Pokémon's Lord of Fear

The number of likes for this answer continued to soar. At the same time, Code, who was processing the lists of the needy sent by some hospitals in the office, found that the phone outside kept ringing, and the numbers in the foundation account were slowly increasing.
Although this product placement will cause some controversy to the foundation, as fame brings controversy, it would be bad if there was no discussion. But after the discussion, at least some people are willing to donate to the foundation.
Although one person may not donate much, but if it accumulates, it can always help more people in the end.
"President, we may need to recruit people." A girl rushed into the office hurriedly with a stack of lists in her hand.
As the foundation became more famous, in addition to those caring people, there were also many more people asking for help. Code looked at the lists and information, as well as the fax machine that was working non-stop, and his face turned even paler.
"Be careful when recruiting people." Code put the spoon behind him into his pocket.
It doesn't even have time to play with the spoon now, what a sin.
You know, as an Alakazam, Code's favorite thing is to play with a spoon.
The next chapter will be posted later, I am working on typing it
Chapter 183: Try Your Best Knight
"Boss, the foundation needs people and money." The next morning, Teng Shu just came to the office and saw Code already standing in his office. Zoroark was looking at Code helplessly.
Teng Shu was stunned for a moment, but soon he knew what Code meant.
After all, Teng Shu knew about the popularity of the second episode of Sherlock Holmes yesterday. The ratings went up a bit, and now the Alliance TV station was very happy. They even contacted Teng Shu last night to congratulate him and mentioned the second season in a vague way.
But Teng Shu just laughed it off.
Teng Shu has not yet thought about the plot of the second season. Although it should only require taking some stories from "The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes", how to adapt it is also a difficult problem. At the same time, some of the plots of the second season of Sherlock Holmes are not suitable to be taken out.
Adapting the script is a troublesome task.
However, the popularity of the second episode also brought some popularity to the foundation he founded. At least it was no longer as unknown as before, so it was normal for Code to come and ask for money and people.
"I can give you money, but the salary won't be particularly high. It will be maintained at the league average at best. You employees have to figure it out on your own." Teng Shu set the tone directly.
Now the foundation is full of volunteers.
Volunteer worker.
These people do not need to receive any salary to work for the foundation, the foundation only needs to pay for some travel expenses. However, if the foundation wants to expand its recruitment, then formal employees will be indispensable.
Although there are many enthusiastic people and volunteers in the Pokémon world, only a few can devote all their time to work.
Besides, it’s impossible for Teng Shu to get things for free forever, right?
"This." Code was a little embarrassed. It was the first time that Teng Shu saw an embarrassed expression on a Hu Di's face.
"Salary is not a particular problem, but this employee..." Code was a little confused.
"Boss, Code has received many calls from job seekers from yesterday to today, and some people are willing to volunteer to help, but these people..." Zoroark spoke for Code and handed over a document.
Teng Shu glanced at the document and hesitated. He didn't really want to take it.
"Anyway, I don't care about recruiting." Teng Shu took the file but didn't open it. The weight alone was enough to give people a stomachache, and Teng Shu didn't want to open it and make himself suffer like Code.
He knew without even opening it that there must be good and bad people among these job applicants. There would certainly be kind-hearted people, but there would also be some with ulterior motives.
Charity, charity, some people are really doing charity, while others are just doing business.
Code's beard was pulled down, but he also knew that Teng Shu really didn't have any good solution for this kind of thing. Given the special nature of the work of the Welfare Foundation, it was good enough that Teng Shu could provide the salary. At least it could ensure the purity of their foundation.
How many people are willing to do charity work without receiving any salary? It is impossible for the foundation to rely on these people to maintain its operation, right?
Code left with a bitter face, and Zoroark followed him. After they walked out of Teng Shu's office, Zoroark poked his old friend's shoulder.
"Don't you have a special communication group in Alakazam? You can go there and ask." Zoroark expressed his opinion that most Pokémon are more pure, so it would be good to recruit them as employees, and there are also some Pokémon with psychic powers who are keen on charity.
Moreover, the abilities of psychic Pokémon are also very good. One Pokémon can be used as the equivalent of many people, which is still acceptable.
"I'll try." Code's eyes were obscure. Even among Pokémon, some had bad personalities, and this needed to be distinguished. But since he had become the president of the foundation and had seen the excitement and gratitude of those who were helped in the hospital, Code had no intention of backing down.
Compared to the leisurely but somewhat boring life in the Baocai Bureau, Code felt that what he was doing now was a career worth fighting for all his life.
"Boss." There was a knock on the door, and Monica poked her head in.
Teng Shu looked at Monica and raised an eyebrow.
Teng Shu naturally still remembered this new employee who had just joined his company, and the script he had written was quite interesting, so Teng Shu was quite optimistic about him.
"That question about the shooting." Monica walked in with a slightly red face.
Teng Shu doesn't have anything to do right now. Ghost Pictures is currently working on no other projects except Ada's Tom and Jerry, which is still on schedule.
After listening to it, Teng Shu finally understood what Monica was thinking.
"So, you feel that you are not used to being a director during this period, so you don't want to be a director?" Teng Shu looked at Monica, who nodded immediately.
As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement while experts watch the details. Although Monica had written some scripts before and worked in a film crew for a while, when she really sat in the director's chair, she found that this job was not as easy as she had imagined.
She felt dizzy and confused before the filming of "A Doll's House" even started.
"Then let you be the screenwriter. As for the director, I'll find one for you?" Teng Shu didn't care too much. For work like this, you can only know whether it is suitable for you after trying it out.
Since Monica felt that she was not qualified for the job of director, Teng Shu naturally had to replace her. This would save time, effort and cost.
Just like in anime or novels, it is not normal for a normal company to add burdens to others and make them the "go-getter knight". Some people are just not suitable for a job, and they won't do it well if you force them to do it.
Monica is a very good screenwriter, but this excellence is not brought to the position of director.
"That's great." Monica breathed a sigh of relief and left happily. Teng Shu didn't care.
However, finding a director for The Doll's House was on Teng Shu's agenda.
It is not difficult to find a director these days. After all, the profession of director is not always available.
If someone comes to me to take photos, I’ll do it. If no one comes, I’ll either stay at home and do nothing, or try to maintain some connections and find some work to do.
Unless they are famous directors, small directors basically have to follow the crew, work as assistant directors, do stagehand work, etc. to support themselves.
"But for a script like A Doll's House," Teng Shu planned to find a capable director, otherwise the good script would be wasted.
Chapter 184 The Bridge’s Lost Dream
These days, three-legged Pokémon may be hard to find, but there are still many people with two legs.
The profession of director seems high-sounding, but in fact, when Teng Shu began to learn about it, he discovered that in the Hoenn region alone, there are a lot of directors, some famous, some not, and some who debuted as directors by shooting micro-movies. There are more than 30,000 registered directors alone.
You have to know that this is only the Hoenn region. If it expands to the entire Alliance area, then the number may reach an even more terrifying level.
"Boss, these are the famous directors who have time available." Zoroak handed a list of names to Teng Shu. These were all directors who currently had no filming assignments and they all had time to direct a new movie.
Teng Shu took the list and flipped through it.
well.
Teng Shu couldn't recognize any of these so-called famous directors.
But this is normal. Among the more than 30,000 directors, there are some who are considered famous. There are also some directors who specialize in shooting commercials. Teng Shu even saw documentary directors and wedding directors.
God knows why there are special directors for weddings. The division of work these days is really weird.
When he turned to the middle, Teng Shu saw a name that he had a vague impression of.
A director who has directed two films with mediocre box office results, has a somewhat strange directing style and is regarded by the industry as a man who "should make art films."
The reason why Teng Shu had some impression of this person was because his directing style was very strange and unique, with a bit of postmodern art style - no one could understand it.
"Can you find his works?" Teng Shu pointed at the name and asked Zoroark. Zoroark looked at the list and his expression became subtle, but he still found the other party's works on a video website for Teng Shu.
"The Bridges of Madison County".
"?" Teng Shu slowly typed a question mark. Damn it, is this not a senior time traveler? But when Teng Shu clicked it with trepidation, he found out that he was wrong.
Although the name is also "The Bridges of Madison County", the plot is completely different. The addition of Pokémon makes the movie even more difficult to understand.
Teng Shu finished watching the movie at twice the speed. After watching it, Teng Shu understood why the industry would ask the other party to make art films. This man does have some ideas. His style can be seen from the language of the camera. There are all kinds of obscurities and irony. A good love movie was made like a humorous and satirical movie by him.
"It's okay, it's okay." Teng Shu breathed a sigh of relief. The name "The Bridges of Madison County" really shocked Teng Shu. You know, in his previous life, this work had mixed reviews, and it was the type that could be debated for hundreds of floors if it was brought out for discussion.
The story of The Bridges of Madison County is not complicated. To summarize it, an American married woman cheated on a man and was torn between love and family. In the end, she chose her family, but in her later years, she regretted it and even asked her children to scatter her ashes at the place where she and her lover had made their promise, instead of being buried with her husband.
The launch of this movie can be said to have caused a sensation in the world.
Although it is America, America at that time was not as crazy as it is later. Some people still adhered to traditional concepts of marriage, and things like extramarital affairs and betrayal of the family were also despised by many people. Of course, some people think that this movie is a great work.
Anyway, there are many different opinions, and it is a very, very strange work.
This movie also caused a surge in the divorce rate in the United States at that time. After watching the movie, many people decided to bravely pursue their own love. As for the result, no one knows.
This is also the reason why Teng Shu was very surprised when he saw this name.
"But this song is quite nice." Teng Shu touched his chin. He had no feelings for The Bridges of Madison County, but he still cared a lot about its song. To Teng Shu, that song was a classic, the kind that he could listen to over and over again.
However, the director's directing style is not suitable for filming A Doll's House. If his camera language is used in A Doll's House, it is bound to be a disaster. It will not achieve the effect of one plus one equals two, but instead will have the effect of one plus one being less than one.
Teng Shu also had some new ideas about this director. He felt that this director might try to direct a work like The Bridges of Madison County.
Although The Bridges of Madison County is a very, very peculiar work in Teng Shu's heart, it has indeed become a very alternative work in the film industry.
In its previous life, this work also earned more than 1995 million yuan at the box office. More than million yuan is not a small number, considering that it was at the time.
However, considering the controversy surrounding The Bridges of Madison County, Teng Shu did not release it. He planned to let the director direct another movie.
"Manchester by the Sea".
In Teng Shu's opinion, this movie is more suitable for this director.
Moreover, although Ghost Pictures is currently making great success in the horror film field, if it wants to prove its position in the film industry, it must also try other types of films.
It’s just that Teng Shu doesn’t have so much time to shoot different movies, so Teng Shu needs to expand his company’s team of directors so that those classic works from previous lives can shine in this world.
Manchester by the Sea is the stepping stone.
"Contact this director and ask him if he is willing to join our company." Teng Shu took out the list of directors of art films and placed it on the table beside him. At the same time, he said something to Zoroark, who nodded and recorded it.
Then Teng Shu flipped through the books again and soon found a director who had made several horror films and was good at narrative and atmosphere creation. In Teng Shu's opinion, this director was quite suitable to be the director of A Doll's House.
Of course, you also need to ask the other party whether they are willing to join.
Just when Zoroark was about to go down, it suddenly took out a mobile phone and looked at it, then Zoroark walked over quickly. Teng Shu looked at Zoroark in confusion, what happened?
"Boss, I just received news that the detective we commissioned has found an entrance to the Magma Team base." Zoroark said hurriedly, and Teng Shu couldn't sit still after hearing it.
The location of the Magma Team's base? Finally found, so it's time to deal with the Magma Team's affairs.
