After hanging up the phone, Pei Qian found Ruan Guangjian's phone number.

However, before calling, Pei Qian first searched for the keyword "shared phone booth" in Qiandu on a whim.

Soon, there were a lot of search results, a large part of which came from the local people's post bars, forums and Weibo in Beijing.

"Today a genius really came up with a brilliant entrepreneurial idea, sharing a phone booth! After scanning the code, you can go in and make a call! ”

"Neurotic, there is a mobile phone to scan the code, is it not good to use the mobile phone to call?"

"I died laughing, and I took a group photo, which felt like a performance art. [Photos]"

"This broken phone booth is quite big, but how does it feel like it was made by hand? Is this really a product of industrial production? The details are a bit unsophisticated. ”

"It's ...... Paid to go to jail, and let people watch through the glass? ”

Pei Qian glanced at it, and his heart became more steady.

Look, the eyes of the masses are bright!

Since this phone booth is so unfavored and unprofitable, let Ruan Guangjian draw a few more and make this phone booth a cultural symbol of pure public welfare.

Well, Meizizi!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian dialed Ruan Guangjian's phone.

……

……

Monday, January 10th.

Ruan Guangjian temporarily settled down the work of Yuyang Games, and gave the art team and outsourcing art team of Yuyang Games a revision suggestion, so he went to the nearby art equipment market to buy brushes, paints and other necessary materials, and rushed to Huanyu Tianjie.

Because it's a Monday, there will be less foot traffic in the mall.

But even so, there are still quite a few people taking pictures next to the shared phone booths.

Probably after the news of this sand sculpture of the "shared phone booth" spread yesterday, many people came here.

As soon as Ruan Quang Jian came up from the escalator, he saw a muscular man with a strong body and long hair coming up.

"Master! Hello hello hello! ”

"The master is so young, there is a big gap between him and what he imagined."

Zhang Yu had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Ruan Guangjian carrying various painting tools, he immediately determined that this was the artist invited by Mr. Pei.

It's just that from the appearance, Ruan Guangjian does not have long hair and beards like those artists in Zhang's imagination, and there are no decorations such as earrings, studs, tattoos, etc., and he looks clean and neat, no different from an ordinary student.

On the contrary, Zhang Yu's long hair is fluttering, but it is more in line with the image of an artist that is generally perceived.

Ruan Guangjian looked at the shared phone booth, which looked no different from the photo, but he saw it with his own eyes, and his senses would feel bigger.

After Ruan Guangjian finished looking up and down the phone booth, Zhang Yu asked with some expectation: "Master, how long does it take to paint such a painting?" ”

Ruan Guangjian thought for a while: "This can't be generalized. ”

"Painting is a creative work, and the time varies greatly. If it is a simple oil painting, the things to be painted have been conceived in advance, and the painter's technique is relatively skilled, then it may be completed in about ten hours. ”

"However, if a master paints a high-level oil painting, it may be a year, three years, or five years, and there is no upper limit."

"There is no upper limit to the time it can take to source, create, and revise."

Zhang Yu hurriedly said: "Three years and five years? That's definitely not necessary, just draw casually. Master, the painting is so good, I'm worried that someone will steal it. ”

"After all, this phone booth is detachable."

"But with the help of the security guards of the big shopping mall, this possibility is very small, haha."

Zhang Yu told a bad joke, and Ruan Guangjian didn't get his laughter very well.

But at least one thing is clear, that this painting certainly doesn't need to be painted so finely, and it doesn't need to be treated as a top-notch work of art.

However, it must not be too improvised, after all, Mr. Pei is generous and a confidant and friend, how can he pit Mr. Pei.

Ruan Guangjian thought for a while: "I heard that this is just the first one, a total of 20 phone booths will be drawn?" ”

Zhang Yu nodded: "Yes, those are still in production." ”

Ruan Guangjian looked at the dimensions of the telephone booth and asked, "Do you have any ideas for painting on what subject?" ”

Zhang Yu shook his head violently, highlighting an unassertive one: "No!" It's up to you what you want to draw! ”

Ruan Guangjian thought about it carefully: "Hmm...... Twenty paintings are required, and the amount of work required for each one is not small. ”

"After all, this painting is nearly two meters high, and the workload must be at least three to four times that of a normal oil painting."

"Even if I can paint it in my own style, I don't have to pay so much attention to details, and it will take three or four days to complete this painting."

"And that's on the premise that I'm very familiar with what I'm going to draw, and I'm very proficient."

"What's more, this phone booth is a project invested by Mr. Pei, and the subject matter of the painting has to be more or less related to Mr. Pei's company, right?"

"If you think about it this way, it doesn't seem like there are many themes that match it......"

"There it is!"

Ruan Guangjian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a good idea.

You can draw GOG hero artwork!

It just so happens that there are more than twenty heroes of the first GOG, and their original drawings have already been completed.

The shape and design of these original paintings were all completed by Ruan Guangjian, and after repeated revisions, he is also familiar with the road again.

Moreover, these original paintings belong to Tengda's new game, and this phone booth is also the industry of Pei's total investment, and there is a very close connection between the two.

The original painting of the hero, compared with the theme of traditional oil painting, is also more intimate and interested in young people who come to the mall to consume.

The more Ruan Guangjian thought about it, the more he felt that it was appropriate.

The only thing to change is the specific form of expression of the original painting.

Originally, GOG's original drawings were very detailed and figurative, because the modeler needed to create the game model according to the original drawing, and if some parts of the drawing were blurred, the modeler had to fill in the details.

However, the paintings here can be seen as concept drawings and promotional images, which can be more artistic.

Ruan Guangjian considered using his own style and impasto technique, on the one hand, he could blur out those details and save time, and on the other hand, he could also enhance the artistry of the painting and make it easier to attract people's attention.

Thinking of this, Ruan Quang Jian was ready to start work.

As for which hero from GOG should be depicted in the first original painting......

Do you still need to think about it?

……

In the office, Pei Qian yawned.

There are less than three months left until settlement.

There are many projects going on at the same time, but by next week, the movie should be officially completed, and the rough cut version will be available before the end of the month; At the current pace, GOG will be able to test the waters in its closed beta version at the end of the month.

On the other side of the haunted house, it is definitely impossible to finish them all, and the two largest projects may not be able to be completed before this settlement, but the small projects of the second big project should be able to do one or two by the end of this month.

When the time comes, let Ruan Guangjian experience it first and kill his sharpness!

In short, Pei Qian looked at the schedule, this week should be a relatively quiet week in the future, so he had to hurry up and hurry up to read the book and review it.

In case Lao Ma passes by his own ability, but Mr. Pei still has to rely on krypton gold to pass, wouldn't it be very shameless?

Look at the school sister Xiao Tang again, in addition to shoveling feces and feeding and taking care of cats every day, people have been sitting at the workstation and reading quietly.

Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, if only I could spend money to hire someone else to study for me." ”

"I can only say that knowledge is priceless!"

Pei Qian sighed with emotion, and found that another half an hour had passed, so he hurriedly opened his notes and began to review.

After watching for less than an hour, there was a knock on the door outside.

Pei Qian looked up and saw that it was a group of horses.

"What's the matter?" Mr. Pei, who was interrupted from studying, was a little unhappy, but he also knew that the group of horses didn't come often, and there must be something serious when he came, so he didn't say much.

Ma Yiqun said: "That's the case, Mr. Pei." The end Chinese net has made another amount of money during this time......"

Pei Qian: "??? ”

Can you always make money sneakily and without saying a word? Wouldn't it be okay for me to prepare mentally in advance?

Pei Qian originally thought that he could be a little more relaxed this week, but it turned out to be complicated again.

From its inception to the present, the terminal Chinese network has gone through several stages of development, and now it has turned losses into profits.

Increase the price of full attendance from the beginning and protect the rights and interests of low-level writers;

Later, middle-level authors were subsidized so that they could earn the same level of income as the high-quality authors of Infinite Chinese Network;

Later, it was linked with "Turning Back to the Shore", unified the Tengda account, and diverted a large number of Tengda game players to the website.

After this period of operation, the traffic of the website has risen, although the overall website scale and the income of the head author are still not comparable to the infinite Chinese network, but at least the middle and low-level authors are still living a good life.

As a result, how to spend the money earned becomes a problem.

"Don't turn it in, just spend it yourself." Pei Qian adhered to the principle of "who pollutes, who governs, who makes money, and who spends", and made a less distracted comment on Ma Qun's report.

"Ah, okay Mr. Pei." Ma Yiqun knew that Mr. Pei would most likely react in this way, but what Mr. Pei said was one thing, and what he did was another.

Even if you know that Mr. Pei will most likely let the website invest this money in the construction of the website, this process of asking for instructions still cannot be saved.

After all, this is not the same as a website to engage in linkage activities, which involves a sum of money.

If it is a linkage activity with "Turning Back to the Shore" like before, Ma Qunqun, as the person in charge of the website, can make his own decision, because it doesn't cost much.

"Wait a minute."

Ma Yiqun just wanted to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Mr. Pei.

Pei Qian asked casually: "Where are you going to spend this money?" ”

Originally, he didn't plan to ask about these things, but Pei Qian suddenly realized that it seemed that he couldn't just ask......

Let the group of horses go and spend money on their own, who can guarantee that he will definitely spend the money where it is useless!

Therefore, Pei Qian decided to ask a few more questions.

Ma Yiyi smiled and said, "Mr. Pei, I have thought about it." ”

"Now our website is very attractive to middle and low-level authors, and it has also attracted some loyal players of Tengda games, and the popularity of the game channel is very high, forming a kind of 'enclosure self-sprouting' effect."

"I think the key at the moment is the lack of top authors!"

"Therefore, I consider using this money to go to Infinite Chinese to dig up a few top-level authors who are not very satisfied with the current situation, especially some authors who are unpopular, powerful and not very valued."

"Great gods may not be easy to dig, but those authors who earn 350,000 a month and are difficult to become great gods, as long as they are willing to spend money, they should still be able to dig a few."

Pei Qian fell silent.

Sounds very reliable!

Indeed, the biggest problem of the end Chinese network now is that the ceiling of the website is low, and there is no super explosive book that can form a hot spot on the whole network.

The low-level and middle-level authors are doing well, but the website's god-making ability is basically zero.

If you can tap a few potential authors in a targeted manner, choose a book with the best data, and then use the resources of the whole network to push it wildly......

Maybe it can really make the end Chinese network go further!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian coughed lightly twice and said, "It's not appropriate." ”

"The real god relies on real hard power, and relies on good works to unite readers, rather than counting on website resources to pile them out."

"Digging authors from other stations must be bought out at a high price, and for authors, the changes in the water and soil and the change of the readership group may not be able to continue the previous popularity; For websites, the cost performance of buying out at a high price is very poor, and it is difficult to guarantee benefits. ”

"If you sign a buyout and ask for the data of the book to meet the standards, it is a bit of a hooligan, and it is actually morally untenable. For the author, it is not very attractive. ”

"In short, this approach cannot be said to be wrong, but it is not quite in line with the development direction of the end Chinese network."

"In my opinion, this money might as well continue to be spent on middle and bottom authors. If you want to create a god, you can dig from your own author group, why do you have to dig in the outer station? ”
