"
Lin Wan nodded. : "Yes, this is very simple for you, but for Mr. Pei, it is something that is in urgent need."
Good wine can also be afraid of deep alleys.
Lin Chang thought for a while and realized that this was really the case.
Although Mr. Pei’s Tengda Group has a big business, Feihuang Studio under him is serious about entering the film industry. This is the first time and it probably does not have similar resources and connections.
But Lin Chang is different. He is responsible for the entertainment and film and television media business of Shenhua Group, and he has a lot of resources in his hands.
"Okay, it's a trivial matter!"
"I'll tell Mr. Pei right now!" Lin Chang was very happy and felt that this thank you gift should be considered quite sincere. .
Lin Wan waved her hand: "Uh... I think there is no need to tell Mr. Pei."
"Mr. Pei has been busy with official duties recently, and he seems a little uncomfortable with troubling him with such a small matter. OK."
"I'll give you the phone number of the person in charge of Feihuang Studio. You can just call me."
"I'll give it to you when the movie is released. Wouldn't it be better if Mr. Pei was given a surprise?"
Lin Chang thought about it and it seemed right.
Mr. Pei had to travel to at least three places today, and he also had a long-delayed task to deal with, which showed that his schedule was very full.
Thinking about it this way, people from Feihuang Studio must be responsible for things like finding a distributor for the movie and negotiating with theaters for film schedules. We can’t have Mr. Pei do it himself for such trivial matters, right? ?
In this case, it would be better to go directly to talk to the people at Feihuang Studio to handle this matter properly and let Mr. Pei get a surprise when he goes to the premiere. Beautiful?
Thinking of this, Lin Chang nodded: "Okay, then give me the contact information of the person in charge of Feihuang Studio, and I will tell him."
