96. Chapter 96 Scene 96 The Republic of Screenwriters

"What are you going to do next?" Lei Ting looked at the empty member list and asked with dissatisfaction:

"Do you want me to help you promote it in some way?" There are only two people on this website. No matter how nice the names of President and Foreign Minister are, it is meaningless if there is no one under it. The most important thing nowadays is to recruit members. This kind of public website

Of course, we cannot take the elite route like the Hacker Covenant. The most important thing is to expand our influence in related fields.

"No, I have mentored some colleagues in the West Coast Writers Guild. I will add them first." Li Xiaole took over the keyboard and sent an email in the name of h to people he had had some friendships with at the Writers Guild forum before, "h establishment

Screenwriters Republic sincerely invites everyone to join.”

After sending these emails, I believe that new members will join the website soon. He has also mentored many new screenwriters who have not yet become famous on the West Coast Screenwriters Association website. They will definitely come to support him.

"There are still too few people." Lei Ting frowned slightly when she saw that Li Xiaole's email had only been forwarded less than twenty times. Her style is that she doesn't like to meddle in other people's business, but once she intervenes, she must get things done.

Perfect.

"Sister Tingting, please get me a virtual address. The addresses I want to post are all IP addresses in Los Angeles. Leave it to me next," Li Xiaole relaxed his shoulders and asked Lei Ting, who was full of doubts.

He smiled and said, of course he cannot compare with Lei Ting in how to control the online world, but he has his own field - the world of screenwriting.

In this field and at this time, he, Li Xiaole, is the well-deserved king.

Lei Ting, who was speechless when she saw Li Xiaole in high spirits, never expected that from this moment on, Li Xiaole would start a crazy period that lasted for several weeks. Every night when he came home, he would continue to download various programs.

Various scripts, then revised, and then uploaded in the name of "Screenwriter Republic H", like a never-ending machine, crazy and focused...

In the screenwriter's office of KBS TV station in Seoul, in front of the desk of the Mizuki drama editing team, a man with gray hair picked up the tea cup from the mahogany desk, put it on his lips and took a sip, staring at the computer screen expectantly.

"Teacher Park, how's it going? Have the results of the editing job of "The Kitten on the Rooftop" been announced?" The sweet-looking female assistant screenwriter with a freckle on her face came over and asked enviously.

"There are still three minutes until the results are announced." Teacher Park smiled modestly: "This script is good. Not only me, but also SBS's Hwang Dong-geun and MBC's Lee Woo-jun also participated in the editing. I don't know who the TV station will choose in the end.

"

"There's no need to ask. It must be you. When it comes to youth fashion dramas, among the screenwriters in MBC and KBS, which one has as much depth as your screenwriting skills in the past thirty years?"

"You little girl, you just like to exaggerate. How can you say thirty years?" Teacher Park replied with a smile, but it was obvious that he was very helpful to the assistant's flattery.

The fat middle-aged man sitting in the corner also laughed and said: "Teacher Park, don't be humble. There are only two people in Korea who can win the Outstanding Screenwriter Award three times in a row from the Broadcasting Bureau."

, when you submit the manuscript, the TV station still doesn’t like it."

While everyone was flattering Teacher Park, the time had come for the broadcasting bureau’s website to announce the reward results for the editing task of this post. Both Teacher Park and the female assistant looked forward to it. When they refreshed the page, they both suddenly

stunned.

"MBC Planning Department announced that the final selected version is the revised version of "Screenwriter Republic H"."

"Teacher Park..." the female assistant opened her mouth and asked: "Who is this Republic of Screenwriters? From SBS or KBS? Have you heard of it?"

"I didn't know..." Teacher Park's face was a little stiff. He spent a whole week revising this script, but he failed. This made him feel quite frustrated.

"I'll check his IP address. I recognize the IP addresses of the other two TV stations to see who this person is." The female assistant who was very good at computers volunteered to sit in front of the computer and found out after a while.

I got the other party's IP address and couldn't help but open my mouth: "Hey... this address seems to be from the United States."

"It's no wonder." When Teacher Park heard about the United States, his depressed mood seemed to be relieved a lot. He spread his hands and sighed: "I heard that there are many senior Korean screenwriters in major American TV stations, but there are no such ones in film companies.

When they are alive, they like to take on some editing tasks on the Internet to earn some extra money..."

"Are they Koreans in the United States?" The female assistant immediately searched in her mind and found several Korean names in the American film and television industry. There were a few actors, but the screenwriters... didn't seem to be famous.

In fact, Teacher Park is just on the same level as him, and he is also wondering in his heart, why is there such a weird name as Screenwriters Republic? If he had seen it, he would definitely be impressed, who is this person?

At the weekly meeting of "Friends" at the NBC Building in Rockefeller Center, New York, more than 20 crew members were sitting around the conference table. Everyone had just finished reading the 12 different copies of the fifth season of "Friends" on the table.

Script copywriting.

"I think the script edited by Screenwriters Republic is really great. Especially the dialogue in it is so interesting. Chandler was written brilliantly." Chief screenwriter David Curry was the first to speak.

Expressing his opinions in a deep voice, "Friends" has two chief writers and five assistant editors. David Curry, who is so bald that he only has a little hair on the back of his head, is definitely the soul of it.

"I agree, I really like the two stories he changed at the beginning." Matthew Perry, who plays Chandler, smiled and raised his hands in agreement, and then more than half of the people raised their hands in agreement.

"Am I the only one who thinks this plot change is too ridiculous?" David Schwimmer, who plays Ross, helplessly spread his hands and objected in a depressed mood.

"Come on, David and Ross have been the male protagonists for four seasons. The audience is tired of watching it. This season, Monica and Chandler should be the main characters." Lisa Kudrow, who plays Phoebe, joked with a smile.

Hold him.

"Okay, it's decided, Mark! Your finance department should quickly give this lucky guy 5,000 US dollars in royalties. He was selected on the last day of the reward. I really don't know if he is lucky or we are lucky."

David Ku smiled and ordered his colleagues.

"I don't think so." The bearded Mark from the finance department shrugged his shoulders: "The freak who edited this script doesn't need any money."

"Does he want to do charity for us?" David Curry thought this was ridiculous.

"No, he asked you two screenwriters to join his website, Screenwriters Republic." Mark spread his hands and expressed his confusion: "It's a good thing he doesn't want royalties, otherwise I really suspect that he copied Douglas's idea. This

The manuscript is really similar to the first draft that Douglas gave me before, but it is more perfect. I originally wanted to ask him to revise it before showing it to you three days later, but I didn't expect this submission to come." If it involves manuscript fees,

Then Douglas might have to complain to the writing team about plagiarism.

"You want us to join the Republic of Screenwriters?" David Curry thought this was too weird. Could it be a prank done by a screenwriter who likes The Matrix? What on earth did he want to do?

Li Xiaole, who had stayed up all night and changed countless scripts, was sleeping on the table when suddenly the website beeped. He squinted his eyes and half asleep, he heard Lei Ting talking: "There is a

A person named Park Yongzhu wants to talk to you in the website chat room, saying that he wants to invite you to join the KBS editorial department. Do you want to reply to him?"

"Leave him alone, don't even call me when Obama comes to see me!" Li Xiaole muttered in confusion.

"Who is Obama?" A big question mark appeared in Lei Ting's mind, and she continued to manage the members who continued to join on the computer. After the first night, 212 people joined the website. It has been a week now.

The number has reached 60, and there are members from various countries, including the United States, South Korea, China, and some even have European IP addresses.

What on earth was Li Xiaole doing when there was no publicity at all? Lei Ting, who knew nothing about the screenwriting industry, was filled with doubts.

She really couldn't figure out what kind of magic Li Xiaole used. If it was understandable to say that the "Save the Cat" paper was plagiarized, then how could she explain it now?

She didn't know what Li Xiaole's intention was in adapting those scripts, but every time Li Xiaole sent the revised script to an agency, he got almost a 70% response rate on the same day, and 10% would contact him within three days.

, and none of the remaining ones would directly send back his revised manuscript, but would just say that they would continue to consider it.

No matter from which angle you look at it, Li Xiaole's success rate in revising screenplays is so amazing. After reading a manuscript, he can start revising it without thinking. It seems that he doesn't have to think, a work will appear in his mind...

If he plagiarized through hacking methods, how could he plagiarize so much script data?

Lei Ting felt that there seemed to be more and more secrets about Li Xiaole, but it became increasingly unclear. She even began to suspect that Li Xiaole was not an ordinary human being at all, but some kind of alien creature.

In the small room of New Picture Film Company on the 32nd floor of Guohai Building in Chuzhe, the capital of China, Chairman Zhang Weiping was pointing at the Chinese edited manuscripts of the "Screenwriters' Republic" collected by some bad guys on the computer, including "Jade Guanyin" and "

"Hero" a long list of names, asked the middle-aged man next to me wearing a shabby jacket and heavy bags under his eyes:
Chapter completed!
