The open public room of employees has become a conference room, and everyone's sitting is also very casual.

Ma Qiao pulled up an office chair and sat straight beside Kang Jianfei, holding a meeting note book in his hand. Zhong Yuan, the fat man, sat on the desk opposite, Hu Juncai moved a small stool and sat down. Qi Bo sat by the window smoking, Zhong Zhiwen and Wu Chenggang were sitting together and whispering, Chen Xunqi was watering a pot of plants on the table, and Chen Bingkun leaned against the desk and yawned constantly.

The company has all arrived. Li Qian is pouring tea and water for everyone. In addition, a typist and errand-runner recruited by Maqiao is named Zhang Xu, who is sending everyone the employee contract that Maqiao has personally made.

After everyone signed the contract, Zhou Mingfang roughly reported the account. Excluding various expenses, the company's 5 million yuan was left with more than 4.783 million yuan (excluding the expenses of office rental, decoration, purchase of supplies, etc.).

Okay, then I will say a few words first, Kang Jianfeidao, today is our first employee meeting, and everyone who was not familiar with us before will get to know each other.Akun, you can introduce yourself first...

Chen Bingkun immediately stood up with a smile and said: Hello everyone, my name is Chen Bingkun, who specializes in assisting Fei Ge in film casting. In addition, he also works as a company star scout in the Artist Department.

Qi Bo said: My name is Qi Chunwang, and I am in charge of logistics in the production department.

Chen Xunqi said: My name is Chen Xunqi...

After everyone introduced themselves one by one, Kang Jianfei said: I open a film company, and I don’t say that I love movies and pursue art.However, since you are in this industry, you need to love and pursue art. But the more practical thing is to make money by making movies.The company makes money, and everyone gets a lot of money.The company is still small now, and everyone is full of talented people. If you feel that your talent cannot be fully displayed, you can only feel wronged first.Now the company still has more than 4.7 million yuan in its account. I am going to make a movie called "Mr. Zombie". Several people in the production department have read some scripts.The rough budget for this movie is at least 3.5 million, which means that the company doesn’t have much money left after filming the movie, so it’s impossible to lose...

Hu Juncai reminded: A Fei, the overseas box office of "Happy Ghost" has not yet been recorded.

Kang Jianfei was interrupted by him and said unhappy. He gave him a blank look and said: It will take at least more than a month for overseas box office to be recovered, and I will talk about it then.Now we are facing a situation where Mr. Zombie filming is difficult to find, and we cannot rent Shaw Brothers' Qingshui Bay set and Jiahe's Busan Road set.Everyone, the first thing we need to solve now is the filming location issue. Does anyone know where there are buildings and streets in the style of the early Republic of China?

Everyone was thinking silently, and Qi Bo suddenly said: Taipei's China Film Culture City should be suitable, and many major martial arts films in Hong Kong were filmed there.

Kang Jianfei asked: Is it easy to apply for a visa to Taiwan?

Qi Bo said: In order to encourage Hong Kong film companies to go to Taiwan to make movies, Taiwan has a special film and television visa, which can be obtained in a few days, which is faster than a study abroad visa.

Kang Jianfei thought for a while and said: OK, let’s go to Taipei to film.Ma Qiao is responsible for applying for a visa and booking air tickets. In addition, Qi Bo, cousin, Akun and Chen Xunqi, you can set off to Taipei in advance to get in touch with China Film Culture City, renting shooting equipment and calling out temporary actors.

Chen Bingkun hurriedly said: Brother Fei, I only know Hong Kong actors and are not familiar with Taiwan.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said: I believe in your ability. Will you know each other after you go?

As the few people were talking, Li Shan suddenly came over and walked to Kang Jianfei and whispered: Miss Pan Yingzi is here and said she is here to get the script.

Invite her in. After Kang Jianfei finished speaking, he said to everyone, "Okay, today's meeting will be here, everyone will go down and do their own things."

Others are fine, but Ma Qiao lamented in his heart: I miss him a top student who graduated from the Department of Financial Law of the University of Hong Kong and dropped out of Harvard Business School. He wanted to come back and show his strength, but he went into such a small company to be a commander of the barely-owned company. Even if he had to ask for visas and air tickets, he would ask for personal inquiries. It was really a tragedy!

Kang Jianfei returned to his general manager's office and walked in less than a minute.

Pan Yingzi is wearing a bat shirt on her upper body and a straight white trousers underneath. She is dressed up with a refreshing look and her baby face. She looks at most 20 years old. How can she look like a woman in her early 30s?

Hello, Miss Pan, please sit down!Kang Jianfei smiled and took out a copy of the script of "Mr. Zombie".

After Pan Yingzi sat down, she was looking at Kang Jianfei curiously.

Pan Yingzi became famous very early. Before Bruce Lee became famous, she was already ranked among the twelve golden hairpins of Shaw Brothers.

She has been traveling around Hong Kong and Taiwan for a long time to make films, and has a large number of fans in Hong Kong and Taiwan. Unfortunately, she is popular again and is always a bit far from the top actresses.

However, unlike Kang Jianfei’s memory, Pan Yingzi in his previous life only retired for several years because she had to marry someone. Pan Yingzi’s family in this world is not bad, but she chose to retire for only because she wanted to start a company.

It can be said that now is the lowest time for Pan Yingzi to have in her life.

The film company at home went bankrupt, and she lost her reputation after a few years of retiring from filming. She returned to film "Famous Sword and Romance" two months ago, and many young audiences didn't know her.

Two days ago, Chen Bingkun invited her to make a movie, but Pan Yingzi agreed without much thought.

In addition to lacking money, Kang Jianfei's title of tens of millions of directors is at work. Pan Yingzi wants to use Kang Jianfei's hands to increase his screen exposure again.

If Kang Jianfei had personally invited Pan Yingzi before the release of "Happy Ghost", he would probably not have been too lazy to see him.

Miss Pan, this is your script.Kang Jianfei suddenly remembered the filming in Taipei and asked, "Ms. Pan is familiar with Taipei Zhongchao Culture City?"

Pan Yingzi nodded and said: I am familiar with Ah. I was a producer a few years ago and often filmed films at China Film Culture City. I also know the general manager of the Culture City.

That's great. This movie "Mr. Zombie" was decided to be filmed in China Film Culture City, but people in our company are not familiar with the situation there. It would be great if Miss Pan could be an introduction by the middleman.

Kang Jianfei said.

When Pan Yingzi heard that she was just helping with her, she agreed readily: No problem, I'll just ask Manager Ma to come out for a meal, and he will arrange everything.

Kang Jianfei was in a good mood when he heard this, and he was afraid that there would be no way to film the scene in another place, otherwise he would waste a lot of time and energy on unnecessary things.

With Pan Yingzi as the general manager of the China Film Culture City, things will be much easier and the shooting will be smoother.

The original version of "Mr. Zombie" was initially budgeted by 4.5 million. Because of Lin Zhengying's pursuit of excellence, the cost eventually increased by nearly twice. Even Lin Zhengying himself did not receive a director's salary, and was nicknamed Taoist Master Sancai.

Now, Pan Yingzi is helping in the shooting and contact matters in Taipei, and Kang Jianfei himself has a complete storyboard script, so he doesn’t need to shoot many discarded films like Lin Zhengying.

Apart from the inflation over a few years, the original "Mr. Zombie" produced by Kang Jianfei will definitely not cost more than 4 million.

Kang Jianfei called Qi Bo, but he didn't expect that Qi Bo and Pan Yingzi actually met, which saved him the effort of introducing each other.

The three of them discussed for a while, and Kang Jianfei finally made a decision: Then let’s make up, I will hire Ms. Pan as a special consultant for "Mr. Zombies" to assist the crew in shooting in Taipei. In a few days, you will set off with Qi Bo and others to go to Taipei.

No problem, Mr. Kang, please rest assured.

Pan Yingzi smiled.

This kind of shooting coordination may be a bit tricky if it is other actors, but Pan Yingzi is very skillful. She has been working back and forth between Hong Kong and Taiwan in recent years as a film producer.

It's getting late, let's go have a meal together.Kang Jianfei looked at the watch and said that this watch was a Rolex for Pandison to shoot advertisements, and it was considered the only famous brand on Kang Jianfei.

Qi Bo said: I won’t go, there are other things to do in the afternoon.

Kang Jianfei smiled and said: Then I'll invite Miss Pan to express my gratitude.

Pan Yingzi smiled and said: Mr. Kang, you are the first director to ask me to film after I come back. It’s too late for me to flatter.
