After listening to Zhu Xiaoce's words, everyone became lively.
That's right, it would be such a waste to stay at home every day and waste such a good opportunity!
Director Zhu Xiaoce graduated from a professional school. What's more, he contributed the most to Tomorrow is Beautiful after Boss Pei. Yet, he did not become complacent. Instead, he continued to push himself to improve. There was no reason for us to indulge ourselves!
With Zhu Xiaoce's lead, the rest of Fei Huang Workspace quickly understood this logic.
According to common sense, paid leave should be a good rest and a good relaxation.
It was really silly to think about learning, improving, and improving all day while on leave.
It would not be called paid leave, but paid study.
However, this matter had to be analyzed in detail.
Others' paid leave was because they were busy with work, and their bodies were about to fall ill. That was why they needed to rest.
However, everyone in Fei Huang Workspace did not lack rest at all!
Everyone was indeed quite tired during the filming, post-production, and publicity of Tomorrow is Beautiful, but everyone had enough rest in the second half of the movie's release!
They did not do anything at work every day and just looked at the box office on Gou Yan and laughed foolishly.
They might still be working, but they played games, watched dramas, and ate snacks every day. Their previous fatigue had long been relieved.
At this time, everyone wanted to find something to do.
Boss Pei's so-called 'shock therapy' only meant that everyone was not allowed to work. He did not restrict anything else!
It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to use this time to learn and improve themselves with the company paying them a salary!
If they were to study after resigning, they would have to consider living expenses and savings. It would be difficult to completely devote themselves to study without any distractions.
What about now? They would still be paid, and there would be no worries!
Moreover, Zhu Xiaoce's words also awakened everyone's sense of crisis.
Tomorrow is Beautiful was indeed successful, but this success had a certain element of chance. It did not mean that this team was worthy of more than two hundred million yuan in the box office.
What would they do if the next movie failed?
Most people had just stood at the peak, and they did not want to imagine falling to the bottom so quickly.
Therefore, they had to improve themselves!
In order to be more successful and not let Boss Pei down, they had to use this period of time to learn and improve so that they could not rely on Boss Pei in the future and still produce movies that would hit the box office!
The atmosphere in the group became lively.
"Where are we going for advanced studies?"
"I've heard that some universities have set up advanced classes for directing, specifically recruiting people with experience in film and television work. A year's curriculum has been compressed into four years of professional courses for undergraduates. The teachers are also very outstanding. You can really learn a lot!
"No, this course seems to take a year. We only have a few months."
"Er, it is useful for us, but it is useless for Director Zhu, right? After all, in terms of box office sales, not to mention students of the same grade, even professors might not necessarily have a higher box office than him … "
Zhu Xiaoce said, "Everyone, please don't have that kind of mentality. We have indeed achieved some results, but those professors and teachers are all seniors in the industry. Don't think that you've become arrogant just because you've shot two films. You must respect your seniors. "
Huang Sibo agreed, "That's right, there's always someone to learn from. Even ordinary people have their own merits, let alone a professor from the Film and Television Department."
Zhu Xiaoce: "In terms of time, I suggest that you choose Handong University's Advanced Advanced Course in Directing. Classes are held on Saturdays and Sundays, and the duration is two years."
"That way, even after Fei Huang Workspace's' shock therapy 'is over, we can still attend classes on the weekends.
"Of course, this so-called 'advanced course' is much more than you think. That's why I have arranged some related learning for everyone apart from attending classes.
"When you have no classes, everyone must watch and learn a movie every day. Write a film review and analysis. Every week, you must also read a book on film and television, write your reading notes, and …
"I will go back to school and ask my teacher for the specific arrangements. I will assign them to everyone after we finalize the content."
Everyone could rest assured with Zhu Xiaoce's arrangements.
After all, he was a professional. Even if there were some things he was not clear about, he could go back to Handong University to ask his tutors and professors.
What's more, he had already filmed a movie like Tomorrow is Beautiful. The school had already invited him to give lectures to his juniors several times. This was not a big request.
Huang Sibo had this request too.
After all, he had switched from the gaming industry. During the process of filming, he had always felt that his foundation was weak. There were many things he did not understand.
Before this, he had been busy with all aspects of work and helping Director Zhu Xiaoce with various trivial matters. That was why he did not have time to learn and advance.
Now, he could finally make up for his shortcomings!
At that thought, he actually felt a little excited.
Just as Huang Sibo was feeling excited, he received a message.
"Eh?"
"The payment has been received!"
…
In the office, Pei Qian yawned and prepared to go home.
After making arrangements for Rui Yuchen and Fish-Catching Take-Out, Pei Qian felt that the pressure on him to earn money had decreased.
However, just as he was about to leave the office, he received a message from Huang Sibo on his cell phone.
"Boss Pei, the payment for the movie has been received!"
Pei Qian's heart skipped a beat.
So fast?!
He might have used shock therapy to settle Fei Huang Workspace, but he had not settled the box office of the movie!
In an instant, more than 70 million yuan had been transferred to the company's account.
Pei Qian felt melancholy again. He felt that the burden on his body had become heavier.
This Fei Huang Workspace only knows how to create trouble for me!
Although he had already known that such a sum of money would be transferred to his account, it was two or three days earlier than expected. That still made Pei Qian very unhappy.
He put his cell phone in his pocket and pretended not to see it.
"Huang Sibo is a jinx. Nothing good ever comes to me! I'll just ignore him.
"Hmph, fortunately, I've already made arrangements for this sum of money.
"Otherwise, I would have been dealt a blow."
Pei Qian decided to go out tomorrow and settle this sum of money at the speed of light. Out of sight, out of mind!
…
Half an hour later, Huang Sibo looked at his cell phone.
There was still no reply from Boss Pei.
"Sigh, Boss Pei seems to be busy again."
Huang Sibo was a little melancholic. He had wanted to wait for Boss Pei's reply so that he could give a simple report on the learning arrangements during this period.
However, Boss Pei did not reply for a long time. Huang Sibo kept his words in his heart.
After calming down for half an hour and thinking carefully, Huang Sibo changed his mind.
He felt that he should not and did not need to report these things.
If it was an ordinary boss who knew that his employees were quietly learning and improving their skills, there would only be two reactions: first, he was not satisfied with work and had free time to do other things; second, he wanted to change jobs.
That would only lead to more inhumane exploitation.
Of course, Huang Sibo knew very well that Boss Pei was definitely not such a boss.
Boss Pei was a good boss who highly valued his employees' rest time and personal space. Moreover, none of Tengda's employees wanted to change jobs.
Since that was the case, every employee would improve themselves in their spare time not only to better complete the tasks given by Boss Pei but also to realize their own value.
However, there was still no need to report it.
That was because Huang Sibo felt that such things should be expected in Tengda. Why should he report it to Boss Pei?
It would only make him look like he was asking for credit.
Boss Pei did not like employees who asked for credit.
At that thought, Huang Sibo decisively dispelled this thought and began to discuss the next training plan with the others in Fei Huang Workspace's group chat.
…
…
April 12th, Tuesday …
Pei Qian sat in the car. The map on his phone showed the destination: Jingzhou's Dawn of Prosperous City.
This was a high-end property in Jingzhou.
There were two main reasons why Pei Qian had his eyes on it. First, it was closer to the company and could be reached within a twenty-minute walk. Second, it had a building that suited Pei Qian very much.
Of course, he could only confirm it when he arrived at the site.
Pei Qian had already thought of where he would use the money that Tomorrow is Beautiful earned.
Buy a building!
Of course, Boss Pei was not buying a building in the ordinary sense of the word.
The System did not allow Pei Qian to speculate in real estate, but it did not prohibit him from using the System Funds to buy a building in the name of the company. The difference was whether the building was used for production or not.
Take Ming Yun Private Kitchen's commercial and residential villa for example. It would not work if he bought it and left it there. However, he could open a restaurant there.
This time, Pei Qian planned to buy a building and create a rental brand.
He had even thought of a name: 'Sloth Apartments'.
There were three benefits to building this new business:
Buying a building could quickly consume a large amount of System Funds. Pei Qian's initial System Funds was 20 million yuan, and the conversion of fixed assets was 10%. In other words, it would be acceptable for Pei Qian to spend 60 to 70 million yuan on a building.
This apartment could be used as employee benefits. At the same time, Pei Qian could move in himself and use the System Funds for reimbursement.
Renovation, purchase of furniture, daily cleaning, maintenance, utilities, and the like could further create more losses.
Of course, there were definitely risks.
The risk was that if this brand became popular and people fought to rent it, he would earn again.
Of course, Pei Qian had considered this problem long ago and thought of a way to prevent profits.
The first was the type of the house, and the second was the price.
He could tell from the floor plan on his cell phone that the house in the Dawn of Jingzhou's Shengjing City was a very rare 'high-end' floor plan.
It had 360 degrees of lighting without any blind spots and was completely transparent from east, west, north, and south!
It absorbed sunlight during the day and moonlight at night. The entire building was like a cylinder.
It gathered the essence of heaven and earth and shone as brightly as the sun and moon. It could be said to be the fighter plane of all-bright houses.
Pei Qian wanted to complain when he saw this floor plan. This floor plan was very suitable for growing sunflowers. He could walk around in circles and bask in the sun every day. He would not miss a single minute of sunlight.
However, this type of floor plan was more in line with Boss Pei's requirements!
