Chapter 720: Something is wrong with the tree roots
The TV series's creative team is flawless and their work is top-notch.
Whether it is the actors, costumes, or even the scene settings, they are all pursued in the direction of excellence.
As a result, the original author of the work was found to have made inappropriate remarks such as discrimination against women and stance issues.
From the original author himself to his works, all have been nailed to the pillar of shame.
The TV series, which had cost hundreds of millions of dollars and was originally scheduled to be broadcast on satellite TV, was forced to be broadcast online.
As a result, the release date for the online broadcast was delayed again and again.
A drama has been delayed for six years and still cannot be aired. The original production company was directly dragged down by the funds invested in the drama, the funding chain was broken, and the company declared bankruptcy.
There were also some small companies that originally wanted to get a piece of the action, but when the show was dragged down to the second year, they were either acquired by other companies or went bankrupt.
Zhao Fengya immediately understood what Yu Jingjing meant. He frowned, a little bit unbelieving, "Li Mou is like a fox, how could he not know about this?"
“You know.” Yu Whale thought about it.
The author of "Chishui" is very smart and has not made such remarks on domestic social networking sites, and even often publishes patriotic content.
But she has two secondary accounts on foreign social networking sites.
One is a small account that is well known to the public, and the content is almost the same as that of the domestic account.
The other type does not disclose personal information, but often slanders the country on foreign social networking sites.
We even went to the Neon Shrine, which the Flower Country has always disliked.
Not only did he go in, he actually paid his respects there, and the text on that post expressed his respect for those enshrined in the shrine.
When Yu Jingjing saw it, he decisively deleted "Chishui" from the list of IPs to be purchased, and the same went for other works by that author.
She had not examined the less famous author in such detail.
Only for works that require a large sum of money to purchase the copyright will Yu Whale find out the basic information about the author out of risk considerations.
"Then he still wants to shoot?" Zhao Fengya, apart from other things, does have this sensitivity.
The author's position is problematic.
The author!
That's not screenwriting or anything.
A TV series' screenwriter is usually not the same person. If something goes wrong with a screenwriter, the crew and the company can simply decide not to cooperate with that screenwriter, and all the content he/she handled will be modified.
But scriptwriting is all done behind the scenes, and the script won’t indicate which part was written by which scriptwriter.
Especially a novel adaptation like this one.
Based on the original novel, there is not much that the screenwriter can modify. After all, the main trunk is still there, and they can only prune the branches.
Whether the trimming is good or not depends on whether the audience likes it.
But if there is a problem with the author, it is equivalent to a problem with the root of the tree.
As for issues like plagiarism, the producers and crew aren't really that worried.
The Flower Country does not have a completely clear concept of plagiarism, and the copyright protection is not strong.
Even if it is really plagiarized, as long as it is broadcast before the matter becomes a big deal or the popularity of the topic is suppressed, no one cares.
As long as the show is good, we can hire a few actors with high likability.
The audience doesn't care who plagiarized whom.
But the question of stance… this is of a completely different nature.
"Maybe I'm not afraid at all!" Yu Jingjing shrugged. She really believed that Li Mou thought so.
