"Murder on the Orient Express" is less than 150,000 words in total, and it was serialized a lot in order to attract readers at first, so it ended after more than 20 days of serialization, but the day of the ending set off a lot of waves.

At the same time, it also picked up the "Summit Newspaper".

The murderer of "Murder on the Orient Express", the truth of this case is too unbelievable and unimaginable.

As a famous book critic said.

"Murder on the Orient Express" and "Sherlock Holmes" have their own merits, I can't say who is better-looking, but I like the writing of "Murder on the Orient Express" more, all the evidence is spread out, the reader and the detective know the same, this is like the detective and the reader in the book are in a competition, to see who guesses the murderer first, this kind of writing I enjoy very much, so I started a battle of wits with the detective in the play.

Sherlock Holmes I can't win, but I want to win this detective Poirot created by Su Shichen once, I almost read the evidence listed in "Murder on the Orient Express" ten times, I can already be very proud to say that I have successfully guessed who the murderer is before Detective Poirot in the book, and at that time I was still a little complacent, I felt that this case was like this, I originally thought that I had thought about the truth of the case complicated enough, but when I finished reading "Murder on the Orient Express", I knew that I was wrong, It's very wrong, the truth of zuihou turned out to be like this!!

The rest of the detective novels often use people's blind spots to arrange one or two accomplices to create some unimaginable murders, although this idea is good, but it is completely weak compared to the idea that our genius writer Su Shichen thought. A serious spoiler, if you haven't seen the ending and have seen this article, I will mourn for you. But I still have to say that I don't vomit and am unhappy. There are twelve murderers in "Murder on the Orient Express"!

Yes, you read that right, there are twelve people, and the whole carriage except for the dead and the detective are murderers!!

Oh, my God!

What a crazy reversal, the murderer turned out to be as many as twelve people, the deceased was a cruel kidnapper before his death, because the law could not punish him, so these twelve people proclaimed themselves for the jury to announce his death sentence! ”

Another comment -

"The twelve knives at the beginning named the twelve murderers at the end. The sins committed by the deceased during his lifetime can be said to be deserved, and Zuihou Poirot said, "Since the answer has been given to you, please allow me to announce my withdrawal from the Honjo case with great honor." 'An intriguing quote. , After watching the ending of "Murder on the Orient Express", I realized that I wanted to compare my IQ with that genius writer Su Shichen! "Murder on the Orient Express" is very exciting, and I hope Su Shichen will write more such wonderful mystery novels. Instead of putting the cart before the horse to draw comics. ”

…………

Comments from the outside are in full swing. Su Shichen and Zhang Chen's painting "Slam Dunk" is also in full swing.

"Xiao Chen, someone is looking for you, hurry up and don't rub it off." Su Shichen, who was engrossed in the drawing in the room, was interrupted by the voice of his mother Wei Xin.

Looking for me? Who is it?

Generally speaking, there are only two people who will come to his house to look for him, one is his best friend Ma Jun, and the other is the squad leader Li Dongfang. If it was Ma Jun, he would come in directly, as casually as if it were his own home.

And if it was Li Dongfang, his mother Wei Xin would call it like this: Xiao Chen, Wei Xin [Li Dongfang is still the squad leader] came to play with you.

But this time it was not called like this, and a sentence was added: Hurry up and stop grinding, it's even more strange. Who the hell is looking for him?

"Huh? When did I like to think like that? Just go out and see who the hell is. Su Shichen found that his personality had changed a lot, and if he was reborn, he would never have thought so much about it in his head.

That is, he has become a thinker. Becoming stable, is this a good thing or a bad thing? I heard a certain scientist say that thinking too much will accelerate the death of brain cells, so that you will die faster.

There are a lot of people, let them think about it is better to let them die. In fact, many people die before they even think about it. -- Su Shichen agrees with Bertrand. Russell's words, and there are many popular people, according to his current situation, every step he takes should be carefully considered.

When he came to the living room, he was approached by a man in his forties, wearing a heavy cashmere trench coat and a baseball cap, looking a little out of place.

Su Shichen met this person for the first time, but he knew him, the ghost director Xu Xin, at first he was famous for making martial arts TV series, and then his first movie won the Golden Horse Award for Best Film, the shooting style is very weird, and he is a real madman, he dared to fight with the long-famous director when he was a newcomer, although Zuihou lost but also lost gloriously. And this Xu Xin is also a workaholic, and he is much crazier than Yu Qiyuan in filming, which is also something that the entertainment industry knows.

There should be no intersection between himself and this ghost director, is it because of that incident that he will come to the door?

"Hello screenwriter Su, I'm Xu Xin." Xu Xin introduced himself.

"Director Xu Xin is a long-established ghost director in the industry, and he has been famous for a long time, so he naturally knows him." Su Shichen got straight to the point: "I don't know what Director Xu Xin is looking for me for?" ”

"I won't hide it anymore, I'll just say it bluntly," Xu Xindao "After the success of Director Yu's "Journey to the West", CCTV has been preparing for the remake of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but Director Yu announced that he would have to choose a new director after taking a break for half a year, and the director of this remake of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is me. ”

In other words, CCTV is really energetic, although the ghost director Xu Xin started out of making TV series, he hasn't made TV series for a long time, although there is no accurate classification in the entertainment industry, but the grade of movie stars has always been higher than that of TV series stars, and the director is naturally the same. Xu Xin is already thriving as a film director, is it a step backwards to make a TV series again?

However, this impossible situation was brutally handled by CCTV, and there is also a little bit of "Journey to the West" in front of Zhuyu, if it can't be exceeded, it will be considered a failure. But it is very difficult to exceed the record of breaking four and breaking seven in the first day of ratings, and this difficulty is no less than the pressure of the movie box office exceeding 500 million.

This is a heavy pressure, and the highlight of directing CCTV is very good. But this pressure has discouraged many directors.

In fact, Yu Qiyuan can't be blamed for this matter, but the script written by Su Shichen.

Before "Journey to the West" was released, directors in these industries ridiculed and said that Yu Qiyuan actually hired a child to be a screenwriter, but when "Journey to the West" achieved ungodly results, the directors in these industries all said sourly, didn't they just hire a good screenwriter and write a good script?

This turning point before and after is not insignificant, so this is not a ghost director Xu Xin came to the door.

"The script of "Journey to the West" is very good, and it has extended a lot of interesting plots without destroying the plot of the original book too much. I came this time to ask screenwriter Su to be the screenwriter of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". ”

Sure enough, it is no different from what Su Shichen thought, generally speaking, directors are waiting for actors to audition, especially big-name directors like Xu Xin. But this time it was the opposite, Xu Xin came to Yangcheng from the capital at his own expense to ask Su Shichen to be the screenwriter, who has ever had this kind of treatment?

Although his face was calm, to be honest, Su Shichen's heart was quite dark now.

"When will the filming of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" start?" Su Shichen asked.

"Just for a month or two."

"I'm sorry, Director Xu Xin. I really can't spare time for the last month or two. Su Shichen said apologetically.

"Can't spare time?"

"Director Xu Xin, you may not know yet. I'm serializing my new mystery novel "Murder on the Orient Express" in Summit Newspaper, and I'm also working on a new book "Ghost Blows the Lamp", and I'm planning to release a cartoon about basketball in a month or two, "Slam Dunk", so I really can't spare time. ”

"People say that I, Xu Xin, am a workaholic, but I think you are a real workaholic compared to you, serializing mystery novels in newspapers and magazines, preparing new books, and publishing comics, all of which require full dedication. But screenwriter Su, you did these three things at the same time, which is really efficient. It's no wonder that more than 60 episodes of scripts can be written in a month. ”

Xu Xin thinks that the title of workaholic in the entertainment industry should be given to Su Shichen, how many people will be scared to death if Su Shichen's work efficiency is said? Of course, Xu Xin still doesn't know Su Shichen's other identity, if you add another Tian'en identity, this kind of work efficiency is really scary!!

"It's a pity, I believe that if screenwriter Su can join, this remake of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" will definitely be more certain."

"I'm sorry, but I really don't have time on top of the schedule." In fact, even if there is time, Su Shichen will find other reasons to refuse, he is not a person in the entertainment industry after all, he is a man who wants to become a great writer, not a man who wants to become a superstar.

This kind of direct refusal without a valid reason is a taboo on top of interpersonal communication, so the invitation to Xu Xin is also a smooth sail.

Xu Xin has some regrets, the screenwriter of the remake of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" really can't find any suitable candidates except Su Shichen.

But Su Shichen's words changed: "Although I don't have time to cooperate with Director Xu Xin, I have some suggestions about this shooting, Director Xu Xin can listen to it." ”

"What advice?" Yu Qiyuan accepted Su Shichen's suggestion to expose the flood as the main purpose of filming, which is known in the industry, so Xu Xin is very much looking forward to Su Shichen's suggestion.

"Before I say what I suggest, I want to ask Director Xu Xin about the theme of this remake of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and how you plan to behave."

Xu Xin was silent for a long time, and sorted out his language before saying, "There is no protagonist in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", but there are all kinds of heroes, such as the martial saint Guan Yu, the wise and demonic Zhuge Wuhou, the hero Cao Cao, etc., which is a success point of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". ”

paused, "There are also heroic deeds in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", such as Taoyuan Three Knots, Weizhen Xiaoyaojin, Hundred Cavalry Robbing Cao Ying, passing five levels and killing six generals, etc., these heroic deeds in the Three Kingdoms make readers yearn for it, so the main purpose of the remake of the Three Kingdoms is to highlight the heroes of the Three Kingdoms and the deeds of the heroes, I don't know what Su screenwriter thinks, after all, I am not a professional screenwriter, and I am still a little strange in this regard. ”

Xu Xin is called a ghost director, this title is really not covered, whether you are writing a book or making a movie, you must know one thing, that is, what the audience and readers like to watch, only what you shoot and write, the audience and readers like to watch, so that it will be successful. Of course, not everyone is Wong Kar-wai, who dared to say to the audience at the premiere, "You can't understand art films", of course, the consequences of saying this are also very serious, and the box office is also seriously hitting.

And Xu Xin's analysis of the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is very in place, weishenme people like "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" more than "Three Kingdoms"? weishenme: Do people prefer to watch the kind of wild history that is not very realistic?

The reason is that although "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has a high degree of authenticity, its watchability is not as high as that of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", and ordinary people are not history majors, and they don't rely on this aspect to mix and eat, so why do you want authenticity?

Visibility is the first choice! The question is, why is "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" so watchable, in fact, Xu Xin has already said the reason just now, because these heroes and their deeds in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", people aspire to become heroes, but they often can't become heroes in real society, so they need to watch movies and TV YY, for example, the popularity of the five tiger generals in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is very high, but in fact, there is no record in "Three Kingdoms".

But people just like to be called such a dramatic name, Admiral Five Tigers! What a mighty title, so it can be said that Xu Xin's shooting point is right.

"I have some premature suggestions about the theme of the shooting......" (to be continued......

PS: ps: Yesterday I saw a reader say that he wanted to buy "Murder on the Orient Express" after reading this book, and then today the kitten sent the ending to the show, wow haha, is the kitten a little broken?
