336, It seems that 'Journey to the West' is going to pounce!
As soon as he heard that the song "Going to Dali" was already available, Yang Jian nodded with peace of mind and asked: "There is another plot. Hao Yi asked those gangsters to sing "Don't Look at Me as a Sheep". This is
A children's song? But I couldn't find it on the Internet..."
The plot mentioned by Yang Jian is a joke. After Geng Hao and Hao Yi came out of the entertainment club, they were retaliated by the "special service girls" and found a group of so-called "social big brothers" to deal with the brothers. At the beginning, Hao Yi and Geng
Hao did not dare to resist and was forced by the other party to sing "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is". However, Hu Shuo modified this when writing the script and changed "Dare to Ask Where the Road Is" to "Conquer".
Last week, Li Ziwei released her latest single, "Conquer", which is currently on the major music charts and is already very popular.
However, Hao Yi later used the crew's "prop gun" to counterattack, and then forced the gangsters to sing. Hu Shuo did not change the song here, because "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" was already in production. According to Hu Xiao
Shen's plan is to release the first season before the Spring Festival. Therefore, Hu Shuo's "Don't Look I'm a Sheep" is also mixed with some "private goods".
"Heart Blossom Road" will be released later than "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", so once "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" becomes popular, there is nothing wrong with using this song. If it is not popular, it will be used for "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf"
》Advertised.
"There is also this song, you can hear it after a while."
Hu Shuo did not explain too much. In fact, whether it was the script of "The Flower of the Heart" or "Strategy of the Ex", Hu Shuo had already localized it when writing it, such as in "The Flower of the Heart"
The Avatar sister was also changed by him into a very famous character in this time and space.
"As long as the song is there."
Yang Jian nodded and asked a few more questions that he didn't quite understand. After that, there were basically no problems on his side.
"Mr. Hu, I mainly focus on the climax of the plot, and I don't quite understand it."
Li Yuqing frowned and said: "In the finale of the script of "The Ex-Raiders", the Supreme Treasure, Zixia and so on were mentioned. I was a little dizzy while watching that paragraph. Judging from the plot, that paragraph should be alluding to a love story.
, but I have never heard of that story. I checked some information on the Internet and couldn’t find it!”
The most tear-jerking part of the drama "The Story of My Ex" and the climax of the entire drama is when the male protagonist Meng Yun puts on a tight hoop, transforms into a Supreme Treasure and comes downstairs to the female protagonist Lin Jia, shouting over and over again, "I
Love you”.
However, the heroine was already disheartened and did not intend to forgive him, so along with the shouts of "I love you", she began to crazily eat the mangoes she was allergic to...
When "The Ex-Raiders" was released in another time and space, it caused a lot of discussion. During the enthusiasm for the movie, this plot was also talked about by netizens. The price of mangoes in some areas even increased.
Therefore, the actor who plays Lin Jia also has an additional label: the woman who eats mangoes and raises the price...
The setting of this plot is foreshadowed by the sentiments of "Journey to the West" before and after. Therefore, if the audience does not know the story of Zhizunbao and Zixia, it will be difficult for them to empathize with it.
Hu Shuo certainly thought about this problem when he wrote the script for "The Ex-Strategy", and he also found a pretty good solution, but he was not sure whether it would work.
"Director Li, this plot echoes the plot in one of my novels. That novel will be online in the next two days. As for whether it will cause a splash, I'm not sure. So, when you shoot
, this scene will be left empty for now. If my novel fails, this plot will be replaced by a well-known classic movie plot."
That's right, the solution Hu Shuo came up with was to first write "Journey to the West" into a novel, a short story of about 100,000 words.
In fact, Hu Shuo had previously thought about filming "Westward Journey" first and then "Strategy of the Predecessor". However, "Westward Journey" is too long. The two parts are equivalent to the size of two movies. And filming "Westward Journey"
》The cost will be very high.
In another time and space, the cost of "Westward Journey" at that time was more than 60 million. Hu Shuo did some calculations and found that if he wanted to shoot "Westward Journey" now, the cost would be at least 400 million.
Firstly, he now has no money to make a movie with such a large investment, and secondly, the risk is indeed too great. After all, "Westward Journey" was a hit in another time and space. It was only after it was released for many years that it slowly became more popular.
It became popular and was regarded as a classic by the audience!
Therefore, Hu Shuo is not sure that "Westward Journey" will be a hit once it is filmed. If it does hit the market, the company's vitality will be seriously damaged.
Therefore, for Hu Shuo at this stage, it is most cost-effective to shoot some low-cost comedies, such as "The Richest Man in Xihong City", "The Flower of the Heart" and "The Story of the Ex". Even if two of the three films hit the street, Hu Shuo still
If he can bear it, even if all three of them are thrown into the street, he still has the strength to fight again.
It is for this reason that Hu Shuo came up with a roundabout tactic of publishing a book first to test the market's reaction, and then decide whether to make "Westward Journey".
As for the novel version of "Journey to the West", Hu Shuo has almost finished writing it, and there is still an ending left.
"That's it, then I understand."
Li Yuqing smiled: "Mr. Hu, you are really talented. Those poems are shocking enough, and you can actually write novels."
"It's just for fun."
Hu Shuo shrugged and asked, "Do you two have any other questions about the script?"
"I don't have any here for now." Yang Jian shook his head.
"Me too." Li Yuqing rubbed his fat face and praised: "However, I would like to say one more thing, Mr. Hu, your script is really awesome. The jokes in it are so funny and not corny at all.
I feel like I’m about to reach the box office peak of my work!”
"You have to complete the assessment standards even if you are flattering~!"
Hu Shuo joked with a smile.
"Mr. Hu, I really am not a flatterer. This is probably the best script I have ever encountered since I entered the industry. So much so that I am a little bit overwhelmed. I feel that 600 million box office is not a problem at all~!"
Li Yuqing was talking about his true feelings. The 600 million box office was clearly an unreachable figure for him. However, after reading the script of "The Ex-Raiders", he had an illusion that 600 million seemed to be a box office.
Within reach.
After the "script exchange meeting" with the two of them, Hu Shuo contacted Qiu Xiaobai and told him that she was going to publish a short story on the Chinese Story Network and asked her to say hello to the website and promote it well.
one time.
As a website that specializes in content, whether it is Chinese Story Network or the previous Everyday Story Network, they all have long-form channels. However, these websites are mainly dedicated to children's stories, and the long-form channel traffic
Generally speaking, it is not the main business of the website.
At present, the pen name Hu Zuozuo is already a great figure in the domestic literary circle. Therefore, whenever Hu Zuozuo publishes a new story, it will arouse the collective attention of netizens. However, Hu Zuozuo seems to have become "lazy" recently and has not published a new work for a long time.
, Weibo and Hu Zuozuo’s personal community on Chinese Story Network all posted messages urging updates.
Without warning, Hu Zuozuo’s Weibo updated: I would like to recommend a novel "Westward Journey" to everyone, it is so good~!!
At the back of the text, Hu Shuo attached a link to "Westward Journey" on the Chinese Story Network.
Regarding the novel version of "Journey to the West", Hu Shuo deeply processed and created it on the basis of the original film. For example, Hu Shuo restored many of the stories mentioned in one sentence in the film in words, so,
In fact, this novel version of "Journey to the West" is really a test for Hu Shuo himself. As for the outcome after it goes online, he is very unsure.
However, there is a bit of good news, that is, Hu Shuo has previously posted classic lines from "Westward Journey" on Hu Zuozuo's Weibo. Therefore, when his fans see the story of "Westward Journey", they will
There will be a feeling of finally finding the source.
"I'll go, the leader is finally more knowledgeable~!"
“How shameless, it’s my own book!”
"Wow, the leader actually published a novel!"
""Westward Journey", this title is a bit confusing!"
"It turns out to be a Journey to the West theme. It's already bad, okay!"
"Produced by the group leader, we must support it!"
"..."
Hu Zuozuo's sudden "deception" on Weibo immediately aroused the attention of netizens, and the comment area was also very lively. Hu Shuo's "Westward Journey" which was uploaded not long ago has gained a lot of attention.
It didn’t take long for relevant comments about the novel version of “Journey to the West” to come out.
"What's going on? I don't understand it at all!"
"Let me go, is this really the story of Journey to the West?"
"Sun Wukong? Supreme Treasure? Bandit??"
"This time it's really hard to understand. I feel so dizzy watching it."
"This shouldn't be a story for children, why are there pornographic jokes!"
"It seems that the Supreme Treasure is the reincarnation of Sun Wukong. I am looking forward to the story behind it."
"..."
Hu Shuo uploaded the opening 20,000 words at once. Among the 20,000 words, in addition to the appearance of familiar characters from Journey to the West in the prologue, the story suddenly switches to five hundred years later.
A group of bandits and the "Spring Thirty-year-old Lady" appeared. This story seems to have nothing to do with Journey to the West.
Therefore, after readers read the first 20,000 words, they are all confused and have almost no positive comments.
Hu Shuo flipped through the readers' comments and frowned. He was originally unsure about the novel version of "Journey to the West", but now that he saw these comments, he felt even more unsure.
