MTL - I’m a Director, I’m Not Bad-Chapter 431 429. Wise Men's Worries

  Chapter 431 429. Concerns of the wise

   This script was not just read by Xu Xin. The next day, Yang Mi found two people in the screenwriting team and asked them to make a similar comparison.

   Jurisprudentially, there is a thing called "proper citation".

  Probably means that the content of the original work does not exceed "ten percent", it is not considered plagiarism.

   But the problem is that no one will copy and paste directly, so if you really have to judge, the boundary is still relatively vague.

  The jurisprudence of reference and plagiarism are also different.

  Yang Mi doesn't know Yu Zheng, but it doesn't mean that she doesn't know everything.

  If you want to catch this person's tail, it is...difficult from a legal perspective.

  But she has an advantage, that is... Yu Zheng, from her current perspective, is not too difficult to deal with.

   To put it bluntly, if the two really fight, then there is only one value standard for judging who to help.

   Whether to offend a screenwriter with a not-so-famous reputation, or offend one who has a good relationship with the three major studios, and there is even a double actress of Shaanxi TV who can only be regarded as the "younger brother" standing behind him.

   Not to mention other things that others can't see.

  So for Yang Mi, this problem is not too difficult to deal with.

  If the copyright of "Scary Step by Step" does not belong to her, then it doesn't matter.

  But now the copyright of this book is in her hands, and Tianyu or Yuzheng are rushing to give her eye drops...

   Then she has to talk about it.

  …

   "This neighborhood...is there a lake?"

  After meeting Yang Mi, Liu Zhishi's first words were to marvel at the scenery of this place.

  Yang Mi’s response is:

   "Do you want to pick up shit?"

  The vicious woman who led Zai Zai, who was walking very cheerfully, and Niu Niu, who was pot-bellied, asked so.

  Then, Liu Zhishi rolled her eyes and took the small shovel from her friend... the dog leash next to it.

  Your old man’s own dog poops, you can do it yourself.

  I won't get involved.

  Yang Mi squeezed her nose and threw the dog **** bag into the trash can, then she heard Liu Zhishi say:

   "Niuniu's belly is so big."

  Yang Mi nodded:

   "Well, Mimi is puffed up without seeing it."

   "...????"

   No, why is your focus always so strange?

  She was speechless and asked:

   "How much longer?"

   "It's almost half a month or so."

   "Give me one?"

   "Can you raise it? Can you take care of it? German shepherds still need a certain amount of activity. And although this dog can be raised rough, the later training is still very important. Have you raised a big dog before?"

   "...forget it."

   Upon hearing that it would be so troublesome, Liu Zhishi, who originally said to keep a dog as a companion, shook her head regretfully:

   “I have trouble taking care of myself.”

   "Well... what are you doing here this time?"

   "Signing the contract of "Weird Man Yizhimei", I asked for three days off."

   "How is Pandaren?"

   "Very good~ The shooting went super smooth~"

   "Ouch, please don't be so silly when you talk! It sounds very cute~"

   "Hey hey..."

  Her Wanwan accent, which she is learning now, is still a bit uninteresting to Yang Mi who has been specially trained.

  But she didn't care, she helped Yang Mi lead the lively Zizai and asked:

   "What's the price of the house here?"

   "I don't know, you can ask Xu Xin."

"Where is he?"

   "I'm watching the script at home."

   ""The Hawthorn Tree"?...By the way, I haven't seen Liu Yifei for a long time, what is she doing?"

   "Let's prepare the character at home."

  The original answer was distorted by Liu Zhishi's words.

   But it doesn't matter, the dog is gone in spring.

  The two walked home along Jingzang Lake.

  Liu Zhishi has been filming this film for a long time, and after coming back for three days, she also wanted to find friends to have a good time.

   That lump of **** obviously couldn't whet her appetite.

  After arriving at Mimi's house, she began to look forward to today's dishes.

  Eating meals cooked by Mimi herself, no one will lose their appetite.

   is saying that she is not indifferent to Yang Chunshui, she can also help in the fight.

  As for Xu Xin...

   No need to shout.

  I've been here so many times, I can't be more familiar with it.

   I will definitely meet you when you eat later.

   Help cut side dishes and prepare ingredients.

   And just when Yang Mi's pot of braised beef began to enter the stage of fried sugar SHAI, suddenly, the phone rang.

  Amidst the buzzing sound, she connected the phone.

  Because one hand needs to stir fry and the other hand needs to hold the pot, she immediately turned on the hands-free:

   "Hey, what's up?"

   It was Sun Ting who called:

   "Sister, the screenwriter has finished the palette. Shall I send it to your email now?"

   "Well, let's talk about the conclusion first."

   "Okay, I also asked about our legal affairs. If we learn from this kind of plot, it will be difficult to be plagiarized. So the best solution is to send a lawyer's letter to ask him to change it."

  ? ?

  Liu Zhishi was a little confused.

  What is this talking about?

   Then I heard Yang Mi say:

   "If he is afraid of the lawyer's letter, then he is not copying."

   Yu copy... Yu proof?

  The screenwriter?

  He... who did he copy?

   "So, legally, right?"

   "I'm afraid so."

   "...Okay, I see. You send it, and I'll take a look."

   "Hmm, ok, I'll send it to you now."

   "Where are you? Are you coming for dinner tonight? I made braised beef today."

   "Uh...I..."

  Hearing Sun Ting's hesitation, Yang Mi rolled her eyes:

   "Okay, let's hang up. Remember to protect yourself! It's embarrassing to get pregnant when you're not married!"

   "..."

   Liu Zhishi didn't know what Sun Ting's expression was.

  Anyway, she was speechless enough.

  Can you organize the wedding before you say this...

  The phone hung up, and Yang Mi said to someone:

   "Shishi, go find Xu Xin and ask him to log into my mailbox and print out the things Sun Ting sent."

"OK."

  Liu Zhishi nodded and walked out.

   All the way to the second floor, because it was the first time she came, she called out in advance:

   "Xu Xin?"

   "Eh...ah? Shishi?"

   Soon, Xu Xin appeared at the door of a room.

   Full of surprises:

   "Why are you here? Aren't you in Wanwan?"

   "I'll take a leave of absence and come back to sign a film contract."

   "Oh... Where's Yang Mi?"

   "It's cooking downstairs, she asked me to find you, log in to her mailbox, and print something."

   "Uh... good."

  He walked directly into the study, and Liu Zhishi also walked in.

  Looked at the furnishings in the study, and nodded secretly.

  Not to mention anything else, just look at the books on this bookshelf, and you will know how hard he works in private on weekdays.

   Then, she glanced at the separate volumes of "Scary Bubu" stacked on the table, and was a little surprised:

   "Have you started reading this kind of book?"

   "No...Yang Mi didn't tell you?"

"say what?"

   "This book was plagiarized... It's not plagiarized, but it must have been written along the lines of thought."

  Xu Xin pointed to the script in front of him.

  Liu Zhishi took a look and found that the name was "Gong Suo Xin Yu".

   "Gong Suo Xin Yu" plagiarized "Bubu Scarlet Heart"?

   Just thinking about it, the printer has already started working.

   Soon, the stack was quite thick, about thirty or forty pages of manuscript paper were printed, and Xu Xin handed it to her:

"Give."

   "Well, then I'm going downstairs... I'll call you when I'm eating?"

"good."

  After saying hello, Liu Zhishi walked out of the study with the materials in his hand.

  Walk while watching.

   These are tables.

  The table begins with the names of "Gongsuo Xinyu" and "Bubu Jingxin".

   Then there are some paragraphs of their own stories.

  The last box at the end of the same line is the epilogue such as "the narrative line here is the same", "the two stories are extremely similar", "the dialogue is almost the same".

   And passed the red font writing.

  Now Liu Zhishi probably knows what these documents are.

  Plagiarized and copied to the book in Mimi's hand?

   Tsk, really shameless.

  Holding the documents in her hand, she went all the way downstairs.

   And Yang Mi, who had already stewed the braised beef in brown sauce, took it over, glanced roughly, and heard Liu Zhishi ask:

   "What's going on?"

  Yang Mi didn't hide it. After telling the story, Liu Zhishi frowned:

   "Did they do it on purpose?"

"Probably not. I didn't provoke them. If they really wanted to do this, they don't need to come to me. Just film the story secretly. After all, plagiarism cannot be defined legally. So... a big possibility is They didn't know the book "Scary Step by Step". After receiving the story, they came to me directly."

"this…"

  Looking at Liu Zhishi's speechless appearance, Yang Mi smiled:

   "It's outrageous, isn't it?"

   "Um... so what are you going to do?"

   "This matter is out of my control."

  Yang Mi pointed to the top:

   "The script is for him, he will handle it. I will join the team in a few days... I can't worry about these things."

"the Grand Master?"

"Um."

   "Whoa...it's finally time to start..."

  Liu Zhishi's words got Yang Mi's nod.

yes.

   It's finally time to start.

  …

  Liu Zhishi went back after eating a meal.

   Didn't even drink wine.

  She just wanted honey, so she came over to have a meal.

   Before leaving, he also took gossip about "Scary Step by Step" and "Gong Suo Xin Yu".

  Besides, what she didn't tell Mimi was... From this moment on, she suddenly hated Yu Zheng.

   Or in other words, "to vent anger" and to hate the evidence.

  When she debuted, she was called "Liu Yifei's cousin".

   And when Liu Yifei's fans called her a "copycat" at first, she was still sad for a long time.

  Although there is nothing to do with Liu Yifei now, and the two surprisingly have a lot in common. However, because of her previous experience, she was particularly resistant to this kind of "high imitation copycat".

  So from this moment on, she hated this script called "Gong Suo Xin Yu".

   But it's just annoying.

  People didn't find me.

  I believe Mimi and Xu Xin can handle it well.

  After all, she has never seen Mimi suffer from anyone.

   And Xu Xin also called Qian Pengcheng.

   "Haha, Director Xu, hello, hello."

   Xu Xin heard the voice from Qian Pengcheng's side, but it was not noisy.

   And the state is quite relaxed.

   Seeing this, Xu Xin smiled and exchanged pleasantries with him, then asked:

   "Where is Mr. Qian at the moment?"

   "At home, Director Xu, I'm fine, don't worry if you have anything to say."

   "That's it... Mr. Qian, Yang Mi has already finished reading the script of "Gong Suo Xin Jade."

"oh?"

  The voice of Qian Pengcheng has gradually conveyed the emotion of anticipation:

   "How is it? Director Xu, is she interested?"

   "Here... Mr. Qian, may I ask how you got this script?"

   Seeing that he didn't answer directly, although Qian Pengcheng was a little puzzled, he still said:

   "The script was given to us by the screenwriter named Yu Zheng. We read it and felt that this kind of clear-cut idol drama has a good foundation. Director Xu also knows that we have always disliked the same repetitive themes.

   And this subject matter is very novel. After watching it again, everyone felt that if a first-line actor could be found to take the lead, this drama has the potential to become a big hit. We are friends, director Xu and Mimi must be thinking about this kind of thing first. Haha~"

  Xu Xin didn't decide whether Qian Pengcheng's words were true or not, but asked:

   "Then... Mr. Qian should know, this screenwriter doesn't have a very good reputation."

"Well…"

  Hearing this, Qian Pengcheng vaguely felt that there was something in Xu Xin's words, and his tone was more cautious:

"Of course I know, so we investigated this script very carefully, and found that except for some of his character designs that follow idol dramas, there is nothing else. Moreover, we think that this kind of clear idol drama character design, on the contrary It's a very novel idea to attract audiences. This kind of clear-cut idol drama has a very good prospect at present....Director Xu, is there any problem with this script?"

   "..."

  Xu Xin was silent for a while, as if he was judging whether Qian Pengcheng's words were true or not.

   After a moment of silence, he said:

   "Mr. Qian, do you still remember the manager Xiao from that website when we first met?"

   "Well, remember, what happened?"

   "After getting to know him, we have cooperated twice in total. One is the book called "The Legend of Zhen Huan", and the other time is a novel called "Scary Bubu". Do you have a computer with you, Mr. Qian?"

"have."

   "Then please send me your email address, and I will send you a document for you to take a look at."

"good…"

  Qian Pengcheng mentioned his email address, and after Xu Xin sent the color palette file for comparison, he continued:

"I'll tell you the truth, this script is based on the outline of the plot of "Scary Step by Step", and then mixed with the protagonist of "Meteor Garden"...Of course, as you said, he It's nothing to borrow from the characters, but this plot... If "Scary Step by Step" is a high-quality match, then this drama is like a beggar's version of the copycat. "

   "..."

  In an instant, Qian Pengcheng didn't say a word.

  Xu Xin continued:

   "I've been watching it for the past few days, comparing it as I read it. The more I read it, the more something is wrong. So why don't I call and ask to see what's going on with this script."

   "..."

  Qian Pengcheng was silent again, and then the "buzzing" sound of the printer rang from the phone.

   "...Director Xu, let me read this document first."

   "Well, good. The money will always be looked at first, and I will hang up first."

   "Okay... that... Director Xu."

"Um?"

   "The people in the company really didn't find out about this script. If there is such a thing, then no matter what, I won't give you the script..."

   "Hahaha, I didn't mean that either."

  Xu Xin smiled and said:

"Yang Mi is also very serious about it, but since she found a problem, she must communicate with President Qian, right? The copyright of "Scary Step by Step" is with me now, if he didn't pick it up too much. Great, I wouldn't call to ask about the situation..."

  It doesn't matter if he or Qian Pengcheng.

  Both of them kept talking.

   Nothing **** for tat.

  Because we haven't reached that point yet.

  But at the same time, both of them also understood in their hearts that if this is really the case...

  Nianyu's side is really going to take a big scapegoat for this incident.

  Your screenwriter picked up my outline and wanted me to act...

  Whoever puts this matter on, it is an unsound thing that is not good to hear or say.

  Seeing that there is still room for "recovery", Qian Pengcheng felt more at ease, and said at the same time:

   "Well, I will also forward this information to the people in the company now, let's study it, and reply to Director Xu in the next two days?"

   "Well, good. I'm sorry to make Mr. Qian work so hard at such a late hour..."

   "Where is it? Fortunately, Director Xu discovered this in time, otherwise I will not be able to hold my head up in front of Director Xu..."

"Hahaha…"

"Ha ha ha ha…"

   After haha, the phone hung up.

  Yang Mi, who has been listening by the side, said:

   "Since he can put it aside... it means that they really don't seem to know about it."

   "It's useless to think about it now. You can just think about two things."

  Xu Xin raised two fingers:

   "One, what should they do if they did it on purpose. Second, what should you do if they didn't do it on purpose."

"so what should I do now?"

  Hearing what his wife said, Xu Xin thought for a while and said:

   "Aside from these two aspects, what do you think he said... about the subject matter, what do you think?"

   "Clean wear?"

   "Yes. Time travel... It's really rare on TV. I remember a TV series called "Love Through Time and Space", right? What else?"

  Yang Mi frowned slightly.

   Shaking his head for a moment:

   "I really can't remember it for a while. However, since I can't remember it, it means that there haven't been any popular TV dramas with this theme. The market prospect should be good... "Scary Step by Step" can try to adapt it."

   “Try it? … What did you buy it for?”

  Xu Xin was a little speechless.

  The copyrights in her possession these years are not twenty but fifteen, right?

  Some books are cheap, and one hundred and eighty thousand will be in your hands.

   But it has become more and more expensive in the past two years...but her will has not weakened in the slightest.

  How can you listen to this...

   Didn't she buy "Scary Step by Step" for the adaptation?

   Hey you prodigal bitch.

  Millions let you let this bragging blow bubbles, right?

  Yang Mi is really speechless...

  What can she say?

  I bought it just to disgust Tang people?

  Who made the Tang people disgust me first?

  She doesn't want to talk about it.

  Who knows what my brother's temper will do when he knows these things?

  She is not afraid of the Tang people, but rather enjoys the process of intrigue. I was afraid that my brother would use "Thunder Fury", so I found a contact I hadn't heard of or used other methods to beat the boss I was about to upgrade.

  So, she can only shake her head:

   "I'm afraid that I'm going to take too big a step."

   "..."

  Xu Xin was speechless, and his eyes were full of emotions: "You speak human language"?

  A TV series called Step Up Big?

   Do you have any misunderstanding about steps?

   Facing his gaze, Yang Mi did not continue to explain.

   He just frowned and thought for a while, then said:

"Speaking of which, there seems to be a market for Qingchuan. It seems that this subject matter has not been touched much. Then, shall I start to adapt this script? The market is currently blank, in case people from Tianyu do something... Then I really suffer a lot!"

  Xu Xin thought for a while, then nodded:

   "It can be fast, but there is no need to be in such a hurry, the quality must be guaranteed. The original novel is quite exciting, you have to ask people to correct it, time is not a problem."

"Not urgent?"

  Yang Mi was a little surprised.

   "Aren't you in a hurry? Everyone else's scripts have come out!"

"Of course there is no rush. Think about it from another angle. If the people from Tianyu did it on purpose, then the script has already come out now. According to the script of this kind of idol drama, their preparation work will definitely be very fast. Girls looking for beautiful girls , the man looks for a handsome man, gets a few sets of palace clothes, finds a director, and maybe ten days and a half months will start the machine. No matter what you do, it will definitely be too late."

   "Then if they didn't do it on purpose..."

  Hearing this, Xu Xin smiled, holding a teacup and said unhurriedly:

"Then this script not only needs to be changed, but also we have something better. Let's cooperate... Isn't the goal of everyone rushing from the beginning is to cooperate and win-win? Therefore, knowing that time is too late, we even more Be a friend of time. Even if they want to make "Gong Suo Xin Jade", they have to save this lead for "Scary Step by Step".

   "...Are you sure? That's Hunan TV."

   "What does it matter if you are sure?"

  Xu Xin shrugged:

"We are not able to get up because of Hunan TV. You can live well if you offend them. On the contrary, they are the same. Since everyone has the ability to live well after offending the other party, if you cooperate It's a win-win situation again... Then who would go to fight life and death to make enemies for themselves? This is not the way of a wise man. So... rest assured."

  A cigarette is lit.

  Among the puffing smoke, a voice came slowly:

   "Just follow your pace. We need quality more than speed. They have the capital to offend you, and you also have the confidence to eat their meat. No one is inferior to anyone else. Don't be afraid."

  He said calmly:

"I am here."
