Full prompt
“The Dragon Turns Over: Ex Can't Reach” Total Duration: 45 seconds Core Plot Points: Workplace Humiliation + Identity Reversal + Universal Shock + House Cleaning
Act 1: The End of the Road (The Betrayal)
Time: [00:00 - 00:15] Scene: Crowded and dull open-plan office area.
[00:00-00:05] Camera Movement:
(Keep consistent) Subjective POV handheld shake. A cardboard box is violently pushed against the chest.
[00:05-00:10] Action and Close-up: Ex-girlfriend (Su Qian) is holding the arm of the new manager (Manager Wang). She claps her hands disdainfully, as if shaking off dust.
[00:10-00:15] Dialogue and Micro-expressions: Su Qian (meanly): “Li Ze, accept your fate. Manager Wang earns half a million a year, and you? You’ll sit in this cubicle until you die and still won't afford my bag. We were colleagues, now get out yourself.” Micro-expressions: Manager Wang greasily shoves Li Ze's shoulder. Li Ze lowers his head, fists clenched tightly, veins bulging.
Act 2: The Return of the King (The Return)
Time: [00:15 - 00:30] Scene: Company main conference room, all employees lined up, waiting for the new boss.
[00:15-00:20] Camera Movement:
The conference room door is violently slammed open by bodyguards. The camera gives a slow-motion shot (Slow Motion) of Li Ze walking in, wearing a bespoke suit and radiating powerful aura.
[00:20-00:25] Key Change: Crowd Reaction
The camera quickly scans the ordinary employees on both sides of the conference table:
Someone is about to applaud the welcome, sees it's Li Ze, their hand freezes mid-air, mouth wide open into an “O” shape.
Two male colleagues who used to mock Li Ze exchange terrified glances, quickly lower their heads pretending to look at documents, trembling.
The whispering instantly disappears, the whole room is dead silent, only the sound of Li Ze's leather shoes on the floor.
[00:25-00:30] Action and Close-up: Su Qian was originally tidying her hair, preparing to fawn, but the moment she sees Li Ze, her pupils contract violently, and she instinctively steps back, hitting a chair.
Li Ze ignores everyone's gaze, walks straight to the main seat, pulls out the chair, and sits down calmly. Li Ze (coldly, surveying the room): “What, don't you recognize me? The entire former management team is dismissed. The surname of this company is now—Li.”
Act 3: The Moment of Reckoning (The Firing)
Time: [00:30 - 00:45] Scene: The situation reverses, complete reckoning.
[00:30-00:35] Action and Manager Wang's Reaction: Su Qian rushes towards the conference table in panic, trying to explain. Key Change: Manager Wang's Reaction
The camera focuses on Manager Wang. He was originally standing arrogantly in the deputy position, but now his legs give way, and he collapses directly onto the floor. He trembles trying to grab the water cup on the table to cover his embarrassment, but his hand shakes too much, the cup overturns with a “pa” sound, spilling water all over his pants, looking utterly miserable.
[00:35-00:40] Dialogue and Climax: Su Qian (crying): “A-Ze! Listen to me, I did that to motivate you to improve! You are the only one in my heart!”
Li Ze doesn't even look her in the eye, but disgustedly uses two fingers to pick up the 'Termination Notice' from the table and lightly flicks it.
[00:40-00:45] Ending and Dialogue:
The papers scatter like snowflakes over Su Qian and the collapsed Manager Wang. Li Ze stands up, straightens his cuff, his eyes icy cold. Li Ze (word by word):
“I bought this company for a deep clean. My territory has no room for trash.”
Action:
After speaking, Li Ze walks away quickly without looking at the floor. Visual Treatment:
The camera focuses on Li Ze's resolute back, the only background sound is the heavy closing of the door—“BANG!” (Screen goes black, no subtitles, ends with white space)
