Chapter 099: On the eve of parasitism, fooling Uncle Guang
"Maybe you haven't played it, it's a game on the PS in ancient times, it's called "Parasitic Eve", I let people know about it, the adaptation rights of film and television dramas just expired the year before last, and I spent money to buy it!" Li Xiang teased the little red bean of the young lady and said.
"Don't make a fuss, itchy! I really haven't played this game you said, I started playing the game when I had a computer at home!" Yang Mi recalled carefully, it seemed that she really hadn't played PS.
"I'll find it out for you when I get home, you can take the time to play, familiarize yourself with the plot, I don't have time to write the script for the time being, and I'll write this script when I'm done with "The Hunger Games"!"
This is also the first time that Li Xiang does not rely on the memory of his previous life, and simply relies on his own accumulation over the years to write a script.
"Parasitic Eve" is an action role-playing game series based on the science fiction novel of the same name by RB writer Hideaki Sena, produced and published by RB's Square Enix company, which tells the story of the mitochondria in the human body that begin to awaken and attack humans in turn.
The entire game series is a typical high-to-low start, the first generation of World War I gods, the second generation has mixed reputations, and the third generation is lacking in popularity.
Before the release of the first generation of games, RB had made a movie of the same name of "Parasitic Eve", which was released in 1997, but unfortunately the readership base was relatively weak at that time, and there was no big sales of the game, so not many people knew about it.
Li Xiang is not going to adapt it according to the original novel, but to adapt it based on the plot of the first-generation game, making it closer to a special effects blockbuster, and I have to talk about the first-generation game here.
The sci-fi plot of the first generation of "Parasitic Eve", the beautiful and personalized characters, made players in the PS era exclaim that they are masterpieces, after all, everyone has mitochondria in their bodies, but by no means everyone can think of mitochondrial rebellion.
If you want to talk about the shortcomings of the generation, it is not nothing: the scenes and monsters designed by the American team are slightly too realistic, and in short, the monsters are a little too disgusting.
For players of that era, the zombies in Resident Evil 1 were enough to establish Resident Evil as the king of horror games (even if these zombies weren't all that scary today).
Parasite Eve wasn't originally designed to be a horror game, but the monster setting has made countless players play the game as a horror game.
You can figure it out with your feet, you don't even need to shoot this movie, and when the script is handed to the General Bureau, it will definitely be clicked off with a knife.
So Li Xiang didn't want to make this movie in China at all, but was ready to gain a firm foothold in North America through "The Hunger Games", and then slowly figure it out.
"Would you like to take me with you to the United States?" asked the young lady with bright eyes.
"You haven't made any arrangements in the near future?" Li Xiang asked in surprise, shouldn't it, the current Yang Mi is not the Yang Mi of the previous life, whether it is a movie or a TV series, there are works that can be done.
"My contract expires next year, Rongxingda is in a hurry to renew my contract, and there are no works arranged for me for the time being..." Yang Mi whispered.
"What about your opinion?" Li Xiang looked at her.
"I don't really want to renew my contract, I want to come out and break through!" Yang Mi knew very well what she was doing.
"Okay, I support you! Let's go to the United States for a while, and then come back when the filming of "Hurricane Rescue 3" starts in the summer, whether you want to form your own studio or want to fly, next year Yu's mother will have a Qing palace drama, I am very optimistic! Let's play this TV series again, I won't play it in the future, how about you make a movie?"
"It seems that you have premeditated!" the young lady had such an expression.
"Originally, what is the point of staying in Rongxingda's small workshop, there are no resources, I will pay you, and they will share it, I didn't sign you in advance, I have already done my best to them!" Li Xiang felt that he was quite good to Rongxingda, and Da Mimi had made a lot of money for them in recent years.
If you add the blessing of the two works of the young lady in the next year or so, the profits that Rongxingda gets from Yang Mi will never be under Zhou Gongzi and Changhua.
"What kind of TV series is there for Yu Ma?" the young lady looked curious.
"You just shoot, why do you care so much, I can still hurt you!" The key is that Li Xiang's key point is in his hands, and he is preparing to conquer the city, and his speech is somewhat without his brain.
"You're getting more and more domineering now, but... I like it!" "The clouds and temples are swaying, the hibiscus tent is warm for the spring night, the spring night is bitter and the day is short, and the king will not be early from now on."
Bai Juyi, his old man, don't deceive me!
···
On the afternoon of January 10, in Feixiang Studio, Li Xiang made an appointment with a guest - Yu Rongguang.
promised to take him to North America to play, Li Xiang naturally would not break his promise, and at this moment Uncle Guang was reading the script of "Law-abiding Citizen".
The plot of the movie is that Clyde Shelton, a former sheriff, believes that one of the murderers of his wife and daughter will be released due to shady dealings, so he plans to plot a revenge to punish the murderers and the dealers behind the scenes.
The district court prosecutor in charge of the case is also involved in this revenge plot, and after he realizes the secret revenge plan, he tries to defend the legal system.
In his previous life, the starring role of "Law-abiding Citizen" was Gerard Butler, and Li Xiang changed this role to the Chinese man Wang's homeland, which is the role that Yu Rongguang will play.
In this way, there is a three-way competition with the black prosecutor played by Jamie Fox and the white forces behind the scenes, so that the conflict in the movie will be even stronger.
"It's a little bloody, but it's really exciting!" Uncle Guang sighed after reading the script.
"I estimate that this movie will be rated in R, so Uncle Guang, don't expect this movie to be introduced!" Li Xiang said with a smile.
"Yes, I figured it out!By the way, do you have other things to do with me?" The script can be sent to the mailbox, and Li thinks there is no need to ask him to come to the studio, so there must be other things.
"Are you interested in being the director of "Hurricane Rescue 3"?" Li Xiang took a sip of tea and said to Uncle Guang.
"I—can I?" Uncle Guang's eyes flashed with a hint of longing, but then he smiled bitterly.
"Men can't say that they can't do it, it's all the original team, I've drawn all the sketches for you, if you say that you can't do it, I'll be replaced!" Li Xiang rolled his eyes and continued: "Jason's kid is not slow to make movies, and the filming will be completed in May at the worst, and you will come back to prepare for Hurricane 3 when the time comes, and we will continue to set the Spring Festival!"
"I... I'll try my best!" Uncle Guang agreed a little hesitantly, but the perseverance in his eyes couldn't deceive anyone.
