Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 1030: Boss Pei Liked The Proposal

Lin Jiaqiang felt like his acting spirit had been revived and was burning. What’s more, Tengda was so generous. He was already prepared to shoot the same scene many times.

After a moment of silence, Meng Chang said, “Very good! This is the effect I want! Let’s leave it at that for today. We’ll wrap up once we’re done!”

Everyone was stunned.

Yu Yao was a little surprised. “Huh? We’ve only filmed one version, right? Brother Meng, we have to film another version no matter what and choose a better one of the two versions.”

Meng Chang shook his head. “There’s no need for that at all.” This chapt????r is updat????d by novelenglish.net . ꜰire

“There is a limit to a person’s inspiration. Many classic scenes are performed in a flash of inspiration. Forcefully acting a few more times would not be of much help to improve the effect. Instead, it would waste precious time.”

“Since we’ve already met the requirements, there’s no need to waste time reshooting. Today’s filming has been completed. Everyone, hurry up and finish the post-production!”

Everyone looked at Yu Yao.

Yu Yao was the next decision maker other than Meng Chang.

Yu Yao thought for a moment. “Er... Brother Meng makes sense. I remember Boss Pei saying something similar before.”

“Since Brother Meng thinks there’s no problem, then there’s no problem. Let’s wrap up!”

Once he gave the order, the staff immediately began to pack up.

Lin Jiaqiang was confused. “Boss Meng, Boss Lin, I...”

Meng Chang smiled and patted him on the shoulder. “Your acting today was especially good. You’ve completed the mission perfectly! I’ll arrange for someone to bring you around to play in Jingzhou for the next few days. I hope you can have fun!”

Lin Jiaqiang opened his mouth. He wanted to say something but he did not speak in the end.

Since the client was satisfied and he had already received his remuneration, it would definitely not be appropriate for him to insist on filming again as an actor!

Of course, Lin Jiaqiang was not dissatisfied. He just felt that this money was too easy to earn and felt a little uneasy...

...

At four in the afternoon, in the Advertising Department.

Meng Chang yawned as he ate his snacks.

“Brother Meng, the rough cut version is out. Please take a look.” Yu Yao sent a video file.

After filming was done, Meng Chang immediately arranged for the preliminary editing and voice-over in the post-production. The post-production team was also very efficient. They were done in less than an hour.

Of course, this was a rough cut. The official version would take some time.

Meng Chang opened the video file and quickly watched it.

It showed what he wanted to do very well. The only flaw was that Lin Jiaqiang’s acting skills were too good, making the promotional video look a little outstanding.

However, it did not affect the essence of the publicity video.

Meng Chang nodded. “Yes, good. That’s the effect. We just have to deal with the details.”

Yu Yao nodded and went back to work.

Meng Chang had nothing to do while eating his snacks. Suddenly, he had an idea.

“Should I send this rough cut video to Boss Pei?”

“I wonder how Boss Pei would react?”

Meng Chang still remembered that when he went to look for Boss Pei at the end of the month, Boss Pei said bitterly that Meng Chang could discuss the proposal with him.

His heartache was real, but it did look fake.

Meng Chang suddenly thought that would Boss Pei be so angry that his expression changed on the spot if he showed this ridiculous publicity video to him?

Meng Chang would feel like he had taken revenge for the arrow he shot at the commission even though he might be scolded!

The more Meng Chang thought about it, the more excited he became. He immediately copied the video onto his cell phone and got up to go to the 16th floor to show the video to Boss Pei.

...

A moment later, Meng Chang came to Boss Pei’s office and knocked lightly.

“Enter.”

Meng Chang smiled and tidied his appearance before walking in with his head held high.

Pei Qian was a little surprised to see Meng Chang because he rarely saw Meng Chang except at the end of the month.

“What’s the matter?” Pei Qian asked.

Meng Chang said, “Boss Pei, didn’t you bring me to see the smart fitness drying rack two days ago? The publicity video is out, I specially brought it over for you to see. After all, you told me previously that I should report and communicate with you more after I come up with the publicity plan.”

Meng Chang was already trying hard to sound sarcastic.

However, Pei Qian did not seem to understand his sarcasm at all. He looked elated. “Eh, so efficient?”

“It looks like you’ve completely walked out of your previous failure. Very good, very good.”

“This means that you are very self-regulating. This setback will not crush you. I admire your tenacious and unyielding character!”

“Where’s the video? Show it to me.”

Pei Qian was indeed very happy. No matter what, Meng Chang had learned to discuss with him before making a decision. He was no longer trying to stir up trouble and disappearing instantly after failing. That was undoubtedly a good sign.

Meng Chang handed his cell phone over.

Pei Qian clicked on the video.

Meng Chang stood at the side and carefully observed Boss Pei’s expression.

In his imagination, Boss Pei’s expression should change from a smile to silence, then to confusion, and finally to a livid expression.

That was because, as far as he knew, the research and development of the automatic fitness drying rack had cost a lot of money. What’s more, this thing was expensive and heavy. It would cost a lot to create stocks and logistics. In addition, the game, Battle of the Fitness, had invested a lot of resources and manpower. This project was obviously a key project within Tengda.

Yet, such an important project that he had high hopes for had made such an unreliable publicity video. Not only did it fail to hit the nail on the head, but it had also secretly dissuaded the audience. Could Boss Pei tolerate this?

However, Meng Chang knew very well that even if Boss Pei could not tolerate it, he could not do anything about it.

The contract was written very clearly in black and white. Meng Chang was in charge of everything in the marketing department. Boss Pei could not interfere forcefully.

Therefore, no matter how angry Boss Pei was, he could only be useless and furious. Apart from scolding Meng Chang, there was nothing he could do.

Meng Chang could not help but feel a little smug.

What was wrong with being scolded? It was not like he would lose a piece of flesh. However, Boss Pei’s losses were real!

Meng Chang waited expectantly for Boss Pei to break through his defense.

Boss Pei watched the video from beginning to end. Then, he watched it again.

Then, his expression suddenly became ecstatic. He raised his thumb. “Awesome!”

“Meng Chang, I knew you were a genius!”

“There is indeed improvement compared to before!”

“However, there’s still a flaw in it. Lin Jiaqiang’s acting skills are a little too good. If he could bring out the acting skills he had when filming Bloody Battle Song: The Powerful Version, that would be perfect!”

“However, this small flaw won’t affect you much. I can give you 90 marks for this assignment. The remaining 10 marks is to give you room to improve.”

“Very good, we’ll decide on this publicity video for the smart fitness drying rack. Go back and continue preparing!”

Pei Qian smiled and handed his cell phone back.

Meng Chang was stunned on the spot. He forgot to reach out for his cell phone and even what he was here for.

Boss Pei... praised me?

Was he happy after watching this video?

You’re letting me leave just like that?

I’m going to spend Tengda’s money to advertise this on the internet after I leave!

That would be a huge sum of money for publicity!

The current scene was too different from the script that Meng Chang had expected. He could not accept it at the moment and even felt that something had gone wrong.

Pei Qian looked at the stunned Meng Chang and shook the cell phone in his hand. “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

Only then did Meng Chang react. He reached out to take the cell phone and said, still a little confused, “No, no problem. I’ll leave first, Boss Pei.”

Pei Qian nodded and continued with his work. Obviously, he did not take this matter to heart.

Meng Chang scratched his head. At that moment, he felt like he had gathered his strength to punch cotton. Not only did it not have any effect, but it also caused internal injuries to himself...

Meng Chang was still in a daze after coming out of Boss Pei’s office.

“Forget it, I think Boss Pei will not give up until death visits him. Let’s see if Boss Pei can still remain so calm once this advertisement is released and the publicity effect is terrible!”

Meng Chang left angrily.
