Recently, Duqi has been mainly staying in Los Angeles. Watching the progress of the project of Fanxing Manor, in order to speed up the progress, Duqi hired a group of Chinese to complete many non-technical tasks. Compared with the locals' resistance to overtime work and inefficiency, the Chinese are much more efficient, and Duqi has promised a batch of bonuses for this.

Todd, who was busy in Japan, has rushed back and spent hundreds of millions of dollars. Shengshi Cinema successfully owned a total of 67 cinemas in several major cities in Japan, with the number lower than expected. In fact, due to the limited funds, the Japanese have more people and less land, and the current land price is much higher than the United States. After the square agreement, due to the exchange rate and the problem of fund concentration, the land price has risen like a sudden change. Most cinemas are now redecorating.

But no matter what, Shengshi Cinema finally completed its preliminary layout in Japan. After returning to the United States, Todd got a half-month vacation. He went to Hawaii for a trip. After returning, Duqi handed over the job of finding a gunman to him.

That day, he handed the documents in his hand to Duqi and said, "Some time ago, you asked me to send a recruitment notice to recruit professional gunmen. Ten people submitted their resumes. I screened them. These are the resumes of three people who meet the requirements."

Duqi took it and looked it briefly, and said, "Yes, hand over their resumes to Eva and arrange for them to interview in the studio tomorrow morning."

In order to manage his own copyright, Duqi specially established a Duqi copyright management studio, "Song of Ice and Fire", the unlisted "Diablo", and "Terminator" are now under the name of the studio. The studio now has only a few staff members, and Eva is the head of the studio.

The gunmen in Duches's photo are all under forty years old. They have published novels in newspapers and magazines before. One of them is a screenwriter who is a low-level Hollywood screenwriter, and they are all experienced people.

Eva soon contacted the three people and the interview was scheduled for tomorrow morning.

"Mr. Bill Rod, sit here and wait a moment." Eva signaled the bench near the door and said to a half-super capable man: "I will call you when you are."

Bill Rhodes looked at the studio and it was not big, with only three offices in total. However, its owner, Duches, is now a famous American magic writer. "Song of Ice and Fire" is very successful, so he did not underestimate it.

"Can you pass the interview?" Bill Rod murmured in his heart: "If you don't succeed, you can only go home and ask for help from your parents."

After graduating from college, there is no reason not to be independent anymore, and parents work hard. It is unfair to ask them to help and help with student loans. It is just that living in Los Angeles is more difficult than imagined.

He studied in the School of Literature, but the university can only be considered a third-rate. Even if the grades are pretty good, the people who come from an ordinary family and do not have a master's degree, and lack work experience, most of them should start with interns.

After graduation, Bill Rhodes found jobs in several tabloids, worked as intern editors or journalists, and his income was too low and he could only maintain a basic life and could not repay his student loans.

Later, I heard from a friend that I have a great fortune in being a screenwriter in Hollywood. If a creative idea is favored by a Hollywood company, it can be sold for 100,000 US dollars or even more. As long as you have talent, it is definitely not difficult to sell it. Not only will it have copyright fees when you sell a script, but it can also be paid from the box office of the movie after it is made into a movie. The screenwriter union also protects the rights of the screenwriter.

The pressure of student loans and expectations for a bright future made him come from Boston to Los Angeles, and then he found that what his friends said was a dream.

The new screenwriter ignored him and finally applied for a screenwriter team, but he could only help others. Not to mention signing the script, he had never even seen the screenwriter of the script before.

After three months in Hollywood, he only found two jobs, one earned $200 a week, and wrote a conversation between college girls in a script; the other earned $240 a week, and wrote a scene of college life.

There are only two jobs, in the words of his partner at work, he is so lucky that it is normal for a new screenwriter to not find a job for half a year.

The minimum salary regulations of the screenwriter's union, but he asked, the screenwriter's union has a high entry threshold. People like him may not be able to join in for another two years. Fortunately, they saved some royalties in college, otherwise they would not be able to hold on in the past three months.

But recently his good luck seems to have been used up and he has not found a job for more than a month.

"Mr. Bill Rhodes, please come with me."

Hearing Eva's words, Bill Rhode quickly stood up and followed him.

Then, a man, who was nearly forty, left the office in front, walked towards him, nodded to Eva, and Bill Rod looked at him deliberately, and vaguely smelled the smell of his companionship.

The other party should be an applicant, but he seemed to have a bad face. He seemed to have failed the interview, so he couldn't help but feel a little happy.

Being a gunman is not a good job in itself. If it weren't for a desperate situation, most people wouldn't be willing to take this step. However, this job is urgently needed by Bill Rhodes. He couldn't find a job and could only go back to his hometown to seek help from his parents. If he found a job, he could still stay.

When he entered the office, Bill Rhode saw the person sitting behind the desk. Even though he had read related reports before, he was still surprised by the other party's youth and envious of the other party. The novel he wrote was valued by a large publisher like Random House and was published. It was much more successful than himself. Compared with the person in front of him, his previous experience of writing articles for newspapers and magazines is not worth mentioning.

Seeing the person coming in, Duqi pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Please sit."

The man in front of me is about twenty-five or six years old. He dresses up very simply. He is a cheap black suit and well-maintained old leather shoes. He is obviously tall about 1.75 meters.

"Mr. Bill Rod." Duch nodded to him and introduced himself: "I am Duchy, the owner of Duchy Studio."

After saying that, Duqi didn't talk nonsense and asked directly: "Have you been a screenwriter?"

"Yes." Bill Rhodes said the truth: "I worked in two screenwriter groups, and I had no right to sign. The head of the group assigned writing tasks, and then I completed them as required."

Duqi said: "Besides having experience as a screenwriter, do you have any writing experience?"

Bill Rod said: "In fact, writing has always been my hobby. During my college years, I published more than 20 articles in school magazines, most of which were novels, and two short stories were published in the science fiction magazine "Similar".

He took out a copy of the bound together from his handbag and placed it on his desk: "This is an article I've published."

In fact, it was these articles that allowed Bill Rhode to get his first two jobs. Good luck did not come for no reason. This little advantage made him more lucky than other new screenwriters, but that was all.
