Chapter 294 Director Jiang, Is Your Movie in Need of Investment?

“Jin Yong also took it from a local legend in Foshan, where someone mistakenly ate snails for geese, and the ancestral temple cut open the belly of a child to clear his name, but the specific time and characters are unknown.” said another.

"There are many such cases, and there were also cases in earlier times. For example, when the puppet emperor Shi Jingtang was the governor of Hedong, in order to create a good image for himself, he tried cases in a friendly way. Later, people saw that he was a good official, and they came to him for trivial matters. After there were too many cases, he became impatient, but he couldn't say it clearly.

One day, a civilian woman sued a soldier's horse for stealing her black beans. Shi Jingtang had an idea and said to cut open the horse's belly to see.

When the civilian woman heard that it was such a big deal, she was not happy and said to withdraw the lawsuit. The soldier was not happy either, because the horse was precious.

But Shi Jingtang said that if this happened, both of them would die.

He ordered the horse's belly to be cut open, and found only hay.

Then he killed the civilian woman in public for false accusation, and confiscated her property to compensate the soldier's horse.

Since then, almost no one dared to come to complain."

Zou Jingzhi also told such a story.

Yang Ling listened with relish, and saw how much knowledge he had learned.

"Shi Jingtang is still my fellow villager." Yang Lingyue shook his head with a smile.

At this point, today's script discussion ended. There was no dinner party. What nonsense, if we do this every day, we would have gathered a long time ago.

"It's too difficult to prove your innocence." Wei Xiao said thoughtfully.

"Because innocence is not important, what the person who wronged you wants is important." Yang Lingyue echoed.

"This is why you can't wake up a person who pretends to sleep." A screenwriter also said.

"Director Yang's summary is very exquisite." Shi Hang said with a smile, his two strands of beard shaking.

"Well, tell us more, say whatever you want." Jiang Wen also became interested.

"Well, let's take rumors as an example. Nowadays, we are being attacked by foreign media. Those who make up stories are not believing in those opinions, but choosing opinions, even if they are fake at first glance.

The first person to spread these rumors is just bad. In some industries where reputation is very important, this is the most labor-saving way to achieve a certain goal.

Because the people who believe these rumors are stupid and bad, or just stupid, and they are the majority."

Yang Lingyue paused and said so.

"This is elitist thinking." An older screenwriter shook his head.

"We don't like to label people here. Okay, let's go. We have something to talk about." Jiang Wen raised his eyebrows and said.

After sending everyone away, Yang Lingyue followed Jiang Wen into the office. He lowered his head and smelled a dead smell. The clothes had to be washed separately.

After sitting down, Yang Lingyue talked about "The Sound of the Wind" and took out the original work and the script that was half completed from his bag.

Jiang Wen did not express his opinion, but turned a few pages and said, "Let me take a look first."

Yang Lingyue's heart sank when he saw this. Why was this guy not happy at all? He could only say, "In a group drama, Wang Zhiwen, Tony Leung, and Mr. Zhou have the most scenes with you."

Jiang Wen scratched his head and said, "Look, I misunderstood you. You stayed there for more than two hours in the afternoon. I have to take a good look at it. As long as it's suitable, it's fine."

"Hehe, well, I've prepared a backup plan." Yang Lingyue also laughed.

Jiang Wen grinned and said indifferently, "Tell me."

"Director Jiang, how much investment is lacking for the film you are preparing now, I will make up for it." Yang Lingyue said seriously.

"I only made a little money from my first film, and you dare to invest in this, awesome!" Jiang Wen gave a thumbs up.

"I don't lack the money to invest in movies, I just lack good movies, and your previous movies have failed. Make a good movie that can make money." Yang Lingyue pretended, but he was very sincere.

"Haha, you have to talk to Lao Ma about this. You also said that this is a commercial narrative film. If I can't make money just by following others, then I really can't make a profitable movie." Jiang Wen said confidently.

"Okay, I'll tell him later. I made so much money for him, so we have to reciprocate, haha. That's it for now, let's leave first and talk on the phone."

"Okay, I won't be polite." Jiang Wen waved his hand.

On the way back, Yang Lingyue was thinking about "proving his innocence", which of course had nothing to do with himself, but was related to the Olympics.

According to statistics from later generations, negative news accounted for 90% of all reports by Western media from this month to the eve of the opening ceremony of the Olympics.

Yang Lingyue didn't want to get involved in this matter, and of course it was not his turn to get involved. No one or any organization had approached him.

Even if there was, he didn't have the ability.

The entire team of Lao Mouzi is composed of top-notch people, except for the music director, because Lao Mouzi himself couldn't decide. He wanted to use Tan Dun at first, and it was announced, but later, he became the one who wrote the theme song.

Yang Ling wanted to make up for the shortcomings and be a whistleblower.
