Chapter 171: The result is beautiful

At this time, Wen Qingyuan had already walked out of the restaurant and walked to Qin Xiao's side. Seeing the ruthlessness on his expression, he knew that there must be something that annoyed him. So when Qin Xiao hung up the phone, he hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Qin Xiao repeated Liu Hai's words just now. "I don't think it's appropriate for us to come forward. Filming started last month, and it's been a month now, to say the least. ”

Wen Qingyuan's eyes widened: "I'll go!" Why didn't I find Song Feng so shameless before? Is this a pervert after hooking up with Yang Caihua and Fei You? Are they poisonous? ”

Qin Xiao grabbed Wen Qingyuan's shoulder, and then led the person to the direction of the elevator. "There's always going to be a lot of changes that we didn't expect. It is impossible for all to develop in a super good direction, and Songfeng is not without signs to follow. I haven't found out what they're doing before, in addition to their good image before, it may be because no one can threaten his position. It's different now. Healthy cooperation and competition, they probably can't see the hope of winning over us, so they will choose these indiscriminate tricks. But anything can happen in this circle. And driven by huge interests, it is not surprising that they will do anything. ”

"So how do we deal with it? If only they had filmed it first. Even if they win in the end, they are plagiarism, and Yiran's drama will be considered a failure, and the ratings will not be good when filmed. This is what Wen Qingyuan is most concerned about and worried about.

Qin Xiao patted the big baby's shoulder: "So we have to make them unable to shoot." Since they did such a thing, we don't need to be polite to them. And this matter is more suitable for Lei Zi to do it than us. ”

"You mean to let Boss Lei deal with Song Feng?" Wen Qingyuan hadn't thought about this. But now that I think about it, although the play is laughing, the investor is Lei's Group! The starring role is Tian Yiran again, and it seems a little unreasonable for Boss Lei not to deal with Songfeng.

Qin Xiao didn't answer, but the meaning was already obvious. The two men looked at each other for a moment, then both smiled. "I guess we may have to shoot some close-ups in the next two days, and it's not too easy. Let's go back to our room and rest. ”

At this time, Johannes came from behind and stopped two people. "Qin, Wen, I have something to tell you."

Johannes followed the two men to their guest room. In the small living room, Qin Xiao personally soaked a pot of Dai buds for Johannes. The big star had an intoxicated expression when he smelled the tea, and praised Huaguo for having good things everywhere, and he must stay for a few more days when the movie is promoted, eat and drink well.

After just a few pleasantries, Johannes got to the point. "Qin, I have a director friend who is not very famous, but he likes your Chinese culture very much. I hope to shoot a multi-episode documentary on Chinese culture. But he has no acquaintances in China, and because he is not famous, it is difficult to find investment. So this plan was abandoned before. But recently we got in touch and I told him about you, and he rekindled hope. It's a bit presumptuous, but I've been asked what you mean. Are you interested in working with him? He's really a very good director, it's just that the things he likes to shoot are a bit offbeat and it's hard to get into the commercial market. ”

This mention surprised the two of them. Do documentaries about Chinese culture still need to be filmed by foreigners? This is the first reaction of Chinese people after hearing it. Sometimes, however, the opposite is true. What you see for your own people must be what you like in China, otherwise there will be no attention, and it doesn't make much sense to shoot it, so it can only be regarded as archival information. And what foreigners want to shoot, the angle of cut must be what they like and eager to know. This is more beneficial for promoting Chinese culture in the world. Of course, the premise is that the entry point of the shooting can be listened to, and the content and cultural meaning of the shooting still have to be decided by the Chinese people themselves to be more accurate.

Seeing that the two of them did not respond for a long time, Johannes was a little embarrassed. "Qin, if you don't agree, it's normal."

Qin Xiao hurriedly waved his hand: "No." I'm very interested in this mentions. I just followed this idea and thought about some content. I wanted to meet the director and talk to him in person. If I agree with his idea, this cooperation is perfectly fine. Although in my country, documentaries may not bring much commercial value, but they are also an indispensable cultural carrier. I also hope that there will be more and better real documentaries, so that people around the world can see the history and charm of our country and the development and growth of the present. ”

After listening to Qin Xiao's words, Johannes became excited. "That's amazing! Although he was in a hurry, I still asked him not to disturb the progress of our shooting. The next step is to shoot indoors, and the camera will be closed. Willow wouldn't let anyone else in. So after the finish, I'm going to bother you to stay for two more days. He had prepared a lot of materials beforehand. Maybe he'll bring a lot of stuff over. ”

On the set, Johannes was a very funny person, very cheerful and talkative. So a lot of people will joke with him. Wen Qingyuan is no exception. "John, then when we're done, you have to participate in the documentary to raise the profile of this film!"

Johannes smiled and nodded: "Happy!" And it's free! ”

Boss Lei's movements are extremely fast, and before Qin Xiao and Wen Qingyuan's movie is finished, there is good news from the country.

Songfeng Film and Television's new film "The Son of Food" was taken to court for alleged infringement. In fact, such cases usually drag on for a long time, but as soon as the case began, three investors demanded to withdraw their funds on the grounds of this lawsuit. Song Feng is rich, and it is not a problem to carry those investments by himself, and the investment in this TV series itself is not large. But if they agree to withdraw their investment, it is tantamount to acquiescing in the infringement of the script. Regardless of what is determined in the law, those in the industry and online have a lot of brains. What's more, this is not a brain hole.

What Wen Qingyuan and Qin Xiao didn't expect was this. The information that Liu Hai heard at first was inaccurate. Although Song Feng's script was rewritten according to the routine of "Ding Wei Ji", the person who rewrote it was not the original author. It was directly changed by a screenwriter in their own company. This is also the reason why she went directly to court, the original author was inexplicably scolded a lot because of Song Feng's actions, the key is that she didn't see a dime.

"How did you justifiably say this blatant rumor-mongering and plagiarism?" Wen Qingyuan was shocked after hearing this.

Qin Xiao thought about it for a while, but he didn't find the right one. "All I can say is that I really don't understand what they think. But maybe it's just to make trouble for us. The previous "Legend of Immortals and Demons" was a similar method. But it's just the same genre, and he doesn't dare to plagiarize a classic novel like "Gods and Demons". This time, their "Gourmet Son" is simply a refresh of the lower limit. ”

Speaking of deliberately making trouble, Wen Qingyuan felt that it made sense. "If they don't invest much in this drama, and the filming is carried out secretly, there is no news, maybe it will really block us. Brother Hai didn't say it in the first two days, but their "Son of Food" had no preparation time at all, and it was almost suddenly started. The people are also from their company, and they have brought a lot of newcomers. Do you think it's possible that it was aimed at "Ding Wei Ji"? After all, if they shoot according to the plan, they can almost return on the cost by finding a random website to put it. Even if the defendant infringes in the end, they can afford to pay compensation. But in this way, dramas with similar plots come out, and no matter how good "Dingwei Ji" is, it will get involved in disputes, which will directly affect ratings and advertising. And everyone knows that Yiran and us are iron buddies, this drama is Yiran picked and made by himself, if they think that hitting Yiran is equivalent to hitting us, it is not impossible. Their compensation and investment are certainly not as much as our investment at present. ”

Qin Xiao nodded: "I thought so too." We are filming abroad, and "Tricks" is still on the air, and "The Secret History of the Dynasty" on the imperial court station is on the imperial court, and they don't dare to be so arrogant if they want to attack the two of us. Outsiders don't know the relationship between Yiran and Lei Zi at all, and it's not surprising to think that he just relies on the two of us to get resources. It's a pity, Lei Zi can't see this the most. They will definitely lose this lawsuit. Although it's quite annoying, it's fortunate that it was discovered in time and it doesn't affect "Ding Wei Ji". ”

Wen Qingyuan snorted: "Then this can be regarded as a complete public tear of the face." After that, it's time to really start a war. It's annoying. Can you deal with them like you did with Shengshi? ”

Qin Xiao looked at the big baby's shining eyes and couldn't cry or laugh. "Songfeng has strong resources, and our current ability can match them in terms of resources and technology. If you want to crush them to the point of pocketing them, you don't have that strength for the time being. But I'll work on that. ”

Xiao Yuanyuan still didn't give up: "Then Songfeng's boss doesn't have other industries?" ”

"Absolutely. But that's all petty fighting. It's not the same type as Shen Shengming at all. Even if you swallow them all, it won't help. All of this has been investigated since the beginning. Moreover, Song Fengshu has deep roots, it is not a monopoly, and one or two can't control the power. And Songfeng is not a new president, who knows what privacy is not known. Well, these things don't happen overnight. If it has something to do with money, hand it over to Liu Fan, and he will definitely surprise us. As for the operation of Shengshi and Xiaoyuan, Hai Ge and Mo Ru can also handle it. Let's hurry up and finish filming this drama now. Then talk to Johannes' friends about making a good documentary. I think that's a great opportunity. For example, in the image. ”

Wen Qingyuan could only nod: "Alas." It's rare that I have a little bit to do with business, so you don't want to talk to me. But forget it, I don't care about you. As for the documentary, I thought it was great from the beginning! It is best to shoot exclusively with our company, and the director is considered to have joined, which is the most powerful for us. Otherwise, if a group of foreigners come to photograph the culture of our country, they always feel that they can't grasp the essence, and most of them are some strange points they find. ”

"That's what I thought, too. Anyway, it's going to be done next week. Wait for someone to come over and let's have a good discussion. There are now several documentaries in China that are quite popular. As long as the well-filmed content is in place, you can also make a lot of money after the publicity keeps up. Actually, I have another idea, you think to make a series of feature films, choose a few key points. For example, specialty snacks, ancient handicrafts, and local customs. Then, starting from one city, each province selects a few representative cities for filming. One episode per province. Although the filming period will be very long, after the shooting, I am confident that it will be the best documentary to promote China to the outside world. "It is precisely because of this ambition that Qin Xiao will think more when he is resting. He and Wen Qingyuan need to be invincible in the circle in the future, and after coming out, people can't shake their status, so they have to do a lot of things that really contribute. Doing charity is their own will, gratitude for rebirth. And what you can do for your country by your own ability, even if it is a meager effort, is real. Although there is some purpose and utilitarianism, who doesn't think about a thing or two for themselves before doing anything? As long as the result is good, isn't it.
