In order to adapt the script well, in addition to the screenwriters Xing Aina, Wang Yun, Wang Shuo, and Yang Qing, he, Xiao Yang, and Ning Hao all have help with the script, and in order to better show the culture and atmosphere of the workplace of foreign companies, He also specially invited Li Ke, the author of the original work, and a number of foreign company executives to provide advice.

Generally speaking, the script adaptation of "Du Lala's Promotion" is getting better, and it is not worrying, but the actor candidate is very headache, Du Lala's role, originally considered Xu Jinglei to play it herself, but soon everyone vetoed this plan, no way, Xu Jinglei has an influential call, and she also has good acting skills, but her age is very hard, she is 34 years old, she should be able to play Du Lala, who has finally grown into a professional and capable HR manager, can let her play Du Lala, who is just starting out in the workplace, it is undoubtedly difficult to play the kind of stunned, simple, The feeling of vitality is estimated to be considered to be pure and cute, but it is better to be a talented female director quietly behind the monitor.

In the Yuquan family and supernova, if you talk about who can best play Du Lala, who is new to the workplace, straightforward, principled, kind to people, and used to work hard, it is naturally Wang Luodan, but with Wang Luodan's age and temperament, it will be difficult for her to play a capable HR manager.

I have to say that Durala is indeed a role with high requirements for actors, and actors need to be able to control two completely different temperaments with ease, and this must be done. It is difficult for older people to pretend to be tender. The powerful aura of the young man can't come out again. It's too difficult and too difficult, not only is there no candidate in the Yuquan family, but I didn't think of who was suitable in the Chinese film industry for a while.

Durala is enough of a headache, and Wang Wei's role as the sales director of the DB key account department is even more of a headache.

The script of "People in Embarrassment". The title is very interesting, and what is even more interesting is that this script is not an independent screenwriter's work, but a script jointly completed by a screenwriting team called Templar Studio, which is an extremely rare situation in China, and it also made Lin Yuquan immediately interested, and did not disappoint him, this is indeed a very interesting script, about the Spring Festival is approaching, and Li Chenggong, the owner of the toy group, returned to Changsha for the New Year, under the persecution of his lover Yanni. Preparing to divorce my wife after the Chinese New Year. As a result, after meeting Niu Geng, a milkman who went to Changsha to collect debts, at the airport. On the way home, they had bad luck and changed modes of transportation, from planes to trains to coaches to bullock carts to ships to cars to trucks, and along the way, there were many ironic stories.

There is no doubt that this is a suitable Chinese New Year comedy, focusing on the theme of people's livelihood, while being full of realism, it is very down-to-earth, whether it is the extramarital affair of the wealthy class, the simplicity of migrant workers who collect debts, or the problem of difficult Spring Festival transportation, it is easy to arouse the psychological resonance of the audience.

What amazed him the most was the design of the script and jokes, especially the plot of changing transportation to advance home and the design of changing tricks to create jokes on different means of transportation.

The fact that the three stinkers are better than Zhuge Liang is once again confirmed, perhaps individually, the Templar Studio may not be considered excellent, but after everyone worked together, they presented an extremely wonderful script.

Maybe even so, there are still a lot of problems with the script of "People in Embarrassment", but as an original comedy film designed to make the audience laugh, it's enough, isn't it?

Of course, Lin Yuquan doesn't mind making "People in Embarrassment" better, but how to improve it will have to wait until I have read the script in detail.

The script of "Gentleman's Makeover" is a script independently developed by Qiu Qingyi in accordance with Lin Yuquan's requirements, and the intention is to create a movie suitable for Sun Honglei to play, Ning Hao also said that it is very wasteful to let Sun Honglei only play a supporting role, he has the ability to play the starring role, as early as the beginning of the year after Sun Honglei signed a contract with Yuquan Family, he asked Qiu Qingyi to pay attention to or develop the script, in his eyes, Sun Honglei is very suitable for starring in action movies with police and bandit themes or nouveau riche bosses in urban themes, Because police and bandit action movies are more troublesome to shoot in China, Qiu Qingyi finally chose to develop the latter's script, and then developed the urban love light comedy "Gentleman's Makeover".

"Gentleman's Makeover" tells the story of Zheng Yaozu, a nouveau riche who came to Shanghai from the Northeast, fell in love at first sight with the female star Shen Bingbing who attended the dinner at a charity dinner, but he did not win Shen Bingbing's favor with his rustic appearance and no connotation, but touched a nose of ash, at this time, Lin Qihan, who ran a public relations company dismally, broke into her life, Zheng Yaozu asked for Lin Qihan to give him a big makeover, let him talk like a gentleman, dress like a gentleman, and behave like a gentleman, once he really becomes a real gentleman, He can pursue Shen Bingbing, once he wins Shen Bingbing's heart, Lin Qihan can also get what he wants, and get the public relations case of Zheng Yaozu's company, Lin Qihan actually hates Zheng Yaozu's nouveau riche style, but she has to agree to the request for the sake of the company's operation, but in the process of transforming Zheng Yaozu, she is gradually attracted by the turtle in her eyes.

Like "People in Embarrassment", "Gentleman's Makeover" does not have any deep intentions, the purpose is just to win the audience to smile, in terms of subject matter, a shrewd love story of a cute and honest turtle nouveau riche is very attractive to the audience, as for whether Sun Honglei can change the inherent tough guy image and play such a joyful role, Lin Yuquan is not worried at all, Sun Honglei's performance in "Nightclub" is highly praised by Ning Hao.

The subject matter can be filmed, and there is no problem with the overall story, this is Lin Yuquan's judgment after reading the outline of the script, and the details need to wait until you read the script to make a decision.

"The Piano of Steel" is Zhang Meng's film about the old industrial base in Northeast China, in the eighties and nineties of the last century, after the reform of state-owned enterprises in the Northeast industrial towns as the background, tells the story of Chen Guilin, a laid-off worker in a steel plant, who organized a wedding and funeral band after being laid off. to make ends meet. When he and his daughter-in-law were about to end their marriage with their ex-wife. The custody of his daughter became the only controversy, in the face of his daughter's words "who buys me a piano, I will follow whom", in order to win his daughter, he raised money to buy a piano, and after taking the risk of stealing the piano at school After all kinds of failures, with the help of his partners, he used the abandoned steel of the factory to cast a "steel piano" full of father's love for his daughter.

Just like Zhang Meng's previous work "Blessed with Big Ears", this is a realistic film full of warmth and humanistic care in humor. The difference is that the revised "Piano of Steel" is obviously on a higher level in connotation, with the shell of a commercial film and the core of a literary film.

How so? Although it is not perfect, but overall, Lin Yuquan is satisfied with "The Piano of Steel", but there is a big difference from "Du Lala's Promotion", "People in Embarrassment", and "Gentleman's Makeover". The overall film is actually a bland movie, because such a style means that it is difficult for "Piano of Steel" to bring more ideal economic returns in today's market structure.

But if you stand in the perspective of a director. From the perspective of a person who is regarded by countless people as a leading figure in today's Chinese films, then "The Piano of Steel" should definitely be filmed, because the overall level of domestic films at this stage is really bad enough, and "The Piano of Steel" has the potential to become a good movie, so that movies that are both realistic and can tell the story well should not be buried.

As for the return on investment, well, in fact, Lin Yuquan is a very emotional person, as long as he thinks it is worth it, and the price is within his affordability, he doesn't mind investing, and "The Piano of Steel" is obviously such a movie, no matter how high its investment is, it can't be high, if the movie is made well, according to the operation of "Days and Nights in Tin Shui Wai" and "Lichun", even if there is a loss, it will not be much, and Shuguang Film has won the copyright of a good movie and praise from the audience.

Not to mention whether it is improved or not, there are four movies that will be filmed next year, which is undoubtedly a very happy thing, but Lin Yuquan frowned, because none of these four movies are suitable for Yifei to star, Du Lala and Rose in "Du Lala's Promotion" are not good, the female characters in "People in Embarrassment" not only have few roles but are also not suitable, can Yifei play the role of Li Chenggang's junior Manni, how can it work, Lin Qihan and Shen Bingbing in "Gentleman's Makeover" are also not good, "The Piano of Steel" The heroine Shuxian in the film doesn't need to be too young and beautiful, such a result is not a good thing, and the important purpose of his coming to Shuguang Movie today is to choose suitable works for the second daughter.

"In addition to these four movies that have been confirmed for shooting, are there any good scripts?" Lin Yuquan looked at Qiu Qingyi and asked.

"Not for the time being, good movie scripts are so rare." Qiu Qingyi said with a wry smile, in fact, there is no shortage of movie scripts for Shuguang Films, what is lacking is good movie scripts, and a large number of scripts are sent in, but dozens, hundreds, often not a good one, or even a middle one, the screenwriters' retarded minds and the monotony and boredom of imagination make people feel deeply shocked and desperate.

"That's right, this is indeed a very serious problem, we lack both good directors and good actors, but what we lack even more is good scripts, good movie scripts." Ding Wei said with a headache, the lack of good movie scripts has become a dawn movie, has become a problem for the entire domestic film industry, a book is hard to find is the lack of good movie scripts, because many good screenwriters either become directors, or turn to the creation of TV series, or abandon literature and business, or even simply stay away from creation, so that there are only dozens of screenwriters who create film scripts full-time in China, which is completely unable to meet the production needs of hundreds of films in China, which then leads to the overall decline in the quality of films, old-fashioned stories, The plot is shocking and full of mistakes and omissions.

Lin Yuquan suddenly felt a big headache, how could he not know the scarcity of good scripts in China, he has been distressed by this more than once in the past two years, and his level of impetuousness is low, this is the current phenomenon that is common in the domestic film screenwriting industry, there are almost a handful of excellent full-time film screenwriters who can withstand loneliness and boil the script, Liu Huan, Lu Wei, Li Qiao, Wang Shuo, Yan Geling, Liu Zhenyun, and then, almost gone, in contrast, the TV drama industry is much more prosperous, with a group of including Lan Xiaolong, Du Liang, Haiyan, Wang Liping, Shi Kang, Gao Mantang, Zou Jingzhi, and other top TV drama screenwriters, but they are only relative, and in the face of the demand for hundreds of TV dramas every year, there are still very few good screenwriters.

"What do you think should be done to solve this problem?" Lin Yuquan looked at everyone.

"It's very difficult, although the lack of good scripts has a lot to do with the impetuousness of social atmosphere and the scarcity of full-time film screenwriters, but the root cause is the lack of creativity and the rigidity of thinking, even if we increase the remuneration of screenwriters or hold script competitions, it is still difficult to solve the problem." Ding Zhidao.

"It's really difficult to solve, but anyway, there is always hope for trying, and there is no hope if you don't try, in addition, I suggest further expanding the company's screenwriter creation team, the level of a single screenwriter is not good, we will make up for it in a team way, develop more scripts ourselves, Hollywood spends hundreds of millions of dollars on script development every year, and we are far from enough in this regard. In addition to the screenwriting team, we should also learn from Hollywood, improve the script development system, and bring in our own script analysts, script doctors, and project development managers. Qiu Qingyi said.

Lin Yuquan nodded, with a satisfied look in his eyes, he was troubled by the script again and again, which made it unbearable for him to be unbearable, and he had the heart to solve this problem once and for all: "Is there anything else?" ”

"Boss, I have a suggestion, maybe we can try it." Xiao Ran said.

"What proposal?" Lin Yuquan immediately looked at Xiao Ran.

"That's the case, today's online literature is becoming more and more prosperous, every day, there are a large number of novels, a large number of stories are created on the Internet, we all know that the existing screenwriters often have serious problems in terms of imagination, but online literature is extremely imaginative, although so far there is no film and television drama adapted from online novels in the real sense of popularity, but it is undeniable that online literature is definitely a rich source of content in the film and television industry, we used to mainly lock the content of the script on the publication of novels, Now may be the time to expand the layout of online literature, and it just so happens that our game business has been launched, and the fantasy and fairy tale genres in online literature are just right for adapting games. Xiao Ran smiled.

Lin Yuquan's face also showed a smile, in the past, he also paid attention to online literature, but at that time, online literature had not yet become too large, and it was useless for his own creative works, so he didn't pay attention to it, but now it is different from the past, with the development of online literature itself, coupled with the expansion and growth of Shuguang Film in recent years and his layout in the publishing and game industries, as Xiao Ran said, it is time to vigorously deploy online literature.
