Chapter 82: What are the flaws in the adaptation of the plot of "Zodiac"?

The next day, the magic capital.

Station B headquarters, general manager's office.

At this time, Xu Zheng sat on the sofa, slightly nervous in his heart. However, after the events of the past few days, Xu Zheng is not as worried as before. With the recognition of Jue and An Xiaoming, he is already confident in the plot adaptation of the current "Zodiac".

The confidence that was frustrated in the freshman year is also beginning to return. Although nervous, I don't doubt myself anymore. And he also has a clue in his heart about the follow-up adaptation, as long as Station B decides to invest, he is confident that he will adapt "Zodiac" well.

Of course, the reason why he was nervous was because sitting next to Yu Wangsheng was Jiang Qingcheng, a well-known director in the animation industry, who was also the one who praised him in the Spring Cup. In the past, he regarded Jiang Qingcheng as an idol because the other party also won the championship in the Spring Cup with a work, and then he had his current achievements.

This kind of person who relies on his own ability to rise to the top and succeed is what Xu Zheng admires the most.

Yu Wangsheng sat aside, but he didn't speak, he was waiting for Jiang Qingcheng to speak. Jiang Qingcheng, as the animation director of Station B and the former champion of the Spring Cup, has now completely gained a foothold in the Chinese animation industry and is a well-known animation director who resounded throughout the country.

Today, the leader of the assessment team took sick leave because he was ill. Originally, Yu Wusheng wanted the deputy team leader to come over to see the plot adapted by Xu Zheng, but he didn't expect Jiang Qingcheng to hear the news and bluntly said that he was interested and wanted to see how Xu Zheng's adaptation of "Zodiac" was. So take the opportunity to come and have a look.

Yu Wangsheng naturally won't save Jiang Qingcheng's face... And Jiang Qingcheng is beyond the reach of the evaluation team leader in directing animation, and the evaluation team is essentially doing market research in the final analysis, they will investigate which animations in the animation industry can be successful to a large extent, which animation ideas are outdated, etc...

But after all, it's just a survey, the market is ever-changing, and no one can say all the factors for the success of an animation. Only when it succeeds, everyone will suddenly realize that this is the case.

Therefore, in the final analysis, the evaluation team only played the role of avoiding disadvantages and seeking benefits. Of course, this is the case, but the existence of an evaluation team is indispensable for every group company.

After a few more minutes, Jiang Qingcheng finally put down the notebook in his hand, exhaled softly, looked at Xu Zheng, and said with amazement in his eyes, "I originally thought that "White Dove Amusement Park" was an adaptation of your inspiration, but now this adaptation of "Zodiac" has changed my opinion. ”

The reason why Jiang Qingcheng came here was really to see what Xu Zheng could adapt "Zodiac" into! But unexpectedly, when he watched it again, he was immersed in it.

For a director, whether it is a film or animation director, they will love it if they can encounter a good book. Because a good plot story can stimulate the director's thinking and inspiration, so that they will have a kind of impatience to direct.

Undoubtedly, Xu Zheng's adaptation of the plot story of "Zodiac" has done it, and only the first three episodes have made his eyes shine. "Zodiac" is a web novel, so the big rhythm naturally follows the way of the novel.

And Xu Zheng used the way of withdrawing from the marriage to carry out an alternative slap in the face. and then use Ji Ruyan to kill his brother to change the more wimpy character of the protagonist of the original work, let the protagonist be reasonably blackened, and then kill Ji Ruyan, the plot of these three episodes is indeed very cool.

Jiang Qingcheng has already finished reading the novel "Zodiac". Why go and see? Because when Station B bought the animation copyright, it found him and asked him to adapt it.

Like Xu Zheng, Jiang Qingcheng is not only a director, but also an animation screenwriter, and he also participated in the Spring Cup in a personal way. Jiang Qingcheng has a great impression of Xu Zheng, who is very similar to himself, and will come over to see it for the first time this time.

And the daily adaptation plan of Xu Zheng's "Zodiac" was proposed by Jiang Qingcheng. Break the audience's inherent concepts, change concepts, and then capture the audience's hearts with the storyline, this is Jiang Qingcheng's adaptation plan.

This is a very safe adaptation plan, and it is also the reason why Station B will take out "Zodiac" as a silver award reward.

Of course, if you don't join Station B, then the adaptation plan of Station B will naturally not tell the winners, they will only let the winners think for themselves. After all, you don't join Station B, so why should we tell you about the adaptation plan?

Station B once thought that Xu Zheng would give up "Zodiac", but now it seems that Xu Zheng has found another direction for adaptation.

And in Jiang Qingcheng's opinion, Xu Zheng's way of killing his sister is simply eye-catching. And the character of the protagonist of "Zodiac" is particularly painful, but Xu Zheng uses the death of his younger brother to change the protagonist's personality, but it is reasonable.

Yu Wusheng next to him was shocked, he didn't expect Jiang Qingcheng to praise Xu Zheng's adaptation of "Zodiac" so much. He didn't watch Xu Zheng's adapted plot, but now he is also curious.

"How did you come up with the idea of such an adaptation?" Jiang Qingcheng was extremely curious, saying that he looked at Yu Wangsheng's eyes with curiosity, handed the notebook to the other party, and then looked at Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng smiled and said truthfully.

"I see." Jiang Qingcheng sighed, "I didn't expect it to be because of the previous murder and corpse mutilation case." But he thinks it makes sense, after all, many stories are adapted from reality, and many of the inspirations come from real life.

Of course, to be able to find inspiration from reality, in Jiang Qingcheng's opinion, Xu Zheng's thinking is indeed very different from ordinary people. Just one case can be associated with the plot adaptation of "Zodiac", which is indeed flexible.

Xu Zheng smiled embarrassedly, and he was praised by his idol and suddenly didn't know what to say.

And at this time, Yu Wusheng had roughly finished reading the plot, and he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Yes, I think of this story with a little enthusiasm." You know, there is still no character dialogue, just a general plot, he just thought about it a little, and he couldn't help but want to watch the next plot.

"The story is wonderful, but it's not without flaws." Jiang Qingcheng saw Xu Zheng hearing this, looked at him curiously, and said with a slight smile, "I won't point it out, this needs you to think for yourself, and it is also a kind of growth for you." ”

After speaking, Jiang Qingcheng said meaningfully, "Sometimes deleting a part of it will be of great benefit to the storyline." And it makes the story more compact. ”

Xu Zheng was inexplicably familiar with these words, and suddenly he recalled that An Xiaoming had said something similar to him at the beginning. Xu Zheng beat the drum in his heart... But he thought about it, but he couldn't figure out what went wrong...

"It's a good book. However, the procedure that should be followed still has to be followed. Yu Wusheng said with a smile at this time, "When Lao Zhang of the evaluation team recovers, let the team evaluate it, and then the B station will set up the project, and the investment will be made." In the past two days, you think about how much it will cost to make "Zodiac", and station B will give you an answer at that time. ”

"Okay!" Xu Zheng's eyes were happy, he didn't expect the negotiation to be so smooth.

It's just that although he was happy, Xu Zheng didn't forget what Jiang Qingcheng said, he felt that he should think about the story itself.

As the first TV animation directed, Xu Zheng naturally wanted to be as perfect as possible.
