With Meng Zai's blessing, Director Tao left.

Before leaving, he took away a stack of beautifully printed "PD Family Carnival" desktop calendars specially customized by Meng Lang to send customers to friends, intending to distribute them to TV station employees as New Year's benefits.

That's right, a whole stack!

It has always been possible for him to borrow flowers and offer Buddha.

Today is December 31, the last day of 2020 in the Gregorian calendar. In order to welcome the New Year, Meng Lang specially asked PD Printing and Publishing Company to make a batch of New Year's calendars.

This batch of calendars is only for sale, not for sale!

The company's employees, PD distributors, suppliers, partners, superiors, and Taomi's family all send a copy.

Old tradition!

Every statutory holiday, or company celebration and important moment, Mr. Meng, who has always been slamming the door, will always be sad to give gifts to everyone......

"Why is it sad?"

"You're not talking nonsense!"

Seeing that Ma Teng had not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, Meng Lang said angrily: "In the past, there were only a few people in the company, and they gave gifts on holidays, which could not only buy people's hearts, but also cost much money. ”

"But now?"

There are more than 5,000 people in the PD Group (excluding the general workers of the PD Toy Factory and the general workers of PD Paradise), and there are almost more than 3,000 people in the Big Bird Group, including Lebao, overseas branches and distributors and suppliers......

The total number of people should be 50,000, right?

Let's not talk about a gift of a few dollars, if it is a little more expensive, it is an expenditure of millions or even tens of millions. In a whole year, the gift expenditure alone is close to 100 million!

"There are so many!"

Hearing this number, Ma Teng, who was frightened, said: "Since it is so expensive, let's cancel this benefit from next year!"

It is not appropriate to cancel the benefit.

After all, it has been inherited for so many years, and many employees will be dissatisfied if they are hastily canceled. You can only start with the value of the gift and reduce your expenses as much as possible.

For example, in previous years, when the number of employees was not large, the value of gifts was generally higher than 100 yuan. But now the gift, a desktop calendar, is gone.

Employees disliked?

It's not easy for Mr. Meng, all the pocket money he grabbed is filled into the park, and he hasn't changed to a new car for so many years, it's too difficult for him!

But then again, since he was disliked by Tao Mi's parents last time, Meng Lang had the idea of changing to a new car.

Ultra tanks are indeed old!

Although he had no problem driving, he liked the car a lot. But I usually attend some public events, pick up and drop off guests and friends, and the ride experience is really bad.

"Do you want to buy a car?"

Ma Teng suggested: "The company just purchased a few official cars in October, why don't you choose one?"

"No, I have other arrangements. ”

Meng Lang muttered, "You can help me ask Wang Kui, does the animation company have a draft plan for the live-action of Transformers?"

Transformers live-action?

Ma Teng blinked and said, "It seems that there is this thing, I heard him mention it." Mr. Meng, are we going to make a live-action version of Transformers?"

"You can give it a try!"

Meng Lang flexed his index finger and knocked on the table and hesitated: "The popularity of the Leader's Evidence series of animations has cultivated a large number of loyal tightropes. If it's made into a movie, we have a solid box office foundation, but ......"

Pengda doesn't have this ability!

Transformers movies, positioned roughly as sci-fi action movies. Explosive maniac Michael Bay, based on the original animated comics, implanted more action movie elements.

This style is difficult to imitate......

None of the directors of the entire Pengda Group, including the major overseas branches, have the characteristics of Michael Bay, and neither can Meng Zai.

If he could create the tension and excitement of Michael Bay's "adrenaline rush", he would not have filmed a divine drama and thunder drama in his previous life and waited for death.

After all, it's a limited ability!

Although the explosion shell has average reviews, it is far less popular with fans than truck drivers. But to be honest, his style is not learnable by the average person.

The style of the exploding shell can't be learned, and the original Transformers has lost its reference significance. If Pengda wants to shoot a live-action version, he can only change his thinking.

That's not easy!

Meng Lang couldn't think of a better solution for a while, after all, the Transformers of Exploding Bei had impressed him, and it was difficult for him to break this shackle.

Why don't you ask someone else?

The first idea came from Yan Tao, he likes the cute painting style very much, after all, he is old and two-dimensional. The live-action version of Transformers he conceived, starring all cute girls.

"The double ponytail kawaii girl fights side by side with a cold steel robot, and she must look good with the cuteness of a beautiful woman and a beast!"

The two-dimensional dead house is really brainy......

kicked Yan Tao, who was full of "Nianghua King Kong", and Meng Lang immediately asked Wang Kui.

His answer was much more serious.

"Isn't the live-action style copied from the animated version? What kind of plot setting, just shoot according to the leader's evidence!"

That's a good idea.

Wang Kui's ideas are actually various "theatrical version" ideas. The style is completely the same, making the live-action version of Transformers a theatrical version of the big movie as a proof of leadership.

Simply strengthen the special effects, change the plot and you're done!

After noting down this highly feasible plan, Meng Lang made another cross-border call and asked Shi Sen and Bai Cang about their views on real people.

"President, what do you think?"

"If it is made into a theatrical version, it will only attract fans of the original book. Fans who haven't seen the anime, or are not interested in it, basically won't watch this movie. ”

"If the magic reform is carried out, although it will be resisted by some fans of the original work, it will break free from this shackle and attract more passers-by fans. But there is a disadvantage that if the version of the magic change is not liked by passers-by fans, and the original fans resist it, then it will ......"

It's completely cold!

To put it simply, the risk of drought and flood protection is low, but the upper limit is low. The real-life magic reform is not as risky as the fan guarantee, but the upper limit is also high.

Exploding Bei chose the magic change!

Because of the excellent quality, it attracted a large number of "non-tightrope" viewers, so he succeeded. If the quality of the finished film is very poor and passers-by don't buy it, then he will definitely be scolded to death.

Meng Lang needs to make a choice.

Is it the theatrical version of the Leader's Certificate, or is it a magic change to attract more passers-by?

"What else are you thinking about!

Yan Tao covered his heart, his eyes blurred and said: "King Kong, a girl full of pink atmosphere, will soon appear in the theater." ”

"Guards, get him out!"

Meng Zai swore to heaven that even if he was poor and starved to death, he would not put on a lace princess dress for Brother Zhuzi.

It's too spicy for the eyes!

Even if PD needs the help of the dead house and has to launch a motherhood work, it will not be the turn of Transformers. Referring to Tsuburaya's practice, isn't the Otter Niang monster Niang fragrant?

"No! What was I thinking!"

Meng Lang, whose thoughts were distorted by Yan Tao, involuntarily appeared in his mind the appearance of "Ultraman Nianghua", and goosebumps rose all over his body.

Soul light!

He's the original Ultraman!

If Ultraman is a mother, what will fans think of him? What will Tao Mi think of him?
