Chapter 5 (Seeking recommendation votes on Monday)
"Yu Xiaoshu, why are you here?"
Zhang Cheng looked at Yu Xiaoshu in surprise and said.
What a coincidence.
"Teacher Zhang, I forgot that you are also from the Imperial Capital Film and Television Academy."
The staff member leading Yu Xiaoshu suddenly said, "Then it's just right for you, Mr. Zhang, to help Mr. Yu Xiaoshu get familiar with the work environment. From today on, Mr. Yu Xiaoshu will be your screenwriter for the first episode."
Zhang Cheng was stunned: "What?"
Others were even more stunned.
Just now everyone in the screenwriter department was gossiping about Yu Xiaoshu, but then the real culprit showed up.
"Why let him write one for us?"
At this time, a bald man in his 50s came out of the office. He said angrily, "We already have a useless screenwriter in the first department. Do you want us to support another one? Do you think our screenwriter department is a waste recycling station?"
"Teacher Liu, this was not arranged by us. It was decided by Mr. Wu. If you really have any opinions, you can communicate with Mr. Wu."
The staff member laughed dryly and said, "Anyway, I have brought the person here, my mission is completed, and I will leave first."
As soon as the words fell, the staff left quickly.
After all, he couldn't afford to offend Liu Xiang. Liu Xiang was the great screenwriter of Screenwriter Department 1 and also the head of Screenwriter Department 1.
Different from the screenwriting department structure of Kunlang Film and Television, the screenwriter of Huxing Film and Television also serves as the person in charge.
snort.
Liu Xiang looked at Yu Xiaoshu and snorted coldly, then said to Zhang Cheng: "You are responsible for introducing him."
Obviously, Liu Xiang dislikes Yu Xiaoshu very much. It's not just because Yu Xiaoshu is a waste now, but more importantly, there is an old grudge between the two of them.
However, this matter was decided by Wu Hai, and Liu Xiang could not refuse Wu Hai in public, so Liu Xiang left the Screenwriting Department 1 and went to find Wu Hai.
As soon as Liu Xiang left, the atmosphere in the screenwriting department became less awkwardly quiet.
"Yu Xiaoshu, are you really divorced?"
"Yu Xiaoshu, is it true what was said online that you were fired by Kunlang Films? Did you resign on your own?"
"Yes, Yu Xiaoshu, if you didn't resign on your own, how could you have found a new job today after being fired yesterday?"
Everyone gathered around.
After all, when you meet the real person, you must find out what's going on.
Anyway, Yu Xiaoshu is a waste now, so there is no need for them to give him face.
"Yu Xiaoshu..."
Zhang Cheng looked at Yu Xiaoshu with some worry. He was really afraid that Yu Xiaoshu would explode.
"Haha, we are really divorced. It is also true that I was fired from Kunlang Films."
Yu Xiaoshu looked at everyone and said with a smile.
These are not secrets.
There was no need for him to hide it.
"But why did you quit your job and come to Tiger Star Films right after that?"
A screenwriter continued to ask questions.
Obviously, Yu Xiaoshu in front of him has become a negative example in the screenwriter community. Many people like to use Yu Xiaoshu as an example, saying that screenwriters are not competing for a moment, but for a lifetime.
For this reason, no one believes that the company will take the initiative to invite Yu Xiaoshu to join the company.
How could a waste possibly catch Wu Hai's eye?
"Zhang Cheng, I don't know the names of these teachers yet. Can you introduce them to me?"
Yu Xiaoshu turned around and said to Zhang Cheng.
"Oh, ok."
Zhang Cheng quickly said, "This is our Level 3 screenwriter from Screenwriting Department 1, Pang Yong."
Yu Xiaoshu said, "Hello, Teacher Pang."
Pang Yong said: "No need to call me teacher, I'm older than you, just call me Brother Yong."
Yu Xiaoshu readily agreed: "Hello, Brother Yong."
Zhang Cheng continued his introduction.
There are 6 screenwriters in total for Screenwriter 1.
A great screenwriter is Liu Xiang.
A level 5 screenwriter, who is also the only woman to have written a single film, is named Yu Hanlei.
A level 4 screenwriter named Jiang Ji.
There are two level 3 screenwriters, one is Pang Yong and the other is Li Long.
In addition to the above five screenwriters, the only one left is Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng ranks last in screenwriting for 2 parts and is a first-level screenwriter.
That’s right, Zhang Cheng is the waste that Liu Xiang mentioned.
“It shouldn’t be like that.”
Yu Xiaoshu frowned slightly.
Currently, Yu Xiaoshu is sitting next to Zhang Cheng at his workstation.
To put it more bluntly, Zhang Cheng divided his workstation into two and gave half to Yu Xiaoshu.
After all, every man has his place.
Wu Hai made the arrangement just for Zou Jun's sake, and then when the three months were up, he would let Yu Xiaoshu leave on his own.
How could Wu Hai arrange everything for Yu Xiaoshu so easily?
Wu Hai even hoped that Yu Xiaoshu would leave before he could even last three months.
All this was within Yu Xiaoshu's expectations, but what puzzled him was Zhang Cheng's experience.
This Zhang Cheng is Yu Xiaoshu’s classmate.
Yes, they are all from the 2009 screenwriting class.
After searching my memory, I found that although Zhang Cheng was not as outstanding as Yu Xiaoshu in college, he was still a qualified screenwriter.
But how did it come to this? ?
Yu Xiaoshu wanted to ask Zhang Cheng, but Zhang Cheng didn't want to talk more.
He just told Yu Xiaoshu that Liu Xiang had a bad temper and looked down on academics, so he should be careful.
"oh??"
Yu Xiaoshu looked at Zhang Cheng with a frown on his face, then relaxed: "Don't worry, I know."
He was not worried about Liu Xiang. Yu Xiaoshu just wanted to see whether Wu Hai would disappoint him.
…
"Teacher Liu, please don't be anxious. Let me explain slowly."
Wu Hai was quite respectful to Liu Xiang. He smiled and stood up to make a cup of tea for Liu Xiang, then explained: "I know Yu Xiaoshu doesn't have much ability now."
"Then why do we still need him?"
Liu Xiang raised his head and said, "Yu Xiaoshu is a piece of crap right now. I don't mind you forcing Zhang Cheng to write a screenplay for me, but forcing another piece of crap on me is also harmful to our company. After all, we are going to produce a high-quality web series next."
"I know."
Wu Hai shook his head slightly and said, "But I owe you a favor, so I can only arrange for Yu Xiaoshu to come in. But don't worry, in three months, if Yu Xiaoshu is still as useless as before, then I will fire him."
Liu Xiang's eyes flashed with hatred: "What if I discipline him?"
"Haha, you are the head of the screenwriting department, it is only natural for you to discipline Yu Xiaoshu."
Wu Hai said to Liu Xiang: "Teacher Liu, you know what I mean, right? If he can't stand it and leaves early, then I won't say anything more."
"Okay, I understand."
Liu Xiang understood immediately after hearing Wu Hai's words: "Then I'll leave first."
"Wait a moment."
Wu Hai stopped Liu Xiang and said, "If you hadn't come to me, I would have come to you. Next month, the company is going to launch four web dramas, one about urban life, one about ancient costumes, one about suspense, and one about martial arts. Your task as the screenwriter for the first drama is to write an urban life web drama as soon as possible. How about that? Can you do it?"
"No problem. I already have a few half-finished copies in my hands. I'll go back and polish them."
Liu Xiang said confidently.
"That's good."
Wu Hai nodded slightly, and then said lightly: "But Mr. Liu, you can leave these to other screenwriters. Zhang Cheng has been training for so long, and it's time for him to try to be independent."
"oh?"
Liu Xiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Of course, Xiao Zhang is good, too."
"Yes, that's right, Mr. Liu, you are the person in charge of the screenwriting department 1, and you are also a senior, so sometimes you should be more tolerant of the juniors. We can talk about the word 'trash' in private, and in the future, you still have to give the juniors some face in public."
Wu Hai said with a smile: "Teacher Liu, what do you think?"
Liu Xiang's expression changed, but he still smiled: "Yes, Mr. Wu, you are right, I understand, then if there is nothing else, I will leave first."
"Well, go ahead."
Wu Hai waved his hand and said, "We must write the script as soon as possible."
"OK."
As soon as Liu Xiang left Wu Hai's office, his expression became extremely ferocious.
hehe.
It seems that I haven't criticized Zhang Cheng enough.
Liu Xiang sneered in his heart.
Originally, the discussion on screenwriting was very enjoyable and everyone was quite harmonious, but as soon as Liu Xiang came in, everyone became quiet instantly.
Yu Xiaoshu could clearly feel that Zhang Cheng's body had become stiff.
"Meeting."
Liu Xiang walked to the center of the conference table next door.
The others all sat down at the table.
"Zhang Cheng, have you written the script I asked you to write?"
Liu Xiang said to Zhang Cheng.
"Teacher Liu, I only wrote 3."
Zhang Cheng stood up hurriedly and walked in front of Liu Xiang with a dull expression.
“3??”
Liu Xiang slammed the table and said, "Why only three? Didn't I ask you to write six?"
Zhang Cheng shuddered: "Teacher Liu, it's mainly about time..."
Bang!
Bang! Bang!
At this time, Liu Xiang slammed the table again. He slammed the table and asked Zhang Cheng: "Say it again?"
Other screenwriters turned a blind eye to this.
Liu Xiang's repeated slamming of the table made Zhang Cheng tremble even more, and he even began to stutter when he spoke.
"I want to give you some face. I also want to help the younger generation. Why don't I say anything about other people? Why do I only say you?"
Liu Xiang slammed the table and shouted angrily: "Tell me yourself, are you a waste???"
"I, I, I am trash, I am trash."
Zhang Cheng seemed to be completely unable to breathe, and just kept repeating: "I am a waste, I am a waste."
Yu Xiaoshu's heart moved.
He understood why Zhang Cheng suddenly became like this.
And it seems that Liu Xiang really understands the ins and outs of this.
Quite professional.
"That's about enough."
Yu Xiaoshu stood up directly, and then helped Zhang Cheng up under Liu Xiang's stunned gaze: "What's the matter? You have to remember that no one can call us trash, because only trash will think others are trash."
"What did you say???"
Liu Xiang looked at Yu Xiaoshu angrily and said, "How dare you, a loser, call me a loser?"
"Look, you've confessed yourself."
Yu Xiaoshu slammed the table so hard that Liu Xiang shuddered: "Haha, is it fun?"
