Lu Zhiyao looked at the script and then at Zhang Zuting.
Look at the script and then look at Mr. Pei.
Obviously, he was struggling.
A director I have never heard of, a crew with no previous successes, a seemingly unique script, and a male protagonist who is a dog-licker.
By all accounts, taking on this role was a bit of a risk.
But after listening to Zhang Zuting's words, Lu Zhiyao was seriously shaken again.
Maybe this movie can really break through the character images created in the past and detoxify me from this "box office poison"?
If you can really make a movie with a high reputation, even if it doesn't make much money, as long as it can wash away the title of "box office poison" and regain the popularity of the audience, it will be a bloody profit!
Moreover, by working with Zhang Zuting, you might be able to learn something from him and hone your acting skills.
After much consideration, Lu Zhiyao made up his mind and finally nodded: "Okay, then I will take a gamble for this good script and for Mr. Zhang! Like Mr. Zhang, I also took a salary cut to join the team!"
Pei Qian quickly raised his hand to stop: "That's absolutely not possible!"
"I will not give you any less of the remuneration you two deserve, and I will even give you more money!"
"Don't feel embarrassed. As long as you two can provide wonderful acting skills, that will be the greatest reward for me!"
Zhang Zuting and Lu Zhiyao both showed happy smiles.
Sure enough, working with someone like Mr. Pei means being open and bright!
Pei Qian is also very happy. With "Box Office Poison" joining the team, great things can happen!
"In this case, everyone should seize the time to prepare and try to start filming soon!"
Pei Qian couldn't wait to spend all the 30 million now.
…
Things on the movie side have come to an end for the time being.
The script has been finalized, the preliminary preparations are almost complete, and the two main actors have been found. They have good positions and acting skills. It looks like something like that. It doesn't look like a movie that will be a hit upon release.
project.
He has deceived everyone and his disguise has been very successful!
As for the heroine and some supporting actors in the movie, Pei Qian didn't care anymore and let Zhu Xiaoce figure it out on his own.
After all, the actress in this film is just a tool, she doesn't have many roles, and she probably won't be very outstanding.
As long as the two main roles of the judge and the leading actor can be finalized, no matter how hard the other actors work, they won't be able to make a difference.
…
…
November 22nd, Monday.
Pei Qian casually pressed the 10 o'clock alarm clock and slept for more than half an hour before waking up naturally.
I got up and looked around, it was almost time to have lunch, so I ordered a takeaway.
After watching the show for a while, the takeaway also arrived.
Pei Qian was eating takeout while thinking about his work in the future.
The tasks for this cycle have finally been basically allocated. In the short term, at least within the next five or six days, there should be nothing special to be busy with.
However, I haven’t figured out how to spend the 5 million charity amount yet.
There are many ways to do charity.
Some wealthy foreign businessmen do charity to avoid taxes, and some even turn charity into business. Not only do they not lose money, but they can also make some money.
But Pei Qian's charity purpose is relatively simple, just to lose money.
The simplest way is to donate it, but to whom it should be donated is a question.
Whether it is donating to poor children or to underdeveloped areas in the country, it must go through some charitable organizations in the process, and Pei Qian does not have the energy to verify or distinguish whether these charitable organizations are reliable or not.
After all, so many seemingly reliable charities and non-profit organizations have also experienced scandals.
This money will be spent no matter how you spend it, but if it makes some vampires cheaper, it will be very unpleasant.
Therefore, Pei Qian's initial plan is to start from around him, first ensure that the money can be given to those who really need it, and then slowly expand the scope.
Five million for charity is not a lot in terms of amount. Compared with foreign wealthy people who frequently donate nearly 90% of their inheritance to charitable foundations, it is far behind.
However, many foreign wealthy people donate their inheritance naked to avoid taxes. It would be good if 10% of this large amount of inheritance can be used for real charitable activities.
And Pei Qian's current 5 million is a real 5 million, and he will definitely spend it all without discounts.
In the future, as the initial funds of the system continue to increase, Pei Qian will have more and more funds that can be used for charity activities, and maybe it will increase to 8 million, 10 million or even higher in the future.
In the long run, Pei Qian will definitely set up a special charitable foundation to manage this money and spend it where it is most needed.
But this matter cannot be rushed at the moment.
Therefore, Pei Qian plans to start from those around him first, so that at least the money can be given to those who really need it.
But who exactly it will be given to... Pei Qian hasn't thought much about it yet.
Just as I was thinking about it, the phone rang.
Pei Qian put down his chopsticks and glanced at the caller ID. It turned out to be his counselor Zhang Wei.
"Huh?" Pei Qian was a little surprised.
The last time Zhang Wei called, he asked Pei Qian to give a nice word to the leaders at Feihuang Studio and help solve the employment problems of his senior brothers and sisters.
Pei Qian thought he had found a treasure and happily arranged for them to reach the finish line.
Then……
There is no more.
This time Zhang Wei called again. What could happen?
Pei Qian is now in his sophomore year and still does not hold any position in the school. This year's grades are probably the same as last year's grades. Scholarships and merit evaluations are not his business, and other...
It's possible.
Is it possible that we need to solve the employment problem of a group of senior brothers and sisters again?
You can't. It's only November and it's not graduation season yet?
With doubts, Pei Qian answered the phone: "Hello? Teacher Zhang?"
Zhang Wei on the other side of the phone was silent for two seconds, and his tone was a bit complicated: "Pei Qian, should I call you 'Mr. Pei' now?"
Pei Qian: "???"
Something feels wrong.
What happened???
Zhang Wei also stayed at the school as a counselor after graduating from his senior year. In terms of age, he is only five or six years older than Pei Qian, so he can be considered the same age. So although he doesn't interact much in daily life, he basically has friends.
almost.
Zhang Wei often spent his own money to invite some boys in the same grade out to eat and drink, so Pei Qian had a good impression of Zhang Wei.
But today's call made Pei Qian feel that there was a big problem!
Pei Qian told Zhang Wei before that he had found a part-time job at Feihuang Studio, and Zhang Wei obviously had no doubts.
But this time, Zhang Wei called Pei Qian "Mr. Pei", which is a big problem!
Pei Qian smiled: "Teacher Zhang, are you kidding? When did I become Mr. Pei?"
Zhang Wei was angry and funny: "You are still pretending! If Zhu Xing'an hadn't come back to see me recently and talked to me about you, I would have been kept in the dark by you!"
"After a long time, you are the boss of Tengda. Feihuang Studio and many other industries belong to you?"
"You are really capable. You have quietly built such a big company for more than a year, and you are still so low-key that not many people around you know about it!"
"If it were anyone else, the small amount of money they could earn would have been known to the whole school. It would be better for you to build such a big company and end up hiding it like a thief!"
Pei Qian: "..."
Bad! Things are exposed!
Pei Qian has tried to reduce the number of times he appears at the finish line as much as possible, but after all, this thing cannot be hidden forever...
Pei Qian was silent for a moment: "Teacher Zhang, you also know that I am a low-key person and just want to live a normal campus life. I don't want me to be in class and suddenly a senior student rushes into the classroom to follow me.
Looking for a job would be so magical..."
Zhang Wei was speechless: "Is this the brain circuit of a business wizard? It's really different... OK, since you said so, then I, as a teacher, will definitely keep your secrets, and you don't have to worry about your normal life.
affected."
"but……"
"In the graduation season next year, Mr. Pei, will you still have to give your teacher Zhang a hand?"
"I heard Zhu Xing'an say, you arrange them to the finish line, and now the benefits of this website are very good! You see, this is a win-win situation. The school provides you with talents, and you provide employment for the seniors and sisters.
jobs, the employment rate here has also gone up, and your company’s efficiency has also gone up, how great!”
Pei Qian: "..."
On the surface, it looks really good, but...
Forget it, it’s hard to put it into words.
Pei Qian really doesn’t want to accept any more seniors, it’s so hard to accept!
If we get to another end point, I won’t be able to survive!
Although the income at the current end is not too much, it is still a burden after all, and Mr. Pei does not want any more burdens.
However, it is not easy to refuse this matter directly. After all, Zhang Wei is right. From all aspects, this matter is a win-win situation for the school, individuals and enterprises. What reason can Pei Qian find to refuse...
Pei Qian thought of the previously scheduled recruitment exam and had an idea.
"Teacher Zhang, it's like this."
"You also know that Tengda has received a lot of attention recently due to some unexpected reasons. Therefore, the company just set the rules and regulations some time ago. Our company now requires all candidates to take the entrance examination. All job seekers must pass a unified entrance examination.
Come filter."
"I can't just set a rule and then make an exception myself, don't you think so?"
Zhang Wei: "...that's a pity."
"Okay, since it's a new rule, I can't force it. I'll tell the senior students this year and ask them to prepare for your company's exam in advance."
Pei Qian thought of another thing: "By the way, Teacher Zhang, although I can't directly recruit you, I still have some other things that I can help my alma mater with."
"The first is the entrance exam. At that time, I hope to find some senior graduate students to help mark the exam. The hard work fee will definitely be enough."
Zhang Wei: "That's easy to say. Anyway, the college entrance examination papers and public officials' papers are basically arranged by the school for graduate students to read them. Now it's just a staggered time to help your company read them. I'll report it to the school leaders, and it should be fine."
Pei Qian continued: "Also, I want to donate a sum of money to the poor students in the school."
Zhang Wei: "Of course that's great, but how do you plan to donate? According to the school's list of poor students?"
Pei Qian shook his head: "I hope to check the school's campus card system and screen out a group of students who spend a lot of money in the school cafeteria every month, but the amount of consumption each time is not high, and then the school will screen these students."
actual economic conditions.”
"All needy students who can be identified will be provided with a monthly subsidy of 500 yuan in the next five months to protect their basic living."
"There is a total quota of 2,000 people."
Zhang Wei was silent for a moment: "Okay, let me thank you on behalf of these classmates."
