Monday morning.
As soon as Li Dongyang entered the office, he heard his colleague at the desk behind him complaining.
What nonsense! Just because you have connections doesn't mean you can be so great. I spit on you.
What's going on?
My colleague who used to sit behind me was always very polite and well-mannered. Who provoked him to swear today?
Li Dongyang just looked back curiously without saying anything.
On Thursday night, the teacher said that the company's young lady was coming to inspect the work. Could it be related to this person?
But this is just speculation.
"Hey! What's wrong with you? You look like you've eaten shit."
"Nothing much, it's just that the manuscript I painstakingly wrote for half a month didn't get approved."
Another colleague looked surprised, "Didn't you only continue writing after you'd already passed? Why are you suddenly saying you've failed?"
"I heard that someone from head office came and said my manuscript wasn't good enough."
"They just swiped it out of my account."
It's unbelievable that something that's already been approved can be reposted so easily!
"What can we do? He's the company boss."
"Take it easy!"
"If it doesn't work out, we can just write it again."
I was planning to finish writing the script and have a good New Year.
After all that, he'd be in no mood to do anything.
From initial enthusiasm for work to now focusing solely on making money, young people sometimes have to bow to reality.
"I heard they're going to be processing a lot of drafts this time." The man tossed the draft in his hand onto the desk and plopped down on it.
It's clear that the dissatisfaction comes from the heart.
I was hoping to make a name for myself in front of my boss and see if I could get a chance to go to head office, but I ended up making a fool of myself.
Li Dongyang sat in his office chair tidying up his desk.
Although the company has a cleaning service, the desk was wiped after a week of not being here, but there was still some dust on the documents and computer.
Two colleagues complained from behind.
Of course, Li Dongyang would not get involved in such matters.
As the saying goes, too many people, too many opinions.
Li Dongyang tidied up his desk.
The two colleagues behind me started talking as soon as they entered the door.
Fortunately, despite all the complaining, the work still had to be done.
They weren't familiar with each other before, and Li Dongyang didn't have much interaction with them.
Ever since he created the hit film "Shangcheng," his colleagues in the office have been inviting him to participate, whether intentionally or unintentionally.
However, Li Dongyang had already gotten used to how these people used to look at him.
What is the workplace?
That's just reality.
Just as Li Dongyang finished tidying up the table, Zhang Wenbing's secretary came into the office and said he wanted to have a short meeting.
"General Manager Zhang said he's in the conference room and asked you to bring the script that was signed with Shangcheng."
Li Dongyang nodded: "Okay, I'll go right away."
As soon as Li Dongyang stood up, he was met with two pairs of eyes from behind.
After Li Dongyang left the office, the two started chatting again.
"Having connections and a background is really great. He's only been with the company for six months and he's already got a script that's been released. I heard the company gave him hundreds of thousands in commission."
"If the level were higher, it would be over a million."
This is something many recent graduates wouldn't even dare to dream of.
They've been with the company for several years, produced a lot of scripts, and released quite a few web series, but they're still not very successful.
It wouldn't be wrong to say that they got the job through connections.
But what they write is popular. We're all human, so why is there such a big difference?
"We're all human, but some people are born into a life where they never have to worry. It's infuriating to compare yourself to others."
"Let's focus on writing our script. Instead of complaining, we should think about how to improve ourselves."
Meeting room.
A few minutes later, the young lady from the head office arrived, accompanied by Li Songbai.
According to the company's seating arrangement, Li Dongyang sat in the far corner.
Li Dongyang originally thought that all the young ladies in the head office were like Lin Wan, who seemed sacred and unapproachable.
Judging from her clothes, she looks to be only 17 or 18 years old, and in a sweet style at that.
At that age, he probably hasn't even graduated from university yet.
It's unlikely that he'll be assigned to be the general manager of a branch office.
Qin Yuwei was tall and slender, wearing a Korean-style sweater and wide-leg pants, which was completely different from the mature and sophisticated style he had in mind.
It was the woman with black-rimmed glasses next to the girl who was the real culprit.
She appears refined on the surface, but is actually quite meticulous at heart.
Without any introduction, no one knew who this woman was.
Qin Yuwei entered the room and sat directly at the head of the office meeting room.
He sat down and then got off again, giving the seat directly to the woman next to him.
But she moved another chair and sat down next to the woman.
The company's young lady offered him her seat without hesitation?
Everyone: "??????"
I don't understand.
Who exactly is this woman?
Before Li Songbai could even introduce her, Qin Yuwei spoke first.
"Are you Li Dongyang?"
She noticed Li Dongyang sitting at the very back when she entered the room.
Apart from him, everyone in the meeting room was a middle-aged man around 40 years old, making him the only young man who was hard to miss.
Qin Yuwei hadn't even warmed her seat when she got up and walked towards Li Dongyang.
She didn't care what the higher-ups present thought.
"Hmm, I didn't expect you to not only write such good scripts, but also be so handsome."
“My dad said that your short drama brought billions of views to Chaofan.”
"At first I thought it was some kind of garbage plot, but after spending a day reading it, I realized that your script is really profound."
"Since you're handsome, are you interested in being my boyfriend?"
Li Dongyang: "??????"
