On March 2, 2000, two film launch conferences held in Chongqing and Xiangjiang dominated the headlines of major newspapers.

Chongqing Evening News: Who plagiarized whom? - On "Crazy Stone" and "Magic Green Jade"

Our reporter Zhou Huixin reported that at the press conference for the movie "Magic Green Jade" held at the Huangyue Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong yesterday morning, the script creator Ma Yuan openly accused someone of plagiarizing his work, and the plagiarist was actually the well-known novel writer Chen Yuan! Coincidentally, the alleged plagiarized work "Crazy Stone" almost held a film launch conference in Yuzhong District, the city.

In the face of Ma Yuan's blatant accusations, Chen Yuan behaved very calmly. He defended that the script "Crazy Stone" had been completed as early as December last year and submitted to several film and television production companies through the computer network. Unfortunately, it was not reasonably offered. And Ma Yuan's Zhongbo Media Century Entertainment Co., Ltd. is one of the companies where he delivers the script!

Chen Yuan decided to resort to the matter and protect his rights and image through legal means.

At the launch conference, Chen Yuan got the support of directors Guan Hu and Ning Hao from the same crew, actors Li Bing, Huang Bo and others, they claimed that they and others could be guaranteed, the script "Crazy Stone" was Chen Yuan's original, and the so-called "Magic Green Jade" was a real plagiarized work!

As the main creator of the movie "Magic Green Jade", from director Chen Jing to actors Zhang Weijian, Luo Jiaying, Wu Junru and others, they also supported Ma Yuan. Director Chen Jing said that he had made a strong condemnation to the crew of "Crazy Stone" and asked the crew of "Crazy Stone" to stop filming. However, the crew of "Crazy Stone" said that they did not receive the so-called condemnation from the other party, and Chen Jing's "being a man and leaving a line, and seeing each other in the future" should be a manifestation of his lack of confidence.

"Crazy Stone" and "Magic Green Jade" both accused both sides of plagiarism, Ma Yuan took the lead, and Chen Yuan was not afraid. Which of the two is right and which is wrong? Our reporter Zhou Huixin will continue to report for you.

The Sun: Chen Jing changed his course, and the news was reported at the start-up press conference

As a representative of independent films, the film trilogy "Made in Hong Kong", "Last Year's Fireworks Were Particularly Large" and "Little Road Xiang" directed by Chen Jing have won many international awards. However, now he has changed his course, abandoning art films and taking the initiative to make mainstream commercial films. The reason is that I took a fancy to a wonderful script called "Magic Green Jade"!

In order to make this movie well, Chen Jing invited many big-name stars, such as Zhang Weijian, Luo Jiaying, Wu Junru, Xu Ruoxuan, Zeng Zhiwei, Huang Yishan and others. The reporter didn't find a single unfamiliar face. This is very inconsistent with director Chen Jing's consistent style. However, judging from the main creative lineup, "Magic Green Jade" should be a comedy.

Comedy is always one of the most popular film genres, and director Chen Jing's choice of his transformation is undoubtedly very correct. I really hope that he can be as he said, "Magic Green Jade" can be both artistic and dramatic, and achieve a win-win result at the box office and word of mouth.

However, the biggest news at this press conference was not the transformation of director Chen Jing, but the fact that the movie script "Magic Green Jade" was plagiarized by others. According to Ma Yuan, the screenwriter of "Magic Green Jade", the plagiarist is Chen Yuan, a young writer who has recently become famous!

Dramatically, the plagiarized work "Crazy Stone" also held a kick-off press conference at the same time on the same day!

Many people are familiar with the name Chen Yuan, and when they mention him, they will first think of his work "Feng Demon", an incomparable masterpiece. His royalty is 25%, surpassing that of well-known writers such as Jin Guliang. He became famous at a young age, and he became rich overnight. But such a person would plagiarize and plagiarize other people's movie scripts!

……

Many media outlets are neutral about this incident and only report on the specific situation. Many media outlets in Hong Kong and several mainland newspapers have accused Chen Yuan of plagiarism. It's not enough to be famous at a young age, but to covet the fruits of other people's labor, such behavior is disgusted and abandoned!

Of course, there are accusations, and naturally there is support. Yangcheng Evening News, Xinhua Daily, Guangming Daily, Entertainment Weekly and many other media strongly supported Chen Yuan, and the report pointed out that Ma Yuan's wicked person sued first, as a plagiarist, he tried in vain to occupy the moral high ground through preemptive means, such a person is simply shameless to the extreme!

These newspapers also listed the names of more than a dozen film and television production companies and more than a dozen well-known directors, all of whom had received Chen Yuan's script "Crazy Stone", which can prove Chen Yuan's identity as the original creator!

Suddenly, Ma Yuan fell into disadvantage. His preemptive strike does not seem to have been achieved......

However, at this moment, Ma Yuan, who is enjoying the scenery of Victoria Harbour at the Huangyue Hotel, is in high spirits!

Just now, he shared his creative experience with many media reporters.

He was inspired by Guy Ritchie's Two Smoking Guns, for which he took out two old movie tickets to prove that he had actually seen the film and was impressed by it.

Then, he took out the manuscript that he had deleted and revised more than ten times. The original story was a bit rudimentary, but with the increase in the number of deletions, the story structure became more and more perfect, and the characters became fuller.

Finally, he pulled out a somewhat old numbered plate. After the completion of "Magic Green Jade", he placed it in the company's source library and marked it with a number. This numbered plate can prove that the storage time of "Magic Green Jade" was in June of the previous year, half a year earlier than the beginning of December of the previous year that Chen Yuan announced to the media!

These things are enough to prove his identity as the original creator, and when the major media publish these relevant evidence tomorrow, the media supporting Chen Yuan will definitely die down. Public opinion is naturally on his side!

As for the court? Ma Yuan sneered, the court also has to talk about evidence, he has already destroyed all the relevant evidence, without those evidence, what can the court do to him? A little kid even dares to fight him! Hum......

Yuzhong District, Chongqing, located in the factory activity room near Zhongshan 3rd Road.

Wang Baoqiang is holding a big knife to play Guan Gong, and the two elementary school apprentices opposite are doing sculpture exercises with Wang Baoqiang.

Guan Hu walked in angrily, Wang Baoqiang and the others didn't have time to retract, Guan Hu had already walked in front of them.

Guo Han was full of fire cups, looking at the pennant opposite in a daze. The pennant reads "Safety Production Model" and "Ten Years of Accident-Free Unit".

Guan Hu came to Guo Han and threw the resignation letter beside him.

Guan Hu said in a Chongqing accent: "I think you are dizzy!" What can you do if you quit? ”

Guo Han took out a cigarette butt from the ashtray: "Don't you quit?" I can't pick out a single Hongta Mountain. I didn't pay my salary for eight months, and you asked my wife to drink the northwest wind with me? ”

Guan Hu helped Guo Han pull it out, revealing the word "dry" on his back.

Guo Han sat up, picked up a trophy, lifted the lid, and took a sip of water: "It's better than waiting for you to sell the factory and starve to death." ”

Guan Hu said: "The news has been reported, (smiled) You are still a stuffy donkey, (take out the newspaper) Look at this, this thing can be done well, not only will you not sell the factory, but the wages owed can also be paid."

Guo Han glanced at it and saw a photo of jadeite in the newspaper, which read, "Amazing jade, our city has been invisible for 20 years".

"Stop!" There was a loud cheer in the distance, and Guo Han, Guan Hu, Wang Baoqiang and others suddenly relaxed.

Ning Hao looked through the replay on the monitor, found nothing wrong, and unconsciously showed a smile on his face.

Chen Yuan, who was sitting in the assistant director's seat, asked, "How is it, is there a problem?" ”

"No," Ning Hao replied, and then he asked again, "How are you over there?" Is there a problem? ”

The leader of the voice group made an OK gesture. Everyone was immediately happy.

The scenes to be filmed today are concentrated in this abandoned factory, and there are many scenes to be filmed indoors and outdoors. It was the first day of official shooting, and everything went well. Under the overall coordination of the director team and the production team, the crew members worked in an orderly manner, and there were very few problems, and the performance of the actors was remarkable.

This smooth situation exceeded the expectations of the two directors, who thought how difficult it would be to shoot "Crazy Stone", but when it came to filming, they found that it was easier than they imagined. Guan Hu and Ning Hao relaxed, and for most of the day, they always had a smile on their faces.

Chen Yuan still looked indifferent, as if he didn't care about everything around him. But the careful Su Muying found that Chen Yuan was still a little different from usual.

"Brother Chen Yuan, you seem to be a little unhappy," Su Muying asked softly, "Is it because of yesterday's incident?" ”

"I'm oversimplifying. When I looked through the email messages on the Internet this morning, I found that the email messages between me and that Ma Yuan had disappeared, and they should have been deleted by a hacker hired by him! In this way, we have less evidence to accuse him of plagiarism......" Chen Yuan said calmly.

"Huh?" Su Muying said worriedly, "Then what should we do?" ”

"He thought he was doing it seamlessly, but he didn't know that he had made the biggest mistake." Chen Yuan smiled faintly and said, "Muying, you wait." When the time comes, I promise that he will not be able to eat and walk around! ”
