    "Boss, your coffee.?" Screenwriter Zhang Zhixiang handed over a cup of coffee and gave Manager Liu a few squeezes on his shoulders.  "Well, not bad, I will consider giving you a salary increase next time." "Thank you, boss." Manager Liu slumped down on the sofa, took the coffee, blew a leisurely breath, took a small sip, and felt comfortable.  Well, the company's coffee is really good.  He glanced at the applicant below who was scratching his head and imagining the plot.  After assessing so many people, only a few people are recruited. Are your standards too strict?  But it¡¯s not enough to be lax. Compared with other departments, the presence of my own screenwriting department is too weak. Most of the time, it just tinkers with the boss¡¯s scripts and conceived the comic. Now even the comic plot department has been  I have been assigned to work full-time. If I don¡¯t come up with some good scripts, my department seems to have no value.  So far, the screenwriting department has produced very few successful works.  How sad!  "By the way, boss, Mr. Li and Mr. Tang are here." "Ah? Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Manager Liu quickly stood up and sat up straight, and turned to look at the door.  The two of them had already opened the door and entered.  "Mr. Li, Mr. Tang." Manager Liu quickly stood up and greeted his two immediate superiors.  "Sit down, feel free to do what you did just now." Li Xuechu said with a smile.  Manager Liu smiled awkwardly, it seemed that he had been seen.  The big-eyed guy is always a little slow every time he speaks out a reminder. Could this guy be doing it on purpose?  Manager Liu glanced dissatisfied at Zhang Zhixiang, who had a harmless expression on his face.  "Liu Sheng, how was the result of this selection? Did you find any good ideas?" Tang Jingnian asked.  "Most people haven't submitted their manuscripts yet. After all, the stipulated time is four hours." Manager Liu handed over two manuscripts: "These are the two manuscripts submitted first, and the quality is not very good." "This time you are submitting again  What's the weird question?" "Haha. Suppose three friends suddenly got superpowers by chance." Manager Liu glanced at Li Xuechu secretly: "Because I established a special effects company, the test questions I gave during this period were more accurate.  The themes of magic and science fiction are close. "That's right. This idea is quite innovative." Li Xuechu expressed his appreciation in due course.  It seems that I have seen this kind of theme in later generations. What is it?  I can't remember it for a while.  If he couldn't remember it, he simply stopped thinking about it. Li Xuechu looked through the two manuscripts that Manager Liu thought were not good.  ¡°After reading it ten lines at a time, Li Xuechu also agreed with Manager Liu¡¯s view. It was a model of working together to defeat bad guys. There was nothing new and the plot was not very good.  Seeing that the big boss had no objection, Manager Liu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.  If the boss feels that he is just fooling around, it will be difficult for him to step down.  The thirty or so people below were watching.  While the three of them were talking, another person submitted a manuscript.  "Please leave your address first. We will call you to inform you when there is a result." Manager Liu sent the person away as a routine, and then took the manuscript over and reviewed it directly.  The man said goodbye to Li Xuechu, lowered his head and walked out of the office.  "What's the matter, Mr. Li?" Tang Jingnian asked, seeing Li Xuechu's thoughtful look.  "It's nothing, it looks familiar." Li Xuechu glanced at Manager Liu who was looking over.  "Don't worry about this, just follow your standards." Li Xuechu recognized that person.  The employee of the real estate company who introduced the house to me when I moved before.  I remember he said that he was interested in writing, but he didn't expect to come to his company to interview screenwriters. I don't know if that company collapsed or because he didn't want to do it.  A few minutes later.  "This manuscript is quite innovative, I think it is reliable. If there is nothing better, I think this person is good." Manager Liu handed over the manuscript.  Li Xuechu took the manuscript paper and after reading it for a while, he remembered a movie he had seen in later generations: Super Power Out of Control.  The plot of this manuscript is surprisingly similar to that of a later pseudo-documentary.  The subject matter is not written in heroic mode, but describes the self-expansion and destruction caused by the weak in life who suddenly gain superpowers.  It was easy to write due to time constraints.  However, the general plot is exactly the same as that of later generations.  "It's pretty good. It seems that I still gained something today." Li Xuechu said with a smile.  "Can it be adapted into a movie?" Tang Jingnian was mainly concerned about this.  "The requirements for this special effect are very high. There are no conditions for at least five years to produce the effect." The special effects of the Hong Kong movie in 1983 cannot be called special effects, but the Americans can barely do it. After all, Star Wars has been released several times.  Years have passed, but Li Xuechu has no plans to hire foreign aid, especially when the market outlook is unclear.??It doesn't matter if this script is released for ten years. Anyway, there is no shortage of themes. The main consideration is market recognition.  "No matter what, it is a good subject after all. I think the company's screenwriting team can be expanded again." Li Xuechu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter if the script is sealed first, it can always be filmed in the future." "That's good."  The source of a movie is always the script. Although it is temporarily unavailable, getting a good script is always a good thing.  Li Xuechu looked at the signature of the manuscript and made sure that the person admitted it correctly.  Xiangjiang is not a big place and you can always meet people you know.  ?Left the screenwriting department and returned to his office.  "Boss, this building is too empty for us. Should we rent more space?" "There's no need to worry about this. You know that our company is expanding at a very fast pace. For the time being, the space is empty. Anyway, we can't rent it now."  If you can't get a good price, you might as well leave it alone. " Tang Jingnian was quite dissatisfied. There were so many office spaces left empty. Thinking about the wasted rent every year, that was a lot of money.  But the boss has said so, so it¡¯s hard for me to say anything else.  Li Xuechu also has his own plan. Now that the overall economy is so depressed, the rent of office buildings has been pushed to a very low price. Rather than renting it out at a low price, it is better to learn from later domestic real estate companies.  Give him a break for a year or two and wait until the price rebounds.  ??Office spaces are different from residential buildings. One lease lasts for three to five years. Considering the speed of Hong Kong¡¯s economic recovery, renting out now may not be cost-effective.  "By the way, boss, the production of The Notebook was completed yesterday. Isn't it time to start thinking about the schedule?" Li Xuechu smiled bitterly. The film originally planned to be released on Valentine's Day was delayed for a month before it was completed.  Now is not a good time to release the film. The rush for the Spring Festival release has just passed and the summer release is still early, so it is neither embarrassing nor embarrassing.  "It's up to you, but it's best to postpone it altogether, maybe to coincide with the summer release." "It might be better to release it at the end of May or early June, but it will take a long time to wait." "It's okay, it will be later.  It¡¯s just a little late, and it just happens to be sent to Cannes for exhibition.¡± (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
