It's not that Cheng Yu'an doesn't understand company management, it's just that with Cheng Lingfeng, a smart and capable little aunt, he doesn't need to get involved in company management.

For example, she sells bit parts to earn money from the coal boss. He wants to do this kind of thing, but can't do it.

To put it bluntly, as a creator, I am a bit thin-skinned.

Another example is now, who knows what Cheng Lingfeng said, China Film Group withdrew from the competition of "The Butterfly Effect". Distance Media accepted Shanghai Film's investment and handed over the mainland distribution rights to the other party.

Cheng Lingfeng was careful about "The Butterfly Effect" and only shared the box office profits with various investors, leaving the copyright income firmly in her hands.

But Cheng Yu'an doesn't need to worry about any of this. All he has to do now is to make the film well.

Time is very tight, and "The Butterfly Effect" is scheduled to be released during the Lunar New Year. This is the first time that remote media has impacted such an important schedule, and its strategic significance to the company's development is self-evident.

On the other hand, "Sniper Phone Booth" continues to gain momentum and has successfully won 26 million at the national box office in the half month since its release.

In all major cities and major ticket offices, the main creators are also running in similar numbers.

Cheng Lingfeng waved her hand and gave each of the leading actors a big red envelope for promotion.

The popularity of "Sniper Phone Booth" is due not only to the quality of the film, but also to its schedule selection.

As I said before, throughout August, only one "Terminator 3" can pose a threat to "Sniper Phone Booth", and the former will not be released until the end of August.

In August, it was almost exclusively dominated by "Sniper Phone Booth".

In addition, this is the first summer vacation after SARS, and the audience is very eager to consume. The combination of several major factors has pushed up the box office of "Sniper Phone Booth".

There are too few movies released nowadays, and even less can be reported. The popularity of "Sniper Phone Booth" occupied the headlines for several days.

And where is the feedback from the audience good?

The box office hit a new high in a certain place again.

Cheng Yu'an no longer wanted to read the media reports, and he was looking for the actors he wanted with the script.

Air Force Political Department Drama Troupe.

His destination is here.

"Hello, I'm looking for Sha Yi." Cheng Yuan said his name.

"Hey, hey, you're not that...that...who." The little girl who received him seemed to recognize Cheng Yu'an.

Cheng Yuan's heart was a little swollen. He didn't expect that someone would recognize him now that he was so angry.

"Li Ming! It's Li Ming! I like you so much! Why did you come to our group?" The little girl held Cheng Yu'an's hand and wouldn't let go.

"Don't be ridiculous, I'm not Li Ming." Cheng Yu'an was a little embarrassed, "Please, I'll find Sha Yi."

"It's not Li Ming, oh, then wait a minute and I'll call you." The little girl walked away.

"Lao Sha, someone is looking for you!" the girl shouted in the theater at the top of her lungs.

"Who is it!" A strong smell of Northeastern slag came from the mouth.

"No, he looks like Li Ming. He's so handsome. Come out and take a look."

Shayi has just finished filming "Healthy Express" and is resting in the group these days.

Shayi is not short, but not very tall either.

The 25-year-old Sha Yi is very handsome, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, and a face so tender that you can pinch water, and he lives up to his reputation as the star of the military arts school.

"Who are you?" Sha Yi didn't know Cheng Yu'an.

"Hello, I'm Cheng Yu'an." Cheng Yu'an reached out to Sha Yi.

"Cheng Yu'an, why does this name sound so familiar to me?" Sha Yi muttered and shook hands with Cheng Yu'an.

"Ah!" the little girl at the reception exclaimed, "I know who you are, you are the director of "Sniper Phone Booth"!"

"I can also be Li Ming." Cheng Yu'an teased.

"Yes, yes." Sha Yi shook Cheng Yu'an's hand enthusiastically, "No wonder why this name sounds so familiar to me. Is it the director of "Sniper Phone Booth"? We went to see the movie the day before yesterday. The filming was really good."

"Thanks."

"Director Cheng came to our group today to find me?" Sha Yi somewhat guessed the purpose of Cheng Yu'an's visit.

"I'm looking for you to film a movie, why should I do anything with you?" Cheng Yu'an likes to deal with smart people.

"Okay! I'll take it!" Sha Yi agreed without saying a word.

"You accepted the script before you even read it?" Cheng Yu'an asked.

"You are the hottest young director at the moment, and no one would accept your plays." Cheng Yu'an likes the straightforward character of Northeastern people.

"Let's read the script first. I'm looking for you to play the male lead." Cheng Yu'an said and handed the script to Sha Yi.

Sha Yi sat in the theater and read the script and said with a smile: "This story is good, I like the ending. I am playing the young Li Aiwen, right?"

"Um."

"Okay, no problem. I'll ask the group for approval later and ask for leave." Sha Yi immediately accepted.

"Brother Sha, there is one more thing."

"What?"

"It's just that you can't speak Northeastern dialect in the play. I just stayed with you for a few minutes, and all I can think about now is Northeastern dialect." Cheng Yu'an said with a smile.

"No problem. I usually speak Northeastern dialect smoothly, but I don't speak it in the movie." Sha Yi explained, "It's getting late, let's have a meal together."

"No, I have to rush back." Cheng Yu'an declined.

"What's the point? Why don't you rush back to eat?" The enthusiasm of the Northeastern people was reflected at this time. Sha Yi forced Cheng Yu'an to walk backstage and said as he walked, "A group of us were there before you came.

Let’s figure out where to eat. You’re here just in time, so I’ll introduce it to you.”

Cheng Yu'an was pulled to the backstage. There were quite a few people there, and Cheng Yu'an could even call them by name.

Yan Ni, fat man Jiang Chao, another fat man Hong Jiantao, director Shang Jin and Fan Ming.

"Look who I brought for you." Sha Yi shouted as soon as he entered the door.

"Director Cheng!" Yan Ni shouted.

"Do you know him?" Director Shang Jin asked.

"I went to their company for an interview before, but I was rejected because I didn't meet the age requirements," Yan Ni said.

Cheng Yu'an quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Sister Yan Ni, I'm so sorry."

"It's okay, it's common for actors to be criticized."

"Next time we cooperate, I will definitely find you if I have a suitable book."

"I don't need to introduce you. We all know each other," Sha Yi said.

"No need." This group of people was vaguely headed by Director Shang Jin, "Who among those who work in this circle doesn't know Cheng Yu'an from Distance Media."

"Teacher Shang Jin, please don't say that." Cheng Yu'an waved his hand, "I know a few of them, and I watch "The Story of the Cooking Class" every day."

A few people found a restaurant and started changing glasses.

"Lao Sha," Sha Yi went out to use the bathroom. When he came out, he was intercepted by the fat man Jiang Chao. "Tell me honestly, how did you and Director Cheng meet?"

"I didn't know him before, but today he came to see me for filming."

"Filming? That science fiction film?" Jiang Chao said.

"Um."

"What is that movie about? Is there anyone I can act in?" Jiang Chao became excited.

Most of them are not good at taking on external roles. In recent years, they have been filming some sitcoms and small-budget TV series within the system.

Many people want to take on big productions from outside.

"I can't tell you this, there is a confidentiality clause." Sha Yi decisively rejected Jiang Chao's request.

"Then what are you playing?"

Sha Yi chuckled, this one can actually say: "The number one male."

When the two returned to the box, several people were already drunk, and Cheng Yu'an also told Sha Yi to play the male lead.

"The company will continue to grow, and there will be more and more projects. In the future, I will look for you one by one to film. Director Shang Jin, I toast to you. You are the best in domestic sitcoms." Cheng Yu'an gave a thumbs up.
