Outcome......

Wang Meng was just about to say his plan, when Ning Hao and others came over.

Zhang Lantian, Ning Hao, Zheng Kai, Tang Yan, Bai Baihe and others came over.

Seeing that their boss was talking to Chen Kexin, Tsui Hark and others, these people were very proud. I thought: Look, it's still the boss Niu Cha, just now Manager Zhang just took us to meet a few colleagues and reporters, and now his own boss is talking to Chen Kexin and Tsui Ke.

Wang Meng introduced it to a few people, except for Ning Hao and Chen Kexin, the others, Tsui Hark, and others also knew Zhang Lantian.

After all, the number one general under Wang Meng, several people have heard of it.

"Where are we?" Wang Meng hurriedly pulled back the plan just now.

"Director Wang, you said that next year's work will be a magic masterpiece. Shi Nansheng said.

"Yes, my plan for next year is a magic movie, and I have thought of the theme, which is based on a small story in my country's famous novel "Liao Zhai", called "Painted Skin". ”

"Painted Skin?" Tsui Hark wondered.

As a Hong Kong director, I am naturally familiar with "Liao Zhai", especially the famous painting skin in "Liao Zhai", which is familiar to many people.

"Director Wang, what do you think?" Tsui Hark was a little unsure.

And Wang Meng knows what is the question that Tsui Hark is asking like this? It's nothing more than that there is anything to change in the painting skin, which is familiar to everyone, what new tricks can there be?

Wang Meng knew Xu Hark's thoughts, but he smiled and asked rhetorically: "Director Xu, you just said that your future plan is also of the costume type?"

"yes, that's what I thought. Tsui Hark didn't understand why Wang Meng asked that.

"That's it, think about it, if I were a simple old story of "Painted Skin", what would I have to tell you. My idea was...... "Wang Meng, thinking about how to explain it to everyone." But after thinking about it for a while, I felt that everyone absolutely understood this, and said, "Or, can you understand "The Lord of the Rings"?"

As soon as Wang Meng said this, the sky was thundering.

How could you not know the power of "The Lord of the Rings"! It's a magical masterpiece!

Thinking of this, everyone understands.

It turns out that Wang Meng's "Painted Skin" is not a simple story of painted skin, or as simple as "Strange Tales from Liaozhai", but has been transformed into a magical masterpiece like "The Lord of the Rings".

"Director Wang, are you saying that a lot of special effects and magical themes will be used?

Wang Meng snapped his fingers, nodded and said, "Yes, it's such an adaptation, my initial investment has reached nearly 100 million, what do you say?"

Well, in this way, as long as you are not a fool, you can understand, the relationship is really a blockbuster. It seems that my vision has been reduced just now.

And a few people in DreamWorks, especially a few actors, have their eyes shining, thinking that they are participating in such a big production, so ......

"Don't think about it, you can't afford such a big production, it's better to be down-to-earth. Wang Meng looked at Tang Yan and Zheng Kai looking at him tightly, and poured cold water on several people.

When a few people heard this, they were a little disheartened, but Wang Meng said: "But it's okay to be a supporting role, keep working hard." ”

Everyone was happy with this, and it seemed that there was hope.

And Tsui Hark thought for a while, understood, and said, "I know, Director Wang understands." Do you mean that my main direction of attack is also moving closer to this aspect, isn't it? Through the theme of ancient costumes, which everyone can accept, it extends to the theme of magic and mythology?"

Tsui Hark is Tsui Hark, Wang Meng knocked on the side, he understood. It turned out that Wang Meng turned around in a circle to remind him that he didn't need so many ideas, just grasp a key point.

It doesn't need to be done step by step, just like my "Painted Skin", a subversive adaptation, into a big production of myth and magic plus ancient costumes.

Therefore, at this moment, Tsui Hark admires Wang Meng a little, because Wang Meng gave him a direction with his actions.

Although he is nearly forty years older than Wang Meng, it does not hinder the exchange between his peers.

"Then Director Wang has any guidance for my plan?" asked Tsui Hark modestly.

"Hehe, don't dare, don't dare, I want to cooperate with Director Xu. Wang Meng finally showed the fox's tail now.

"Director Wang, please say. Tsui Hark seemed to take it seriously.

And everyone around is also very cautious, looking at the collision between Tsui Hark, a geek, and Wang Meng, a prodigy.

"Director Xu, you also said just now, the theme of ancient costumes is still the story of our Chinese nation, the peak era, right?"

In fact, this point is purely Wang Meng's blind question, Tsui Hark's plan is like this, he is just a trick. It's nothing more than a plan for the next step.

"Yes, that's what I think, the theme of ancient costumes at the peak of our Chinese nation. "Tsui Hark.

Wang Meng: "Which dynasty represents the peak of our Chinese nation?"

"Han, Tang. "Tsui Hark.

"Specifically, or what do you most aspire to?"

"Don. ”

"That's it, since your first thought is the Tang Dynasty, then find a story about the Tang Dynasty?" Wang Meng asked.

Xu Hark was stunned for a moment, but asked: "The Tang Dynasty can be sure, and it's not bad." But just like Director Wang just said, how did the Tang Dynasty adapt it into a bit of a magical theme? Just like your "Painted Skin", painted skin can be magical, but how can I be magical in history?"

This is Tsui Hark's biggest question, and it is also the place he has always been unable to figure out. His plan is not a simple costume production, just like the current domestic directors, it is just a simple costume drama, which Tsui Hark disdains.

"I know, do you mean that history can't be changed at will, and it can't change a magical story like "The Lord of the Rings", and even "Painted Skin" can't be compared, right?" Wang Meng.

"Indeed, that's the crucial point that I didn't decide. "Tsui Hark.

"Hehe......" Wang Meng smiled.

"Director Xu, you're thinking too generally. Yes, the Tang Dynasty is very great, many stories. But not much of what you ask for. But have you ever thought about whether it would be feasible for us to mythologize a historical figure specifically?"

Wang Meng induced step by step, and only said a word.

Tsui Hark, who suddenly came to his senses, understands that I can't adapt history, I adapt it randomly, just wait to be scolded by fans.

But it's perfectly feasible for me to adapt a historical figure and mythologize him!?

"Director Wang, what kind of character are you talking about?" Tsui Hark admired Wang Meng more and more, and Wang Meng's few words straightened out most of his thoughts, what a genius.

When Wang Meng heard this, he knew that the time had come.

"Director Xu, turn a historical figure into a myth, what kind of historical figure do you think is the best to adapt and be accepted by everyone?" Wang Meng asked.

After hearing this, everyone's minds were running quickly, but Wang Meng said: "Detective, adventure...... These are the main directions, you look at the foreign Sherlock Holmes, Leonardo da Vinci-The Code, or Detective Conan. This kind of detective mystery is the point!?"

After Wang Meng finished speaking, there was silence at the scene......

"Haha...... I see. ”

"Director Wang, it's really amazing. ”

As soon as Wang Meng said this, everyone present admired it.

It's not what Wang Meng said, detective, exploration is the real thing.

"I think Di Renjie of the Tang Dynasty is definitely a good subject!" Wang Meng said conclusively.

And after Wang Meng said it, everything fell into place, and there was no need to explain.

Wang Meng also teased a few names - Tongtian Empire, Shendu Dragon King, Feast of Death, Kunlun Golden Peak, Lover's Vine, Ghost Valley, Five Ghosts Knocking Door, Nine-Tailed Fox, Garuda, etc., which sounded like a great name.

"It seems that Director Wang has already done research!" Tsui Hark said this, and he was convinced.

"Hehe, I have a little research, I like this kind of theme very much, and I want to make it into our domestic "Raiders of the Lost Ark" or even "007" series. I even thought of turning "Xu Xiake's Travels" into an adventure film series. ”

"Oh, there is also the "Xu Xiake" series, Director Wang, can you tell me?" Tsui Hark was pleasantly surprised again, thinking to himself - it seems that this Wang Meng does have research, "Di Renjie" Magic Detective Series, "Xu Xiake" Magic Adventure Series, it seems that Wang Meng has goods in his stomach.

"I am dissatisfied with everyone who said that I have thought about the "Di Renjie" series for a long time, and I just thought about the "Xu Xiake" series, and the details are not yet deep, so I can only say that I have plans for the future. Wang Meng did think of the "Xu Xiake" series, but he only thought of it himself, and there was no ready-made theme like "Di Renjie" for him to brag about.

"Actually, Director Xu, I think, if you really have an idea, how about we cooperate? You have time to go to DreamWorks, let's study the "Di Renjie" series in detail, what do you think?" Wang Meng threw out his thoughts.

"Therefore, I dare not invite you if you wish. Tsui Hark gave an affirmative.

Wang Meng secretly shouted in his heart: "It's done." The "Di Renjie" series belongs to DreamWorks.

"Director Wang, do you have any other ideas about the "Xu Xiake" series you said?" However, Chen Kexin on the side asked.

Wang Meng was stunned when he asked?

"Dissatisfied Director Wang said, I am envious of the cooperation between you and Lao Xu, I am very interested in the "Xu Xiake" adventure series you said?" Chen Kexin said.

Wang Meng heard the sound outside the strings, and it seemed that Chen Kexin had taken a fancy to this theme. Chen Kexin said last time that he liked science fiction, which subverted Wang Meng's perception of him, and now he said that he likes such an adventure, which is subverted again.

It seems that as a director, he doesn't want to be positioned, and hopes to make different series to prove himself.

Chen Kexin's literature and art have reached their peak, and now he is unwilling to try a costume masterpiece like "Casting a Name", but he is still far from his own positioning!

Now I want to try the adventure too. It's also a kind of director's stubbornness.

Wang Meng is naturally willing, his plan has long been full, and he is naturally happy to have such a big director serving his company.

Hurriedly said: "If Director Chen doesn't dislike it, you can also go to our company when you have time, and we can discuss it systematically?"

"This one has to go, it has to go. Hehe...... "Chen Kexin was happy.

"Congratulations to the three directors, it seems that I will learn more from them in the future. Ning Hao on the side was very greedy, really greedy.

Wang Meng said that these series, when I think about it, my blood is boiling, if this is successfully produced, then DreamWorks will be invincible in China, Ning Hao He can't participate, you say it's a pity.

"Director Ning, don't worry, there are opportunities in the future. I'm here, guarding the two big directors and telling you, only when you don't want to make a film, you will never be idle, as long as you want. Wang Meng said to Ning Hao.

Ning Hao is what he values the most, and he has cultivated it, and there is still a difference between his own family and outsiders.

Now it's not too much of a plan to find Tsui Hark to work with the two, there are not enough directors at home, or they are inexperienced, so that's why it's like this.

If you can be satisfied, you won't find outsiders like this.

Ning Hao's eyes were also red just now, Wang Meng was embarrassed to say this, so he had to laugh awkwardly.

Then the group discussed it and determined that they had time to go to DreamWorks to find Wang Meng.

After the dinner of the Golden Horse Awards, Wang Meng and his party returned to the magic capital the next day.

Now Wang Meng is mainly engaged in the post-production and publicity of "You at the Same Table".
