It rained in Shanghai today, and after a crackling downpour, the world was new.

The temperature is slightly lower, and the air is a little cooler.

At the Jin Jiang Hotel, Li Shengyao sat at a table with his assistant, Chen Hao, and three guests from afar.

These three people are none other than Matsuyama Shigee, Ueda Renobu, and Mitani Yuki, who are from the island nation.

On behalf of Fuji TV, Matsuyama purchased "Stairway to Heaven" and "Full House of Romance" from Fenghua Film and Television Company, and the price was still 200,000 episodes, and he had signed a contract with the relevant person in charge of Fenghua Film and Television Company in Yanjing.

On behalf of NHK, Reshin Ueda purchased the broadcast rights of "Signal" and the remake rights of "Signal" from Fenghua Film and Television Company.

"Signal" is more refined, with 250,000 episodes, while the remake of "Signal" has a copyright fee of 3 million.

The contract has also been signed in Yanjing.

In Li Shengyao's previous life, the film and television production company of the island country remade "Love Hotel" and "Signal", which "Love Hotel" had already been broadcast, but they didn't expect them to take the lead in buying the remake copyright of "Signal".

It is worthy of being an island country, and it can be said that it is the most favorite country in the world for criminal investigation and reasoning.

And Matsuyama and Ueda have signed a contract in Yanjing, and they still came to Shanghai to accompany Mitani Yuki.

This is a big man in the screenwriting industry of the island country, and "Ancient Smoke Ren Saburo" was written by him.

This drama is undoubtedly the most successful criminal investigation drama in the island country.

The top stars of the island country are proud to play the villain in "Ancient Smoke Ren Saburo".

Kimura, Takako Matsu, Nanako Matsushima, Takashi Antimachi and a series of other stars have all acted in the main or special episodes of this series.

Among them, Kimura was also slapped by the male protagonist.

The director said that he felt that Kimura was too smooth, and he couldn't help but want to arrange someone to beat him.

In short, Mitani is a big man in the screenwriter circle of the island country, and the identities of Ueda and Matsuyama are still willing to accompany him to find Li Shengyao.

And the reason why Sangu came to Li Shengyao was to talk to Li Shengyao, after he knew the plot of "Signal", he was deeply inspired and wanted to visit Li Shengyao in person.

Li Shengyao has always been generous to the gold owner, he learned of the intention of Ueda and others, and after the morning shooting, he led his assistant from Hengdian to Hucheng.

It happened that Chen Hao was preparing "Pink Girl" in Shanghai, so he brought her over.

Eat and drink to your heart's content, and run errands at night.

Mitani is a very normal screenwriter image, thin, ordinary-looking, with a pair of glasses, thinning hair, and looks quite bookish.

He knows some simple Chinese, and mainly relies on Matsuyama to translate.

"Director Li, I like your "Signal" very much, I think your story structure broadens the breadth of criminal investigation films, which is a very good direction for criminal investigation films all over the world."

"Mr. Mitani is polite, I just have a little idea."

Sangu then raised a glass of wine, "I will toast you first in the way of the Chinese people." ”

The two of them touched a cup, and Sangu drank it all, and then he said his real goal this time.

"Director Li, I've always wanted to write a special part of the "Ancient Smoke Ren Saburo" series, and I want to make some breakthroughs, but I don't know where the direction is, I saw Ling's "Signal", and I have some feelings, I came to look for you this time, I hope to get your guidance, where do you think the future development direction of criminal investigation films is?"

When Li Shengyao heard this, he paused slightly, and then beckoned Matsuyama Ueda to eat vegetables, and then said, "I have some opinions, is Mr. Mitani willing to listen?"

"Of course, that's my pleasure."

Mitani immediately stood up and bowed deeply.

Li Shengyao smiled, "Criminal investigation films, or reasoning films are the earliest genre films in film and television dramas, and it is indeed difficult to make new ideas until now, I think the future development direction is still to make a fuss about the protagonist's character, and it is necessary to create a more attractive protagonist." ”

There is nothing that can't be said about this, in some previous criminal investigation dramas, the protagonists of mystery films are often some face-painted characters, and directors and screenwriters try to attract the audience with ingenious and suspenseful cases.

But after so many years, almost every case imaginable has been filmed.

At this time, how to shoot new ideas in criminal investigation films, it is natural to work the actor.

In the "Ancient Smoke Ren Saburo" series, the male protagonist's personality is actually a little boring, he is like a robot who reveals the truth.

The film and television industry of the island country is also aware of this problem.

2000's "The Trap" is an anti-genre mystery film, in which the actor and his assistant go to find out the truth about "superpowers" and wipe out those charlatans.

In the same year, "Mutual Favor" was more diversified, and while reasoning and solving cases, it also explored the issue of social system.

This is all an attempt by producers in the film and television industry.

But I still didn't find the point, until 2007, the island country released a "Detective Galileo", the male protagonist of this drama is a university professor, with a somewhat strange personality, straight talk, and a great success in the island country.

This is another attempt by the island country's film and television circle for criminal investigation films.

In fact, the mainland is the same, criminal investigation films are diversified and idolized.

For example, "Crime Illustrated", "Forensic Qin Ming", and "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" are all articles in this regard.

And if you want to say that the most successful in the world, it is naturally "Sherlock Holmes", this British drama directly made Juan Fu the leading actor of Hollywood blockbusters, and his coercion and commercial value showed an incredible promotion.

The Sherlock Holmes case is actually based on Sherlock Holmes, and they have made micro-innovations that relocate the Victorian story to the twenty-first century.

Compared to the boring old Sherlock Holmes.

Sherlock's personality is set to have low emotional intelligence and speak straight.

He also has an invisible emotional scene, younger and better than the old version, and he is even suspected of selling corruption with Watson.

In addition, it is also set that he is from a British aristocratic family, his brother is a high-ranking official of Guo Jia, and his sister is an unborn genius.

If you think about it carefully, isn't this the setting of an idol drama?

Isn't this Sherlock the Daoming Temple that is hundreds of times smarter?

This is the trend of criminal investigation films, idolization and diversification.

When Mitani heard this, he thought of the more popular criminal investigation films in the island country in the past two or three years, and he deeply agreed, and he finally found the direction that he had been thinking about in his mind, but had not thoroughly excavated.

"Director Li, your insight into film and television dramas is really incomparable, not only filmed "Winter Love Song", but also filmed "Signal", which is admirable."

Li Shengyao waved his hand, and then he chatted with Mitani, telling some criminal investigation dramas about the future island country.

At the same time, he also had an idea in his head, and he thought that maybe he could do a big job.

The idea was to learn from Sherlock Holmes, modernize the title, and add an idol character to the main character.
