Pei Qian thought hard and had a friendly and harmonious conversation with the System. Finally, he decided on two directions.
Housing and fitness.
In fact, Tengda already had corresponding benefits for these two projects. There were subsidies for housing, and there were reimbursements for fitness and a certain number of private training sessions.
However, the current amount of benefits seemed to be unable to meet Boss Pei's needs.
Pei Qian only had one feeling now: earning money like a landslide and spending money like spinning silk!
Of course, it seemed like a good choice to let all employees share this pain. However, there was obviously a limit to this sharing.
Pei Qian wanted to buy buildings on a large scale so that all employees could live in mansions, but it obviously could not pass the System.
That was why Pei Qian had taken a step back and used housing subsidies as a replacement.
Now that Tengda Corporation was getting bigger and making more money, the System's restrictions on employee benefits were gradually loosening.
The idea of giving each employee a mansion was still restricted, but it seemed like he could use other methods to achieve it.
Pei Qian had already discovered that the System had different restrictions on different ways of spending money.
'Charity' had the strictest restrictions. There was only a small amount of money every cycle.
'Welfare' had a slightly looser restriction. The standards would continue to increase as the company expanded, and it could benefit all employees.
'Reimbursement' had a looser restriction, but there had to be a justifiable reason. It had to look like it was related to work needs.
'Investment' had the loosest restrictions. There seemed to be no upper limit to the amount of money invested. The main restriction was to leave a profit point so that the project could theoretically make money.
In some very special circumstances, the System would not stop even if the possibility of making money was very small. As long as it could obtain a good reputation and social influence, the System would not stop it. For example, Huang Sibo's documentary and Upwind Logistics which had been incurring losses.
Therefore, there were many restrictions if he wanted to simply use 'welfare' or 'reimbursement' to provide housing for his employees.
Even if he could do it, it would probably be four-person or two-person at most. It would be difficult to raise the standards in all aspects.
However, if he thought about it from another perspective and used the 'investment' method, the System's standards would be much more relaxed!
For example, Pei Qian could use this money to invest in a condominium project, spend money to renovate it, and then set a price to rent it out to the outside world.
The system wouldn't be too strict if he used some of the rooms as staff dormitories.
It was just like how it would be troublesome for Pei Qian to prepare meals for his employees. However, he could set up Fish-Catching Take-Out first, get it to provide meals for his employees, and then claim reimbursement from the company's accounts. That would not be a problem.
It would be even better if he could not rent it out to the outside world. Boss Pei could even take the opportunity to make a huge loss.
As for why he chose housing and fitness …
Because these two projects both had physical entities, they had to pay renovation fees and rent, and the maintenance and operation costs were higher. Since they were both spending money, the possibility of them losing money was higher.
What's more, Pei Qian would be able to bask in the limelight and move to a new place to stay!
Although the current place was not bad, it was just an ordinary two-bedroom apartment.
As a homebody, Pei Qian naturally hoped that he could live in a bigger place with better conditions.
Looking at the current situation, hoping to buy a big house at a loss seemed a little far-fetched.
What's more, after some consideration, Pei Qian felt that there was no need to use his own money to buy a house if it was just for the sake of living.
Even if the house belonged to the company, it didn't matter if it was mine as long as I can live in it and do whatever I want.
After thinking for a long time, Pei Qian added the two projects' apartment 'and' gym 'to the plan for the next cycle.
It would definitely be too late for this cycle.
On one hand, it was because there was still more than a month to settlement. It was too late to start these projects now. Thriller Hostel could not be completed in this cycle. Adding another project that could not be completed would affect settlement.
On the other hand, it was because the payment for the movie would not arrive so soon.
Most movies would be released for a month before the box office figures could be determined. Then, the box office revenue would be collected from the cinemas to the cinemas. After going through several links and a whole process, it could take three to six months.
However, there were also companies in the film industry in this world that had 'fast settlement and payment' companies. It was similar to bank factoring. They would pay in advance according to the box office sharing contract and charge a portion of the processing fees.
To put it bluntly, it was similar to the 'fast refund' of many shopping websites.
However, even so, he would only receive the money in the next cycle.
This was good news for Pei Qian because he would not have to bear such heavy pressure in this cycle. He would have to spend tens of millions in less than a month …
However, the pressure in the next cycle would be huge.
Therefore, Pei Qian decided to spend the 'windfall' from the movie on the apartment and gym projects at the beginning of the next cycle.
As for the additional money that other industries earned because of the influence of the movie …
Apart from the regular expenses, it seemed like he could only mindlessly spend it on the Thriller Hostel project.
On the premise that the Thriller Hostel could be completed and opened normally in the next settlement cycle, he would try to absorb as much extra funds as possible …
Pei Qian threw the small notebook aside, feeling a little lost.
…
…
February 25th, Friday …
It was the fourth day since he decided to disappear …
Pei Qian browsed the web, feeling like the sun was setting in the west and the momentum was gone.
The activities of the fake reviewers had obviously started to go downhill. That was because the activities of the fake reviewers had not only failed to achieve the desired effect but also made Tomorrow is Beautiful more and more popular!
It looked like the competitors who hired the fake reviewers had also retreated and did not want to spend this money again.
Pei Qian glanced at the Gou Yan application. It seemed like … the showtimes had increased again!
This was really a sad story.
Pei Qian and his competitors should be feeling the same at this time.
Pei Qian quietly uninstalled the Gou Yan application with the mentality that out of sight, out of mind.
In short, the box office did not exist as long as I did not see it!
Pei Qian had been cooped up in the rental house for the past few days. He was a little bored and subconsciously opened Weibo, wanting to find the latest hot news on it and see if the flamers had any new creations to slightly adjust his depressed mood.
However, he saw three trending topics as soon as he opened Weibo.
# Movie Tomorrow is Beautiful #
# Lu Zhiyao's acting skills #
# Tomorrow is Beautiful Reality Brand #
Pei Qian: "…"
The ghost was lingering!
The last two trending topics did not seem to be there yesterday!
Pei Qian casually clicked on the topic # Lu Zhiyao's acting skills # and saw an interview draft.
…
"Interview with Lu Zhiyao: A breakthrough in acting was due to a noble person's guidance."
"Tomorrow is Beautiful was released on February 22nd. A satirical story with a futuristic sci-fi theme broke the audience's stereotype of domestically-produced sci-fi movies. The box office broke 80 million yuan in four days and caused a heated discussion on the internet.
"Lu Zhiyao's acting skills were superb in the film. He vividly portrayed the emotions of a person from the future. His scenes with the veteran Best Actor Zhang Zuting were even more thrilling to the audience.
"During the roadshow, he heard an audience comment that 'the person on the screen was completely forgotten by the end of the movie'. That was the highest comment he had received so far.
"[Tomorrow is Beautiful Lu Zhiyao Poster]
"Lu Zhiyao's' toxicity in the box office 'has always been a topic of discussion. The audience summed up all kinds of curses. It seems that all movies that Lu Zhiyao participated in, regardless of whether there was a famous director or a big production, could not escape the misfortune of the box office.
"If there was a hint of mockery in this statement, then the audience's discussion of 'whether Lu Zhiyao has acting skills' was even sharper and more ear-piercing.
"Comments such as' overexerting ',' acting like himself ', and' making people lose their acting skills' were constantly bothering Lu Zhiyao. He was tormented after every movie was released.
"However, the huge success of Tomorrow is Beautiful had completely 'washed away the toxicity' of Lu Zhiyao. The box office results so far had also dispelled the 'toxicity in the box office' claim!
"[The scene of Lu Zhiyao drinking beer in the movie]
"Lu Zhiyao felt emotional about this. At many stages in an actor's life, they would encounter roles that were extremely important to them. They would also meet people who would be of great help to their career.
"During the filming of Tomorrow is Beautiful, Lu Zhiyao benefited a lot from his scenes with the veteran Best Actor Zhang Zuting. He learned how to figure out the character's psychology, how to immerse himself in the role, and other deep acting skills.
"More importantly, there was a benefactor on the set who pointed out the problems in Lu Zhiyao's performance. He suddenly realized that an actor should not work hard to play a role. Instead, he should let himself become the role.
"Lu Zhiyao said that this person not only brought him an epiphany in acting but also gave him a new understanding of life planning and even life philosophy.
"The transition from an idol star to a mature and capable actor was not easy, but he had been working hard. Lu Zhiyao now said that he preferred complicated and human-like roles. He would play out more of the weaknesses and shortcomings of the role. Correspondingly, his performance had also changed from flamboyant to reserved.
"In terms of life planning, Lu Zhiyao said that he wanted to slow down and take every step steadily. Just like what the person said, 'normal acting is the most difficult'. 'Act like what the role is.'
"In terms of life philosophy, he should focus on his job as an actor. He should constantly hone his acting skills and not put his energy in things that have nothing to do with his job.
"Lu Zhiyao, who was enlightened by the person, finally found his way as an actor.
