The current person in charge is a smooth guy, and the people below him have begun to show their true nature. This is in line with the character of North Americans. , 'open and free'. Since the Chinese boss came, or one of the bosses came, their person in charge has changed a lot and become serious. He will only show his true nature when he goes out to socialize. , the people below also follow the same example, this is the rule of survival in the workplace.

There is news from Hollywood that Lucasfilm does not agree to sell the copyright, but it has not said that it is final. If investment is needed, we can accept investment.

When Li Bu heard the news, Peter was very angry, but Li Bu waved his hand and told him not to be angry. He had had such psychological expectations beforehand, so he didn't care.

"I'll leave for Hollywood tomorrow. Let someone book a plane ticket and send someone to go there with me. There won't be any misunderstandings."

"I feel relieved when the boss takes action. I believe you will definitely give Pacific Entertainment a good start." His Chinese is still very good, and he is a master of Hong Kong.

Hu Zhi'an learned that the boss was going to Hollywood. In the past few days, this small team checked the fund's accounts. There were no problems. They were bored. Now they heard that the boss was going to Hollywood, and they knew that the boss had started to take action.

……

Pacific Entertainment is located in North Hollywood, a three-story building. When Li Bu arrived, everyone inside came out to greet his new manager. The staff were informed before Li Bu arrived that if the new manager The manager can fire anyone he is dissatisfied with, which makes them nervous.

Americans are very superstitious. This is a fact. This is a free country with freedom of belief. There are many magical religions here, such as Tom Cruise.

These people behind the scenes who messed up a big production, no one believed in their abilities and thought that they would also mess up the next movie. They were only qualified to make small-budget movies.

Pacific Entertainment Company was newly hung on the outer wall of the small building. Li Bu looked at the people who were smiling at him, nodded slightly, and walked in expressionlessly. There were more than 20 people in this company. Although there were not many people, it was still a movie. The producer is old.

In the conference room, Li Bu called these people in and held a meeting, which was also the project kick-off meeting.

Li Bu looked at the people in the audience who lacked energy and was a little unhappy, but he also knew that these people had experienced a failure and were a little discouraged, which was normal. He looked at the people on the stage, clapped his hands, and attracted These people paid attention, and then said: "Hey guys, look at you now, you really look like a group of cowards, which is disappointing. Pacific Entertainment acquired you because they saw your value, but you are like a group of losers. It’s ridiculous.”

A few people in the group below were angry, but Li Bu didn't care about the mood of these people and continued to talk to himself.

"I came here today to lead you to success, not to work with a group of idiots." Li Bu saw that they were a little angry, and Li Bu continued: "If you are not convinced, you can leave, and the human resources department can handle his resignation. "

Several people got up and left directly. The person in charge of personnel in Hu Zhi'an's team immediately went up to hand over the situation.

"Well, since you're here to stay, you have to work hard. I hope you won't bring your emotions to work. If you are not convinced, then prove it to me. This place does not support idlers. Of course, your talents will be rewarded. Deserved reward.”

"Now you guys introduce yourselves, I need to make arrangements."

"I am the production director of the production department, Roger. I have 12 years of experience. Of course, it is a small-budget film."

"I'm John, seven years' experience, lighting department."

"I'm Jen, makeup department, nine years of experience."

……

"Okay, we have a preliminary understanding of each other. My name is Li Bu. You can call me Li, or Abu. I am a screenwriter and novelist. The "Sacrifice and Killing" is my work. I heard that it has become a bestseller. Book rankings.”

"Now I have a movie and I need your help. I hope you won't be disappointed. It depends on you whether you will rise again or be a loser for the rest of your life." "Our company has just been established and we need a film to let Hollywood know. We are here Okay. The producer will stay, and the others will leave."

……

"Roger, let's not talk about the previous failures. This is a script I wrote. You can start preparations, calculate the costs, and then give me a report. I don't want this movie to be messed up again." Li Bu said A script was pushed in front of Rogge.Rogge flipped through the script, "Youth Again", which was a comedy film. This was his first impression. He estimated that the cost of this film should not be high and it was a small-budget film.I secretly calculated in my heart that the comedy film would not lose money. If it was well shot, it would still make money. In the future, the TV station would broadcast it and there would still be money to recover.

From Rogge's introduction, we can know that he is an experienced producer, and he quickly estimated that there was no problem with this movie and it would not make a loss.After closing the script, he said to Li Bu: "Li, this is a good script. I think we will succeed."

Li Bu nodded and said to him: "Actors, especially young actors, don't look for expensive ones. We are a small-budget film, do you understand? We will place a casting advertisement at that time. The budget will be made as soon as possible."

Li Bu rented a villa area near North Hollywood, and the team was arranged in a small villa nearby. According to the custom here, Li Bu held a party at his home. Americans are all party animals, but he is Chinese. It is still rare to live in a white community. Li Bu invited these neighbors. In his own words, love comes or not. This party was organized by Roger, and the producer's organizational skills were not used. explain.

On that day, all the neighbors who lived nearby came here. They mainly heard that Li Bu was a best-selling author or a screenwriter. They wanted to see what was special about this Chinese man and whether he knew Kung Fu. A few years after Bruce Lee passed away, here white people’s impression of Chinese people has changed.

The host of the party this time was Rogge. He often held parties at home and was very good at it. At the party, he introduced Li Bu to the neighbors who were also curious about his works. At the party, Li Bu introduced his novel to I took out "Sacrificial Killing", and a neighbor actually bought this book. Li Bu was impressed. When he learned that he was the author of this novel, Abu, he became even more enthusiastic. Rogge knew that Li Buzhen published it in North America. After reading a novel, and a best-selling one at that, I am in awe. Yesterday I thought the boss was bragging.

The party was a success and the neighbors recognized Li Bu. Having a best-selling author as a neighbor was something he could brag about.
