30. Chapter 30: A Sensational Newcomer

Kevin felt strange in his heart, and it was rare for so many works to pass the preliminary review of the association at the same time. [No pop-up novel network]

With this curiosity, Kevin opened one of the adaptations of Game of Thrones, and frowned at the synopsis of the script.

Good guys~~ Isn't this story one of the world's three major fantasy books, and the fantasy George Martin's "A Song of Ice and Fire", which is as famous as "The Lord of the Rings"?

There is a newcomer adapting such a huge story, I am really not afraid of death......

Due to the large number of characters, complex story lines, and the scale of the scenes, this kind of magical poetry is usually considered the most difficult to adapt into a screenplay.

For example, although "A Song of Ice and Fire" is well-known and has been tried by many top screenwriters in the industry, no one has succeeded so far......

Kevin flipped through a few pages casually with disappointment, and was quickly stunned......

How~? This is no ordinary script...... And it's all storyboard~!?

Kevin couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

The so-called storyboard script is actually a script that turns the original story script into a script drawn with simple shots, and at the same time matches the lines, which is similar to a comic book, which is convenient for the crew to shoot.

Storyboard scripts are usually produced only by directors who are familiar with each aspect of the shooting, and their difficulty is far greater than that of ordinary story scripts.

A layman actually made a storyboard directly?

The more Kevin looked, the more surprised he became, first of all he was surprised by the low level of painting of this guy with an ID of "NB......

This guy's sketches of landscapes are simply at the level of elementary school students, and some of the drawings are simply a mess, even his son's graffiti is much better than this......

But looking at it again, Kevin was completely shocked by the subtlety of the sense of camera and rhythm in the picture, every character, every shot, is arranged to the advantage, just looking at these sketches can imagine the images of these characters in his mind......

Kevin unconsciously had a strange feeling, and all these signs indicated that this guy seemed to have not read the original book at all, but as if he had written a story on the screen......

But "A Song of Ice and Fire" has never been able to be put on the screen, ......?

What makes Kevin even more terrifying is that this script completely breaks the original story structure of "A Song of Ice and Fire", re-dismantling the characters and time trajectories with extremely superb techniques, and re-modifying the characters' lines, while retaining the essence of the original book, it also cleverly turns the story into a work that can be put on the screen......

With a "snap", the coffee cup in Kevin's hand, who was concentrated, fell to the ground, and the female secretary outside the door heard the movement and hurriedly walked in and asked nervously, "What happened?" ”

"It's okay! It's me who was careless, Catherine, you go out first, I want to work~" Kevin's face was flushed with excitement and waved his hand.

His heart was beating rapidly, and his whole body was trembling with excitement~ like a gambler finally getting a good hand.

My God~! It's a good script!! It's definitely a great script, and although I've only read a little bit, it's definitely a C-grade ...... No, no...... It should be B+!!

And such a script has a maximum price tag of $50!?

Kevin's whole person was uncontrollable with excitement, he was about to develop, he was going to win this script! The other party is just an idiot novice...... If you offer a price that he can't refuse, he should be able to win the script~

No! You can't drive too high, and you can't let this guy named NB understand the true value of this script......

Kevin nervously nodded down the price with a shudder...... $500......

At Warners, a third-level production manager like Kevin only has $70,000 a year, and he now only has 40,000 credits left...... If he is discovered by a competitor, then he will be out of play~

And then, Kevin waited anxiously for the other party's reply all day, so he began to read the other scripts of the screenwriter with the ID of NB.

Looking at it like this, the shocks came one after another......

It's unbelievable! This guy named NB, every script, almost gives his "Game of Thrones" the same feeling, the same storyboard, the same amazing ...... The same level of B+ or above......

Oh, my God~! This guy is simply an unborn genius~!! Kevin couldn't help but exclaim in his heart~!

For the whole day, Kevin was in a state of extreme excitement, and he greedily put the standard of $500 per script for NB, hoping to take these treasures in one go!

But Kevin's excitement forgot one thing, when he greedily raised the value of these scripts tenfold and wanted to swallow them alone, Gu Xiaofan's screenwriter value ranking also quietly squeezed from more than 40,000 to within 10,000......

And in this ranking, more "script hunters" are eyeing it.

It wasn't until the next day that Kevin reacted later, and in his frustration, he could only pray all day that this rookie idiot would sell him the script stupidly, and he even sent more than two dozen private messages on the website one after another, hoping that NB would talk to him.

But alas, NB didn't respond to him, and Kevin's worst fear still happened, a new price tag appeared!

"Damn it~!!" The moment Kevin saw the new price tag, he slammed the table angrily, and then quickly his emotions fell to the bottom and he collapsed in his seat.

Because he understands that from this moment on, these scripts are no longer his share...... Those second-level or even first-level production managers will not give him any chance at all.

In just a few days, Sony, Universal, Paramount, Fox, Lionsgate, ...... More and more "script hunters" are starting to notice this guy called "NB".

In the offices of various film and television companies, more and more production managers began to discuss this talented screenwriter.

"Who is this screenwriter named NB? I'm a newcomer when I look at the picture, but the storyboarding technique is definitely top-notch......"

"In addition to many masterpieces, he also has a lot of Chinese scripts, and it can be speculated that he is a Chinese."

"All scripts have Chinese above the B level? Is this possible? This guy should be an overseas Chinese, maybe a cutting-edge director cultivated by Warner or others, isn't that Lin Yibin who filmed "Fast and Furious 3"? ”

"I don't think he can write so many good scripts at once, he should be a company screenwriter team."

In this way, in the heated discussion in this special Hollywood collective, the price of Gu Xiaofan's script has also risen all the way.

From $500, to $1,000, to $5,000...... $10,000...... Rising exponentially~!

It almost took less than a week, and the price tag of all the scripts uploaded by Gu Xiaofan with European and American backgrounds exceeded 50,000 US dollars, especially the price of "Game of Thrones" has been raised to 220,000 US dollars by HBO TV Company, officially becoming an A+ level script~!!

All those who follow this matter are amazed~~!

Oh, my God~!! A week, just a week...... A rookie screenwriter with a ranking of more than 40,000 has jumped to the top 20 of the West Bund Screenwriters Guild......

This is definitely a legendary event in Hollywood!

But to the disappointment of all the "script hunters", this NB did not respond at any point and seemed uninterested in all the bids......
