Chapter 155 Persuasion (34)
Guo Jingming has been in big trouble recently!
On the 18th of last month, an article on Sina Reading Channel, "Guo Jingming's new work "How Many Flowers Fall in Dreams" was accused of plagiarizing other people's works" attracted a lot of people's views...
The article is well-founded and compares "Inside and Outside the Circle" with "How Many Flowers Fall in Dreams"...
This thing is actually Guo Jingming’s own fault.
Not to speak for him. In fact, when "How Many Flowers Fall in Dreams" was first serialized in "Sprouting", some people questioned it, but the noise was not very loud...
At that time, someone asked Guo Jingming which writer was his favorite, and he also mentioned the name "Zhuang Yu"...
In fact, Guo believed that this was not plagiarism. He thought that he really liked that novel, so he re-wrote it according to the outline in it...
Of course, this is not a reason for plagiarism, plagiarism is plagiarism!
Zhuang Yu directly contacted the media and disclosed Guo Jingming’s plagiarism.
Then, the most disgusting thing is the publisher of "How many flowers fall in dreams", they published an article in the media titled "Nine Questions about Zhuang Yu"...
Questioned Zhuang Yu: Since you said that Guo Jingming plagiarized your work, why didn't you sue Guo Jingming? Did you want to take the opportunity to promote yourself?
If you ask for a hammer, you will get a hammer, Zhuang Yu really sued!
Of course, litigating a lawsuit is a time-consuming matter. The lawsuit lasted until the verdict in 2005, and then Guo Jingming only apologized on the last day of 2020...
Tsk tsk…
The reason why entertainment reporters are pestering Shen Xudong is probably because Shen Xudong, Guo Jingming, and Han Han are all representative writers born in the 1980s!
However, after all, it is the premiere press conference of "Dragon Movie", and the theme must still be "Dragon Movie".
Shen Xudong actually asked him about Zhou Xiaowen, and Shen Xudong scratched his head: "I don't know much about it. I was mainly with Director Yu Min's team at that time... I didn't have much contact with Director Zhou..."
"Then do you think Zhang Jizhong, as a producer, has the right to interfere in the filming?"
"...I think the project of "Dragon", whether it is Jin Yong or the TV station, the main reason why everyone got together is because of Mr. Zhang Jizhong. The TV station trusts him and the actors trust him..."
To put it bluntly, "Tian Long Ba Bu" is the team of Zhang Jizhong, so it is right for him to have all the power!
Just like "Outstanding Citizen", everything was done by Director Chen. So whose movie is "Outstanding Citizen"?
Of course it’s Director Chen’s movie!
…
The main interview was with Hu Jun - the latter won the Best Actor Award for "Lan Yu" and the Hong Kong Film Golden Bauhinia Award for Best Actor...
"I was under a lot of pressure at the beginning. First, it was the first time I came into contact with a costume drama. Second, there were so many fans of Jin Yong, and everyone had a different understanding of Qiao Feng.
In order to try my best to meet everyone's requirements, I only grasp one point when acting: authenticity.
I didn't deliberately play Qiao Feng's hero and chivalry, because I think the most important thing is the true humanity and the process of going from ordinary to heroic. Although I have never learned martial arts, in order to pursue realistic effects, I did 80% of the fighting scenes in the play myself. "
Shen Xudong happened to be passing by, and Hu Jun added: "I want to thank screenwriter Shen. He told me a lot of Qiao Feng's characteristics that were not reflected in the previous version. For example, he is ruthless and arrogant. He is decisive in killing." , A person who enjoys vengeance is not a hero like Guo Jing..."
"Which one does Screenwriter Shen think is better between TVB's version of "Tian Lao Ba Bu" and yours?"
"...Me? I'm just a screenwriter, let's ask Producer Zhang!"
Shen Xudong waved his hand, indicating that he did not want to answer the question - Zhang Jizhong was standing next door...
"Let's chat, Xiao Shen. I also want to hear young people's opinions!"
"...In fact, the concept of TVB's version of "Tian Long Ba Bu" is relatively simple, which is the main theme of the confrontation between good and evil... Our version is closer to the righteousness of chivalry, and it is difficult to survive in troubled times... The Hong Kong version has a strong sense of immersion, but after watching this version, we have nothing but It has a soul-stirring feeling, and a little bit of nothingness...I think this is what "Dragon Movie" should feel like!"
"well said!"
Zhang Jizhong took over: "Actually, I also pay attention to the comments on the Internet. I thought that this time it would be a scolding, and I was prepared for it, but there was no scolding, but more praises. To my surprise, it shows that we It’s really not a bad job!”
"In addition, let's talk about the good news. "Dragon" started broadcasting in Taiwan on the 6th. On the first day of broadcast, it created the highest ratings of CTV in a year. As of yesterday, the ratings have rushed from 3.17 to 3.86. This drama has created a peak in Chinese-language ratings in Taiwan... I believe that the audience will be satisfied after it is broadcast by Zhejiang Channel."
…
Shen Xudong made an appointment with Aunt Liu...and Liu Yifei.
Something serious!
Advise her to take on "Legend of Sword and Fairy"...
"The character Zhao Ling'er is a descendant of Nuwa. He has a compassionate personality, is gentle and kind, smart and slender, and a little bit naughty and cute... This role is perfect for you!"
"What is "Legend of Sword and Fairy"? I've never heard of it!"
"...Don't you play games? "Legend of Sword and Fairy"..."
Shen Xudong talked about the plot of the game "Sword of Immortality", and then said: "This project is currently produced by Tang Ren, and the publisher is a Hong Kong company, targeting Southeast Asia..."
"Who is the director?"
"The director is Li Guoli...a director from TVB, who has filmed "Story Madness" and "Book of Swords"...very capable!"
"...Where's the male protagonist?"
"Still choosing..."
Speaking of this, Shen Xudong suddenly understood why Liu Yifei of the original time and space rejected "Sword of Immortal" several times...
Nonsense, after "Dragon", she was approached by a bunch of projects. She is a rising star in the absolute sense, and she ran to star in a series with all newcomers?
What if it fails?
It’s better to wait, since preparations for “The Condor” have already begun!
After thinking about it, Shen Xudong said: "There is a word called Intellectual property, or IP for short. Translated, it means intellectual property. In Hollywood, the word IP is very popular. Literary works, games, and animations that can be adapted into movies can be regarded as IP, such as "Harry Potter" and "Odd World"...these two were popular novels before the works...
Animation adaptations include Marvel's "X-Men", DC animation "Superman", "Batman"...
Game adaptation is also very popular around the world, and it is also a path that has been proven to work. "Tomb Raider" and "Resident Evil" are examples of globally successful game adaptation movies..."
"You mean "Sword of Immortality" can also be successful?"
"No," Shen Xudong shook his head: "What I mean is that the probability of success of "Sword and Fairy" is very high, and Zhao Linger, played by Yifei, is the favorite of more than 20 million players of the Fairy Sword game. As long as she is willing to star, I think there will be at least two Millions of game fans remember her!"
"...I want to discuss it with her... agent..."
What kind of agent is he? He is just his godfather!
Godfather Chen’s eyesight is just like that, he’s really not as good as Godfather Shen…
Shen Xudong nodded: "That's right...Producer Zhang will be filming "The Condor" soon, right?"
"Well, I heard that preparations are being made..."
Liu Yifei suddenly spoke and asked in a clear voice: "Shen Xudong, you said before that Wang Yuyan's background is crazy, what is Xiao Longnu's background?"
