The company cannot afford too much trial-and-error cost.
Although Qin Shuang's method was a bit old-fashioned, it was indeed effective and could generate revenue. As long as the company could continue operating and they survived until then to collect their pension, that would be fine.
This is a done deal; as long as the head office agrees and is willing to allocate funds, they will proceed.
Who knows, maybe they'll release one that's even more popular than the previous one.
Of course, Zhang Wenbing and his colleagues couldn't say these things. Sometimes it's necessary to be conservative and not make promises too easily, lest they become a laughing stock if things don't go as planned, especially for those in high positions.
After the two elderly people nodded, Qin Shuang turned her gaze to Li Dongyang.
She remained silent, waiting for Li Songbai and Zhang Wenbing's reply.
Li Songbai looked at Zhang Wenbing and then at Qin Shuang, organized his thoughts, and said, "I think this idea is excellent. Lao Zhang and I had considered this issue before, but we didn't submit it for approval because of funding concerns."
"Funding is not a problem."
"Just go ahead and do it."
I heard that Qin Shuang is the most favored daughter of the Qin family. Since she has spoken up, the funding shouldn't be a problem. As long as the funding is secured, what are they afraid of?
Go for it!
Of course, the two of them were rather subtle in their words.
"But there's only one group right now, and we're worried that we might not be able to keep up with the progress."
“If the crew is short-handed, we can hire more people, but there can only be one person in charge.”
"From now on, you'll be in charge of directing the show. If anything goes wrong, I'll hold you responsible."
"Is there a problem on your end?"
Qu Hengsheng nodded. "There shouldn't be any problem."
Qin Shuang: "Report any problems promptly."
Qin Shuang's gaze then fell on Li Dong's head.
The company has at least ten screenwriters, from the most senior to the least junior.
The script written by this newcomer was the only one that became a huge hit.
It's possible that Li Dongyang's youth and understanding of what young people want today enabled him to create a viral hit.
She watched a few episodes of the short drama "It's Not That I Can't Live Without You," which had a clear theme and a broad target audience, combining humor with a touch of philosophy.
It can be said that Li Dongyang has grasped the ideas of young people very well.
"Shouldn't it be fine to organize my thoughts this week?"
Li Dongyang writes very quickly; he can produce 20 episodes a week if he has inspiration, which is a piece of cake for him.
But he always kept in mind what Zhang Wenbing said: don't speak too confidently, or you'll have a hard time backing down later.
"I will try my best to organize my thoughts during this week's holiday."
"good."
"Anyway, as soon as possible."
Do you have any ideas?
Zhang Wenbing nodded. "I think this is a good idea. With a hit show leading the way, many viewers will be eager for more. We can use this short drama as a promotional gimmick and it should become popular. Plus, short dramas have low trial and error costs. We can shoot a few episodes and see how it goes. If it works well, we can continue; if it doesn't, we can change it."
That's just how this industry is now; things change quickly, and if a movie becomes popular, even if you shoot something similar, you'll still make some money off the traffic.
Qin Shuang turned her gaze to Qu Hengsheng.
"I think Dongyang can do it."
"He has already filmed two short dramas, and his talent is evident to all. If all goes as expected, this short drama should also be a hit when it is released."
Li Dongyang turned his head to look at Qu Hengsheng and could only say that he was really a brother, praising him in front of so many people without blushing.
Li Dongyang is humble and low-key. There are some things he can't say himself. Qu Hengsheng is a sensible person. He earned hundreds of thousands of yuan in commission from one of Li Dongyang's dramas. What's wrong with praising him in front of the leaders?
This guy is low-key, but his strength doesn't allow him to be low-key.
If this short drama invested in by Shangcheng becomes a hit, Qin Shuang plans to stop Li Dongyang from collaborating with outside companies and instead focus on developing a unique short drama brand.
An hour later, Qin Shuang's proposal was unanimously approved.
Everyone is very supportive of Qin Shuang.
After everyone else left, Qin Shuang kept Li Dongyang behind.
He thought Qin Shuang wanted to talk to him about work, so he couldn't help but ask, "President Qin, what do you want to see me about?"
Qin Shuang shook her head. "No, you don't need to be nervous. I'm keeping you here because of some personal issues."
Li Dongyang was stunned. A personal matter?
Are you suggesting I rent him to be my boyfriend for the New Year?
This kind of thing is mentioned a lot in books.
"I heard you're a high-ranking player in League of Legends, and I'd like you to help me rank up."
Li Dongyang looked at Qin Shuang in astonishment. This was his personal privacy. How did she know?
"Why not?"
"Of course, if you're not available, then forget it."
Li Dongyang shook his head. "No, I don't play games much at night, just occasionally."
"It's okay, I'll give you the account. You can log in for me when you have time. There's no rush."
"What's your WeChat ID? I'll add you and send you my account details later."
"Okay, everything else is fine."
"Mr. Qin, I'm going out to take care of some business."
Li Dongyang nodded, then got up and went out.
After Li Dongyang closed the door, Qin Shuang picked up her phone from the table and opened a profile picture of a cute girl.
"Send me your account number, and I'll find you a pro to help you rank up."
Soon the other party sent the account and information.
"Thank you, Auntie. You're the best."
"If you get a good grade this time, you should study hard."
"I understand, Auntie. I will definitely study hard."
After Li Dongyang came out of the office, he saw Qu Hengsheng leaning against the wall at the corner of the corridor, seemingly waiting for him.
"Xingyu is in trouble."
"The tax bureau has already come knocking on our door."
"I estimate they'll be severely punished this time, and the company leaders might even go to jail."
It's quite amusing; Li Dongyang probably'd almost forgotten about it by now.
"Luckily, your friend didn't cooperate with them back then, otherwise he might have gone to jail."
Although Li Jing later discovered the problem and canceled the cooperation with the other party, he was still very grateful to Qu Hengsheng for keeping this matter in mind.
"Nothing else, just wanted to let you know."
"By the way, did President Qin give you any trouble by keeping you behind alone earlier?"
Li Dongyang smiled and said, "No, she just asked me to help her solve some technical problems."
Qu Hengsheng nodded. "Alright, I'll head down now."
"Okay, by the way, how about we go out for a drink tonight to relax?"
"Have you made arrangements for your sister-in-law?"
"She went back to her parents' home these past few days and isn't home."
"Oh, so you have time to build things now?"
"Relax,"
Li Dongyang waved his hand, "I probably can't go. You heard it just now, President Qin asked me to put together an outline this week, and I have to write the script at home tonight."
Secondly, he also needs to help his boss log into his account; these two tasks alone will keep him busy for a while.
Qu Hengsheng patted Li Dongyang on the shoulder, "Alright, you go ahead and get busy. We'll get together again when you have time."
After saying this, Qu Hengsheng turned and went to his office.
