"Miss Lindsay Bill, sit here and wait a moment."

Eva, the front desk of Shahai Entertainment, signaled to the bench near the door and said to a girl with long golden brown hair: "I will call you when you are."

Lindsay Bill put his tote bag first, sat down and looked at the company. The company was not big, with at most twenty people.

But she had heard of this Shahai Entertainment company, which had a super box office hit, "Human Purge Plan".

"Can you pass the interview?" Lindsay Bill 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, so it is unfair to ask them to help and help with student loans.

This road is more difficult than expected. Maybe you should go to a commercial company to be an intern after graduation, rather than just coming to Hollywood to be a screenwriter.

If there is a better choice, Lindsay Bill would not go this way.

The university you are studying is barely considered third-rate, and the business school is a rampant major. Even if you have good grades, come from an ordinary family and don’t have a master’s degree, and lack work experience, most people should start with interns.

Lindsay Bill found several jobs after graduation, but his income was too low and he could only maintain a basic life and could not repay his student loan.

A friend from the School of Literature was about to come to Hollywood to be a screenwriter. Lindsay Bill chatted with him and decided to come to Hollywood to make a living.

As that friend said, Hollywood has a great fortune in being a screenwriter. If a creative is favored by a Hollywood company, it can be sold for more than 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 you can also get a commission from the box office of the movie after it is made into a movie.

The screenwriter union also protects the rights and interests of the screenwriter.

The pressure of student loans and expectations for a bright future, she came from Pennsylvania to Los Angeles, and then found that what her friends talked about 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, she only found two jobs, one earned $220 a week, and wrote a conversation between college girls in a script; the other earned $300 a week, and wrote a scene of college life.

Just two jobs, in the words of her partner at work, she was so lucky!

It is normal for a new screenwriter to not find a job for half a year.

The minimum salary regulations for screenwriters union, but she asked, the screenwriters union has a high entry barrier, and people like her may not be able to join in after working for another two years.

Fortunately, I saved some royalties when I was in college, otherwise I would not be able to hold on in the past three months.

Recently, I have run out of good luck and haven't found a job for more than a month.

"Miss Lindsay Bill, please come with me."

Hearing the female front desk, Lindsay Bill quickly stood up and walked forward, sniffed in his hand, without any odor.

Then, a woman who was much older than her left the office in front, walked towards her, and nodded to the female front desk.

Lindsay Bill looked at her specially and vaguely smelled the smell of her fellow travelers.

Is this also an applicant? It seems that his face is not very good and he failed the interview?

It's OK to fail.

This job is really not very good, and it is also a gunman for people, but it is something Lindsay Bill urgently needs.

If you can't find a job, you can only go back to your hometown to seek help from your parents. If you find a job, you can still stay.

When he entered the office, Lindsay Bill was a little surprised to see the person sitting behind the desk. He was too young, and he seemed to be younger than himself, right?

Ronan pointed to the chair opposite and said, "Please sit."

Then, he couldn't help but look at the other party a little.

This woman should not be twenty-five years old, and she dressed up very simply, with a cheap black suit, half-old tight blue jeans, gray flat shoes with faded edges on the upper edge, and was measured to be about 1.65 meters tall, oval face, high nose bridge, and curly long blonde hair draped on both sides, revealing a delicate face with soft lines.

She has a slim figure, delicate face and delicate facial features. She is completely different from the traditional American big girl. This woman is more in line with the Eastern aesthetic.

Ronan was a little surprised. Is he here to apply for a Gunner or an actor?

"Miss Lindsay-Bill?" Ronan asked.

The woman began to feel a little cramped, quickly adjusted, laughed out two beautiful rabbit teeth, and said, "Yes, I'm Lindsay Bill."

Ronan nodded slightly to her and introduced herself: "I am Ronan Anderson, the president of Shahai Entertainment."

Lindsay Bill understands that this is the one who wants to hire the gunman.

Ronan didn't talk nonsense and asked directly: "Have you been a screenwriter?"

"Yes." Lindsay Bill said the truth: "I worked in two screenwriter groups, and I did not have the right to sign. The head of the group assigned the writing tasks, and then I completed them as required."

Ronan said strangely: "You graduated from business school. Why do you think of being a screenwriter?"

Lindsay Bill has also seen some scenes in Hollywood, and has stabilized his mind and said, "Writing is my personal hobby. During my college years, I published more than 20 articles in the school magazine, most of which were novels, and a short story was published in the science fiction magazine "Similar Styles".

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

It is also these articles that have enabled Lindsay Bill to get the first two jobs.

Ronan took it over and looked through it slowly. During this period, he looked at Lindsay Bill again. The woman's cramping at the beginning seemed to have disappeared.

"It is not easy to publish science fiction novels in "Similar Body", even short stories." Ronan knew the weight of "Similar Body" in science fiction literature: "Why didn't you stay on the East Coast to be a literary writer, but instead go to Hollywood?"

Many people who are engaged in literature look down on Hollywood screenwriters, especially those on the East Coast.

Hearing this question, Lindsay Bill immediately thought of the identity of the boss of Ronan Film Company, and with his own experience, he said: "No matter how elite writers on the East Coast look at Hollywood screenwriters with contempt, I believe that the world I have obtained is something that novelists, poets, and stage playwrights cannot imagine - no respected and serious writer can impress hundreds of millions of people at the same time, but movie screenwriters can!"

When Ronan heard this, he became interested in it. It was quite difficult for the screenwriter who could say such words.

The role of money is the most obvious reason why screenwriters still stay in Hollywood, but there are also people who want to play a role in a new medium because they originally lack the place to use it in the literary and theatrical circles.

Ronan also said: "The film screenwriter is never considered an artist. A screenwriter should be more accustomed to the role of an ordinary executor."

What he wants is a gunman.

Lindsay Bill had a deep understanding and said, "I understand."

Ronan said directly: "You do not have the right to sign this job, nor do you have any copyright."

Lindsay Bill certainly knew the concept of the Gunner: "I understand."

Ronan found the prepared paper and pen and put it in front of Lindsay Bill: "Using traditional Hollywood female character templates, such as Julia Roberts' "Pretty Beauty", using women as the first perspective, write an article about the male protagonist being obsessed with the female protagonist."

Lindsay Bill didn't say anything. This is the mainstream at present. There are actually many such novels on the market, and she also read them when she was in school.

Ronan said the second requirement: "Part 2. Write an independent heroine. This character should take the initiative. She does not need a man to save her, but to save her man."

"Okay, let's start." Ronan glanced at the time: "You have half an hour. There is no limit on the number of words and no specific background. Please give it to me after writing it."

Lindsay Bill didn't say much, moved forward and moved down the chair, got closer to the desk, picked up his pen and started thinking.

Ronan no longer cares about her for the time being and watches the premiere of "The God of Death".

Just twenty minutes later, Lindsay Bill put down his pen and said, "Mr. Anderson, I'm done."

Ronan took the paper she handed over and looked at it carefully. Mary Sue wrote pretty well.

The heroine of Mary Sue is a popular trend now, and the most typical one is Julia Roberts. Call girls can make the rich man love crazy, which is even more nonsense than Gray's fifty shadows.

Lindsay Bill's ability in this regard is not a problem.

The independent heroine is a bit awkward, probably due to the influence of the environment. There are very few truly independent female characters in this era in films and literary works.

However, overall, it's good.

Ronan was a little worried about the latter and said, "How do you think we can create an excellent female character?"

Lindsay Bill thought for a while and replied: "The character should be more friendly and has shortcomings. After all, perfection is a boring thing. Also, the character must have motivation, and this motivation is not just for men or children. A male screenwriter I worked with said that he could come up with 300 motivations for his male protagonist, but for the heroine, the only thing he could think of is that she was going to save the child."

"This subconscious bias must be eliminated." Lindsay Bill obviously has a lot of thought, "There is a kind of scene that must not appear. When the protagonist intends to terminate the nuclear weapon, he stops to save his girlfriend first. And it succeeds! Of course, they will also stop a nuclear bomb from exploded, but I always think: Doesn't your girlfriend want you to save this city? Or is she a selfish person? You still date her?"

Ronan read two short passages written by Lindsay Bill carefully and said, "Miss Bill, you are accepted."

Lindsay Bill breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where is my treatment?"

"A weekly salary of $1,000 is rewarded according to the time, and the bonus is calculated separately if published." Ronan didn't say it was false: "You need to write three novels according to the outline template I provided. After the first book is completed, your weekly salary will double, and so on."

He threw out the bait: "If you can impress me with these three books, I will hire you as the screenwriter of Shahai Entertainment, a screenwriter with the right to signify!"

"Really?" Lindsay Bill was moved.

Ronan smiled and said, "If you have an agent or lawyer, you will bring them over to sign the contract tomorrow. If not, I will be responsible for providing an endorsement lawyer."
