After hearing what Zhou Muyan said, Sun Xi couldn't help but be stunned.
Mr. Zhou, you don’t do anything that has anything to do with people!
I heard that it was a paid tour before, and my first reaction was to decline it. But now that I saw this documentary, I realized that it was making employees suffer, so I agreed without hesitation!
Sun Xi's only thought now is regret.
Why bother mentioning this!
Thinking about it now, in fact, Min Jingchao was not Versailles at first, it was a completely heartfelt admonishment!
I have long said that suffering travel is not a good thing. It is just labeled as "paid travel" on the surface, but in fact it is "paid suffering"!
They are both paid, but they are fundamentally different!
Sun Xi instantly turned into a bitter look, dumbfounded and speechless.
He really had nothing to say, and it was too late to regret now...
Zhou Muyan looked at Min Jingchao: "Brother Min, as the chief designer of the project, you must also go together to cultivate a good relationship with the team."
Min Jingchao's expression changed immediately: "This is unnecessary!"
"Mr. Zhou, after this project is completed, I will return to Tenda. I have too many opportunities like this in Tenda. You should leave this opportunity to your colleagues at Tianhuo Studio!"
Zhou Muyan waved his hand: "Hey, how can that be done? Tengda is Tengda, Tianhuo is Tianhuo, what you do with Tengda is Mr. Pei's business, but on my side, the treatment must not be treated poorly.
.”
"Paid travel is a benefit for everyone in the project team. How can I leave you out? If Mr. Pei knew about this, wouldn't it be said that I am treating you badly because of my closeness?"
"No need to refuse, although Tianhuo Studio is not rich, it still has this little money!"
Min Jingchao: "..."
Finished.
I originally wanted to divert trouble to the east, but I didn't expect it, and it turned out to be a source of trouble!
Zhou Muyan left, and Min Jingchao and Sun Xi looked at each other, seeing despair in each other's eyes.
It's over, this is a big deal!
This can only be described in one sentence, when will the injustice be repaid.
Originally both of them were a little cautious, but now it's better. They fell in together and turned into grasshoppers on a rope, unable to move.
Min Jingchao coughed twice and asked, "Is there any other way to remedy this? Why do you think Mr. Zhou would cancel this trip with his character?"
Sun Xi's face was also full of despair: "Now that he has made a decision, I'm afraid there is no way to cancel it..."
"but……"
He suddenly had a flash of inspiration: "Maybe there is another way, and that's the price!"
“If the price of a suffering trip is so high that it’s ridiculously high… there’s always the possibility that you’ll give up on it that week!”
"Or, we will look for other relatively affordable alternatives."
"But the premise must be that the price is very high, so high that it seems outrageous at first glance."
Currently, the official website of Suffering Travel has only updated promotional videos and documentaries, and has not introduced specific factors such as price and itinerary options.
What if the price is extremely high?
Zhou Muyan calculated that it would be extremely expensive and expensive to arrange dozens or hundreds of people for the entire project team, so he would naturally consider giving up or switching to other alternative projects.
If it is another paid travel project, even if the content is still survival in the wild, it will always be much more comfortable than suffering on the journey.
This is simply the difference between going deep into the eighteenth level of hell and walking around on the Naihe Bridge.
Min Jingchao's eyes lit up: "That makes sense!"
This is called wisdom out of desperation. As soon as I heard that I was going to be sent on a painful journey, I immediately thought of a way.
And this method is indeed feasible.
Zhou Muyan is not like Mr. Pei. Although he is generally generous to his employees after making money from the project, he is still a very calculating person.
The generosity of bonuses is also based on careful calculation, and the specific number of bonus points is very fixed.
If you find that a trip to Suffering is beyond your budget, you will most likely cancel the trip or switch to another travel company.
And the price of suffering travel... Needless to say, it must be expensive.
Based on Min Jingchao's understanding of suffering during travel, not only special training is required, but the location must be carefully selected and a full set of safety plans in place. In the future, he must also build his own special training base.
The cost of arranging all these is very huge, and the price is unlikely to be cheap.
Moreover, Min Jingchao could also find a way to trick Bao Xu into asking him to further increase the price.
Of course you can’t explicitly raise the price, but you can ask him to improve the quality of his treatment!
As the service quality improves, the price will naturally increase.
When Min Jingchao came up with this idea, he was saved from a desperate situation.
"This method works! We can still save it!"
Min Jingchao felt much more at ease, and while working, he slowly figured out how to trick Bao Xu into raising the price, thereby avoiding the tragedy of the entire "Bullet Marks 2" project team having to suffer without pay.
There is no need to rush this matter, after all, even if I suffer, it will take several months after the development of "Bullet 2" is completed.
During this period, wait and see and choose the most suitable time to strike, so as not to expose yourself too obviously and be targeted by Bao Xu in turn.

Monday, October 29th.
Fei Huang Studio.
Feihuang Studio, which was once very lively, now looks a little deserted, with many workstations vacant. At first glance, it looks like a holiday.
In fact, it is because Huang Sibo is still suffering in Shennongjia, and Zhu Xiaoce has brought a group of people to the United States to co-produce "Successor", so there are not many people left at Feihuang Studio, but a large part of them
They are all responsible for animation projects.
"Academy of Agents" is also on the list of adaptations on the Destination Chinese website, and Pei Qian's original request was to acquire an animation studio to produce it.
I didn't think too much about it at the time. I simply thought it would cost more to acquire an animation studio.
Later, Pei Qian was busy with his affairs, so he stopped taking care of this matter and left it to Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce to promote it.
The two of them are also very busy, one is suffering in Shennongjia, and the other is busy filming "Successor", so this job was assigned to one of his veteran employees who is relatively good at animation, Wu Chuan.
There are many animation studios in the industry, but not all of them can be acquired. Some animation studios are doing well on their own and are very popular, so why sell themselves to others?
As for those animation studios that can be acquired, there are more or less internal problems, and decisions must be made after careful inspection.
This workload is very huge, so since receiving this assignment, Wu Chuan began to learn about the situation from people in the industry, flying around the country to understand the specific conditions of these studios.
Later, some reports were issued and submitted, but no news was received.
Because Zhu Xiaoce didn't quite understand the content and couldn't make a decision, he could only forward it to Mr. Pei, and Mr. Pei might not be able to see it...
In addition, in Pei Qian's opinion, the animation studio's affairs were quite low in priority, so he never paid much attention to them and just put them off a little.
But it doesn't matter, there is still enough time, and there is no harm in doing more inspections.
Now Pei Qian finally took the time to visit Feihuang Studio to finalize the matter.
In the conference room, Wu Chuan handed Pei Qian the research report he had prepared.
"Mr. Pei, this is the situation of several animation companies I inspected."
"These animation companies are all in average operating conditions and can consider acquisition options."
"In addition to these, there are also some excellent animation companies in the industry that can also be taken into consideration. Although they cannot be acquired directly, we can make demands to them as Party A and let them produce "Academy of the Agent"."
"Mr. Pei, which studio do you want to know about? I can answer the key questions."
Pei Qian flipped through the research report casually.
It can be seen that Wu Chuan has done a lot of homework. The information above is quite detailed, including the year of establishment of these studios, their representative works, etc.
And Wu Chuan is right, acquisition is not the only option, you can also choose to outsource, that is, you don’t buy a studio and just cooperate around animation.
In this way, although the control over the studio will be greatly reduced, the studios to cooperate with will definitely be the first-class and top studios in the industry. As long as the money is enough, the quality of the works produced will be more guaranteed.
After quickly scanning the representative works of these studios, Pei Qian couldn't help but frown.
It seems too reliable!
He has heard or seen many of the studio's masterpieces, and knows that they are very reliable choices in the domestic animation circle.
Then after acquiring it and adding Tengda's reputation, is it still worth it?
Although Pei Qian thinks that the script of "Academy of Agents" is quite average, but with the bonus of these animation studios, it will inexplicably gain some popularity, and maybe it will become popular?
This risk still exists.
Pei Qian pondered for a moment and said, "These animation studios... seem to have their own problems."
Wu Chuan nodded slightly. Sure enough, Mr. Pei's requirements were very high.
So many studios ranked high in the industry "each have their own problems," which is enough to show Mr. Pei's unique and sharp vision.
But the problem is... there is no other choice.
Wu Chuan said: "Mr. Pei, these are the results of the current research. If you are not satisfied, there is no better choice."
"Otherwise, I will look for foreign companies, but it will definitely be more troublesome to cooperate with foreign companies."
Pei Qian waved his hand: "There is no need."
"I mean, we might as well build an animation studio from scratch."
Originally, I wanted to buy it ready-made, but it would be better to buy one that will make you lose a lot of money.
But after investigating, I discovered that such good things are not easy to pick up, and the risk is still a bit high.
If that's the case, what about doing it yourself?
Animation as a whole is still a field that requires accumulation and professional talents. Instead of acquiring a ready-made studio that has been run-in and has a complete work process, wouldn't it be more likely to fail to set up an animation studio yourself?
Wu Chuan hesitated for a moment and said: "But Mr. Pei, as I said at the beginning, we don't have any technical accumulation in this area. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to get this studio on the right track."
"Many things cannot be solved simply with money."
Pei Qian laughed, isn't that just right?
Problems that cannot be solved with money are the most expensive!
