Chapter 348 The Leading Brother
Hou Hongliang found Li Chen on the grounds of the first draft of "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem".
Entering the office, Hou Hongliang caught a glimpse of a book "Zaju. Zhao Paner Fengyue Saves Fengchen" on Li Chen's desk, which was quite strange.
"Why are you still interested in this area? It's quite complex."
Li Chen laughed and sat across from Hou Hongliang: "The TV drama cake is getting bigger and bigger. Even ten noonday suns can’t finish it, so instead of sharing it with others, why don’t I have a part?”
Hou Hongliang was stunned for a moment, but he quickly realized: "You mean to change it into a TV series?"
"Yes, that's what you mean."
Hou Hongliang smiled: "Yes. I'm afraid it's for Yifei that I want you to do it yourself!"
"Could it be you!"
Hou Hongliang laughed and handed the script of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" to Li Chen. Followed by: "This is the first draft, written by the writer himself and our people."
Li Chen glanced at the catalog and the beginning, and sure enough it was still the Yongzheng period.
But there is nothing we can do about it.
The requirement for dynasty transplantation comes from the General Administration’s regulations that historical film and television dramas must not include fictitious eras.
So if the novel is to be turned into a film and television drama, it is necessary to choose a dynasty.
Select the Yongzheng period as the plot dynasty.
It is also because the original text of the novel contains poems and songs that span the entire historical period, as late as the Qing Dynasty.
Hou Hongliang made this clear to the author himself at the beginning.
"I'll take the time to take a look, and the shares will be handled as agreed before."
Li Chen knew the reason why Hou Hongliang came today.
Hearing what Li Chen said, Hou Hongliang felt reassured.
Although he has repurchased his shares, Li Chen is still the largest shareholder of Noon Sunshine.
It is also the largest investor in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
The news that Zhang Hanyun hurriedly appeared on the Nortel campus made no waves at all.
On the last day of 2008, Rongchen Pictures made a move that attracted attention from all sides.
Sina Entertainment News
"Today, Rongchen Films held a press conference in Beijing and will sue a group of infringing video websites, including Tudou, PPlive, ku6, etc."
"And called on relevant departments to speed up legislation and improve the copyright protection mechanism. "
"Judging from the announced infringing film and television dramas, in addition to the film and television dramas produced by Rongchen Films and Noon Sunshine, Rongchen Films also holds the copyrights of many domestic and foreign classic film and television dramas."< br>
“For example, for the 83 version of The Condor, TVB said that Rongchen Pictures purchased the eight-year copyright of the 83 version of The Condor. Without the authorization of Rongchen Pictures, any video website that plays the 83 version of The Condor is an infringement. .”
Netizens were shocked.
"Even the copyright of "Slam Dunk" belongs to Rongchen Pictures? Cartoons are not spared!"
"With Leo doing this, the video website is even worse."
"I actually saw "Doraemon". Leo is going to be the copyright king!"
Rongchen Pictures' sudden big move caught all parties by surprise.
The best painter in the world slapped his thigh, causing his blood pressure to rise.
"Hurry, let us LeTV follow suit!"
Wang Zhonglei secretly scolded Li Chen for not being a toy!
Today is their New Year’s Eve party hosted by Huayi! My headline!
Criticism goes without saying, but Wang Zhonglei is not stupid. This is related to the interests of all upstream producers, and he has to follow.
Their "The King of Kung Fu" has been tortured into ruins by piracy.
There are also "Assembly Number", "Night Banquet" and so on.
Bona's Yu Pangpang chuckled: "I'll follow!"
As a result, Li Chen was like the big brother taking the lead.
More than 80 copyright parties, including LeTV, New Picture, Bona, and Yinghuang, have formed a copyright alliance, and naturally they have to bring in the leader, Rongchen Pictures.
On the day after New Year’s Day, it was announced that evidence would be collected to sue video websites such as Tudou for infringement.
Public opinion on the Internet is also fermenting, and naturally various film and television companies are indispensable for this.
Netizens will not uphold justice. Pirated copies are so fun. They look just like the genuine ones. The most important thing is that they are free.
The farts of gods are extraordinary.
Li Chen’s move attracted the attention of his superiors.
This is not over yet, today Li Chen appeared at the Sina Internet Festival. Naturally, reporters will not let it go.
Li Chen, Wu Bin, Yang Siwei and Zhou Xun walked on the red carpet.
The backstage of Mei Lanfang Grand Theater is already filled with stars.
Ge Hong CP was surrounded like stars and the moon until Li Chen and others arrived.
The scene immediately turned into a Tai Chi picture.
Half of the people turned towards Li Chen, Yang Si Siwei and others surrounded him.
Li Chen also saw Pan Yueming, who was slightly fatter and had the same short hair style as Li Chen.
Pan Yueming smiled and bowed to shake hands: "Director Li, you are here too."
Li Chen smiled and said: "I'm fat. It seems that life after marriage is like a fish in water. Come and get it today." What award?”
Pan Yueming smiled slightly awkwardly: “Couple of the Year”
Li Chen was amused, Lao Cao really had a good eye.
Li Chen nodded, said a few more words to Pan Yueming, and then took the initiative to walk towards Gehong CP.
After all, this is the Mei Lanfang Grand Theater, and the protagonist tonight is definitely Brother Kaizi, who is in my territory and I have the final say.
Chen Kaige saw Li Chen and Yang Siwei walking forward with a smile.
The back is straightened even more, as if looking at people through the nostrils.
Those who don’t know may think that “Mei Lanfang” has a box office of 100 million US dollars.
"Director Chen, Sister Hong." Li Chen and Yang Siwei took the initiative to say hello.
Chen Kaige is always the same in front of outsiders, all because of Chen Hong's thoroughness.
"Li Chen, Si Si, congratulations on the sales of "Broken Love"."
"You're welcome, Sister Hong, and I also wish Director Chen Berlin to capture the bear." Li Chen smiled from the bottom of his heart. .
But Yang Siwei beside him felt that his boss was trying to trick Director Chen again.
But obviously these words scratched Brother Kaizi’s itch.
Kai Zige started to show off: "That year before "Farewell My Concubine" was completed, they invited me to participate in the Berlin Film Festival in 1993."
"But due to the later stage I missed it when it was too late and finally moved to Cannes. This time I couldn’t refuse the invitation.”
Li Chen said with a smile: “That’s right, that’s right”
The two golden palms chatted and laughed happily, which naturally attracted everyone's attention.
After a while, reporters squeezed in.
Li Chen and Chen Kaige were surrounded.
The problem is naturally related to the hot spots of copyright protection in recent days.
"Director Li, Director Chen, what do you two think about copyright protection?"
Chen Kaige did his job and spoke eloquently and from a high position when talking about China from abroad, but Li Chen couldn't get in the middle of the conversation at all.
Even Chen Hong can't stand it anymore.
Finally, Chen Kaige noticed the expressions of several reporters and ended the improvisation.
"Li Chen, what do you think?" Chen Kaige made a tall gesture.
Think of yourself as Di Renjie.
Li Chen makes a cameo appearance as Yuan Fang!
Li Chen chuckled and said: "Actually, you will understand if I give you a simple example."
"Why are there so few films released simultaneously in China, especially imported blockbusters? It can be said to be a week late or a year late. "
"One of the important reasons for this is copyright awareness. Our piracy is too rampant and the copyright protection mechanism is not perfect. Who dares to show it simultaneously? "
“Even our domestic producers have suffered greatly.”
"For example, in the North American market, other people's release period is one or two months."
"Our release period is one month, but in fact it is only half a month or even shorter, because pirated copies are often available after a week. "
"So, why is there a copyright alliance? Because we are the biggest victims."
The reporters smiled and nodded, feeling that Li Chen, the two Palme d'Or directors, was more down-to-earth. Some.
Li Chen’s words once again caused quite a stir.
Even the General Administration is preparing to hold a meeting to discuss copyright issues.
