As soon as this new Weibo account came out, it immediately attracted the attention of netizens. Of course, there were also many doubts.
Ex-wife?
Is this true or false? Isn't he just taking advantage of the opportunity to gain popularity?
However, Song Fangmei seemed to have anticipated such suspicions.
Before posting the long Weibo post, she attached a past photo, a discarded marriage certificate, and a divorce photo.
These were the things she originally posted on her Moments to celebrate her new life and to warn herself to stay away from scumbags. She didn't expect that five years later, they would come in handy in such a way.
Although Shen Yanda is not a star, he is a well-known screenwriter.
As soon as the photo evidence came out, no netizen questioned Song Fangmei's identity as her "ex-wife" anymore.
The number of fans on Weibo was increasing rapidly. Song Fangmei was very quick and efficient and sent the long text and picture that she had edited long ago.
There are a lot of words, the content is very long, and the amount of information is also huge.
It turned out that Song Fangmei and Shen Yanda were classmates in junior high school and were admitted to the same university. By chance, the two fell in love and got married.
Song Fangmei loves writing. She spent four years in college writing an original script, and Shen Yanda was her only reader at that time.
After reading the script, Shen Yanda tried many times to persuade Song Fangmei to submit her work, but the latter felt that screenwriting was not a stable career and just wanted to keep writing as a passion.
Less than a year after their marriage, Shen Yanda lost all his family fortune due to a failed investment. Although Song Fangmei was angry, she did not blame her husband too much.
I just thought that they were still young and could fight again.
Unexpectedly, one day Shen Yanda suddenly said happily that he made money! I earned 1.5 million from the copyrights sold!
Song Fangmei was shocked when she heard this. Where did the copyright fees come from?
After her repeated questioning, Shen Yanda finally told her the truth.
He secretly took a script that Song Fangmei had written during college and submitted it to a film and television company. Fearing that his wife would disagree and find it troublesome, he deliberately changed the signature of the script to his own.
I originally wanted to give it a try, but I didn't expect that the film and television company was particularly optimistic about this script. The two sides negotiated for nearly half a month before reaching the final price.
If the show performs well after broadcast, you can get extra share of the viewership.
When Song Fangmei learned about this, she was angry that her husband had taken her script without permission. On the other hand, she was glad that her writing could really make money and enrich her family.
After this incident, Shen Yanda coaxed her for a long time and handed over all the copyright fees he had earned.
"Wife, female screenwriters are often at a disadvantage in the industry. I'm just speaking up for you. The work is still yours, and the money you earn is also yours. Besides, we should work together as a couple to live a good life, right?"
Thinking about it now, what Shen Yanda said was complete nonsense, but to Song Fangmei at the time, it did make sense.
They are husband and wife, why should we distinguish between yours and mine? She can spend the money she earns.
Later, less than a year later, the TV series based on this script was broadcast. It was the "Legend of Yin Yue" that was popular all over the country at that time.
This drama opened a new era in the history of palace fighting in China.
It not only made the actors famous, but also made the 'original screenwriter' Shen Yanda famous.
The huge dividends from the TV series fell into Shen Yanda's pocket, and he began to be dissatisfied with just this one work.
Coincidentally, Song Fangmei, who had just given birth to a child at home, wrote the script of "Exquisite Bones".
History always repeats itself surprisingly well.
Shen Yanda sold the script again, but this time he got Song Fangmei's consent. Because they need to earn money for milk powder for their children, by using the already popular Shen Yanda's signature, they can get higher copyright fees for the script.
After the broadcast of "Exquisite Bone", it directly surpassed the ratings achievement of "Legend of Yin Yue", and Shen Yanda directly became the big screenwriter of palace fighting themes.
In the following years, one of the couple was responsible for external communication while the other was responsible for domestic creation. Both "Yue Jun" and "Feng Lan" have achieved good results in costume TV dramas.
Occasionally, Shen Yanda would bring Song Fangmei to some public occasions.
In his words, it doesn't matter if others don't know, I know my wife is the best screenwriter.
Shen Yanda obviously knew that only by pleasing his wife could he convince her to write more works.
But in the face of power and desire, people always change.
Shen Yanda cheated on his wife, and the mistress was an assistant in the studio. The two of them did all kinds of dirty things under Song Fangmei's nose.
After the truth was revealed, Shen Yanda knelt down and begged for mercy, and also quarreled angrily, and the relationship between the couple reached a freezing point.
Their son didn't know the truth and was always proud of his 'screenwriter dad'. He also studied hard because he admired his father.
Therefore, negotiating a divorce and keeping the issue of the script's authorship secret were the last bits of dignity that Song Fangmei gave to this marital relationship.
Song Fangmei knew that it was foolish of her to do this, and she felt even more ashamed for those palace fighting heroines she had created who dared to love and hate.
But she was born gentle and destined not to be able to shout and make a scene like a shrew, making the affairs between husband and wife known to the world.
Over the past five years, Song Fangmei has been traveling around the world to broaden her horizons and to get over her failed marriage.
It was not until seven or eight months ago that someone contacted her and told her that Shen Yanda had returned after five years.
Song Fangmei was very surprised. She knew Shen Yanda's literary level. How could he write the script himself?
Therefore, Song Fangmei has been secretly following the production of "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" from its filming to its broadcast.
The core plot of the revenge between the brother and sister in the script was actually also her idea back then, but before she could finish it, the couple divorced.
Then, this morning, accusations of plot plagiarism broke out.
…
After reading this long and big piece of news, netizens were so shocked that they could fit an egg in their mouths.
——What the hell? Is this true or false? It turns out that the works that Shen Yanda is proud of were not written by himself?
——It’s true that she is Teacher Shen’s ex-wife, but it’s too arbitrary to make a conclusion based on just a small essay! Why didn’t you stand up earlier or later, but chose to speak out at this time? I still think it’s fake?
——Teacher Song, do you have any other evidence? I will beat you, Shen Yanda, this hypocrite who deceives the world and steals the reputation, to death in one breath!
——The ex-wife also comes out to take advantage of the popularity? Teacher Shen is so miserable.
——It’s a pity for a plagiarist! How could someone like Shen Yanda still have supporters?
In fact, the reason why Song Fangmei stood up now is largely because of her son.
Some time ago, Song Fangmei confessed the truth of the past to her son who was already in college, and it was he who encouraged her to be herself again.
No woman should sacrifice herself for her children. She should take back the wonderful life that belongs to her!
Before the netizens in the comment section could decide who was the winner, Song Fangmei posted another video on Weibo, "This is a recording of a conversation before the divorce. You can tell the time on the screen. Whether it's true or not is in people's minds."
Clicking on the properties of the audio file, you can see that it was created five years ago.
"Shen Yanda, the fame, wealth and status you have now, which one of them was not obtained by me? You..."
"What do you mean by 'I'? Yes, these scripts are all yours, but who would know? If you go out and make a scene now, who would believe you?"
"Fang Mei, let's part ways amicably! I'll give you money, take as much as you want."
"I advise you not to say anything else. Keep some affection between husband and wife so that you can meet in front of your son in the future. Otherwise, do you think your son trusts me, a respected father, more, or you, a housewife, more?"
"Okay, let's get a divorce. Without me, I don't know what kind of script you can come up with to decorate your false status!"
"You don't need to worry about it. There are so many high-quality novels that have been buried these days. If you piece them together, you can have some content."
"The audience watched the movie because of my name 'Shen Yanda'. If I invited a few more popular actors, they could just blindly praise the script regardless of whether it was good or bad."
…
The audio of the hammer is quite clear.
Shen Yanda’s voice was very obvious, and that arrogant and complacent tone made people feel sick just by listening to it.
Once the content of the conversation between the two was revealed, public opinion overwhelmingly suppressed it.
Good job!
What kind of garbage is this?
Stealing your ex-wife’s original work to help yourself earn money and status? After divorcing his wife because of his mistress, he started to think about writing online novels?
——I’m going to vomit! So ordinary yet so confident!
——Let me see who else speaks for Shen Yanda? Look at the shitty things Shen Yanda did after he 're-emerged', and then look at Teacher Song's clear statement, the truth is clear at a glance, right?
——Hello, Teacher Song! Forgive me for only knowing about you now, your script works are really great! The plot of each episode is very exciting! I hope you can regain your love for words and continue writing!
——@Chen Yanda, you stole someone else's life in the name of your husband, don't you feel disgusted? Don't you feel ashamed for stealing other authors' painstaking work?
——Shen Yanda, come out and apologize!
The front row of comments was occupied by supporters, but there was still a small number of 'questioning' comments mixed in with the real-time comment area.
The topic of #Chen Yanda plagiarized# had not yet come to an end, and the topic of #Chen Yanda’s ex-wife Song Fangmei# came up right after.
Shen Yanda was sitting uncomfortably in the office. He obviously didn't expect that Song Fangmei, who had been quiet and low-key for so many years, would suddenly stand up and expose him.
What he didn't expect was that the other party still had the audio from so long ago?
Song Fangmei had blocked their phone calls and WeChat accounts, and their son didn’t answer the call either.
Is this a sincere attempt to bring him down? This bitch!
The more Shen Yanda thought about it, the angrier he became. He picked up the ashtray and smashed it directly to the ground. His anxiety turned into anger.
Qian Yiren, who was standing next to her, was startled and asked, "What are you doing?"
The mistress assistant revealed by Song Fangmei was her.
At this moment, she felt so embarrassed that she didn't even dare to go downstairs to the office lobby.
Could it be that Shen Yanda had been lying to her from the beginning? Do you write all the scripts yourself?
Pooh!
A shameless and incompetent old man.
Now that his plagiarism has been discovered, it's bad enough that he's in trouble, but his ex-wife suddenly shows up and gets implicated as well!
"If you ask me, you should just close this studio. You didn't even let your employees take a few days off during the holidays, and now something like this has happened. I guess they are all planning to quit."
"Shut up! Did I ask you to speak?" Shen Yanda yelled.
"You..." Qian Yiren's face changed and she hurried away in her high heels.
The next second, the producer Sun Changjiang sent a link and asked anxiously.
"Teacher Shen, look at the girl who broke the news on Weibo. Isn't she the assistant you brought here last night?"
When Shen Yanda caught a glimpse of this line of text, he suddenly felt uneasy. He quickly clicked on the link. The other party's name was 'Jiabao should work hard'.
Just half an hour ago, this blogger published a complaint with the topic #沈严达职场性骇harassment#——
"Hello everyone, my name is Lin Jia, and until last night, I have been working for 'Shen Yanda' as his intern assistant.
Over the past half month, Shen Yanda has been using his "convenience at work" to harass me verbally and physically.
When he took me to a drinking party last night, he tried to touch my private parts under the influence of alcohol. I couldn't stand it anymore and chose to leave!
In addition, Sun Changjiang, the producer of "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty", teamed up with Shen Yanda to maliciously purchase Internet trolls to destroy the online ratings of the peer-reviewed film "The Detective".
Although there is not much evidence, I, Lin Jia, dare to stand up and report Shen Yanda by real name! If there is any suspicion of fabrication, I am willing to accept all legal responsibilities! ”
A graphic video was attached to this Weibo post.
The first one was Lin Jia's work ID card, and the rest were WeChat chat records, which contained overt and covert hints of "harassment".
I opened the Moments through the avatar and saw from the records of daily life that this was indeed Shen Yanda’s WeChat account.
…
His words are greasy, his mind is dirty, and he is completely different from the image of an 'open-minded and elegant gentleman' he presents to the public!
This revelation quickly triggered another wave of condemnation.
——It’s incredible. The year has just begun and the most disgusting person of the year has appeared.
——Miss, just be strong! come on! I trust you! At this point, it would be more appropriate for Shen Yanda to stop apologizing and just die.
——An equal share of those who hired internet trolls to discredit “The Young Detective”? This shitty competition makes me sick.
——"The Detective" is great! I am following both dramas, but I feel that the acting in "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" is still a little bit lacking. Now the plot has lost its filter, and I am planning to give up on the show!
——I’m so tired of eating this melon that I don’t even want to go visit relatives. Do you have any other melons? Release them all at once?
How do you say that? You reap what you sow!
These two issues have not yet been resolved publicly, and two screenwriters who originally worked at "Shen Yanda Studio" have also spoken out.
It turned out that before the TV series officially started filming, Shen Yanda's script was pointed out to have plagiarized plots.
However, Shen Yanda denied it openly, but privately asked them to modify the plot and fill in the loopholes with original new plots.
The more the two screenwriters read the script, the more ridiculous it seemed to them. In the end, they could not deceive their own hearts with money, so they chose to resign.
The two screenwriters behind the scenes could not resist Shen Yanda, but now the public has noticed this matter. So after discussing it, they decided to stand up and prove for those small authors——
The script of "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" was plagiarized! I just pieced together various dusty online novels and wrote this!
The plots currently being broadcast contain plagiarism, and the plots to be broadcast later are probably also plagiarized.
Script plagiarism? It’s hammered!
Workplace harassment? It’s also hammered!
Replacing the ex-wife’s work? It is most likely true!
Netizens who stayed at home during the Spring Festival obviously had a lot of free time to watch melons. In just one afternoon, the number of hot searches about Shen Yanda increased instead of decreasing.
The statement on the official Weibo of Shen Yanda and "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" has not been deleted yet. At this moment, it seems like a huge joke. If you listen carefully, you can even hear applause.
Netizens have been mocking these two Weibo posts one after another, and the insults are so wonderful that they can be strung together and found a publishing house to publish a book.
Amid such public outrage, voices of boycott against "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" also emerged.
At 7pm, a marketing account broke the news, "'The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty' is about to wrap up, but the actress who plays the female lead, Shi Meng, took a nanny car back to Haishi in the afternoon. She must have learned about the public opinion on the Internet and temporarily announced that she would stop acting."
Another behind-the-scenes staff member broke the news on a small account, saying, "The male lead of "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" was paid a low salary, which is not even as good as the average newcomers. In fact, it's not that the crew is stingy with their investment, but that Shen Yanda secretly swallowed the original lead actor's salary into his own pocket!"
Before one melon is settled, another one arises. Every melon is exciting and every melon is deadly.
This time, even the fans of the male and female protagonists who had always defended the crew couldn't hold it in anymore, and the depressed emotions that had been suppressed for a day completely erupted at this moment.
--grass! I feel sorry for the goddess! I worked hard for five months to shoot this drama, but ended up having to deal with such a crappy screenwriter!
——Shen Yanda, you have no heart! Do you really think the male lead has no fans? Yi Yi always thanks you, the screenwriter, in front of the camera, thanking you for giving him the opportunity! So this is how you tricked him?
More and more fans flocked to the statements of Shen Yanda and the official Weibo of the TV series, joining the battle of insults.
Shen Yanda was still pretending to be dead, but the crew officials obviously couldn't stand it anymore.
They no longer cared about whether to refute their statement or not. They first deleted their original solemn statement, and then posted a brief new Weibo post.
"We are contacting the parties involved to understand the situation. We will definitely give everyone a satisfactory answer. Please be patient and thank you for your understanding."
The crew's statement did not stop the anger of netizens.
Shen Yanda did something wrong, but you, the producers, are not innocent either!
Maliciously giving low scores to rival TV series? shameful!
From the producers to the screenwriters, they are all the same kind! I can only feel sorry for the actors, who were deceived into joining such a shameless crew.
The discussions among netizens did not stop, but the topic became wider and wider.
——I suddenly remembered something. Was Ji Li the male protagonist at the beginning of “The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty”?
——Yes, at that time, the producers accused Ji Li of signing the contract and then quitting the role. Shen Yanda took the lead in boycotting Ji Li, causing Ji Li to be scolded by many people during that period.
——Don’t mention the above. It hurts my heart when I think about it! We Jili were definitely framed by him!
——I really hope Ji Li can stand up, make the original inside story public, and slap Shen Yanda twice! This shameless thing.
…
Ji Li, who was staying at home, was paying attention to the direction of public opinion on the Internet. Seeing more and more comments like this, he sent a WeChat message to Baozi.
“Let the company’s official blog publish it.”
"Okay, Brother Ji." Baozi responded.
Qin Li came back with a plate of cut fruit and said helplessly, "You, you've been browsing Weibo on your phone all afternoon."
"It's quite interesting to watch melons with netizens." Ji Li held the mobile phone in one hand and rubbed the heads of Major General and Xue Bing repeatedly with the other hand.
Seeing this, Qin Li took the initiative to feed the cut orange pieces into his mouth, "How far have you eaten the melon?"
Ji Li ate the sweet orange and said, "At the beginning, Shen Yanda invited me to act instead of the more famous male actors in the TV circle. I thought it was very strange."
"Now that I've read the revelations, I finally understand that he deliberately picked out young actors who had just debuted not long ago, just to control the small economic team and have the opportunity to 'steal the film pay'."
I think it's because of Song Fangmei's departure. Without any new works, he has spent most of his money, so he resorted to this kind of petty theft.
It was just because the script was plagiarized that Ji Li avoided this messy crew.
Qin Li's eyes showed disgust.
At the beginning, Shen Yanda led some screenwriters to boycott Ji Li's account, and he still remembered it clearly.
"Baby, do you need my help?"
"No, he destroyed himself."
Ji Li logged into his Weibo account, his eyes gleaming, "The account from back then can finally be settled once and for all."
After that, he forwarded the latest Weibo post from Chaoying Culture and attached the following text:
@Chen Yanda, a person with a clear conscience is not afraid of his own shadow. How about you?
The content of the Weibo post was a six-minute recording of the conversation between the two parties, which was secretly recorded by Baozi when Ji Li took the script to Shen Yanda half a year ago.
Although recording the video privately was a bit unkind, he did it just in case.
Now that the time is ripe, there is no need for him to keep anything for Shen Yanda.
Baozi carefully added text to this recording, so the conversation between both parties is very clear.
"Teacher Shen, we found that the content of the script seemed familiar... even the dialogue was not deleted or modified."
"Are you implying that my script was plagiarized?"
"You want to use plagiarism to destroy my Shen Yanda's golden signboard. You have bad intentions!"
"Teacher Shen, you know who is right and who is wrong, as clearly as a mirror."
…
The six-minute recording is very long. Netizens listened to it patiently and all of them thought "as expected".
To put it simply, Ji Li’s team discovered a problem with the script and wanted to come to Shen Yanda to find out.
As a result, Shen Yanda turned the tables without any investigation and even used the confidentiality contract as an excuse to threaten them not to disclose the information.
What's the final result? It was obvious that Shen Yanda and the crew had teamed up to throw dirty water on Ji Li and say that he was a big shot!
Depend on!
The evildoer filed the complaint first and deliberately led the uninformed netizens to denounce Ji Li. Does he still have any shame?
If this happened to any other young actor, would they be able to continue staying in the entertainment industry after being exposed online?
——Wow, wow, wow my little Jilizi is being wronged! The truth finally comes out!
——Ji Li, I’m sorry, I was also misled by Shen Yanda at the beginning. I hope you can accept my apology! I wish your career gets better and better!
——I like Ji Li so much, he is a very upright actor at heart! Thank you for standing your ground!
Netizens praised Ji Li highly, but of course, they also scolded Shen Yanda and the crew of "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasties" even more harshly.
Ordinary netizens denounced, fans of the leading actors denounced, and fans of the drama remained silent...
"The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty", which originally had the most hope of winning the ratings championship, suddenly became a show that was boycotted by everyone.
Shen Yanda was overwhelmed by calls from all sides, and was completely overwhelmed by panic. He felt guilty and could not come up with a way to clear himself, for fear that new accusations would pop up.
Sun Changjiang, who had been drinking with him in a friendly manner last night, now turned his face against him.
In the meeting room, the atmosphere between the two sides was very tense.
"How about we just let it go cold?"
"The actors have been paid, and there are only two or three episodes left to finish filming. The TV station has bought the first episode and will continue to broadcast it."
Shen Yanda looked at Sun Changjiang, who had a cold face opposite him, and there was still a last glimmer of hope in his heart.
Regardless of whether it is plagiarized or not, the TV series will always have a basic audience, and there will still be an audience with little information who will continue to watch it.
If there are viewership, there will be revenue.
As long as there is revenue, they can still make money.
The netizens who boycott the film are only enthusiastic for a short time. Maybe they will forget about it in a few days and then they can start the second part.
Before Sun Changjiang could respond, his assistant rushed in.
"Boss Sun, something bad has happened!"
"Mr. Jiang from the TV station's film and television purchasing team called and said they were going to remove our "The Long Song of the Southern Dynasty" from the shelves!"
"Besides, he informed us that we'd better be prepared to pay compensation!"
When Shen Yanda heard this, his expression froze.
What?
How many episodes has this show aired?
When the crew's largest investor withdrew its investment, Shen Yanda had to bite the bullet and fill the financial gap himself. To this end, he mortgaged two houses for loans and sold many valuable items.
He has been looking forward to it for half a year, and he is waiting to make a lot of money from the ratings after the show starts!
But now, he hasn’t even got his principal back, how could the TV series be taken off the shelves? !
