Chapter 696: Fighting Piracy
"The Fast and the Furious 8 grossed over 4 million yuan on its first day, earning 4.17 million yuan, surpassing the 7 million yuan first-day box office of its predecessor, Furious 3.46, and successfully breaking the 3.55 million yuan first-day record set by the Spring Festival film Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back, becoming the new single-day box office champion in mainland China's film history."

Although the "One Finger" incident is still heating up, Chen Yufan and Bai Baihe agreed to divorce in 2015, and it is likely that things will return to calm after the joke.

But at the same time, a new giant appeared in the film and television industry.

This exaggerated first-day box office is quite outstanding.

"I watched a lot of movies in theaters, but I felt like none of them were the ones I wanted to watch."

Liu Yifei put down her phone out of boredom and turned to check the information on her tablet.

"In the next month, you will see so many movies that you will want to vomit, and they will all be the movies you like to watch, with depth and soul."

Li Mu joked that the judges at the Cannes Film Festival have to watch at least several movies every day, which will definitely make Liu Yifei no longer want to watch any art films in the short term.

"Ok."

Liu Yifei's cute little feet dangled on the bed. The weekend is all about relaxing.

"Hey, Amu, come and take a look."

Liu Yifei was skating when suddenly her face became serious and she quickly called Li Mu over.

"Well, what happened?"

Li Mu moved his position and moved forward. The title that caught his eye was "Download the complete set of "In the Name of People", high definition and uncut."

"Let's watch the next episode that hasn't aired yet."

Li Mu also frowned. He didn't expect the source of the film to be leaked so quickly. He didn't know what went wrong. Although it was Mango TV that suffered the loss, as one of the largest investors, how could he ignore it?

"I'm down." Liu Yifei moved quickly.

After a while, a high-definition version of "In the Name of People" which had not yet been released appeared in front of the two men. Li Mu knew at a glance that this thing was really not a bluff, it was actually a "sample film for review".

According to the TV drama review procedures issued by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, after the film company applies online, the applicant must submit a written application and submit the materials in person. The materials will be received by the TV Drama Department of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. The required submission documents include a complete set of videotapes or DVDs that meet the review requirements.

According to the review process, the sample tapes submitted for review should be recorded in the form of a broadcast version. "The sample tapes need to be time-coded. The time code is displayed at the upper corner of the screen, without overlapping with the subtitles, so as not to affect the review." "For mobile digital storage, each episode should be a separate file in the common video file formats such as avi, mpeg, rmvb, and mkv."

In this pirated resource, the words "sample film for review" and a time watermark are placed above the screen. There is no doubt that this is the sample film for review.

Sample films submitted for review are actually the resources that are most easily leaked, because they go through multiple links and departments.

Including but not limited to the producers, post-production parties and those in the process of submitting for review, as well as multiple review departments including the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and the Supreme People's Procuratorate.

“Has it been revealed on Weibo yet?”

Li Mu quickly asked Liu Yifei to check the Internet. If it caused discussion, it meant that it had been leaked for some time.

If it hasn't caused heated discussion yet, it proves that Liu Yifei is really lucky to have come across resources that have just been released.

"Not yet!" Liu Yifei replied after picking up her phone and tapping it.

Hearing this, Li Mu quickly picked up his phone and called Li Lu.

"Director Li, what's wrong?"

Li Lu obviously doesn't know about this yet.

"The source of In the Name of People has been leaked, and it is a sample submitted for review. Contact Golden Shield and the Supreme People's Procuratorate to find the source as soon as possible. Also notify Mango TV. Both sides should act together. We cannot let this source spread without restrictions."

When Li Lu heard this, his face immediately became serious. This kind of serious infringement is what filmmakers hate the most.

"Understood. I'll notify them now."

Li Lu was also not vague and took quick action.

"These people are so abominable. It's such a good drama and it's free to watch on TV. How can they do this?"

Liu Yifei pouted, very indignant.

"It has come to this point. There is nothing we can do. It all depends on when we can contain the source."

Li Mu was also helpless. This kind of behavior could not be prohibited. Even in European and American countries where copyright was very developed, it happened from time to time.

"I think you should find a professional company to handle this issue. Whether it's Mengying Media, Golden Shield or Mango TV, you are not good at combating pirated resources."

Liu Yifei thought about it and gave a suggestion.

Li Mu's eyes lit up immediately. This suggestion seemed quite reliable. He clasped his hands together and said, "Yes, we should find a professional one now. Maybe we can quickly curb the spread of the virus."

"Then do you know who to look for?" Liu Yifei seemed to have an idea and asked Li Mu confidently.

"Okay, Smart, go ahead and talk. I'll listen." When Li Mu called out the three words Smart, he couldn't help laughing. However, Liu Yifei, who had never heard of this joke, didn't take it seriously and thought Li Mu was praising her.

"Hehe, in fact, the most professional companies fighting against piracy should be recommended by the National Copyright Administration. They must know which one is the best."

Liu Yifei put her hands on her hips, as if saying, just tell me whether I am smart or not.

"It's rare, but it's doable."

Li Mu hugged Liu Yifei tightly and kissed her, then asked Li Lu to contact the Copyright Bureau in the name of the Supreme People's Procuratorate Film and Television Center.

As expected, the Copyright Bureau recommended a company that specializes in combating piracy to the crew of "In the Name of People". The company has professional monitoring equipment and can respond quickly and shut down any online pirated broadcasts.

The next day, Golden Shield, Mengying Media, and the Supreme People's Procuratorate Film and Television Center quickly issued a joint statement to combat piracy.

At the same time, Nie Mei from Mango TV is also making efforts. After all, they are currently the beneficiaries of the fight against piracy, and they cannot stop just because the film company has taken action.

"Issue a statement and then report it to the police."

Nie Mei instructed her secretary that she hated these piracy deeply at the moment. This TV series was going to create a record and bring huge profits to Mango TV.

"Okay, Mr. Nie. By the way, there is news that we are opening up the broadcasting rights of In the Name of People to the outside world at 5 million yuan per provincial station, and only spent 3.5 million to bring in 100 billion." "Where did this news come from? It's nonsense. Let's dispel this rumor. If anyone spreads it like this, I will send a lawyer's letter directly."

Nie Mei said this mercilessly, but she probably guessed that this was probably competition among peers.

Although the TV series "In the Name of People" cost 3.5 million yuan, it was still risky at the beginning, and there were even some dissatisfied voices within the station.

However, after the show was aired, everything disappeared. Mango TV also made a profit from the show, and it was a win-win situation for it and the film company.

The Imperial Capital Film Festival arrived as scheduled on the 16th.

Liu Yifei also rarely wore a dress, a pink long skirt, which was very eye-catching.

With a string of sparkling bracelets on her fair arms and a crystal necklace around her neck, she looks like a princess from a fairy tale.

"I'll take a few more pictures later. They look really good."

I have to say that women all love beauty and taking photos. When they wear beautiful clothes, they want to take more photos.

"Okay, okay, you just stand there for a while. I told them not to stop and take pictures for me."

Li Mu said this jokingly, and was immediately scolded by Liu Yifei.

“Every city has a lot of history with movies.

Some cities write movies as love letters, some cities write movies as stories, and the imperial capital writes movies as epics.

The promotional posters of the Imperial Capital Film Festival are standing on both sides of the red carpet, and the words on the copy seem to state the purpose of holding this film festival.

"Third Master, President Yu, Director Huang."

Li Mu, Liu Yifei and several people from Zhang Yi's "Operation Red Sea" crew arrived at the edge of the red carpet and saw the crew of "The Founding of an Army" at a glance.

Zhu Yawen also came with the crew, and Li Mu patted him on the shoulder.

"You're so lazy. You only put up the opening ceremony video."

Han Sanping smiled. How could he not know what Li Mu meant? It was obvious that he didn't want to participate in the main competition.

"hey-hey."

Li Mu smiled and said that it was enough for everyone to know about this kind of thing.

"Sister Yifei, Director Li!"

Zhao Liying was in the crew of "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" not far away. When she saw Li Mu and Liu Yifei coming, she walked out from the crowd to say hello.

Zhao Liying was wearing a beige floral dress, which was also very eye-catching.

"Liying, you are so beautiful tonight." Liu Yifei exclaimed.

Li Mu is familiar with this word, because Liu Yifei praises others for their beauty so many times. In her words, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this sentence, and women all love to hear it.

Zhao Liying was a little embarrassed. "No, Sister Yifei is really pretty and has such a good temperament."

The conversation between the two did not stop others from coming over to say hello, and even the unpopular little flower in the capital, Guan Xiaotong, came.

"Director Li, Sister Yifei, long time no see."

"Long time no see, Xiaotong."

Liu Yifei was also a little surprised. The two had not seen each other for a long time. After their collaboration on "I Am Legend", Guan Xiaotong has been in the TV circle in recent years. They have had very few interactions and only met twice by chance.

“Are you bringing any works to the exhibition this time?”

"No, I'm here as a guest performer this time."

"Then I'm looking forward to your performance later." Liu Yifei smiled.

As the red carpet began, "Operation Red Sea" was arranged first, and I don't know if it was because it was the opening film.

Liu Yifei took Li Mu's hand and stepped onto the red carpet, instantly using up a lot of camera memory.

"I haven't seen Liu Yifei for a long time. It's rare."

"Hurry up and shoot, if you miss it, you will miss the chance."

"."

It took two and a half hours to walk the entire red carpet. This was because it was the Beijing Film Festival, otherwise no one would be willing to come. After the walk, Li Mu felt very hungry.

"Director Zhang, is the bureau short of funds? Why don't we even have food?"

After Li Mu came in, he walked around and found nothing to eat. When he saw Zhang Hongsen, he couldn't help but complain.

"We are just providing guidance, we didn't run it, why are you asking me?"

Zhang Hongsen directly passed the buck, "By the way, are you free on the 20th?"

"Huh?" Li Mu raised his eyes with a puzzled look. Wow, it felt like another job had come to him.

"Warner Bros. of the United States is holding a forum event called 'Exploring the Creation Path of Excellent Chinese and Foreign Films' at the film festival. We think it's just right for you to participate. You two are familiar with each other anyway. The invitation letter will probably be sent to you later. Don't refuse it if you have time."

"."

Li Mu could only complain secretly, you have already said it clearly, how can I refuse?

If we just send him an invitation letter and no one says anything, he will definitely turn it down, but in this situation, it is difficult to refuse.
