This is indeed a very complete and very powerful story......

But can such a story-changing movie really be a big hit?

This is where Lu Cheng and others are confused and even questioned.

"Akan ......" Lu Cheng hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to say bluntly: "It is undeniable that this is a moving and thought-provoking story.

But I'm not too optimistic about the film's prospects...... There are three reasons for this. ”

Yi Shuihan nodded and motioned for him to continue.

"The first point is that this is a story about Peking Opera, which has now declined, and not many people have heard or understood it, and the audience is limited.

The second point is that this is a very heavy and depressing story, and the possibility of this kind of movie being a big hit is not to say that it is not possible, but it is extremely low.

The third point is that this is a story about same~sexual~-love, and secular prejudices will cause a lot of controversy in this movie. Lu Cheng said eloquently.

Everyone in the audience also nodded, quite agreeing with his judgment.

"Do you have a different opinion?" Yi Shuihan smiled and asked.

"Yes!" An answer was particularly loud, and everyone saw that it was Fan Xiaobei, a loyal supporter of Yi Shuihan.

"Tell me about it?" Yi Shuihan asked with interest.

"Because this movie is Brother Han's movie, it will definitely sell well!" Fan Xiaobei said firmly.

Everyone chuckled, it was really brainless fans!

"No kidding. Yi Shuihan raised his hand and said with a smile: "Lao Lu's words should represent the voices of the vast majority of you! ”

Everyone quieted down and listened to Yi Shuihan's opinion.

Compared with them, it is obvious that Yi Shuihan can better understand the market dynamics and context.

Understanding his thoughts and ideas is an important reference for them to create works that meet the market.

"First of all, this is a story about Peking Opera...... But the essence is a story, not a Peking opera.

When you listen to this story, do you think you can't understand this story, do you feel estranged and unfamiliar because it is Peking Opera?" Yi Shuihan said with a smile.

Seeing that everyone was thoughtful, Yi Shuihan waited for a moment before continuing: "The second point, at the current market box office, tragic movies can't compare to comedy movies and action movies, which is a normal thing, but if it can really move people's hearts, tragic movies are more powerful and can hit people's hearts more than all other film genres!"

And what we're going to do is just such a movie!"

"The third point may bring a lot of controversy, but I think "Farewell My Concubine" is not a same~sexual~ love movie, and Cheng Dieyi is not same~sexual~love, but a gender cognitive disorder...... It's just a product of that background, that era, that environment.

Moreover...... Sometimes it's a bad thing, and sometimes it's a bad thing!"

Yi Shuihan's words were convincing, and everyone in the audience agreed with his explanation.

In other words, Yi Shuihan has decided that no matter who he is, there is no way to change it.

And what they have to be convinced is that his decision has not been missed so far.

Since Yi Shuihan had decided so, they only needed to complete their work according to his arrangement.

"Han Da, are you going to star in this movie?" Fan Xiaobei asked curiously.

"Naturally, I want to star in such a wonderful movie!" Yi Shuihan's answer was undoubted.

"Then you must be playing the role of Overlord!" someone continued.

"Why can't it be Yu Ji?" Yi Shuihan asked with a smile.

Everyone's eyes widened, looking at Yi Shuihan, Cheng Dieyi in the movie...... It can be said that it is a feminine character, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is even a heroine.

Yi Shuihan wants to challenge such a difficult role?

But it's normal to think about it, Yi Shuihan's role was a simple character that time.

Everyone looked at Yi Shuihan in shock, and then they were a little worried about him.

Playing this role, will it have some impact on him?

"No, the audience is not a child, and the drama and reality are still clearly distinguished. Yi Shuihan smiled and waved his hand, and this topic came to an end.

After the unity of thought, everyone began to devote themselves to work.

On the main line provided by Yi Shuihan, everyone discussed, extended, and filled......

However, he soon encountered difficulties, not only the background of the times, but also the unfamiliarity with the Peking Opera industry.

Yi Shuihan can still imagine this kind of picture because he has read the original work, but for everyone in the screenwriting department, it is difficult to understand such a scene, let alone describe it.

They also tried to find relevant film and television materials, but even the images of the performances on stage remained, let alone the documentaries of the troupes.

As a result, the writing of the script also got into trouble.

"Akan...... It's not a thing to write like this!" Lu Cheng found Yi Shuihan and expressed his opinion, "In this case, even if you reluctantly write it, it will be distorted and unreal, how do you think this matter should be solved?"

"That's ......" Yi Shuihan pondered for a moment and said, "Originally, I wanted to arrange it later, but now that this is the case, let's start arranging it in advance." ”

"What do you mean?" Lu Cheng asked suspiciously.

"If you have an understanding of this kind of scene and environment, where can anyone compare to those few remaining Peking Opera masters?" Yi Shuihan said with a smile.

He originally thought that he would wait for the script to be completed and then go to those Peking Opera masters to ask them about the singing methods and body of Peking Opera, but now it seems that he has to be invited in advance.

"Can they come?" Lu Cheng was a little puzzled, even if it has declined, those Peking Opera masters can be called old artists, and they will participate in the creation of a movie?

Yi Shuihan said with a smile: "So you want to bring our script and sincerity! Do you say that those Peking Opera people will refuse a film that promotes Peking Opera?"

Now you try to improve our script, leave the Peking Opera part blank, and other details must be filled in and considered, and I will personally ask them to ...... when the time comes."

"Good...... Then I'm relieved. Lu Cheng laughed and went back to announce the good news to everyone in the screenwriting department, they had a headache for a long time.

The headache was solved, and everyone's enthusiasm was really much higher, and they carefully considered every detail and every line until they selected the most suitable words and sentences.

It can be said that the people in the screenwriting department have been at the forefront of the entire industry in terms of ability, but even so, Yi Shuihan still repeatedly sent back revisions.

After dozens of revisions, everyone was almost overwhelmed, and Yi Shuihan finally approved the draft.

The first draft of this script can be regarded as complete, and Yi Shuihan also went north with this first draft and sincerity.
