Chapter 442: Shadow Puppets on the Set
The first season of the "Slam Dunk" animation has ended at the end of April.
In the last episode of the first season, when the bad boy knelt down in front of his most respected coach and said the phrase "Coach, I want to play basketball", the moment the Chinese version of "Fly - To Our Star Sea" and the Japanese version of "Until the End of the World" appeared in a grand manner, I don't know how many viewers burst into tears.
It was from this volume of comics that ended at the same time that "Slam Dunk" completely exploded!
In the first week of May, the "Tianyu Boy" comic magazine sold 4.2 million copies in two weeks!
The eighth volume of "Slam Dunk" published in April has sold more than 3 million copies, of which 1.9 million are in China and 1.2 million are overseas...... In Japan alone, 600,000 copies were sold!
Who wouldn't be surprised by this achievement?
In the past two months, there have been many companies that have contacted the editorial department of "Tianyu Boys" and wanted to win various adaptation rights such as slam dunk games, movies, and TV series, and then found Di Xia and Sun Ya along the vine, but no one was able to succeed. Because all the copyrights are in Sun Peng's hands alone, he doesn't want anyone if he doesn't nod.
So......
"Brother-in-law, don't be funny!"
Shaking his head, Sun Peng said with a smile: "The style of slam dunk is only suitable for comics and animation, if it is really made into a TV series, it will be a death!" I'm absolutely sure of that, so don't bother with it, I'm not going to authorize anyone to adapt it! ”
Are there any basketball-related movies or TV series that are well made?
Sun Peng's memory is also about "Coach Carter" and "Road to Glory" filmed by the Americans, as for the other ...... "Air Slam Dunk" count?
“……”
Regarding his brother-in-law's refusal, Zhao Jinxiang could only reply with a gloomy look.
"Ahem, don't worry!"
Sun Peng secretly snickered, blinked, and said, "I know that your company is no longer an empty shell, and I really need a new drama to do it, so ...... Do you know Liu Muyan? ”
"You know, old drama bones!"
Nodding, Zhao Jinxiang said with some puzzlement.
"At the end of last year, I asked him for a play."
After the only groan, Sun Peng said with a smile: "A play of the ancient detective Di Renjie, I want him to play Di Renjie, and then let Ye Xing ...... Hmm, it's the martial arts kid I trained to play the second male lead, filming a detective + martial arts TV series "Detective Di Renjie", are you interested? ”
"Oh? Are you writing the script yourself? ”
Zhao Jinxiang's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked.
"Of course, I wrote it all myself!"
Nodding, Sun Peng smiled with a natural smile: "But brother-in-law, if nothing else, "Detective Di Renjie" may be my last TV series script, you must prepare well, if you do it well, this thing should also be able to make a series......"
……
After three days of rest, the crew of "Dragon Gate Inn" regrouped.
There is no longer a need for war horses and jockeys to leave the country, and the sixteen martial arts masters have already taken the money and gone home, and the rest are all literary dramas in the inn and martial arts in a small area, so in addition to the crew members, only the main actors and some small role actors invited by Wei Xiaolin remained.
The leader has changed from Sun Peng to Wei Xiaolin.
The three leading actors He Qingfang, Kobayashi Jiahui and Ni Yueer have also become the center of gravity, the innkeeper, thousands of households and several stalls, including all kinds of characters have appeared, and those dialogues with a strong atmosphere of rivers and lakes have become the focus of everyone's attention every day - only when the filming really starts and the actors begin to immerse themselves in it can they find that the charm of language will be so amazing!
As a learner, Sun Peng also indulged in learning from Wei Xiaolin's experience.
The more you do it, the more you realize how layman you are.
In fact, if it weren't for the director's refresher course in the first half of the year, if Sun Peng had made up for the necessary theories required by the director, he would probably not have learned much even if he studied with Wei Xiaolin. But now while watching how the director does it, and then understanding it against theoretical knowledge, Sun Peng has grown up step by step.
Such an opportunity is extremely rare.
How many of the students in the directing department of the film school are able to learn to make a film with a real director all the way? Even if they had the opportunity, who would be able to make the screenwriter of this movie? And can you still watch every shot and even every frame of the film in your mind at any time?
In this world, I'm afraid only Sun Peng can do it.
You must know that Wei Xiaolin is a mature film director, although he has not shot movies independently, but he has worked with several large crews He is experienced, and he is young and passionate, and new ideas may be born every moment. Every time at this time, Sun Peng would tell the scene in his mind, and then discuss and even quarrel with Wei Xiaolin!
Most of the time, it was Wei Xiaolin who finally compromised.
This is the most incredible thing for Wei Xiaolin, because every time he happily thinks of a new idea, he thinks that he can make this movie more perfect, or he is faintly excited that when he finally thinks of the idea that can overshadow Sun Peng, the other party will always silently take out a piece of paper to draw the most intuitive picture, telling him that you think too much, I am the master of this movie......
This situation even extends to the performance of the directing actors.
Wei Xiaolin thought that he was a real costume film director and should have more say in the performance of the actors, but it took him two months before he understood Sun Peng's sentence - "Dragon Gate Inn" is not the kind of costume film in his heart, but a martial arts film!
Everyone's personality should be closely related to this theme.
So when Zhou Huai'an and Qiu Moyan were in the faint words, people felt the emotions flowing between them; When Jin Jiaoyu shows people her loneliness and loneliness in the debauched laughter and playful meat words; When the oldest stall head and Qianhu use language and attitude changes to make people understand what officialdom in martial arts is......
Including Ni Yue'er, everyone understood this!
"Hehe, I was wrong."
When he talked to his agent in private, Wei Xiaolin's face was bitter: "And it's a big mistake!" I thought that with my experience and ability, I would be able to steer the direction of this film and turn it into an opportunity and a successful resume for me, but now it seems ...... I thought that old white teacher was too simple! ”
After a pause when he said this, Wei Xiaolin continued with a wry smile after taking a deep breath: "It turns out that I don't really understand martial arts at all, and I don't understand this movie, so even if it looks like I'm leading the shooting, but in fact, I'm just a shadow puppet in Lao Bai's hands, dancing with his hands on the set......"
