Chapter 42: The Dilemma of Jirojin Origin Movie
In fact, Lin Xin's anger is just ridicule, although he thinks that this book "People Grow and Hate Water Changdong" is a bit tear-jerking, but in terms of plot, it is not bad at all.
Although this story is different from what people are used to and are familiar with, after careful consideration, I found that there is still a certain degree of reasonableness.
In order to perform, he read a lot of literature.
Those materials, where are the online novels comfortable to read, almost all of them are in classical Chinese, chewing words.
It is recorded in "Erlang Treasure Scroll", "Huimin Earth Relief Heart Sutra", "Journey to the West", "Romance of the Fengshen", and "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", and there are countless scripts, tracks, and folk legends.
The iconic third heavenly eye on his forehead makes him unique, and the source can be traced back to the ancient Shu King Silkworm Cong, which is the result of the belief in "Chongmu".
"Although the story takes place after Agarwood saves his mother, the content told in this Fuxi Water Mirror is very complete, and it seems that it should be able to cover Yang Jian's life. ”
Lin Xin vaguely felt that he had found a treasure!
Among the many gods and demons shaped by myths and legends, Erlang God is impressive.
Although this character does not appear much, his arrogant, high-handed, and vicious characteristics are enough to impress people.
In fact, the image of Erlang God Yang Jian was not created overnight in "Journey to the West" or "Romance of the Gods", but like Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, it was accumulated from generation to generation, and was finally given by the famous work "Journey to the West"!
The novel "Journey to the West" is the final finalization of the Journey to the West story, and as an important character in it, the image of Erlang God is also finalized at this moment.
Whether it is personal appearance, or social relationships such as family, friends, and teachers, and supernatural powers have been described more completely and in detail.
Now people's main impression of Erlang God comes from "Journey to the West", and the rest of the works and legends can only be supplemented.
It's just that when filming a movie, I definitely won't directly shoot Erlang God's role in Journey to the West, it will be another linkage after the gathering of gods and goddesses!
What Lin Xin wants to shoot is the origin story of Erlang God, and this is precisely the part that is lacking in folklore, historical documents, operas, and novels, and it is up to the screenwriters to complete it themselves.
Nezha has an advantage in this point, at least three years and six months of pregnancy has been described, and only needs to change the background slightly.
Just like superhero movies, they are by no means directly filmed in the original comic book story, and they need to be appropriately modified for the big screen.
"The screenwriters should be asked to take a look at Qin Chuan's novel, it should be inspiring!"
Lin Xin looked at the time on his phone, it was only ten o'clock in the evening.
The editors must have stayed up late at work, and definitely hadn't slept yet.
So he recommended in the work group: "Editor Xu, if you are still entangled in Yang Jian's story, just take a look at Huayue.com's "People Grow and Hate Water Changdong", which tells the story of Yang Jian's apprenticeship when he was a child. ”
After that, no one paid any attention to him.
Lin Xin could only get up silently and start doing simple fitness exercises in the living room.
Although Erlang God is a handsome young man with a white face in terms of literary image, he must make the character masculine enough on the screen and must convey a trustworthy message to the audience.
Basically, you won't show your muscles, but you must have a tall and straight posture, otherwise it won't look majestic enough.
……
In the office building of Blaze Film and Television, only a few houses have their lights on.
Except for the footsteps of security guards patrolling each floor, the entire building was silent.
This is the norm for film and television workers.
Staying up late, working overtime, and staying up all night has become commonplace, and it has directly become time in America.
"Come on, let's continue to change, the director and producer are still not satisfied. ”
A middle-aged man pulled his hair and slammed the printed script on the table with a "snap".
Another screenwriter took out a cigarette, lit it with a lighter and began to smoke violently.
I can't remember that this is the first dozens of versions of the script, and each version of the script has been greatly adapted.
Now because of the script, the entire crew can't start, and the lost funds and delayed time are too much!
"Lao Xu, when you say what kind of script the director wants, he always says that he can't hand it in, and he can't say it when they ask for their opinions and opinions. ”
Xu Xiuxian, Jiang Bin, and Zeng Guang are not rookie screenwriters, but they are all senior screenwriters in the industry.
The Golden Bull Award has won many awards, and he has also written similar martial arts and fairy tale scripts.
Otherwise, Flame Pictures would not have been able to hire them to be the screenwriters of the Erlang God Origin movie, because they believed in their ability.
Originally, the script had been finalized.
However, due to the global box office explosion of the mythical universe movie "Nezha in the Sea", the company's boss and producer have stricter requirements for the follow-up single-person films, and they can't drag down the whole.
Under the requirements of excellence, the script naturally becomes a weakness.
Rather than waiting for the end of filming to do a second large-scale reshoot, it is better to finalize the script in advance.
Xu Xiuxian: They don't know how many late nights they have survived, their hair is falling down one by one, and they are under a lot of pressure!
Jiang Bin picked up the phone, glanced at the message in the microchat, and said, "Lao Xu, look at the phone." Kobayashi recommended a web novel to us, saying that we could read it. ”
"What kind of novel are you reading when your eyebrows are burned!" Xu Xiuxian's temper was a little irritable.
He said that this novel was written about Yang Jian, and there was a background description of Yang Jian's childhood, which may give us a reference. Zeng Guang really didn't have a problem, "Don't underestimate the online articles, some online articles are actually quite good." ”
It's nice to be able to grab a life-saving straw now, and you can pick anywhere.
Xu Xiuxian only went down the stairs after hearing these words.
It is difficult to write Yang Jian's origin story well, but he wants to see how many pounds and taels the author has, and he can actually complete what the three of them can't complete!
"People grow and hate Shui Changdong? Does the title of this book have anything to do with Yang Jian?"
The book has to be read, whether to complain about it or complain about it.
Three well-known screenwriters in the industry sat in the conference room at this time, each holding their mobile phones, carefully reading the content of the novel.
Almost none of them read the reviews.
The main reason is that I don't have time, and secondly, I feel that my tastes may be different from those of online readers.
My honey, his arsenic.
At the beginning of the novel, the three senior screenwriters couldn't help but raise their eyes and look at each other.
"Such a Yang Jian!"
"There will be failure, there will be sadness, human nature and divinity are in line!"
"This author is really interesting, he has two brushes. ”
Yang Jian was originally a half-human and half-god, but his life seemed to be smooth sailing, and he did not encounter any other setbacks except for the ruin of his young family.
The most taboo thing in making movies is Pingchuan, and you have to find some waves for Yang Jian.
Now Qin Chuan's novel has suddenly made them put away their underestimate mentality, and truly treat them equally, hoping to learn some strengths from it!
