Chapter 31: The Communicator of Culture (Ask for Recommendations!!) )
"You really wrote the ending as a tragedy."
The skeleton sat angrily on the long table in the hall and looked at Qiao Xiu, who was busy editing work.
The Skeleton Man should have been angry that those despicable humans had stepped into his territory, but when he finished watching the full sample of Beauty and the Devil, two small soul fires overflowed from the eyeless skull's eye sockets as tears, and then he was slightly sentimental for a while.
It's just that the skeleton didn't feel sad for long, and he remembered that the screenwriter of this movie was next to him! So the skeleton man hurriedly ran over to send the blade to Qiao Xiu on the spot.
"If you are not satisfied, Lord Duke, you can write this script yourself to make it a perfect ending."
Qiao Xiu was holding a charcoal pen in his hand and was sketching the shape of a sphere, and replied to the skeleton without raising his head.
"Your Highness, you think I can change the ending?"
The Skeleton Prince's not very friendly tone, as if as long as he had Qiao Xiu's permission, he really planned to forcibly change the ending.
"I mean, you can write a story that you want to be based on this story template, and it doesn't matter who you want."
The kind of creation that Qiao Xiu refers to is called an adaptation on Earth, and a lesser one is called a fan.
The movies of "Beauty and the Beast" that later generations watched were basically adaptations of the originals, whether they were Disney or French versions, all of them were called movie adaptations rather than the originals, and the same was true for Qiao Xiu.
Qiao Xiu did not object to the adaptation of Beauty and the Beast by people in this world, and even encouraged them to adapt it.
Because there are many adaptations, this story will be widely circulated...
And Josieu has only one requirement for these adaptors, and that is to add the original author to the work: Jean-Marie le Plantence Beaumont, Madame Beaumont is the original author of "Beauty and the Beast", a French female writer.
This is also Qiao Xiu's request for himself, Qiao Xiu never intended to take these works for himself in another world, after all, Qiao Xiu came to this world to spread the culture of the earth, not to plagiarize the culture of the earth in this world.
To be a qualified cultural communicator, this is the most basic requirement.
"I'm not there to the point where I'm humiliating."
The Skeleton Gong thought about it for a while but gave up on this idea, he really didn't have any creative cells.
"Then Lord Duke, take the liberty of asking... Can you tell me your full name? ”
Qiao Xiu stopped the paintbrush in his hand, since he signed the contract with the Skeleton Father, Qiao Xiu only knew the name of the Skeleton Father, but he did not know the surname of the Skeleton Father.
"Your Highness, what's the point of asking this?"
"Because I'm going to tell the audience who gave the soundtrack to the film."
Joshua blacked out a piece of paper long enough, and wrote the final cast list on the paper with white paint, the first in first place was, of course, the original author of Beauty and the Beast, Madame Beaumont, and the second was Ino who starred in Belle, Zenas who played the prince, including the names of which ghosts who could move furniture Joshua recorded them one by one, including several cameo villagers and Ciri Leudell.
"The surname doesn't matter, Your Highness, you just need to write down my name, and I'll be satisfied enough."
The Skeleton Gong seemed to be particularly repulsive to his surname, but since it was the request of the Skeleton Gong himself, Qiao Xiu only wrote the Skeleton Father's name in the end, with the soundtrack Xiu Ronica.
The last series is all Qiao Xiu's name, director, planning, script, props provision, scenes, shots, editing, etc.
After spending so much effort to make a movie, Qiao Xiu is certainly not polite at all to promote himself.
When Qiao Xiu finished the production of the ending credits, all that remained was the production of the opening credits.
The opening of the film is nothing more than showing the LOGO of a certain studio, Qiao Xiu pondered carefully for a while, and finally drew a logo of the earth on the white paper, and wrote 'produced by the Earth Studios' in Chinese and English under the earth.
Although it looks a little stupid, this constantly rotating blue planet is the LOGO that Qiao Xiu will use in the future, after all, these movies, novels and games are all from the earth.
The effect of rotation was made by Qiao Xiu in the simplest way of flipping the comic book, and Qiao Xiu still didn't know how to enter the picture into the program he had written.
"Done."
After Qiao Xiu finished the production of the opening and ending credits, he recorded them into the original crystal, announcing the successful production of the final product of "Beauty and the Devil".
"Your Excellency, this is a memento for you."
Qiao Xiu took out an empty original spar and made a copy and handed it to the Skeleton Gong.
In total, more than a hundred Primordial Crystals were used for this film shoot, and after learning the white magic taught by Ciri, Qiao Xiu was able to reuse these Primordial Crystals, so it didn't actually consume much.
"Is Your Highness going to the human world to screen this movie next?"
The skeleton man took the primordial spar handed over by Qiao Xiu, he had already heard about Qiao Xiu's ambition, Qiao Xiu would not just stop at letting one or two hundred people watch this movie, Qiao Xiu's ambition was the whole world!
"The first stop, of course, is Nolan, the capital of magic." Qiao Xiu said.
However, Qiao Xiu has not yet decided on the location of the screening, and when the time comes, he will go to Xili to inquire, and Xili is more familiar with the human world than Qiao Xiu.
At this time, a ghost suddenly floated to Qiao Xiu's side, he was the butler of the Skeleton Gong, who played the role of a teacup in the movie.
The butler dropped a badge on the table next to Qiao Xiu's hand and vanished.
Qiao Xiu picked up the badge, and the mark engraved on it was exquisite, like a bouquet of flowers, and the badge also contained a magic that words could not explain.
As for the badge, it seems to be a period of age on the surface, and there are many signs of wear and tear on it.
"This is ......"
"Something a long time ago, it doesn't work for me anymore, Your Highness, you can take this badge and ask for help from a human with the surname Darke, if I'm not mistaken, this clan should be in the theater business now." The skeleton said.
"I see."
This badge of the Skeleton Gong undoubtedly opened a new door for Qiao Xiu, but Qiao Xiu didn't ask much, the Skeleton Gong was so disgusted with his surname, there must be a past that he didn't want to mention.
"Then I'll say goodbye for the time being, the next time the Duke comes to visit, I must invite you to a certain theater to perform, and here is the score I have put together."
Qiao Xiu picked up the things on the table and pushed a thick sheet of music to the Skeleton Gong, which recorded some of the works of the great musicians on the earth.
"Show... I don't expect such an almost impossible thing to happen, it's just that Your Highness... If you make the next movie, you have to give it to me beforehand. ”
As if he had found some treasure, the skeleton man carefully put away the score that Qiao Xiu gave him, and then said to Qiao Xiu.
Are you addicted to watching movies? This form of entertainment is indeed too new for the inhabitants of this world.
"Of course."
After Qiao Xiu agreed to this request, he carried his suitcase all the way to the gate of the Duke's castle.
Ciri had been waiting outside the castle for a long time.
"You're about to go back to the human world, are you excited?"
Qiao Xiu walked down the stairs to Ciri's side and asked.
"Back to the human world? Wait a minute... Leave this alone, hurry up and have another game of table tennis with me! ”
Ciri sent an application to Qiao Xiu for a match, and since the filming of the movie ended, Ciri and Qiao Xiu have been engaged in a ping-pong duel, of course, the final result is to be defeated by Qiao Xiu's miserable record of ten consecutive wins.
This completely aroused Ciri's competitive spirit.
"Can you wait until you get in the carriage?"
"Okay."
Qiao Xiu originally thought that the gameplay of this small game was not high, and it was not even a playing time for Qiao Xiu, after all, Qiao Xiu had already played a little aesthetically tired of various 3A masterpieces on the earth.
But video games are essentially fun for players, and Ping Pong brings great fun to Ciri, no matter how simple the game is.
Ciri immediately ran into the carriage that Zenas was driving, and then patted the seat next to him and motioned for Josiu to hurry up and sit down.
“……”
Qiao Xiu can already meet what will become of Ciri when the Internet era really comes.
And Qiao Xiu felt that this era was not far away, after all, Qiao Xiu had already kicked the door of this era in an extremely rough way.
