The last time Lin Zixuan wrote a fairy tale was six years ago, when he was still working in the children's column group of Beijing Radio Station, and his daily job was to tell stories to children in front of the radio. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He sometimes receives letters from children who want to hear new fairy tales.

But fairy tales are not what he can tell if he wants to.

This is not to tell stories to children at home, any subject matter is fine, but for the children in the capital, you can't tell nonsense, if you tell a story about fairies and ghosts, maybe it will be said to be promoting feudal superstition.

All manuscripts must be reviewed and must have appeared in magazines or fairy tale books.

Even if you write a new story, you have to hand it over to the leader for review, and the leader often dismisses it because of the trouble.

There are ready-made fairy tales that don't tell, why do you get these things, and who will be responsible if something goes wrong.

In this case, Lin Zixuan wrote several fairy tales and submitted them to the children's literature magazine in Shanghai, among which "Hulu Brothers" had the greatest impact.

The story was made into an animated film and continuously broadcast on TV stations across the country, and was very popular with children.

It can be said that this cartoon turned the Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio over, and the more times it was replayed, the greater their profits.

The Fine Arts Film Studio later made a sequel to "Hulu Brothers", which was also very profitable.

But this has nothing to do with Lin Zixuan, he only got a few hundred yuan of adaptation fees from it.

This is the situation of domestic writers, such as the novel "Alive", Zhang Yimou used 30,000 yuan to get the adaptation rights of the novel, and how much money he made after making a movie has nothing to do with the original author.

Writers are at the bottom of literary and artistic creation.

The writer submits his manuscript to the magazine, and the magazine pays the manuscript fee, which is clear, and there is no mention of selling a magazine to the writer's commission.

A writer's most substantial income is royalties, which are paid based on the number of books sold.

As for other art forms adapted into film and television dramas, animations, dramas, etc., the adaptation fee is generally paid in a lump sum, and the writer will not be allowed to participate in the later profit sharing.

Unless the writer's influence can influence the box office of the film, he is qualified to negotiate with the producer.

This hasn't happened in the domestic film and television industry yet, but in the West, top best-selling authors sign box office sharing deals with Hollywood studios.

Lin Zixuan did not regret selling the animation adaptation rights of "Hulu Brothers" for a few hundred yuan.

One is the situation in the domestic film and television industry, and he wrote "Hulu Brothers" more so that children can have new fairy tales and have good memories of childhood.

That's what he intended.

Looking back now, Lin Zixuan feels very good.

If he hadn't written "Hulu Brothers", he wouldn't have designed the image of the Hulu Brothers at the request of the Art Film Studio, and Ge You wouldn't have introduced Feng Xiaogang to him, which might have been a different story.

Six years have passed, and Lin Zixuan has long since left the position of broadcasting host and has a new life.

He wrote this "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure" this time, mainly to give his daughter a story that can accompany her to grow up, and also to let domestic children have new fairy tales to read.

In addition to this, he also had an idea to spread the culture through this story.

If it's just for books to sell well, make money from movies, or build theme parks or something, he doesn't need to go to great lengths to adapt, just write the original Harry Potter books.

In that case, not only will it save time and effort, but it will also have a much better chance of success.

In these years, it was the fairy tales of the West that came to the East, not the fairy tales of the East that came to the West.

There are many reasons for this, and Lin Zixuan wants to make a try.

With the help of the original storyline, he added oriental elements, integrated Chinese and Western cultural elements, and let Western children accept fairy tales with oriental elements through this book "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure".

This is a magical world familiar to Western children.

After reading it, they may be interested in the occult spells of the East, and then interested in the culture of the East.

It's all about communicating with each other.

Of course, things have to come step by step, he writes the story first, sees the reader's reaction, and then decides what to do next.

Lin Zixuan plans to send the story to a children's literature magazine and publish it in the magazine.

It's a bit embarrassing to say, although "Hulu Brothers" is popular and broadcast on TV stations across the country, few people know that Lin Zixuan is the original author, and children won't remember these when they watch cartoons.

Moreover, Lin Zixuan's writing of fairy tales is in the nature of playing tickets, and he has not written it in the future, so it is normal that he will not be paid attention to.

His most influential novel should be "Alive", but unfortunately the film was banned in China, no publishing house dared to publish it, and there are many people who know it in the literary circle, but ordinary readers are not very clear.

This has caused Lin Zixuan to be in a polarized situation among readers.

Readers who know him like it very much, and those who don't know him don't know who Lin Zixuan is.

As a writer, he was not well-known among readers, but with the publication of the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" series of martial arts novels, he gradually became popular as a writer of martial arts novels.

He sent "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure" to the "Literary Youth" magazine in Shanghai.

After receiving the manuscript, the magazine immediately arranged for the senior editor to read the manuscript, and even the editor-in-chief was shocked.

Lin Zixuan's fame in the literary circle has changed from what it used to be, six years ago, he was an unknown newcomer author, and now he can have a place in the literary circle with just a novel "Alive".

"Alive" has been well received overseas, and in addition to France and the Netherlands, Italy and Japan are also preparing to publish one after another.

After reading the story, the editors of the magazine "Literary Youth" realized that this was not an ordinary fairy tale, this story has an extremely detailed background setting, and presents a magical world in front of the reader.

This is not quite the same as domestic fairy tales, which are often very simple in terms of setting.

For example, "Hulu Brothers" is the struggle between the gourd baby and the goblin, which is simple and clear, and children can understand it.

But in "Xiaoxue's Great Adventure", there is not only a huge background setting, but also many characters, each with their own story, which has laid a lot of foreshadowing.

This is clearly just the beginning of a series of stories.

With so much ink spent on the background introduction, you can imagine how twisty and bizarre the story will be.

On the one hand, the editors are happy that such a thick fairy tale has appeared in the country, and on the other hand, they feel regretful, it would be nice if the background of this story was set in China.

For example, the warlock world on Kunlun Mountain should be very interesting. (To be continued.) )
