Chapter 7 Managing Upward
Liu Yifei knocked her head.

She felt that her future self must have a brain full of water.

But it's hard to say. According to the system's "prediction", she will collaborate with Jackie Chan and Jet Li on that big Sino-US production, and it will probably start shooting next year.

"It must be a conflict of schedules, not my poor taste."

Liu Yifei comforted herself in her heart.

She turned over and thought about what happened in the afternoon. She made up the identity of Zhou Qianqian and got to know Gu Bei.

At first, I just wanted to tease Gu Bei.

Later, she didn't want to reveal her true identity.

Because Gu Bei was obviously not familiar with her, if he knew her identity, he would definitely have to search for her information on the Internet.

However, most of the information about her on the Internet is bad.

She was a little afraid that Gu Bei really believed the information.

After all, many people really believed it.

It would be terrible if Gu Bei was the same as them.

As she thought about it, her eyes gradually became darker and she fell asleep.

Early the next morning.

Liu Yifei was awakened by the sound of shoveling snow.

She crawled out of the bed in a daze and suddenly felt a chill. Even the sweater on her body could not resist the coldness that was transmitted into her body.

"I forgot to take off my clothes last night."

Liu Yifei was a little annoyed.

After reading a book yesterday, I was a little tired from crying, so I thought of lying down and resting for a while, but I fell asleep in a short while.

She shivered again from the cold and simply got up and put on her clothes.

Through the glass window, you can see that the world outside is already covered with snow, with thick snow everywhere.

The men in the neighborhood are organizing themselves to shovel snow to clear the roads.

"There shouldn't be any classes today."

Liu Yifei suddenly felt in a good mood.

She took out her cell phone and saw a text message from the training teacher, saying that she would be suspended from school for two days.

At the same time, she also saw the text message from Gu Bei.

[Do you have an email address? Send it to me.]

Liu Yifei was puzzled and simply dialed the number.

This time it finally worked.

"Hello? What do you want your mailbox for?"

"I just revised the filming plan last night, and I need to sync it with you, the investor."

Gu Bei had already woken up and was sitting in front of his laptop.

In this era without wireless headphones, you can’t continue working after answering the phone.

He simply picked up the coffee on the table and started drinking.

"So formal!"

Liu Yifei felt a little strange.

When she came to the crew to film, the shooting plans were in the form of sheets of paper, which were stuffed into the crack of their room door before dawn every day. Sometimes the script for the day was also stuffed in at this time.

In comparison, Gu Bei's approach seemed very formal, just like going to work.

"This is all our hard-earned money, so we must make sure it is foolproof!"

Gu Bei has been working in the Internet company for so many years and has long been accustomed to various reports at work.

If I don’t align the granularity every day, I’ll feel a little uncomfortable!

Liu Yifei thought about it and decided not to register the email address she had used several times at work. Instead, she registered a Penguin email address that only she could log into.

"By the way, I called you so many times last night, why didn't you call me back?"

"Really? I guess he didn't see it." Gu Bei disagreed. Mobile phones are still used very rarely these days. If you don't receive a call, the phone screen is so small that you don't usually pay attention to the notifications such as missed calls and unread text messages.

After a pause, Gu Bei continued, "I've sent the shooting plan to your email."

"Don't hang up yet! Don't hang up yet! I'll go check it out."

Liu Yifei became interested, pushed open the door, and trotted into the next room.

While she was waiting for the computer to start up, a little head popped out from under the covers in the room and asked drowsily, "Xixi, what's wrong?"

"Mengqi, let me use the computer."

Liu Yifei answered Xia Mengqi who was still half asleep.

Xia Mengqi soon stopped worrying about it, turned over and fell asleep again.

Liu Yifei planned to stay in New York for two or three months this time and had no plans to stay in a hotel.

But she was already an adult, and it was not appropriate for her to live with her stepfather, so Liu Xiaoli arranged for her to stay at a friend's house for a while.

The computer took a while to boot up and it took a long time to enter the system.

Liu Yifei opened the webpage and logged into the Penguin mailbox which she had not used for a long time.

Sure enough, I saw a new email in my mailbox, and the attachment contained a detailed shooting plan.

It details the shooting time, scenes and locations.

It has also been carefully typeset to ensure strong readability, so that you can clearly see the arrangements for various matters at a glance.

"It's written so neatly!" Liu Yifei sighed with emotion. She had been troubled by the typesetting of her paper before.

"When do investors plan to come and inspect it?"

"I still have to attend training classes," Liu Yifei said with a bitter look on her face. "I'm preparing for the Yale School of Drama entrance exam."

"I didn't realize you were two years older than me."

Gu Bei was a little surprised. Looking at Zhou Qianqian's appearance, he originally thought that she was younger than him and was a student in the same class or the next class.

But the Yale School of Drama is an independent professional college.

Just like law school and medical school, you can only apply after graduating from undergraduate school.

This means that Zhou Qianqian has graduated from university.

"Yeah! I see you're going to the film room on Sunday. Can I come and see?"

Liu Yifei felt a little guilty and quickly changed the subject.

At the same time, I adjusted Zhou Qianqian's age setting in my mind by two years.

“If investors want to come, then there will definitely be no problem.

But you have to come early, because if there’s a problem with the film, I’ll have to organize some reshoots in the afternoon.”

Gu Bei chatted with her for a while longer, and then used the excuse of sending the address to finish his upward management work for the day.

He invited Zhou Qianqian to the set mainly to reassure her.

Young girls are generally very sensitive about their reputation. Even if they have doubts in their hearts, they will only discuss it with their best friends instead of taking the initiative to ask Gu Bei, which can easily lead to the matter being exposed.

Take her for a walk around the set and you won’t have to worry about this problem.

Gu Bei first sent Zhou Qianqian the address of the post-production company, and then continued to type code on the computer.

Friday.

Gu Bei arrived at the apartment scene early in the morning.

The block where this apartment is located is the famous Hell's Kitchen.

Contrary to the traditional impression that this is a slum, the security conditions in Hell's Kitchen are now quite good.

After all, this place is close to Midtown, and once other places have been developed, real estate developers will naturally set their sights on this piece of fat meat.

As for the immigrants who originally lived here, the rising cost of living will make them leave on their own initiative and move to places like Brooklyn.

What Gu Bei values ​​here are the well-preserved old buildings, which are no longer common in Manhattan.

Of course, the rent is also cheap.
