Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Chapter 385: What to draw

Views:

After hanging up, Pei Qian found out Ruan Guangjian's phone number.

But before calling, Pei Qian searched thousands of degrees for the keyword "shared phone booth" on a whim.

Soon there were a lot of search results, a large part of which came from the posts, forums and Weibo of local people in Jingzhou.

"Today, a genius came up with an excellent entrepreneurial idea, sharing a phone booth! After scanning the code, you can go in and make a call!"

"Crazy, you have a mobile phone to scan the code, isn't it bad to use a mobile phone to make a call?"

"I died laughing. I even took a group photo. It felt like a performance art. [Photo]"

"This broken phone booth is quite big, but how does it feel like it was made by hand? Is it really a product of industrial production? The details are a bit unrefined."

"This is... pay to go to jail, and let people watch through the glass?"

Pei Qian glanced at it and felt more at ease.

Look, the eyes of the masses are sharp!

Since this phone booth is so unpopular and unprofitable, let Ruan Guangjian draw a few more and turn the phone booth into a cultural symbol of pure public welfare.

Mmmm, yummy!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian called Ruan Guangjian.

Monday, January 10.

Ruan Guangjian temporarily settled his work at Shangyang Games, and gave the art team and outsourced art team of Shangyang Games his suggestions for revisions. Then he went to the nearby art supplies market to buy the necessary materials such as brushes and paints. Go to Universal Street.

Because it is Monday, there will be less traffic in the mall.

But even so, there are still many people taking pictures next to the shared phone booth.

Probably after the news of the sand sculpture of the "shared phone booth" spread out yesterday, many people came here.

As soon as Ruan Guangjian came up from the escalator, he saw a muscular man with a strong build and long hair greeted him.

"Master! Hello, hello!"

"Master is so young, there is a big gap with what he imagined."

Zhang Juan had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Ruan Guangjian carrying various painting tools, he immediately determined that this was the artist invited by Mr. Pei.

But from the appearance, Ruan Guangjian did not have long hair and beards like those artists imagined by Zhang Li, nor did he have earrings, earrings, tattoos and other decorations. He looked clean and neat, no different from an ordinary student. .

On the contrary, Zhang Li's long hair flutters, but it is more in line with the image of an artist that most people think.

Ruan Guangjian looked at the shared phone booth, and it looked no different from the photos, but he saw it with his own eyes, and it felt bigger in the senses.

After Ruan Guangjian finished looking up and down the phone booth, Zhang Wang asked expectantly, "Master, how long does it take to paint such a painting?"

Ruan Guangjian thought for a while: "This cannot be generalized."

"Painting is a creative work, and the time varies greatly. If it is a simple oil painting, the object to be painted has been conceived in advance, and the artist's technique is relatively skilled, it may be completed in ten hours."

"However, if a master paints a high-level oil painting, it may not be capped for one, three, or five years."

"This includes the time for material acquisition, creation, modification, etc., and there is no upper limit."

Zhang Li hurriedly said: "Three years or five years? It's definitely not necessary, just paint it casually. Master, the painting is so good, I'm worried that someone will steal it."

"After all, this phone booth is disassembled."

"But there are security guards in the big shopping mall to help watch, this possibility is very small, haha."

Zhang Juan told a bad joke, but Ruan Guangjian didn't get his joke very well.

But at least one thing is clear, that is, this painting definitely doesn't need to be painted so finely, and it doesn't need to be treated as a top-notch work of art.

However, it must not be too improvised. After all, President Pei has a lot of money, and he is a confidant and friend. How can he cheat President Pei.

Ruan Guangjian thought for a while: "I heard that this is just the first one. There will be 20 phone booths in total?"

Zhang Li nodded: "Yes, those are still in production."

Ruan Guangjian looked at the size of the painting area of the phone booth and asked, "What subject to paint, do you have any ideas?"

Zhang Huan shook his head violently, highlighting a lack of opinion: "No! It all depends on what master you want to paint!"

Ruan Guangjian thought about it carefully: "Well... I need to paint twenty pictures, and the workload of each picture is not small."

"After all, this painting is nearly two meters high, and the workload is at least three to four times that of an ordinary oil painting."

"Even if I can paint in my own style, I don't have to pay attention to details. It will take three or four days to complete this painting."

"And it's on the premise that I'm very familiar and skilled with what I want to paint."

"What's more, this phone booth is a project invested by President Pei, and the subject matter of the painting must have something to do with President Pei's company, right?"

"If you think about it in this way, there don't seem to be many themes that fit..."

"Have it!"

Ruan Guangjian suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of a good idea.

The hero original painting that can draw gog!

As it happens, there are more than 20 heroes in the first batch of gog, and their original paintings have been completed.

The shapes and designs of these original paintings were all completed by Ruan Guangjian. After repeated revisions and repainting, they were all familiar.

Moreover, these original paintings belong to Tengda's new games. This phone booth is also an industry invested by President Pei, and there is a very close connection between the two.

Compared with traditional oil paintings, the original hero paintings are more friendly and interested in young people who come to shopping malls for consumption.

The more Ruan Guangjian thought about it, the more suitable he felt.

The only thing that needs to be changed is the specific expression of the original painting.

The original gog's original painting is very detailed and figurative, because the modeler needs to create the game model according to the original painting. If some parts are blurred, the modeler can only fill in the details.

However, the paintings here can be regarded as concept maps and promotional images, which can be more artistic.

Ruan Guangjian considered using his own style and impasto technique. On the one hand, it can blur out those details and save time, on the other hand, it can also enhance the artistry of the painting, making it easier to attract people's attention.

Thinking of this, Ruan Guangjian was ready to start work.

As for which hero in the gog should be drawn in the first original painting...

Still need to consider

In the office, Pei Qian yawned.

The settlement is less than three months away.

There are a lot of projects going on in the same period, but by next week, the film should be officially finished, and the rough cut version can be produced before the end of the month; and according to the current progress of gog, it can almost test the water with an internal beta version at the end of the month. .

On the haunted house, it is definitely impossible to complete all the projects. The two largest projects may not be able to be completed before this settlement, but the small projects of the second major project should be able to be completed by the end of this month. Two come.

When the time comes, let Ruan Guangjian experience it and kill him!

In short, Pei Qian looked at the schedule, this week should be a relatively leisurely week in the future, and he has to hurry up to read books, review and review.

If the old horse passes the test by his own ability, but Mr. Pei still needs to pass the krypton gold, wouldn't it be very shameful

Look at the school girl Xiao Tang. In addition to shoveling feces, feeding the cats, and taking care of the cats, she has been sitting at the workstation and reading books quietly. It must be easy to get the scholarship.

Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, it would be nice if I could pay someone else to study for me."

"It can only be said that knowledge is priceless!"

Pei Qian sighed and realized that another half an hour had passed, so he hurriedly opened his notes and started to review.

After watching for less than an hour, someone knocked on the door outside.

Pei Qian looked up and saw a group of horses.

"What's the matter?" Mr. Pei, who was interrupted in his study, was a little upset, but he knew that the horse group didn't come often, so he didn't say much.

Ma Yiqun said: "That's it, President Pei. I made another sum of money at the end of the time... "

Pei Qian: "???"

Can you always make money secretly and without a word? Let me be mentally prepared in advance, okay

Pei Qian originally thought that he would be able to relax a little this week, but it turned out to be a mess.

The end point has gone through several development stages from its inception to the present, and now it has turned losses into profits.

Increase the price of full attendance from the very beginning and protect the rights and interests of the bottom writers;

Later, the middle-level authors will be subsidized so that they can obtain the same level of income as the infinite boutique authors;

After that, it will be linked with "Back to the Shore", unified Tenda accounts, and divert a large number of Tenda game players to the website.

After this period of operation, the traffic of the website has already increased. Although the overall website scale and the income of the top authors are still not comparable to the infinite, at least the middle and low-level authors are still enjoying themselves.

So, how to spend the earned money becomes a problem.

"Don't hand it in, just spend it yourself." Based on the principle of "whoever pollutes, whoever manages, whoever earns money, whoever spends it," gave a less thoughtful instruction to Ma Yiqun's report.

"Ah, good President Pei." Ma Yiqun knew that President Pei would most likely react this way, but what President Pei said was one thing, and what he did was another.

Even if you know that President Pei will most likely let the website invest the money in the construction of the website, the process of asking for instructions still cannot be saved.

After all, this is not the same as the website's joint activities, which involves a sum of money.

If it is the same linkage activity with "Back to the Shore" as before, Ma Yiqun, as the person in charge of the website, can make his own decision, because it doesn't cost much.

"Wait a moment."

Ma Yiqun was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by President Pei again.

Pei Qian asked casually, "Where are you going to spend this money?"

Originally, I didn't intend to ask about these things, but Pei Qian suddenly realized that he didn't seem to be able to ask...

Let a group of horses go and spend money by themselves, who can guarantee that he will definitely spend the money in useless places!

Therefore, Pei Qian decided to ask two more questions.

A group of horses smiled and said, "Mr. Pei, I have thought about it."

"Now our website is very attractive to middle and low-level authors, and it has also attracted some loyal players of Tenda games. The popularity of the game channel is very high, forming an effect of 'enclosure and self-promotion'."

"I think the key at the moment is the lack of top authors!"

"So, I consider using this money to dig a few top-level authors who are not satisfied with the status quo indefinitely, especially some authors who are unpopular, powerful and not very valued."

"It may not be easy to dig a great god, but those who earn 30,000 to 50,000 a month and it is difficult to become a great god's author, as long as they are willing to spend money, they should still be able to dig a few."

Pei Qian fell silent.

Sounds very reliable!

Indeed, the biggest problem at the end point is that the ceiling of the website is low, and there is no super popular book that can form a hot spot on the whole network.

The bottom-level and middle-level authors lived fairly well, but the site's ability to create gods was basically zero.

If you can dig a few potential authors in a targeted manner, choose a book with the best data, and then use the resources of the whole network to promote crazy...

Maybe it can really make the finish line even further!

Thinking of this, Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "It's not right."

"The real great gods rely on real hard power, and rely on good works to condense readers, rather than relying on website resources to pile up hard."

"If you poach authors from outside sites, you will definitely have to buy them out at high prices. For authors, they may not be able to continue their previous popularity due to unacceptable conditions and changes in reader groups; while for websites, high price buyouts are not cost-effective and benefit. It’s also hard to guarantee.”

"If you sign a buyout and then require the book's data to meet the standards, it's a bit of a hooligan, and it's actually untenable from a moral point of view. For the author, it's not very attractive."

"In short, this approach can't be wrong, it just doesn't quite match the development direction of the end point."

"In my opinion, it's better to continue to spend this money on middle-level and lower-level authors. If you want to create gods, you can dig from your own author group, why do you have to go to an outside station to dig?"
