Chapter 0495 Heaven and Earth Are Unkind
After dealing with the trouble on Wang Xianzhi's side, Han Lan went to the company's screenwriting department.
Wang Xianzhi's string puppet show is not the main project of Tomahawk Entertainment at present, and the two main lines of Tomahawk Entertainment are actually kung fu movies and Xianxia films.
This is currently the most likely to become the main force of Tomahawk Entertainment's external export.
Even Ankeco's 500 million award-winning literary films can't be compared.
The kung fu film Huo Yuanjia series has begun to transition to the Chen Zhen series, and it is currently going very well.
However, the project of Xianxia film has been in a state of stagnation, and only now has a little news come out - the first version of the script has come out!
Han Lan took over a thick stack of scripts from the person in charge, and they also made a simple cover for it, with two traditional Chinese characters on it: ่ช ไป!
Obviously, this is a script created by the screenwriting team of Tomahawk Entertainment in accordance with the outline and requirements given by Han Lan, rather than an acquisition of the current hot adaptation.
There is a fairy tale in this world and it is also very classic, called "Long Hate Heaven", but the film and television copyright is in the hands of Huaqi Entertainment.
Although Huaqi Entertainment was severely injured some time ago, it seems that it has not completely let go of the figure that once led the Chinese entertainment industry, as can be seen from the name of their company, they have always called themselves Huayu. The Huaguo entertainment industry is referred to as Huayu, and Huaqi Entertainment is also referred to as Huayu.
Huayu stubbornly grabbed the copyright of this and refused to let it go, and Tomahawk Entertainment couldn't buy it after a long time of coercion and lure.
Of course, there are also rumors that Huayu intends to keep it for itself.
Fortunately, Tomahawk Entertainment has two preparations, if you can't buy it, you can't buy it, and it won't be bad to write one yourself.
Especially Han Lan, but she is very confident in this work, after all, it has also been tested by the market, if it is adapted into a movie, as long as the production team is online, it will definitely be popular!
And there is also him, the leading actor of China's No. 1 traffic Xiao Xianrou, and his popularity will definitely not be lower than that "Long Hate Sky".
In this era of fighting traffic, Tomahawk Entertainment has never coaxed anyone!
It's just that writing it yourself is really tiring.
Han Lan sat down on a folding chair nearby, carefully flipping through the script handed in by the screenwriting team.
Han Lan didn't choose to give priority to restoring the original work, more than one million words, that's too much trouble, wait until the movie is finished and have extra manpower before considering launching it.
The current script is only part of the opening chapter of Zhu Xian, with two climax points, one in the Seven Veins Huiwu, and the other in Kongsang Mountain. After all, the screenwriting team has not read the original book, and has tried their best to create it according to the outline and requirements proposed by Han Lan, but the final script is obviously not very satisfactory to Han Lan.
"Han Shuai?" The person in charge of the screenwriting frowned when he saw Han Lan, and also asked nervously.
"Well, let's change it again. The Xianxia world I want should be grander, your pattern can be a little bigger, and there shouldn't be too many plots of love and flirting. Then some fairy mountains and palaces can also be a little bolder, we have a black magic dragon special effects team, don't be afraid that you can't do that kind of effect. The most important thing is that the fairy spirit and chivalrous spirit are written for me! Understand? Han Lan looked at the head of the screenwriting and his team.
Several people looked at each other and nodded.
Han Lan encouraged again: "You can radiate your imagination more, don't be affected by the so-called Xianxia romance films on the market, remember the most important sentence in the play: Heaven and earth are not kind, and all things are used as dogs!" This is called Xianxia! Romance and love are secondary. โ
"Understood!"
There are actually Xianxia movies in this world, and many of them are also adapted from the same name, starring the current popular Xiao Xianrou.
But as Han Lan said, too much attention is paid to romance and flirting.
As a result, the screenwriting team of Tomahawk Entertainment is not exempt from vulgarity, and it is inevitable that it will be affected when creating scripts.
In fact, it is understandable that they focus on the plot of falling in love and flirting, after all, the fans of the starring actors are mainly female fans, and women are the main market. Most girls still prefer to watch some sweet plots instead of fighting and killing. Even if you fight and kill, it can't be too bloody, idols must be handsome!
And Han Lan, he is more of a male fan.

The first version of the script has come out, and the follow-up revisions and revisions will be finalized soon.
Han Lan almost started looking for Zhao Chengwen.
Zhao Chengwen also took this stinky boy, and not long after he poached his closed disciples, he came to him again.
However, Zhao Chengwen didn't drive him away, he had already promised him about the movie before, and it just so happened that there was no movie to shoot at hand now, so let's take a look first.
Han Lan came with the first version of the script, although it is still very imperfect, but the general world view and plot direction can already be seen.
"Zhu Xian?" Before Zhao Chengwen opened the script, he looked up at Han Lan after looking at the two big characters on the cover: "You made it up yourself?" โ
Han Lan smiled and nodded.
"Han Lan, do you know why the current costume films are all adaptations? Not only to gain popularity, but more importantly, these hits have been tested by the market. And if it is a purely original script, it is difficult to guarantee that it will be welcomed by the market after it comes out. Zhao Chengwen taught.
Han Lan also understood what he was referring to, and smiled awkwardly.
You can't tell him that the original work of this script has also been tested by the market, right?
Zhao Chengwen shook his head, he was already half disappointed, but he still insisted on opening the script and reading it.
The more I look at it, the more I realize that it seems to be written a little interesting.
After all, he is the best costume drama director in China, has directed court dramas, and has also directed this kind of Xianxia film, and he can still see the quality of the script.
It's very much in line with the current mainstream!
If it is filmed according to this script, it should still be very popular with the market.
Zhao Chengwen couldn't help but cast an approving glance at Han Lan, and then listened to Han Lan smiled very shyly: "Director Zhao, you will just take a look, don't laugh at our company's screenwriter, I know that there are too many plots in it that talk about love and flirtation, and they have already been revised, if you are willing to take this drama in the future, you can see the second version." โ
"What?"
Zhao Chengwen was shocked, the most attractive thing in this play is to talk about love, flirt and scold!
"You stinky boy is just mad at me, aren't you? How did you change the selling point? Zhao Chengwen scolded.
"Director Zhao, I want to make a magnificent Xianxia film, the pattern hopes to be bigger, love is just a concoction, and even if it is love, I hope to be able to love a little more generously." Han Lan explained that it is naturally impossible to say that his fans are mainly male fans.
Zhao Chengwen listened to his explanation and didn't dwell on this topic anymore, he already knew that this stinky boy's ideas were always different from the mainstream.
The magnificent world of Xianxia?
