Chapter 144
What Yu Sheng said was very sincere, but for some reason, Su Nuannuan always felt that it sounded a bit awkward. Fortunately, she concealed this emotion better, instead of showing it, she smiled politely laugh.

"I didn't expect Senior Brother Yu to be so successful and famous now, but still not forgetting his original intention. This makes me very admired. I hope that I can be like Senior Brother Yu in the future."

"Junior Sister Su is Professor Chen's closed disciple. Given how much Professor Chen cares about you, your achievements will definitely be higher than mine in the future."

Yu Sheng lowered his voice slightly, and said in a voice that only he and Su Nuannuan could hear, "You and I are brothers and sisters, and it's okay to say something bluntly. To be honest, the screenwriting circle and the entertainment circle are similar. In terms of her own talent and background, Junior Sister Su has Professor Chen as her backer. As long as the work she submits is not too bad, with Professor Chen's current status in the industry, she will definitely be able to push your script to a big company. In addition, although Junior Sister Su didn't say it clearly, I can tell that your husband should also be a famous person. If he can help you run a little behind the scenes, let alone become a famous screenwriter, he will be in major movies next year. It is not difficult to win the Best Screenplay Award at the festival."

Seeing that Su Nuannuan was listening seriously, Yu Sheng thought she was interested, so he said again, "Once you have an award, no matter what you write or the quality of your writing, there will definitely be film and television companies buying it. Once the company buys the copyright, you can make a lot of money."

"It doesn't matter what the quality of the work is? As long as there is an award? But the audience is not stupid, they can always tell whether a work is good or bad, and the box office can prove everything, right?"

Yu Sheng heard the words, and immediately looked at Su Nuannuan with such a simple look, "You think the current audience really has such a strong ability to distinguish, and they don't just follow what others say. They believe what others say, and blindly praise it. Doesn’t a movie happen often? To be honest, it doesn’t matter whether the movie is good or not. It also depends on the operation of the film and television company in the later stage. It doesn’t matter if the box office is not good at the beginning. As long as the film and television company is willing to spend money to support the box office, then there will naturally be audiences who follow suit and pay the bill in the later stage. If the male and female protagonists are ambiguous, if the first female lead and the second female lead do not get along on the set, or if they engage in feelings, then it will naturally increase the popularity of the film. When more people pay attention, the behind-the-scenes staff will come out to sell their feelings. Such a series of operations After that, the film's box office will be stable."

The more Su Nuannuan listened, the more she frowned.

At the beginning, Yu Sheng's voice was very quiet, but when he talked about the proud part later, his voice became louder unconsciously, and the people at the table with them heard it, even the people at the next table heard it.

Not only did they not object to Yu Sheng's long speech, but they nodded frequently, which seemed to agree with this point of view.

"You all feel that the quality of the work is not important, what is important is the marketing methods behind?"

Su Nuannuan looked at these master students and doctoral students around her, and her heart became colder and colder little by little.

Someone present here saw Su Nuannuan's displeasure, and with an embarrassed smile on his face, he reluctantly explained, "It's not that it's not important, but it's really not the most important thing. No matter how good a work is, it can't be filmed without capital injection." How can the audience know that this work exists? In this day and age, with such anxiety, who can patiently read a book, let alone a script. Ordinary people can't read the script at all. It can be said that the script cannot If it becomes film and television, then all value will be lost.”

"Yes!" The other boy nodded and sighed helplessly, "We who write scripts are also writers after all, so we are more or less lofty in our hearts, as long as we can find a way , and won’t delve into these things, but the current situation in the circle is like this. If you don’t compromise, it’s a dead word. Now what is not capital is king, what does capital recognize, capital recognizes capital, investors invest a sum of money in, What I think is how to make money back. The work is good, but there are no traffic stars, not enough exposure and hot spots. Which audience can go to the cinema and spend money to watch this movie. In today's society, people are impetuous, and how many people can You can tell whether a work is good or bad, but what do they believe in because of the marketing accounts on the Internet?"

"That's right, not only marketing accounts, but now there are also film companies directly hiring trolls to post extremely provocative film reviews on the Internet and on some movie rating websites, exalting themselves and belittling others. This is actually an open competition within the circle. The method, who can win in the end, depends not on whether the script is good or not, but on the marketing methods behind it, and the strength of the film and television company behind it. It can be said that this is basically a contest of capital, not a simple one. Therefore, if people like us can’t rely on a powerful film and television company, they might as well find a way to stay in school to teach, at least they can make a living. Light."

When it came to this practical problem, everyone expressed their thoughts one after another, but these thoughts were full of despair, helplessness and compromise.

Su Nuannuan originally thought that this would be a group full of vigor and fighting spirit, but now she saw a side that was completely different from what she imagined.

It would be a lie to say that she is not disappointed, but she also knows that this is the reality, just like when she forced herself to write the president's article in order to earn more royalties, didn't she also compromise when she did this?
If she hadn't met Tang Yifeng today, who paved the way for her and supported her so strongly behind her back, she would never have had the opportunity to write back what she likes.

"However, the script is the foundation of a play. If the quality of the script is not good enough, what's the point to the screenwriter if the box office is supported by traffic stars and post-marketing alone?"

In fact, Su Nuannuan already had the answer in her heart, but she just wanted to use this question to change the attitude of the people present.

"Why is it meaningless? If the movie is a hit, the screenwriter can use the movie's box office as a selling point to increase his remuneration for the next movie!"

Yu Sheng followed Su Nuannuan's words and said this.

Su Nuannuan turned her head to look at Yu Sheng, she couldn't see a trace of guilt and guilt in his eyes, he thought it was justified, but he didn't say it back not long ago, what he wants now is not fame, not money Fame, what he wants is the original intention of creation, isn't it?But could it be said that this was his original intention?

Yu Sheng noticed Su Nuannuan's eyes, and suddenly realized that he had slipped his tongue. He lowered his eyelids, his eyeballs rolled around a few times quickly, and when he raised his head again, he already had an excuse in his heart.

"Of course, what I'm talking about is just what you, as new screenwriters, have just entered this industry, you need to do to increase your influence. When you stop worrying about money and have your own contacts in this circle and relationship, then you still have to find a way to find your own heart, as Nuan Nuan said, the script is the foundation of a play, and only when the work is good can you give yourself a longer-term path."

Yu Sheng is, after all, a well-known screenwriter in the circle, so his words of experience are naturally regarded as good advice by these juniors and sisters who have not officially stepped into the screenwriting circle.

However, Su Nuannuan always felt that there was something wrong with what Yu Sheng said. After thinking for a long time, she finally figured it out.

A screenwriter, when he entered the industry, he gave up his persistence for the sake of fame and fortune. When he became famous, he might have to go through a period of time. He lost his true heart for such a long time. Did you find it?

Su Nuannuan glanced at Yu Sheng, she didn't want to think of people too hypocritically, and before today, she had always respected Yu Sheng, but what he said just now made her feel different about him. reserve.

She remembered that when she was young, she often heard the old people in her hometown teach her children, saying that it is difficult for people to learn to be good, but it is easy to learn to be bad. Difficult, unless he suffered some heavy blow, learned to reflect after learning from the pain, and wanted to start all over again, but the rest of his life didn't seem to be hit.

This is for no reason, what motivates him to go back to school to calm down and work on the script?Didn't he just say that people are now impetuous, and the entire market environment only cares about traffic and not quality?

Isn't it strange to suddenly say that you have earned enough money and you want to get back to your original intention?

At this time, surrounded by everyone, you spent the rest of your life talking one sentence at a time, but you didn't notice Su Nuannuan's eyes looking at him at all.

He felt that Su Nuannuan beside him was silent, and he thought that she, like the juniors and younger brothers and sisters around her, became more and more excited because she listened too seriously, as if he wanted Su Nuannuan to know how he was doing right away. From an unknown little screenwriter, through these so-called small skills, he gradually became the screenwriter of major popular dramas.

Su Nuannuan lowered her head slightly, listening to Yu Sheng's eloquent talk, but her heart became more and more responsive.

Is this still a screenwriter?There is no bottom line, so deliberate to climb up, this is clearly a profit-seeking businessman.

"I think that people's freedom at any time is conditional. When you don't have the right to choose, you might as well let go of your unnecessary dignity and so-called morality. Only when you stand in a high position can you have the right to say no! "

After talking for more than half an hour, Yu Sheng finally put an end to his 'speech'. During the period, his juniors kept toasting him, and he drank it without hesitation. Already a little drunk.
