Chapter 773: Fantasy Industry Madness

"Really...... You didn't lie to me...... Did you dew a point? Father Gu still asked suspiciously. 【Reading.com】.com

"I'm still dew! I didn't even show my mother's face! Gu Xiaofan replied angrily, can the domestic media not hack him!

Father Gu said some more: "You must pay attention to your own image, our old Gu family, just you, an artist, can't be lost." After nagging for a long time, Gu Xiaofan hung up the phone.

After Gu Xiaofan finished breakfast, he heard that there was some noise outside, and he was scolded by his father just now for no reason, and he was in a bad mood, so he couldn't help muttering and scolding: "That bastard is making trouble outside!" "I also wondered in my heart, the crew stayed in a hotel in Fort William, the town was very quiet, why was it noisy today?

Gu Xiaofan complained and put on his coat, opened the door, walked out of the hotel, organized the crew, and was about to go to the square of the town to gather the whole team, but as soon as he walked out of the hotel, Gu Xiaofan suddenly saw several big men wearing "armor" rushing over, and reached out to grab him when he wanted to come over viciously.

Gu Xiaofan was taken aback, instinctively started the program, and used wrestling techniques, and the four big men in armor fell out.

I heard a burst of exclamation, Gu Xiaofan looked up and looked stupid, there were hundreds of people on both sides of the town road at the hotel gate, and when he saw him come out and throw people out, after the exclamation, he broke out into cheers and screams:

"That's the little devil Gu Xiaofan!" "Oh, how can he be so tall!" "Oh my God, he's much more handsome than the little devil in the TV series!" "He's too good! I can't even see how he threw people out all at once. ”

Then countless people excitedly and excitedly, rhythmically shouted and cheered: "Little devil! "Little devil!" "Little devil!" cheered and applauded the crew.

Gu Xiaofan, Liu Shishi, Chen Keer, and everyone in the crew were stupid, what is the situation.

At this time, the few white strong men who were wearing various plastic armor and were smashed to pieces by Gu Xiaofan got up, ignoring the pain on their bodies, and said excitedly:

"We are both senior members of the 'Westeros Continental Research Society' from England, Director Gu, can you let us throw it?"

Apparently these people are members of some fantasy fan group in Scotland......

Gu Xiaofan saw that these Scottish otaku men were about to rush over again, and he was so frightened that he waved his hand again and again: "No need!" "He's still going to shoot, and if he gets hurt by these fantasy fans, it's going to be a joke.

"Then you let us join the crew as extras, we're free! We can play anything, knights, robbers, civilians! It's okay~" One of the brown-haired men said with anticipation on his face, eager to say that he could play a prostitute......

Gu Xiaofan thought that the crew was worried about cutting expenses, and there were free extras in vain, so he nodded with a smile: "Okay, then you go to our extras director to sign up." ”

Those few people couldn't help but show off like victors when they heard this, and they clammed their chests excitedly and roared: "Long live the 'Westeros Continental Research Society'!" ”

The residents of the surrounding town of Fort William also burst into applause.

Seeing that the people in the whole town in front of them welcomed them, cheering and applauding, Gu Xiaofan, Liu Shishi, and Chen Keer all felt a little trance-like when they looked at the scene in front of them, isn't this a dream...... didn't expect "Game of Thrones" to broadcast its first episode, and the whole town is full of their fans?

The crew had just gotten into the car surrounded by the residents of the town, and Gu Xiaofan received another phone call from Martin with great interest.

"Director Gu, look at the 'Nebula Award' forum, it's really lively."

"What's wrong? Has anyone scolded us? Gu Xiaofan frowned slightly when he heard this, quickly turned on the computer, and logged in to the "Nebula Award" forum to take a look.

But I saw that this fantasy novel forum has already fried the pot, and countless fantasy fans are posting to discuss the broadcast of the first episode of "Game of Thrones":

"I watched "Game of Thrones" yesterday, it's a movie-level adaptation, I watched the part about the strange ghost, and I didn't sleep all night."

"It's so well made, the close-up of the 'Ice' is even more elaborate than the Frost Sorrow design in World of Warcraft, and I get goosebumps when I see it."

"I think the best thing the crew did was that the actors were selected very well, especially that little devil, Gu Xiaofan acted so well that I forgot what he looked like."

In addition to these praising posts, the posting place is mainly divided into three factions, the first is the "Ice and Fire Original" faction, which is all scolding: "What kind of thing is adapted?" Why don't you shoot according to the original? The details of the changes have lost the flavor of the original. "I still like the descriptions in the novel, and I don't have any imagination when it is adapted into images, and the queen is not the sexy type I think she is."

The second group is the "Game of Thrones" cheering faction", they are all extremely satisfied with the adaptation of the series, and they are clamoring for Gu Xiaofan to be shortlisted for the "Nebula Award for Best Adapted Screenplay" literary award.

"Who said the adaptation is not good! I think the drama is much tighter than the novel! If you shoot according to the original book, you can shoot the scenery for 5 minutes! ”

"The little devil is portrayed more profoundly than in the book, and Ned is also more plump than the original book, this large-length adaptation can still be so good, Gu Xiaofan's literary accomplishment is definitely not inferior to Martin!"

The two factions of people launched all kinds of fierce debates at the "Nebula Award" forum, and there were leading figures in both factions, laying out facts, reasoning, and salivating.

In contrast, the last group of people is even more powerful, and this group of people is called the "extras faction".

Gu Xiaofan took a closer look, and Old Martin was actually talking about him posting a post to openly recruit various extras for "Game of Thrones", and as a result, fantasy fans all over the world were in a surge, preferring to pay for air tickets and hotels by themselves, and also to participate in the filming of the first epic fantasy drama in history.

The number of applicants for this post has exceeded 10,000 people, and it is still increasing rapidly.

Old Martin smiled proudly on the phone: "Director Gu, look at it, we were worried that the population of Scotland was too sparse and we couldn't invite extras, and I have already solved it for you~haha~ When I was filming "The Lord of the Rings", Peter Jackson also used this trick, but I didn't expect me to have Tolkien's appeal~"

Old Martin, who was scolded by the fantasy industry for selling the adaptation rights to Black Feather Studio, is finally ashamed this time, how can he not be happy.

Gu Xiaofan didn't fully react when he listened. , Chen Keer was also looking at the webpage next to him, and couldn't help reminding Gu Xiaofan:

"It seems that you are definitely going to be shortlisted for the 'Nebula Award for Best Adapted Screenplay' this year, this is the Oscar of fantasy fiction, and you seem to be the first Chinese...... to be shortlisted"

What the...... Am I shortlisted for a world-class literary award?

Gu Xiaofan felt more and more in a trance, he didn't expect that the first award he was shortlisted for after the Oscars would be the ...... Literary Award?
