"The Four Famous Catches" is a work to test the waters, but Wang Qinian is also going all out, and when the film is being prepared, he has sought the support of many technical teams. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It includes not only the traditional special effects team, but also the professional team of IMAX3D systems sent by IMAX. After all, the main selling point of this movie is to experiment with 3D films.

Of course, after Wang Qinian read "The Four Famous Catches" for a few days, he directly felt disliked. On the famous artists of the martial arts era, in fact, Wang Qinian likes Jin Yong's style the most, and almost every Jin Yong work has made him fascinated.

Next,It's Gu Long's work.,Of course, Gu Long's work is to read a part.,The mid-term work "Peerless Double Pride", "Huanhua Washing Sword Record" and other works where the protagonist has a growth process ~ pig ~ pig ~ island ~ novel, I like it the most. In fact, during the period of writing "The Peerless Double Pride", although Gu Long already had his own style, he had not yet escaped the influence of Jin Yong. But there is no doubt that Gu Long's works have a sharp edge that is not found in Jin Yong's novels, especially in these mid-term works, the characters are even more sharp.

In addition, Huang Yi's works, Wang Qinian also thinks they look good. But compared with Jin Yong and Gu Long, Huang Yishu is more than refreshing, and the degree of classics is insufficient.

Wen Rui'an's works, Wang Qinian patiently watched the biography "Blood River Car" of "Shenzhou Wonder Heroes". However, the IP popularity of this work is not enough, and the characters are not as famous as "The Four Famous Catches".

Wang Qinian didn't like to make a movie according to the plot of the original book of "The Four Famous Catches", but also wanted to use the IP of "The Four Famous Catches", so he had to ask Wen Ruian to rewrite the screenplay!

Refining the characters, the plot of the story has little to do with the original novel.

After meeting Ryan Wen. Wang Qinian was not very polite, in fact, with Wang Qinian's current status, there is no need to be polite, so as not to be misunderstood by others, and directly express his point of view. It's easier for people to do things and avoid ambiguity.

Wang Qinian said directly: "The novel "Four Famous Catches", I am dizzy when I read it! The timeline is very messy, there are too many versions, and the plot is messy, not as coherent as the novels of Jin Yong, Gu Long, and Huang Yi. ”

"......" Wen Ruian felt a little embarrassed, saying that he was not as good as Jin Yong and Gu Long, maybe he could accept it, and said that he was not as good as Huang Yi. Still...... Well, he debuted around the same time as Huang Yi, and he was also famous at that time. In the mind of Wang Qinian, the big boss, why is the evaluation not as high as Huang Yi?

In fact, as soon as Wen Ruian debuted, Jin Yong read the martial arts novels that he said he could read in the near future, and Wen Rui'an's. Huang Yi's book, which debuted in the same period of the year, Jin Yong did not say anything.

The reason for this. It's mainly literary style.

Although Wen Rui'an's novels are becoming more and more chaotic, they are becoming more and more obsessed. But at the time, the writing is really amazing.

Writing martial arts is like writing prose, and even ...... Write prose poems.

This is clearly Ryan Wen's attempt to create a unique style of martial arts fiction, but he has failed because he has gone mad!

If Wen Ruian can write the story honestly like Jin Yong or Gu Long. The chronological order and events are clear. Instead of being in a happy mood, these days write a short story about a certain character thrown on newspapers and magazines for serialization. After a few years, I threw a new chapter that has nothing to do with the previous plot and the timeline is very messy.

To put it simply. Wen Rui'an's novel, like writing 375 chapters at the beginning, may be happy tomorrow, but writing 576 chapters, and the day after tomorrow starting to write 124 chapters. A few years after the break, Nyima wrote chapter 577. Of course, the writing of such a work will go crazy, and the reader will also feel sleepy.

Unless you are a die-hard book lover and have straightened out the timeline of different versions of Wen Rui'an's works, you will definitely find it difficult to understand the complex characters and plots.

Compared with other martial arts writers, Wen Rui'an's works are really written like heavenly books!

Is this writing poetry or fiction? Still, sleepwalking!

"Fortunately, I used the character design of "The Four Famous Catches". It is not necessary to write the screenplay according to the original plot, but you can extract the popular characters and rewrite the screenplay! Wang Qinian smiled and said, "The same is true of superhero comics in the United States, in the past few decades, countless versions, the original author of the plot has been messy and can't explain it clearly." But refining some characters and settings, and re-adapting film and television works, is still very exciting! ”

When Wen Ruian heard this, his face was slightly better.

Next, Wang Qinian said to Wen Ruian: "In general, the movie time is very short, and we can't shoot the plot of the entire "Four Famous Catches" at once, so we have to make up a new main line that appears, not in the novel." The characters still use the ruthless, iron-handed, life-chasing, and cold-blooded characters in "The Four Famous Catches"! The name of Zhuge Shenhou, the master of the four famous catches, is also very compelling, which is very suitable for movie adaptation! With these characters, you don't need the story in your original book! ”

Wen Ruian nodded when he heard this, and said, "If you re-write the script, what kind of plot will you make?" ”

"Have you seen a Hollywood superhero blockbuster, those movies based on comics?" Wang Qinian said.

"I've seen a few, like Spider-Man!" Wen Ruian said.

"That's good!" Wang Qinian smiled, "However, I recommend watching "X-Men" and other movies. For example, this new plot can be modeled after "X-Men". Zhuge Wuhou, as the leader of the six doors, drew on Professor X. The protagonists appear in the plot, borrowing from Wolverine, Little Naughty and so on. These righteous masters of the Shenhou Mansion are involved in the conspiracy of the villain general, and fight wits and courage with the villain organization! By the way, the ruthlessness of the crippled legs, I think it may be more selling to change her into her and become a cute crippled little junior sister! ”

Wen Ruian couldn't help but be stunned for a while when he heard this, the amount of information was too much, and it wasn't until Wang Qinian said that he would change ruthlessness to a sister that he "woke up" and said: "Readers who have read the original book may not accept it!" ”

"There aren't many readers of the original book!" Wang Qinian smiled and said, "Compared with the novels of Jin Yong and Gu Long, "The Four Famous Catches" may be famous, but the readers who have really read it are far less than the works of the first two!" ”

In fact, not only compared with Jin Yong and Gu Long, but also compared with Huang Yi, it is also much inferior to Huang Yi. Really, at least in China, pirated books used to be all over the rented bookstores, and Huang Yi's novels are very sought-after. Although many of Wen Rui'an's novels will also be placed on the shelves, the book rental rate is not very high, and the books will appear newer than Huang Yi's books.

It is precisely because of this that the title of "The Four Famous Catches" and some of the characters in it, perhaps, everyone has heard of it. But if you really want to talk about the original book, how many readers have read it? Compared with Jin Yong Gulong's novels, the number of original parties is hardly at the same level.

It is precisely for this reason that the plot of "The Four Famous Catches" is relatively scattered, and there is no clear time clue, and it is written as a very stream-of-consciousness and scattered culture novel. Take the TV series adaptation as an example, each version of "The Four Famous Catches" is almost different. For example, ruthlessness should be crippled, but in some TV series, ruthless walks like flying, can run and fly, and is not in a wheelchair at all. Some are in wheelchairs, and they are relatively handsome. In different versions of the TV series, love comes and goes, and it is also a mess. It's all to blame on Wen Ruian, who didn't name who was a couple with whom, and who was married to whom. No...... Therefore, to give the screenwriter room to play, different versions of TV series appeared, and the male and female protagonists gradually had completely different emotional lines.

As for the film version's subversive ruthless change from male to female, it is expected that there will not be many protesters, but it may arouse the curiosity of some people.

Ruthlessly turned into a girl, which is also a selling point!

In Wang Qinian's memory, the movie version of "The Four Famous Catches" filmed in 2012 was also handled in this way. Although, that version of "The Four Famous Catches" was not ideal, it was not as atmospheric as expected, but the plot was fragmented and incoherent. But I have to say that some of the selling points are really attractive.

Moreover, Chen Jiashang's version of "The Four Famous Catches" has a small-cost martial arts flavor, although some stars are invited, it is estimated that most of the budget is spent on star salaries, so although this series of movies is a blockbuster, Chen Jiashang bears the reputation of a bad movie director.

This can't be helped, on the one hand, Wen Rui'an's novel itself has a hard wound and is full of fog, and in addition, it is even more difficult to express a good plot in the film adaptation. In addition, in addition, the scenes filmed are not too grandiose, and the acting skills are not good, most of the actors are almost sleepwalking in the film, and they don't know what to do at all.

The plot is also relatively vulgar, a taste of martial arts movies and television in the 90s, and the plot is still like dozens of videos stitched together piece by piece, or like a 20-episode TV series that has been edited into more than 100 minutes. Not to mention the special effects, the special effects of "The Four Famous Catches" are also jokingly called "five-cent special effects". The cost is not up, the technology is not too hard, and it naturally looks ugly.

However...... Even if it is so bad, the box office of "The Four Famous Catches" in hundreds of millions is still very amazing. It can be seen that this is a very good IP! If you are bad, you can get an amazing box office, if you shoot a little better, wouldn't it be a box office explosion?

It is precisely in consideration that the "Four Famous Catches" in his memory is hard to hurt, Wang Qinian simply hung the name of "The Four Famous Catches", in essence, it is already imitating Hollywood's commercial blockbusters and making a new story.

The reason why Wen Ruian was asked to write the screenplay was essentially to fight against the original party!

A lot of original parties, it's hard to accept the changes in the plot!

However, Wang Qinian asked the original author to change it, and all the right of interpretation was pushed to the original author. The original author has the highest right to interpret the plot and setting, and what is written is the official setting, and if you are not convinced - what can you do? At most, it's just a fan who writes official and may not be authorized! (To be continued......)
