135 Framing and Slandering
Fu Song looked at Yu Shan: "Which movie is similar to that of our Hollywood movie? Let me see it."
Unexpectedly, Yu Shan said: "The Hollywood movie has not been made yet."
"Have you not taken it yet?" Fu Song was stunned. "How did they determine that we copied it if we didn't take it out?"
Yu Shan: "Didn't "Lost in the Road" win the award? It just so happened that the Oscars are also rated for the Best Screenwriter Award.
So the Writers Association selected several of the best movies to participate in the selection.
As an international award, being able to win Oscars is very beneficial to promoting our country's culture.
The Writers Association contacted the Jiang family girl, and the Jiang family girl also asked me for my opinion.
When you were not here, I asked her to run directly, but I didn't expect..."
Fu Song looked at the Weibo post: "Since the other party has not even made a movie, is it a bit far-fetched to say that we are copying it?
And if I remember correctly, whether it is the awards from the Writers Association or the Oscars.
As long as the movie is not released, the organizer must keep the plot in the script confidential, right?
But the film crew of "Training the Dragon" lists the details of our movie. If this affects the box office, who will be the losses?"
"This..." Yu Shan wiped his forehead and sweated coldly. He patted the other party and said that he had copied the matter, but ignored this detail.
"I'll contact the Writers Association now and ask what's going on?"
Fu Song nodded: "Not only do you have to ask, but you also need to figure out the situation of the Hollywood screenwriter.
The plot of the road film is similar in some places, and it is not impossible to happen. After all, art comes from life!
Everyone gets inspiration from the plane. As long as the similarity is not particularly high, it cannot be considered plagiarism.
Both Newton and Leibniz invented calculus. Is it because Newton proposed it a few months ago that Leibniz copied it?
The two of them are thousands of miles apart!"
Yu Shan: "Okay, I'll ask now."
After Yu Shan left, Fu Song frowned.
In fact, "Lost in the Road" before time traveling is indeed somewhat similar to a Western highway film called "True Love".
But when Fu Song took out "Lost in the Road", he specifically checked the information.
There is no "True Love in the Fall" in this world, and even if it does, the other party cannot directly sue himself for infringement. At most it is a shameless reference.
Because "Lost in the Road" and "True Love" are already two relatively independent stories.
As a result, I suddenly made a plagiarism, which is quite outrageous.
At this time, the knock on the door sounded, it was the Jiang family girl.
Looking at the other party's depressed look, Fu Song smiled and said, "Is it because of "The Dragon Taming" suing us for infringement?
Don't worry, there must be misunderstandings in this, leave it to me, just be careful to do your own business."
The Jiang family's eyes suddenly turned red: "Mr. Fu, I'm sorry.
The screenwriter is John Martin, and he was my mentor when I was studying in a beautiful country."
Fu Song was stunned: "Teacher?"
"Yes, because "Lost in the Road" is a road film in some ways, there are not many movies available for reference in this type of film.
Professor John Martin is the founder of road films and has extremely rich experience in this area.
In order to ensure the quality of the script, I sent him a private message and asked him about various questions.
But I didn't expect..."
Fu Song was silent, and finally, he asked, "What did that John Martin say?"
"This...I haven't asked him yet."
Fu Song: "Now you send him an email and ask what the situation is."
"But what if he doesn't admit it?"
Fu Song said: "The email you consulted with him should be still there, right? As long as there is email as evidence, you are not afraid that he will not admit it."
The girl from the Jiang family lit up: "Oh, I almost forgot to record this in the email. Wait, I'll ask now."
As she said that, she turned on the computer and started editing the information.
Soon, the other party replied, the girl from the Jiang family opened the file and read it, and was so blank that she didn't know what to say.
Fu Song: "What's wrong?"
The Jiang family goddess said with a strange look: "Mr. Fu, Mr. John Martin, said that he didn't know about this at all.
When I told him your creativity, he was really inspired and wrote a script.
But his script and "Lost in the Road" are actually two different stories.
Not only are the narrative styles completely different, but the order of the two protagonists riding on transportation is also completely different.
Moreover, at the end of the script, Mr. John made a special statement that he was inspired by an Oriental friend.”
Fu Song was silent for a moment: "So, from the beginning to the end, the film crew of "Training the Dragon" was making trouble?"
The girl from the Jiang family nodded: "It should be so. Teacher John also said that he deeply apologized for the trouble this incident caused to us.
If necessary, he can speak up on his Twitter at any time."
At this time, Yu Shan also came back: "Mr. Fu, I found out clearly, everything is a misunderstanding.
The Writers Association questioned the Oscars official about this matter, and said that when "Lost in Thailand" competed with John Martin's "way down east" (all the way east),
As a result, because the content of our script does not conform to Western culture, we lost the election at a disadvantage in the final vote.
The publisher of "Training the Dragon" found that the storylines of the two scripts were very similar, so he used the excuse of plagiarism to discredit us.
The Oscars have officially identified that they believe that these are two completely different scripts and there is no plagiarism."
Fu Song nodded and also said the information he learned from the Jiang family's daughter.
Yu Shan slapped the table in anger: "It's too much to deceive others.
I'll post on Weibo now and explain the facts clearly.”
Fu Song said: "Wait, don't rush to explain."
Yu Shan was puzzled: "I don't rush to explain, why?"
"Because things are not big enough."
Fu Song smiled, "Do you know the real purpose of "Training the Dragon" to publish this post?"
"Real purpose?"
"Yes, they actually know that if they really want to pursue it, their reasons are untenable.
But the other party still did this, with only one purpose, popularity!
As the world's first 3D movie, "Training the Dragon" has unique advantages, but they do not have much confidence.
The main reason is the box office record of "I Am Not a God of Medicine".
With this record, as the same producer, "Lost in the Road" has no worse eye-catching ability than "Training the Dragon".
What's more, we also won the gold medal in the movie script competition."
Yu Shan nodded. He had done market research.
Although the world's first 3D movie is more eye-catching, "Lost in the Road" is not as weak as expected.
"Mr. Fu, what do you mean?"
Fu Song smiled and said, "It's very simple. "Training the Dragon" wants popularity, and we also want popularity.
Rather than doing this, it is better to make things bigger.
In this way, didn’t the other party say we were plagiarizing? We also accused them of plagiarism.
As for what to copy...taught a dragon..., then copy "Shan Hai Jing"."
Yu Shan was surprised and said, "Shan Hai Jing?"
Fu Song whispered: "Yes, you are like this..."
Chapter completed!
