Chapter 300
Wu Junxiao was almost so angry that he burst into smoke. Just when he was about to go to Tang Songhe to argue, his father called.
Wu Junxiao calmed down for a moment and went up to the rooftop with his mobile phone. When the call was hung up because no one answered, he called his dad back.
Wu Hongji came up and asked: "Xiaoxiao, has your name been mentioned?"
Wu Junxiao felt aggrieved for a moment and told his father the whole story: "I'm sure It’s because I didn’t want to sell the script to him, so he took advantage of it and deliberately showed me what ‘Sheng Hai has a lot of ideas’ means.”
"Don't be afraid," Wu Hongji comforted him, "You have kept the original manuscript of the script, right?"
"I have kept it," Wu Junxiao said, "including the chat records with the screenwriters of the crew. "Yes."
"Yes," Wu Hongji said decisively, "Don't worry, dad will contact the lawyer now. It's your thing, and we have to get it back."
Said. Finally, he warned him again: "Don't be impulsive, wait for news from dad."
After hanging up the phone, Wu Junxiao calmed down completely, and actually had some leisure, so he went to the coffee shop downstairs to order something. Some food and drink. After eating and drinking, I went back to my work station to fish.
Tang Songhe had been sitting in the office waiting for him to make trouble, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't even see anyone.
When he was about to get off work, he deliberately passed by Wu Junxiao's workstation and found that the child was actually playing games.
Wu Junxiao noticed someone around him, looked up, and greeted Tang Songhe calmly.
Tara Matsuwa gave him a meaningful look and left.
Wu Junxiao sneered and packed up his things, getting ready to get off work. He had already thought about where to have dinner.
There was a Japanese restaurant on the commercial street. Wu Junxiao asked for a small private room, ordered a bunch of things, and then leaned against the corner, waiting for his meal.
When the waiter came in, he was followed by an uninvited guest, Zou Zhuoming.
"Director Zou, what a coincidence." Wu Junxiao greeted, thinking that he was also here to eat. Passing by the door of his private room, he pretended to invite him, "Would you like to sit down and have something to eat together?"
Unexpectedly, Zou Zhuoming actually came in and sat down opposite.
His eyes looked back and forth between Wu Junxiao's face and the food on the table for a while. After the waiter left and closed the door, he got straight to the point: "You should watch the trailer of "The Nightmare" Are you here?”
Wu Junxiao picked up a piece of salmon sushi with chopsticks, dipped it in some mustard, and nodded while eating.
Zou Zhuoming smiled: "Then you have a really good attitude."
Wu Junxiao finished swallowing the food in his mouth and said: "Then what can I do? Is it possible that I want to be entertained in your Shenghai One cried, two made a fuss, and three hanged themselves at the gate. ?”
“You can’t say this nonsense,” Zou Zhuoming still smiled, “Tang Songhe is Tang Songhe, and what he does does not represent Sheng Hai.”
“What. What do you mean?" Wu Junxiao frowned and looked at him.
Zou Zhuoming asked him: "How much do you know about our film and television department?"
"Not much." Wu Junxiao replied, turned his head and asked, "This matter doesn't have anything to do with you, does it? Tang Songhe gave How much benefit will it bring to you?"
Zou Zhuoming didn't mean to avoid it at all, and made a gesture to push forward: "This matter is indeed related to me, and I even pushed him." "You..." Wu Junxiao suddenly leaned forward and glared at him angrily. Thinking of his father's words, he calmed down and sat back, "So what do you mean by helping now? Tang Songhe came over to persuade me to do this deal? "
Zou Zhuoming did not answer him, but told him about the situation in the film and television department.
Shenghai's film and television department seems to be one department, but it is actually two departments. One is in charge of IP adaptation, and the other is in charge of original scripts. The division of labor between the two parties is clear, and basically there is no conflict between the two.
This shared management model was implemented after the newcomer support plan five years ago and continues to this day.
Director Zou Zhuoming is in charge of IP adaptations, so when conflicts arise in the script of the "Nightmare" crew, he is the one to resolve them.
Wu Junxiao finished a piece of fried shrimp and said: "So when you invite Karamatsu over, you will have a community of interests. When he needs help, you will lend it to him without hesitation. A helping hand, right?"
"No, no." Zou Zhuoming shook his head. "This matter was not brought to me by Karasatsuwa, but by the director of the original company. He said that you made Teacher Tang, whom everyone respects, angry. He wanted to teach you a small lesson, so he asked me There are some tricks in the trailer, so that after you see it, you will take the initiative to go to Teacher Tang to apologize.”
Wu Junxiao paused while picking up the side dishes. He put down his chopsticks and looked at Zou Zhuoming, feeling that he understood.
It’s just a signature placed in the trailer. Even if the matter escalates, the producer can completely blame it on the post-production staff, saying that the post-production staff made a mistake and forgot to put Wu Junxiao’s name in it. Just apologize and make some changes and that's it. Therefore, even if you look into it carefully, it is not a big deal at all. The real intention is to beat Wu Junxiao, or at most disgust him.
Zou Zhuoming picked up the small teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a slow sip: "I think you should be a smart man."
Wu Junxiao was really amused: "They Is that stupid? "
Zou Zhuoming picked up the chopsticks and took away the last piece of sushi on the plate. He was really hungry. He had just finished get off work and had not even taken a breath when he was informed by the "detective" that Wu Junxiao was here. Here, he rushed over immediately.
He thought that a young and energetic person like Wu Junxiao would at least make some noise when encountering this kind of thing. However, for the whole day, he seemed to be heartless.
Zou Zhuoming guessed that he was either heartless or just a supporter, so there was no need to worry at all. But either way, he felt that he had found the right person.
After finishing the sushi and eating something else, the hunger in his stomach was finally relieved. Zou Zhuoming told Wu Junxiao a story.
The protagonist of the first story is similar to what he is currently experiencing. He is also a new screenwriter. Karamatsuga gave him the subject matter and ideas. After she finished writing, the script was set up and filming started, and she was waiting with great anticipation to join the team. However, What was waiting for him was the same contract as Wu Junxiao.
Wu Junxiao’s first reaction was: “Sue him!”
Zou Zhuoming said: "First, she has no money and cannot afford to file a lawsuit. Second, there is insufficient evidence."
"Why is there insufficient evidence?" Wu Junxiao did not understand the scripts and manuscripts he wrote. Ah, design, etc., including electronic archiving, doesn’t she have it? Or was it all stolen by Karamatsu?
Zou Zhuoming said: "Tang Songhe has all the so-called evidence you mentioned. It was the second time he did this, and his behavior was relatively conservative. The victim would appear from time to time during the script creation period. He would call him over for inspection, and he would sort out the victim’s creativity and design for each stage of the script, and write it down by hand.”
Later, as Karamatsu’s reputation grew, he became very bold and direct. Take it in hand and don't even bother to make false evidence. With Xia Hongzhou backing him up, the victim was unable to cause trouble in the company and had no way to appeal outside the company. Not only did he lose his script and money, he also lost his job.
More recently, there was a newcomer who wrote a family ethics script. He probably discovered this clue and after weighing the pros and cons, he directly plagiarized the novel of a streetwise author.
After the show was aired, the young author gradually discovered that the characters and plots in the show were very similar to his own novel, and they were almost identical later on. So I made my own color palette and asked for my opinion on WB.
This matter was naturally suppressed. Karamatsu spent money to limit the platform's traffic, and also found a lawyer to contact the small author privately and settled the matter with money. In the end, the author also issued an apology, saying that it was not plagiarism, it was a complete accident, it was just a collision of ideas, and he had wronged Tang Songhe indiscriminately.
After Wu Junxiao listened, he finally got the answer to his questions in the past two days: "Let me tell you, how could he, an industry giant, fall in love with a new work of mine. It turns out that apart from me, I am really talented. In addition, all his previous scripts were written by others!"
He looked at Zou Zhuoming: "So how did this idiot become a big sign of your Shenghai?"
