After a series of calls in the morning, Duan Jia has a deeper understanding of the word "boss".

He is the hardest and most tired person in the company.

You can't be lazy, you can't complain, the performance of the entire company is on his shoulders.

Helpless, who told him to want to make money so much?

But after Lan Lang introduced the specific arrangement of the meeting to him, he couldn't help nodding, admiring Director Ge.

Airport restaurant.

Director Ge bought a round-trip ticket, and rushed to the restaurant as soon as he landed. After the three-hour meeting, he took a plane back to the shooting base.

Moreover, Duan Jia was not the only one who met him.

The staff of the film crew who stayed in Kyoto, as well as other partners, will discuss with him the content of the next stage of work in this short three hours.

What a ruthless person to move the "meeting room" directly to the airport restaurant!

Soon, Duan Jia rushed to the airport, and as soon as he entered the restaurant, he heard a girl's voice.

"Boss Lan, this way!"

The one who spoke was a tightly wrapped girl with a ponytail and a huge backpack.

He was waving at Lan Lang.

Seeing this, Lan Lang whispered to Duan Jia first. "Her name is Mao Mao, and she is a student of Director Ge."

From the looks of it, Director Ge's plane hasn't arrived yet.

The girl named Mao Mao had already piled up the documents on the table, and next to them were two laptops, which were already turned on.

She should be very familiar with this working mode.

As soon as they approached, Lan Lang stood between the two and introduced:

"This is Director Ge's student and his assistant, Maomao."

"This is our boss, Duan Jia."

But just when Duan Jia stretched out her hand, she hurriedly turned around and took out a book with a white cover from her bag, and handed it to him, her eyes glowed, and she said excitedly:

"Hi, can I have an autograph?"

This book was bound by herself, and the content in it is exactly the novel that Duan Jia will adapt, "Open the Door with the Left Hand".

Lan Lang's boss is an illustrator.

Paintings, she couldn't afford them.

But fortunately, illustrators are also masters of literature.

A manuscript does not need much money.

She begged the teacher to attend this meeting just to get Duan Jia's signature.

Similarly, a smile appeared on Duan Jia's face. This was the first time someone asked him for an autograph.

He readily accepted the manuscript.

The enthusiasm of the fans is indeed not easy to resist.

At the same time, after handing Duan Jia a pen, Maomao explained:
"Mr. Lan, Teacher's plane is delayed, and it will take about 10 minutes."

"Assistant Jia is already at the exit, we just wait here."

In this regard, she has no good way.

But she knew that Teacher Ge valued the illustrator very much, otherwise, she wouldn't fly back during the intense reshooting stage.

Duan Jia didn't care about these.

The delay of the plane is not something that can be changed by manpower.

At this moment, he was sitting on the chair, thinking hard about another matter, what should he write in the manuscript?
It's not good to sign a single name.

I didn't know this Mao Mao before.

Encourage, praise, celebrate working with her teacher?

For a while, I couldn't make up my mind.

Seeing him keep shaking the pen but not writing a single stroke, Lan Lang sighed, the boss is really not suitable for publicity and publicity.

She asked for Duan Jia.

"Maomao, what do you want our boss to write to you?"

Straightforwardly, it's not a big deal.

The boss thinks too much.

But Maomao on the opposite side also hesitated, thought for a long time, and finally replied:

"Casual!"

As long as it is signed by Duan Jia, she likes it.

It turned out that she couldn't make up her mind, Duan Jia stopped being entangled, and wrote a few words, chicken soup for the soul.

"If you don't forget your original intention, you will always be there."

It is mutual encouragement.

With the intention of making a lot of money, I hope this meeting will go well.

But it is not easy to realize this wish.

He just finished writing, but Mao Mao stood up in another direction, and shouted:

"Teacher Xu, this way."

That was another master that Director Ge wanted to meet, Xu Yi.

It was also the film director who wanted to read the script first after communicating with Lan Lang.

Not long after director Xu Yi took his seat, he began to look at Duan Jia next to him, which was different from what she expected.

An art master spanning the two fields of fine arts and literature.

There is no melancholic temperament on the body, clear eyes, and the appearance has been modified, but it cannot conceal the inner tenacity and self-confidence.

Young and full of energy.

She was still trying to analyze it, but Duan Jia spoke first.

"Mr. Xu, I heard that you want to read my script first."

"Sorry, I haven't had time to prepare yet."

"However, can you tell me what are the problems of directly adapting the novel into a screenplay?"

From the moment he knew that Director Xu wanted to read the script, he knew that she must have something dissatisfied with the novel, which may be the plot, characters or the connotation that the story wants to express.

Otherwise, she would not emphasize that she decided to direct after reading the script.

She didn't expect Duan Jia to be so direct.

Maybe it's youthful.

After a moment of hesitation, she explained:
"Duan Jia, I'm a screenwriter."

"Your novel is indeed wonderful and full of depth. I also believe that once it is published, it will definitely resonate with millions of readers."

"But moviegoers and fiction readers are different."

"It's only two hours long, and most viewers won't watch it again."

"They seldom dig into the details, explore the metaphors behind them, and pay attention to the social problems revealed."

"I don't understand, and I don't want to delve into it."

"If I put your novel on the big screen, it would be a waste."

While explaining, she was also recalling the specific content of the novel.

Great!
Although the story is very simple, it is a few young people working hard in the modern city.

But the logic is very strong, and the human nature is well grasped.

And in terms of character creation, hidden labels are very cleverly added.

At first glance, it is confusing, but once you start digging, it is a bottomless abyss.

It is hard to imagine that the author of that novel is actually this 20-year-old boy in front of him.

She really wanted to cooperate with Duan Jia.

But the reality is here, if the audience can't understand it, the box office will definitely be affected.

She is a director and likes good literary works, but she also needs to consider the market to protect the sponsor's income.

It was difficult for Duan Jia to accept such an answer.

His novels could not be adapted into movies because they were too esoteric and the audience would not buy them.

Immediately afterwards, he asked again:

"Mr. Xu, what do you mean, this novel of mine has no possibility of being filmed?"

If he wants to reduce the difficulty of watching the movie, it means that he needs to split the story structure of the entire novel, change the way of expression, and even delete the plot.

In that case, it's another story entirely.

At this time, Director Xu smiled, if there was no possibility of filming, she would not have come here.

replied:
"That's why I came to you. It would be a pity to give up such a popular book."
