In mid-July 1987, Dongguan Humen Film and Television Base.

After several years of construction, Humen Film and Television City has gradually formed an antique town. Every street, every building, is restored from ancient books, even the modern electrical infrastructure, is also a series of cover-ups, as far as possible so that users can not see modern things, but still enjoy the convenience of modernization. Attraction staff and vendors, dress up in line with the atmosphere, it can be said that there is no need to specialize, just pull a few passers-by on a street, you can find a qualified set.

In addition, the new venture film and television company and Felix Animation Company have both set up branches in Humen Film and Television City. Around the two cultural giants, a large number of film, television and animation-related studios have been established. Even the world's most advanced computer special effects studio can be found in the Humen Film and Television Base.

Although the entire Humen Film and Television Base relies on filming several TV series and movies every year to obtain some service income, the business of ordinary tourists is not yet on the right track. However, at present, it can bring more than 500 million yuan of GDP to Humen Film and Television Base.

It is foreseeable that the Humen Film and Television Base is not worth the current GDP, but the land that has circled the boss, after the gradual development of these lands, with the future development of the domestic economy, it is conservatively estimated that it is also worth tens of billions.

Lin Qi came to the film and television base, mainly to visit the class and see his investment in the blockbuster "Smiling Proud Jianghu".

This is a huge difference from "Smiling Proud Jianghu" supervised by Tsui Hark in 90 years in history. Not just because there is a difference in the timing of the shooting. What's more, the funds used for this shooting are more abundant, with a budget of up to 200 million yuan. Moreover, the 90-year-old "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was dominated by Hu Jinzhuan at the beginning, and halfway through the filming, because Hu Xu disagreed, Hu Jinzhuan left gloomily, but it had already consumed a lot of money, so even if Tsui Hark's team had an idea, they had to reduce the semi-finished product to continue filming. led to the split in the style of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and it was not until Lin Qingxia's version of Dongfang was undefeated that it was a little new.

Although the plot of Tsui Hark's version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has changed a little, it respects the original work a little more than the "Smiling Proud Jianghu" filmed in 90. At least, the court forces such as Dongchang and Six Doors were not added rigidly, which destroyed the plot of the original work.

This new version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has made minor changes to the original plot. The original work is that Yue Linshan and Lao Denuo disguised themselves to Fuzhou to inquire about the news of the Fuwei Dart Bureau, and after that, they watched the Fuwei Dart Bureau being destroyed by the Qingcheng faction.

This movie version was changed to Ling Huchong, a big disciple of the Huashan faction who said that he was afraid of getting into trouble, and passed by Fuzhou.

During this period, Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, tried to destroy the Lin family's secret book in the Fuwei Dart Bureau.

Lin Miaozhi, the only daughter of the Lin family, in order to cover the escape of her brother Lin Pingzhi, disguised herself as a man, claiming to be Lin Pingzhi, and was arrested by the disciples of the Qingcheng faction.

Ling Hu Chong, who claimed to be afraid of trouble, saw that the road was uneven and saved this "Lin Pingzhi". As a result, he was chased and killed.

After escaping, Lin Miaozhi took revenge, saying that the Lin family's "Sword Spectrum to Waroff Evil Spirits" had been taken away by Linghu Chong.

When Yu Canghai heard the news, he caught up with the Huashan faction and had a fierce fight with the Huashan faction. Although Yue Buqun made a move and drove Yu Canghai away, he doubted that his eldest disciple Ling Hu Chong had any secret tricks for the Lin family.

After Linghu Chong returned to the master's gate, he was questioned by the master about the whereabouts of the "Sword Spectrum to Ward Off Evil Spirits" and denied it on the spot. So, Linghu Chong, who was misunderstood, was forced to think about it and reflect on it. Thinking about the cliff, he unexpectedly encountered the undefeated Dongfang and the wind was clear. Later, he was taught "Dugu Nine Swords" by Feng Qingyang, and became a drinking friend with Dongfang Undefeated.

Next, when he encountered the Songshan faction and the Sword Sect attacking the Huashan faction, Ling Hu Chong was summoned by his junior brother and went down the mountain to help, but he was suspected by the master that he had really learned the "Sword Spectrum to Ward Off Evil Spirits". Subsequently, Dongfang was undefeated and went up the mountain, further deepening the misunderstanding, which made people misunderstand that Linghu Chong not only concealed the "Sword Spectrum to Wars Off Evil Spirits", but also colluded with the Demon Sect, so he was expelled from the division by his master Yue Buqun.

Dongfang was undefeated and injured the people in the division, causing Hu Chong to catch up and question his identity. Although Dongfang Undefeated did not directly say his identity, he told Ling Hu Chong that he would understand when he went to the Black Wood Cliff. This made Ling Hu Chong feel very frustrated, because, in terms of making friends with the Demon Gate by mistake, he may not have been wronged.

At the end of the movie, after Linghu rushed down the mountain, he met Lin Miaozhi, who framed him, and was ready to catch her, take her to the master's gate, and return his innocence. However, Lin Miaozhi designed to let Ling Hu Chong help her save her brother Lin Pingzhi and the Lin family's parents, so she agreed to help him explain and return his innocence. Linghu Chong, who fell into the trap, had no choice but to start tracking down the Qingcheng faction......

The plot of the whole movie is only selected from a part of the original book, all, the rhythm is not so rushed, and it seems relatively compact. Of course, the picture, especially the few fight scenes, is particularly exciting.

And in the movie, the undefeated role of Dongfang chose Lin Qingxia, which has been proven to be a very successful magic role in history. In addition, Lin Miaozhi, who was newly created in the magic change plot, invited Ye Tong, who played Xu Xian in "The Legend of the New White Lady", to play, she can be described as a professional woman dressed as a man. Originally, in the 90 version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", she played the role of "Yue Lingshan", but the role of this little junior sister was not too brilliant, and it was completely covered by the brilliance of Lin Qingxia's sister who appeared later. Therefore, this adaptation is to abandon the little sister route, but to create a new role of Lin Miaozhi. This character dressed as a man is much more interesting than the previous plot.

Of course, in the post-production process, better special effects and music are added to polish it into a more elaborate work.

Lin Qi was halfway through, looked at the half-finished product, and said with a smile: "The movie looks quite level, and it leaves a lot of suspense and space for the sequel! If it is popular, it is estimated that it can be made into a series!"

"Yes, Mr. Lin!" Tsui Hark said with a smile, "Since all the adaptations of Jin Yong's works have been bought out by you, I don't think you need to be in such a hurry, but you can develop movie IP in a long way." The same IP, split into independent units!Lin Ping's line, I am ready to reveal it in the second movie, even the audience who has read the original book will not be able to guess the plot of the movie!"

The plot of the movie not only needs IP bonuses, but it is also afraid that it will be the same as the original book.

The audience needs both familiarity, but at the same time, a movie without suspense will not be bought by many audiences.

Therefore, smashing the original work, smashing the original IP and selling points, and forming a movie with a new plot is the king!

Most of the super IPs that sell well are original crushers!

Lin Qi nodded and said: "Okay! That's it! This "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is just an appetizer, and more than a dozen other Jin Yong works must be developed according to this model!"

Lin Qi spent a lot of money to buy out Jin Yong's copyright, so naturally he can't be as casual as those investors who only bought one-time adaptation rights. Film and television, games, homo, and peripheral productions all have to take into account long-term interests.

For example, film and television adaptations would rather choose more difficult film adaptations, and reduce the number of TV series adaptations as much as possible.

The original work is too long, and I am most afraid of wanting to condense the plot of the original work into one work. In fact, a movie only needs to extract characters and a small part of the plot, and does not need the audience to understand the entire original book through a short movie.

Historically, the adaptation of "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" filmed by Tsui Hark was because the original book was too long, and the script did not have a good amount of information when adapting. As a result, the length of the movie can not clearly express the characters and plot of the original book, and it makes the audience feel that there is too much information and a bit of indigestion. Therefore, "Shushan" is not popular, if the audience who knows the original work of "Shushan" will think that the movie is good. However, people who don't know the original book will feel that the movie is like a mess.

Many of Jin Yong's works, the adapted movies are not as good as the TV series, all because the movie script does not straighten out the plot. As for the TV series, there is no need to consider these issues, according to the length and rhythm of the original book, as long as the shooting is decent, it will be difficult to hit the street.

And to focus on the film market, the original plot must be adapted. Because, the rhythm of the original book is suitable for TV series, and making movies needs to be re-changed. Not only does it allow the audience to see whose things, but also allows the audience to completely predict the direction of the subsequent plot.
