The crew of "Celebrating More Than Years", dressing room

Wei Yang held a book in his hand, reading it, while waiting for the makeup artist to put on makeup, Li Jiahang swayed in and sat next to him.

"I just saw a few reporters, it seems to be from CCTV, looking for you?"

"Chong Shi Shi, an interview."

Li Jiahang knew that he could let the people of CCTV run in person, and the entire crew was only a few people such as Wei Yang and Chen Baoguo, and now there is another Liu Shishi.

"What are you looking at?"

Without talking much about this issue, Li Jiahang tilted his head and looked at the cover of the book in Wei Yang's hand.

"The Three Kingdoms... , you want to shoot the Three Kingdoms? ”

Li Jiahang was excited, man, who doesn't have a dream of the Three Kingdoms of Jin Ge Iron Horse, the four famous novels are super IPs, and Wei Yang, the top screenwriter, which insider is not excited when he hears it.

"Don't get excited, I'm just passing the time."

Wei Yang closed the book, but he was not surprised by other people's associations, his identity is too sensitive, no matter what book he reads is discovered, he will immediately open his mind.

Wei Yang posted a photo on Weibo before, which was originally a photo of his daily work, but there was a book of reasoning about him to pass the time in the corner.

Later, it was discovered by Leeuwenhoek's fans, and later directly inherited that he wanted to develop it as a new project, which increased the sales of this book a lot, if it wasn't for Wei Yang's quick clarification, someone would have won the film and television copyright.

This is the appeal of the industry's top screenwriters + adaptors!

In the eyes of the outside world, Wei Yang is a god who has directly leveraged the great development of the entire online literature industry with his own strength.

After dramas such as "Celebrating More Than Years" and "East Palace" became popular, the market value of companies such as Shanda Literature and Jinjiang Literature skyrocketed, the price of online copyright doubled, and the cat greasy and gangster Sicun jumped to the top of the list of rich writers, and even caused Internet giants such as Penguin and Baidu to fall.

According to industry rumors, Penguin recently launched its own online website, and Baidu has confirmed that it will soon acquire Perfect World's Zongheng Chinese Network.

One thing to say, Wei Yang is somewhat "back to the pot" in this matter.

The entertainment industry is developing rapidly, and the giants have long had ideas, even if there is no Wei Yang, the original time and space will have actions in the past few years, but now because of Wei Yang, it is only slightly advanced.

But in any case, the online literature industry has indeed changed a lot because of Wei Yang, and even many people in the industry think so.

A drama has leveraged an industry, and the value of the projects in his hands is often hundreds of millions, Wei Yang is now equivalent to the God of Wealth in the eyes of some people, so everyone can't afford not to pay attention to it.

Ordinary reasoning can make such a big move, Wei Yang wants to say that he wants to shoot the big IP of the Three Kingdoms, I don't know how many calls he has to make.

"Bai was excited, I thought I could get a Zhao Yunyan,"

Li Jiahang was a little disappointed, and Wei Yang laughed angrily: "Playing Zhao Yun? Why don't you say that you want to play Diao Chan, that is, I really filmed the Three Kingdoms, and Yu She. ”

"Yu She, who?"

Li Jiahang was stunned, he hadn't heard of this person, Wei Yang turned a few pages and showed him.

"It's the trick that was hacked to death by Hua Xiong, have you seen "New Three Kingdoms"? It's the fierce general Liu Sandao of our department. ”

Li Jiahang: "......"

However, Li Jiahang is still curious about how Wei Yang looks at the Three Kingdoms, although Wei Yang usually reads miscellaneous books, this kind of "old book" is rare.

"When I was on a plane, I read an online article about the Three Kingdoms, and I thought it was very interesting, and I had some ideas, so I flipped through the book."

"What an idea."

Li Jiahang's eyes lit up, and he asked curiously, Wei Yang glanced at the makeup artist, who was an old man in the company, and he didn't hide it, so he shared it.

The Three Kingdoms he watched before was not a traditional Three Kingdoms online text, but a high-martial one, probably a strategist calling for wind and rain, and a military general with one enemy and a thousand.

The level of writing is actually average, but it reminded Wei Yang of "Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms", and then wondered if it was possible to engage in similar film and television projects.

Facts have proved that domestic classical mythology and history are still very attractive to domestic audiences.

This is also the reason why the themes of Journey to the West and the Three Kingdoms emerge in endlessly, and mythological stories such as the gods have a large market.

But because of this, the copyright is unclear, everyone can shoot, and it is impossible to form its own IP barrier advantage.

So Wei Yang wondered if he could change it.

For example, a high-martial version of the Three Kingdoms forms a unique world background, which is different from the ordinary Three Kingdoms theme, which not only rubs off the IP popularity, but also will not be easily imitated.

This trick is actually not new, there are too many magic changes in the theme of Journey to the West, and each series has its own unique background, but few people in the Three Kingdoms move.

The reason is naturally very simple, the Three Kingdoms is a historical theme, the basic plate is different, and the forcible integration of mythological and high-martial elements will be self-defeating if it is not done well.

When the time comes, fans of the Three Kingdoms will come over happily to watch, and they want to see the legendary story of the Three Kingdoms.

It turned out that Lu Bu mowed the grass and confronted Liu Guanzhang with a big move, Zhuge Liang incarnated as a great magician of the fire system, and his combat power crushed the five good generals, and it was strange not to scold the street if he couldn't accept it.

So Wei Yang is just an idea, let's talk about it casually.

If it is really a project shooting, it is difficult to revise the magic version, the investment is not low, and the market prospect cannot be guaranteed, maybe it will have to overturn.

Wei Yang chatted casually, and didn't take it seriously, there are too many similar situations, which mature screenwriter doesn't have dozens of inspiration ideas, let alone a project, and it can become a script or even an outline.

But Li Jiahang likes this setting: "If this can be filmed, I will definitely watch it, how creative." ”

He also discussed decently, and Wei Yang figured out a lot of settings.

"The Five Tigers will engage in a gold, wood, water, fire, earth + weapon beast setting, Guan Yu Qinglong is wood, Zhang Fei is a snake fire, Zhao Yun is a water white dragon, Huang Zhong is an earth tiger, and Ma Chao is a golden phoenix."

"Shu Han is the gossip of the five elements, Cao Wei has a constellation of the heavens, Dongwu...... Tentative. ”

"Lu Bu has a heavenly demon bloodline, so the world is invincible, and at the same time it is not allowed in the world, is this a bit of a collision with Chen Dadao."

"Fatalism, come to a Han Heavenly Destiny divided into three, the beginning is the Yellow Turban burying Han, the poor road Zhang Jiao, please go to the death of the Han Dynasty."

“……”

Wei Yang is imaginative, he thinks about it one by one, some ideas are quite reliable, and some are pure nonsense, but when it comes to Yellow Turban and Zhang Jiao, he suddenly has some thoughts.

The familiar historical figures of the Three Kingdoms engage in high martial arts, which is easy for the audience to accept and the risk is very high.

But Zhang Jiao is a Taoist priest, and he has a certain mystery, and if he does a certain amount of high-level martial arts promotion, the public's acceptance should be very high.

Is it possible to test the waters on this character as the beginning of the Three Kingdoms?

If the audience has a high degree of acceptance and becomes famous, you can directly use the node of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and then shoot back along the plot.

Besides, even if you don't do any Gaowu Three Kingdoms series, the character of Zhang Jiao is actually quite suitable for making a movie.

Wei Yang recalled his previous life, this character was set in some online texts, and it was a key node in the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, and his popularity was very high.

Whether it is the setting of the Taoist Mandate of Destroying Heaven of the Three Kingdoms of Gaowu, or in terms of its own history.

A person who was born in a small rich family, became a monk, spread all over the world, saved people, spread faith, gathered millions of people, and responded to the world's call, burying the 400-year-old national fortune of the Han Dynasty and opening the curtain of the Three Kingdoms.

The legend of this character is by no means inferior to those of the Three Kingdoms celebrities, and even due to its short length, it is more suitable for film adaptations.

As an excellent screenwriter, when I think of making a movie with Zhang Jiao as the protagonist, combined with some other settings, a general plot line is already clear.

Gao Wu or history doesn't matter, according to the three-stage style of the script, the beginning is the background setting.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court was in power, the people were in many disasters, and the Taoist surnamed Zhang apprenticed to learn art, and then felt that the people's livelihood was hard, the people were poor, and they saved people, and even entered the epidemic area alone.

However, learning the Tao could not save the Han Dynasty, when he realized that the court was corrupt, the scholars were powerful and powerful, and regarded the world and the people as pigs and dogs, Zhang Jiao was determined to change and preach peace.

However, because the traitor betrayed him, he was forced to revolt, and the Yellow Turban was in turmoil, and finally for various reasons, it got a tragic ending.

But although the yellow turban died, the life of the court was not long in coming, and the vitality of the scholars was greatly damaged, and everyone knew that the people who were regarded as pigs and dogs would bite people if they were in a hurry.

The tragic heroic characters who sacrificed for the people + the big IP of the Three Kingdoms, the character arc, the plot context and climax are clear.

Wei Yang really thinks that this project has a head.

What Gaowu Three Kingdoms series, to be honest, there are too many things involved, there are too many things to consider, the future is unclear, Wei Yang is more inclined to talk about it.

But he can still eat this Zhang Jiao's personal movie, and he can afford to pay for it if he hits the street.

Wei Yang is a copyist, he has never shied away from this, and he has never thought of giving up this advantage.

But as a professional screenwriter, from the bottom of his heart, he still wants to make a successful personal original work.

A completely original story, to be honest, Wei Yang is a little weak-hearted, not because he can't write it, but because he is afraid that the quality is not high and the brand will be smashed.

But it's not completely original, Wei Yang is still very confident in the magic reform and optimization under the premise of the original story, after all, he has been doing this all these years, and he has extremely rich experience and excellent ideas.

Wei Yang was so inspired that he even took a two-hour leave to stay in the dressing room and record a lot of ideas about the movie.

The Yellow Turban

Wei Yang wrote down the tentative name of the movie, planning to go back and dig up the information and slowly enrich the script.

This project, Wei Yang didn't say that he was determined to start filming, but the interest is great, but it's hard to say when the project will start, but there is no need to think about it in the short term.

Regardless of whether it is mixed with high-martial elements, if you want to shoot a high-grade Yellow Turban Uprising, the production cost will never be low.

At this stage, Wei Yang is still a newcomer to the film, whether it is starring or producing, his appeal is not enough to support a movie of this size.

So even if the script is written, Wei Yang will have to wait until a relatively suitable time to promote the project.

Wei Yang has high expectations for the project "Yellow Turban", two generations of people, this is his first original film script that is expected to be released in theaters.

No matter how good other projects are, they are all adopted or stolen, which is an authentic son.........
