Sheng Quan was truly a pleasant surprise.

She had invited Mr. Chen before. After all, Mr. Chen is an expert in robotics. As we all know, interstellar movies always feature robots.

But Chen Aihong flatly refused at that time, so she could only settle for the second best and invite her to the crew to provide guidance.

As a result, now she actually took the initiative to cooperate.

Sheng Quan had not seen Chen Aihong's name in the original text, but she could see her current achievements.

After receiving the project proposal, she successfully passed the third review and officially established a cooperative relationship with Professor Chen Aihong.

After this incident got out, the first people to express surprise were not the crew, but the scientific researchers who were familiar with Professor Chen.

Even Chen Aihong's teacher, Academician Zhang, called to ask: "Don't you always dislike cooperating with enterprises? Before, Leyuan, such a big company wanted to work with you, but you didn't want to go. Why are you willing to work with it now?"

Chen Aihong: "It's just... I feel comfortable. I like Mr. Sheng's attitude towards scientific researchers."

She looked back at the busy crew, the mechanical transport dogs moving around in the crew, and the small train track being built in the distance.

These things did not actually shock the scientific researchers. Robot dogs had been made a long time ago. These transport dogs did not have autonomous capabilities, and their obstacle avoidance abilities were not very sophisticated.

However, they were made by a group of students in their early twenties in a very short period of time.

Now, with the strong support of Sheng Quan, these students are still moving forward, and moving forward with them are more than 30 other student teams.

Thinking of the Ningzhou team she saw at the institute, Chen Aihong said, "Teacher, you may find this a bit unrealistic. Although this is just a movie, I think that maybe before it is released, it can really create one, no, several miracles."

Academician Zhang was startled for a few seconds. After a few seconds, the 90-year-old man did not think his student was fanciful, but responded with a smile:

"Then let's look forward to that day together."

*** While Chen Aihong and the others were looking forward to it, the special effects artists sent by Tianying felt that they had seen a miracle.

As we all know, movie special effects are a part of post-production.

But in fact, there is a job called following the special effects crew. As the name suggests, it means following the crew from the start to the end, collecting and recording various information and data, and also assisting the crew when shooting special effects shots.

It sounds very grand, but to put it simply it means little money but a lot of work.

To extend this, the money is not particularly small, but there are definitely a lot of things to do.

To put it nicely, the special effects team is a communication bridge between the special effects company and the crew. To put it bluntly, it is a sandwich.

Not only do you have to carry more than one piece of heavy equipment at work every day, but you also always encounter various emergencies. Special effects artists are not very popular in China, and you don’t have enough experience in special effects and group guidance. Sometimes the special effects company says one thing and the crew says another, and the pressure is often so great after a scene that you can explode in an instant.

However, the special effects team who had just joined Tianying were surprised to find that their work on "Star Wars" was going very smoothly.

The crew's attitude towards their special effects team is even more smooth than some blockbuster movies in Country A.

Gao Shi, the leader of the special effects team, has seen many big scenes, but after arriving at the "Star Wars" crew, he spent almost the first few days in a state of flattery as he was highly valued.

In fact, Gao Shi had only been working at Tianying for less than ten days.

He is an old classmate of Tan Hongguang and has been working abroad. The special effects environment there is better, but the elderly in his family are getting older, and his old classmate invited him with generous salary, so he finally gritted his teeth, quit his job and returned home.

In Tianying, there are many special effects artists like Gao Shi who developed abroad and were called back to China by Tan Hongguang or other people in the company.

They all have families. If there is no other way, who would be willing to leave their hometown and live in a foreign country? Having a good and stable job in the country is enough for them to pack their bags and return home.

Gao Shi was the most experienced special effects person in Tianying, so he was promoted to team leader just three days after joining the company.

It doesn’t matter whether you are a team leader or not. The key point is that the team leader has a high salary.

Gao Shi had just started working and got such a small surprise. His worried heart instantly calmed down. The most important thing was that Tianying was expanding rapidly.

Ever since the previous [Top Ten Fairy Palace Special Effects Videos] became popular, Tianying's name has come into the public eye. The detailed and shocking special effects not only made them famous, but also attracted outstanding domestic special effects artists to join.

From the first day Gao Shi arrived at Tianying, he realized the huge ambition behind this new company.

You know, in China, a special effects team of dozens of people can be considered to have begun to take shape.

Those big special effects companies only have two to three hundred people at most.

As a newly established company, Tianying has already had an astonishing number of 600 people, and is still expanding.

On the one hand, they continued to release special effects videos related to Star Entertainment on public platforms to attract fans. On the other hand, they rejected all new clients seeking cooperation after the official filming of "War of the Worlds". All employees of the company were dedicated to serving only this one crew.

This not only means that "Star Wars" will be the biggest advertisement for Tianying.

Gao Shi has never met Chairman Sheng Quan, but it is obvious that a boss who can allow Xingmang Entertainment to continue to grow would definitely not be the kind of person who "decides to set up a large special effects company on a whim."

It is very expensive to support a special effects company, not to mention an employee of more than 500 people. There are also a large number of expensive equipment in the crew, which are definitely not just prepared for a movie like "Star Wars".

Xingmang Entertainment...has big ambitions!

After Gao Shi realized this, he became more passionate when working.

If Xingmang Entertainment established its subsidiary Tianying specifically in order to produce more blockbuster movies, then it also means that Xingmang will not fall and Tianying will exist forever.

On the small side, he has the potential for promotion and salary increase in the future, and may be able to work at Tianying until retirement.

In a broader sense, if Mr. Sheng really has this plan, then the Tianying company he works for... might become famous all over the world in the future.

Precisely because he has worked abroad, Gao Shi is more clearly aware of the contempt of Chinese special effects by movie fans around the world.

But in fact, China's special effects artists are not weak.

Some international blockbusters with explosive special effects have the presence of Chinese special effects artists, and some foreign films also outsource their special effects to Chinese special effects companies.

Gao Shi just hoped that his guess was correct, and that Mr. Sheng, who was behind Xingmang Entertainment and Tianying, was really playing a big game.

If that's the case...it's beautiful to think about.

We don't seek to compete with those top special effects companies, as long as China Special Effects Company can have a place in the international arena.

**** “Not enough.”

Sheng Quan looked through the equipment list and said, "Send someone to purchase some fixed cameras, as well as motion capture equipment. The equipment must also be the most advanced."

The reason why this report appeared in her hands was naturally because the amount involved was too huge.

A large number of filming equipment and on-site special effects related equipment were purchased before the filming of the movie started, and there was also a large amount of scientific research investment. Now that the filming has just officially started, a large amount of money will be spent again.

"The Cultivator" has just created huge profits, but before they can even warm up to the present, they are going to throw them away in large quantities. If it were someone else, they would have to give some advice.

But who made Gu Zhao the executor?

In the entire company, he is more radical than anyone else, but he is usually able to handle all kinds of affairs rationally, so it is not obvious.

Not only did he say he would do it immediately, he also mentioned another important company matter: "The 32nd floor also needs to be vacated."

Recently, Xingmang Entertainment has undergone a major expansion in its business. The artists that were signed previously have all obtained suitable roles under the company's arrangement. Now happens to be the boom period for these artists to participate in the broadcast of their works.

Just like Yan Hui and Huaqing Jiang Zhen, once their film or television works are broadcast, along with fans and fame, there are also invitations from various crews and brands.

Since the beginning of this year, Jiang Zhen has traveled to various countries more than eight times. Yan Hui and Hua Qing are similar, but their fan base is basically in China, so they all fly back and forth within the country to travel.

Although they are busy, they are all very ambitious and are tired but happy.

There is no such thing as exploiting artists in Xingmang. This is a death order from the top leader Sheng Quan.

In addition, as long as the contracted artists have the ability, the company can promote them. Even if it is difficult for newcomers to join the crew, they can be arranged into the film and television works invested by Xingmang.

Even without talking about the actors, look at Jinjiu, An Baixing, Yu Hongdou and the others. As the first batch of singers signed by Xingmang, it has only been a short time, but they have already become quite famous.

Jinjiu has released many new songs. After the broadcast of "The Cultivator", the theme song he sang became popular all over the country. Although he did not hold many concerts, they were almost always sold out.

There was even a program team that invited him to be a mentor. Although he refused, in less than a year, he went from an unknown contestant to being invited to be a mentor. Even inspirational movies would not shoot it this way.

The fact that the company is dedicated to its artists is already attractive, and it can also make them famous. For a time, Xingmang Entertainment, which was established only one year ago, almost became a holy place in the minds of many artists.

Not to mention the newcomers who are in the process of choosing a company, even some artists who have signed contracts and see no hope in their original companies would rather pay the penalty themselves and switch to Star Mang.

In addition to needing an extra floor for office use, new people also need to be recruited.

After looking at the company's current situation, Sheng Quan recalled the time when she had just established the company. At that time, she had thought that one day in the future, the entire Huaxing Building would be Xingmang Entertainment.

Unexpectedly, the starlight expanded to twice its original size so quickly.

Although he was very happy, Sheng Quan's idea was the same as Gu Zhao's: "After the expansion, we will temporarily slow down the pace of signing new people to stabilize this wave first."

Although rapid expansion is exciting, for entertainment companies that need works and whose funds are often tied up by large-scale projects, they still need to take some time to relax.

Xingmang has been very busy recently. There is no way around it. In most industries, high returns are accompanied by high-intensity work. The popularity of "Cultivator" has brought Xingmang not only a lot of money, but also a lot of workload.

At least as Sheng Quan walked along, he saw that the employees were all in a hurry, and the executives all had dark circles under their eyes, and their hairlines seemed to have receded a little.

Even the King of Curls Gu Zhao looked like he couldn't hold on any longer, but fortunately, his hair volume was not affected.

Ms. Sheng, who relaxes every day, either strolling here or there, and occasionally getting a massage, spa or hot spring bath, feels that she should do something.

She looked at Gu Zhao, whose brows rarely revealed a hint of fatigue:

"The company is almost a year old. I want to select some outstanding talents from the management and employees to go on vacation. This can be considered as an employee benefit. You don't have many days off this year. Why not take this opportunity to go on vacation?"

Gu Zhao was startled: "Vacation?"

He has never taken a vacation. He needs to keep learning before he reaches adulthood, let alone after he starts working .

Without even a second of thought, Mr. Gu flatly refused: "I don't need a vacation."

The words "balance between work and relaxation" have never appeared in Gu Zhao's dictionary. Rather than going on vacation, he prefers to sit in his office and work.

Of course he knew that Sheng Quan was doing this for his own good. This King of Rolls, who always said one word to others, was very different to his boss. At least he was willing to explain:

“It takes too much time.”

Seeing that Sheng Quan was still looking at him, Gu Zhao naturally knew that she was worried about his health.

He wanted to say that he was completely fine, but he thought that Director Sheng might really take him for a physical examination, and he did feel tired recently...

Mr. Gu was tired but didn't want to stop working. He knew he was in the wrong, so he settled for the next best thing and gave a perfect excuse:

"When the airport eliminates the waiting time, I will go on vacation."

Although he himself did not plan to go, he still supported Sheng Quan in selecting outstanding employees to take vacation. He felt that this would make employees feel more belonging to the company and they would work harder for the company after returning from vacation.

For new employees, such benefits can also motivate them to make progress.

He also suggested: "We can let them go to Xingmang Manor. It will be helpful for future development if the employees recognize the strength of the company."

"Recently, because Starmang has been focusing on Star Wars, the public opinion and partner companies are worried that our funds may be in trouble, and some employees have been affected."

Sheng Quan was not surprised. The main reason was that the filming of "War of the Worlds" did cost a lot of money, and the company's expansion also required money. The seemingly bustling scene would inevitably make people worry that Xingmang was only concerned about the future and not the present.

She thought of something and laughed: "Don't worry about this, I have a way."

"But employees can indeed book their vacation at the manor. It's a great place for vacation."

This matter is settled.

Xingmang began to open up recruitment, recruiting a large number of new people while conducting internal selection.

Gu Zhao has always been good at maximizing benefits, so he directly held an anniversary celebration.

Of course, this is after recruiting new people on a large scale.

There are also recent graduates among this group of newcomers, and Yu Miao is one of them.

Yes, it was the girl who watched "The Cultivator" three times and bought tickets to visit the Ten Great Immortal Palaces. After discovering that Xingmang Entertainment was recruiting, she submitted her resume as soon as possible.

It’s not for the convenience of seeing celebrities. Although Yu Miao posts every day on the Internet about [awsl rush up to me and I’ll call you wife, wife], in real life, when she sees her favorite celebrity, she doesn’t even dare to ask for a photo, and can only secretly feel excited in her heart.

The main thing is that Xingmang Entertainment is famous for its good treatment! An online friend she met works at Xingmang and often told her how great it is here, how great the environment is, and how healthy the competition is.

The most important thing is that the salary is high.

Obviously, there are many people who think like Yu Miao. She even saw many people waiting during the interview. At that time, she was so worried that she would not pass.

Fortunately, she passed, and as soon as she started working, she was able to attend the company's anniversary event.

Key point: This activity is held on weekdays.

The company would even rather divide the employees into two groups to celebrate the anniversary than sacrifice the employees' rest time.

Even though it was Yu Miao's first time at work, he knew what a thoughtful gesture this was.

And I heard that this anniversary celebration is not only held in a big hotel, but also includes a selection of outstanding employees and a lucky draw. Although new employees cannot participate in the selection, they can participate in the lucky draw!

Moreover, Yu Miao had never been to such a big and expensive hotel.

She has tasted the sweetness of benefits before feeling the bitterness of work - this is her current state.

She was a person with a strong desire to express herself, and for a moment she wanted to tell the whole world what a great company she had joined.

On this day, after getting off the subway, she was walking towards the Huaxing Building in front. When her friend in real life learned that she was about to arrive at the company, she called her on video at the right time.

"Let me see, let me see what the interior of Huaxing Building looks like. The pictures uploaded online are all of the exterior, and there are very few pictures of the interior."

The friend is not in Shanghai, but is planning to find a job here. After listening to Yu Miao bragging so much, she also wants to find a job in a company in Huaxing Building, so that the two of them can be close to each other and can do things together.

Yu Miao raised his phone and said, "I'm not there yet. I still have a short distance to go, but I can show you the outside first. Look, it's very impressive, isn't it?"

My friend's eyes suddenly widened: "Eh? What's that flying in the sky? A plane? Flying so low?"

"Oh my god!!! It's going to stop!! Stop on the rooftop?? Wait wait, stop shaking, I'm going to record the screen!"

On the rooftop of Huaxing Building, Sheng Quan got off the helicopter and stretched himself:

“It’s really comfortable.”

She took out her cell phone and called Secretary Zhang directly: "Go and tell Mr. Gu to come up for vacation. He can't go to far places, but nearby is still okay."

Secretary Zhang, who was in the president's office, looked silently at his boss.

Gu Zhao stood up and put his hand on the pile of documents on the table.

Sheng Quan's voice came again: "Oh, by the way, is Mr. Gu listening? Don't let him take his work with him, or I'll take him for a physical examination."

Gu Zhao: “…”

The cold-faced president had just placed his hand on the document, but then reluctantly and silently took it back.

While Gu Zhao was enjoying the novelty of his first vacation in his life, a video quickly went viral on the Internet.

#Huaxing Building Helicopter# #Private helicopter landing in the building# There are also people living on high floors far away who took pictures of Xingmang Entertainment Chairman Sheng Quan getting off the helicopter.

In the strong wind, Sheng Quan stood next to the helicopter, surrounded by six long-legged bodyguards who tightly protected him. The scene was comparable to the amazing picture taken at the gate of Xingmang Manor.

This picture has almost 100% confirmed that this extremely expensive private helicopter belongs to Sheng Quan.

As soon as the helicopter appeared, all financial-related public opinion disappeared almost immediately.

After some investigation, everyone found that it was indeed true. This "car", which is extremely expensive even among helicopters, was originally custom-made by a foreign tycoon at a huge cost. As a result, the tycoon ran into financial problems, and Sheng Quan snatched it away.

Then after intercepting the deal, what she did was take a helicopter to her own company.

People who have commented that Star Mang’s funds will definitely have problems: “…”

It's outrageous.

You rich people all go to work by helicopter! (End of this chapter)
