I'm a Super Cop

Dream?

Alarm clock?

He Xiaofan is confused.

He didn't think about it at all, OK?

The scene was a little embarrassed, he Xiaofan couldn't answer.

Gu's mother Xiao Xiaofang said with a smile: "in my opinion, none of them are. What really wakes you up is the heartache of being fined for being late?"

"What's heartache but not heartache? Is it OK that other people's screenwriters are independent teams? I'm very free. I don't need to punch in the company at all. " Gu Baichuan is obviously better than Xiao Xiaofang, and his intonation is several decibels higher.

He Xiaofan said with a smile: "it's true. Sometimes when we receive a project, we want to go to the capital to go to Mordor with our team partners. The project producers lock us in the hotel to write scripts."

"Except that we have to hand in the manuscript on time, we have no special requirements. We are quite free."

"So?" Xiao Xiaofang didn't know the screenwriter very well. She also said with a smile, "it's boring to stay in the hotel. It's just like the dark room in our food supermarket."

"Ah, aunt Xiao, you're right. It's almost like a small black room." He Xiaofan Gulu Gulu after drinking two cokes, and said: "but this can also calm down to write a script."

"In fact, the hotel rooms are very good, what we want, the producer also provided us with a life assistant."

"As for what kind of actors are suitable for what roles in the script, there will be some actors' brochures in the hotel, including their economic companies, and the actors' personal experience, etc

"However, most of them are small actors outside the third or fourth line. In order to recommend their own actors, economic companies need to cooperate with these hotels."

"Of course, the hotel also knows which scriptwriters are assigned to write scripts in which room every year, so they will place their personal brochures on the desk of the Scriptwriter's room in advance before they move in."

"And that kind of thing?" Gu Baichuan was stunned and said thoughtfully: "it seems that propaganda is really important. The fragrance of wine is also afraid of the deep alley."

Glancing at he Xiaofan, Gu Baichuan asked again, "Xiaofan, are you a playwright or a signed screenwriter? Is that right?"

"Poof!" Listening to his father Gu Baichuan ridicule he Xiaofan, Gu Chen can't help but glance and laugh.

Gu Baichuan looked back: "son, what are you laughing at?"

"It's true that the signed screenwriter is powerful, but he has to bear a lot of pressure. In fact, in the crew, the writer should be regarded as a model worker? The director said that if you change the script, you have to change it. Maybe the time to change the script is enough to write several new plays. "

"Gu Chen, you still know me." He Xiaofan seemed to find a resonance, but also said with a bitter smile: "Uncle Gu, aunt Xiao, what you care about may be that I can sign a screenwriter in the play."

"But what we are concerned about is that there are so many different signatures on the script. What are the specific meanings of each? Will it be trapped? "

"How to divide the work among different posts? How can a signature be considered a standard? Is there any space for infringement? What is fair and reasonable to submit for awards? "

"Anyway, in a word, we are more concerned about the establishment of rules and regulations, because it is too common for the scriptwriter team to compete with the producers in terms of wisdom and bravery, and we have to keep an eye on everything."

After looking at Gu Chen, he Xiaofan casually found a stool to sit down first. He also said: "if you participate in small projects and small script writing, there are not so many requirements. However, once large projects are involved, there are too many stakeholders involved."

"It's always a few projects that investors inject capital into a project. A project with 100 million yuan will soon be joined by new investors. One billion yuan will become two hundred million yuan, three hundred million yuan. Everyone wants to have a share. What should we do?"

Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang looked at each other, shaking their heads.

"Then we have to distribute the interests. After all, it's a win-win project, so it's troublesome to coordinate the distribution of interests. If it's an old partner, there may not be so many problems. If it's a new partner, several parties should sit down and have a good talk."

"In this way, will your play be constantly revised?" Gu Chen asked weakly.

He Xiaofan clapped his thigh: "yes, because different producers have cooperative scriptwriters in their hands, and the signing problem is very troublesome."

"Sometimes we'd like to pay less for a screenwriter, and we also have to sign up, because being able to participate in such a big project is your intangible wealth."

Gu Chen asked his cheek thoughtfully: "well, I usually watch plays, and there are some big productions. It seems that there are too many signatures. It seems that there are a lot of directors and screenwriters alone, which make me dazzled. What's the matter?"

"Ha ha." See Gu Chen really don't understand, he Xiaofan smile: "Gu Chen, this you don't know?"

"If we make an analysis from a professional perspective, then the signature related to the script has many different meanings."

After readjusting his sitting posture, he Xiaofan pulled up his finger and said, "let me give you an example, just It's not complete statistics. This There are various kinds of signatures related to the script, such as chief screenwriter, screenwriter, CO screenwriter, adapted screenwriter, literary director, Script Supervisor, screenwriter, screenwriter, literary editor, editor in charge, script planner, literary planner, and so on. "Gu Chen:

"So much?"

"What do you think?" He Xiaofan took a sip of coke and chuckled: "but you can see that these signatures are dazzling, but on the whole, they are just these three categories."

"What kind of screenwriters, producers, planners, specific to the writer class, the total screenwriter, screenwriter, joint writer division of labor is different."

"Take the relationship between the chief screenwriter and the screenwriter. In fact, it is the relationship between the part and the whole. On the whole, the chief screenwriter is the project sponsor."

"Or the person in charge of the play identified by the producer. The chief screenwriter is responsible for the overall concept and artistic quality of the play's structure, plot context, character relationship and trend."

On hearing the speech, Gu Chen nodded quietly: "so, some of the chief writers just say not to write, some can write the outline, some can write one or two episodes to make a sample, but most of the chief editors do the work of leading the way?"

He Xiaofan was shocked, clapped his hands and pointed to Gu Chen and said, "Gu Chen, comprehension ability is very high."

"I'm talking nonsense. After all, I don't understand." Gu Chen finds that the cat, who has finished drinking a pot of milk at the door, has reached his feet to meow.

So Gu Chen tore half of a piece of bread from the table and threw it into the stainless steel basin at the door.

"Meow!" The little cat called excitedly, "whoosh" and ran to the door to look for food.

"Did you get it right?" Looking at Gu Chen's divine operation, he Xiaofan can't help but go back to the topic and say:

"in fact, what you said just now is also true, but in terms of the general screenwriters I have contacted, they are generally divided into these two types."

"One is that the chief screenwriter will finish the whole diversity and scene and give it to some screenwriters to deal with it."

"There is also a kind of general playwright who is a little bit more leisure. Generally, four or five screenwriters will be responsible for different units, and finally he will be responsible for the integration."

Gu Chen nodded slightly, but also could not help saying: "if that is the first kind of total screenwriter, then he is undoubtedly the soul and core of the script."

"In this way, writing scripts for him is relatively replaceable. This kind of writing is quite independent. He should also enjoy the right of independent authorship, right?"

"Yes." He Xiaofan nodded silently, but he also said with a sad face: "but the producer is father. Whether you can sign independently depends on your character. Especially for large-scale production, it's just like playing scratch. It depends on luck, and you have to fight with the producer."

"But there is also a concept in this, that is, editorial."

"Editor? What is the editor? Is the Commission for Discipline Inspection? " Xiao Xiaofang didn't know why, so she couldn't help saying.

He Xiaofan covered his face with a smile and said, "aunt Xiao, you are really funny. In fact, the position of the editor is very important. For example, the editor in charge of Hong Kong City is almost equal to the chief screenwriter here."

"However, this concept has also been introduced in the mainland for a while. However, there is no copyright for the signature" editor in chief "in the mainland, and there is no way to report the award. It can only be reported to the screenwriter or the chief screenwriter."

"Therefore, the concept of" editorial review "disappeared in the mainland after a flash in the pan."

"So it is. Is the signature so important?" Many people from all walks of life don't understand it.

All you can see are the participants on the screen, but more people may not even have the right to sign their names. They just take money instead of signing.

Gu Chen also nodded slightly, and asked he Xiaofan: "but anyway, the role of the chief screenwriter is there. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you can sign the script, just like the relationship between characters, core conflicts, selling points and highlights. The top priority of a play must be the chief screenwriter to complete it alone?"

"You're right about that." Seeing that he finished drinking coke, he Xiaofan looked at the freezer.

Gu Chen understood, directly took out a bottle of Sprite and handed it to him: "I invite you."

"Thank you. It's mainly hot outside." He Xiaofan wiped the sweat on his forehead, and then opened sprite for a few drinks.

Gu Chen opened a packet of napkins, took out two and handed them to him: "wipe your face, too."

"Mm-hmm." Where clean the face, he continued to wipe the dirt.

Gu Chen was fascinated and asked him on the table: "brother he, you say that the role of the chief screenwriter is so great, isn't it a general outline with tens of thousands of words and a detailed diversity outline? Many chief screenwriters have to start in person?"

"Ha ha." Seeing Gu Chen's thirst for knowledge, especially in Gu Chen's gift of a bottle of Sprite, he Xiaofan laughs twice and is willing to communicate.

"Gu Chen, you have to know that there is a very important thing in the TV play, which is called rhythm. The control of rhythm is the most important thing for the total screenwriter. The screenwriter should listen to the ideas of the chief screenwriter more."

"For joint screenwriters, it's usually a combination, a partner, or a modular method of dividing the number of sets, or it's done by mentors and apprentices.""But most of the co writers' co-operation is not long-term, and the distribution of interests and the signing are the points of concentration of contradictions."

Gu Chen nodded slightly and said with a faint smile: "the" joint screenwriter "you mentioned should be a co authored co scriptwriter, not a co scriptwriter under the leadership of the chief screenwriter?"

"Yes." He Xiaofan said with a smile: "but there is a very interesting thing in it, that is, men and women match, there is no contradiction, everyone is very good to talk."

"But when it comes to men's or women's cooperation, it may not be so simple. Sometimes the competition between the same-sex is beyond your imagination. Of course, there are some people who get along well, but only a few of them are happy."

"Peers are enemies, and this is also true in business." Gu Baichuan grinned and said faintly: "take my non-staple food supermarket as an example. Everyone starts to open a non-staple food supermarket around when I make money."

"But what happened? Even if a large shopping mall is opened around the community, it has a little impact on me, but the problem is not big. How can I make money or how to make money? "

"Because my non-staple food supermarket has a core, that is, I am innocent of both the old and the young. People in the neighborhood trust me, and I get a certificate of integrity every year. This is an official certification."

"Dad, can we keep a low profile?" Gu Chen feels that Gu Baichuan has a high profile, which sometimes makes people feel very ashamed.

"The business at home has been operating for so many years. Do you think that the industry and Commerce of other people can not give you the plaque of honest management?"

He Xiaofan also said with a smile: "Uncle Gu's core competitiveness is there, no one really shakes it. Peers here are looking for no fun, because your own strength is excellent."

"But we have too many unspeakable difficulties in our screenwriting industry. The main reason is that the division of labor is different and everyone has contributed. Why can't we sign?"

"Or do you have a signature? Why don't I? It's easy to create conflicts. "

"Yes, too." Gu Chen nodded silently and agreed with he Xiaofan's words. Then he continued to ask him, "is there no way to solve this problem?"

"Yes." Seeing that Gu Chen was still too young, he Xiaofan said with a smile: "in our screenwriting industry, there are several big men who have created the bamboo style of plum blossom."

"The bamboo style of plum blossom?"

Gu Baichuan and Xiao Xiaofang share the same voice. They look at each other, but they don't know why.

Gu Chen eyebrows a frown, is also curious to ask he Xiaofan: "this writing method is not a person to write an episode, alternate?"

"Gu Chen, it seems that you are very smart. You have understood the writing literally." He Xiaofan didn't expect that Gu Chen could understand this kind of thing which was totally incomprehensible to the layman.

So smile Zizi said: "yes, it is one person to write an episode, alternately, but this requires a very tacit understanding."

"If the words of the two writers get closer and closer, even the directors who have worked with them for a long time will not be able to tell who wrote which part."

Gu Chen nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered he Xiaofan's new play recently, so he asked him curiously: "the new play of elder brother he, the signed one should be the co writer?"

"Yes, it's a co scriptwriter. I've got a lot less pay for my signature. It's painful to think about it." He Xiaofan drank Sprite from Gu Chen, and he couldn't make complaints about it.

Gu Chen of course can understand that fame and wealth, sometimes just like the relationship between fish and bear's paw, can not have both.

But fame and wealth are equal to future wealth, at least to show that they are worth the price.

Gu Chen now finally understands why he Xiaofan is unwilling to accept garbage projects, even if he has a lot of money.

Maybe that's where he's in?

It's rare to meet a screenwriter like he Xiaofan in his own non-staple food supermarket. Gu Chen still held a modest attitude and asked him for advice: "how soon can brother he finish writing a script?"

"This..."

He Xiaofan stood still and pondered for a few seconds before he said with a smile: "this It can only be calculated. A screenwriter can complete 3000 to 5000 words a day with good quality and quantity. "

"Maybe I can finish one episode of the script in five days. With the rest, I can finish five episodes in a month

Looking up at the clouds outside, he Xiaofan calculated for a few seconds. Then he said again: "if it is a 30 episode script, it will take at least half a year to create."

"In addition to the interference and adjustment in the middle, it will take a year to complete the work, but in fact, many TV series want you to finish the work in 5 or 6 months."

"Therefore, one person can not complete the whole project independently, so we need help and several people to complete it together."

"So it is?" Gu Chen finally knows that it takes a long time to do this kind of project just like water conservancy project.

It's not to say that you have just set up a project and will be able to produce in half a year, which is totally unrealistic.But thinking about the new play that is addicted to now, Gu Chen continues to ask he Xiaofan, "the work you wrote is now on the air, isn't it the result of your work a few years ago?"

"That's right. Who said it wasn't?" He Xiaofan said with a smile: "so the cycle of fame is too long. If you can't find a new project in this period of time, you have to be hungry."

"But if you have a good relationship with the screenwriter, you may still be able to continue to cooperate. Although the screenwriter is not the chief screenwriter, he is actually the responsible person of the play, but he has no copyright."

"In general, it belongs to the script producer who has given some help to the screenwriter. Most of them have more teacher-student relationship and more friend relationship."

Afraid Gu Chen can't understand, he Xiaofan said: "for example, some cross-border screenwriters may be famous in their original field, such as authors, actors and so on."

"If they're going to be a screenwriter, do you need to improve your writing skills? It's a good choice to have a screenplay producer. "

"And the screenplay producer is mainly to help the writer to control the theme and direction, not to dominate the audience, but everywhere."

"It's more help for some talented novices, more technical than administrative."

Said here, he Xiaofan is also a sigh, said: "I was from the author into the writing profession, but also thanks to my script producer friend, but now this guy has a lawsuit, is already exhausted, I am also trying to help him."
