Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Title of the Play "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"!
Hua Wenliang is the most well-known martial artist in China, and has created ten works in his career, eight novels and two novellas, all of which have been adapted into film and television dramas, and several of the most representative works have been repeatedly remade.
Bai Qingyan is actually a reader of Hua Wenliang, and has read all his works, even now, in order to relieve the pressure of creation, he will occasionally flip through Hua Wenliang to relieve pressure, without reading from scratch, just take a book from the shelf, and turn to a certain page casually to read it, without any plot obstacles.
Bai Qingyan loves his novella "The Sword of the Plain Girl" set in the context of the dispute between Chu and Han.
The story begins with Zhang Liang's assassination of Qin Shi Huang and ends with the Hongmen Banquet, which fictionalizes a female swordsman with superb swordsmanship who chooses to help Liu Bang fight against Xiang Yu because of her emotional bond with Zhang Liang, and at the Hongmen Banquet, she kidnaps Yu Ji and helps Liu Bang get out.
The ending is that the plain female swordsman is tired of the power struggle and chooses to wander the rivers and lakes.
This also laid the groundwork for Zhang Liang's subsequent successful retirement.
When "The Plain Girl Sword" was adapted into a TV series, with the approval of Mr. Wenliang, it was expanded before and after.
Bai Qingyan was moved to adapt this martial arts, but Zhuyu was in front of him, and he didn't want to pick up people's teeth, so he decided to jump out of the framework of Chinese Wenliang martial arts and write a different martial arts drama.
Similar to a writer, you need to be good at finding inspiration from all aspects: daily life, other movies and TV shows, other people's, and chatting with friends......
At this time, facing Su Manling and Gu Qingmei, two experienced famous screenwriters, Bai Qingyan wanted to discuss the work of the bank out of professional instinct.
Gu Qingmei said: "I also thought about writing martial arts, a unit drama about the Six Doors Detective, in terms of plot setting, take that kind of reversal style, and all kinds of unexpected endings." ”
"That's a good idea. Bai Qingyan praised, "If it is done well, it will be very topical." ”
Gu Qingmei said embarrassedly: "But no one is looking for me to write this kind of script now." ”
Bai Qingyan sighed: "Even old guys like us can't escape the shackles of genre, which is another reason why Mulan and I want to be a screenwriter's studio." ”
Gu Qingmei nodded.
Yu Sheng'an then continued: "Teacher Bai, what style of martial arts drama do you want to write?"
Bai Qingyan said: "It is related to history, similar to "Water Margin", which is fictional and deduced within the framework of historical facts, like Mr. Hua Wenliang's "Poetry and Sword Roaring Tang Dynasty". ”
Yu Sheng'an nodded and said, "I have an idea, let's see if it can be done." ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes, including Cao Mulan and Liang Huaizhu, were focused on him.
Everyone knows that he is good at writing songs and is proficient in lyrics, but the story of the script is ......
That's something completely different.
With this kind of question, everyone waited for his follow-up together.
Putting aside his status as a big boss and his status as a super popular strength idol, his unfathomable talent is enough to attract everyone's attention.
"Teacher Yu, tell me about it. Bai Qingyan said.
Yu Sheng'an had already prepared the manuscript and said: "My story happened in the Southern Song Dynasty, with the 'shame of Jingkang' as the coordinates of the times, and the starting point is to start from Qiu Chuji passing by Niujia Village......
Of course, everyone here doesn't understand the stalk of "everything starts with Qiu Chuji passing by Niujia Village", but this does not affect Yu Sheng'an to narrate his story.
He started from Qiu Chuji's acquaintance with Yang Tiexin and Guo Xiaotian and named their unborn children Guo Jing and Yang Kang, talked about the eighteen-year gambling contract between the Jiangnan Seven Monsters and Qiu Chuji, and then went to the Jiangnan Seven Monsters to go to the desert to find Guo Jing and teach martial arts, and then talked about Guo Jing's return to the Central Plains and his acquaintance with Huazi Huang Rong, a woman dressed as a man, and then said how the two skillfully fought Yang Kang's subordinates, and how they coincidentally apprenticed to the Northern Beggar, Hong Qigong......
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" Yu Sheng'an has read the original book several times, and I have also watched various adapted TV series several times, and the storyline has long been familiar with it.
When everyone heard the statements of the East Evil, the West Poison, the Southern Emperor, the Northern Beggar, and the Zhongshentong, there was a very strange expression on their faces.
Bai Qingyan said: "Are these five absolute ones arranged according to the five elements?"
Teacher Bai heard it. Yu Sheng smiled.
"I've done something similar before, but it's not as clever as yours. Bai Qingyan explained and asked, "Do you already have a full version of this story?"
"It's been in my head many times. ”
Bai Qingyan nodded and said, "Then let's do this for our next project, it's very epic." ”
Su Manling continued: "If this drama is really made, the heroine will be on fire, too personal." ”
Gu Qingmei said: "It's obviously a story of a rich and handsome man and a white rich beauty, but it sounds like a rich daughter falls in love with a poor boy, oh no, the male protagonist is mediocre, right?"
Yu Shengan nodded with a smile, and secretly praised in his heart: "These people are worthy of being screenwriters, and their ability to grasp the key points one by one is too strong." ”
Cao Mulan asked at this time, "Is there a title for the play?"
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Yu Sheng'an replied.
"The name?"
Yu Sheng'an explained: "The name comes from a poem: cherish the Qin Emperor and Han Wu, slightly lose the literary talent, and the Tang Dynasty and Song Ancestor are slightly less coquettish. A generation of Tianjiao, Genghis Khan, only knows how to bend the bow and shoot the eagle. The past, the number of romantic characters, and the ...... of the present"
After the rest of his life, everyone in the room showed a look of shock on their faces, and the courage of these few words ...... It's also too big, and there is a kind of domineering spirit that looks down on ancient and modern heroes.
After a moment of silence, Cao Mulan said: "Then we will regard this drama as the first drama of the company's establishment, and we will control the work ourselves?"
Yu Sheng'an said: "That's what I mean. ”
The two bosses of the company agreed on the same opinion, and the project was decided.
"Next, polish the script first. Cao Mulan said, "Teacher Yu, just you and Lao Bai, the two main writers, I will find you two assistant screenwriters, do you think it's okay?"
"No problem. Yu Sheng'an has no opinion, although he is familiar with the whole story of the Condor shooting, but the specific implementation of scenes, props and dialogues requires the participation of professionals.
Bai Qingyan said with a smile: "Then Teacher Yu has to work hard, and he has to make the outline of the story first." ”
"Hmm. Yu Sheng'an nodded.
Gu Qingmei suddenly said: "Teacher Yu, Sister Mulan, Teacher Bai, I am also quite interested in this story, and the part of the heroine's dialogue can be handed over to me." ”
Cao Mulan smiled: "I wanted to say it, I was afraid that it would affect your work plan, and considering that I was an assistant screenwriter, it would be a bit overkill for you......"
Gu Qingmei said: "It is a blessing to be able to be an assistant to Teacher Yu and Teacher Bai, and it is definitely not overkill." ”
Cao Mulan glanced at Yu Sheng'an, and the latter said: "Cheng, I originally needed an experienced female screenwriter." ”
The crowd chatted for a while, exchanged contact information, and then dispersed.
At the first meeting, the project of "Shooting the Condor" was encountered, which was of great significance to Yu Sheng'an's view.
Perhaps, this is because the plan can't catch up with the change, because of Cao Mulan's entry, some plans have to be advanced, but his current focus will still be on music.
In addition to continuing to promote new songs by yourself, you must also start digging more new people.
Today, he took the initiative to send a message to Gu Fei, a young man from Greentown in Gui Province and his opponent in the top four of the "Good Cantonese" group, inviting him to join his company.
The other party said that he would seriously consider it and give him a reply within three days.
After all, after staying in a city for so many years, many things are deeply ingrained, and before Yu Sheng'an invited him, at least five companies had contacted him, all of which were politely declined.
Now that Yu Sheng'an personally sent out the invitation, the weight was unusual, so he decided to think about it carefully.
Later, Yu Shengan received a call from his sister Yu Xiaoqiao again.
She reported to her brother on the phone that her results had come out.
"Isn't it the 26th?" Yu Sheng'an was curious.
"Yes, but Yanda and Tsinghua have contacted me privately, suggesting that I can choose a major. My sister's tone was calm, "With my previous conservative assessment, there should be no problem." ”
By the way, Yu Xiaoqiao conservatively estimated the score at 715 points.
Yu Sheng'an said: "Yanda is okay, Tsinghua is also good, you can choose the major." ”
"Hmm. ”
