Li Yalian has already thought about it, she is looking for a job, and then writing something at the same time, practicing her writing first, and after accumulating to a certain extent, she will write the script of Gu Long's novel, and then prepare for filming. This is her dream, for the sake of her dream, she doesn't care about work anymore, it's naturally a good thing to find a stable job with a higher grade, it doesn't matter if she can't find it, as a Chen Shi woman, she no longer worries about money.

Chen Shi naturally hoped that Li Yalian would not be tired outside, so he vigorously supported her, and even sent tens of thousands of yuan to her family.

Li Yalian started to prepare now, of course, this is just a practice, because she knows that she is only a high school student, and she doesn't even know the basic template of the script, who would believe it if she wants to write a good script? But she didn't care, she walked back and forth in front of Chen Shi with Gu Long's book, and her mind was brewing.

Chen Shi spread out the paper, held the pen, and waited for Li Yalian to speak.

He saw that Li Yalian was holding "Tianya Mingyue Knife" in her hand, so he asked: "Don't you write Xiao Li Feidao?" Xiao Li Feidao is the most famous, if you want to remake Gu Long's book, the first choice should of course be "Amorous Swordsman Ruthless Sword", why choose "Tianya Mingyue Knife". ”

Li Yalian said: "Xiao Li Feidao is suitable for making a commercial film, and I want to make a literary film." Think about it, Gu Long's novels have made so many movies, each of which is a martial arts film that fights back and forth, and I want to make it naturally different from others, if Gu Long's novel is made into a literary film, what kind of situation do you think?"

When Chen Shi heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, he didn't know if Li Yalian's brain was too big or she was too literate? After a pause, he asked: "Martial arts is martial arts, how can you make a literary film? Will it make it impossible to become literary, and it will be bad if you make it four? You still make it too mysterious, and you have never seen others shoot like this?"

Li Yalian stopped, looked at Chen Shi and argued: "How could it not be? Do you know "Swordsman in Shuangqi Town"? Do you know "East Evil and West Poison"? These are all literary and artistic martial arts films, using the shell of martial arts to wrap literary films, in essence, they all discuss human nature or people's realistic feelings, and Gu Long's novels are most suitable for filming like this. ”

Chen Shi hadn't seen much of the two movies Li Yalian said, but after thinking about it carefully, he suddenly thought that there was a famous movie called "The Grandmaster", which was a kung fu movie on the shell, but the core was literary and artistic, and the king of sunglasses played a literary tone, which could fascinate a lot of literary youth. At the beginning, Chen Shi also went to watch "The Grandmaster", although he thought the picture was very good-looking and the lines were very stylish, but because the fragmented plot really made him not interested, he didn't take it seriously.

As soon as Li Yalian defended, Chen Shi had nothing to say, after all, this was Li Yalian's own business, he just had the right to make some suggestions, and of course he didn't mean to make decisions for her.

Chen Shi had no opinion, so he urged her: "Okay, no? Hurry up, my pen has been picked up for a long time, and you haven't said a word yet." ”

Li Yalian said unhurriedly: "You write your name first." ”

Chen Shi did so, and Li Yalian asked him to write out the main characters. The main characters Chen Shi only knew one protagonist and one Yan Nanfei, and all the others were said by Li Yalian, such as Mingyuexin, such as Gongziyu and so on.

Although "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" is not too long, there are still a lot of main characters, about a dozen, not a lot at all, and these characters play a very heavy role in the book. After writing the main characters, Li Yalian asked him to write an overview and write the main central idea. Of course he didn't know this, it was completely dictated by Li Yalian, and he wrote it word by word.

The story of "The Moon Knife at the End of the World" is simple and simple, and complex and complicated. It is a sequel to Gu Long's other work "The Prodigal Son of the Border City", in which the protagonist Fu Hongxue is already middle-aged. tells the story of a famous man who occupies great wealth and supreme authority in the rivers and lakes, and is also the head of the martial arts, Yan Nanfei, who is the first in the list of celebrities in the rivers and lakes, with fame, fortune and wealth, as his stand-in, and sends him and his subordinate Ming Yuexin (Mrs. Zhuo) to assassinate Fu Hongxue. Fu Hongxue defeated Yan Nanfei twice but did not kill him. Gongzi Yu also created a legend about the world's first secret weapon, the Peacock Feather, and the people in the rivers and lakes were tempted to fight for this weapon and died one after another. He sent his subordinate Zhuo Yuzhen to be the mistress of Qiu Shuiqing, the owner of Peacock Feather, and then washed Peacock Villa in blood. Qiu Shuiqing, who did not know the truth, entrusted Zhuo Yuzhen to Fu Hongxue before he died, but Fu Hongxue recognized her true face from Zhuo Yuzhen's actions. With perseverance, he killed the killers sent by Gongziyu, and finally came to Gongziyu's residence and killed Yan Nanfei, who was fighting in place of Gongziyu, in a duel. He refused to serve as a stand-in for Gongziyu like Yan Nanfei, leaving those tempting riches and returning to a woman who truly loved him. And Gongziyu also realized that it was not possible to continue, so he gave up fame and fortune and retired with Mrs. Zhuo.

There are actually many contradictions in this story, the plot can be said to be full of loopholes, but the core is very good, most of them are Fu Hongxue's inner struggles, self-torture on some ultimate issues such as life and death, killing or not killing, and finally finding the inner belonging.

It can be said that Gu Long had great ambitions when he wrote this book, but after all, this is a martial arts novel, and the plot should be put in the first place, and Gu Long is a bit of putting the cart before the horse. In fact, Gu Long got up, many of his novels are exploratory, he has always wanted to bring martial arts novels to the direction of pure literature, and at that time, the general literati looked down on writing martial arts novels, and even Jin Yong himself didn't take writing martial arts novels seriously, just entertainment and pastime, Jin Yong's own introduction is a newspaper tycoon, is a product critic.

That's why Gu Long wants to write martial arts novels as pure literature so hard, of course, this is also indispensable to Gu Long's own literary dream, he wrote prose at the beginning, and later wrote martial arts novels because of his livelihood.

After the story was written, Chen Shi asked Li Yalian what to write next? Li Yalian said that she had not thought about it after a while. Chen Shi sat and waited, really bored, Li Yalian walked around in front of him, looking at it was worrying, he couldn't help but ask: "If you haven't figured out how to write, then write the most touching paragraph first, first outline the parts of the book that you think are best written, and then consider it." ”

Li Yalian's eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed: "This method is good, how did you come up with it?"

Chen Shi smiled, so the two sat together and opened "The Moon Knife at the End of the World", Li Yalian had already finished reading the book, Chen Shi had only read a few chapters, so he didn't know much about the plot content of the book, so he handed the pen to Li Yalian.

As soon as she opened the book, the wedge in front was outlined by Li Yalian, and she said: "These paragraphs are too classic, and they are very good as monologues." ”

Chen Shi shook his head, Li Yalian's literary youth is too sick, how many people are willing to listen to the monologues in the movie? In his opinion, martial arts novels should be like superhero blockbusters, enjoyable and terrifying.

However, when he read the wedge, he had a different feeling, these paragraphs are indeed very stylish, there is a kind of poetic beauty, and it seems to be self-questioning and self-answering, in short, it gives people the feeling of mystery. "Is the end of the world far away? not far away, how can people be far away at the end of the world?" This kind of words is indeed very mysterious, a bit of a tricky feeling, but you think it seems to make some sense.

Chen Shi was flipping through the book, Li Yalian sketched from time to time, starting from the first chapter when the protagonists Fu Hongxue and Yan Nanfei met, until they later saw Mingyuexin, Yan Nanfei was seriously injured, and when Fu Hongxue went to challenge Du Lei, Chen Shi didn't speak, but when Li Yalian asked Chen Shi to continue to flip the book, Chen Shi said: "I think this person writes very well, although there are not many scenes, but if it is put in the movie, it is definitely a brilliant trick or supporting role." ”

Chen Shi has not read the following chapters, among the chapters he has read, the most impressive thing is this Du Lei, this is a big trick, written with flesh and blood, and the process of his competition with Fu Hongxue is very wonderful, although Du Lei is a trick, but he feels like a living person, so Chen Shi put forward his own opinions.

Li Yalian asked: "This person's role is too small, and he died just after he appeared, and the length of the movie is too short, I think it's good to delete it directly." ”

Chen Shi was immediately unhappy, and he said with reason: "You're making a martial arts film, right? You want to make a martial arts film like a literary film, right?"

Li Yalian was puzzled: "Yes, what's wrong?"

Chen Shi pointed to the bridge section of the martial arts competition between Du Lei and Fu Hongxue in the book and said: "I think the process of this martial arts competition is the most unique, it is very ancient dragon flavor, and it is best to shoot it in a literary tone, you don't need to fight back and forth, you can solve the problem with one move, you won't be ready to give up even martial arts scenes, right?"

If a martial arts movie doesn't have a martial arts scene, then it can't be called a martial arts movie, this is a big taboo, although Li Yalian is a novice, but she also knows that this is not right, she thought about it and said: "Then how do you think to shoot it? If the martial arts scene is not fought, how should the literary tone be filmed? There is no real list! Like "Swordsman in Shuangqi Town"?"

Chen Shidao: "Of course it can't be like that, that kind of play has nothing to look at, you should be afraid of close-ups, grasp the close-up of important parts, so that it feels very direct, such as killing with a knife, in addition to rendering the previous atmosphere, when you are fighting, focus on the moment when the knife is unsheathed, as well as the moment of the charge, when the two really fight, they have to be brushed aside, giving people the feeling that it is very fast, just like some samurai movies in Japan, but it must have its own characteristics in it." ”

As soon as Chen Shi finished speaking, Li Yalian stared at him, and then praised with bright eyes: "Why didn't I think of it? How did you think of it? You are simply a genius." After speaking, she happily kissed Chen Shi on the face.
