At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 779 Apologize
"When Uncle Cao called me, I happened to be comforting Nazha. The little girl didn't do anything, but because she acted in the company's play, she was lied to..."

Shen Xudong sat down, and then said the reason for taking Nazha to the banquet.

After all, this kind of private meeting is not convenient for bringing outsiders.

When Cao Huayi heard this, he answered immediately: "Indeed, this kind of behavior is too bad..."

Shen Xudong continued: "Chen Xi fell in love with Nazha at the age of 16, and then directly signed a contract with the company, so..."

Wang Changtian got up and explained: "I want to apologize for this matter, I was negligent..."

Before Shen Xudong could speak, Cao Huayi said, "It's hard for us as bosses to visit the front line in such a big company. Sometimes it's really hard for us to know what the staff under us are doing..."

Shen Xudong waved his hand: "This kind of thing is normal. If you are a star, you will definitely be hacked... President Wang doesn't need to apologize to me."

Cao Huayi answered: "That's it. The year before last, the adaptation of "Parents' Love" started, and Liu Jing was the screenwriter herself. I found an editor for her, but the editor read the two scripts written by Liu Jing and asked her to rewrite them directly. , What to say: "A good TV series, 3 minutes of small quarrel, 5 minutes of big quarrel, accidents, conflicts escalating, let the audience love to watch, the ratings are guaranteed..."

"and then?"

"Liu Jing asked me to complain, so I changed the editor and found Li Xiaoming..."

Li Xiaoming is a great screenwriter, "Desire", "BJ Man in New York", "Excellent", "Sunrise in the East and Rain in the West", "Like Fog, Like Rain and Like Wind", "Big Wrist", "The Wrong Car", "The Rebel" and many other excellent films All the movies and TV series are written by him.

"I've seen "Parents' Love"...it's a good work!"

Cao Huayi waved his hand: "Let's not talk about this now, Lao Wang..."

When Wang Changtian heard it, he immediately understood the meaning of Cao Huayi's words, turned around and bowed to Nazha: "I'm sorry, I was wrong this time..."

"it's okay no problem…"

Nazha was terrified and waved her hands in various ways...

Shen Xudong also smiled: "Let her feel the cruelty of the industry in advance... know the distress of being a star."

Wang Changtian didn't know how to answer what he said. Just as he was about to speak, Cao Huayi said, "Just say something? Why don't you give me some compensation?"

Seeing Wang Changtian's silence, Cao Huayi said again: "You told me the other day that you got the filming rights of "Four Famous Catchmen"..."

Shen Xudong answered, "'Four Famous Detectives'? Wen Ruian's 'Four Famous Catchers'?"

"Correct!"

Shen Xudong frowned: "The "Four Famous Catchers" is not easy to change. I tried it before and failed..."

"Have you tried?"

Shen Xudong nodded as a matter of course: "I am famous for my martial arts novels. The first thing I came into contact with was the screenwriting work of martial arts works. I have tried to adapt the works of Jin Gu, Liang Wen... After careful analysis, I came to the conclusion that Wen Rui'an's The work is really hard to change!"

"How to say?"

"His story lacks a clear main line. For example, "The Four Famous Detectives", there will always be extremely bloody murders. The first chapter is a continuous fighting scene, there is no cause and effect.

From the character point of view, one-sided extreme.The Four Famous Detectives are all extreme and violent in terms of their personality traits... If they were filmed according to Ruian Wen's original plot, without the support of Ruian Wen's writing skills and the support of extreme violence and pleasant artistic conception, it would be difficult for the audience to like it... So, "Four The film and television dramas of "Da Ming Catch" are basically original stories...Who is in charge of this project? "

Wang Changtian was stunned for a while before answering: "Director Chen Jiashang..."

"Then I guess it's a little difficult..."

"Can you talk?"

"You all know Zhong Lifang, right?"

"Executive CEO of Golden Harvest?"

"Yes," Shen Xudong continued: "She often chats with some creators in Hong Kong, and finds that they like to borrow elements from European and American movies... They are all interested in the superpowers of superheroes, and think this is a magic weapon to attract audiences... So , Chen Musheng made "The Whole City" and Wang Jing made "Future Police"... I guess Chen Jiashang also wants to play like this!"

……

In fact, the spiritual core of foreign superhero movies and domestic martial arts movies is interlinked.

Both emphasize that heroes use extraordinary force to punish evil and promote good, and resist the oppression of power.

The difference is only the way of expression of force. Superheroes use various magical superpowers, while knights use traditional Chinese martial arts.

The forms of expression are different, and the visual senses presented are also different. Forcibly merging them together will only be counterproductive!

Chinese magic movies were first concentrated in the field of martial arts movies!
For example, "The Hero of the Wind and Cloud Dominates the World" allows the audience to see the magical visual impact...

But Chinese Kung Fu chapters focus on freehand brushwork and ethereal, castles in the clouds and poetic landscapes...

Put on a layer of magic skin, no matter how you look at it, how awkward!

So, they turned their attention to our gods and demons.

The "Journey to the West" series includes the "Fengshen" series…

Let's not talk about how awkward the theme of patricide and growth in "Fengshen" is-lost the direction of life?
In Chinese culture, there is no premise that the goal of national life is vague and lacks direction in the general sense!

The main body of Confucian culture particularly emphasizes responsibility. What you do must contribute value to this land.

As a king, you must be wise; as a central official, you must be dedicated to the public; as a grassroots official, you must love the people like a child; To make money and contribute to the treasury.

If you don’t do this, it’s a cultural error, and you’ll be criticized.

At least in the context of Chinese culture, it is not true. If it is not true, it will directly make the whole story unreliable.

What is the plot of "Fengshen" like?
"Hamlet" - Shakespeare has really supported directors all over the world from the original recognition of the thief as the father to the loss of the way and the recognition of the ancestors.

I don’t mention this, let’s just talk about costumes, props and boasting industrial special effects...

In fact, it is the Yin Shang version of "Lord of the Rings" and "Game of Thrones". Many scenes are arranged in the shadow of "Lord of the Rings" and "Warcraft"...

It's not that it can't be adapted, after all, "Fengshen" itself was edited by Xia Jiba, but you must at least conform to everyone's inherent impression of ancient Chinese legends and myths!

If this thing was released a few years earlier, it would definitely be a godsend. It's a pity that it has caught up with the aesthetic upgrade!

In fact, if you check the box office target of "Fengshen", you can see that his target is a global audience - the trilogy is tens of billions in the mainland and 150 billions worldwide!
……

"So, you mean that you don't like "Four Famous Arrests"?"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "Judging from the market feedback of "Embroidered Spring Knife" and "Jianyu Jianghu", martial arts are becoming less popular, and adding other factors may lead to greater gains..."

"Four Famous Catchers" is a big production no matter what. In Guangguang's earlier ace series, Nazha is a newcomer. Being able to take over this kind of movie is definitely not an invalid performance...

Speaking of this, he glanced at Nazha who was eating with his head down: "Don't eat it, thank you, Mr. Wang, "Four Famous Catchers", big IP, high-quality resources!"

Nazha hurriedly raised her head, got up and held up her wine glass: "Mr. Wang...Thank you!"

Wang Changtian smiled: "It should be me who wants to thank you. You are the hottest new star now. With you joining, hundreds of millions of publicity fees have been saved!"

Nazha drank it down, Shen Xudong asked her to sit down, and then chatted with Wang Changtian about movies...

"Let's not talk about martial arts movies... I always wanted to be a monster type."

"Ghosts?"

"Mainly based on the themes and stories of strange powers and gods..."

"This is difficult..."

It’s really hard to do. The most typical type of ghosts in Hong Kong movies is the magic kung fu movie...

That is, all kinds of "zombies"...

"So, I wanted to combine animated characters...like Roger Rabbit kind of..."
