Chapter 148: Luzhou Studio
Hai Yan who wrote Haiyan dramas, Wang Shuo who wrote Chinese New Year dramas, Du Liang who wrote military dramas, Liu Zhenyun who wrote "1942", and Shi Kang who wrote "Struggle" are all excellent writers, and then there was an invitation to TV and movie adaptations and changed careers to become screenwriters.
The essence of the reason for this is that the writer has the imagination of the original story, while the screenwriter only has the ability to process the finished product, the imagination is innate, and the processing ability is acquired. Many screenwriters in China have absolutely nothing to say in terms of skills, and the transition arrangements of many scripts are quite excellent.
However, they just lack imagination.
Therefore, no matter how complete the structure of the script is, after it is filmed, it may still be a piece of.
As early as the 70s, 80s, and 90s, many works of great writers, full of ideological works, were adapted by screenwriters, the most representative of which is Yu Hua's "Alive". These works have been adapted by literary and artistic techniques to tell the story, which has won high praise and won many awards internationally.
However, in the era of commercial films, without the support of literary works, screenwriters need to exert their creative abilities, and it will be over. Nine out of ten screenwriters are going to hit the streets, creating a huge reputation for domestic bad movies. With the rise of online literature and the increase of original IP content, a number of high-quality TV series and movies have gradually exploded.
So from the very beginning, many people in the film and television industry have reversed the status of authors and screenwriters.
thinks that it is the screenwriter who has made the film and television works, and the film and television have become popular, which is the credit of the director and the credit of the actors. That's the credit of the screenwriter, but I forgot to count how much credit the author has. Even some screenwriters think it in a grand way. His ability to adapt is very strong, and fire is his own ability. It's not the original book, it's just that he chose a certain novel to adapt.
This is probably one of the strange phenomena in the film and television industry.
The summer day in August is the hottest time of the year.
The air conditioner in the small western-style building was blowing cold wind, and Zhang Tan hid in the air-conditioned room and wrote the script in retreat.
He has never studied the profession of screenwriting, to be honest, laymen rarely write scripts directly, but Zhang Tan's screenwriting ability is not a blind blow, and the TV series is the finished product of the script. Many screenwriters have to watch a lot of TV series with different themes before writing scripts. to give the script a framework in your head.
The most difficult part of the script is undoubtedly the sub-scene and sub-shot, each scene and every scene are very detailed, which is an ability that Zhang Tan does not have.
And Zhang Tan's advantage is that he has a lot of ready-made products in his head, the 83 version and the 94 version of "Shooting the Condor", almost all of them are rotten in his heart, and the 03 version of CCTV's "Shooting the Condor" has also been watched a few times, and it can be said that he remembers many classic scenes in it. Only by these memories, of course. You can't write a script.
The script is an elaboration of the entire directing process, with strict requirements on how to transition, how to leave blanks, and how to let the actors play freely.
However, Liu Changshan and the three left, but left their semi-finished scripts.
Zhang Tan is not pretentious to the point of having a half-finished product and not using it. In fact, although the script of Liu Changshan and the three of them is a little frizzy, most of the transitions and foreshadowing are well done, and they can be directly applied.
Half-finished script. Plus Zhang Tan's classic picture.
The script put together in this way will definitely not be bad.
This is where Zhang Tan's confidence lies.
"During the summer vacation. All TV stations are broadcasting Jin Yong's martial arts dramas, and there is no place to transfer them if they want to. I could only force myself to watch it over and over again, and it almost became a nightmare. Now is the time for you martial arts dramas that have ravaged me for many years, the time to repay your kindness, whether you can reproduce the excitement of your past depends on whether the script is successfully written or not. ”
Smack.
Fingers are tapping text on the keyboard.
Outside the day.
Days.
Such and such a scene.
There are a number of props depicted.
So-and-so actor reads a certain line.
Where do you need to add expressions and movements?
The content of the first scene and the second scene.
Zhang Tan's speed in writing the script is simply like a spring of thoughts, and he can write a scene in minutes. The impression in my mind is that when he was writing novels, he desperately rushed out, and now when he writes scripts, he is also desperately trying to emerge. Even if there is a blur, Zhang Tan's method of dealing with it is very simple, that is, to leave blank.
No matter how perfect the script is, when the director executes it, he may not strictly follow it.
On the contrary, the director's on-the-spot performance is also a more important part, a good screenwriter knows how to leave blank space in the place where it should be, and let the director and actors play on their own. Zhang Tan, who has a semi-finished script as the foundation and is still a junior brother, is undoubtedly already half a good screenwriter.
……
Zhang Tan closed the door to thank the guests, and the world never stopped turning because of him.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes", under the leadership of Zhang Dabeard, Yu Min, Zhao Jian and others, has preliminarily selected the location to be involved in the TV series. The Mongolian desert part was filmed in Inner Mongolia, and the Taohua Island part was filmed in a Taohua town on the side of Zhoushan.
Several other places were filmed in Zhenbeibao Film and Television City and Hengdian Film and Television City.
And the actors have also released rumors one after another, and the actor has basically determined Li Jixiong, the male star is the male protagonist of the last martial arts film in Zhang Dabeard's studio. The heroine is talking to Zhao Yanzi, and if possible, she will invite Zhao Yanzi to play Huang Rong. The male No. 2 Yang Kang chose the mainland's high-quality idol Lu Jian, and the female No. 2 Mu Nianci chose Zhao Yanzi's fellow sister Song Yingying.
The cast basically revolves around these four people, firing who will audition today, and firing who will have no time tomorrow, and the chaos is incomprehensible.
This is also the usual hype technique of Zhang Dabeard.
"The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is in preparation, and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" is on sale.
Wrapped in the current popularity of "Shooting the Condor", the appearance of "The Condor" can be described as a precedent, and it has the momentum to hit the sales figure of one million copies immediately. Anwei Literature and Art Publishing House, the idea of holding a book signing party for Zhang Tan is even stronger, if it weren't for the fact that Zhang Tan still has to go to school, I really hope that Zhang Tan will sign it once a week.
Now the publisher hopes that when a new book is released every month, Zhang Tan can participate in a book signing meeting.
In this regard, Zhang Tan decisively refused.
He plans to retract his heart, take advantage of the fact that martial arts are not completely lonely, and create a few more classics with peace of mind. These classics, as long as they are held in their hands, are a steady stream of income in the future.
In fact, if it weren't for the trouble, Zhang Tan wouldn't even want to write the script himself.
Delay time.
In this regard, the president of Anwei Literature and Art Publishing House came forward in person: "Zhang Tan, you have to sign one or two games." ”
"Isn't there still two book signing sessions left in August, one for the sea and one for Wu Khan, after signing these two, I signed a total of five book signing sessions for "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", too often, too much, isn't it."
"Then the last volume on New Year's Day is on the shelves, you come to sign it again, it shouldn't be troublesome, right? I'll contact the bookstore in Beijia and arrange a big book signing party for you in Beiya. ”
Zhang Tan hesitated: "Well, let's talk to my studio in detail when the time comes." ”
His studio, Li Yan has already registered on behalf of him, and the registered business is a self-employed business, and the legal person is Zhang Quanshun, because Zhang Tan is not yet eighteen years old.
For this studio, Li Yan almost broke her leg during this time.
Although the studio is currently only operating copyright, it does not need any formal office location, and it can be used as a studio if you take out a set of houses bought by Zhang Tan's parents. However, although the sparrow is small and has all the organs, there should be employees, and the first thing is that the company must have its own legal department.
The operation of copyright itself involves various legal provisions, and the importance of the legal department is self-evident.
The second is the financial department, this Zhang Tan plans to hand over to his parents to manage on his behalf, and he is also like an ordinary small boss, with careful thinking about cronyism. Besides, even if Zhang Tan doesn't think so, his parents will take care of it directly, his son is not yet eighteen, and it is natural for his parents to help his son take care of his career.
"Dad, Mom, you go to the studio to take care of the finances, take care of me at the Internet café, let's transfer it, it's not cost-effective to get tired all day."
Now that his career is booming and he is making a lot of money, Zhang Tan is becoming more and more disdainful of the little business in the Internet café at home. And Internet cafes are relatively chaotic, and there are often some small ruffians. The little gangsters and the like go in and out, not afraid of 10,000, just in case, if something happens, the impact is not good.
Zhang Quanshun and Tan Mingxia are a little reluctant, although the money from the Internet café is not as much as Zhang Tan's, but it is visible money, and money comes every day. Now the glorious momentum of the Internet café has not been seen at all, even if Dayang Town has opened two new Internet cafes, it still can't make the Internet café at home cold.
However, for the sake of their son's career, the husband and wife still reluctantly cut their love and transferred the Internet café to the lobby brother of the uncle's family.
Brother Lobby works in a transformer factory, and often has not worked for several months, so it is just right to open an Internet café. And Zhang Tan is also close to the uncle's family, Brother Lobby often took care of him when he was a child, of course, he has to repay Brother Lobby. The elder brother and sister-in-law are both ordinary workers, and they have children to raise, so they can't afford it. Zhang Tan waved his hand and said that he owed it, and he would pay it back when the Internet café made money.
It is equivalent to giving the Internet café to the lobby brother's family.
Without the Internet café, Zhang Tan's parents can concentrate on the management of the studio. Because Zhang Tan still has plans to become a director in the future, the scale of the studio will definitely expand, so his parents are also busy in the studio while learning some basic financial knowledge to cope with the future.
Fortunately, both of them are still young, in their forties, and the Spring and Autumn Period is at its peak.
Busy.
Writing the script, running the book signing club, and coming back to write the script, more than a week has passed. At the end of August, before leaving for Wu Khan's last stop book signing, Zhang Tan completed the script of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and sent it to the director team of the crew.
At the same time, Shanghuayuan Community, Heqi City.
A small studio registered as "Luzhou Studio" opened in a low-key manner. (To be continued.) )
