Cangshan Prison ......

Wang Shang followed the leadership of the city leaders and walked through the iron gate of the prison and entered the prison.

The prison has more than a dozen large buildings, many of which are connected and separated by a network of separations, and in addition to the large prison buildings, there are also several relatively large squares.

You can see the bluestone masonry, mottled stumps, and you can see a lot of vines and creepers spreading, all of which show the erosion of the years and tell its wind and frost.

Cangshan Prison is not an ordinary prison, it was built in the Qing Dynasty, and has gone through the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China, the Anti-Japanese War, and the Republic...... Countless baptisms of war, naturally there have been many celebrity prisoners from the Qing Dynasty to modern times......

The tour guide consultant who led the team led the whole team forward introduced at the same time, so that Wang Shang had a deeper understanding of this prison.

Jiang Zheng and Wang Shang walked side by side at this time: "Mr. Wang, you can think more about our side, you must have investigated before, our city now has a tourism development plan, and the location is this Cangshan area, where there are abundant lakes and rivers resources, more rich forest resources, beautiful scenery, as well as hot springs, grasslands, but unfortunately this tourism development plan has an indelible flaw, that is, this Cangshan Prison." ”

Wang Shang nodded: "I have indeed read the information on tourism development, and I will not hide it from the mayor of the city, and I will be moved by this tourism development plan, so I will be the first to choose to inspect this prison." ”

"Hahaha, really? Thank you so much!! Jiang Zheng laughed, and everyone in the government seemed happy when they heard Wang Shang's words, Wang Shang said this means that he has a greater grasp.

Wang Shang stood on the playground and looked around the entire prison and said: "If you want to talk about prison tourism, there is still no prison in China, but there are many prisons abroad that are very popular with tourists, such as Fremantle Prison in Australia, Devil's Island in Guyana, and Tu Si Lien Prison in Cambodia...... Today, the most famous in the world is the Tower of London, England, which was built in 1078. It has been used as a former British royal residence, an armoury, a vault, a zoo, a historical archive, and a prison. Edward V, Richard, Duke of York, William Wallace, Rudolph Heath and other famous figures have been imprisoned there, and it is currently one of London's most popular tourist attractions. ”

"Haha. We had the same idea when we first made the travel plan, and we have a lot of historical celebrities who have been imprisoned in this prison, and we can follow those prisons abroad and make a tourist project to attract tourists, so that we can turn this prison into a treasure. The director of the Municipal Tourism Bureau also said excitedly at this time.

Wang Shang inspected the prison, which was very suitable for his idea of making a movie prison.

In the afternoon, under the leadership of Jiang Zheng and others, he swam the nearby mountains and rivers, and then soaked in the hot springs, during which the people from the tourism bureau also introduced Wang Shang to the detailed plan of tourism development. Of course, the people in the government are not without purpose. At present, there is still a gap in the funds of the tourism plan, they want to stimulate investment, and Wang Shang, the God of Wealth, is naturally a good investor, they clearly know that the tourist island of "Biochemical Apocalypse" has some shares belonging to Tianwang Film and Television.

And as long as it is rumored that Tianwang Film and Television will also invest in tourism here, with Wang Shang's influence, it will definitely attract a large number of investors to come in.

"We are going to build a yachting park, a heliport, a spa area, a climbing area, a golf course. Plus prison tourism...... Now that the pace of the city is getting faster and faster, and the air is getting worse and worse, there are high-quality natural resources here, so naturally they can't be wasted. The staff of the tourism bureau kept talking, but it did not bore Wang Shang.

Wang Shang naturally knew what they meant, to be honest, today's field trip made Wang Shang a little tempted, anyway, recently Oriental TV has begun to make a lot of profits with advertising fees and peripheral products. And Tianwang Film and Television Group has also reaped a lot of dividends because of IMAX, 3D, special effects and other technologies, as well as one movie after another, and it is easy to invest one-tenth of it.

After thinking about it, Wang Shang officially finalized this Cangshan Prison to become the filming location of "The Shawshank Redemption", and as for the investment plan, Wang Shang has called someone to come over for an evaluation.

When the city leader found a place to entertain Wang Shang and his party, Wang Shang heard a very interesting thing. Several foreigners said that they came to China this time because they heard the spicy food of western Sichuan in "A Bite of China", so they came from abroad to taste it.

The words of a few foreigners made Wang Shang and the others hear it clearly, and Jiang Zheng and his party immediately gave Wang Shang a thumbs up.

――――――――――――

June 1, 2014.

"The Shawshank Redemption", which has attracted the attention of countless fans and filmmakers, finally announced a piece of news - the Cangshan Prison in Sichuan was determined as a pick-up point.

This time the fans cheered, every news about Wang Shangxin's movie will make fans like it, and the media will keep reporting it.

However, those who expected Wang Shang to go to his district prison to shoot were a little depressed. Another good opportunity to make a name for himself was lost.

Before they could digest much, the next day Tianwang Film and Television announced that Tianwang Film and Television Group had reached a series of cooperation agreements with the Sichuan Metropolitan Government, investing 2 billion yuan to develop the tourism industry around Cangshan Prison, and at the same time building the first prison tourist attraction in China.

After the news came out, it immediately attracted a lot of heated discussions.

"Cangshan Prison? Tourism? ”

"Cheers from the people of Chuandu!!"

"The people of Sichuan Province issued a congratulatory message, and there will be one more tourist area!!"

"Someone organized a group to go to Cangshan Prison to have a look? I heard that this prison is still a prison with a long history, and many historical celebrities have been imprisoned. ”

Cangshan, the capital of Sichuan, suddenly became the focus of China, reporters and tourists couldn't help but rush over with curiosity, and the local government showed its face in front of the people of the whole country, and kept introducing how good the local area is to reporters. There are also many real estate developers, investors, hotels, restaurants, supermarkets and other businesses to investigate the past to see if there is a possibility of making a profit.

Seeing all this, the people in the Sichuan Metropolitan Government laughed so much that their mouths were crooked.

With the increasing development of the Internet, the fan economy is gradually blooming, and Wang Shang's fans and influence are obviously extremely huge, and one action can easily cause a series of economic effects. The heated discussion on the development of Cangshan tourism is obviously one of the most significant cases.

However, despite all the discussions outside, Wang Shang went to the prison to see Zhang Jiahui once, and then went home to concentrate on writing the script.

The movies in the previous time and space were great, so Wang Shang would not change them with his pen, so the script was written quickly.

However, there are some things that need to be changed. For example, the reason why the second character, Jiang Ruide (the old black Red in the original movie), went to prison, the original movie was that Red committed murder when he was 20 years old (1954), insured his wife who was three years older with a large amount of life insurance, and then moved on the brakes of the Chevrolet car given by her father, causing his wife's death. This background is inappropriate to put in Huaxia, because Huaxia was founded in 1954 and is very backward.

However, the protagonist's reason for being imprisoned does not need to be changed, because in 1973, there were already many people in Huaxia who had houses and cars, and the financial industry was also very prosperous, and the protagonist's career banker and car were no problem.

copied the script, then changed a lot of places, and finally finalized the script.

Subsequently, Wang Shang drew a large number of scene albums to facilitate future shooting.

While writing the script, Wang Shang was also thinking about finding the actor who played Jiang Ruide, who was an important figure interspersed throughout the movie and appeared in a very large number of scenes.

"The Shawshank Redemption" is not a movie where popcorn overrides acting skills like "Transformers" and "Avatar", but a movie based on acting skills, and the casting should naturally be cautious. For such an important role, Wang Shang hopes most that he can find an actor to play, so that he can toss a little less. Another point is that Wang Shang does not plan to look for foreign actors, but all of them are Chinese actors.

After thinking about it, Wang Shang came up with a way.......
