Chapter 271 Scene 271 A genius in the world of screenwriting

What's even more strange is that these three script themes of this kid happened to be at the meeting of Huayi Company, and the company prepared several themes for Feng Xiaogang's transformation in the past ten years, which seemed to be tailor-made for Huayi Company.

The more Wang Zonglei watched, the more he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and he was crazy with joy, especially the script of "Night Banquet", his favorite was "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero" in the European and American markets, and the overseas box office was several times that of China.

At this time, Wang Zonglei desperately suppressed the passionate emotions in his heart to make himself less excited, but coughed dryly and said in a low voice:

"Well, these three books are really okay, but I don't know if the copyright is in the hands of Director Li." He had long heard that this Li Xiaole was the founder of the famous screenwriting website "Screenwriters Republic" in the United States, and he had a deep friendship, for fear that he stole the book from the website, and in fact there was no copyright.

Li Xiaole smiled and didn't answer directly, but just clicked on the website of the West Bund Screenwriters Association, entered his member ID password, opened the number of his registered script in front of Wang Zonglei, and showed him the information of the script registration one by one.

"That's good, that's good~" Wang Zonglei finally laughed, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't help but pinch Li Xiaole's shoulder, and sighed: "Director Li, you are really an eye-opener for laymen like me, to be honest, I don't understand whether these scripts are good or not, can you let me think about it." ”

"Of course, Mr. Wang, you don't have to rush to promise me." After Li Xiaole said this, after a few words of greeting, he shook hands with him with a smile and said goodbye, he knew that Wang Zonglei needed time to think about it.

As soon as Li Xiaole was sent away, Wang Zonglei impatiently called the company's royal screenwriter Liu Zhenyun: "Teacher Liu, come quickly, help me take a look at a few books......"

Half an hour later, the dusty Liu Zhenyun pushed open the door of the office, and after learning that Wang Zonglei was asking him to write three scripts, the gray-haired and gloomy writer had a very puzzled expression.

Wang Zonglei can fully understand Liu Zhenyun's doubts, you must know that the middle-aged man with gray hair in front of him is one of the current banner figures in the Chinese literary world, and he is a great writer alongside Mo Yan, Wang Shuo, and Yu Hua.

In the film and television industry, everyone envies the great director Feng Xiaogang Behind it, there is a generation of grandmasters like Wang Shuo in the literary world as a screenwriter to help him, but it is easy to ignore it, Liu Zhenyun, who also has high prestige in the literary world, is the key to the reviewer of the real script of Feng Xiaogang's movie.

It's really inappropriate to bother a great writer like him to come over in person, and it's really inappropriate to just read three scripts.

When the puzzled Liu Zhenyun looked at the names of Li Xiaole's three movie scripts, he took a deep breath, turned around and asked Wang Zonglei with a ridiculous expression:

"Zong Lei, who wrote this."

"That Li Xiaole of China Film Company, this is the script he sent to us." Wang Zonglei replied with a strange expression.

"Li Xiaole?" Liu Zhenyun was a little familiar with this name, and after thinking about it, he recalled that he was the director of "Crazy Stone", looked at Wang Zonglei and asked suspiciously:

What does he mean by that? He wrote it all by himself? "How is this possible?

"Yes." Wang Zonglei nodded meaningfully: "He wants me to borrow Ge You's schedule, and these three scripts are said to be given to us." ”

"It's kind of interesting." Liu Zhenyun smiled, he hadn't met such an arrogant young man for a long time, and he actually threw three notebooks on the desk of Huayi Company where Wang Shuo and Liu Zhenyun were sitting.

"Let's take a look." Wang Zonglei turned on the computer with a strange expression and asked Liu Zhenyun to sit on his office chair.

"Is this necessary?" Liu Zhenyun wrinkled three horizontal lines like railroad tracks on his forehead, and reluctantly looked at the script, but this look was terrible, and he immediately stared at the screen without blinking.

Wang Zonglei was drinking water next to him, not surprised by Liu Zhenyun's expression at all, when he saw these three scripts just now, his heart was also shaken like this, but he was still a little worried that his judgment was not accurate enough, so he called an expert like Liu Zhenyun to check it.

"Zong Lei." After a full hour and a half, Liu Zhenyun stood up with his mouth open, turned his head and looked at Wang Zonglei in surprise: "Are you sure these are all written by Li Xiaole alone?" Does he have copyright? ”

"I'm not sure either, but he has the copyright." Wang Zonglei sighed.

"This is really ......" Liu Zhenyun took a deep breath and looked incredulous: "How can he do this......"

The other two scripts are just well written, but what really shocked Liu Zhenyun was "1942", the original novel was written by him.

As early as 94, Feng Xiaogang once said to him: "If you trust me, I want to make your "Reminiscences of 1942" into a movie. At that time, he thought that Feng Xiaogang was immature in all aspects and couldn't control this heavy novel, so he rejected him.

It wasn't until 2000 that after Feng's comedy swept the country, he promised Feng Xiaogang to let him prepare for this movie.

At that time, the first step they did was to adapt the original novel into a screenplay, and Feng Xiaogang held a symposium at that time, and talked to many well-known screenwriters and writers about Wang Shuo's adaptation ideas.

After some discussion, more than 20 of China's top people who live by the pen all believe that "Reminiscences of 1942" is an investigative novel, and it is impossible to adapt it into a movie.

This incident made Feng Xiaogang and him depressed for a long time, and they have been tinkering for several years, after continuous adjustment, revision, and design, this script still hasn't come out, Zuihou can't help it, Feng Xiaogang set up an interview team, went to Henan, Shaanxi, Chongqing, collected information a little bit, and made dozens of hours of documentaries, but still didn't come up with a story.

According to Jihua, Feng Xiaogang and he planned to finish filming "Mobile Phone", and they would go to Henan to collect information after the year, but they didn't dare to write until now, but they never expected that a script with a coherent plot and a tight story "1942" appeared in front of him today.

Is this completely Li Xiaole's imagination out of thin air......? But Weishenme's details are richer than those described in his original book? Even if he saw it with his own eyes at this moment, Liu Zhenyun still couldn't believe his eyes.

How did this Li Xiaole do it...... How could he possibly do it...... Liu Zhenyun couldn't figure it out, couldn't figure it out, this kind of thing was completely beyond his rational logic, and he could write a script like "1942" based on his imagination, Li Xiaole's understanding of human nature may have reached an outrageous point......

"Teacher Liu, I want to hear your evaluation of this person." Seeing that Liu Zhenyun was in a daze for a long time without saying a word, Wang Zonglei looked at him curiously and asked.

Liu Zhenyun sobered up from his thoughts, slowly turned his head, looked at Wang Zonglei with a strange expression, and said the same line as Sima Yi after watching Zhuge Liang arrange his troops.

"The ...... of the world's wizards"

Wang Zonglei was also stunned, he didn't expect that even a great writer like Liu Zhenyun would have such a high evaluation of Li Xiaole, it seems that this Li Xiaole can't help but make friends, and immediately picked up the phone and wanted to call Feng Xiaogang, but Liu Zhenyun held it down with his hand.

"Zong Lei, you can't tell Xiaogang this news, with his temperament, showing him these scripts, I'm afraid it will affect the filming ...... of "Mobile Phone"

Wang Zonglei immediately understood that Feng Xiaogang had such a strong self-esteem, if he saw these three books, his mentality would definitely be unbalanced, even if he liked these scripts, Ge You would not lend them to Li Xiaole.

"What can I do? You can't give up these books.。 Wang Zonglei was a little helpless to put down the mobile phone in his hand, after all, the script is important, Feng Xiao is the pillar of their company just now, if he misunderstands what agreement the company has reached with Li Xiaole, as long as the company's ace director, he will have a mustard in his heart, and it will not be good to affect future cooperation.

"That's it, you promise Li Xiaole first, but if you want to tell him that you can't mention these three books, I'll take him to talk to Xiaogang and Youzi, as for whether he can convince Xiaogang and Youzi, it's up to fate." Liu Zhenyun proposed with a complicated expression, not to mention Feng Xiaogang, even himself, when he saw these scripts, he felt that the scripts were written in vain in this life.

"Zong Lei, I'm curious, from the perspective of a professional filmmaker like you, how is Li Xiaole as a director than Xiaogang?" Wang Zonglei looked at him and asked curiously.

"Well...... I've only seen one movie of Li Xiaole, and it's not good to compare. Wang Zonglei was stunned for a moment, but immediately came to a conclusion in his heart, frowned and said slowly:

"This little director's shooting technique is very novel, and he is very accomplished in music and editing, of course, the biggest advantage is his script, if you look at it purely in terms of shooting level, he is worse than Xiaogang, the difference is not jishu, it is a kind of control of the story, it is completely a matter of experience, if he shoots for another two years, I am afraid that he may be able to be on par with the current Xiaogang."

Liu Zhenyun couldn't help but be a little stunned, and was silent for a long time before saying, "Okay, I'll take him to see Xiaogang, and I will definitely try my best to make this happen." ”

After Liu Zhenyun went out, Wang Zonglei leaned on the bench and thought about it, Li Xiaole's talent really made him a publisher who couldn't put it down, if he could dig him up...... What will Huayi's future development reach?

Alas, it's a pity, Li Xiaole is nesting in the second studio of China Film, I'm afraid that Yan Fusheng's gang will get in the way, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fully show his talent, Feng Xiaogang was also forced away by those people back then, how long can this young Li Xiaole survive?

Wang Zonglei appeared in his heart at this time, but it was a dark physiognomy, he used to sell his favor to Feng Xiaogang like this, and when Li Xiaole left Zhongying, would Huayi be his next destination? Thinking of this, Wang Zonglei couldn't help but tap on the table briskly with his fingers, imagining the future of Huayi Company......
