Chapter 416: World-class film and television scripts
"Conditions?"
Generally speaking, when an author sells various copyrights, what he has to talk about is the issue of manuscript fees. However, for Chen Jiayi, is he still more or less accountant than the draft?
"You help me convey to Bayi Film Factory, just say that it's okay to buy the copyright of the TV series "Soldier Assault", but I have to ......pick the actor roles of the TV series."
The soldier assault of later generations is extremely classic. In order to restore the classics of later generations, Chen Jiayi put forward this condition.
"This, I'm afraid ......"
How is it possible for the editor to select the actors? Of course, since the editor is more familiar with the script, perhaps you can suggest. However, it's all up to you to pick, and this is absolutely impossible in the film industry. It's their business for other film companies to make movies, how can they let an editor dictate. What's more, Chen Jiayi is not an editor, but an author of a work.
"You don't have to worry about it for now, I have a list here, you just hand it over."
Chen Jiayi didn't care about Bao Jianfeng, so he sent this task.
This list, in fact, Chen Jiayi just picked a few leading actors, and the rest doesn't matter.
Chen Jiayi really likes these leading actors. Whether it is Xu Sanduo played by the protagonist Wang Baoqiang, or the commander of the Seventh Company of Steel played by "Zhang Guoqiang", or the squad leader "Shi Jin" played by "Zhang Yi", or "Yuan Lang" played by "Duan Yihong...... Especially Wang Baoqiang, after many people have seen Wang Baoqiang's performance of Xu Sanduo, they all say that Wang Baoqiang is acting in his true colors. Almost, his image, his speech...... and Xu Sanduo, a character who has reached an astonishing consistency.
In this way, after the later generation of "Wang Baoqiang" played the number one character of Xu Sanduo. Many people regard Wang Baoqiang as the real Xu Sanduo, even if Wang Baoqiang has acted in other TV series. For example, like my brother's name is Shunyu, the same, such a character is also the same character of Xu Sanduo, the same simplicity.
"Okay, I'll talk to them."
Although Bao Jianfeng is Chen Jiayi's subordinate, he also feels that this request is a bit excessive.
Probably, none of the studios would agree. However, as subordinates, what they are doing is not to deny, but to do it in this direction. Moreover, after Bao Jianfeng read this list, with his understanding of these actors, he really felt that this list was tailor-made for the Soldier Assault TV series.
The most critical actor, Xu Sanduo, chose the role of Wang Baoqiang, which is a perfect match.
Although Wang Baoqiang is not yet famous in later generations, Bao Jianfeng, who knows more about the entertainment industry, has some images of Wang Baoqiang. This actor who won the "Best Actor Award" at the 5th Deville Film Festival in France, the "Best Newcomer Award" at the 40th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards and the "Best Actor Award" at the 2nd Bangkok International Television Festival with a blind well, can be said that Wang Baoqiang has just debuted and has already shown good acting skills.
Coupled with the appearance characteristics of "Wang Baoqiang", it is simply a live Xu Sanduo, if Wang Baoqiang is not elected as the male number one, Bao Jianfeng will sigh a pity. Although some of the later characters are not very well known to Bao Jianfeng, the characters selected from the protagonists are so accurate. Bao Jianfeng believes that Chen Jiayi is not writing casually.
So, after communicating with Chen Jiayi, Bao Jianfeng took this cast list and conveyed Chen Jiayi's meaning.
"What...... Chen Jiayi wants to choose actors. ”
In the Bayi Film Factory, I am very depressed today. They didn't expect that Chen Jiayi, who has always performed well in the media, was so arrogant and robbed their film studio of the right to choose actors.
"Chief of Staff, you are discouraged, and the net has said it. This list is also a cast list that Chen Jiayi took a long time to select. Moreover, Chen Jiayi is the author of the Soldier Assault, so he naturally knows the work better than us. Presumably, the selected actors should be not bad, so let's take a look at this list for the time being. Anyway, we don't have a candidate for the time being. If it really doesn't work, we can also consider giving up this TV series plan. ”
At this time, Li Kaifeng started a round on the side.
"Hmph."
Wang Hongcheng snorted coldly, did not agree, and did not deny. However, Li Kaifeng inspected and observed, but he seized the opportunity and began to read this list, "The protagonist Xu Sanduo, played by Wang Baoqiang." ”
Wang Baoqiang...... Wang Baoqiang is good. ”
Speaking of Wang Baoqiang, they are naturally very familiar with those who shoot film and television. …,
Immediately, Li Kaifeng landed on the Internet, searched for Wang Baoqiang's photos, and then compared them with Xu Sanduo's characters.
"A perfect match."
Wang Baoqiang played Xu Sanduo, and he really had nothing to say.
"Okay, Wang Baoqiang is barely compliant."
Although Wang Hongcheng was very angry, Wang Baoqiang played Xu Sanduo, and he also thought it was very good, and he didn't have the anger he had at the beginning.
Subsequently, the company commander Zhang Guoqiang, the squad leader Zhang Yi, Yuan Lang, and Duan Yihong...... It's all very good.
"Chief of Staff, it seems that this Chen Jiayi has really spent a lot of effort, I think this list is very good."
Bayi Film Factory is just to promote patriotic education, and does not want to cultivate any stars. Therefore, what actors are not actors, they don't value it very much. Moreover, they will try their best to use newcomers in these patriotic education films, because they don't want to choose an entertainment star who is too entertaining, this is patriotic education after all, not entertainment. This list, except for Wang Baoqiang, who is a little famous, is actually not famous. The rest of the people are pure newcomers, and even those who are said to be playing tricks are similar.
"Since you think Lao Li is good, then do what you want."
Hearing this, Wang Hongcheng was still angry in his heart. But seeing this cast list, it is barely compliant, so I don't bother with Chen Jiayi. Besides, he didn't dare to deal with Chen Jiayi. He is a small chief of staff of a film and television company, and he can only get angry in the film factory, how dare he run to talk to Chen Jia.
At this point, Soldier Assault officially signed the copyright of the TV series, and contacted the actors to officially start filming.
"Chen Jiayi's new work Soldier Assault officially started filming a TV series."
A piece of news, don't be surprised.
There is no exaggerated hype, and there is not much publicity, just a piece of news has attracted the attention of many people.
"Cow, really cow."
Readers have sighed that this soldier assault has only been uploaded for a few days. Although Chen Da updated quickly, tens of thousands of words a day. However, in a short period of time, the copyright of the TV series has been signed. Moreover, filming has officially begun. Such a speed has made a lot of fans confused. Many readers have lamented greatly in the comments, calling Chen Jia a cow outrageous.
However, some fans said it was understandable.
With Chen Jiayi's fame, movies are all being filmed, not to mention TV series. Moreover, Soldier Assault is also a script written for a TV series. The film and television company bought this script, and there was almost no need to change any lines, and it was completely possible to go into battle and save more time. In addition, the soldier assault tells the growth story of small people. Among them, the protagonist Xu Sanduo, his personality, his persistence, I don't know how many people have been attracted.
Such a genre, moreover, is an inspirational blockbuster full of passion, which film and television company is willing to shoot in any film and television company.
……
"I thought they wouldn't say yes."
After getting all the TV copyrights of the soldiers' assault, Chen Jiayi was relieved.
In fact, what he wants to see most is the release of the Zhuxian TV series. It's a pity that now the movie Zhuxian is going all out. Since it is invested by Tang Dynasty Company, the special effects team of Tang Dynasty Company has also all come out, striving to create a world classic again. This is like this, and the Zhuxian TV series has to be put on hold for the time being.
However, after the Soldier Assault officially started filming the TV series, Chen Jiayi's film and television plans were aroused. Moreover, at the beginning, Chen Jiayi prepared two film and television scripts. One is a soldier assault that belongs to China, and the other is a movie script that belongs to the world. After completing the soldier assault, Chen Jiayi began to prepare for this film plan.
"Which one should I write?"
If you want to talk about world-class movie scripts, Chen Jiayi has a lot of them in his mind. Moreover, they are all Oscar-winning works.
"Avatar?"
This is another masterpiece after the Titanic. It's a pity that the highlight of Avatar is not the plot, but his 3D special effects, which is abandoned. Maybe in the future, Tang Dynasty Company can consider starting filming, but now, there will definitely be no time.
"Slumdog Millionaires."
Don't look at this humble movie, but for this movie, he was the winner of the Best Picture at the 81st Oscars in 2009. Moreover, the plot is also very good. However, the work is too literary and artistic, and if it is not a famous director, he really dare not start making this movie. Because, a lot of literary films have to face the streets. This is the same as the novels of the Internet, novels that are too literary can only hit the streets. Only those who have reached a certain level in literature, art and commerce will be welcomed by everyone.
The principle of moving the Oscars is to strive for a balance between literature, art and commerce. However, if literature and art account for the majority, a large number of film critics, including critics, think that the work is great and distinctive. However, the box office of the work is very bad, so the Oscar will not give him the award. After all, movies are the art of the masses, and what the masses don't like, some people don't like it anymore, and the Oscar judges know this. …,
After thinking about it for a long time, Chen Jiayi chose to give up.
"Inception."
This work can no longer be described as "stick".
In Chen Jiayi's eyes, he is simply a masterpiece of the times. Such a movie, taking the decisive factor, is the script of Inception, which is really powerful. The novel setting, the difference between dream and reality. Almost anyone who has seen Inception can't help but slap secretly and sigh at the masterpiece.
However, because Inception is too classic, Chen Jiayi is a little reluctant. As the first script to enter the world market, Chen Jiayi didn't want to come up with such a classic work. If any guy is trampled on, he regrets it. It wasn't until the end that Chen Jia thought of a movie, which temporarily suppressed Inception.
This film is similar to "Inception", but he talks about a different story - the source code.
Yes, the script that Chen Jiayi is about to write is the "source code".
It can be said that the entire source code, he has been repeating the same plot before. Moreover, a whole lot of dialogue, including actions, is in the conscious body. In my opinion, the production cost of the show is very, very low. Even, negligible. Of course, when calculated with his box office of hundreds of millions of dollars, it is indeed negligible.
After reading the "source code", many media commented one after another.
Some viewers commented, "The blunt science fiction novel has become touching." It's one of the best sci-fi movies I've ever seen......"
The quantum theory used in the source code is almost a science fiction theory when put into reality.
The New York Times said in Source Code that "thinking is the best action, and a good work of anti-standard action movie." ”
Yes, this movie is all produced when thinking, the plot seems dull at first, and each eight minutes is a new world of thinking. Such films challenge the limits of human thinking again and again.
In the last 8 minutes, the protagonist says, "You thought you had only created 8 minutes of the past, but not only that, you have created a new world......"
With such a classic script, Chen Jia felt very excited when he copied it.
Such a script, without much effort, can be used for one's own use at once, which must be something that a lot of people dream of.
Thinking of this, Chen Jiayi sped up his typing speed. An hour later, the "source code" script was finally finished.
Where do you send it?
This time, Chen Jiayi did not plan to just post it to the Internet. Because, though, the web is an excellent web platform. However, he is still just a purely Chinese-style online literature platform. And the source code, he belongs to the world. Thinking of this, after Chen Jiayi released the "source code" in the background, he came to the personal homepage of "Renren" and released the source code script.
"Hey brothers, lately I've been obsessed with writing scripts, and after the Soldier Assault, I have another script "source code", looking forward to everyone reading it. Of course, if there is a film and television company that is very interested in this script, you can also contact me directly. ”
This is a sentence written directly by Chen Jiayi after the update of "Buddha is the Tao".
"No, Chen Da has been thinking about it recently. Hold on, don't burn yourself out. ”
For others, renewing the Buddha is the way, and it is inherently a tiring thing. Not only that, but when Chen Jiayi was updating the Buddha's original Tao, he completed all the "soldier assaults" at once. Until now, another script has been thrown. Readers have expressed their worries, what are we going to do if this kid hangs?
In this way, there are some people who understand Chen Jiayi, but they are sighing on the side. But more, how dare you care whether Chen Jiayi is dead or alive. They can't wait for Chen Da to update 100,000 words a day, and that's what will be enjoyable. Therefore, after reading the latest chapter of "Buddha is the Way", they suddenly dared to rush to the "Source Code" book review area. Let's see if this script is another big classic.
"Source code?"
Is it the source code in programming?
This is the question of the reader.
It's not complete, but it's not far off.
With curiosity, readers read one after another.
This is a standard movie script, including scenes, character dialogues, and one scene at a time, all of which are completely script-written.
"Hey, I'm confused."
At first, everyone just felt confused.
Slowly, wait to see a passage, "Create 8 minutes of past." ”
All readers understood in an instant. And said,For this setting,Expressed a very strong curiosity.。 …,
Then, after the reader continues to read it. The entire source code plot appears in its entirety.
If it can be summed up in one sentence, it is that the protagonist uses the past 8 minutes of creation to investigate the Chicago train bombing to find the terrorists and find his next target. And the highlight is in this short 8 minutes. When the protagonist enters the past 8 minutes again and again, and then, facing the same people and the same things, and then unfolds different thinking activities. In the end, the protagonist finally finds out the terrorists completely through 8 minutes.
"It's amazing."
After reading it, countless readers were confused at the beginning, and then suddenly realized. And, with every 8 minutes that the protagonist enters, he will be thrilled. As they watched, they were thinking. In these 8 minutes, who are the terrorists? It was the tall newspaper reader, or the passenger listening to music with his bag on his back. Or, the reader will wonder how the protagonist can find the terrorists through the 8 minutes that have been created.
This kind of plot, in China, has never existed. Even the nets with countless ideas don't have such ideas.
"Chen Da, you can change careers to write science fiction novels."
They didn't expect that Chen Jiayi could write such a good Xianxia novel. is a realistic urban novel, or even a science fiction novel, Chen Jiayi can also write so well.
It's just inside the net.
In Renren.com, because of the forwarding function, plus a large number of friends who like Chen Jiayi. When they saw the "source code" released by Chen Jiayi, they read it one after another. The subsequent performance is also like that of fans. And, because Renren has a forwarding function, they are forwarding one after another. Even, there are some friends who have translated the "source code" into English, French, and other different languages.
And people from all over the world, when they see this work, especially people from Europe and the United States. They are even more excited about this sci-fi script than Chinese fans. After all, this kind of science fiction novel has always been highly anticipated by European and American readers. Now a source code, the mysterious quantum theory, parallel space, traveling, creating the past 8 minutes...... There are too many settings, and they are fascinated all the time.
Moreover, this kind of script, his brilliant creativity, completely subverted the Hollywood blockbuster.
"Oh God, I think this should be a world-class film and television script."
After reading it, many readers in Europe and the United States exclaimed, and while sighing, they also forwarded it from time to time. They hope that some of Hollywood's most famous directors can see such a script and shoot it directly. Moreover, this work, in terms of length, he doesn't need to spend much money at all. However, if it is made well, it may be possible to create a world-class film. RO
