Chapter 287: Journey to the West? Apotheosize? Still is

Whether the special program "Straight to the Spring Festival Gala" is because of Wen Yi's planning and participation, or because of the gimmick of gathering those already popular elective program contestants to be re-selected, this show is popular anyway.

Wen Yi is one of the judges, but she is not a fixed judge, but attends as a special guest judge, so she does not have to participate in every recording.

Although this show is a cooperation between Jiayi Company and CCTV, Wenyi's appearance fee still has to be released.

Wen Yi's appearance fee is naturally very high, even if it is the friendship price charged, it is still very high. Of course, Wen Yi doesn't have to record every scene, it's not that the program team can't afford to give him an appearance fee, but that Wen Yi himself is unwilling.

And this show is so popular that it directly makes the Spring Festival Gala, which has not yet arrived, highly anticipated by everyone. Especially for Wen Yi's show, it has been speculated by countless people.

Of course, most of the guesses are based on the singing of the songs. It's just that there is some controversy about whether the performance song is a new song or an old song.

In other words, the expectations of many fans of Wenyi are different. Some people want to hear Wen Yi perform their favorite old songs, and some people want to hear Wen Yi's new songs!

However, Wen Yi hadn't considered this issue at all at this time. The conversation he had with Liu Qinghua when he was recording the show before made him very interested in what he was talking about.

Western magic movies, whether it is the earth in the previous life or this world, have countless classics, and there are countless box office hits. What impressed Wen Yi the most was undoubtedly the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

But what about the magic movies of the East?

Although the ghost movie is said to have some side with the magic movie. And there are so many classics, but after all, compared with real magic movies, they seem a little childish and petty. Moreover, unlike Western fantasy films, which are very popular in the East. This kind of ghost movie in the East, people in the West don't watch it at all.

Tsui Hark in the previous life, Xu Ke in this world, wanted to create a magic movie that belonged to the Orientals, and they both adapted and filmed "Shushan Swordsman" by the owner of Huanzhu Mansion twice, but they lost money and made money. It scared the investors.

This kind of movie. It has directly become a taboo in China. Whoever touches it dies! It's worse than touching science fiction movies, and even worse than touching cartoons!

But Wen Yi didn't think about it that much now. He makes movies, and if he is really interested, he will shoot them. For losing money to make money. Won't be considered at all.

Maybe Wen Yi likes to shoot things that others don't dare to shoot!

How much money did Wen Yi make. He didn't know. Contentment. Just spend it if you have money.

And Wen Yi doesn't have high requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation, etc., and his life has nothing to do with luxury. It can even be said to be very simple.

He has no ambitions and doesn't want to make much money on the family business. There seems to be a sense of detachment. Maybe it's because I didn't have a sense of belonging before, but now it's a habit.

He took it all as a dream. I just want to make this dream more beautiful.

As for what he got in his dreams, he didn't really want to have it.

I get it, and I don't feel lucky. Don't feel sad when you lose!

In other words, what he got now is too easy, so that he is not afraid of losing it at all and cherishes it.

Wen Yi has debuted so far, too smooth!

Therefore, Wen Yi plans to touch this taboo film of Chinese movies again! Nowadays, he seems to be interested in difficult movies because of the plug-in of his past life memory.

If there is difficulty, there will be challenges, and if there are challenges, there will be interest!

Perhaps, interest is to find one's own existence in the midst of constant challenges.

Western magic, Eastern fantasy. And the films in Wen Yi's memory in the previous life are only two of Director Xu. The previous "Shushan Swordsman" lost money and made a lot of money, and the latter "Shushan" directly accompanied the pants.

Wen Yi naturally wouldn't look for death to make these two films, not to mention that he didn't like these two films himself. In addition, Xu Dadao in this world has adapted and filmed this novel, Wen Yi doesn't want to pick up people's teeth.

As far as fantasy novels are concerned, "Shushan Swordsman" may be regarded as a classic of the originator of the mountain. But compared with the fantasy novels that appeared on the Internet later, the scene setting and other aspects are undoubtedly weak.

The best is naturally to adapt the fantasy novel on the Internet in the past life.

And the fantasy novels on the Internet in the previous life, or Xianxia novels, are undoubtedly the most anticipated by book fans to be put on the screen!

Wen Yi has naturally read the novel "Zhu Xian", but it's a pity that he reads online novels, like most people, not to mention ten lines at a glance, a few lines at a glance can still be done. I looked at it like a horse, and I forgot about it after a handful of addiction.

At this time, he also remembered that the protagonist's name was Zhang Xiaofan! I also remember that the love in this book is extremely classic. As for the plot, the classic dialogues, the characters and whatever, it's so vague that there is almost no memory! Adapting this novel, Wen Yi can't grasp it.

So instead of adapting this film, it's better to make up one yourself.

However, if it is really made up by yourself, then it must be accepted by the audience and have a sense of substitution, so whether it is the characters, stories, etc., or others, at least one is familiar to them.

In this world, online novels are still developed, and Wen Yi also took the opportunity to find a few very popular novels to take a cursory look, but he didn't find what he was looking for.

"The most familiar mythological story for the public?" Liu Yan, Yang Jun's girlfriend and Wen Yi's current assistant, was stunned at first when she heard Wen Yi's question, and asked with some doubts. However, seeing Wen Yi nodding, he was not joking with himself, and then said, "It should be "Journey to the West" and "Fengshen Bang", and "Journey to the East", which tells the story of the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, these have all been made into TV series and cartoons. ”

Filming "Journey to the West"?

Wen Yi thought about it, but still shook his head. "Journey to the West" is a well-known story in China, both on the earth and in this world, and there are several versions of the TV series. But when it was made into a movie, it could not show the essence of this masterpiece.

Whether it was "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" in his previous life, or "Journey to the West", it was not what Wen Yi wanted. As for "Yueguang Treasure Box", it is even more not what Wen Yi wants.

What's more, Wen Yi's magical powers such as spells shown in "Journey to the West" are not what Wen Yi wants, because he doesn't think that the magical powers and spells in it can be recognized by Western audiences.

Wen Yi is not afraid of losing money when making movies, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't want to make money and doesn't think about how to make money! And if you want to make money, you can't just make Huaxia's own money. Earning foreigners' money is more fun to make money.

Therefore, Wen Yi will subconsciously consider the Western market when shooting films now!

Moreover, Wen Yi is not confident enough to adapt this crew to a satisfactory degree.

took the liberty of filming "Journey to the West", Wen Yi is not afraid of losing money, but he is afraid of ruining this classic!

As for "Fengshen List", Wen Yi was a little moved.

However, after thinking about it, Wen Yi still shook his head and denied it. The characters in "Fengshen List", those characters who like villains in Wen Yi's heart, especially those in the sect. For those who expounded the teachings, Wen Yi felt hypocritical.

really filmed "Fengshen List", Wen Yi was afraid that he would not be able to control it, and he filmed good and bad good and evil indecently. Even if you really control it, you can't guarantee that a few people will agree.

"I don't know if the boss has read "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"?" Liu Yan saw Wen Yi frowning, and then spoke again.

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas?" When Wen Yi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something.

"In fact, in addition to mythological stories such as "Journey to the West" and "Fengshen Bang", the most familiar to the public should be told in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", such as Kuafu's chasing the sun, Houyi shooting the sun, Jingwei reclamation, and public anger touching Buzhou Mountain, etc.!" Liu Yan looked at Wen Yi, and then said, "In the Classic of Mountains and Seas, some countries are also described, such as the Extravagant Corpse Country, the Qingqiu Country, the Black Tooth Country, etc., if you can clearly set the weird monster races described in it. What dwarves, elves, skeletons, or something in the West, in front of these, it is simply weak! ”

Liu Yan said, he clearly felt that Wen Yi's eyes were getting brighter and brighter. As Wen Yi's assistant, she naturally knows that Wen Yi is thinking about the new film during this time. Moreover, she also knows that Wen Yi seems to be interested in themes like mythological stories such as magic fairies.

Listening to Liu Yan's endless talk, Wen Yi's mind suddenly flashed a novel about these mythical stories.

Wen Yi can't even remember the names of those novels now, but there is one thing in common in those novels. That is to connect the myths and legends of ancient China.

Wen Yi knows what she wants to shoot! And, he's ready to play big, unimaginably big! (To be continued......)
