After just a moment's wait, the general manager, senior director, and heads of various departments of Paramount came over.

Wang Lei ignored the hand extended by the senior director. According to previous understanding, this guy was a business expert sent by Martin to check and balance Shirley's dominance.

He was indeed very "successful" in doing this, and many funny bad movies were born in Paramount.

However, Wang Lei adhered to the belief that professional matters should be handed over to professionals, and the first thing he did next was to kick him out.

Hearing this personnel order, the other party's face was livid, but seeing the tall and strong Liu Hu behind Wang Lei, he wisely shut his mouth.

Watching the once arrogant senior director leave in disgrace, Paramount's employees dared not breathe, for fear that they would be liquidated.

However, Wang Lei seemed to understand the entire company's personnel structure very well, and pointed out a series of names:

"From today on, you can all leave, don't think about any compensation, you worms!"

Wang Lei cast his eyes on Shirley in the crowd again.

Shirley couldn't help but think of what her former boss Martin said, but she still took a step forward with composure:

"Mr. Wang Lei, you're new here, would you like me to introduce you to the company?"

Wang Lei nodded and readily agreed:

"Shirley, please lead the way."

When it comes to work, this strong woman immediately got into the state and talked about Paramount's past. If she didn't really love this company, it would be difficult to have such a deep insight.

"So what do you think Paramount should focus on in the future?"

"I hope to integrate all of Paramount's resources to produce one or two epic blockbusters, especially to explore our own series!"

"Okay, I will support you. If the budget is not enough, I will consider paying out of my own pocket."

Hearing this, Shirley was stunned. Does the new boss mean that she can continue to work?

"Boss, can I stay?"

Shirley looked into Wang Lei's eyes, full of expectations.

"Of course, Ms. Shirley, if you do well in the position of general manager, I will consider giving you a raise and promotion, and even give you some shares of Paramount."

History has proven that Shirley is a capable woman. Under her leadership, Paramount has ushered in a golden period. Wang Lei feels that even if he is replaced by a reborn person, he may not be able to do better than her.

Any of the six films taken out alone is a king bomb. Just participating in the production of Titanic made Paramount a lot of money.

With a huge cost of 200 million US dollars and a return of 1.8 billion US dollars, it took 380 million box office in mainland China in 98 years and dominated the charts for 12 years.

And Forrest Gump, which took 678 million US dollars in box office worldwide. It is not only a hit, but also has an amazing reputation.

It won the 67th Academy Award for Best Picture.

Two other masterpieces in film history, "The Shawshank Redemption" and "Pulp Fiction", were nominated for the best that year.

But for the audience, "Forrest Gump" is so good that it has crushed the latter two in terms of awards and box office.

"Thank you for your trust, I will definitely do my best!"

"Very good, there is one more thing, I hope you can prepare it immediately."

Shirley took out her notebook and pen very obediently.

"Marvel Comics is also one of my industries. I hope you can set up a new film and television department to focus on the adaptation of Marvel Comics.

For example: Spider-Man, Iron Man, and the Avengers..."

Shirley immediately understood what he meant:

"First make a personal movie of the hero, consciously integrate their worldview, and create the Avengers series of movies!"

Shirley's eyes lit up, and suddenly she felt that this new boss was an angel sent to save Paramount.

Paramount's ability to explore new series of movies is a weak one among the five majors. If it does not pay attention to the ability of sustainable development, Paramount will definitely be kicked out of the five majors in the fierce competition in the future.

"You can have a good chat with Stan Lee about the specific worldview. He is the creator of the Marvel worldview and your best screenwriter consultant."

Shirley is also full of expectations for this cooperation.

The new boss has money and resources, and she seems to see the hope of Paramount returning to the top of Hollywood.

"Also, I want to correct you on one point. Don't always focus on big productions. In fact, small-scale horror movies have more potential to develop into series of movies!

For example, the people at Paramount are playing with the ghost series."

"I just happen to have a few interesting ideas. Write them down with a pen and find a suitable screenwriter to write them into a script."

Shirley couldn't help but sigh that her new boss's thinking was so fast, and she hurriedly usedTake notes.

"A group of students plan to take a plane for vacation. The protagonist dreams that the plane crashes just after takeoff. Because of his crazy talk, his friends are kicked off the plane. Just when his friends are complaining about the protagonist, the plane blooms in the air..."

"The number of public security incidents in the United States remains high. In order to deal with criminal cases, the government has set April Fool's Day as a crime indulgence day. People can do whatever they want on this day, and all crimes are legal..."

Wang Lei mentioned several small-scale horror series in a row. Shirley naturally has a good eye for selecting films.

What surprised her was that the new boss actually had the talent of a horror film screenwriter. The few ideas he mentioned, if expanded by a professional screenwriter, would be a hit horror movie.

Although she felt that it was difficult to make big money with small productions, Shirley still promised:

"I will set up a new horror film studio, network a group of potential directors, and let them focus on small-scale horror films."

The communication with Wang Lei kept Shirley in high spirits and happy from the bottom of her heart, because the new boss would not talk about costs and profits, and would talk more about the film itself.

This is ten thousand times cuter than the previous boss Martin, who didn't know what a commercial film was at all, and generally listened to the opinions of the former director and ignored her suggestions.

It can be said that the appearance of Wang Lei made her full of confidence in this job.

"By the way, I have another unwelcome request."

Seeing Wang Lei's hesitation, Shirley felt something was wrong. Wouldn't this guy want to take advantage of the actress?

Aren't many bosses buying film and television companies just for this hobby?

She knew about Wang Lei's industry. He had his own entertainment companies in Hong Kong Island and Sakura Island. Wouldn't he want to change his taste?

"You can just say it, we have a film contract in hand, just name whoever you like."

Wang Lei was stunned for a moment, and said quickly:

"My requirement is that the Dragon people must appear in Paramount's movies with a positive image, and must show the friendly side of the Dragon people..."

Wang Lei said a lot, and Shirley's notebook was full of it.

She was smart and probably understood the intention of the new boss, who wanted to use movies to subtly change the stereotype of the Dragon people in the beautiful country.

In fact, Shirley would do the same without Wang Lei saying it.

What a joke, Wang Lei is the only shareholder of Paramount and the biggest funder of their company. She can't even curry favor with him.

Just when Shirley was about to leave, Wang Lei suddenly asked:

"Shirley, can you really date anyone you want?"

Shirley couldn't help but cover her face:

"Boss, you are still thinking about this."

"I'm just asking."
