"Why?" Jon Landau looked at our Boss Jia in surprise, he didn't understand why Boss Jia had to film the plot of the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

"Mr. Landau, what kind of movie do you think is the easiest to win at the box office in the world of movies!" Boss Jia suddenly asked.

"Naturally, it is a movie that can attract the audience and then arouse the empathy of the audience!" Jon Landau pondered for a moment before saying.

"Mr. Landau, I am so lucky to have the help of someone like you!" Boss Jia couldn't help but sigh, "That's right, I think so too." ”

"So do you think that as soon as we opened, we directly showed all the audience a huge empire, a boss battle of eighteen princes, and then decided a war of an era, such a start, can the audience really immerse themselves and empathize?" Boss Jia asked with a smile.

Jon Landau stopped talking.

"No, it will never be like this, the audience will only feel confused, they will not understand what kind of country this Han Empire is, they will not understand what is happening in this country, and they will not know what these eighteen princes do."

"They may see a magnificent scene of a super ancient war torn apart by hundreds of thousands of people. But so what? They didn't understand what was going on at all, they didn't know why these people were fighting, even if it was an exciting classic picture like Sanying vs. Lu Bu, for them, it was just three people fighting one, what was there to be excited about? ”

Boss Jia's series of questions made Jon Landau completely stupid, and he didn't know how to answer Boss Jia's questions.

In fact, for Huaxia, there is no problem for Jon Landau to ask Dong Zhuo to shoot directly from the princes of the Eighteenth Road, because Huaxia people are already very familiar with the history of the Three Kingdoms, and they don't need any movies to help them popularize the movies of the Three Kingdoms.

For Chinese audiences, what they want to see is actually the magnificent war scene, seeing the exciting scene of the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu, so not only is it nothing to ask Dong Zhuo from the princes of the Eighteenth Road to shoot, but it is no problem to shoot Chibi directly.

But if this movie wants to be released globally, it will be problematic, because the global audience doesn't know what the three kingdoms were divided into in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and they directly saw these plots at a loss, and they didn't know what they were talking about.

What's more, they have no sense of substitution at all, after all, it is impossible for you to expect a foreigner to be directly brought into the history of China.

There are just too many examples of such failed films.

The most famous is Lao Mouzi's hero and the Great Wall, although these two movies are about Chinese stories, but they are stories that Chinese people are confused to watch.

Not to mention that the protagonist of the Great Wall is a foreigner, the protagonist of the hero is a person who has never heard of it at all in history, and the story itself is thin and particularly exaggerated, which completely pulls the crotch.

"When writing a new story and movie, the best way is to start with the characters, start with a small person, and slowly show and describe the story and background of the whole era!" Boss Jia said with a smile.

"In fact, the ancients have long figured this out according to us, when Luo Guanzhong wrote the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, didn't he start writing it from the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang?"

"Through the Taoyuan Three Knots between them, the prelude to the entire Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period was slowly opened!"

"This gives us the best model, at the beginning of our movie, we should also focus on the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang, especially on Liu Bei!" Colorful Chinese

"So I think that the movie at the beginning should show Liu Bei's daily life during his poverty! The time is not too long, it is controlled to about five minutes, and Liu Bei lives in poverty and makes a living by selling straw sandals, but he has great ambitions and strategies, and is always eager to save the world and save the country, save the world, and put benevolence and righteousness first! ”

"At the same time, it should also reflect the rural life of the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, where the natural scenery, architectural features, and character clothing of the late Eastern Han Dynasty can be displayed in a way that is completely different from the West, and strive to catch the audience's attention through these things."

"We want to use these 5 minutes to let all the audience first enter the era of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty!"

"After that, we can make the Yellow Turban forces appear."

"We can design a plot to let the Yellow Turbans attack Liu Bei's village, a large number of villagers and landlords died tragically in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, they also want to coerce the villagers to attack the state city, and finally Liu Bei appeared as a savior, on the one hand, he used powerful Chinese kung fu to defeat these Yellow Turban Army, and on the other hand, he led the villagers to fight, using strategy and tactics to defeat this group of Yellow Turban bandits."

"As a result, Liu Bei hated the Yellow Turban Army, so he set up his ambition to annihilate the Yellow Turban, help the world, and return the world to a peaceful place, so he went to the county seat, intending to join the army!"

"This is the first part of the whole movie, the time is controlled at about 30 minutes, you can design the specific details yourself, but the most important thing is to create a perfect Liu Bei who meets the values of benevolence and righteousness!" Boss Jia talked about it and stunned Jon Landau on the side.

It's not that Boss Jia said it badly, but Boss Jia said it too thoroughly, and directly analyzed the plot of a movie, directly and explicitly, telling Jon Landau how to design a perfect movie opening as if it were a public announcement.

"And what's next?" Jon Landau couldn't help but ask.

"Next is one of the biggest climaxes of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the Taoyuan Three Rebellions!" Boss Jia smiled: "But here, we can make certain modifications to the plot inside!" ”

"Inside, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei met each other after seeing the recruitment notice, then talked freely, and finally worshiped directly as brothers!"

"There is no problem with such a plot in it, but it is not very brilliant in the movie, and it is difficult to play the role of climax at the same time."

"So here we can make a modification, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did meet at the city gate, but they had a misunderstanding. You have to make up this misunderstanding yourself, anyway, it is reasonable to make it up, and in the end, the three of them are very unpleasant, each of them does not like each other, and there is also a certain battle scene, and you have to find a way to show the force of the three of them. ”

"At this time, the Yellow Turban Army came to attack the county seat, this Zhang Fei is a big family, his home is outside the city, and he has become the target of the Yellow Turban Army, and the Yellow Turban Army killed Zhang Fei's relatives, so Zhang Fei decided to lead his family and the Yellow Turban to fight to the death!"

"In the process of fighting, although Zhang Fei was brave and invincible, he was outnumbered after all, and he saw that his whole family was about to die in the hands of the Yellow Turban Army, but at the critical moment, Guan Yu and Liu Bei, who had solved the misunderstanding, killed them single-handedly, so the three of them fought side by side!"

"A very gorgeous and bloody battle scene can be designed here, such as 500 Yellow Turban soldiers fighting Liu Guanzhang and the three brothers, but in the end, the three brothers worked together to kill all 500 Yellow Turban soldiers with 3 enemies and 500 enemies, and they were not injured, and they achieved a hearty victory, and at the same time their prestige was shocked!"

And this tragic battle also made Zhang Fei and Guan Yu understand that if the Yellow Turban Army was not exterminated, there would be no peace in the whole world, so they worshiped Liu Bei as the eldest brother, and the three of them worshiped incense in the peach blossom garden and set up a case, and married Jin Lan in front of the gods, and since then they have become three brothers who share life and death and are famous all over the world, and then Zhang Fei took out all his family property and family, recruited troops, and trained a force of 500 people!"

"This plot should be filmed carefully, and it is important to reflect the brutality of the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Fei's wealth and force, Guan Yu's character and force, and Liu Bei's wisdom and benevolence, to further shape the characters of these three protagonists."

"Don't be stingy with time, you can give about 60 minutes to show, this is the key moment to shape the character, it must be perfectly shaped, and the audience will love and empathize with it!"
