Chapter Twenty-Seven: Interaction
In the spacious lecture hall, there are 60 former employees of the company, a group of people sit on red chairs, whispering, some people look anxious, some people show calm faces, and some people are expressionless, but they are actually a little nervous.
Today's all-staff meeting of the company will decide whether their jobs will be left or not, and if the company boss lays off employees, they will face the possibility of losing their jobs.
Click!
The lecture hall was opened, and a group of people looked at the people who walked in.
Dimes walked in first, followed by Town, the new manager they all knew, and his eyes were staring at the people who walked in behind him.
Lester walked in under the gaze of a large group of people, and some of the people sitting in the seats looked surprised, but they didn't think of him as the boss, they just thought that someone's son was coming with him, and their eyes were still fixed on the back of the door.
Behind him, Emmanuel walked in, and some people looked at Emmanuel with puzzled eyes, and the slightly chubby young man made them look a little familiar.
Later, Fields and four others walked in, some of them secretly guessing who was their new boss.
I saw a few people on the podium and sat down one after another, Leicester stood in front of the lecture machine under the surprised gaze of 60 people, and some people let out an exclamation of wow.
He's so young!
Some people were a little incredulous that their new boss was a teenager, and they were a little worried about whether Leicester would be able to be a film and television company, and their faces were full of worry.
"I think everyone must be surprised by the young age of the boss and wonder if the company is laying off employees. ”
Lester stood in front of the lecture machine, took in the looks of the 60 employees below, and said with a confident smile on his face:
The 60 employees looked at Lester in silence to see what he could say, and some of them became nervous and worried.
Seeing the employees below listening to him quietly, Lester propped his hands on the stage, held the microphone with one hand and said: "First, let me explain first, the company will not lay off employees, work in whatever position you work in, there will be no layoffs for the time being, as long as you do a good job, you can also be promoted and raised!"
A group of people were overjoyed when they heard that there was no need to lay off employees, and some people even breathed a sigh of relief, they would not face the problem of unemployment without facing layoffs, and a small number of people heard that there was no need to lay off employees, without much surprise, and continued to listen to Lester's next speech!
Everyone may have just thought, how can the new boss be a teenager, he should go home to nurse, stay in his mother's arms, just like a bad joke: the old director who is about to retire, he saw his grandson kicking in his daughter-in-law's arms and not eating milk, so he pretended to be straight and said to his grandson: "You are not good at breastfeeding, I have to eat." The daughter-in-law was very upset when she heard this, so she told her husband that her husband was shameless and wanted to eat her milk. The old director's son quit, and he found his mother and said that his father was not good and wanted to eat his daughter-in-law's milk. The old lady was furious. She angrily found her daughter-in-law and said, "Your man has eaten my milk for several years, and I haven't said anything.
Lester turned on the self-deprecating ridicule mode, took out the funny jokes of later generations from his mind out of context, gestured with his hands, and said in a role reversal for the three people;
Ha ha!
A group of people in the audience couldn't help but burst into laughter, and there was a warm applause, even Emmanuel and a few others sitting on the podium couldn't help but smile.
Peter Bennedek and Marty Bauer, as well as the two leading artists, flashed a look of surprise in their eyes, and Lester's joke invisibly brought the staff closer to Lester, and there was less estrangement, which could not be described as a means.
"Do you know this Mr. Emmanuel?
Lester pointed to Emmanuel, who was seated on the podium, and said;
The 60 employees looked at Emmanuel who was seated, and some people who were familiar with Emmanuel saw this, and they began to look for familiar figures in their minds.
Seeing that Lester made everyone's eyes shift to him, he raised his hands and made a helpless movement.
"I know he's the Lester Lore agent reported in the newspapers a dozen days ago: Emmanuel!
An exclamation echoed in the quiet lecture hall around him, and the dark-skinned young man who shouted finished speaking, only then did he remember that his voice was too loud, and he swallowed his saliva, his red eyes moving.
The surrounding employees did not care about the young man's loudness, but were shocked by the meaning of his words, and after careful observation, they found that the Emmanuel who was sitting was the Emmanuel reported by the newspaper ten days ago, but the newspaper has been reporting that the 20th Century Fox was acquired by Rupert Murdoch, the president of News Corporation, and the Emmanuel report was suppressed, which caused everyone to surprise Emmanuel and did not recognize him.
Seeing that everyone showed Lester's needs very well, he introduced himself and said: "Everyone is not mistaken, he is Emmanuel, that is, my Lester Lorey's publishing agent, and your boss is the author of the "Twilight" series and the unpopular "The True Story of Ahgan"!
Wow!
After Lester finished speaking, the audience was boiling, and there were fans of the "Twilight" series, standing up excitedly, if it weren't for the company's all-staff meeting, maybe they would have run up to hug Lester, and all the staff were a little unbelievable that the author, who is very popular now, would become their boss, which made the staff fans of the "Twilight" series have a dreamlike feeling.
Leicester ignored the boiling staff below, and said solemnly as he looked at the lecture machine, his voice echoing through the loudspeaker; Remember, you are the staff of our film and television company, a team, and you have a plan for the future of our film and television company, just like the "Twilight" series and "The True Story of Ah Gan" that I wrote are the IPs that our company is going to make movies in the future. ”
The words of assurance are much better than the previous words, which makes the staff who remained suspicious of Leicester look at Lester with anticipation.
"Okay, everyone is going about their business, and that's the end of the speech. ”
Eliminating everyone's doubts and estrangement, Lester picked up the water next to him and drank it, moistened his dry throat, and ended the conversation;
Bang Bang Bang!
A group of people got up and applauded Leicester's wonderful speech and encouragement, and after the applause, 60 employees walked out of the lecture hall in an orderly manner.
After the speech, Lester took two leading artists, Peter Bennedek and Marty Bauer, to appreciate the decoration style of the office building, followed by Emmanuel and Fields, and in front of Dimes and Townreid, and the group walked from the first floor to the fourth floor.
There were no big-name stars, no celebrity giants, and Leicester's film and television company opened in this way under the watchful eyes of four guests.
