Pokémon's Lord of Fear

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 ability of psychic Pokémon is also very good. One Pokémon can be used by many people, which is still okay. "I'll try." Code's eyes were obscure. Even Pokémon have some bad personalities, which also need to be distinguished. However, since he has become the president of the foundation and has seen the excitement and gratitude of those who were helped in the hospital, Code has no intention of retreating.

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.
