I started my career in a country that does not value talent. I wrote several plays, short films, and local songs over time, and since 2007, I have been in this field, waiting for an offer from a film company in my country. I even turned down offers from America. In return, I faced mockery, was ridiculed because of my state, and was called crazy and poor. But this did not prevent me from persevering and not giving up. I used that madness to create crazy characters that are now studied in international psychology schools. But they do not know that this "madman" wrote four movies and TV shows in one month. They do not know that this "madman" can write a 10-episode series in a single week. They do not know that since 2007 until now, this "madman" has successfully written over a million scripts. They do not know that this "madman" succeeded in turning several video games into movies when the game company itself couldn’t do it. He challenged himself and found a way to bring Imhotep back from the underworld in "The Mummy" when the scriptwriter failed to do so. So, praise the Lord for the blessings you have, because if I receive a job offer from a film company, I will dominate the film industry and prove to the world why I deserve the title of "The King of Writers" and "The Unstoppable Machine." more…
