Huayu’s ex-husband

Chapter 85 85. You can apologize but do not admit the infringement

"Hey, miss, why hasn't the plane taken off yet?"

The flight attendant replied: "Sorry, there is still one person who has not boarded the plane."

Xu Zheng raised his hand and looked at his watch: "But it's already 40 minutes before the takeoff time."

"His luggage has arrived, but the person hasn't arrived yet."

Xu Zheng couldn't help but complain: "Who is so unreliable?"

"Well, there are all kinds of passengers now. We met a passenger last year. Halfway through the plane, he asked us to open the window for him..."

The flight attendant's words immediately brought back some nightmare memories in Xu Zheng, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He wouldn't have encountered that crow's mouth again after a year, would he?

He was really afraid of what would happen. Just when he was thinking this, a simple and honest young man in a suit and leather shoes suddenly came in from the entrance of the cabin.

When the two of them looked at each other, Xu Zheng's expression suddenly changed and he was frightened. However, the visitor raised his hand in surprise and said hello:

"Hi, boss."

The scene freezes, the movie ends, and then the ending song and credits appear at the same time:

Director: Wei Wu

Producer: Wei Wu

Planning: Wei Wu

Screenwriter: Wei Wu

Producer: Wei Wu

The series of Wei Wu's scenes are very eye-catching, and the audience immediately understands that this movie, from writing the script to investing in the filming, was completely handled by director Wei Wu. This level is really incredible!

The last frame of the film freezes on a credits list.

Special thanks:

Peking Academy of Film Arts

Tian Zhuangzhuang, Director of the Directing Department

Tian Zangzang, who was sitting in the front row, immediately had a smile on his face when he saw this. It seemed that his disciple was quite understanding of human nature, and he was indeed not in vain!

When the movie ended, bursts of applause burst out spontaneously in the theater.

With a "bang" sound, the cinema staff turned on the switch again, and dazzling lights suddenly filled the entire hall again.

Tian Zhuangzhuang narrowed his eyes slightly, turned to look at Wei Wu Laohuai beside him and said comfortingly:

"You made another good movie! I was indeed right. You are indeed born to eat this bowl of rice.

"I'm afraid that the day I die, the thing I'm most proud of in my life is not making a few bad movies, but having a good student like you!"

Judging from his many years of experience in the industry, the movie "Unfortunately" not only has a good reputation, but also should be a box office hit.

Basically, every baggage designed by the director was finally eliminated. Audience feedback was quite positive, and the movie-watching experience was not ordinary!

Even a picky practitioner like him thinks that "The Man on the Road" is worth watching, let alone others!

Wei Wu quickly said modestly: "Where is it! Teacher, you are serious! I am still young, and I still have a lot to learn from you in the future."

After Wei Wu finished speaking, he immediately made a gesture to Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang next to him, asking them to go up with him to thank the audience and interact with everyone.

Wei Wu made another gesture to invite Tian Zhuangzhuang to come on stage, but Tian Zhuangzhuang immediately waved his hand and said:

"You go quickly, I don't need it!"

So Wei Wu took Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang onto the stage. Both of them were proud of themselves, holding their heads high and smiling from the bottom of their hearts.

Because at the moment they took the stage, the audience was already exchanging their thoughts with the people around them.

"This movie is really good, what do you think?"

"Indeed, it's so down-to-earth and funny, my girlfriend never stopped laughing!"

"You should watch movies like this during the Chinese New Year! It's great for the whole family to come out and have fun!"

"When I fly in the future, I won't bring drinks or anything else. Liquids are not allowed on the plane. I've already remembered this."

"If I were Li Chenggong, I would definitely slap the burdock twice. The crow's mouth is so irritating!"

"Wang Baoqiang's performance is really good. I've only seen him play the silly guy before, but I didn't expect him to be able to do comedy. His acting skills are surprisingly broad!"

"Xu Zheng can do it too! This is the first time I've seen him with hair, and the boss acted it well!"

"Have you only looked at the men? Haven't you noticed that the actresses in the movie are all so beautiful? Even the guest stars are beautiful! Especially Liu Yifei and the girl who plays the mistress, they are really beautiful!"

"If there was such a beautiful mistress in reality, she would break up with her after her brain was kicked by a donkey!"

…

"thank you all!"

After Wei Wu and Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang came on stage, they took the lead in bowing to the audience as a way of thanking the audience for their enthusiastic applause.

Then the three of them made jokes and shared some tidbits and interesting things from the filming with everyone.

Then there is the regular question-and-answer session for the audience and reporters. The reporters are a little better. To be honest, you can’t guess what weird questions these audience members will ask out of the blue:

"Director Wei, where was Xu Zheng's wig made?"

"Director Wei, how many liters of milk did Wang Baoqiang drink from the bucket? Did he really drink it during the filming?"

"Director Wei, what's the name of the actress who plays the mistress? Why didn't she come to the scene today?"

…

In fact, the main reason why Yang Mi didn't come today is because "Wang Zhaojun" is about to enter the final stage, and the filming has to be completed before the Chinese New Year. Therefore, the crew will not ask for leave for the time being, so Yang Mi will naturally not be able to come today.

After Wei Wu had almost dealt with the audience and reporters, it was time to enter the highlight of the premiere.

Wei Wu made eye contact with Brother Hu who was sitting in the first row, then took the microphone and said:

"Today at the premiere of "A Man on the Road", we also invited a special guest, that is Brother Hu, the video author of "A Murder Case Caused by a Steamed Bun".

"To be honest, the current attention and popularity of "Awkward" is inseparable from Hu Ge's video and his outstanding contribution to our publicity.

"So let's invite him up and ask him to tell us a few words. Do you think that's okay?"

"good!"

The audience was very enthusiastic. To be honest, most people had only heard of Brother Hu, but few people knew what he looked like, so everyone was still quite curious.

The key point is that the video "Steamed Buns" is so popular now, and everyone wants to hear him talk about the ins and outs of making this video, as well as the conflict with Chen Kaige.

Because long before Brother Hu came, Wei Wu had already communicated with him on the phone, asking him not to respond in a hurry, but to formally apologize to Chen Kaige at today's premiere ceremony.

Of course, Wei Wu also had selfish motives. Brother Hu apologized at the premiere of "The Journey", which will definitely make headlines.

Naturally, when relevant reports mention his apology, they will also mention today's occasion, which will also promote "A Man on the Road".

Of course Brother Hu also knows, but he doesn't care. Where is an apology not an apology?

And now the only one who agrees to help him pay for the lawsuit is Wei Wu, so he must help whoever can help now!

After Brother Hu came on stage, it was easy to see that he was very nervous. His right leg kept shaking. He was facing so many people at once, and there were cameras clicking non-stop. It would be strange if he wasn't nervous!

After Brother Hu took a deep breath and adjusted a little, because he was too nervous and was afraid of forgetting the words later, he stopped talking nonsense and started dryly talking about the script he had memorized:

"Hello everyone, I am Brother Hu, the author of the video "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun".

"Taking advantage of today's occasion, I would like to solemnly apologize to Chen Kaige. I used Chen Kaige's work casually, and now I sincerely apologize to him. If my behavior has any negative impact on the film "The Promise", I would like to express my sincere apologies.”

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud clicking sound of the shutter, and the dazzling white light made Brother Hu on the stage narrow his eyes and couldn't help but stretch out his right hand to block his eyes.

Immediately, a reporter couldn't help raising his hand and asked: "Hello Brother Hu, Chen Kaige hopes that you will stand up and publicly apologize and admit the infringement, but you just apologized and it seems that you have not admitted the infringement?"

Brother Hu said firmly: "First of all, I don't have any malicious intent. I just practiced video editing techniques for the purpose of learning. I don't think this is infringement.

"Besides, it's not me who has the final say on whether the infringement is infringement, and I believe it's not his decision either. Whether it constitutes an infringement or not should be decided by the judge, and the judge hasn't made a decision yet!"

The reporter asked further: "What if the other party must ask you to apologize on the basis of admitting the infringement?"

Brother Hu immediately took it and said, "Then there's no need to talk about it. If you want to file a lawsuit, you'll file a lawsuit. You can't talk about infringement casually."

This was something Wei Wu had discussed with Brother Hu in advance. It was okay to apologize publicly. This step must be given to others.

After all, if you don't even give me a step up, then this matter won't be able to go through, and that means you're forcing people to sue you!

But in any case, the infringement cannot be admitted. Once the infringement is admitted, the other party can claim compensation openly, and the lawsuit will be lost before the lawsuit is even filed!

In fact, even if Wei Wu wanted him to say this, Brother Hu himself would never agree.

If it were more than ten or twenty years later, if Brother Hu dared to say this, he would definitely be sprayed to death.

After all, this is a definite infringement of copyright law, and there is basically nothing to distinguish.

But the problem is that the situation is different at different times. To be honest at this time, the so-called copyright protection law has not yet formed a solid foundation in China. Legally, this area is almost a gray area.

If this is considered an infringement, then among those selling pirated CDs and books that can be seen everywhere on the market today, as well as those mp3 websites that download songs for free, which one makes less money? Isn't it ten thousand times more serious than this?

Precisely because domestic copyright protection has not yet been perfected and the relevant understanding has not been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, in fact, in the eyes of most people, Brother Hu's situation is not considered an infringement at all.

If you really want to talk about it, the ones who did the most damage to the box office of "The Promise" should undoubtedly be the pirates who wholesale pirated discs.

You, Chen Kaige, don't sue them, but focus on Brother Hu, a nobody.

How should I put it? It's not just making a fuss out of a molehill, but it also means "not swatting tigers, only swatting flies".

I recommend Sanjiang and Rolling Screen's great book "I Become a Priest in North America, and the God Is Myself". At the beginning, I have to sign a devil's contract with an American official. The quality of this veteran author is guaranteed. I highly recommend it!
