Chapter 171 Unwise Choice
“Let’s welcome the main creative staff of the production team of “Charlotte’s Troubles” with warm applause!”

"Wow, wow, wow..." There was thunderous applause in the conference room.

When Peng Mo and others walked into the conference room, everyone's eyes looked past him and behind him.

"Whipster, holy shit, it's really him. He doesn't look forty at all. He looks younger than me at thirty!"

"Shen Teng! It's Shen Teng!"

"Gu Jialan, I really like her ancient costume look! Can I get her autograph later?"

……

Tang Haibin held Peng Mo's hand and said, "Director Peng, thank you for your hard work!"

Peng Mo was more excited than anyone else present at this moment.

His first directorial debut! It actually earned 3 billion in five days.

Three billion in five days!
Many directors have spent their entire lives making movies, but may not be able to achieve a box office of 3 billion.

And he reached heights that many people had never reached before with just one movie.

"Boss Tang! It's not hard at all. It's all thanks to your trust and support..."

Having said that, he slightly turned sideways to make way for Shen Lang who was standing behind him.

"Speaking of hard work, our teacher Shen is the hardest-working one in the entire crew..."

When Tang Haibin and Wang Jian saw Shen Lang, the smiles on their faces became even brighter.

Tang Haibin held Shen Lang's hand and said, "Teacher Shen, I really didn't expect that your screenwriting and acting abilities are both top-notch! I'm impressed, I'm impressed, hahahaha..."

Shen Lang smiled and said, "This time it just so happened that Mr. Gu and I had the inspiration. When it comes to screenwriting ability, Director Peng is still the most professional!"

Wang Jian smiled and said, "Don't be polite. I've asked around. Mr. Shen Biao, an old screenwriter from our country, is your father. This is a genetic inheritance, a talent!"

……

After some greetings, everyone sat down at the conference table.

In formal occasions, there is naturally some business flattery, but Tang Haibin is a very pragmatic person.

After a short while of awkward chatting, he turned the topic to the main topic.

"I invited everyone here this time because I have a few things I want to discuss with you!"

"Of course, we have communicated before!"

"That's right! First of all, on behalf of the company, I would like to sign a contract with Director Peng and the Firecracker Comedy Team that Shen Teng, Mary and others are in, and invite you to become a special guest studio under Penguin Pictures!"

As soon as this news was released, it caused an uproar in the conference room.

Everyone is thinking about one question.

Penguin has funds and channels, but what it lacks is an outstanding domestic film and television creative team.

Peng Mo and Firecracker Comedy proved their directing and acting abilities with "Charlotte's Troubles".

The cooperation is a win-win situation for both parties!

A match made in heaven.

Although Peng Mo and others had already discussed this matter with Penguin, they were still very excited when they heard the news.

Joining Penguin in the form of a studio is currently the most advantageous form of cooperation for them.

Studios are independent legal entities. They have their own creative thinking and are less influenced by investors. Moreover, they can build film characters around the characters of the studio team.

The most important thing is that you can enjoy the shade by leaning against a big tree.

With the protection of Penguin, the giant Buddha that has just entered the market, as long as they have a good script, they can take off instantly!

Shen Teng, Mary and others were also happy.

In the past, their studio could only be described as a comedy studio formed by a group of classmates and friends, who usually performed in stage plays and small drama theaters.

Only in the past two years has there been some improvement, with Shen Teng and Mary from the team appearing on the Spring Festival Gala.

But most of the Firecracker Comedy team members, including Shen Teng, Mary and Peng Mo, have no way to realize their abilities.

But now, with Penguin, they can create with confidence and boldness, and there are a bigger stage and more channels waiting for them.

For example, variety shows and various commercial performances.

……

Peng Mo said with a smile on behalf of everyone, "Mr. Tang, I believe we will be able to cooperate sooner in the future!" "Happy cooperation!" Tang Haibin said to Gu Jialan with a smile, "Mr. Gu! Through this "Charlotte's Troubles", I am very optimistic about the acting skills of the artists under your company!"

Gu Jialan smiled slightly and nodded at Tang Haibin.

"So, I would like to establish long-term cooperation with your company. Our company's films, television shows, new media web dramas, etc., will give priority to using your company's actors!"

Hearing this, Gu Jialan's eyes lit up and he said, "Boss Tang, thank you very much for your recognition of our studio. Don't worry, I will definitely give priority to the actors in our studio to appear in your company's works!"

"That's great!" Tang Haibin smiled and nodded at Gu Jialan.

At this point, it can be said that all the main creators of "Charlotte's Troubles" have benefited from Penguin Pictures, except...

Everyone's eyes were turned to Shen Lang, who was smiling all the time, sitting upright, and looking modest and cautious.

"Teacher Shen!" Tang Haibin smiled at Shen Lang, "Before, we gave you two choices. What is your final decision?"

Everyone present was stunned!

"The company has spared no effort in inviting Shen Lang. They even have a choice?"

"That's right. I don't know what the specific options are, but the conditions must be very generous!"

"Don't talk, listen to what Shen Lang says..."

At this time, Shen Lang smiled and said, "Thank you, President Tang and President Wang, for your recognition and support."

"As an artist under Mr. Gu's studio, the focus of all my work revolves around Mr. Gu!"

……

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone around him looked at him with contempt.

"Damn, Shen Lang is really good, isn't he? He's such a great guy in the workplace! Look how he coaxed Gu Jialan, her eyes are almost curved with laughter!"

"Don't you think about it? Shen Lang has joined Jia Lan Studio since his comeback. If he didn't flatter the boss, how could he have so many resources? Every movie is a hit!"

"That's right. Before I saw Shen Lang, I thought he was just a wretched middle-aged man like Wang Xiansheng. But when I saw him, I realized, damn, he's so handsome. If I were Gu Jialan, I would also be willing to be licked by her!"

"Don't destroy the goddess in my heart!"

"Saury, Saury, I meant that word literally."

……

At this time, Shen Lang continued, "But President Gu has always been a good leader and a good boss who is considerate of others. She thinks that if I can join Penguin, it will be more helpful for my personal development. Therefore, I want to sign with Penguin Pictures in a capacity other than an actor."

Tang Haibin nodded when he heard this. Shen Lang’s choice was not unexpected to him.

Employees who are loyal to the company are always the boss's favorite. "So, will you choose to be our CEO Wang's deputy, or be the person in charge of the new media module that the company has just established?"

"what……"

There was an uproar in the conference room.

The film module is undoubtedly the most important module in Penguin Pictures. The person in charge of this module, even if he is a deputy, will have an annual salary of one million.

Wang Jian invited sincerely, "Teacher Shen, please join us. I believe that as long as we work together, we will definitely make Penguin Films the top of the industry!"

Wang Jian spoke very seriously, which shows his love for talent.

Just when everyone thought Shen Lang would agree.

Shen Lang smiled and said, "Sorry, Mr. Wang, I'm more interested in the new media module!"

"what?"

Everyone looked at Shen Lang in disbelief.

New media module?
That was a module that the company had just established and there were only a few employees.

Such a department obviously cannot be compared with a weighted module like the movie module.

Could it be that Shen Lang is eyeing the position of module manager?

That's not right either.

The person in charge of the new media module does not have even half the say of the deputy in the film module.

Penguin Pictures has established this module only to adapt to the market.

The real development prospect lies in the film and TV series sector!

This choice...is unwise!
