["Young You": How beautiful it is, and how evil it may be]

[The image antidote in the digital age, what is the root cause behind the violence of minors?] 】

[The complex beauty of "Young You", because growing up itself is complicated]

[Tribute or plagiarism?] The premiere of "Young You" was criticized for plagiarizing Keigo Higashino's works? 】

[The box office broke 300 million in three days after its release, and behind the successful explosion is naked plagiarism and melting! ] 】

After the premiere was held, "Young You" premiered nationwide on August 3.

On the day of the premiere, "Young You" quickly appeared on Weibo's hot search, and the box office results were overwhelming.

The box office on the first day was 88 million, 120 million on the second day, and more than 100 million on the third day!

"Young You" is on fire, and it's a big hit!

But with the explosion of this movie, a lot of doubts and criticisms also came.

On the second day of the movie's performance, a group of so-called marketing accounts boldly spoke out on Weibo and other social platforms: "Young You" is suspected of plagiarism and stalks!

Driven by them, many fans who have not watched the two works of Keigo Higashino, "White Night Walking" and "The Dedication of Suspect X", feel that part of the plot story of "Young You" is stitched together from the stories of these two parts.

This situation made the Light and Shadow Era and even Li Yang, Wu Yuan and others a little depressed.

Is "Young You" really plagiarism, borrowing, quoting or paying tribute?

Of course not!

If you have to say it, I can only say that the protagonists of "Young You" and "White Night Walking" are somewhat similar.

are all stories of a man and a woman, two male and female protagonists redeeming each other, both underage, and all of them are because of an accident that caused a peaceful life to no longer be peaceful.

If you just look at a few high-traffic articles and compare them with a few table synopses, you may really be brought up the rhythm and think that this movie seems to be really plagiarized from Keigo Higashino.

But in fact, if you really read the original works of "White Night Walking" and "The Devotion of Suspect X", you will not think that it is plagiarized.

"Young You" and "White Night Walking" are only slightly similar in setting, but when you peel them off layer by layer, they are actually not too related.

Chen Nian and Xiaobei have a lot of conversations, Xiaobei is clearly protective of Chen Nian, Chen Nian is kind and innocent, and Xiaobei is a bad child.

And in "White Night Walking", Xue Sui has long lost her kind side in childhood and has become the "queen" who dies in her way, and Kirihara is her lifelong royal executioner, in it, they have not even intersected and talked, Xue Sui is in the daylight, and Kirihara is in the dark.

As for "The Devotion of Suspect X", the similarity is that the male protagonist covers up the truth of the murder in order to protect the female protagonist, and it is the same as the above, but the setting is similar, and if you look at it in other details, the two stories cannot coincide.

This is actually just the most basic character setting, which is somewhat similar.

This is something that is very difficult to avoid in literary creation.

This kind of "setting" thing is very common.

For example, "Inception" and "Red Hot Chili Peppers", "Black Swan" and "The House of the Unhemp", "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and "Dallas Buyers Club", "Detective Chinatown 2" and "Double Eyes", "Wushuang" and "Extraordinary Suspects", "Hero" and "Rashomon" and so on......

They all have some similarities in character settings, but the specific story core, plot plot, and character relationships are all different.

In fact, if "Young You" really involves plagiarism, it will not win the Best Actress, Best Picture, Best Director, Best Screenplay and other awards such as Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, and Golden Statue, let alone be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

This public opinion accusing "Young You" of plagiarizing Keigo Higashino is completely deliberately smeared by people with intentions.

People who have really seen Keigo Higashino and have independent judgment thinking can only be regarded as a minority of the few in the online world.

The Internet is a big dye vat, and opinions and attitudes are all other people's.

Most of the netizens who surf the Internet are all in the same cloud, and it is easy to be led by the rhythm and become a consumable tool for making public opinion.

It's just that under the rhythm of some marketing accounts, the topic of suspected plagiarism of "Young You" has rushed to the forefront of Weibo's hot search, and a large number of netizens who have neither watched "Young You" nor Keigo Higashino are "supporting" Keigo Higashino, abusing and criticizing the movie "Young You".

They seem to have deliberately ignored that the script of this movie was written by Wu Yuan, did not directly scold Wu Yuan, and did not mention the word "Wu Yuan" at all, but focused on scolding the movie "Young You", and scolded the light and shadow era as the industry boss and took the lead in plagiarism.

It is very strange that the light and shadow era is already one of the shareholders of Sina Weibo, but this time the light and shadow era does not seem to have any reaction, whether it is to withdraw the hot search, or to suppress the heat, this means of controlling the fermentation of public opinion has not moved at all, and completely let the actions of the bosses behind those marketing accounts go.

It's just that when netizens who were toyed with and coerced poured into the official blog of the Light and Shadow Era, planning to fight for "justice", using the keyboard to bring justice to Keigo Higashino, and thinking that he was the vanguard of anti-plagiarism.

On the official Weibo of the Light and Shadow Era, the latest Weibo has been updated, which is still a video blog post.

In the video, the well-known Japanese writer Keigo Higashino appeared in the center of the camera and said with a smile: ""Young You" is very good, it is a great movie, and the problem of school violence is also a very troublesome problem in Japan. ”

"Director Wu Yuan's script is very well written, I like it very much, and if I have the opportunity, I would like to meet with Director Wu Yuan to talk about everything about literary creation."

"When "Young You" is released in Japan, I will definitely be there to support it!"

Keigo Higashino didn't talk about any plagiarism or not, but his attitude says it all.

No need to ask, of course, this video was recorded by Wu Yuan early in time with the help of his partner in Japan to find Keigo Higashino.

Of course, he knows what kind of public opinion attacks he will encounter after the release of "Young You", and for the sake of his reputation and the box office results of this movie, Wu Yuan will of course take precautions in advance.

In fact, after watching the finished film of "Young You", Keigo Higashino did not think that this movie was plagiarizing his work, and real cultural people can naturally see the difference between plagiarism and the same setting.

The core and plot of these two stories are completely different, and the idea of the story is also different.

After watching the movie, Keigo Higashino also asked the representative of the Japanese side with great emotion when the film would be introduced to Japanese theaters and released.

For the serious and heavy topic of school violence, Japan also needs the baptism of film works.

It's not just Japan.

South Korea, even more actively than Japan, came to the door, seeking to introduce the release of "Young You"! (End of chapter)
