Chapter 104: Is it ghostwriting?

As soon as Zhou Xu's words fell, the atmosphere in the conference room began to become weird.

Although Zhou Xu said a lot, there was one meaning in his words -- "Hamlet" was not written by you, was it? You really didn't write it, did you?

Ye Chen sneered in his heart, he really underestimated him!

Not to mention anything else, "Hamlet" does use a lot of market slang, but it is insignificant compared to the whole script, and it is difficult to find out if you are not careful.

What a deliberate attempt to kill Hamlet!

The protection of intellectual property rights in the empire was unparalleled, and for this reason, the phenomenon of piracy of literary works was so averse to that most people would choose to support the original, even if there was piracy.

This is true of piracy, let alone plagiarism ghostwriting of literary works!

It is no exaggeration to say that in the imperial literary world, or in any other field, as long as someone is exposed to the signs of plagiarism or ghostwriting in his work, then no matter how famous and high the status of this person is, this person will be ruined!

What's more, Ye Chen is just a complete newcomer!

Once he has confirmed the name of ghostwriting, Ye Chen can be said to have never come out in the literary world!

According to the laws of the Empire, at least prison is inevitable!

If Zhou Xu was just a little annoying person in Ye Chen's eyes just now, then Zhou Xu at this moment has completely become a mortal enemy in Ye Chen's eyes!

Ye Chen was about to speak, and Anna on the side had already raised her eyebrows and said: "Zhou Xu, you have to know what you mean by what you say, you will be legally responsible for slander for no reason!"

At this time, Xie Quan also frowned and said angrily: "Xiao Zhou, you can't talk nonsense, you should know the nature of this matter!"

The others also echoed it, but they didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts!

Only Xi Jiu, still with an expression of an old god, looked at Ye Chen with interest, wanting to see what Ye Chen would do next.

Although the maintenance of Anna and Xie Quan made Ye Chen's heart warm, Ye Chen knew in his heart that Zhou Xu's remarks did make him suspicious, if he didn't explain it clearly, let alone put "Hamlet" on the stage of the Royal Theater, he would be ruined if he didn't get it right!

Not to mention anything else, at least although everyone said that they couldn't say anything, they had a tacit understanding not to mention the matter of making "Hamlet" a repertoire!

Speaking of which, Zhou Xu's statement is actually very far-fetched, "Hamlet" is a typical Western drama, and it is most normal for the play to be interspersed with some Western market slang, but the bad is at Ye Chen's age!

Ye Chen is too young! Too young!

Which of the people present did not have to be in the theater industry for decades to have today's status?

Even Zhou Xu, who is second only to Ye Chen in terms of youth, graduated from the Imperial Drama Academy, and he was only able to enter the troupe because he was a student of Xi Jiu.

Even so, it's just learning in the troupe and running errands!

And Anna has been learning from Xie Quan!

Only Ye Chen, who has never systematically studied drama creation before, but the drama work he wrote for the first time is so good, not to mention, he is obviously a high school student who has never gone abroad, and what he wrote is actually a Western drama!

And judging from the script, Ye Chen still knows a lot about the customs and customs of the West!

All these factors add up, and there are indeed reasons for everyone to be suspicious!

In the final analysis, Ye Chen is still too young, and "Hamlet" is Shakespeare's pinnacle of dramatic work, no one believes that "Hamlet", which is extremely mature in all aspects, can be created by Ye Chen at this age, or rather, he doesn't want to believe it!

There should be a limit to genius, too!

Another reason is that the repertoire of this performance is to be performed at the exchange party of the royal families of the two countries, if "Hamlet" is indeed not Ye Chen's work, then once it is revealed afterwards that it is ghostwriting, then the entire royal family will become a laughing stock!

No one can afford this responsibility, even Xie Quan!

This is also where Xie Quan suddenly hesitated, although Xie Quan did not think that "Hamlet" was written by Ye Chen in his heart, but there is absolutely no room for error in this matter!

Ye Chen saw everyone's reaction, I am afraid that among the people present, except for Anna's unwavering belief that "Hamlet" was created by herself, I am afraid that even Xie Quan will be shaken!

This is human nature, of course Ye Chen will not blame Xie Quan for anything, the stakes are very high, and if Ye Chen is replaced, he will have some doubts!

What's more, being able to come here was the opportunity Xie Quan gave himself!

However, Ye Chen is not worried!

How much slander you can withstand, how much praise you can withstand!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen smiled and said: "Don't worry, I know how strict the laws of the empire are for finding someone to ghostwrite, I won't be stupid, what's more, to put it mildly, now the kid is also a little famous in the literary world, and the kid can't find someone to ghostwrite a drama at all!"

What Ye Chen said was reasonable, and everyone couldn't help nodding secretly when they heard it!

Indeed, everyone ignored that in addition to the young drama genius on Ye Chen, there was also a more dazzling aura!

That's the best-selling author!

Ye Chen doesn't need to take the risk of finding someone to ghostwrite a cross-border drama!

Although they don't want to admit it, everyone has to admit that in the current environment, fiction writers are much more popular than becoming drama screenwriters, not to mention best-selling authors.

Xie Quan nodded secretly after hearing this, and he was a little ashamed in his heart, he actually doubted whether Ye Chen was looking for someone to ghostwrite!

Thinking of this, Xie Quan glanced at Ye Chen, and secretly made a decision in his heart!

However, before that, it is better to decide that "Hamlet" will be a repertoire for the exchange of the two royal families, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and it can be rehearsed earlier if it is decided earlier.

"Since everyone thinks that "Hamlet" is feasible, then I declare that the repertoire of our troupe at this royal exchange gathering between the two countries is ......"

"I'm against it!"

The person who spoke was still Zhou Xu.

Seeing that Zhou Xu was against it again, not only Xie Quan, but even everyone present couldn't help frowning, and they were also a little dissatisfied in their hearts.

Having said that, "Hamlet" is definitely not ghostwriting, and it will be a bit too much to mess around!

Even the conservatives among the crowd are a little dissatisfied, after all, although there are small groups in the troupe, everyone's interests are the same, and they all want to perform well at this royal exchange party, not to mention winning glory for the country, but also to improve their fame a lot.

What's more, even Zhou Xu's teacher Xi Jiu didn't open his mouth to object, Zhou Xu is really unwise to do this!

Of course, Zhou Xu could see everyone's dissatisfaction, but Zhou Xu really couldn't swallow this breath in his heart, especially just now when Anna was still defending Ye Chen, Zhou Xu couldn't help but speak anymore.

Turned his head and glanced at Xi Jiu, seeing that Xi Jiu's face was obviously disappointed, he gritted his teeth, Zhou Xu couldn't care so much at the moment!

"I object, although Ye Chen has some truth in what he said, it still can't prove that "Hamlet" is not ghostwritten!" (To be continued.) )
