Training the Heavens

Chapter 132 Movie Release
Gao Jialin had read the script, and there was a very important scene in it, which was the burning of Dunhuang City. Sato Jun'ya planned to actually shoot it and really set fire to the ancient city. In this way, the city that had just been built would be gone, which was such a pity.

"In fact, if you want to achieve the effect the director wants, you don't need to burn down the city directly. You can also use some special effects." This is the premise of Gao Jialin's idea. After all, the movie still needs to be shot.

"They don't want to do this because they think it's troublesome and want to save trouble. In that case, don't worry for now. Continue to cooperate with the crew's filming. When they need to shoot the fire scene, they will definitely ask you for cooperation! After all, such a large fire is very dangerous."

"Then you can tell them they can burn it, but afterward they have to remove the trash and restore the site to its original state! Burning such a large city, how much trash would be generated? And how much would it cost to clean it all up and remove it? A quick calculation by the crew would tell them it would be more cost-effective to use special effects, like burning large models."

The White City of Minas Tirith in "The Lord of the Rings" was filmed using similar methods, and similar technology was also used in "Star Wars", so the plan mentioned by Gao Jialin is still very feasible.

"Oh, Reporter Gao, your idea is fantastic!" Local leaders clapped their hands excitedly. This way, the city should be preserved, which would be a great benefit to the local community.

Gao Jialin smiled but said nothing. Perhaps they were not unable to think of such a method, but because the drama was funded by foreigners, they did not dare to use many methods boldly?
Now that Gao Jialin has brought it up, there will be no problem. If something goes wrong later, there will be an excuse to shift the blame.

Gao Jialin was not worried about these things, because the ancient city was indeed preserved, which meant that the Japanese side did not actually want to burn it down.

After staying in Dunhuang for a few days, Gao Jialin said goodbye and left. He first took a train back to Xi'an, and then flew from Xi'an to Shanghai. School had not started yet when he arrived, so he could use this time to deal with the matters of the furniture factory.

Gao Jialin gave the position of factory director to Gao Jiasuo and asked someone to help him register a new company with Gao Jiawang as the manager. "Our new company will mainly focus on technology transfer. If it is successful, it will definitely be easier to make money than making furniture."

Gao Jiawang was confused. "I don't understand technology. Why don't you find someone else to be the manager?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I do." Gao Jialin handed over the information he had collected at Xi'an Jiaotong University. "These are all new technologies developed by Jiaotong University teachers and students. I've selected some that are more practical and in great demand in the market and recorded them. You can come over later with the money and buy these technologies."

"Oh, by the way, you'll need to find a few lawyers familiar with the Patent Law and pay them to draft a contract. If the patent has already been registered, you can just buy it directly; if it hasn't been registered yet, you'll have to help register it."

"Tomorrow I'll find a few people who are familiar with this kind of work to teach you. You can learn by practicing. Don't worry about making mistakes. As long as you remember the lessons and don't make the same mistakes again, that's all that matters."

Gao Jialin had already discussed such detailed issues, so Gao Jiawang couldn't refuse and agreed. "Then I'll give it a try. Which unit is responsible for this matter? The Patent Office? If I remember correctly, a leader from the Patent Office came to our factory to buy furniture before, and I delivered it to their house. How about I take some things to his house and ask him about patent applications and transfers?"

"Okay, you go give it a try first. If you can establish some connections, that's great. Having acquaintances there will help speed up the patent registration process." Gao Jialin was very pleased. Gao Jiawang had made rapid progress since arriving in Shanghai. After asking the leader about his home's decor, Gao Jialin also gained some understanding of his preferences. Based on this information, he bought some gifts for Gao Jiawang to take with him.

The leader was a little cold at first, but he felt much more relaxed after listening to Gao Jiawang's words. What he said did not violate the regulations, so he happily accepted the gift and patiently told Gao Jiawang some tips on patent transfer and registration.

From then on, Gao Jiawang often visited the company, learning knowledge and improving his relationship with his leader. He even took the initiative to bring a junior of the leader into the company, offered him a good salary, and let him be responsible for handling the formalities in the future.

"It's indeed faster to let him take care of these things than to do it yourself, but you can't put all your eggs in one basket. You can go to other districts and find someone similar. That way, even if one of them has a problem, it won't have much of an impact." Gao Jialin suggested.

"Okay, I've got that. I'll go ask around tomorrow. It shouldn't be difficult to find such a person." Gao Jiawang has learned a lot these days. The Patent Office doesn't have a high status nowadays, and even the leaders find it difficult to arrange work for the younger generation. As long as he offers a suitable salary, he will definitely be able to find someone.

Gao Jialin introduced Gao Jiawang to a leader of the industrial and commercial department and asked him to go through the procedures to register the company. He then returned to Pujiang College, reported, registered, and started his last semester in college.

There is a popular saying in universities in later generations: "If you don't prepare for the postgraduate entrance examination in your senior year, every day will feel like New Year's Day." Gao Jialin is in this situation now. He has resigned from his work in the Student Union and the Student Federation. There are not many courses in his senior year, and even his work is done. Now, apart from his graduation thesis, it can be said that he has nothing to worry about.

The other people in the dormitory were a little nervous because they didn't know what unit they would be assigned to when they graduated next year, but they were only a little nervous because even if it was worse, it wouldn't be that bad. It would definitely be a good job that ordinary people dream of.

What I am most worried about are probably those young couples who are secretly in love. If they are not assigned to the same place after graduation, it will be troublesome. Maybe the relationship will break up.

They tried their best to think of every possible way, hoping to be assigned to the same place. Once successful, they would soon be able to consider getting married. Now they don’t have to save for a down payment to buy a house. Both of them have stable jobs, and they can get married as long as they are willing.

Soon, the senior students' worries were blown away by another thing - the movie "Meet Young Friends" had completed post-production and was officially released.

Students from all over the school were excited and rushed to the nearby cinema to queue up to buy tickets. They were eager to know what this movie shot on their campus was like.
