Producer Game

[Era + Entertainment + Shady + Hidden Rules + Emotional Manipulation +] When I signed the contract, I became the first pawn in this game to be eliminated. I am a writer named Sima Lin. More than half a year ago, I wrote a film and television script called "Chen Yuan" and asked my friend Yuan Zhongyi to find investors, but he never found one. At this time, my ex-wife and director Gao Feifei suddenly came to my door and said that she had helped me find an investor. The investor's name was Chen Mingzhu, and he was a big boss. I was discussing the script with Gao Feifei, and she suddenly received news that all her assets had been taken away by her lover. Despite this, she still managed to get Chen Mingzhu to interview me, and at the same time expressed her intention to reunite with me. After several conversations, I finally signed a script contract with Chen Mingzhu and received a 10% deposit of 15,000 yuan, with Gao Feifei as the director. Just after signing the contract, Chen Mingzhu's lover Fan Chunfang took the initiative to come to me and share her literary dreams and mental journey, expressing her deep "trust." After the crew was established, I was invited to join the crew to revise the script and participate in the selection of actors, while Fan Chunfang served as the producer. Just when Gao Feifei, Fan Chunfang and I were negotiating about the drama, Chen Mingzhu suddenly arrived with Yuan Zhongyi and explicitly asked to hand over the photography, lighting, art, service and other matters to Yuan Zhongyi, so Gao Feifei had no choice but to accept. Immediately afterwards, Chen Mingzhu invited me to drink again, and while he was still drunk, he proposed to give up his signature rights to Fan Chunfang. The next day, I received news that Chen Mingzhu decided to let the girl who originally did makeup become the female lead, which led to the original female lead Ai Xiaomei's suicide attempt. Before, I had met Liu Ying, a capable and decent actress, and we had a mutual affection for each other. I wanted to bring her in to play the second female lead, but I was worried that Gao Feifei might misunderstand. Yuan Zhongyi not only sidelined Gao Feifei on the set, but also deliberately pointed out the relationship between me and Liu Ying in person, and instigated Chen Mingzhu to replace the male lead and the second female lead. Liu Ying felt indignant about what happened to her friend Ai Xiaomei and voluntarily resigned from the role of the second female lead. As for me, because I was inexplicably involved in a turmoil on the set, I was mentally and physically exhausted. I was accidentally hit by a car and had to rest for more than three months before I recovered. Shortly after I was discharged from the hospital, I saw on TV that this drama had been released. The screenwriter was Fan Chunfang and the director was Yuan Zhongyi. And I seem to have forgotten that 90% of the royalties have not been received... The novel uses a film and television script as an opportunity to find investors, and uses the internal strife within the television crew as the main clue to truly describe the various shady stories and unspoken rules in the entertainment industry one by one.
