Chapter 42 The Dilemma of Erlang's Origin Movie
In fact, Lin Xin's anger was just a joke. Although he felt that this book "The End of Life and the Water of the East" was a bit tear-jerking, it was actually not bad at all in terms of the plot.
Although this story is different from what people are used to and familiar with, if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is still reasonable.
He read a lot of literature for the sake of performance.
Where can I read online novels comfortably? Almost all of them are classical Chinese and quaint words.
There are records in "Erlang Bao Scroll", "The Heart Sutra of Benefiting the People and the Earth", "Journey to the West", "The Romance of the Gods", and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". There are countless stories, repertoire, and folk legends.
The iconic third heavenly eye on his forehead made him unique, and the source can be traced back to the ancient Shu king Cancong, which is the result of the belief in "Chongmu".
"Although the story happened after Chenxiang saved his mother, the content of this Fuxi water mirror is very complete, and it seems that it should cover Yang Jian's life."
Lin Xin vaguely felt that he had found a treasure!
Among the many gods and demon mailboxes created by myths and legends, Erlang Shen is impressive.
Although this character has not appeared many times, he is arrogant, capable, and has a strong personality that is enough to leave a deep impression on people.
In fact, the image of Erlang Shen Yang Jian was not achieved overnight in "Journey to the West" or "The Romance of the Gods", but was accumulated from generation to generation, just like Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie, and was finally frozen by the famous work "Journey to the West"!
The novel "Journey to the West" is the final shape of the story of Journey to the West. As an important figure among them, Erlang Shen's image is also fixed at this moment.
Whether it is personal appearance, family, friends, teachers and other social relationships, the supernatural powers and magic powers have been described in more complete and detailed.
Nowadays, people's main impression of Erlang Shen comes from "Journey to the West", and the rest of the works and legends can only be supplemented.
However, when making a movie, I will definitely not directly film Erlang Shen’s scenes in Journey to the West. That will be another linkage after the collection of gods and immortals!
Lin Xin wanted to film the origin story of Erlang Shen, which is exactly the part that is lacking in folk legends, historical documents, operas, and novels. The screenwriters need to complete it themselves.
Nezha has the advantage in this regard, and has been described for at least three years and six months of pregnancy, and just need to change the background slightly.
Just like superhero movies, they are by no means shooting comic stories directly intact, and they all need to be appropriately modified for the big screen.
"The screenwriters should be allowed to read Qin Chuan's novel, which should be inspiring!"
Lin Xin looked at the time on his phone. It was only ten o'clock in the evening.
That group of editors must have stayed up late to work and definitely not sleep yet.
So he recommended in the work group: "Editor Xu, if you are still confused about Yang Jian's story, just take a look at the "Huayue.com's "Eternal Sorrow in Life" which tells the story of Yang Jian's learning from his apprenticeship when he was a child."
After saying that, no one paid attention to him at all.
Lin Xin could only get up silently and start doing simple fitness exercises in the living room.
Although Erlang Shen is a handsome boy in literary image, he must make the character masculine enough and convey a trustworthy message to the audience.
Basically, the muscles will not be exposed, but the tall and upright posture must be, otherwise it will not look grand enough.
...
In the office building of Lieyan Film and Television, only a few houses have lights on.
Apart from the footsteps of security guards patrolling on each floor, the whole building was silent.
This is the norm for film and television workers.
Staying up late, working overtime, and all night is no longer a surprise, but it has become Asiatic time.
"Come on, keep changing, the director and the producer are still not satisfied."
A middle-aged man pulled his hair and smashed the printed script on the desktop with a "splash".
Another screenwriter took out a cigarette, lit it with a lighter and started to smoke hard.
I can't remember how many tenth edition of the script this is, and each version of the script has been adapted significantly.
Now due to the script, the entire crew cannot start, and the money lost and the time wasted!
"Old Xu, what kind of script do you want from the directors? Those who handed it over always said that they couldn't make any requests or opinions, but they couldn't say it."
Xu Xiuxian, Jiang Bin and Zeng Guang are not new screenwriters, but are both senior screenwriters in the industry.
The Golden Bull Award has won many awards and has written similar martial arts and fairy tale scripts.
Otherwise, Lieyan Film would not have hired them to be the screenwriter of Erlang Shen Origin Film, because they believed in their abilities.
The script has been finalized.
However, due to the box office of the mythical universe movie "Nezha's Sea" that was so big that the company's boss and producers have stricter requirements for the subsequent single-player movies and cannot drag down the overall situation.
With the requirement of striving for excellence, scripts will naturally become a weakness.
Instead of waiting for the filming to finish before conducting a second large-scale reshoot, it is better to confirm the script in advance.
Xu Xiuxian and the others have survived many late nights, and their hair falls one by one, and they are under a lot of pressure!
Jiang Bin picked up his phone, glanced at the message in the chat, and said, "Old Xu, please look at the phone. Xiaolin recommended an online novel to us and said that he could read it."
"What else can I read when I'm so angry!" Xu Xiuxian had a slightly irritable temper.
"He said that this novel is about Yang Jian, which contains background descriptions about Yang Jian when he was a child, and may be used for reference." Zeng Guang was really helpless, "Don't underestimate the online articles, some online articles are actually quite good."
It’s good to catch a life-saving straw now, and you can choose anywhere.
After hearing these words, Xu Xiuxian got a step forward.
It is difficult to write the origin story of Yang Jian well. He wants to see how much the author is, and he can actually complete content that he cannot complete by himself and the other three!
"I have a long life and regret for the water to the east? Is this book title related to Yang Jian's half a cent?"
If you want to read the book, should you complain or complain?
Three famous screenwriters in the industry were sitting in the conference room at this time, holding their mobile phones and carefully reading the content of the novel.
Almost none of them went to review those.
The main reason is that I don’t have time, and secondly, I feel that my taste may be different from online readers.
My honey, my arsenic.
The beginning of the novel made the three senior screenwriters unable to help but raise their eyes and look at each other.
"Such Yang Jian!"
"It will fail, it will be sad, and human nature and divine nature are in line!"
"This author is really interesting, with two brushes."
Yang Jian was originally a half-person and half-god, but his life seemed to be smooth sailing. He did not encounter any other setbacks except for his young family being destroyed.
The most taboo thing in making movies is to keep pace with everything, and you have to find some trouble for Yang Jian.
Now Qin Chuan's novel suddenly made them put aside their underestimation and treat it with real equality. I hope they can learn from it some strengths!
Chapter completed!
