August 4th, Thursday …
The construction of Binhu District was mostly completed!
Building 8 and 9 both had 180-degree floor-to-ceiling windows facing the park and the artificial lake. Nothing could be seen from the outside, but the scene inside the room was already worlds apart!
As for the Shundong Garden Residential-Commercial Building, it had been completed earlier because it did not need to be hard. However, the changes were not as obvious.
Liang Qingfan was on the top floor of Building 8 in Binhu District. He looked at the room that had been mostly renovated and had only one feeling in his heart: fortunately, he did not fail!
Boss Pei gave him so much money to renovate. If he did not do well, how would he have the face to be an architect?
The construction team was still doing the follow-up work.
Liang Qingfan had just inspected more than thirty houses in the two buildings in Binhu District. He found some small problems and was arranging for the construction team to solve them.
They were all his own businesses. He had to be as careful as possible to ensure that all the rooms were decorated to the standard.
In addition, Liang Qingfan also strictly followed Boss Pei's requirements. Whether it was decoration materials or furniture, he tried to use more environmentally friendly materials. There would not be excessive formaldehyde. It could meet national standards.
During the renovation period, the videographers who came to shoot from time to time had all finished. A large amount of high-definition video materials were waiting for editing and post-production.
Liang Qingfan had already decided who would edit it.
He would go directly to Fei Huang Workspace!
Fei Huang Workspace was Tengda's own business. It did not matter how much money it was. It was just a matter of the left hand moving to the right hand. Liang Qingfan mainly felt that Fei Huang Workspace would definitely be more careful than other companies.
It was important to collect materials for a video, but editing and post-production were even more important.
The videographers had recorded all the key points of the renovation process. However, the order of each shot was messy and not organized.
For a video to be liked by the audience, it had to be concise enough on the premise that the content was substantial. The narrative order was also very particular.
The meaning conveyed to the audience would be completely different if the expression was different.
Therefore, Liang Qingfan planned to go to Fei Huang Workspace first to hand over the video materials and carefully discuss the editing requirements of the video. Then, he would ask Boss Pei to come over and see if the effect of the renovation was to his liking.
The main thing was that editing could not be completed in a day or two. It had to be arranged in advance. If there were any subsequent changes, he could mention it at any time.
Liang Qingfan used a portable hard disk to bring the video materials recorded by the videographers and went directly to the office of Fei Huang Workspace.
…
At this time, Fei Huang Workspace was still conflicted about what kind of small project it should do.
Boss Pei had only given them a little more than a month. It would be very difficult to come up with something good in such a short time.
The key was that there was no goal.
Even if it was a short video, first of all, it had to be creative and have a general direction. Then, everyone had to come up with ideas together, change the script, find actors, and prepare for filming. After that, there was editing and post-production …
No matter how he looked at it, there wasn't enough time.
Of course, if everyone didn't care about the quality and just casually messed around, they would definitely be able to make it. The problem was that Fei Huang Workspace was now very famous. The short videos and documentaries that they made in the past, and the movies that they were making now, were all very well received. Wouldn't it be ruining their own brand if they just made something else and made do with it?
What's more, everyone had been in "shock" for so long, and they were all eager to show off their skills. Ordinary events were not even worth their attention.
Therefore, this matter was awkward. There were a few proposals, but they were all shelved because they couldn't satisfy everyone's demands.
Huang Sibo was also very helpless. He and Zhu Xiaoce were the people who made the final decisions. It was very painful for them to reject several proposals in a row, but there was no other way. They had no other choice to ensure the quality of the work.
However, in their helplessness, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce also understood the meaning of Boss Pei's' shock '.
In the office, Huang Sibo threw a few proposals on the table, rubbed his temples, and sighed. "Indeed, we were too optimistic before. Boss Pei's simple test stumped us.
"Before 'shock', we all thought that we were very powerful. Our movies took in the box office and won awards. All of us were very arrogant. After 'shock', we felt that we had a solid foundation and accumulated inspiration. All of us were very ambitious.
"However, Boss Pei asked us to do a small but beautiful project in a short time, and we have no clue!"
Zhu Xiaoce nodded. "That's right, because inspiration and direction are really too important.
"Our previous successful projects were all because we had good inspiration and direction. That was why we could add bricks and tiles to build skyscrapers step by step.
"All of this inspiration and direction came from Boss Pei.
"Now that Boss Pei doesn't say anything, we are immediately confused and at a loss."
At that moment, there was a knock on the office door. An employee said, "Brother Huang, a man with the surname Liang is here. He claims to be the person-in-charge of Boss Pei's Sloth Apartments project. He wants to discuss cooperation with us."
Huang Sibo was stunned, and then said, "Invite him in!"
Zhu Xiaoce was a little confused. "What's Sloth Apartments?"
Huang Sibo explained, "It's a rental project that Boss Pei is working on. However, it's more low-key. Only a few people know about it, even among the internal staff."
The Sloth Apartments' lineup was very big after all. It was impossible to keep it completely secret. Pei Qian could only try his best to keep a low profile and not make it public. However, well-informed internal staff like Huang Sibo would definitely get wind of it.
Liang Qingfan was led to Huang Sibo's office and shook hands with Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce warmly.
Naturally, both sides flattered each other.
After sitting down, Liang Qingfan took a sip of tea as he explained the purpose of his visit.
"You want us to edit and produce a documentary?" Huang Sibo was a little surprised.
They were quite good at documentaries. After all, they had done a documentary on esports players before. Everyone was very familiar with the process.
However, what was puzzling was why would they make a documentary about a rental project?
Liang Qingfan took out a portable hard disk. "Actually, this was a spur of the moment idea. I didn't have this intention at first.
"The main thing is that the house that Boss Pei found is really … unique. I think the transformation process is very interesting and worth recording.
"Both of you will understand everything after watching the video."
Zhu Xiaoce took a laptop. Liang Qingfan began to play the video while talking about the building's past and present, including the idea of the transformation and some interesting things that happened during the transformation process.
At first, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce did not think much of it. However, after watching the video, both of them saw the shock on each other's faces.
How could this work?
The originally shabby and dilapidated house had actually been renovated into such a fairy-like one?
This house was actually bought for five hundred thousand yuan?
Five hundred thousand yuan! We f * cking bought it!
Of course, it was too dilapidated when they bought it. No one lived in it for a few years. That was why the price was lower. In fact, the renovation, furniture, and design expenses for the transformation of the house were higher than the value of the house itself.
"Mr. Liang is really a master designer. I didn't expect this house to be transformed to this extent!" Huang Sibo was sincerely convinced.
Liang Qingfan waved his hand. "Actually, I'm just making use of this as a pretext.
"If Boss Pei did not have the foresight to take a liking to this oddball apartment, give me such a huge renovation budget, and strictly follow the minimalist style, I would definitely not have considered in this direction.
"That's why I think that the most precious thing about this house is not the renovation or my design. It's the embodiment of Boss Pei's philosophy!"
"My design is just a concrete expression of Boss Pei's philosophy."
"This is also the reason why I came to visit the two of you.
"On one hand, I have a lot of trust in Fei Huang Workspace's ability. We are all subordinate departments of Tengda Corporation. The quality is guaranteed.
"On the other hand, I think only the two of you can feel Boss Pei's philosophy like I do and express it well in the video.
"So, what do the two of you mean?"
Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce exchanged a look and nodded decisively. "Alright, we'll accept it!"
The timing was too coincidental. Huang Sibo even suspected that Boss Pei was secretly instructing him to do so.
Fei Huang Workspace had only been out of shock therapy for two days and was worrying about what project to do. Liang Qingfan had come knocking on their door?
The timing was just right!
Moreover, Liang Qingfan had brought the video material with him. There was no need for filming, only editing and processing. There was plenty of time.
Most importantly, the video material contained Boss Pei's philosophy!
What was everyone's biggest headache now?
It was not that there was no plan, but that no one could reach a consensus on all the plans.
However, no one would have any disagreement on this video because it was Boss Pei's idea!
Seeing that Huang Sibo agreed immediately, Liang Qingfan was elated. "That's great!
I'll briefly state my opinion first. The two of you can choose to adopt it. After all, you are the professionals.
"I think the process of the transformation is more important than the result.
"It's best to show the details of the transformation in detail so that the audience can feel Boss Pei's philosophy from these details.
"I think the length of the video should be about forty minutes."
Zhu Xiaoce pondered for a moment. "Yes, that's the safest way.
"However …
"Will this meet Boss Pei's expectations?"
Zhu Xiaoce's question stumped Liang Qingfan.
This was a very serious question.
