Chapter 431: The Biggest Fraud Case in the History of Chinese Film and Television?

"Shocking!" Zhong Hongjiao actually suffered these injuries! 》

Someone dug up Zhong Hongjiao's trumpet and discovered the things she secretly recorded online.

But even the trumpet did not dare to name him, and the news did not reveal the mastermind Cui Yaokun.

Moreover, within ten minutes after this news appeared, it disappeared without a trace.

But with all the people paying attention, it is impossible to disappear quietly like other covered news.

Some interested netizens retweeted and asked, but all their messages were deleted, which aroused their curiosity.

Originally it was just an uncertain guess, but seeing such a nervous deletion of the post and such a powerful action made everyone firmly believe that——

The thing is true, and the power behind the scenes is huge!

This moment triggered the emotions of netizens.

They posted tirelessly and tried to spread the message through WeChat, only to find that even private chats were monitored and blocked.

This aroused their anger even more.

Now that things have developed, it is not just about Zhong Hongjiao, but also about everyone’s privacy and freedom!

With the persistence of the public and the spread of various Internet slang, the truth was pieced together bit by bit.

Zhong Hongjiao's experience aroused great anger among the public, and they felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Suddenly someone remembered:

【etc! Isn't this the plot of "The Silent Truth"? 】

[Yes, almost exactly the same, except for Hou Guiping, who insists on investigating the case. 】

【What a coincidence. 】

[The mastermind behind the evil in the play is the Shanjia Group. I don’t know what kind of group it is in reality. 】

【Shan Jia? Cui? 】

The original film "The Silent Truth" was based on the Kane Group.

Su Zhe deliberately changed the name to Shanjia Group in order to insinuate, and as expected, the omnipotent netizens discovered it.

After they associated it with the Cui family, they almost locked onto Cui Yaokun through Ding Yizhi's charity organization and a series of information, many of which were arranged by Su Zhe.

Now, Ding Yizhi's "suicide" has become a point of doubt and has been revealed again.

Public opinion was aroused, and reporters went to besiege Cui Yaokun, but he was driven away impatiently.

Some reporters came to interview Su Zhe:

[Su Zhe, are you talking about a real case, referring to "The Silent Truth" and Cui Yaokun? 】

[Is Shanjia Group alluding to the Cui family? 】

[Are you using "The Silent Truth" to reveal this silent truth? 】

Faced with these questions, Su Zhe looked serious and only replied:

"I'm not a prosecutor, so I can't investigate the case."

His words were the clearest statement.

But he is not Jiang Yang, and he has no way to investigate the case. He must rely on real power to intervene.

Sure enough, he received a phone call next time, asking him not to amplify public opinion.

As for the rest, trust...

Su Zhe agreed. He is not a Don Quixote-style hero who challenges the darkness alone.

Getting the relevant departments to pay attention is his ultimate achievement.

Afterwards, he kept silent, and the Cui family tried their best to suppress the heat, and the incident finally passed.

But what will be the final result? Netizens are watching, Su Zhe is watching, and the Cui family is waiting.

…

This is not all of life. Su Zhe quietly hired some bodyguards and continued filming.

In his hometown, Qixia Town and Tongfu Inn in the martial arts city were completed and ready for filming.

There were still large construction sites elsewhere outside, so Su Zhe and others moved in and started filming "Wulin Gaiden."

The role has been chosen long ago, and the person who plays Lu Xiucai is his old friend Yu Haohua.

After meeting him, he said proudly:

"Su Zhe, you asked me to memorize "The Analects of Confucius" and read through the Four Books and Five Classics in advance, and I've completed it! You even hired a Chinese studies teacher to attend classes every day, and now I'm full of books."

Su Zhe nodded and sent him the script:

"Okay, then you should familiarize yourself with the script first and start reading the script tomorrow."

Yu Haohua excitedly left with the script. Within half an hour, he rushed to Su Zhe again, frowned and asked:

"The Analects of Confucius and the Four Books and Five Classics are not in the script."

Su Zhe looked at him doubtfully:

"We are a martial arts sitcom, not a serious historical drama. Why do we have that?"

"That's right..." Yu Haohua scratched his head, and after taking two steps, he felt something was wrong again, "Then why do you want me to recite "The Analects of Confucius"? It's useless!"

Su Zhe replied seriously:

"What I want is this feeling of being full of books but useless."

Even Erha came to his senses:

"Su Zhe, are you playing with me?"

"Hahaha!" The other actors laughed together.

The atmosphere of "Wulin Gaiden" is very good. Although it is a sitcom, the actors' acting skills are excellent and they performed well in the script reading.

The person whose acting skills were held back was still old friend Liu Heluo.

She has been in the industry for so many years, but she still hasn't learned to relax. She always tenses up when acting, as if she always reminds the audience "I am working hard to act."

Su Zhe told her:

"Relax, don't think about making the audience laugh, and don't deliberately wink. Remember, you are Guo Furong, a stupid woman, hot-tempered, laughing and joking, almost acting in your true self, just act naturally."

Any film or television drama pursues reality. The more real it is, the more convincing it will be to the audience.

Including comedy.

Those movies with exaggerated acting skills are basically bad movies and farces. Good comedies feel real and natural most of the time.

Because good comedy does not rely on exaggeration, but on the natural conflicts of the plot to create baggage.

Once an actor has the idea of ​​"I want to play comedy and make the audience laugh", even if he is an actor, it is easy to create a mess of crap.

Su Zhe trained Liu Heluo's acting skills over and over again, even using deception:

"Rehearse it first, and then shoot after rehearsing."

Then ask the director to secretly turn on the camera, and after rehearsal, point to the viewfinder and say:

"Perfect, just use this state!"

Even so, Liu Heluo still accounted for 80% of the "cards" of the crew.

This made Liu Heluo feel very frustrated. He lowered his head and faced Su Zhe shamelessly:

"Brother, I've embarrassed you. If you're angry, just scold me!"

"No need." Su Zhe said calmly, "You are an actor that Penguin hired with 2 billion! Bring money to join the group, the big benefactor, who dares to be disrespectful to you?"

Liu Heluo:......

It’s up to you to do the yin and yang thing!

Su Zhe didn't get angry in the end and vented his emotions in other ways.

In addition to Liu Heluo's acting problems, the biggest problem for the crew was nervousness.

All the actors know that this is a TV series with a price of 2 billion, the most expensive in Chinese history.

They entered the crew with the mentality of filming a martial arts epic, and thought that they would have to go through half a year of martial arts training, and half of the time during the filming, they would perform without physical performance in front of a green screen.

After all, in their minds, for such an expensive TV series, at least half of the money should be spent on special effects, right?

As a result, there is no martial arts training, and acting is just like playing——

Overwhelming! Sunflower acupuncture hand!

What the hell is this?

There are no special effects... No, there is one thing——

Bai Zhantang blew a kiss and a heart came out.

(This red heart is really a special effect from the original film.)

As for the martial arts masterpiece?

It's a sitcom that's hilarious overall, but where does it feel like a masterpiece?

This made the actors tremble with fear, and they felt like they were involved in the biggest fraud case in the history of Chinese television.

——2 billion! How many years will this sentence last?

Su Zhe is the principal criminal, are they considered accomplices or witnesses?

The actors all felt something was wrong, and netizens were even more confused.

After being leaked out of the filming scene by Reuters and Fanpai, netizens couldn't help but ask:

["Wulin Gaiden" is actually a comedy? 】

[A sitcom sold for 2 billion? Su Zhe made 1.99 billion in tears? 】

Although Penguin's reputation is not good, netizens feel distressed and continue to post various emoticons to ridicule Penguin for being defrauded:

(Learning the truth→crying bitterly)

[Hahaha, Penguin cheated Krypton all day long, and finally got cheated by Su Zhe! 】

[This is called hunting geese all day long, causing the geese to peck their eyes! 】

Netizens' ridicule made Penguin anxious, and he was really worried that he would be defrauded of 2 billion.

This is enough to make a senior executive resign and kill a series of middle-level managers.

They kept looking for Su Zhe to negotiate, but Su Zhe had no choice but to hold a press conference to appease them and announced:

"Don't worry, everyone, "Wulin Gaiden" is a very good sitcom and will not make Penguin lose money."

But the reporters still didn’t believe it——

What sitcom is worth 2 billion?

In fact, in the domestic market, no TV series is worth 2 billion, but aren't these major platforms burning money to seize the market?

Anyway, Su Zhe believes that "Wulin Gaiden" will be beneficial to Penguin Pictures' stock price.

In order to convince reporters, he deliberately said:

“I wrote a lot of martial arts just to launch this sitcom.”

The God of Wealth is a veteran of online writing and a fan of martial arts, which makes "Wulin Gaiden" contain a lot of martial arts jokes.

Among them, the stems from "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" (Bai Zhantang = Bai Yutang + Zhan Zhao) are also found in this world.

But there are still a lot of memes originating from Jingu Wenliang, especially Jingu. If you don’t know these memes, you will lose some fun.

So from this perspective, isn't it just to pave the way for the launch of "Wulin Gaiden" that Su Zhe worked hard to copy Jingu for so long?

Su Zhe's confident words finally made everyone doubtful.

They still couldn't believe that a sitcom had such weight, but since Su Zhe dared to say it, it was equivalent to blocking his own credibility.

If the credibility of works with high traffic in the eyes of the public is negative, then Su Zhe's credibility is infinite.

Do you know the value of "never miss" and "never score less than 8 points" (screenwriting works)?

However, as soon as he finished speaking confidently, the penguin stretched his hips.

After they bought the rights to adapt Su Zhe's ancient martial arts series, due to the time limit of the copyright, after half a year of filming, FireWire launched the first Su Zhe's martial arts drama produced by Penguin——

"Romantic Swordsman".

This book is probably Gu Long's most famous work.

Li Xunhuan is also one of the most impressive Gu Long characters.

But it’s really not easy to adapt into a TV series. In previous lives, it all relied on good looks (the plot is too much adapted from the original work, so it can basically be watched as a fan).

Even Su Zhe hesitated for so long without taking pictures. Now that he saw the rapid launch of Penguin, he immediately followed the update curiously.

After watching a few episodes, he became desperate——

Penguin didn't polish the script at all, resulting in very confusing logic. Even a character as distinctive as Lin Xian'er was changed to look like a romantic drama.

What's even more terrifying is that Penguin also used some fresh meat to play important roles such as Li Xunhuan and Ah Fei. The acting skills were very exaggerated and did not show the pain of Li Xunhuan or Ah Fei's sinking at all.

It’s OK that they don’t have acting skills. Although these young men’s looks are not so good that they can be called ugly men in ancient costumes, they are completely inconsistent with the style of martial arts dramas.

Not to mention the martial arts movements. Anyway, the original novel didn’t write much about the movements. It all depends on the artistic conception, and the TV series is also bad.

The protagonist waved his hand——

Swoosh!

A white light flashed, like a lightsaber, and the fight was over.

If it had been so neat, it would have been a style. The key is that the director seemed to think that it would be ugly without martial arts scenes, so he let Li Xunhuan put down the flying knife and fight with the minions, like a fucking dance.

“The plot is confusing, the acting is exaggerated, the looks are mediocre, the special effects are five-cent, and the martial arts are fooling around…”

Su Zhe sighed to the sky:

“Penguin, this is called a scam! Give me back my membership fee!”

As the “original author”, Su Zhe was very angry to see his hard work being wasted, even if he received a huge adaptation fee, and he wanted to go on Weibo to spray Penguin.

Just like Tudou sprayed “Fighting Qi Hua Ma”.

What a heart-stopping feeling that was!

But for the sake of 3 billion, he could only keep persuading himself, "Forget it, forget it, for the sake of money, just bypass them."

Su Zhe is really not a person who bows down for a few dollars, but 3 billion can buy 30,000 tons of rice...

Even the Hulk can be crushed.

But he endured it, and Penguin suspected him:

Is Su's martial arts out of date?

Some people on the Internet also said:

[Su Zhe finally failed! "Little Li Flying Dagger" is a big bad movie! The score is only 3.2! ]

[Su Zhe left the best Su's martial arts to the oil depot, but cheated Penguin. ]

[He gave all his peak period to the oil depot, but asked Penguin for the most expensive gift. ]

Su Zhe finally couldn't help it.

But of course he would not tear his face and angrily criticize the actors and creators of "Little Li Flying Dagger" on Weibo, but just quietly accepted an advertisement.

A game company spent a lot of money to buy the copyright of his martial arts novel game.

Now, they have launched a major version update of "Little Li Flying Dagger", hoping that Su Zhe can personally play Li Xunhuan and make a game advertisement.

——The game company looked down on the young actor who played Li Xunhuan in the Penguin version of "Little Li Flying Dagger".

Su Zhe agreed, but when he saw the advertisement written by the game company, he immediately tore up the script.

Because the advertisement was written like this-

Li Xunhuan wore a set of exaggerated game equipment, holding a golden flying knife, and said:

"If you are a brother, come and chop me. Come to "Su Zhe Qunxia Zhuan", register now and get a golden flying knife."

What a mess, it really dirty his eyes!

Would anyone with shame shoot this kind of thing?

Anyway, Su Zhe won't shoot it!

He directly used the resources of the crew, played Li Xunhuan himself, Yu Haohua played Ah Fei, and other actors had their own roles, and shot several short films.

Don't think that the whole play of "Little Li Flying Dagger" is not easy to adapt, because it is too jumpy and too artistic.

But just looking at the clips, it is definitely top-notch!

Su Zhe decided to shoot those famous scenes——

No, you came at the right time.gif

Wait, not this, this is the famous scene in the TV series.

What Su Zhe wanted to shoot was the exciting clips in the original book.
