Pei Qian was in a good mood last night, and he and Cui Geng had a little drink at the Ming Mansion family dinner, 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.
Just 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?"
Hmm? A rough cut?
Director Zhu Xiaoce seemed to have indeed mentioned this when the crew had a dinner at Ming Yun'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 you can still get a rough idea of it.
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 put away his phone when he suddenly realized something was wrong.
"It's Saturday, did you work overtime?"
Huang Sibo quickly replied: "Uh, Mr. Pei, I paid you overtime pay."
Pei Qian had a tough attitude: "You can't work overtime so confidently even if you are paid overtime! If you don't do this next time, try to avoid it in the future!"
Huang Sibo: "Okay, Mr. Pei."
Feihuang Studio is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tenda, not a department of Tenda, so Pei Qian can't 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 involvement in Feihuang Studio, now that the rough cut of the film has been released, he must still go there and 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 dusty.
He came from the airport and his butt was still hot.
After arriving in Jingzhou, he immediately went to the Moyu Internet Cafe near Handong University, wanting to meet Mr. Pei to discuss the progress of the previous plan.
However, 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.
Including watching the movie and the time on the road, it would take nearly three hours.
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 found that he might have to wait until three or four in the afternoon to see Mr. Pei.
This is a bit embarrassing.
Lin Chang knew that Mr. Pei was busy with work and fully understood this, but he did not 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 to let 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 failing 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 comparable mobile phone. The quality is a little better than here, and the price is a little lower than here.
The publicity is a little better than here.
This kind of 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 the mobile phone, Mr. Pei sent Lin Chang a message: the back-end device was no longer needed.
This mobile phone was directly sold for 8,000. Shenhua's flagship mobile phone can already meet the requirements of "a little better quality, a little lower price, and a little better publicity". There is no need to build a targeted mobile phone.
Therefore, this back-up plan was naturally given up.
Just as I was thinking about it, Lin Wan arrived.
She sat down opposite Lin Chang, ordered a cup of coffee as well, then frowned and asked, "Brother, why are you here again?"
Lin Chang's mouth twitched: "Why do you call it 'you'? Can't I come and see my own sister?"
Lin Wan looked unbelieving: "I always feel like you've been running around a lot lately. Is there some ulterior motive?"
"How is that possible! I just fell in love with the livable environment in Jingzhou!" Lin Chang smiled rather confidently, "Besides, I have to come over to see you often. How about it? I've been working a lot lately.
Did it go well?"
Lin Wan shook her coffee cup: "It's okay, just so-so."
Seeing Lin Wan's lack of interest, Lin Chang couldn't help but feel secretly happy.
Looks like fun!
If the progress of these two projects was very optimistic, Lin Wan would have been showing off to herself by now, given her personality.
Since Lin Wan didn't show off, it means that the current two projects are not making any good progress!
Although I was happy in my heart, I couldn't show it on my face.
Lin Chang looked concerned: "What, are you encountering any difficulties? Is there anything I need my help with? Just ask!"
Lin Wan 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."
"As for the horror game project, there is nothing wrong with the current big frame, 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."
"Over there with the mobile phone...hey, to be honest, I really can't control it."
"I was already so busy just playing a horror game, and I basically didn't pay much attention to 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 huge problem at that time.
But the prototypes have been made, and I have never participated in the research and development of mobile phones, and it is impossible for them to start over."
"We can only wait until the mobile phone is produced, and other departments of Tenda 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 had always had a good relationship, so they didn't think much about it during this meeting, and they told all about their recent confusions and worries.
On the surface, Lin Chang was worried and frowned, as if he was worried about Lin Wan, but inside he was already happy.
"Okay, Mr. Pei, this plan is really flawless!"
"Ah Wan hasn't noticed it at all until now."
"If we continue to maintain the current situation and wait for horror games to 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 do you want to thank Mr. Pei?"
Lin Chang was shocked, did you hear me whispering so quietly?
Seeing Lin Wan's look with a hint of wariness, Lin Chang hurriedly said: "I mean, Mr. Pei trusts you so much and entrusts you with important tasks. As an elder brother, of course I have to find an opportunity to thank Pei."
total!"
Lin Wan's face brightened slightly: "That's true."
Lin Chang thought for a while: "But Mr. Pei seems to be lacking for 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 her head: "It feels like there is no sincerity. For this small amount of money, Mr. Pei doesn't care at all."
Lin Chang agreed deeply: "Yes, that's right. These small favors are not enough to repay Mr. Pei's sincerity. Then...is there anything that Mr. Pei is in urgent need of? It's best if I can help."
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 about it and realized that Mr. Pei had indeed said 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 summary. It shows that he must attach great importance to this movie, because his hard work is condensed in it."
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 hasn't the film been completed now?"
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 urgently needed."
Good wine is also 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 large 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 piece of cake!"
"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: "Well... I think there is no need to tell Mr. Pei."
"Mr. Pei has been busy with official duties recently, so it seems inappropriate to trouble him with such a small matter."
"I'll give you the phone number of the person in charge of Feihuang Studio directly. You can just contact him."
"Wouldn't it be better to give President Pei a surprise when the movie is released?"
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 a movie, negotiating with theaters for film arrangement, etc. You can't expect Mr. Pei to do such a small thing personally, right?
In this case, wouldn't it be more beautiful to go directly to talk to the people at Feihuang Studio to handle the matter properly and let Mr. Pei get a surprise when he goes to the premiere?
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."
