Chapter 151: Take the initiative to come to the door
Now that the decision has been made, Gu Wenwu naturally did not procrastinate any longer, and told Wang Shicong about his decision the next day. Wang Shicong, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, was very excited when he heard it, and after some discussion and evaluation, the two finally decided to shoot "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" first. In the "Condor Trilogy", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is the first part, if it is not filmed first, then the next "Condor Heroes" will make the audience feel that they don't know what to do. Although "Heaven and Dragon Slayer" has little to do with "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the Heavenly Sword and Dragon Slayer Knife throughout the story are derived from "Condor Shooting". If this drama becomes popular, the next two parts can be launched, which is an advantage that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" does not have.
Wanda Entertainment rushed to prepare for the project of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", and after Gu Wenwu signed the contract with Wanda Entertainment, he shook his hand and stayed at home quietly to write the script. By this time the script had been written, it was almost finished. Now he has to think about the actor. Needless to say, the heroine has been confirmed to be played by Tang Wei. After all, there is such a female artist under her own family, and she doesn't praise anyone. But it's hard to say about the male lead. Gu Wenwu's drama has quite high requirements for the actor. Gu Wenwu thought back to the actors in the entire entertainment industry, and found that there were not many actors who could meet his requirements.
But he's not in a hurry, anyway, 04 is almost over, and he doesn't plan to start filming in a hurry this year.
Just when Gu Wenwu was writing the script at home, the news that "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" was about to start filming also came out. While everyone was amazed that another Jin Yong drama was filming, Wenwu Studio officially entered the public's field of vision.
Because Gu Wenwu himself is low-key, there are not many reports about him, let alone his studio. Although "The Great Detective" is very popular, the media reports more about Wanda Entertainment. And now, because of the filming of two Jin Yong martial arts dramas in one go, the Wenwu Studio has become famous all of a sudden. After all, it is to cooperate with large companies such as Huayi and Wanda, which is something that ordinary medium-sized entertainment companies cannot do. Many people only now know that Gu Wenwu has unconsciously developed his studio to a certain scale, not only with strong funds, but also with excellent connections in all aspects.
How much money did this Gu Wenwu make with "The Great Detective"? Many people are secretly guessing about that number.
As soon as the name is known, it will naturally attract the attention of others. On this day, Gu Wenwu was handling affairs in the office when the phone on the desk rang.
"Mr. Gu, there is a person named Ning Hao who said that he is your friend and wants to see you." The reception girl at the front desk said.
"Ning Hao?" Gu Wenwu was slightly surprised in his heart, why did he come.
"Bring him to the reception room, I'll be right there." Gu Wenwu said. Although I don't know why Ning Hao came, no matter what the two say, they can be regarded as acquaintances, even if the two are not very familiar, but when they come to their own territory, wouldn't it be too rude to receive them well.
"Haha, Brother Ning Hao, I haven't seen you for a long time, it's been good lately." Gu Wenwu walked into the reception room with a smile. I haven't seen Ning Hao for a long time, he is no longer the high-spirited spirit when he won the award at the film festival, and now he looks a little thin, Gu Wenwu remembers that he was a little chubby at that time.
"Haha, it's not like that, I'm not like you, Brother Gu, Brother Gu is thriving now." Ning Hao also smiled. It's just that his smile is not so free, on the contrary, with a hint of restraint.
Looking at his appearance, Gu Wenwu probably understood the purpose of his coming here.
"Brother Ning, is he really preparing a new work recently, why haven't you heard any news about you recently?" Gu Wenwu sat opposite Ning Hao, greeting like an old friend.
Seeing that Gu Wenwu's attitude was so good, Ning Hao's heart was relieved, and it seemed that there was a chance to look at it like this.
"That's right, I've been working on new works for a long time, and this book has been in my head for a long time, and I only recently wrote the script." When Ning Hao talked about this, he looked a little excited.
"Oh, then congratulations to Brother Ning, it's not easy to write a book that satisfies you." Gu Wenwu said. He also writes scripts himself, so he naturally knows the difficulty of writing scripts.
"That's right.,My book uses the mode of thinking more about the narrative.,So it took me a lot of brains to write.。 Ning Hao said.
"Multi-line narrative, similar to "Two Big Smoking Guns"?" Gu Wenwu asked.
"That's right, that's it, I didn't expect Brother Gu to have an understanding of this kind of structure, and I was also interested in this narrative structure after watching Guy Ritchie's "Two Big Smoking Guns", so I wanted to try it, because I think this structure is actually quite attractive." Ning Hao said.
"It's true, but this kind of structure is a big challenge for creators, and it's not easy to write well. Gu Wenwu said.
When it comes to the topic of film creation, both of them are a little interested. Gradually, the topic was talked about in depth. From multi-line narrative to narrative style, and then from narrative style to how to render emotion. From lighting to color, and from color to photography. The two chatted and chatted, but they lost some of their time. During this period, except for the staff of the studio who came in to refill the tea twice, no one bothered them, so they talked until lunchtime, until the protesting stomach came to remind them that it was time to sacrifice to the temple.
"Brother Ning, it's not too early, why don't we go have lunch first and talk after eating." Gu Wenwu said.
"Okay." Ning Hao agreed.
Gu Wenwu was reading books in addition to writing scripts during this period of time. In the process of reading books, I have accumulated a lot of knowledge, but there are also many doubts. In the process of communicating with Ning Hao, many questions were answered. Of course, this does not mean that Gu Wenwu is inferior to Ning Hao, but every director has his own strengths, just like Zhang Yimou is very good at color control of movies, so his movies are colorful and impressive. Ning Hao also had a lot of questions answered by Gu Wenwu. There are even some questions that the two of them discussed together to come up with.
Naturally, the more the two talked, the more they talked, and in the end, there was a faint feeling of introducing each other as confidants.
"Come on, come on, the food here is still good, I often come here to eat, and I can order whatever I want." Gu Wenwu handed the menu to Ning Hao.
"Oh, I'm going to try it." Ning Hao was not polite, took the menu and ordered. After the waiter on the side wrote it down, he left, leaving only Gu Wenwu and Ning Hao in the box.
"By the way, Brother Ning, you don't have the name of your book, we don't seem to have any domestic movies in Daxia that are similar to multi-line narratives, and this is the first one of yours." Gu Wenwu said.
"This is the first one, I don't know if it's good or bad, my book is called "Crazy Stone", which tells a story caused by a priceless jadeite." Ning Hao said.
