Chinese screenwriters apparently watched the Hollywood writers strike with interest.
it seems they learned some lessons as well.
1. Chinese film and TV writers are gathered in Beijing to discuss how they can get what's coming to them. Their major concern - money, keeping their rights of authorship. You gotta protect what's yours.
2. If you don't protect yourself, someone will take your stuff and call it their own. The group of 80 film and tv writers are discussing how to better protect themselves from copyright infringement. If you don't have a plan, you're going to wish you had. Imagine, the Chinese worrying about their ideas being stolen.
