Seventy, Liu Yao's commission
Xiao Qiao's treatment has skyrocketed in the company since this day...... It's impossible.
The most asked question by Xiao Qiao by female colleagues is: What is it like to be in love with a male god? Will two people hold little hands? Will they kiss? Will the male god's kiss be cold or abnormally warm? Will the male god last - until the topic began to deviate, Xiao Qiao couldn't stand it anymore and ran away with his face flushed and covered his ears.
But what she had expected in her mind didn't happen, and she was relieved.
After the winter solstice, the days are getting cooler day by day, and as the last leaf of the decades-old sycamore downstairs of the company falls, pedestrians on the street have put on heavy down jackets.
When Xiao Qiao came back from lunch, he found that the atmosphere of the company had become a little different, especially Liu Nan. The little fat man rubbed his hands together and shuttled back and forth in the aisle of the workstation that seemed a little narrow to him, looking like he didn't belong.
Xiao Qiao dragged his chair forward, making more space for Liu Nan, and asked curiously, "What's the matter?" The last time you were so busy, you still saw your goddess bravely chasing love. ”
Liu Nan waited for her to ask, and her eyebrows fluttered: "Do you know who came just now?"
"Who?"
"My goddess's Bole, screenwriter Liu! She gave a lecture at the university a few days ago, I didn't have time to go to work, I thought I wouldn't see it, but I didn't expect to come to our company. ”
"Screenwriter Liu?"
"Yes, Liu Yao, the screenwriter who wrote the script for "Rainbow Summer". ”
Xiao Qiao let out an "oh" and glanced at the closed office door not far away, and the next second, the door opened. Zhou Guangjin opened the door and poked his head out: "Xiao Qiao, bring a notebook and come in to make meeting minutes." ”
Xiao Qiao responded crisply, knocking on the corners of her colleagues for more than a month, and she was finally about to usher in her new job.
In Zhou Guangjin's hospitality office, Liu Yao was sitting on the sofa, she came, but her heart didn't come.
She is the same as Xiao Qiao imagined, the famous screenwriter Liu is only in his early thirties, wearing a very expensive tweed coat at first glance, with a long straight black hairstyle and fashionable air bangs, but it does not look pure, but it can only dilute the sharpness brought by her angular face.
She has a strong literary and artistic tone, and she has made three phone calls after sitting in Zhou Guangjin's office for ten minutes, all of which are talking to people with different characters about the progress of the new movie, what "character movement", what "montage", Xiao Qiao is in a fog.
At the same time as she put down the phone, Liu Nan came in, put the hot tea in front of Liu Yao, took out the prepared paper and pen, and asked happily: "Screenwriter Liu, I like your "Rainbow Summer" very much, can you sign it for me?"
Liu Yao looked at the hot tea in front of her, didn't stretch out her hand, looked at Liu Nan's face along the teacup, and frowned: "I'm sorry, I came here to do something serious - Mr. Zhou, can you let unrelated people wait out?"
The last sentence was said to Zhou Guangjin.
Liu Nan's expression was a little embarrassed, he retracted his hand, and hurriedly bowed before Zhou Guangjin spoke: "I'm sorry, screenwriter Liu, I ...... I didn't mean to bother, that, I'll go out now. ”
Zhou Guangjin raised his hand and motioned for Liu Nan to wait.
He looked at Liu Yao, still with that faint look, but his chin was not obviously raised at an arrogant angle.
"If there is something serious, then you should know that customers need to make an appointment to come to Fiber Optic Media. It's just that I'm friends with Xiyue, and as you can see, our staff likes you very much, so I'm sitting here now. ”
Xiao Qiao glanced at Zhou Guangjin suspiciously.
This is the real nonsense with open eyes, when does Optical Fiber Media need to make an appointment, the building property came in the morning, and the property lady also had a verbal dispute with Zhou Guangjin about the water and electricity problem this month......
But I have to admit that seeing Liu Yao's somewhat ugly face, Xiao Qiao was still very happy.
"Originally, I overpassed, Mr. Zhou, I have other work outside, so I will go out first. ”
Liu Nan finished the round and went out busily, and before leaving, he gave Xiao Qiao a sharp look, meaning to let her pull her boyfriend, their boss, looks personable, and the whole top version of the workplace elite actually has a stinky and hard temper, and he has a bit of a mixed temperament when he gets angry.
Liu Yao didn't care what the employees here thought of her.
"Actually, I wasn't going to look for you. ”
Liu Yao's words made Xiao Qiao frown deeply, and before she could say anything, she saw the man next to her "rub" and stand up.
"In that case, then I won't send it. ”
Xiao Qiao: "?"
Keeping in mind Liu Nan's gaze, Xiao Qiao hurriedly grabbed Zhou Guangjin and hinted wildly: People will take Qiao, why are you still serious?
Liu Yao's face darkened visibly, and she was forced to keep silent, and the atmosphere was so embarrassing that you could use your toes to buckle out of a three-bedroom and a living room, but fortunately, Xiyue came in at this time.
"Sorry, I've just finished the announcement, I'm late. ”
Xiyue was brought in by Liu Nan, and after thanking her, seeing the stagnant atmosphere in the office, Xiyue asked strangely: "What's the matter? Is this case too difficult?
Zhou Guangjin spread his hands, and the corners of his mouth twitched indistinctly.
"You've lifted me, it's been forty minutes since Screenwriter Liu came in, and I don't even know what she's coming for. ”
Hearing this, Xiyue glanced at Liu Yao suspiciously: "Aren't you in a hurry for me to introduce you to my public relations company, why don't you talk about it first now that you see it?" Let me tell you, the strength of online public relations, I only recognize optical fiber media, and Xinghui is all scum." ”
Liu Yao smiled far-fetchedly and put the mobile phone that she had been holding in her hand back in her bag.
"I'm sorry, I'm not targeting your company, I just don't have a good impression of all PR agencies, it's because Xiyue said you are credible, I want to work with you. ”
Zhou Guangjin nodded: "Compared with some public relations companies in the industry, we are indeed more credible. ”
Liu Yao's expression warmed up slightly, picked up the teacup in front of her, and took a sip.
"As you may have heard, I recently had a new script that was about to be made into a movie...... That's what I'm here for today. ”
"I'm sorry. Zhou Guangjin shook his head, "Can you make it clearer." ”
Xiao Qiao glanced at Zhou Guangjin secretly, the customer is God! God is enough to slap once, how can he still chase him?
Drag Liu Nan's blessing, Xiao Qiao has an impression of the new movie: "Is it "Snow Winter"? I heard that this movie is a sister chapter of "Rainbow Summer", focusing on male violence, it is your hard work for more than a year, is there something wrong?"
Liu Yao, who was talking eloquently on the phone before, suddenly stood up at this moment, and Xiyue couldn't hold back and sit upright: "Forget it, help people to the end, or let me say it - in fact, Liu Yao's new script was plagiarized, but the other party is now biting back, saying that Liu Yao is infringing, and demanding that all processes related to this movie be terminated." ”
Zhou Guangjin asked: "This is an unpublished script work, how can it be plagiarized?"
"It's me who is too gullible to be credulous. Liu Yao said bitterly, "She is my script assistant, her name is Sun Xiaotu, I single-handedly took her to debut, and I taught her the style, outline, and lines of "Snow Winter" by hand, and I was not wary of her." I didn't expect it to become a story of a farmer and a snake. ”
Zhou Guangjin asked again: "Isn't there a cooperation agreement between you?"
"No, it's my fault, we only made a verbal agreement. ”
Zhou Guangjin shook his head when he heard this: "Then I can't just listen to your side of the story, the verbal agreement is too unconvincing, I will now go to the Internet and say that you plagiarized the assistant, and some people believe it." ”
Due to shame, Liu Yao blushed: "How could I plagiarize her? Since my debut, I have actually written a lot of scripts, but she has no talent, she has drifted north for so many years, and she has achieved nothing, if I hadn't asked her to be my assistant, she would have returned to her hometown a long time ago, and what qualifications do she have to mix in the film and television industry." ”
"But the only thing that is popular is your debut work "Rainbow Summer". ”
This sentence choked Liu Yao, Xiao Qiao was impressed by Zhou Guangjin, why didn't he see it earlier, this person was still sharp-tongued.
Liu Yao was speechless for a long time, so angry that she almost wanted to leave, Xiyue hurriedly gave her a smooth breath, and kept giving Zhou Guangjin a look.
Seeing that the three women at the scene were about to sit still, Zhou Guangjin said leisurely: "I'm just telling the truth, you have a gap for anger, it's better to think about it, how can you prove that this script belongs to you? ”
Xiyue next to him also persuaded: "Don't be angry, I know Zhou Guangjin, he has a bad mouth, but he is still reliable, don't be angry." ”
Liu Yao finally returned to normal, and in the face of Zhou Guangjin's question, she hesitated for some reason, but said: "Because it was based on what happened to my friends around me." ”
"Rainbow Summer seems to be based on real events, and you seem to enjoy finding inspiration from around you. ”
Liu Yao replied in a stiff tone: "I don't think it's time to chat, I don't want to answer your question." ”
Zhou Guangjin nodded: "Then let's talk about what you should answer - as you can see, we are an online public relations company, and the problem you are facing should go to a lawyer to fight a lawsuit." Since you are a friend of Xiyue, I can introduce you to a lawyer who is very good at intellectual property for free. ”
His friends were angry with each other, and Xiyue had to reconcile: "What's going on with the two of you today, why are you arguing again,"
Liu Yao got up from the chair with a "rub": "I'll tell you." I won't tell you this...... There is no way to go to court. ”
"She was right next to me during the interview, and we did everything from the outline to the biography to the script, and she had so much evidence to prove it, and if I had to go to court, it might not be good for me. And the investors of the film can't wait that long for the lawsuit. ”
"When a matter is too complicated to legally determine right and wrong, the public thinks it's right, it's right, the public thinks it's wrong, it's wrong, that's why I'm here for you. I hope that you can use public opinion pressure to make Sun Xiaotu give up the relevant rights and interests of claiming this script. ”
Liu Yao may have been a screenwriter for a long time, and even her speech is full of language art, which is plausible, which makes Xiao Qiao a little confused.
She glanced at Zhou Guangjin in confusion, who folded his legs and nodded shallowly: "It's useless to talk more, so let's go back and sort out all the relevant information about "Snow Winter" and give us a copy, and then decide whether to take it over after we weigh it." ”
