On Friday, August 20th, at 11 a.m., Yang Jingxing and Pang Xi arrived in Pingjing with the Eyang film team to officially join in the preparation work for "A Flying Flaw". It is not easy for Eyang, as the team does not focus on film projects.

I get paid purely for being an intern.

On the way from the airport to the city, Yang Jingxing sent another text message to He Peiyuan: I have arrived in Pingjing. Congratulations on being able to live in peace for two days.

Still no reply.

This time Kong Yafei is going to roll up his sleeves and work hard. He has a mature script, a mature team, a pretty guaranteed investor, and the director has enough autonomy. Of course, if you want to work hard, you have to be unafraid of hard work. Although Kong Yafei’s split-shot painting

They are all matchstick villains, but every shot is very detailed, and even requires repeated consideration. Yang Jingxing is considered a beginner, and it can be seen that these large pages are parallel montages...

There is also casting, the power and responsibility are also in the hands of Kong Yafei. There is no one to bring money to join the cast this time. In addition, it is a new film directed by "Happy Dog". It is invested and managed by China Film Group. Although the investment is not high, it is definitely high.

It is considered a high-quality project, and there are many actors who want to be cast in it. Fortunately, the assistant director is someone Kong Yafei trusts, and he can help screen the audition actors first.

"The Fly in the Fly" still can't afford top-notch actors, and the film's positioning is not about stardom. From a market perspective, it would be better for "The Fly in the Fly" to have two or three leading actors from "Happy Dog". Fortunately, Kong Yafei appreciates it more.

Although the man and the woman are now busy as celebrities, they are still loyal and willing to cooperate with the director again at a relatively low salary.

Pang Xi's professional direction is not art. Her suggestion is to sign a contract with the director before "The Fly in the Ointment" starts filming, and tie up Kong Yafei's wings before they get stiff. You can also sign actors with potential, and make the film a routine as soon as possible.

Let's do it.

Yang Jingxing knew that Eyang's financial manager was under pressure, but he once again confirmed Kong Yafei's identity as a friend. The loyalty between the two parties should be voluntary.

The preliminary budget for the project has been made. The production cost of "A Fly in the Ointment" is around 25 million, plus or minus 5 million. The cost of publicity and distribution has no bottom, and how to do it needs to be carefully considered. However, Yang Jingxing and Wu Mingyang are working with China Film.

Some verbal consensus was reached, and Ayang also used the successful hype of "Happy Dog" as a source of confidence, and even asked China Film to put down its traditional ideas.

The publicity started from the day it was launched. Yang Jingxing drew two trend charts for Wu Mingyang, one was the traditional approach and the other was online marketing. It was very particular about what kind of effort should be used at what point in time.

The entire marketing work process, in detail, consisted of at least hundreds of planning documents, and Yang Jingxing appointed himself as the supervisor.

After a busy day, Yang Jingxing went back to the hotel to rest at two o'clock in the morning and continued to send text messages to He Peiyuan: He went home alone at midnight last night and was alone in the hotel at midnight today. The feeling is the same as before. Even if you don't agree, it will have an effect.

Oops, He Peiyuan wrote back after a while: Don't be crazy and wake me up in the middle of the night.

Yang Jingxing: Good night, sweet dreams.

He Peiyuan: Nightmare.

Yang Jingxing: I tried hard to control myself in the morning, so as not to affect your lunch. I controlled myself in the afternoon, so as not to affect your dinner. I controlled myself at night, so as not to have nightmares. I carefully sent you a text message in the middle of the night and you are still like this. Then I will

Just call directly.

After waiting for two minutes without a reply, Yang Jingxing actually called. But the reality was cruel. Apparently the caller hung up as soon as it rang.

Yang Jingxing sent another text message: If you don’t answer the phone, I’m going to call.

He Peiyuan is not afraid anymore: just scream.

Yang Jingxing: When watching the news tomorrow, the media in Beijing will all ask who Yuanyuan and He Peiyuan are. You are disturbing the people in the middle of the night.

He Peiyuan: You can be nervous, I'm going to sleep.

Yang Jingxing: Good night, sweet dreams.

He Peiyuan: Asleep!

On Saturday, Yang Jingxing gave He Peiyuan another whole day to live in peace. He was really not free. He was always with a bunch of people, until the extravagant social dinner in the evening when the boss of China Film and Television attended.

Although it was an important occasion, there was no important work to talk about, so Mr. Yang hid and made phone calls. After being hung up on twice, Yang Jingxing sent a text message: I advise you to answer the phone. How long can you be arrogant? I will reply at noon tomorrow.

Puhai, believe it or not, I will go directly to your house.

He Peiyuan commented: You are a scoundrel.

Yang Jingxing: Thank you for the encouragement.

He Peiyuan: I don’t like scoundrels.

Yang Jingxing: Thank you for reminding me, really.

He Peiyuan: I'm going for a walk with my mother and I don't have time to talk to you.

Yang Jingxing: I won’t harass you tonight, otherwise I won’t be able to return to Puhai tomorrow.

It is estimated that He Peiyuan also made a difficult decision: I would rather you bother me.

Yang Jingxing: Don't set a trap for me, I want to see someone.

He Peiyuan: But I don’t want to see you.

Yang Jingxing: Yuanyuan encouraged me, reminded me, and motivated me. I will definitely work hard!

He Peiyuan doesn't reply. Let's see what you do.

After eleven o'clock in the evening, when Yang Jingxing was listening to everyone's meeting to discuss the location, He Peiyuan sent a preemptive text message: I will turn off the phone and go to sleep. Goodbye.

Yang Jingxing quickly replied: Thank you very much, I can let go.

He Peiyuan may have shut down her phone.

Returning to the hotel in the middle of the night, Yang Jingxing tried to call He Peiyuan, but his phone was indeed turned off, so he sent a text message: Du Lin is so awesome.

After eight o'clock on Sunday morning, He Peiyuan replied to Yang Jingxing: What's wrong with Du Lin?

Yang Jingxing called and got through. He didn't seize the opportunity to please, but complained a little: "You really turned off your phone. What should I do if I have something to do with you?"

"What's the matter?" He Peiyuan felt: "I can't help you."

Yang Jingxing complained: "I want to talk to someone. After the meeting at midnight, who should I go to?"

"Don't look for me anyway." He Peiyuan still insisted on her principle, but now that she answered the phone: "What's wrong with Du Lin? Didn't you always say that she is very loyal?"

Yang Jingxing responded: "It's just, but it's also powerful... That's right, listen to me and see if my analysis is correct."

He Peiyuan hummed: "Say."

Yang Jingxing began to tell: "Last night at dinner, we entertained several executives from China Film Group. I didn't think much about it before, so I called Du Lin over. Luo Jihui was also familiar with China Film Group, so he came too. Anyway,

The table is full of experienced people, so Eyang tries to look familiar."

Let’s talk about safety. He Peiyuan asked: “Who are you here?”

Yang Jingxing said: "It's just me, Pang Xi, Kong Yafei, and a production assistant named Wu. He was originally from Du Lin. When I was filming "Happy Dog", I borrowed him and hired him."

He Peiyuan asked: "What's wrong?"

Yang Jingxing said: "We had dinner and drinks, and we didn't talk about business at the beginning. In fact, it has nothing to do with Du Lin this time..."

He Peiyuan guessed: "She also wants to invest?"

Yang Jingxing said: "No, her principle is not to invest in projects, only to invest in artists..."

He Peiyuan guessed again: "What's the matter? Do you want you to use her actors?"

"Listen to me." Yang Jingxing said in a serious tone: "Nie Shaoying, do you remember?"

"Of course!" He Peiyuan was very disgusted that her memory was being slandered.

Yang Jingxing said: "Her relationship with Kong Yafei is now clear. It was Kong Yafei who took the initiative to take her to the dinner yesterday..."

He Peiyuan would really think: "Did Du Lin win over her?"

Yang Jingxing said: "No, because no one was taking care of his family at that time, Nie Shaoying was a little embarrassed. Du Lin was very considerate of other people's faces, so he took advantage of me, saying that I wanted to take care of him but I couldn't."

He Peiyuan asked no more questions.

Yang Jingxing was worried again: "Are you listening?"

There was no sound from the girl, but the phone was not hung up.

Yang Jingxing continued to confide: "Du Lin's group of friends often laugh at me for not having a girlfriend. What's wrong with me? There are so many people without girlfriends. I don't know what's so funny? In fact, I'm numb too. It doesn't matter. But yesterday I really

I finally took a breath and told them that I have someone I like!"

There was still no sound on the other end of the phone.

Yang Jingxing didn't care anymore: "So I said Du Lin was amazing. When she asked me who I was, I said she had seen it before. Guess who she guessed first, it wasn't even a guess, she hit it in one hit!"

Without letting Yang Jingxing wait too long, He Peiyuan told him to reap the consequences in a calm tone: "I know who the person you like is, you don't have to guess."

"Yuanyuan is also amazing." Yang Jingxing laughed and said, "Actually, this is what I really want to tell you. Let's meet in the afternoon?"

He Peiyuan felt: "It's not necessary."

Yang Jingxing said: "I'm not trying to be a rogue, I really want to have a good talk with you."

After hesitating for a while, He Peiyuan had a glimmer of hope: "If you are serious, I can make it clear to you and you will stop bothering me in the future."

Yang Jingxing said, "Okay, just wait for my call and I'll take the flight at 1 o'clock."

He Peiyuan: "Okay."

Yang Jingxing said sincerely: "See you in the afternoon."

Goodbye He Peiyuan.

Yang Jingxing was not really very enterprising. Many things still needed to be discussed and resolved, but he left his immature team in Pingjing and returned to Puhai alone.

Hurry up and hurry up, it was already 4:30 pm when Yang Jingxing called He Peiyuan again: "Hey, I'm almost there."

He Peiyuan said directly: "Where can we meet?"
