At the end of the original novel, Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou reunited on Hong Kong Island, reviewed each other's lives in the bathhouse, and finally said goodbye sadly. ”

But the scene in the play changed: after the two performed the last drama in their lives in a dilapidated theater, Cheng Dieyi finally realized that she was not a female Jiao'e, and then drew her sword and killed herself, leaving a poignant afterimage. ”

"Classic!"

Ning Yuan could see the other party's enthusiasm from Han Cheng's expression, this state was the same as hearing the master's dubbing, it was very cool.

"So Director Chen Da, who left a good screenwriter, felt floating after "Farewell My Concubine", and frequently interfered in script creation, did almost every movie have the title of screenwriter?"

But the problem is that he is a person who can't write scripts at all, and in the end he can only make masterpieces such as "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin" and "Wuji", all kinds of indulgence in philosophical speculation, and even the most basic plot line is incomplete. ”

"Are you kidding?"

Ning Yuan couldn't help laughing, no wonder some people on the Internet often question that Chen Kaige is a director who has no editorial thinking, it turns out that his roots are here?

"In my opinion, the first decade of the new century is the most glorious decade for domestic TV dramas. ”

Han Cheng sighed: "Military dramas include "Bright Sword" and "Soldier Assault"; period dramas include "Breaking through the Guandong"; local dramas include "Liu Laogen" and "Country Love"; urban life dramas include "Daughter-in-law's Beautiful Life" and "Snail House"; spy war dramas include "Before Dawn" and "Latent" ......"

"It's all because of one principle: slow work makes good work!"

Ning Yuan remembered that he had read a report, which seemed to say that the screenwriter Lan Xiaolong had lived in the Comrades-in-Arms Repertory Troupe for many years before writing works like "Soldier Assault" and "My Regiment Leader, My Regiment"?

"The original good state was rampaged by a group of stupid capital, you look at what demons and monsters are there now!"

Han Cheng suddenly became angry, and his tone was full of disdain: "In 09, Huayi Brothers was officially listed on A-shares, and the stock price soared by 221% on the first day, and the three star shareholders Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Jizhong and Huang Xiaoming became billionaires. ”

"Open Pandora's box directly, a large number of hot money and stupid money flock in, and the film and television industry is no longer just a toy for real estate developers, but also a ...... engaged in IT, tourism, slaughtering, and e-commerce."

"As long as you have money, you can have a good time!"

Ning Yuan couldn't help but sigh, there were no eggs under the nest, wasn't the dubbing like this?

"Do you know what it was at its peak?" Han Cheng mocked: "In 15 years, as long as you can make up 60 minutes of the film, you will definitely make money!"

"What actors, writers, and hosts are all ready to move, and they are all kinds of transformations to become directors and screenwriters. ”

"Look at Guo Xiaosi, the head of youth pain, and Han Han, an angry youth in the early days of the Internet, ......"

"There is also Mr. He, a good old man in the entertainment industry, and Princess Yi, my sister who rides the wind and waves......"

"What's special is that even Guo Meimei, who focuses on showing off her wealth, heard that she was tinkering with the script at home before she was caught!"

Ning Yuan was drunk after hearing this, and sure enough, he responded to that sentence: When there is an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

What is a bad movie?

The magic is that you can't tell who plays a key role in the director, the writer and the actors.

Han Cheng drank all the water, his anger seemed to have calmed down, and he looked at Ning Yuan and said, "Whether we screenwriters can write a good book depends on our ability, but now even if we write a work that becomes popular overnight, what can we do?"

"Lu Wei participated in the script creation of the movie "Red Cherry", and finally hit a box office of 40 million yuan, but as one of the screenwriters, he didn't receive a penny in the next 20 years?"

"Even the great gods will encounter the problem of unpaid wages, and we newcomers ...... nothing"

"Hey!"

Ning Yuan finally understood why the screenwriter was worse than the dubbing, the dubbing was at least cash money, and there was a little income, but the screenwriter ......

"To put it bluntly, the market is too chaotic, and there are a lot of film and television works that seem to be approved every year, but they can really be recorded, and the works that enter the shooting are one out of a hundred. ”

"I heard that there are conservative estimates of more than 140,000 professional screenwriters in China, but only 3% of the scripts can be filmed every year. ”

"Last year, more than sixty percent of screenwriters did not release original works, and more than eighty percent of screenwriters did not release online movies. ”

Han Cheng said dejectedly: "Many screenwriters can only live on a deposit, and what they get when signing a contract may be all, accounting for only 5%~10% of the script investment." ”

"So I can only go around begging grandpa to sue grandma to be a ...... for others"

"Gunslinger!"

Ning Yuan was speechless, not being able to get the money was just one of the problems, and there were few things that the screenwriter had torn apart in the past two years?

Even if the project goes smoothly and the screenwriter can get the full screenwriting fee, when the film and television drama is released, the right of authorship is the fuse.

After all, the right of authorship is directly related to a screenwriter's influence and salary in the industry, and it can also be seen that a director and producer respect the screenwriter.

In a humane society, it is more like a ceremony to bestow a seat?

After listening to Ning Yuan's question, Han Cheng smiled and said, "Authorship?"

"Brother, don't think too much!"

Xiaobai, who has just entered the industry, doesn't understand these routines at all, and even if he does, because he has no bargaining power and right to speak, he can only sign the overlord contract. Many rookie screenwriters die before they get out of school, and they work hard for several years, and in the end they don't even have a name. ”

"I've been deceived twice into drafting, and now as long as I can give money, it doesn't matter anything!"

Ning Yuan frowned, this voice is indeed more advantageous than words, after all, everyone's voice is recognizable, and it can even be used as evidence in court.

"It's good to be owed manuscript fees now, but there is still hope for you. ”

Han Cheng complained: "For a qualified TV series, the script creation cycle takes at least eight months to a year, and some even take up to two or three years. ”

"If you really have requirements for yourself, you have to prepare for at least two years in the early stage, do a lot of character interviews, interviews and surveys in the industry, collect and sort out materials, etc., and then you can enter the real writing process. ”

"The final draft of an episode is 15,000-20,000 words, and a play has to write thirty or forty episodes, and there are basically seven or eight revisions in the whole process. ”

"For the poor and white, what to live on in the past few years is the biggest problem. ”

Ning Yuan remembered that he had read a report that a senior executive of Ali Pictures was ashamed to explain a set of psychology of buying tickets.

As long as you have the three conditions of "big IP", "star lineup" and "movie concept", nearly ninety percent of young audiences will pay for your box office.

casually find an online work that already has a mass base in the market, and entrust an experienced professional screenwriter to adapt it, and capital can hype these novels that may not have film and television value into hot sweets.

As for the screenwriters?

It's just a codeword machine!
