Chapter 10024: Script
Quadrangle.
After returning from the hotel, Li Yadong locked himself in his room.
He had to analyze and analyze and come up with five scripts.
For some reason, there is always a sense of mission, as if this thing must be done, and it will not work if it is not done.
I don't understand why I feel this way, I think it may be because I got a batch of scripts in Hong Kong back then, which contributed to the Hong Kong film and television industry to some extent.
But then again, if it can really make five anti-Japanese war masterpieces at once, it will be particularly important for the development of entertainment companies in the mainland, and it should be able to establish its position as a leader in the industry at once.
If they were broadcast in the same year, they might have created another glory.
Therefore, it is reasonable to say that this is a harmless and meaningful thing.
Now that you think of it, you have to do it!
Choosing scripts for the five directors, Li Yadong's first strategy is to recall what movies they have made.
What has been proven in history is often more reliable, so that the risk can be minimized.
As for taking out their future works ten or twenty years in advance, will it ruin a good movie?
Li Yadong is not worried about this matter.
It's not a special effects blockbuster, if it's an anti-Japanese war film that infects people with emotions, he personally thinks that it may be more appropriate to shoot it in this era of relatively black and white colors.
Less carving, less whitewashing, less interests, there will be more sincerity, more substitution, and more purity.
Lao Mouzi said that he already had an idea himself, and it happened that he also made such a film later, which was "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".
What Li Yadong has to do is to write the script, but it doesn't need to be too complete, there is a general outline, as for the specific lines and dialogues, write down what you can remember, and let Lao Mouzi and his team figure it out by themselves if you don't remember.
Not to mention anything else, he is definitely younger and more energetic now than when he filmed "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" in his previous life, and at the same time, he ...... It should also be more engaged.
Because he hasn't made a big production yet.
Li Yadong still remembers that the investment in "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" in his previous life seems to be more than 300 million yuan. If he dares to ask for it, Li Yadong will dare to give it.
Of course, the purchasing power of money is different depending on the era, and it is unlikely that it will be used so much.
Even if Lao Mouzi's script is decided, the content is clear to Li Yadong, and it doesn't take much effort. But if you want to say that you want to match all the names of the thirteen sisters, then he definitely doesn't have the ability, so take it again.
Next is Xiao Gangzi.
His words...... Like Lao Mouzi, a prolific household, he has made a lot of movies, Li Yadong has also seen a lot, and the most memorable should be "Tangshan Earthquake".
As for the anti-war films......
Li Yadong sat at the desk and held his cheeks and began to recall.
Yes, I "just" watched one - "The Assembly".
No, there's another one!
Li Yadong's eyes lit up suddenly, and the space in his mind was instantly swallowed up by a wave of darkness......
"Nineteen Forty-Two"!
Unforgettable images began to emerge in the dark space of his mind, making him faintly feel a little sick......
How many years have passed, and the power of this movie is terrifying!
Li Yadong can't describe the shock he was when he first watched this movie.
He still remembered the faces of the people in the movie theater at that time: there was an aunt in the front row who cried to death, and her husband tried to persuade him to no avail; there was a little girl in the back row who snuggled tightly in her father's arms and kept asking him to hug him tighter; the fashionable girl next to her put down the popcorn that was on her lips again, and wanted to throw it away, but after hesitating, she put it back in the paper tube, then wrapped it in a bag and tied it......
This film is a hundred times stronger than the shock brought to him by "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"!
It has to be.
Liu Zhenyun. Li Yadong immediately thought of a person, "1942" was changed from his "Revisiting 1942", this Li Yadong will never be mistaken, because after watching the movie, he was shocked in his heart, and he was a little unclear whether Xiao Gangzi used exaggerated techniques to shoot, and then he went to buy the original work, and the result was ......
I found out that this was an investigative book, so after reading it in one go, I didn't eat well for almost three days, but there was no extra food left, and I distributed it to the staff in the restaurant, and "supervised" them all to eat, and there was not a single grain left.
But the only thing he can't figure out is whether "Revisiting 1942" has been written now.
Got up and paced to the bedside, grabbed the red landline microphone on the bedside table, and pressed down the number.
Soon the call was answered.
"Who?"
"It's me. ”
"Oh, Brother Dong, what's wrong?" Jiang Tengfei's calm voice suddenly disappeared, and was replaced by a tone of hanging.
"Help me look up someone, it's a writer, named Liu Zhenyun, I want to know his contact information, the sooner the better. ”
"Oh, it's okay, Brother Dong, this matter has been contracted to me!" Jiang Tengfei's attitude was a little positive.
Of course, it's not that he shirked when he did things for Li Yadong before, it's just that he wouldn't usually be in this tone, at most he would say "Okay, I know".
As for the reason, it is obvious that two days ago, he forced Brother Dong to do something he didn't want to do, and he was afraid of wearing small shoes, so he hurriedly atonemented for his sins.
Jiang Tengfei's reply was faster than Li Yadong imagined, and when he hadn't sorted out Chen Kaige's problem, he had already come back, and Jiang Tengfei reported a number to him, saying that he had heard about it through the people of the Writers' Association.
I have to say that this guy's network below the top level is still very strong and extensive.
Li Yadong called according to the number, luckily, maybe a person with a profession like a writer, he wouldn't run around if he didn't have anything to do, and found the right owner.
After knocking on the side, I was overjoyed!
"Revisiting 1942" has come out, and as for the film and television copyright, it is still 100% there.
As soon as Liu Zhenyun heard that he was going to buy film and television copyrights, he seemed a little reluctant and asked him which one he was.
"Oh, hello Mr. Liu, I took the liberty to inquire about it, but I forgot to introduce myself, I am ......"
After Li Yadong reported his name, Liu Zhenyun didn't say a word, "Okay Mr. Li, I am willing to sell you the film and television copyright of "Revisiting 1942", in fact, I also want to see it presented on the movie screen, after all, the text is abstract, and the image is more intuitive, I hope more people can understand this painful history." But I have one request. ”
Mr. Liu, but it didn't matter. ”
"I hope it will be shot by a good director. ”
"This is natural, I will definitely consider the shooting issue carefully for such a good book, in fact, I already have a director candidate, Feng Xiaogang, what do you think?"
"He?can!"
"Beijing People in New York", directed by Feng Xiaogang, is now being broadcast on major TV stations, causing thousands of empty alleys, and there are really not many people in China who don't know him.
"That ......"
"I'm in the capital right now, and if you're in a hurry, I can come right over. ”
"That couldn't be better. ”
After ending the phone call with Liu Zhenyun, Li Yadong was in a very good mood, drove away from home directly, first went to Xinhua Bookstore, bought a copy of "Revisiting 1942", and then came to Dongfanghong Hotel.
instructed Xiao Hao to make a private room, because it happened to be the meal, and called Xiao Gangzi over.
After he came alone, he looked left and right, looking a little confused, probably thinking about how to be the only one.
Fortunately, Li Yadong explained, and he understood the reason.
"Li Dong, is this book really as good as you say?" Xiao Gangzi looked a little suspicious after taking the "Revisiting 1942" handed over by Li Yadong.
Because he felt that if it was such an excellent literary work, he should have read it, how could he not even hear it?
"Wang Shuo, you should know each other, right?" Li Yadong asked a seemingly unrelated question.
“…… Know. ”
Wang Shuo praised it. ”
"Oh?"
After listening to Li Yadong's words, Xiao Gangzi really paid attention to the book in his hand, because he knew Wang Shuo's temperament very well, and his vision for literary works was very harsh.
It just so happened that the author himself had not yet arrived, so he took the time to flip through it......
