Chapter 332 - Finalization of the Script for Tomorrow is Beautiful (1/2)

November 17th…

Pei Qian received a call from Huang Sibo, telling him that Fei Huang Workspace wanted to confirm the script and other matters related to filming. Two weeks had passed since Pei Qian finished writing the script.

During these two weeks, Zhu Xiaoce and the scriptwriters at Fei Huang Workspace had been working non-stop on Boss Pei’s script. At the same time, they prepared for filming to commence.

Now that the script was finally done, they needed Pei Qian – the main sponsor of the movie—to give the final nod of approval. This was a matter of attitude.

Of course, if Pei Qian found out that Zhu Xiaoce had made too many changes to the script and reduced its toxic effect, he would have to say a word or two.

Boss Pei was becoming increasingly laid-back when it came to thinking of ideas and making decisions. This was because he realized that no matter how many decisions he made, people could still be counted on to backstab him!

When they worked on Ocean Stronghold, Pei Qian only gave the team a general direction and allowed his employees to fill in the details. After that, the game became popular.

When they worked on Game Designer, Pei Qian made sure to specify every single detail and turned Lu Mingliang into nothing more than a tool. After that, the game still became popular.

When he asked Ma Yang to make investments, Pei Qian set no requirements for what kind of investments to make. He did not even attempt to limit Old Ma’s creativity, and yet…

Ultimately, Boss Pei was miserable.

Pei Qian realized that no matter how much he oversaw projects or got involved in the nitty-gritty, the outcome never seemed to change.

Since that was the case, he saw no point in working so hard.

It was too tiring for Boss Pei to come up with every single detail for every project, just like he did for Game Designer.

Thus, Pei Qian decided to casually check on Fei Huang Workspace’s progress. He would walk around and try his best to give some ‘opinions’. After symbolically showing some resistance, he would be done for the day.

As the saying went, man proposed and God disposed. There was no point in forcing things.

When Pei Qian arrived at Fei Huang Workspace’s office, Huang Sibo and Zhu Xiaoce greeted him and led him into the guest room.

The company had been developing for a long time. Now, the staff composition of Fei Huang Workspace was more or less complete. With the directors, scriptwriters, stage crew, editors, special effects crew, and the like; the entire office looked much livelier. Everyone was working in full swing as they prepared to film the new project.

Pei Qian arrived at the guest room, sipped his tea, and immediately gave instructions to Huang Sibo.

“Fei Huang Workspace is performing exceptionally well now, but don’t ever forget Tengda’s spirit. It’s good to see everyone so passionate and hardworking, but do not let them start working overtime, understand?”

Huang Sibo nodded immediately. “Don’t worry, Boss Pei. Fei Huang Workspace sets Tengda as its benchmark for rules, regulations, welfare, and benefits. How could we allow such a disgraceful thing to happen?”

Pei Qian nodded, obviously satisfied with Huang Sibo’s attitude.

Zhu Xiaoce handed a thick script over to Boss Pei. “Boss Pei, this is the final script. Please take a look. If you don’t like anything in the script, please point it out. We will revise it immediately.”

Pei Qian took the thick script and glanced at the movie’s title.

Before this, Pei Qian had only written a brief story outline. He had not named the movie.

Yet, not only had Zhu Xiaoce and Fei Huang Workspace’s editors added more details to complete the narrative, but they had also come up with a name for the movie.

‘Tomorrow is Beautiful’

There was both a Mandarin and an English Title.

Just looking at this script made Pei Qian want to hold up his thumb.

Good! Well done!

This script contained every toxic point in history. Anyone who watched the movie would immediately feel depressed.

Yet, the title of the movie showed no signs of its toxicity. Instead, it sounded extremely confusing

‘Tomorrow is Beautiful’ sounded like the title of a warm and comforting art piece. It would definitely fool an audience, who would not have guessed any better, into watching the movie. Perhaps even couples in their honeymoon stage of dating would want to watch it.

Wouldn’t that almost guarantee criticism of the movie? Its reputation would be in shambles!

Pei Qian nodded subtly and read further.

Zhu Xiaoce, who was sitting across from Boss Pei, could not help but jump upon seeing the latter’s subtle nod.

My script has been validated by Boss Pei! My understanding of his script was absolutely right!

Obviously, Boss Pei understood how deep the movie title was. Indeed, a telepathic connection existed between talents!

Pei Qian did not know how excited Zhu Xiaoce was at that moment. He continued flipping through the script casually, picking out some parts to study more closely. The simple story outline from before had been expanded into a detailed script, including explanations on the set-up, the lines, the actions, and the like. Pei Qian could almost see the movie playing inside his head.

He only had one feeling: this was extremely toxic!

The story outline had been toxic before, but it had only been an outline after all. The plot was extremely basic. However, the current script contained the conversations between the protagonists, their expressions, and a lot of other details. One only had to imagine the background music, and the toxicity levels would be…

Through the roof.

Pei Qian could not stand to read any further. It was too miserable!

He continued scanning the script and confirmed that Zhu Xiaoce and the other scriptwriters had not changed the storyline. They had only added more details to the outline and expanded the script.

It was not any less toxic. Instead, the additional details made it look even more toxic!

At that point, Pei Qian began to relax. If they stuck to this, the movie would definitely contain every toxic point in history! “This script is perfect! I’m very happy with it.”
