In the afternoon, the nameless restaurant.

Lu Zhiyao, Zhang Zuting, Lin Ruyi, Zhu Xiaoce, Huang Sibo...... As well as the screenwriting team, post-production team and other key personnel of Feihuang Studio, gathered together to enjoy the food and talk about the wine at the same time.

"So I still think that Mr. Pei's use of all-English dubbing at the beginning is definitely far-sighted! Otherwise, how can there be a bumper harvest at the domestic and overseas box office? If you look at the blockbusters in recent years, there are a few that have won more than 10 million dollars at the box office overseas! ”

"Yes, Mr. Pei is definitely soul-giving to this film!"

"Of all the praise that this film has received from film critics, at least fifty percent of it must be Mr. Pei."

"It's only fifty percent?"

"I'm sorry, my, said less. I punished myself with a drink. ”

"Director Zhu, did you bring the trophy?"

"Bring it, come, everyone be careful to circulate it, if you bump it, it will take next year to win one."

"Director Zhu, what you said is not right, you are so confident, next year? What if we win the Palme d'Or next year? ”

"That is, maybe this is the last Jury Prize we won at Cannes, and in the future, we will all win the Palme d'Or, which is too commemorative, and we must take it with care!"

"In short, I still have to thank Mr. Pei! It's a pity that Mr. Pei is busy with work and can't come. ”

"Let's give Mr. Pei a drink!"

"Yes, I would like to have a cup to Mr. Pei!"

Everyone raised their glasses, their faces were a little red, obviously people were happy and drunk.

It's just that I don't know why this scene, it's a bit like the feeling of eating and drinking in the whole village.

Lu Zhiyao also drank two glasses rarely, and asked Zhu Xiaoce: "Director Zhu, have you been preparing a new film recently?" ”

Zhu Xiaoce waved his hand: "Don't mention it, I have already been given 'shock' by Mr. Pei, and all employees of the entire department will be on paid leave!" But it's also an opportunity to build inspiration and build a solid foundation. ”

"To be honest, I think the film "Beautiful Tomorrow", if our strength is more solid, maybe we can shoot better. I feel that our strength has dragged down Mr. Pei's idea, which is a pity. We still have to continue to work hard and strive for the next film to never hold Mr. Pei back! ”

Lu Zhiyao nodded: "In this way, I think my acting skills in some places are still not proficient enough, and I have to continue to work hard." Sure enough, when I work with Mr. Pei, I will think about how to keep improving. ”

Zhang Zuting ate barbecue and asked Huang Sibo: "What kind of work is Mr. Pei busy with?" So busy that you don't even have time for a meal? ”

Huang Sibo smiled: "Uncle Zhang, don't you know Mr. Pei yet?" ”

"He didn't like to celebrate in the first place."

"In fact, Mr. Pei has always been like this, and when he used to make games, the game became popular and made money, everyone celebrated happily, and Mr. Pei immediately went to think about the next project, and never indulged in this complacency."

"I can't really learn this."

"Of course, in addition, Mr. Pei is also really busy, you look at the projects he has on hand now, Internet cafes, takeaways, apartments, gyms, two games, ......"

Huang Sibo counted back and forth, probably because he drank alcohol, his head was not very clear, and he counted clearly for half a day.

"Anyway, it's really busy. I think that if others were to open so many projects at the same time, they would have been dizzy, and the connection between various departments would have been completely messed up. ”

"I can't do both."

"But Mr. Pei is different, he can also smooth out the relationship between various departments well, and he can also let many departments cooperate with each other and advance according to their own layout, which is not something that ordinary people can do."

Zhang Zuting nodded: "Indeed." ”

"But...... Mr. Pei doesn't have time to eat, so he always has time to meet and say a word, right? ”

"It's true that I haven't seen Mr. Pei for a while."

"Why don't we go visit Mr. Pei and leave after asking a few words, and don't delay his time?"

Lu Zhiyao nodded: "Okay!" However, I don't think there should be too many people, so as not to affect Mr. Pei's work. ”

Zhu Xiaoce said: "The point is...... Do you know where Mr. Pei is? Calling and asking, it seems a little inappropriate, right? ”

Huang Sibo thought for a while: "It's really inappropriate to call, Mr. Pei will definitely attach great importance to the phone, if he deliberately takes time out to meet us, won't it disrupt his original work plan?" In this way, we will try our luck in the places where Mr. Pei often goes, and if we meet us, we will say hello, and if we don't meet them, forget it. ”

"Good!" Lu Zhiyao and the others readily agreed.

……

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Tengda game department.

Huang Sibo was a little deflated: "If Mr. Pei is not here, then it will be really useless." ”

After the dinner, they had already gone to the Handong University store of the fishing Internet café, the hosting gym and the office of Mr. Pei on the 16th floor of Shenhua Haojing to look for it, but Mr. Pei was not there.

In the end, I can only try my luck on Tengda Games, and if I can't see Mr. Pei again, I can only do it.

After all, Tengda has so many departments, and it is not realistic to find them one by one.

Everyone walked into the office area of Tengda Games, hoping to see the familiar figure of Mr. Pei here.

At this time, Hu Xianbin was scratching his head anxiously at his workstation.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw several people walking in the doorway.

When I looked up, I was instantly shocked!

Zhang Zuting? Lu Zhiyao? Huang Sibo? Zhu Xiaoce?

Aren't these the two leading actors and directors of "A Better Tomorrow"?

Hu Xianbin was overjoyed, and rushed over and grabbed Huang Sibo's hand.

"Brother Huang! Do you have telepathy? How do you know I just wanted to contact you? ”

Huang Sibo was stunned: "Contact me?" Why contact me? ”

Hu Xianbin said: "I want you to find Director Zhu and help the actors guide their acting skills!" ”

The four newcomers were all dizzy: "Acting? What acting? Tengda has been making movies again recently? ”

Hu Xianbin hurriedly explained: "It's the acting skills of motion capture actors! Mr. Pei's new game, "Struggle"! ”

While explaining, he took out the script of "Struggle" from the side and handed it to Zhang Zuting and Lu Zhiyao.

Zhang Zuting took the script, and the more he looked at it, the more exaggerated his expression became.

After a cursory reading of the first two pages of the story, Zhang Zuting slapped his thigh: "Mr. Pei has such a good book, why don't you make it into a movie?" With such a profound theme, it's hard to say how the box office will be, but it will definitely win the award! ”

Huang Sibo has a different opinion: "Uncle Zhang, this game is divided into two versions, the poor version and the rich version, there should be some special meaning here, it is not easy to deal with it when it is changed into a movie." ”

"What's so hard to deal with here, wouldn't it be nice to find a way to blend it together! The theme of exposing the gap between the rich and the poor, this is filmed with a high ceiling! Zhang Zuting still thinks it's better to make a movie.

Zhu Xiaoce played a round on the side: "It's okay Uncle Zhang, if the game is really popular, you can still consider adapting it into a movie, I believe that Mr. Pei must have some arrangements." ”

He turned his head to look at Hu Xianbin: "So, you just said that you want to direct acting?" What's going on? ”

Hu Xianbin said: "I'm having a headache about this matter. ”

"In our game this time, all scenes are captured with real motion capture, and we strive to restore every detail of the actors' expressions."

"Moreover, according to Mr. Pei's requirements, the art style of our game is relatively exaggerated, and the facial features of these characters are highlighted as much as possible."

"But in this way, the expressive requirements for the actors have also increased, because the facial characters require more exaggerated acting skills, and these motion capture actors are basically dragon actors, and they have little experience in this area......"

Zhang Zuting immediately understood: "This is easy to say, why don't I go for a trip and guide it?" I've played a lot of poor people, I've played a lot of rich people, and I can do it too, so I'll leave this matter to me! ”

Hu Xianbin was pleasantly surprised: "Really? Thank you so much! But...... Will this affect your original itinerary......"

Zhang Zuting waved his hand: "Don't get in the way, Mr. Pei has helped me so much, I will return him a favor, just pointing out some acting problems, just a gesture." ”

Hu Xianbin was overjoyed: "Then thank you so much Mr. Zhang!" ”

Zhang Zuting couldn't help but smile.

Although I didn't see Mr. Pei, I helped by accident, which is not bad!

……

……

Wednesday, June 22.

Old industrial zone of Gyeongju.

Pei Qian looked at the Thrilling Hostel that was being built rapidly and the surrounding supporting facilities, and he had a very melancholy mood in his heart inexplicably.

The progress of the project is too fast!

Pei Qian wished he could build it slowly, but no one could hear his heart.

In the past two days, Pei Qian has already come twice, mainly to find out the current situation of the Horror Hostel and prevent him from being caught off guard at that time.

It's just that after reading it, I found that the situation is really not optimistic!

The original horror hostel was just a lonely haunted house in the old industrial area, and there were basically no other supporting facilities around, which was very inconspicuous.

But now, Mr. Li and other investors are building restaurants and hotels here, and even the ground of the square outside has been renovated, plus the fountain in the center, it looks too much like that!

Although they were all renovated from the original factories in the old industrial area, after everyone cleaned up the surrounding environment, the piled up construction waste was gone, and the lush weeds were gone, and they became serious in an instant.

Although the Golden Labyrinth was still under intense renovation, it was almost the same every day, and seeing that all kinds of intricate structures had come out, Pei Qian was even more panicked.

However, fortunately, there are still several problems that have not been solved, such as how to publicize the place so that tourists from all over the country know about this place, what to do with the transportation from the city to the old industrial area, and so on.

Pei Qian walked around the Horror Lodge two more times, intending to slip away.

However, as soon as he was about to leave, he heard a surprise voice.

"Mr. Pei? I knew you said you were going to lose money here, but in fact you took it very seriously, and you could still find time out of your busy schedule to come and see! ”

The corners of Pei Qian's mouth twitched slightly, and he didn't need to look back to know that it was Mr. Li.

I have been coming secretly for the past two days, just like being a thief, just afraid that something unnecessary will happen to Mr. Li.

As a result, I was afraid of something, but I still ran into it!

Pei Qian sighed silently, turned around and smiled, "Mr. Li, good afternoon." ”

Mr. Li had a smile on his face: "Didn't Mr. Pei always know that I planned to call the investors to discuss the publicity of the Horror Hostel today, so he came here on purpose?" Mr. Pei must have a high opinion on publicity! ”

Pei Qian: "? ”

There is nothing that you are completely mistaken!

Obviously, Mr. Li and the investors also know that the current state of the Horror Hostel is not profitable, let alone recovering costs, and it is difficult to even maintain daily expenses.

Because there is not enough foot traffic.

Such a large-scale amusement park is certainly not enough to rely on the locals of Jingzhou, and needs tourists from all over the country and even from all over the world.

But how to get the word out about the Horror Hostel is a problem.

The "Great Beauty Jingzhou" feature made by the national review website before will definitely have a certain effect, but it is obviously not enough.

Pei Qian smiled: "I'm sorry Mr. Li, I still have to leave beforehand, you can talk slowly." ”

After speaking, Pei Qian got into the car and drove away.

Li Shi stood a little dazed, a little confused by the elusive Mr. Pei.

But there was nothing I could do, so I could only sigh helplessly and silently go back to discuss the publicity with the investors.
