On June 10, screenwriter Mong Ky Ky posted an article on social networks related to the dispute over the rights to write the screenwriter's name of the Chinese film "Mac Ly".
She said that the script written by her team is the key draft to help the project be approved, so they should have been named as co-screenwriters. However, the film crew currently only named them at the end of the film as the group implementing the original draft.
In the comments section, Ky Ky also specifically named Bach Loc, accusing the actress of taking advantage of her voice and influence to change or add a team of screenwriters to the project before the movie "Mac ly" started filming.
According to Mong Ky Ky's argument, currently, the power of actors is too great, while screenwriters become the weaker side, easily replaced or deprived of the right to recognize their efforts.
However, many people point out that the main screenwriter of "Mạc ly" is Triệu Na, who has written famous works such as "Sở Kiều truyện", "Thần tịch duyên" and "Vô ưu độ".
The main director is Lam Ngoc Phan, the person behind blockbuster movies such as "Hoa Thien Cot" and "Tam Sinh Tam The Thap Ly Dao Hoa", often known as the "parrain of historical romance films".
In a project with a famous director and screenwriter like "Mac Ly", is it reasonable for an actor to easily manipulate or decide on the screenwriting team?
What is noteworthy is the time Mong Ky Ky spoke up. On June 9, "Mac Ly" was just broadcast on CCTV-8, and the very next day she publicly criticized it. Therefore, some netizens believe that this may also be an action aimed at the right time when the film is receiving a lot of attention to polish her name.
When this topic caused even greater controversy, producer Vu Chinh spoke out to defend Bach Loc, and also publicly released screenshots of a conversation with the screenwriter of "Mac Ly".
Regarding the accusation that Bach Loc intervened to change the screenwriter right before the film started filming, Vu Chinh affirmed: "Actors of our company always value scripts, always putting scripts first.
But this time, because she trusted director Lam Ngoc Phan, from beginning to end she completely did not participate, nor did she give any opinions or discussions related to the script”.
At the same time, the content of the conversation between Vu Chinh and screenwriter Trieu Na also showed that after Trieu Na's group received the "Mac Ly" script, Vu Chinh said that the previous script had many serious problems and suggested that Trieu Na's group rewrite almost the entire script.
Meanwhile, screenwriter Ly Tong Than, who belongs to the current team of "Mac Ly", reacted even more strongly. He publicly responded to Mong Ky Ky: "There is not even a single scene of yours used. Please publish the script to confront".
