I am the Entertainment Tycoon-Chapter 171 Fourth Phase’s Last Day

Theo descended the stairs to go to the garage after he bade goodbye to Aurora, who was going to school.

On the other hand, he had something to do at the Tokyo Studios.

Today was the day that the 300 candidates participating in the fourth phase of interviews would hand in their assignments.

And Theo and Ryoko would spend the day evaluating their projects because they had to release the results tomorrow.

Theo was looking forward to what these people would bring him.

After all, they were fighting for job positions essential for his studio to operate.

He hoped for all of them to show great skills so that he could hire them all.

A while later, Theo parked his car in the Tokyo Studios' parking lot.

He looked at the clock while he walked toward Ryoko's office.

[8:02 AM]

'Less than half an hour for them to hand over their projects.' He said inwardly.

Whilst Theo was walking leisurely to Ryoko's office, the candidates were hacking their brains out to deliver their projects before the deadline.

Each candidate was giving more than 100% of effort in this assignment.

They wanted to get the job of their dreams!

So, for the past two days, everyone was extremely focused on their own assignments.

And even if someone asked for help from anyone else, the other person would not be able to help.

Each of the 300 candidates had a unique test designed for them.

Even candidates who were making the test for the same department had different assignments.

For example, two people doing the test to get into the Background Design Department.

Even though their assignments were similar, they still could not help each other because their tests were still different.

Nora Wells was one of the candidates applying for the Editing Department.

After Ryoko's speech two days ago, she had even more determination to get a job in this studio.

Because this was a studio that she could feel that she would not be harassed in any way.

A place where she could work in her dream job without the fear of an abusive boss harassing her.

She could spread her winds and show all her capabilities!

When she looked at her assignment two days ago, she saw it was more difficult than she imagined.

She was given several scenes without any connection whatsoever, and she had to edit them into a video that showed unity and cohesion.

Even though the difficulty was in hell mode.

She was not intimidated, her eyes showed an unbreakable determination to deliver the best work she could.

Two days after receiving the assignment, Nora had reddened eyes and bags under her eyes as she looked without blinking at the computer screen.

She hadn't slept at all in the last two days.

And all the other 299 candidates were like her, they also hadn't rested for a single minute ever since receiving their assignments.

Nora was checking the final video for the 20th time for mistakes that she might have passed.

Aidan Davies was another candidate who was giving his all to get his dream job.

After he saw those racist people being banned and eliminated, he felt like a heavyweight was lifted from his chest.

He wanted to get into this company where he would not be discriminated against for being black!

Aidan was applying for a job in the Compositing Team.

This team was responsible for adding layers of images (drawing frames produced by the in-between and keyframe animators) to create a final image.

Aidan was looking at the final result he achieved after two days of work, he took a deep breath and sent the file to be evaluated.

He closed his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief.

He could not wait to know the result.

While Aidan sent his file before the deadline arrived, other people were still making last-minute readjustments in their projects.

Brianna was one of these people, she was applying for a job in the Art & Design Department as a Color Designer.

She received a message from Ryoko when the assignment started.

Ryoko told her that she would talk with her when the results of the fourth phase were released.

Ryoko didn't want to pass the impression that she favored Brianna, so she decided to talk with her after all tests were released.

Brianna understood her friend's intentions, so she was not upset about it.

Her priority was to get her dream job as a Color Designer!

After she got that, she could ask how Ryoko managed to get the job as the big boss of the studio.

Brianna was just one of the 20 other Ryoko's classmates who were able to get into the fourth phase.

And even though 5 of them were not able to get into the fourth phase, they were still able to get jobs as Keyframe Animators and Supervisor Animators.

While Brianna was racing against the time to deliver her project in time, Bruno had just finished inspecting his project with a satisfied face.

Two days ago he was ecstatic when he saw that his four friends whom he came to Elffire with also got into the fourth phase.

After the five friends hugged each other to celebrate, they each went to do their own assignments.

They had to grab this opportunity, and they could not afford to be distracted.

Even the twins Jiro and Joben could not afford to be distracted by each other.

Every one of the 300 candidates gave their blood and sweat to deliver the best work of their lives.

And when the clock hit 8:30 am, the Umbrella employees entered the working rooms to announce the ending of the assignment.

"Attention! The assignment is over! You can drop down your work! Tomorrow at 8 am the results will be released. You have until then to rest!" The employees announced to all the candidates.

The candidates heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that.

All of them were able to finish their assignments, now the only difficult thing was the wait.

This one day before getting their results would be agonizing for all of them.

But they all agreed on something else, they wanted to sleep!

All of them did not rest for a second for the last two days.

They needed a good sleep. ｆ𝓇𝘦ℯ𝙬𝑒𝐛n𝐨νe𝙡.c𝑜𝗺

Brianna met her college classmates as she left the building.

They greeted each other with tired but excited faces.

Then they started walking together to the hostel where they were staying at.

"Hey, Brianna! How did it go?" A tall boy asked.

"I had to make some changes at the end, but I'm confident!" She replied with a chuckle.

"Better than us then!"

"Yeah, we were just talking about how difficult our assignments were."

"I had to design the background of a hazed apocalypse!"

"Well, I had to edit pieces two animations of the third phase to make sense together."

"Wow! That's a difficult one!"

"I just hope we get this job." Someone said with a sigh.

"Yeah, how awesome would be to get these jobs?!" Another one dreamily said.

"Well, it wouldn't be more amazing than Ryoko getting the job as Head Director of this big studio."

"But that's obvious!"

"No one will ever compare to Ryoko-chan!" Brianna said suddenly with a proud smile.

She was too proud of her best friend for achieving her dream.

"Brianna-chan, you weren't even hired yet and you're already fawning over the boss?"

Brianna and the others laughed when they heard that.

"But now I'm serious. Ryoko-chan said to me that she will go out with us after the result of the fourth phase are released." Brianna declared when everyone stopped laughing.

"Oh great! I want to ask her a million questions!"

They continued talking happily as they walked to the hostel.

They were anxious about the results, but they could only wait.

But would they be able to get their dream jobs tomorrow?
