China Entertainment started in 2004

Chapter 148 Hao Su, you don’t want to pay huge liquidated damages, right?

"First shot, first act, action."

With this sound, the filming of "The Witch in Suit" officially started.

This drama is adapted from the Korean drama "Witch Yoo Hee" which was filmed and broadcast in March 2007.

现在是2006年7月，距离2007年3月还有8个月的时间。

Wang Shu plans to finish the drama as soon as possible and then try to air it this year.

Moreover, he also made many adaptations to the plot and settings of this drama.

For example, the male lead 3 is set to be a master of French cuisine in "Witch Yoo Hee".

Wang Shu changed it to Chinese Cuisine Master and invited Jiang Chao to play this role.

After his adaptation, "Witch Suyi" and "Witch Youxi" have become very different.

Even if South Korea produces "Witch Yoo Hee", it will only be because they copied Wang Shu's work, not Wang Shu who copied them.

What's more, popular Korean dramas such as "Witch Yoo Hee" are all plagiarisms of Japanese dramas.

Although "The Witch in Suit" is an adapted version by Wang Shu, in fact, there is not much difference in the context of the story.

It also tells the story of Li Suyi, a successful career female heroine who is always confused about love - longing for love and dreaming of falling in love with her first love, Yang Wei, the unique second male prince charming in the world.

However, because she has always been cold, love is always out of reach.

The male lead Wang Shu is the opposite of Li Suyi. He has a gentle temperament and is a love supremacist.

However, in Wang Shu's mind, the only woman in this world is his second girlfriend, Liang Ling.

At the same time, Wang Shu's dream is to become a first-class Chinese cuisine master, so he did not hesitate to drop out of medical university.

However, being a chef is not as simple as imagined. When he met Jiang Tao, the third male cooking master who admired him so much, Wang Shu's eyes were opened. He was willing to be Jiang Tao's disciple forever.

Then, by chance, Li Suyi and Wang Shu, who are polar opposites, signed a contract to help Li Suyi fall in love.

Li Suyi is eager to succeed in love. From head to toe, she consciously accepts Wang Shu's guidance in every word and deed.

Unknowingly, not only Li Suyi's visible appearance had changed, but also her soul.

A man and woman discuss how to love and be loved.

A frozen heart melts when heated, and sweet love comes quietly.

One found inspiration from ice and "magic", and his cooking level improved rapidly.

The unusual love between the two is indispensable for the story of twists and turns.

In fact, the three views of the drama "Witch Yoo Hee" are extremely incorrect.

Male and female protagonist settings, scumbag men and scumbag girls.

The setting of the male protagonist is that Ben has a girlfriend, the second female lead Liang Ling.

Under this premise, the male protagonist kept hooking up with the female lead, and lied to deceive his girlfriend into having an unclear relationship with the female lead.

The female protagonist, knowing that the male protagonist has a girlfriend, deliberately hooks up with the male protagonist.

In the end, the male protagonist dumped his first girlfriend and stayed with the female protagonist.

It's a TV series that has three wrong views.

But it is such a drama with incorrect views and mediocre ratings in South Korea. After being introduced to China, the ratings became a hit and it became a memory of many people's childhood.

Wang Shu could only get it out with tears in his eyes.

Even though it was only the first day of filming, it went surprisingly smoothly.

Wang Shu was initially worried that his company's team would be in a hurry to lead a project for the first time.

As the work got under way, he realized he was overthinking.

The production of an idol drama is set in the capital. It is not difficult to recruit the crew and organize the work. In addition, most of the team in the company are "experienced" in the industry, so they can do things easily and easily. The work was completed relatively smoothly.

At the end of the morning, the main creative staff of the crew, including Wang Shu, were all huddled together eating lunch boxes.

While Hao Su was eating his lunch, he kept looking at Wang Shu, as if he had something to say but couldn't say it.

Qin Hao, Hao Su, Jiang Chao, Xu Huanhuan and others are already familiar with each other through the reading club organized by Yishu Company.

While eating his lunch, Xu Huanhuan looked for a topic and asked, "Hao Su, hasn't "The Summer Palace" passed the review yet?"

Previously, when Hao Su was talking to them, he said that "Summer Palace" had not passed the review. Xu Huanhuan asked this question now.

"No, the film and television bureau said that the picture was blurry and would not be reviewed." Hao Su became very angry when he heard this question.

The picture is blurry and it will not be reviewed. Is this the reason people say?

She didn't notice that after hearing these words, Wang Shu stopped eating his lunch box and froze on the spot.

""The Summer Palace". Lou Ye banned film ban"

Wang Shu opened his mouth, and suddenly thought of these things under the conversation between Xu Huanhuan and Hao Su, and his heart suddenly felt cold.

郝檑
  But a big bomb!
  Why did you choose her to play the heroine? ! !

Damn, "Summer Palace" and "The Tuner" were shortlisted for the 59th Cannes Film Festival, but I forgot about it! !
  Wang Shu, my balls hurt.

"The picture is blurry, so we won't pass the trial?" Qin Hao and others looked incredulous when they heard this.

I have seen reasons for not being able to pass the trial, but I have never seen such an outrageous reason.

Since it won't go through trial, can't you find a valid reason?

Who will accept this?
  Hao Su has a carefree and somewhat straightforward personality. She immediately responded angrily: "That's the reason!"

Although he has a straight personality, he is not stupid either.

Although the people around him who are on the same crew are already familiar with each other, they are not very familiar with each other.

So I didn't dare to say some weird things about the film and television bureau, lest it be spread and cause trouble.

Qin Hao and Jiang Chao looked at each other and felt that the matter must not be that simple. The reason for the blurred picture was most likely superficial, and there must be other reasons.

The two of them looked at Wang Shu in unison. Wang Shu's current rank was no longer comparable to theirs, so they wanted to get the answer from Wang Shu.

However, Wang Shu was busy thinking about things at the moment and was completely unaware of the looks they were looking at.

When the two saw this, they thought Wang Shu was thinking about something important and did not disturb him.

"Is it possible that Director Lou took the film to the Cannes Film Festival because it didn't pass the review?" Xu Huanhuan asked the doubt in his heart.

In April this year, news came out at the 4th Cannes Film Festival that Lou Ye's new film "Summer Palace" was shortlisted for the main competition, becoming the only two domestic films to compete for the Palme d'Or.

However, just as the Cannes Film Festival was about to kick off, surprising news suddenly came out of "Summer Palace."

"Because the subject matter of "Summer Palace" was too sensitive, it failed to pass the review of the Film and Television Bureau."

At the time, the film studio denied the news.

He also said that it was not that "Summer Palace" failed to pass the censorship, but that it was not submitted for review due to post-production schedule reasons.

At that time, people who didn't know the truth thought this was the case.

Now that Lou Ye has returned from Cannes with "Summer Palace", the film still cannot pass the review.    This made many people realize that something was wrong.

Because, according to the "Film Management Regulations" that came into effect on February 2002, 2, if films are provided to participate in overseas film exhibitions or film festivals without approval, the film and television administrative department will order them to stop illegal activities and confiscate the illegally participated films. films and illegal income, and shall not engage in related film business within 1 years.

When Hao Su heard this, he glanced at Wang Shu secretly and said, "Probably. No."

After finishing speaking, he felt that there was not much convincing and then explained, "If it was Director Lou who signed up to participate in the Cannes Film Festival in violation of regulations, Director Lou would have been punished long ago, and we wouldn't have waited until there is no movement."

When Xu Huanhuan, Qin Hao and others heard this, they all felt it made sense.

……

Lunch time is over and it’s break time.

Wang Shu called Hao Su and then took her to an uninhabited corner.

Hao Su didn't know why and followed Wang Shu with doubts.

When he saw Wang Shu stop, Hao Su blinked his eyes and asked: "Director Wang, are you looking for me for something important?"

Hao Su deliberately took her to a corner where no one was around, and Hao Su knew without even thinking that he had something important to tell her.

Wang Shu did not answer the question, but sighed and said: "Sister Lu, the contract you signed with our company stipulates that if the TV series cannot be broadcast due to your fault, you will compensate the film studio for the loss, right? "

"You don't want to lose this money, do you?"

"Director Wang?" Hao Su was stunned when he heard Wang Shu's words. He opened his mouth to say something, but couldn't.

Wang Shu glanced at Hao Su and said to himself: "Actually, I admire and like Sister Su, otherwise I wouldn't have taken the initiative to invite Sister Su when there were many actresses who wanted to star in this drama. Come and play the heroine.”

"only."

Hao Shu had already understood what Wang Shu meant. She was a straight-tempered person and asked directly: "Director Wang is worried that my starring role in "The Summer Palace" will affect this drama?"

After asking, he smiled innocently and said: "If Director Wang is worried about this, then Director Wang's worries are somewhat unnecessary."

"The Summer Palace just couldn't be released because it didn't pass censorship, and Director Lou wasn't punished either."

Before Hao Su could finish speaking, Wang Shu had already interrupted: "Sister Su, what if I tell you that Director Lou will definitely be punished?"

"If you don't believe me, you can call Director Lou and ask him if he knows what he knows."

"The Film and Television Bureau has not given any punishment now, but that doesn't mean it won't be given in the future."

"There is a process, which may be two months, three months, four months, etc."

"When the process is completed, Director Lou's punishment will come."

"Especially since Director Lou has obviously participated in foreign film festivals against the rules, and has repeatedly sent "The Summer Palace" that failed to pass the review to the Film and Television Bureau in an attempt to pass the review."

"Such behavior will inevitably lead to punishment."

Hao Su was stunned for a moment by what Wang Shu said. He was stunned for a while and didn't know how to refute.

She knew in her heart that Wang Shu was on good terms with Han Sanping and China Film Group, and might have gotten some information through certain channels.

Seeing that Hao Su was silent, Wang Shu sighed again: "According to the Film Management Regulations, Director Lou should be banned from directing for five years."

"Although this matter has not been implemented yet, I believe that Director Lou has an idea."

"The film "Suzhou River" he directed was banned from directing for two years because of violations."

"He is more familiar with the process of this matter than many people."

"And... the drama "Summer Palace" is also impossible to pass the review."

"While eating just now, I heard you say that the reason why the film bureau refused to approve the film was because the film was blurry."

"I think you know in your heart that it's not this reason, but another reason. It's just because you don't want to admit it."

After saying that, he looked at Hao Su quietly.

Hao Su opened his mouth, looked at Wang Shu, and asked, "Director Wang, do you think I will also be affected?"

She couldn't refute what Wang Shu said about Lou Ye's punishment, so she didn't dwell on the issue.

Instead, ask this question.

Under normal circumstances, even if "Summer Palace" failed to pass the review and was banned, and director Lou Ye was punished for violating regulations, the starring actors in the movie would not be affected.

For example, in "Suzhou River", Lou Ye was banned from directing for two years due to violations. Zhou Xun and others were not affected as the leading actors in the movie.

And this is where Hao Su is confused.

Although she is careless, it does not mean that she has no discernment at all. From Wang Shu's attitude, he has already guessed.

If it were another director, she might laugh and say that she thinks too much.

She is just the starring role, not the director.

Even if there is a punishment, it will be on the director, not her as the lead actor.

However, Wang Shu is different.

In her mind, Wang Shu might know some news that she didn't know.

That is, I can’t laugh.

"I asked someone just now. The scale of "Summer Palace" is a bit large." Wang Shu looked at Hao Su and said hesitantly.

It was impossible to find someone. He just remembered that Hao Su had been banned for three years because of this drama.

The reason seems to be because the scale is too large.

This girl also had bad luck. She was banned for three years for "Summer Palace" in 06. When she came back in 09, she was slandered by a male friend she supported and gave false evidence to backstab her. She was banned for another two years because she could not prove her innocence.

By the time he comes back, not only has he passed his golden age, but the entertainment industry has also entered the era of capital.

In this era, she was reduced to supporting Huang Xiaoming's wife Yang Ying...

When Hao Su heard this, his expression suddenly froze.

Even though Wang Shu didn't say it explicitly, she could understand the meaning.

Especially when asked about this sentence by someone, it is even more convincing.

Seeing this, Wang Shu sighed and said, "I really want to cooperate with Sister Su, but..."

After a pause, he continued, "Even if this drama continues to be filmed normally and cannot be broadcast due to some reasons, I have just wasted about a month of my time."

"But Sister Shu has to pay a huge amount of liquidated damages for this."

"If I didn't really admire Sister Lei, I wouldn't have talked to Sister Su about this after hearing you talking about "The Summer Palace" on the first day of filming."

"After all, even if I'm affected, I can still get the liquidated damages paid by Sister Su, so I won't lose anything."

"I will tell Sister Su this."

Before Wang Shu could finish speaking, Hao Su forced a smile and said, "I understand, Director Wang doesn't want me to go bankrupt because of this."

"Director Wang has a good heart and is a good person."
