Chapter 288 New Year, 2017
Meng Bai paused, looked over with the help of the not-so-bright hanging lamp, and then cursed in his heart.
I thought it was something else, but it's a person.
Looking at the face again, a familiar little face came into view.
It was Yang Chaoyue.
Because it was cold outside, she wore a heavy coat and squatted on the ground with her hands supporting her head.
In addition, there was some backlight in that place, and it looked like a dark shadow at first glance.
"No, girl, who are you squatting to ambush?"
Meng Bai walked over and looked at the face that was a little red in the cold wind: "You don't mind the cold."
Yang Chaoyue had already stood up, and said a little embarrassedly: "Sorry, boss, I'm just thinking about something here."
"Thinking..."
Meng Bai curled his lips: "Thinking about the 100,000 yuan bonus?"
"Yes."
Sure enough, it's hard to say whether knowledge can make people grow, but money can definitely make people grow.
Who would have thought that usually it's either "I want revenge after rebirth" or "I am born a waste and worship the immortal sect", now he actually started to "think".
But thinking about it again, he could understand. He remembered that the girl's family conditions didn't seem to be very good. One hundred thousand yuan was a considerable sum of money for her.
Then again, even if it was himself three or four years ago, one hundred thousand yuan would still be a large sum of money.
Seeing Yang Chaoyue's somewhat dazed expression, Meng Bai thought for a moment and said, "If you are not in a hurry to rest, you can take a walk with me for a while."
"Oh, okay. "
Yang Chaoyue responded subconsciously, but then immediately thought of something else.
"Boss..." She asked weakly, "This shouldn't be counted as part of the reward, right?"
"..."
Meng Bai looked at her with a "black question mark.jpg" look on his face.
Yang Chaoyue smiled awkwardly and explained what he had heard before.
"Go back and tell her that it won't cost 100,000 to have dinner with me, just pay the bill."
Walking slowly around the outdoor fenced corridor, Yang Chaoyue glanced at Meng Bai, and finally plucked up the courage to ask: "Boss, if it were you, how would you use this bonus?"
"Me?"
Meng Bai thought for a while: "If it were me, I might ask for an opportunity to submit a script, or a training session, or I might choose an investment quota for an Arclight project or something."
Yang Chaoyue seemed to be thinking.
"But these are all my choices based on my own situation, and may not be suitable for you."
Meng Bai said: "In fact, if you really need it, taking the money directly is also a good option. In the end, it all depends on where you need this opportunity."
"..."
Before she won the prize, Yang Chaoyue thought a lot about how to use the money.
But now, she suddenly found that she seemed uncertain again.
After walking in silence for a long time, until Meng Bai stopped, she finally said: "Boss, please help me remember this reward first, and I will tell you when I think about it."
"Okay, don't worry, think about it slowly." Meng Bai said: "Okay, I'm in the room, thank you for sending me back, go back and rest early."
"Ah?"
Yang Chaoyue looked at the door next to her blankly. She thought her boss was just walking around.
"Sorry to bother you, boss, then I'll go back."
She hurriedly bowed her head and said, then turned around and ran away.
Looking at the little girl who left like a little penguin, Meng Bai breathed a sigh of relief as he walked in.
He helped another employee solve the confusion in life. He is really a good boss!
——Before
the Spring Festival, Arc Light Film and Television released the planned film list for 2017 on its official website and official microblog.
"Fuck! It's been two years. Is the movie project of Soul Ferry finally going to be released?"
"Is the web drama of Chinatown Detective released so soon? Why hasn't Forensic Qin Ming 2 been released yet?"
"Haha, I knew that Meng Bai must have read the comments. Arc Light is actually going to shoot a spy drama!"
"A spy drama of the type of 'Escape Room'. This wave is directly linked with 'Detective Ming'!"
"Teacher Pan plays four roles? I'm already interested in this new drama 'Day and Night Chase'."
"The above, look at the logo on the promotional poster. This drama is also a project of 'Green Ivy Detective Universe'. Just watch it."
"No, why is 'Captain Tai' also in the new drama. Teacher, where is our Fang Mu?"
"Psychological Crime is also going to be made into a movie. Is this the end of the whole storyline? Why do I have a bad feeling?"
"..."
The New Year's film single was released and immediately caused various discussions.
The biggest debates are basically concentrated on the three projects of Psychological Crime 2, Day and Night Chase and Psychological Crime: City of Light.
After all, this is the first time that the "Green Ivy Detective Universe" has been linked to the main storyline.
The happiest people are the bloggers and up-masters in various film and television areas.
Originally, I had done all the "good drama inventory", "bad movie inventory" and "niche drama inventory" during this period, and I was worried about the next topic.
Well, there is no need to worry about it now, just do "the most anticipated drama in 2017".
This is really the New Year.
Another beneficiary is naturally Arclight.
Looking at the news of various self-media and marketing accounts on the Internet, as well as the increase in the popularity of related projects, Meng Bai couldn't help but say in his heart that Liu Jun's proposal of "film list preview" is indeed good.
Of course, this is also because Arclight has laid the foundation for several years and more than a dozen high-quality dramas, accumulating a strong appeal for the entire team and a lot of fans and audiences.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the Spring Festival of 2017 finally arrived.
As Arclight Film and Television gradually got on the right track, the boss Meng Bai had more free time.
At least, he could go home to have a New Year's Eve dinner with his elders during the New Year.
"This Spring Festival Gala is getting more and more boring."
Walking back from the old man's house, Father Meng sighed: "The key is that those people on the scene are still having a lot of fun, and I don't know what they are having fun for."
"They are all invited contributors, advertisers or family members of actors, so they have to show their support." Meng Bai said: "And the atmosphere on the scene is indeed better than watching it through the TV."
At this point, he had an idea: "If you two are interested, I will help you get a few tickets for the Spring Festival Gala next year, so you can go there to experience it, and you can also spend the New Year with me."
"You can still get a spot for the Spring Festival Gala?" Father Meng and Mother Meng asked in surprise.
"Tsk, don't you look at your son's current status." Meng Bai waved his hand with a calm look, "If you want to go on stage, then I really can't help it. But if you are an audience, it's very simple."
"This..."
Father Meng and Mother Meng looked at each other and were a little moved.
They were not interested in watching the Spring Festival Gala on the spot, but they were quite concerned about going to Jingbei to see the situation of their own children.
"If it's not too much trouble for you, we can go there." Father Meng pretended to be casual.
Meng Bai naturally heard the hidden tone in the two people's words, smiled lightly, and drove the car: "Okay, then let's make it like this, come to my place next Spring Festival, just in time to see my newly bought house."
"Wait a minute." Mother Meng frowned and looked at him, "When did you buy the house?"
"Ah, didn't I say..."
Meng Bai thought about it, it seems that he really didn't say it.
"It's okay, you know it now."
"...It seems that we really have to go and take a good look."
Thanks to the big brother "Gu Yegen" for the reward!
