New York, inside the HBO office building.

The Board of Directors is holding urgent consultations on the Writers Guild's announcement of a strike.

"The current situation is that both CBS and NBC have hit series that are not affected. ”

"And we, who use exclusive broadcasts and self-made dramas as selling points, have been hit the hardest!"

At this point, a young executive thought for a moment and raised his hand to speak.

"I recently heard that CBS's hit drama "Prison Break" is about to shoot a prequel. ”

"The producers are looking for partners because of funding issues. ”

"You say, what will happen if we rob the CBS episodes?"

"Is the producer not affected by the writers' strike?" someone asked.

The young executive shook his head, "It's a literary site, and it's extremely difficult for the work on it to form a screenplay. ”

"Literary websites?" the chairman thought for a moment, "what are the works on it?"

"Uh," the young executive mused, "but the ideas are new and the stories are curious." ”

"Are those stories suitable for adaptation?" the chairman asked.

"There are a lot of works above, and there are always some that are suitable for adaptation. ”

The young man took his laptop and came to the chairman.

The chairman looked at it for a while, then put down the mouse.

"You said the site is currently recruiting partners because of funding issues?"

"Yes. The young man replied.

"Then you go and touch it. The chairman paused for a moment and added: "We should pay attention to the advantages of the TV station over the production company, as well as the shortcomings of the other party's lack of funds." ”

"Understood. The young executive nodded, "But what's our bottom line and goal?"

The chairman stood up and watched as the writers sat downstairs in protest.

"Get as many work licenses as possible. ”

Meanwhile, the Flushing area.

Wang gradually sat in his office, looking through some of the documents he had worked so hard to collect.

Through the query information in the past few days, he already has a certain idea of how to adapt the two works.

The original book "Harem?? "The Legend of Zhen Huan" is a completely empty work, and it does not explain the specific background of the story.

Its main content is to tell the story of a "White Lotus" who gradually blackened in the battle of the harem and eventually became the master of the harem.

But...

The orientalized language and background in it make it much more difficult to adapt.

Moreover, if it is completely empty, it is not very reader-friendly.

So, embedding stories in history?

Catherine the Great of Russia is very suitable.

However, because the United States has deliberately downplayed the history of Russia.

Now, even the Eastern Front in World War II is about to become a soy sauce player in the hearts of the American people.

Because of their education, ordinary Americans have a relatively in-depth understanding of the history of Britain and France.

Depending on the social climate, the French court will not be so torn apart.

When the court lady saw that the king didn't like her, she probably found a lover or something.

And the king hid outside the door, eavesdropping excitedly...

This is the normal unfolding of the Gallic rooster.

Therefore, the only option at the moment is the United Kingdom.

After careful inquiry of information, Wang gradually discovered.

In English history, only the mother of the "Queen of Glory" Elizabeth I, Anne Boleyn, can barely qualify.

King Henry VIII of England at the time was both the father and uncle of Elizabeth I.

And Elizabeth I's cousin was her last English king, Mary I.

Anyway, it's no problem to sigh that your circle is really messy.

Annie?? Boleyn was able to become the "uncrowned king" of the European court at that time, and his scheming was not unimportant.

And the tearing war with the two queens and countless court ladies before and after is also recorded in the history books.

This woman was used as a "Harem?? The protagonist of "The Legend of Zhen Huan" may be beautified.

As for the British royal family, not to mention that they have not sued anyone for historical figures.

The recent divorce rumors of Princess Diana alone have already made them anxious.

For a long time, they shouldn't care about anything else.

As for the adaptation of "Abnormal Creature Observations", Wang gradually felt that it was not so complicated.

Because "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", which has a similar idea, is itself a classic science fiction work with great influence.

Then, in comparison, the more far-reaching and epic "Abnormal Creature Observations".

The difficulty of adaptation is mainly reflected in how to translate funny Chinese dialogues into English.

After sorting out the information and outline, Wang gradually took a deep breath.

This time, I'm going to challenge myself.

When it's a little tiring to make an adaptation of one, switch to another.

This allows for maximum brain relief.

It's not enough that after seeing Tom and Dorsey, I feel that "there are always people who want to harm me"!

So, four hours later, some readers were surprised to find.

Digging a slot, Wang Yan, who had just finished writing about the transformation of a muscular hunk, actually turned his head to write female-oriented works!

"Isn't this Nima funny? Hulk's version of Wonder Woman? or Cthulhu's version of Black Widow?"

"Wang, have you also been poisoned by feminism?"

"No! Wang seems to be serializing two books!" someone commented on Twitter.

"Won't it?

And the intimate @Neil of book friends?? Gaiman, JK?? Rowling and so on.

And the two, who are working to update "American Gods" and are writing the outline of the second "Harry Potter", have sent private messages through Twitter.

"Wang, are you crazy?"

"Switching styles with each other can relieve mental fatigue. Wang gradually replied.

Neil?? Gaiman and JK?? Rowling was speechless at the same time, and also published Wang Jian's private message.

This made the other writers serialized on the site cry out, "Come and see God, everyone!"

Of course, there are some people who do not agree with the reply.

"Human constitutions are different, and I once used to be in extreme anger and yard more than 5,000 words per hour. ”

"What is your work, I'll pay a visit. ”

"Alas, banned from the site. Say that the scale of the description is too large!"

"Damn, writing that kind of thing, I can go a day and a night without sleeping. ”

Everyone's replies quickly began to deviate from the topic.

At this moment, Tom walked into the office.

"Wang, except for Reed from Los Angeles?? In addition to Harittings, HBO also gave an offer. ”

"They also asked to meet with you for a detailed discussion. ”

Wang gradually raised his head and rubbed his temples.

"Then make an appointment and make an appointment with the two parties. ”

He smiled, "If there is competition, it is always a good thing." ”

"Isn't it?"
