Chapter 7: Screenwriter?

After staying at home for three days, Li Xuechu went out of the house refreshed. In the past three days, in addition to eating, sleeping, and occasionally reading the newspaper, the only thing Li Xuechu did was to revise the manuscript and write the new chapter he had just opened.

With the first experience and the ready-made story, the new chapter was written quickly. When Xu Fei came four days later, he would be surprised to see that there was a new story in addition to the ghost in the house, right? Hehehe

In writing, the advantages of crossing are at a glance. This novel adapted from a Hollywood comedy hangover filmed in 2oo9 has no sense of disobedience in 198o Xiangjiang, replacing the plot about mobile phones with phone contact, Las Vegas with Omen, and some old American laughs that look funny and Chinese people look at them without feeling are eliminated, and the lewd Asians in the original work are replaced by ghosts.

Since the beginning of Hollywood, the Chinese or all yellow people in Hollywood movies have basically played negative roles in them, either gangsters, or clowns with obscene images, and then some vulnerable groups who are submissive and waiting for heroes to rescue.

Even Li Lianjie and Ge, who are already famous in China, can only find some villains to play when they enter Hollywood in the 9o, and they are all villains of **, gangster or clown, who are crushed by white heroes.

This situation did not begin to change until almost 2oo5 years later, after all, the Asian market, especially the domestic market, is becoming more and more difficult to ignore, and he can't too arouse the disgust of the Chinese people if he asks for money. In the later life before Li Xuechu's crossing, the so-called "Chinese elements" in Hollywood appeared more and more frequently in major films, temples, Chinese kung fu, and gods, and sometimes some Chinese movie stars would be pulled in to make cameos or something.

However, these "Chinese elements" are relatively neutral, basically do not involve culture and values, and have little relevance or conflict with the main plot of the movie, which is similar to advertising placement.

Li Xuechu wandered around the streets and alleys of Xiangjiang, going to the radio channel to see if there were any familiar celebrity faces, and most of the celebrities who are now popular don't know each other. Brother has become a household name in Xiangjiang with the broadcast of Shanghai Tang in the first half of the year, and it is estimated that he has now begun to try to show it on the big screen, but if he remembers correctly, it seems that he has been a frustrated person for a long time, hanging the sign of "box office **" and working hard, until he starred in the true character of the hero in 86 years before he began to turn over and become a movie superstar in Xiangjiang.

There is also Sister Zhi, who also became popular with the role of Feng Chengcheng, but Li Xuechu was more impressed by the popular "The Legend of the New White Lady" more than ten years later, this divine drama set off a ratings frenzy as soon as it was released, and the ratings have been prosperous for a long time, and together with Journey to the West, it has become a must-broadcast drama during the annual holiday, and the White Lady played by Sister Zhi has also become the best model of the traditional type of good wife and good mother. Until not long before Li Xuechu's crossing, it was still rebroadcast on local satellite TV stations from time to time. It is estimated that in addition to Journey to the West, he has the most replays.

What Li Xuechu expected was that the Volkswagen ** in the nineties debuted in seventy-three years. Then there is Zhen Shaoqiu, Qiu Guan is a well-known evergreen in the Chinese circle, debuted in the sixties, and has been popular from the seventies and eighties to after the new century, and only a few years before Li Xuechu crossed slowly disappeared, and became popular for nearly half a century.

It's a pity that none of these people have met, but even if they do, they are embarrassed to come forward and talk to each other almost asking for an autograph or something, and it is estimated that people are busy at this time, which is like their own idle eggs hurting around the world.

No. 77 Broadcasting Road is the wireless building, this year is an important year in the history of wireless, the former chairman of the board of directors Li Xiaohe died of illness two months ago, and the chairman of the board of directors took over the position of 73-year-old Shao Yifu, which is a pivotal figure in the Chinese film and television industry.

Shao Yifu and his family members began to get involved in the film and television industry as early as 1924, with the change of the times, from Shanghai to Nanyang, and then from Nanyang to Xiangjiang, the theaters belong to Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, and its Shaw Brothers and now Wireless have almost supported half of the Chinese film and television in half a century, and have become popular even in later generations are still familiar film and television superstars, and almost half of the big-name stars in Xiangjiang and even Taiwan have stayed in Wireless or Shaw Brothers.

Another thing that people talk about is Shao Yifu's longevity. At the age of 73, many people began to speculate who the next chairman of Wireless would be, some said it was the descendants of the Li family or the Shao family, and some said it was other shareholders. But Li Xuechu knew that if anyone was coveting this position, he was afraid that he would have to wait for the liver and intestines to be broken, Shao Laoliu stayed in the position of the head of wireless for thirty-one years, and did not retire until 2o11, when he was 1o4 years old, and died peacefully at the beginning of the year when Li Xuechu crossed over, at the age of 1o7.

Li Xuechu is deeply interested in wireless, the cradle of Xiangjiang superstars, especially the famous wireless artist training class, not to be a star, but to see what this training class is like that of producing film and television stars every year like an assembly line. However, Li Xuechu, a member of the training class in the 80s, seems to know only Huang Rihua and Miao Qiaowei, like Andy Lau , Liang Chaowei , Zhou Xingxing , Wu Zhenyu , these big names who will become popular all over Hong Kong and the Chinese world will not debut in a year or two.

I shook around in front of the wireless building, and finally I was embarrassed to go in, for fear of being kicked out. After all, the thin-skinned Li Xuechu is not a teenager like he looks, and being scolded by the security guards and driven away is still a shame for adults who are about to stand up.

Next to the wireless is Li's, which was later renamed ATV. The two TV stations stand side by side, and there is quite a bit of a McDonald's KFC fight that has to be face-to-face. However, Li's head seems to be pressed wirelessly from beginning to end, and occasionally one or two punches, most of the time she only hugs her head and gets beaten.

Li Xuechu is more interested in film and television screenwriters, and the novels he writes now and plans to write in the future are basically adapted from film and television dramas. It's not bad if you can directly turn it into a movie and TV series, after all, I've already watched the original drama, and if the classics of the previous life are made into bad movies, it's also very uncomfortable to watch, and it's more cost-effective even in terms of economic accounts, movies are a profiteering industry now and in the future, and the closer you get to this industry, the more benefits you get.

Being a director is a technical job, and I haven't even seen a movie before, at least in the short term, it won't work, and the screenwriter is much less difficult, as long as you have a good idea, the writing requirements are lower than that of a novel, and it's concise and clear.

It's a pity that whether it's wireless or beautiful, it's basically self-produced and sold, unless you go into it to be a screenwriter or write a novel that is popular in Xiangjiang and let them come to the door to negotiate and compile a script and arrange TV, if you simply deliver the script, basically no one cares, even if you are fancy to shoot it, the remuneration you get is very little, and it is not as much money as writing your own novels.

The Xiangjiang film and television industry has always paid little attention to screenwriters, and screenwriters have relatively low personal income and industry status. This situation leads to the fact that there is no talent in the screenwriting industry, so he will either simply change his career to become a director, write and shoot by himself, or leave the film industry directly.

The same is true of the hinterland of later generations. This is also a major root cause of the lack of themes in the Chinese film and television industry, which has always been stuck in the quagmire of plagiarism and can't pull it out, and has been criticized for a long time. is obviously short of screenwriter talents, but he disdains screenwriter talents, and would rather plagiarize, and the director's works are getting worse and worse.

Therefore, a more feasible way is to open a film company by yourself in the future, invest and write scripts by yourself and ask the director to shoot a movie. After all, only I have seen the original work, which is very convenient for shooting, and what is lacking is professional knowledge.

The 80s was still an era of reckless heroes, and the entry threshold was still relatively low at this time, and after the new century, talents who were not from professional colleges basically didn't even think about it. But it's complicated to do this, so I'll leave it for later, I can only think about it now.

The environment of this area is good, and it belongs to a noble residential area in Xiangjiang Broadcasting Road, that is, it is a place where the middle and upper class gather, and there are more entertainment and leisure places nearby, and the public security is also good.

"Maybe it's good for me to move here in the future," Li Xuechu thought.
