Chapter 436: The Prototype of the Script

In fact, Li Mu already had a rough outline in his heart, so he almost added some branches.

As the three parties of the war, the dragon, phoenix, and unicorn must be divided into two factions, of which there is no doubt that the dragon clan is one faction, and the phoenix and unicorn work together to fight against the dragon clan.

The two sides are decided, and the next thing is the main line.

As a standard commercial blockbuster, this fully computer-produced 3D movie must focus on special effects, the plot is mainly easy to understand, and it doesn't matter if it's flat and straightforward, but the story must be told clearly.

Cause, development, process, end.

A matter must go through these four stages, and the reason is, of course, why the three clans started a big war, which is the round head of the contradiction.

Since ancient times, wars have been for the sake of interests, and the interests are nothing more than territory and population, and the three races are different races, so naturally it is impossible to compete for population.

Then the rest is to grab the territory, the central land of Qilin Town, the Sifang Sea of Dragon Town, the immortal volcano of Phoenix Town, it seems that there is no conflict between the three clans.

However, the phoenix does not fall without a sycamore, let alone on the ground and in the sea, and the unicorn will not leave the earth.

Only dragons can go up to the sky and enter the underground sea, and the contradiction between the three parties is obvious.

Moreover, dragons are innate and can mate with many species, and there are many hybrid dragons on the earth, all of which are interbred with other animals.

Living together between two creatures of different races will inevitably lead to conflicts, and the dragon clan will inevitably cause friction when they invade the living space of the unicorn and the phoenix.

Well, you need a scene at the beginning to point out the contradictions, and at the same time, it's better to find a more famous actor to make a cameo.

There are contradictions, and then there are small-scale conflicts, and then they slowly escalate.

However, the story must have ups and downs, and you can't start the big war directly, otherwise the climax will come before the movie is halfway, and it will be difficult to maintain the climax for an hour later.

For the time being, when the conflict reaches a certain scale, some of the high-level leaders of the three clans will also participate in the war, and all three will be defeated, and then Zu Long, Yuan Feng, and Zu Qilin will come forward to settle the dispute.

Yuan Feng and Zu Qilin didn't want to fight, but Zu Long was ambitious, the Dragon Clan was the strongest, and of course he didn't want to be partial to the four seas, so he invited them to come to the Dragon Palace to discuss quelling the war, and laid an ambush to seriously injure Yuan Feng and Zu Qilin.

This is the first big climax halfway through the movie, with the two giants fighting against the ancestral dragon and the dragon palace.

It's easy to arrange later, now that you've torn your face, it's time to officially start the war.

Spend more than ten minutes of footage to give a small scale in various places, the sky, the seabed, the land, and the mountains, and here you need two or three weighty supporting roles.

In the end, I left about half an hour for the final battle, no way, there are too many mythical beasts that appear, it is estimated that a few more battlefields will be designed, and the editing in the later stage is estimated to be more cumbersome.

The big frame is done, and all that's left is to add branches, which can't be separated from the main line, and shouldn't spend too many shots, and the main line must be highlighted.

Then there are the actors of each role, Zu Long must be tall, powerful and domineering, and this role is well-deserved.

is more than 1.8 meters tall, with broad shoulders and a strong body and a national face, no one is more suitable for this role than him.

Yuan Feng and Shi Huang let Lu Yi and Chen Qiaoen play them, both in terms of image and age.

The other protagonist, Zu Qilin, has no suitable candidate for the time being, and Qilin has always represented auspiciousness in the history of our country, and it is necessary to find a charitable actor, the best age is about forty years old.

But as the head of a clan, Zu Qilin must also be majestic, otherwise he will not be able to control the land tribes.

The face of charity has majesty, and it is easy to do only one item, and a large number of requirements are met, and it is more difficult to find the two characteristics together.

However, Li Mu had sent invitations to Chen Baoguo, Li Xuejian, Li Baotian, Li Youbing, and Chen Daoming before, although he didn't say the specific situation, but he wouldn't refuse them all.

In addition to these four characters, the other main supporting dragon clans account for two or three, a certain dragon son of the Candle Dragon and the Ancestral Dragon.

This dragon son also had to receive a boxed lunch early, so that the ancestral dragon's ambition and the revenge of killing the son together would provoke a war.

The Feng clan has to occupy a main supporting role, and there is also one of the four divine beasts, Vermilion Bird.

The Qilin clan also needs one in addition to the White Tiger, so that the strength of both sides is about the same.

As for the other mythical beasts, they don't appear alone, and the length of the film must be controlled, preferably within two hours, it's not good if it's too long.

......

Just when Li Mu was completing the script while sending out the information, Zhang Xiuqi was late.

"I'm really sorry to keep Mr. Li waiting!"

Seeing Li Mu leaning on the sofa staring at his phone in a daze, Zhang Xiuqi thought that he was about to fall asleep, and apologized again and again.

Li Mu, who was thinking about the plot, didn't care when he was interrupted, stood up and said, "It's okay, Director Zhang is also a busy person, are all the guests gone?"

"It's all gone, Mr. Li, please take a seat!" Zhang Xiuqi didn't go to his chair, just sat down next to him.

"It's not too early, I'm really sorry to keep Mr. Li down at night!" Zhang Xiuqi looked at the time and said apologetically, "I'll make a long story short!"

Li Mu said, "Director Zhang, please speak." ”

Zhang Xiuqi first asked rhetorically, "Does Mr. Li think there is any difference between this Feitian Award and last time?"

"There are more reporters!" Li Mu thought about the hundreds of reporters at the door and the TV station's interview car, "The shortlist has also been relaxed a lot. ”

Zhang Xiuqi said with a smile, "This is what I discussed with the leader for a long time before I approved it, and the Feitian Award was not only changed to one session a year, but also youth idol dramas, romance dramas, and costume idol dramas can also be shortlisted, and at the same time, it will be broadcast live on several satellite TV and video websites." ”

Li Mu nodded, it was true.

However, Zhang Xiuqi smiled bitterly again, "But the final list of winners is still the same as before, and the leader will not let go!"

It can be seen that Zhang Xiuqi is also very helpless at this time, since he took advantage of Li Mu's incident last time to clean up the organizing committee and was ready to carry out drastic reforms, but he didn't expect that the biggest pressure came from the leaders above, and he couldn't do anything without the leaders to speak.

Li Mu has no choice about this issue, what is the purpose of being an official? Of course, it is a political achievement.

Will the Reform Flying Prize bring them political achievements?

The Feitian Award is originally the highest TV award in China, unless you make it the Oscar of the TV industry, otherwise they are not allowed to take risks to reform, and no one wants to resist if they fail.

Thinking of this, Li Mu almost knew why he wanted to keep himself.

What does it take for an award to be recognized?

Its authority, of course!

He wanted to ask Li Mu to shoot a few more TV series, so that the chance of failure would be relatively small, after all, the TV series produced by Li Mu have always had a good reputation and are very popular with the audience.

However, Li Mu is now busy with the movie, the script is almost formed, and the next thing is to find actors, and when the script is finalized, he will go to all over the world to shoot, where will he have time to shoot a TV series.

However, Chen Tianqiao came to find himself a few days ago, and he couldn't eat the hundreds of film and television drama projects in his hands and wanted to find someone to share them, so he just swallowed them with Li Mu, Bernard, Guangxian, and Tengxun, and it is estimated that a large number of adapted TV series will come out in the next few years.
