A healing writer? No, it's a depressing writer!

Chapter 269 His existence makes the literary world shine! Do you need a background to make it in the world? The writer's spirit of never giving up!
In any industry, seniority is the key. Sometimes talent is not that useful, and sticking together for warmth is the norm. An appropriate phrase to describe it is -

"To get involved, you need power."

You think that literary masters are upright and incorruptible, they do not eat worldly food and will not bow down for a few pieces of silver.

But in fact, the literary writers——

Who is willing to be inferior to others?

Who can resist the temptation to leave their name in history?

It doesn’t matter how much you appreciate it in private, but when it comes to discussions about literary orthodoxy, you must be extremely cautious.

Obviously, Jiang Hai has no say in discussions of this level, even though his talent is second to none in today's literary world. Not to mention that no one among the younger generation can match him, even the older generation of writers cannot suppress his brilliance.

but!

Young people are still young people after all, and their qualifications are still shallow.

Even though Jiang Hai's appearance has made the contemporary literary world aware of a new literary genre called "tragic realism", in the end -

He has someone above him!
Compared with Jiang Hai's weak power, the literary masters who set the rules, the leaders of the Writers Association -

There is really no one above them!
Jiang Hai also knew that many things were beyond his control. All he could do was to write good books and scripts.

Instead of competing for those illusory honors, it is better to calm down and study your own work with peace of mind. After all,

Only works can prove everything!
Those illusory honors may be the result of power struggles and weighing the pros and cons.

But the audience’s word of mouth will never lie!
In the dormitory.

Jiang Hai lit up a cigarette and carefully checked the manuscript of "Dying to Survive", sorting out the framework of the entire film's plot:
"First of all, Cheng Yong is the owner of the Indian God Oil Shop. He has an ex-wife who married a successful man. Policeman Cao Bin is his ex-wife's younger brother."

The movie "Dying to Survive" is indeed a tragedy, but in a sense, it is a story about a small person from the bottom of society who changes his fate against all odds. However, the plot goes to the later stage. The small person who originally only had money in his eyes, after experiencing the separation and death of his relatives and friends, begins to gradually reflect on the meaning of life. After experiencing a series of heartbreaking events.
He decided to use his meager strength to give back to the people around him!

In other words, the movie "Dying to Survive" not only describes the current situation of a group of cancer patients at the bottom of society, but also tells the growth story of a small person.
This kind of movie can really arouse the empathy of ordinary people!

"The plot has tension. From a structural perspective, the entire script is divided into three sections. Cheng Yong's transformation in humanity begins with the death of his fellow patient and part-time employee, Lu Shouyi."

After confirming again and again that there is no problem with the script.

Jiang Hai decisively packaged the final draft of the script of "Dying to Survive" into a compressed package and sent it to the official collection email addresses of Shanghai Film Studio and Chenghai Theatre Academy. In the compressed package, he also included a brief biography of each character.

Look at the background prompt [Sent successfully, we will review your script within 48 hours] message reminder.

There was a hint of expectation in Jiang Hai's eyes:
"I want to see rivers of blood."

I looked at my watch and it was already 3:30 in the morning. Normal people would have already fallen asleep at this time, but for a night owl——

This timing is just right.

Jiang Hai sat up from the competition chair and stretched his body vigorously:
"Comfortable."

It is also the time when rivers and seas stretch their strong limbs.

He glanced over and happened to see Yang Wei sleeping soundly, with toilet paper scattered beside his bed.

The trash cans of adolescents are always filled with crumpled tissues.

As for the reason?
Naturally, I cannot go into detail.

"Half a pack of paper is gone in one night? That's a lot of firepower."

With nothing to do, Jiang Hai walked to the fat man's bed and woke him up from his deep sleep:
"Fatty, wake up, wake up quickly"

The fat man opened his eyes sleepily, not knowing what was happening:

"What are you doing?"

"Are you asleep?"

"What do you think???"

"It's okay, I just wanted to see if you were asleep." Jiang Hai looked at the fat man who was half asleep and gradually regaining consciousness, and nodded with satisfaction, "Since you are asleep, I feel relieved. Don't think too much. Good night~"

I looked at Jiang Hai who woke me up, then lay down on the bed with peace of mind and fell into a deep sleep.

Then I felt my sleepiness gradually fading away, and my mind gradually becoming clearer at four o'clock in the morning.

At this moment, the fat man could hardly control his emotions:
"You are really a beast."

No matter how famous he is in the outside world, in the final analysis, Jiang Hai is still just a student.

As summer turns to autumn, the temperature has dropped without us noticing.

Last week, it was still a weather suitable for wearing short sleeves. I would sweat even when walking on the street in a vest.

This week, the temperature dropped by more than ten degrees, and I really wanted to wrap myself in a layer of cotton clothes.

These days, Jiang Hai has been completing his studies step by step and enjoying this precious time on campus.

There is a saying that goes -

“One cannot have youth and the feeling of youth at the same time.”

If you haven't experienced it, it's really hard to understand the carefree feeling of being in school.

For most office workers——

When I was a student, I would play ball in the playground and sweat profusely. Then I would go back to the dormitory and take a refreshing cold shower. Then I would walk to the windowsill where I hung clothes to open a can of ice cola facing the afterglow of the sun. Then I would drink the cool cola in one gulp and all the fatigue in my body would be swept away. My favorite people would be at school and my best brothers would be by my side.

We are tired of this kind of life in student days. Only when we enter the society can we know the preciousness of this moment.

“One cannot understand the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.”

Because he didn't want to regret it in the future, Jiang Hai followed his usual principles -

Living in the moment!

I definitely go to the Internet cafe, but I don’t go there as often as before.

He no longer skipped classes. Compared to skipping classes, Jiang Hai cared more about the knowledge that could enter his mind.

The days went from being tedious to being ordinary, and Jiang Hai was also enjoying it.

In classrooms.

Jiang Hai looked at the hypothesis proposed in the book and fell into deep thought:
"If a person is operated on by an evil scientist, his brain is cut off from his body and placed in a tank filled with nutrient solution to keep the brain alive. The nerve endings of the brain are connected to a computer, which transmits information to the brain according to the program so that he can maintain the illusion that everything is completely normal. For him, it seems that people, objects, and the sky still exist, and his own movements and body sensations can be input."

"Most importantly, this brain can also have its memory intercepted (memories of brain surgery are intercepted, and various environments and daily life that he may have experienced are input). He can even be input with code to 'feel' that he is reading an interesting and absurd text here."

"Then the question is—"

“How do you make sure you’re not in that situation?”

Logically speaking, this theory about the "brain in a vat" seems to be impeccable.

This thing is like the 'Zuowang Dao' -

How can you tell whether the environment you are in now is a dream or reality?
That is, Jiang Hai began to think about the truth of this hypothesis and how to find the difference between dreams and reality.

The fat man's words broke his defense:

"If this assumption is true."

"So her rejection of me was arranged by someone?"

You've got your brain dug out, but you're still thinking about that little thing about your crotch? ? ?

Fatty's remarks were immediately criticized by Jiang Hai:
"A dog that licks the door will not die!"

For some people, the dog-licking attribute is engraved in their bones.

Even if the other party has told him face to face:
"I really don't have any feelings for you at all, not at all!"

Even though the other party had been deeply hurt by his letter, his reply to the other party was still only three simple and direct words:
"I do not believe."

Obviously, fat people are this kind of people who will not give up until they hit the wall.

Just as Jiang Hai wanted to complain about the fat man's despicable behavior:

"Can you please stop being a dog and be a human being in the future?"

Unexpectedly, when he was about to speak passionately, a sudden message on his phone interrupted his speech:

"Mr. Jiang Hai? I'm from the Copyright Department of Shanghai Film Studio. We would like to talk to you about your original script "Dying to Survive".

Looking at this text message invitation sent from a private number.

Jiang Hai smiled, with a strange look in his eyes:
"finally come"

In fact, no matter whether it is Jiang Hai's works or scripts, anything produced by Jiang Hai rarely has copyrights that cannot be sold.

Whether it is a literary work or a film or television script.

Whether it is opera, drama or animation director.

It can be said that Jiang Hai has proven his strength in almost all aspects, from literature to film and television!

I will not go into detail about the works that have been filmed before.

To this day, Jiang Hai still has a movie being filmed in a Korean film and television studio. This movie is adapted from a literary work, and this literary work was also the masterpiece that caused a sensation some time ago and almost set off a social change in South Korea.

"Suwon"!
Everything is going according to plan.

Just when Jiang Hai thought that this time, "Dying to Survive" would go as smoothly as usual, and it would sell the copyright like "The Crucible" and "Hope", and then be put into production at the film and television production base, just when Jiang Hai had already put down his hanging heart
But reality gave him a heavy blow!
city center.

Next to the bustling CBD building.

A cafe with a slightly petty bourgeoisie atmosphere.

"So what you mean?" Jiang Hai put out the cigarette in his hand, narrowed his eyes, and stared at the two people in front of him with a slightly dangerous look, "is that you want to buy the copyright of "Dying to Survive" in my hands, but don't give me a credit?"

“Can I understand it this way?”

"You think I'm a ghostwriter, and a ghostwriter who doesn't deserve to have a signature?"

There were two people sitting in front of Jiang Hai.

One is a senior executive of the Beijing Film Studio, a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance, well-dressed, and wearing a Patek Philippe watch. At first glance, he looks like a wealthy or noble man.

The other one is a woman who looks relatively young. You don’t need to know her name. You only need to know that her father is a giant in the Chinese film and television industry and a well-deserved underground leader in today’s film industry.

Han Sanping.

"Don't say such harsh words." The middle-aged man smiled, then took out a bank card and pushed it in front of Jiang Hai. "You can think of it as a business deal. We will use one million to buy the author's signature of "Dying to Survive" from you. You get the profit, and we get the fame."

“Best of both worlds isn’t it?”

The so-called sale must be based on the premise that both parties are willing.

The other party wanted to buy Jiang Hai's script and then give the script to the woman in front of him.

But Jiang Hai was not willing to do so.

"First of all, the book 'Dying to Survive' is definitely worth more than one million."

"Secondly, why would you use my work to help others?"

To put it in simple terms, once the script is bought and given away, it means that the script of "Dying to Survive" has no connection with Jiang Hai anymore. Jiang Hai is no longer the original author of "Dying to Survive". The original author of "Dying to Survive" -

It became the woman in front of me.

In fact, such operations are very common in the scientific research and film and television industries. Talented authors are responsible for producing results, and powerful backers are responsible for purchasing these results to pave the way for their successors.

Why do you see some people traveling around every day without any effort, but their resumes are very impressive?

You can publish SCI papers in junior high school.

There are more than ten scientific research papers in high school with an impact factor of over 10.

While most university students are still worrying about their graduation thesis, these people have already traveled to the United Nations to have dinner with the elites from Harvard and Cambridge.

It's not because they are really great, they are really geniuses.

But because
The people behind them are working hard.

Obviously, this is the situation Jiang Hai is facing now.

"We can discuss the price. As long as you agree, we will give you a satisfactory number." The middle-aged man took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Hai. "Do you want two million, three million, or four million?"

"In short, you can fill in the price, we just want the full copyright of 'Dying to Survive'."

If it was Jiang Hai a year ago, if the other party offered a sky-high price of four or five million, he might really give in.

After all, a few million was a lot for Jiang Hai at that time.

It's really an astronomical figure.

But unfortunately, they met Jiang Hai a year later.

Not to mention that he has four or five best-selling books, Jiang Hai doesn't even care about this little bit of money.

Just the fact that you let a well-known writer serve as a well-known screenwriter to act as a ghostwriter for others is an insult to their dignity.

Jiang Hai will definitely not allow it!

Although his voice was lowered, his eyes were already showing uncontrollable anger:

"That"

"What if I don't agree?"

It's like he has conquered the whole world.

The middle-aged man in front of him spread his hands indifferently:

"Mr. Jiang Hai, you also know——"

"The script of 'Dying to Survive' is a very sensitive genre. I'll be frank. If you don't have a certain amount of power behind you, it's impossible to start filming this type of script."

“Even if a film and television company is willing to take over and spend a huge amount of money and put all their efforts into filming this script, you have to understand that without the approval of certain people, this movie will never pass the review and be released in theaters.”

"You don't want these manuscripts you worked so hard to write to become waste paper, do you?"

The words have been made very clear -

If you don't sell me the script of "Dying to Survive", "Dying to Survive" will never pass the review in China in this lifetime. I will strangle you at the source of the movie's release. No matter how exciting your story is, no matter how intriguing your plot is, this movie will never be scheduled for release in China.

If you sell the script to me, not only can I get "Dying to Survive" approved in China, I can also let you get a sum of money as a reward for your hard work as a ghostwriter.

Good or bad, choose for yourself.

This was the first time Jiang Hai encountered such a thing——

Even if I don't want to sell it, you have to force me to sell it?

I don't know whether to be happy or angry.

After hearing the middle-aged man's story, Jiang Hai laughed and clapped his hands:
"Okay, great"

Jiang Hai's expression changed from gloomy at the beginning to joy.

The middle-aged man's joy was beyond words.

He immediately asked:
"So Mr. Jiang Hai agrees?"

Just as he was about to shout out the words "Happy cooperation".

Unexpectedly, Jiang Hai on the other side changed the subject.

"Draft?"

As if he couldn't believe his ears, the middle-aged man frowned and looked at him:
"You, what did you say?"
