"Warm Light in the Palm" - Who Will Redeem the Entertainment Godmother (Fifteen...)
Just as clothes make the man and a saddle makes the horse, having a spacious and bright office gives you the confidence to recruit people.
Du Yanchen went back and actually resigned, joining Qiu Tianyi's team.
The office building was designed specifically for business use, with many independent partitions. Qiu Yi and He Xinxin shared an entire floor, which was very spacious, so they allocated her a separate accounting office.
Although we will hire other accountants in the future, there is only Du Yanchen for now, and she is very happy to have an office all to herself!
In my own office, with no one watching me, I can sneak off to fish for a while without anyone knowing, hehe.
Of course, in 6+6, it's okay to slack off openly; the company doesn't forbid slacking off.
Six Plus Six is a film and entertainment company with a different business model than other companies. It is extremely busy when it is busy and extremely idle when it is idle. So why do they let the employees sit at their seats and stare blankly when they are idle?
Do whatever you like, just don't completely neglect your duties. As long as you can't be found when something happens.
For jobs with special content, such as screenwriting and editing, a special attendance system is implemented.
The screenwriting department will assign one person to be on duty each week, as arranged by the department head. You can work from home the rest of the time as long as you can deliver the results. If you like the company computers and the company work environment, you are welcome to come to the company.
Of course, the supervisor has to come every workday. With great power comes great responsibility. Employees only get paid so little. If they don't want to come, they don't have to. You have to come. Even if you don't have to slack off at the company, you still have to.
Editing and production involve the core secrets of film and television companies and require more advanced equipment, so it still has to be done in the company.
Post-production is also the most important technical department of a film and television company. With more funding and more staff, when the schedule is tight, two shifts work in shifts to edit the film. We can't let one group of people take advantage of us and then exploit us to death.
When there are no editing tasks, just like with screenwriters, one person should stay on duty, and the others don't need to come.
As for the performers, there's no need for them to come. Just keep your phones on and notify us in advance if there are any filming plans. The actors should make time for the shoot, and we'll reserve an office as a dressing room and a dressing room for the actors.
In short, don't be too rigid. Don't keep people around when you don't need to. When you're not on duty, do whatever you want.
Therefore, even though the salary offered by 6+6 Film & Entertainment Media Co., Ltd. is not high, many recent college graduates still apply for the job.
There's no way around it; recent college graduates haven't accepted the corporate slave system yet. They can't stand the mental exploitation by their bosses even more than the low wages.
In 6+6, those who prefer a stable life can apply for accounting or administrative positions.
Those who prefer large blocks of free time can apply for editing, screenwriting, or acting positions.
Those who enjoy high-intensity, high-reward work can apply for a "sales" position, which involves attracting advertisers and negotiating contracts. The salary is based on a base salary plus commission, and if a deal is reached, profits are split proportionally.
There's a different model for everyone, and you get weekends off. The boss doesn't interfere in anything, and even hiring is handled by the administration.
The administrative staff was also an old classmate whom Qiu Yi recruited at a class reunion. After all, the company was just starting out and the division of functions was not yet so detailed, so the administrative department took on all the trivial matters.
In addition to recruitment, they are also responsible for the complex attendance and salary assessments of various departments, procurement of supplies, and inventory management of filming props.
These jobs don't seem to require much skill, but when put together, they can be overwhelming. So the administrative manager went to the boss to ask if she could hire some people for her.
Qiu Yi didn't care. If you're so capable, then go ahead and recruit. Anyway, I'm only paying that little salary.
Administrative Supervisor: ...
Can I apply to beat up my boss?
But administration is such a wronged department. Not only do they have to supervise attendance and set salaries, which gives them a bad reputation among employees, they also have to deal with the boss's stinginess and lack of ambition.
Out of consideration for being a primary school classmate and being the boss across from her, Han Tieying had tolerated Qiu Tianyi for a long time, but finally couldn't take it anymore: Boss, can you be normal for once? Try harder, stop playing on your phone, and go work hard to earn money and raise your salary!
Qiu Tianyi paused in her frantic gaming, turned to look at her: What are you doing, trying to control the boss?
Han Tieying was furious, caught in the middle, but she really worked so hard that she managed to recruit all the staff under those salary conditions.
Most of those attracted to this kind of company are recent college graduates.
When the older generation gains control of the discourse, they like to say that today's young people are really worse than the last, and they can't endure any hardship like they used to.
In fact, the most hardworking people are the newcomers. The veterans have been around for a few years and become quite shrewd. They're already considered morally upright if they don't take the fruits of the young people's labor, let alone endure hardship.
As a college student fresh out of university, I was indeed a bit naive.
But it is precisely because of this naivety that I believe that hard work will pay off, and that the company is my home. I believe that as long as I work hard for it like a family member, it will repay me like a family member.
The only thing lacking in 6+6 right now is the salary; the other benefits are very much in line with the aesthetics of young people, and the salary is not important to recent college graduates!
So, despite the company providing such favorable conditions for slacking off, the newly recruited employees did not slack off recklessly. Instead, they worked hard and studied diligently, hoping to quickly become proficient, achieve something, and prove themselves, while also preventing the company, with such favorable conditions, from going bankrupt.
In this atmosphere, the person most likely to slack off becomes the boss, and even the employees can't stand it anymore.
What are you doing?! Get some work done! If the company goes bankrupt, you'll have to pay for it!
Qiu Tianyi: ...
The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuchs are. Even she, the boss, isn't in a hurry, but a bunch of employees are getting anxious first.
Speechless, he turned back to playing his game: "What's the rush? The new production team has already started preparations, the script is all written, I'm just waiting for the actors."
Han Tieying looked at her suspiciously: "Have you decided what to film?"
Qiu Yi didn't pay attention at first, focusing on playing the game, but Han Tieying's words reminded her of something, and her mouth involuntarily stretched into a wider grin.
After holding back her laughter for a long time, she turned to Han Tieying and said, "What do you think about us making a children's play?"
Han Tieying: Hmm?
...
Sun Manli went home and flipped through the script that Qiu Tianyi had given her. She originally just wanted to take a casual look, but she kept flipping through the pages. When she finished, she looked up in shock and realized that it was actually a children's play!
At the beginning of the story, the female protagonist, Ouyang Tu, is a rather unreliable and unscrupulous lawyer who makes a living by swindling and cheating. Because she is so unreliable, her clients come to her door and smash her swindling den to pieces.
Ouyang Tu cunningly hid in the hidden door that had been modified long ago, observing the troublemakers through the eyes left behind. After they walked away, she climbed out of the hidden door, clapped her hands, and was about to feel smug when she turned around and saw a woman who looked very intimidating standing behind her, looking down at her.
Ouyang Tu slowly turned his head, stretched out his hand, and tried to climb back without making a sound.
The woman's furious roar shattered the roof: "If you don't pay your rent, get out!"
Then he took out a calculator, kept adding up the amount, and slapped the loss in front of her, saying only one word: "Pay up!"
When the landlord slammed the door shut, the messy room was left with only Ouyang Tu. The dim sunlight coming through the small window cast a slanted shadow on her, dividing her profile into two halves.
Ouyang Tu grinned, then squatted down helplessly to pick up the scattered documents from the floor, lamenting how uncivilized the landlord was.
As she moved, the pieces of paper on the ground became fewer and fewer, and something gradually began to emerge.
After all the papers were picked up, a complete black card with gold foil came into view.
The card was made of metal, exceptionally exquisite, and shimmering with iridescent light, seemingly possessing a special allure.
Ouyang Tu's expression changed instantly. She reached for the card, but the moment she touched it, the golden light on the card flickered strangely, as if it were about to flow into her body through her fingers.
After a violent gust of wind, Ouyang Tu fell to the ground. The card had turned into a regular metal invitation. When Ouyang Tu turned it over, there was only a pencil drawing of a little girl printed on it.
Ouyang Tu was completely confused when the doorbell rang.
Full of suspicion, I went to open the door, looked up, and saw no one.
Just as she was wondering if someone was playing a trick on her, a mechanical voice came from below: "I'm here."
Ouyang Tu's gaze slowly descended, only to realize that it wasn't that there was no one there, but rather that the person who came was too short to be seen.
The gaze settled on a little girl with bangs, long, straight black hair, and the exact same haircut as the one on the metal card. She looked up at her, and in the depths of her eyes, a flash of countless sophisticated instruments appeared.
Once the target is locked on, he speaks expressionlessly: "Lucky Earthling, congratulations on being chosen. From now on, I am your master."
puff--
Sun Manli burst out laughing. What kind of development is this?
In the story, Ouyang Tu also sneered instantly: "Little brat, stay away. I'm not the kind of person who respects the elderly and cares for the young."
But this little girl is clearly no ordinary person.
She is an incredibly advanced technological being from an alien planet. Because she was fighting against evil forces, she exhausted her energy and is unable to return to her home planet.
Evil forces are still hunting her down, so she needs to find an Earthling to impersonate her, and Ouyang Tu just happens to be the lucky one she chose.
Raising his head, he persisted: "You lowly Earthlings, feel honored."
Ouyang Tu: ...
You think you're so great?
The noble alien was handed over to the police by his arm, and a lost child was brought out from who-knows-where.
The police officer proceeded with his routine, bending down and gently asking the child who was being held up, "Little friend, where is your mother?"
The little girl glanced at the policewoman, then looked up at Ouyang Tu without saying a word.
police:……
Ouyang Tu: ...
Hey! What do you mean by that?!
The police also began to suspect, "Could this be your child...?"
Ouyang Tu was furious and tried all sorts of methods to prove that she was not his child, even using a paternity test. The result was: 100% similarity.
The police officers gaped in astonishment: "You gave birth to yourself?"
Ouyang Tu was furious. What do you mean I gave birth to myself? It clearly means your equipment is broken!
I did it again, and the similarity became 99%.
The police officer turned his head stiffly and looked at Ouyang Tu.
Why don't you think about it again? Is it really your child, and you don't know it, or you have amnesia?
Ouyang Tu was furious. How could she not know whether she had given birth or not? She was a woman!
No matter how Ouyang Tu tried to explain, no one believed her, and she could only inexplicably take the little girl home.
Ouyang Tu was determined to get rid of the child, but unexpectedly, while she was threatening the little girl, the group of people who had been causing her trouble returned.
This is bad. Caught off guard, Ouyang Tu grabbed the little girl and ran. The little girl looked at her expressionlessly and asked, "Why are you running?"
Ouyang Tu was furious: "Why are you still running! Can't you see for yourself?!"
Ouyang Tu ran for his life, when suddenly he felt a lightness under his armpit. He turned around and saw that the little girl was flying! She was flying!
The little girl who took flight instantly looked up, a storm raging around her, her eyes flashing with gears that turned into a dazzling silver. The men who had rushed over menacingly retreated instantly under the little girl's piercing gaze.
After driving them away, her silver eyes instantly switched to a completely black, pupil-less darkness. The person she was watching was about to get up when they forgot something and walked away in a daze, as if they had no idea why they had come.
Having resolved everything, the little girl switched her dark pupils back to normal human pupils and turned to look at Ouyang Tu, who had a dazed expression.
Why are you running?
Before long, Ouyang Tu threw away all the messy things in the house and tidied up a beautifully decorated children's room that was completely different from her pigsty.
He bowed and scraped as he ushered the little girl inside, kneeling and kowtowing three times and prostrating himself on the ground: "This humble servant respectfully welcomes the young lady!"
...
No matter how much Sun Manli thought about it, she never expected the story to turn out this way.
To be honest, if she dared to act in this kind of script, I can already imagine how others would laugh at her.
But as she turned the pages, she became more and more interested.
She doesn't accept roles in abstract dramas, but if a drama becomes abstract to a certain degree, she might actually consider taking one.
Sun Manli closed the script, hesitated for a long time, and finally made the phone call.
"I will go."
