Chapter 145: Not being envied is mediocrity
Zhang Dabeard slammed the table.
"Yu Min, you go and ask Liu Changshan what they are doing, let them revise a script, and give me such a moth, do you want to hype it up for me?"
Yu Min pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose: "After the news came out, a reporter called me, and I called Liu Changshan and them as soon as possible." At first, Liu Changshan also said that he just complained to the reporter in private, and had nothing else to do. Later, when I called him again, he didn't answer. ”
Zhang Dabeard scolded: "Fuck, bullshit calf dog thing, you call him with my mobile phone, I don't think he can answer it." ”
Yu Min took Zhang's bearded mobile phone, turned on the voiceover, and dialed Liu Changshan, after a few busy tones, the phone was connected, and Liu Changshan's voice came from the microphone: "Hey, Director Zhang." ”
Yu Min immediately asked: "Liu Changshan, why didn't you answer my phone, now that the news is overwhelming, what do you want to do!" ”
"It's Director Yu, I was a little delayed before, and I didn't see your phone. And I didn't tell you, I just told you a joke in private, and I was poked out by those reporters. Liu Changshan said with a smile.
"Do you know how much trouble this caused our crew?"
"Causing trouble?" Liu Changshan raised his voice, "Old Yu, you're not right, you asked a few of us to write the script, and let a hairy kid press us, what do you mean, the script is written satisfactorily or not, and you want him to nod his head, what do you think of us?" ”
Zhang Dabeard was on the side, and he couldn't help but scold: "You dog Liu Changshan, when you give you money." You just promised, what did I tell you. I said that the script should not be too biased. And if you are not satisfied with Zhang Tan's meddling in the script, you can just tell me. I'm here to discuss a solution for you, who told you to tell the reporter! ”
The other side was silent for a while, and then Liu Changshan said: "Director Zhang, a few of us are just not convinced, he is a little hairy boy wearing open crotch pants, why do you think you can point fingers at us?" ”
"Your mother is big, it's reasonable! Just by selling 10 million copies of his book, he made millions in royalties alone, you can compare. Are you old enough to live like a dog! ”
"Director Zhang, I don't like to hear what you say, you make more money than us, how much does script creation have to do with how much money you make? He just sold 100 million copies of 100 billion copies, and he is also not a fart in the screenwriter circle, why should he accommodate him, it's a big deal to break up. ”
"What did I tell you before, and now you're going to pick a son for me and leave? What do you think of me Zhang Weishen here, Lao She's "Teahouse". Come when you want, go when you want? ”
"I don't want to either, but that's it for now, Director Zhang, you can do it."
Liu Changshan's words were finished. Zhang Dabeard was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and it took a long time to ease his breath: "Don't play this trick with me, the dead pig is not afraid of boiling water, and now I have contacted Zhang Tan's side." You immediately apologize to him in the newspaper, and I will treat it as if it didn't happen. The cooperation is also a cooperation, and I will say that. Within two days, I had to read it in the newspapers. ”
Bang, Zhang Dabeard hung up the phone.
Yu Min has always been a director who doesn't talk much, and when he looked at Zhang Dabeard blowing his beard and glaring, he asked, "Outside, do you want to come forward to explain?" ”
Zhang Dabeard took a sip of water, and his breath was much smoother.
Or he wasn't very angry at all, he has been in the industry for decades, has participated in dozens of crews, and has never seen any winds and waves. If you get angry over a little thing, you will be angry to death.
He might just be making an angry gesture.
After thinking about it, Zhang Dabeard asked rhetorically: "Zhang Tan also spoke in the newspaper over there, right?" ”
"Well, I scolded Liu Changshan and the three of them."
Zhang Dabeard touched his beard, but laughed instead: "In this way, it's actually not a bad thing, right?" You hand this matter over to Xiao Zhu, who is in charge of publicity, and ask him not to be too impatient, and make a statement, just saying that the relationship between the screenwriter and the author is very good, and the media is all nonsense, so deal with the past first. ”
Zhang is a bearded person, an old bird in the entertainment industry.
For him, he is not afraid of something in the crew, he is afraid that he can make trouble if he has nothing to do.
So Zhang's bearded studio quickly issued a statement.
"Recently, some media reported that there are contradictions in the screenwriting work of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", in this regard, Zhang Dabeard Studio clarified that Tan Zhang, the original author of the novel, and the screenwriter team are still busy working hard to complete and improve the script, and the preparation progress of the crew is very smooth, please don't mistakenly believe the rumors."
……
Zhang Dabeard is firmly in the Diaoyutai.
didn't take the conflict between the screenwriter and Zhang Tan as a big deal.
In his opinion, this is why the screenwriters are unhappy with Zhang Tan's young man, and they are angry for a while. When the anger subsided, several screenwriters apologized in private, Zhang Tan's face was okay, wouldn't everything be able to return to calm. Zhang Dabeard didn't believe that Liu Changshan and a few people were the kind of people who really had backbone, and sooner or later they would have to give in.
Each side takes a step back, and the sea and the sky are wide.
Now it's going to be troublesome, it doesn't affect the overall situation, after all, the crew hasn't prepared yet, the script can be slowly rectified, and the popularity of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" can be hyped, what a good thing.
A drama must be hyped up before it is broadcast, this is Zhang Dabeard's unswerving concept.
It's just that the development of things seems to have begun to deviate.
No one takes the statement of Zhang Dabeard's studio seriously, and reporters are still copying this screenwriting incident.
After Zhang Tan counterattacked, the momentum of public opinion, which was originally mostly accusing Zhang Tan, turned around and accused the screenwriters of not being able to tolerate other people's opinions.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Liu Changshan went to the newspaper again to make nonsense.
He avoided stipulating Zhang Tan's authority in the contract, and instead emphatically stated: "For an author who has never experienced anything, it is very dangerous to meddle in the writing of the script casually." Today's young people have gained a little ability, and they get carried away, thinking how great they are, and thinking that others are inferior to him. If this phenomenon is not eradicated, the screenwriting industry will be in danger, and it will be difficult to produce good films in the future. ”
The war has risen from the contradiction between several screenwriters and Zhang Tan to the overall height of the industry.
Not to mention. Liu Changshan said this, which immediately aroused the approval of the bigwigs in the screenwriting circle.
First-class screenwriter in China. Cao Weitai, who has cooperated with the fifth generation of directors and won foreign awards. told reporters: "Respect for the screenwriter is respect for the story, the screenwriter is the teller of the story, if a person doesn't even respect the story, don't you think he has a problem?" I haven't watched "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", I'm just talking about things. ”
Cao Weitai is undoubtedly a big name among screenwriters.
He was very active in the 80s and 90s, wrote many works that reflected the darkness of society, and also adapted the works of several great writers.
His speech. undoubtedly pointed the finger at Zhang Tan again.
If Cao Weitai is just supporting the screenwriter and speaking, then a screenwriter boss behind him is very unkind.
Wang Wenwu, a famous screenwriter and planner who has planned many works for the fifth generation of directors and participated in the screenwriting of the first domestic commercial blockbuster "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin" last year, said: "Now society is becoming more and more impetuous, always hyping up young geniuses to attract attention, these teenagers who have not even read books well will only pollute the environment more seriously." ”
The two screenwriters spoke and set off a huge wave in the media.
It caused countless verbal battles.
In forums such as Tianya, Under the Banyan Tree, Xici Hutong, and Maopu, fierce debates can be seen everywhere. On the one hand, he is a popular martial arts master and a representative of post-80s literature. On one side is the screenwriter boss, each with countless supporters, and the topic is noisy. Seeing that this topic is so concerned, the media naturally worked harder to join in the fun.
Only the two bigwigs spoke. Obviously not powerful enough.
So reporters asked celebrities and celebrities what they thought about this matter.
Zheng Yintian, a fourth-generation veteran director, said: "It is normal for young people to be arrogant, and when he matures, he may not do so." ”
Zhou Chao, a professor of humanities at Beiqi University, said disdainfully: "Martial arts novels are a kind of popular script. The literary content is very low, what is this "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". I didn't waste time reading it, so I don't want to comment on this matter. ”
Li Qiru, a professor at Renmin University, retorted: "Some people have too deep prejudices about martial arts. Not to mention that martial arts are inherited from the Qin and Han Dynasty legends, Tang and Song legends, and the Ming and Qing dynasties, with a long history, just to say that Tan Zhang advocated the heroic culture in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which can be said to be a precedent, and its artistic content is by no means inferior to traditional novels. ”
Zhang Sanyuan, an underground director, or the sixth generation director, was praised by Time magazine as one of the world's 100 young leaders in the 21st century, told reporters: "I am most disgusted by touting martial arts novels as a flower, how did the violence come about, and it is not affected by these things." And when you write a novel, you write a novel, and you have to meddle in making a film, so you really think of yourself as a character. ”
There are also many celebrities who have expressed their opinions.
Most of them are aimed at Zhang Tan, and I have to say that Liu Changshan and others have successfully won the sympathy of the industry.
These people either reprimand Zhang Tan for not respecting the screenwriter's creation, or belittling the harmfulness of martial arts novels, or thinking that Zhang Tan is too young and crazy, and there is always a reason to find a place to criticize Zhang Tan.
And Zhang Tan, who is basically in a low-key state, has unwittingly become the center of the whirlpool of public opinion.
……
"Did I turn on the mockery aura or what's wrong, just recruiting people like this?"
With anger and speechlessness, Zhang Tan set off for Guangzhou, and the third session of the book signing session was held in Guangzhou Bowang Book City. Although he was not in a very good mood, after arriving at the book signing site, he saw that there were about thousands of people queuing up at the entrance of Bowang Book City to sign autographs, and Zhang Tan showed a bright smile again.
Not to be envied is mediocrity.
The novels he wrote sold tens of millions of copies, whether it was the four famous catchers or the eagle shooting, they all had commendable results. It is enviable and jealous, and there will naturally be a lot of people who look at him if he is not pleasing to the eye. I didn't find a place to be black before, but now I have found an opportunity, and I can't fight hard to be black, and I can't form a group black.
However, Zhang Tan looked at the still hot book signing scene, and knew that he was already invincible.
Get out of the car, wave your hand, and say hello to the readers.
At this time, a number of reporters who were ambushed on the side also rushed over.
"Tan Zhang, how do you plan to respond to the recent bombardment of you by many screenwriters?"
"Tan Zhang, Wang Wenwu thinks that you haven't even read the book well, so you shouldn't meddle in the script, do you agree?"
"Director Zheng Yintian criticized you for being arrogant, Tan Zhang, what do you think?"
"Tan Zhang ......" (To be continued.) )
