Chapter 420: Fighting the monsters and upgrading the palace fight
It was not Lin Chen's first time to take off on an airplane, but this transoceanic flight was the most comfortable that Lin Chen had ever experienced in his life.
When the plane takes off, a luxurious air journey begins.
In fact, in addition to the crew, there were two other chefs on the plane.
The cooking skills of these two chefs range from Western food to Chinese food, and the food on the plane is also dazzling, from steak to seafood.
There’s even hotpot!
Eating hotpot on the plane?
I’m afraid no one in this world has ever enjoyed this kind of experience, right?
So as soon as Lin Chen heard that hot pot could be eaten on the plane, he immediately asked Xu Yang and the others to prepare it.
Later, when the plane began to cruise at an altitude of 30,000 feet, the four of them, Lin Chen and Lei Long, drank red wine and ate hot pot in the sky, enjoying a different kind of flight.
After eating and drinking, everyone went back to their bedrooms and slept a thousand miles in Tiansheng.
When he woke up naturally, the plane had already entered the sky above the other side of the ocean. In a few hours, he would arrive at Lin Chen's destination, a city on the east coast of the other side of the ocean, to make an appointment!
With a little time left, Lei Long and his men went to the cockpit to chat with the two captains.
Lin Chen could tell that his bodyguard seemed to be very interested in the two beautiful retired captains, so he let them work hard on their own.
As for himself, he took advantage of this time to sit in the concert hall with Miao Feng, listening to music, drinking wine, and discussing his future work.
According to Lin Chen's calculations, Miao Feng's potential is unlimited, but no matter how potential a person is, he still needs rich experience to fully realize his potential.
Going to help Tang Pu this time was a test prepared by Lin Chen for Miao Feng.
A truly excellent screenwriter can not only satisfy the taste of the audience in one region and country. If Miao Feng wants to become a great screenwriter in the future, he must be equally proficient in the taste of gringos. Lin Chen hopes that he can take advantage of this opportunity
, we can also understand the tastes of overseas audiences.
Miao Feng had already prepared for Tang Pu to write the script for the first season of "The Apprentice". For this reason, he even sent people to buy many of Tang Pu's autobiographies on the other side of the ocean. He was also very interested in this boastful real estate tycoon.
I finally have some understanding.
He also watched foreign variety shows during the Chinese New Year, so he thought he should be able to handle them.
Compared to Tang Pu's variety show, Miao Feng is more worried about another thing.
"Director Lin, I think I really can't handle the palace drama. I can accept variety shows, but the palace drama... I haven't even had a girlfriend. How do you ask me to write a palace drama?
ah?"
"Have you ever talked about the relationship between your girlfriend and the palace drama? Besides, who told you that this drama is about the palace drama?"
"Ah?" Miao Feng was a little dumbfounded.
Lin Chen shook his head, put down his wine glass, and asked, "Let me ask you, have you read online novels?"
Miao Feng nodded.
"Then what genre are you watching? Urban or fantasy?"
"I've seen them all..." Miao Feng said, "But what I've seen more is fantasy..."
As expected...
Lin Chen smiled. Miao Feng was still a college student after all. Fantasy adventure and the strong are his favorites.
"That's alright. Since you like watching fantasy, you must be able to write the script of this drama well."
"Is this related?" Miao Feng was confused.
How can a palace battle drama be connected with the fantasy novels he likes to read?
"Just listen to me briefly outline the plot of this play and you will know."
Lin Chen smiled and explained the drama "Story of Yanxi Palace".
The story of this drama is actually much simpler than those popular palace battle dramas on the market today.
It just tells the story of a young girl, Wei Yingluo, who enters the Forbidden City and becomes a palace maid in order to find the truth about the death of her eldest sister.
Wei Yingluo investigates in the palace and discovers that her sister's death is related to the absurd prince Hong Zhou, so she is determined to seek justice.
Empress Fucha was adept at etiquette and worried that Yingluo would go astray, so she tried her best to give her warmth and help.
Under the Queen's careful guidance, Wei Yingluo gradually grew up to be an upright and strong court lady, put aside her resentment, and lived a serious life.
Afterwards, the queen unfortunately passed away, causing Yingluo to have many misunderstandings about Qianlong. The two went from being hostile to each other to finally understanding and supporting each other.
Yingluo relied on her courage to move forward, her astute mind, and her broad mind to resolve many difficulties in the court, and eventually became the imperial concubine who helped Qianlong in his prosperous era.
After Miao Feng heard Lin Chen tell a rough story, his eyes widened immediately.
After all, due to Lin Chen's ability, he was considered to be a talent with a high probability of becoming a great screenwriter in the future. Although he only heard a rough introduction from Lin Chen, he immediately discovered that this drama was different from the fantasy novels he usually read.
It's really similar.
The process of the heroine Wei Yingluo growing from a palace maid to a noble concubine, in a fantasy novel, wouldn't it be exactly the same as the process of an ordinary person growing into a strong man?
Aren't the enemies Wei Yingluo encountered on her way to growth the same villains in fantasy novels who always stand in front of the protagonist and give the protagonist a slap in the face to gain experience?
After working on it for a long time, this drama turned out to be completely different from the previous heroine palace battle dramas. The focus of the story was not on intrigues, but on fighting monsters and upgrading?
Miao Feng finally understood why Lin Chen asked him to be in charge of the script of this drama.
Seeing Miao Feng's face filled with confusion, Lin Chen smiled and said, "Do you understand now? Are you confident now?"
"I understand." Miao Feng nodded and said, "Director Lin, you want to write this palace battle drama according to Shuangwen's formula? But can this be done?"
"Of course it can be done!" Lin Chen smiled.
Not to mention that in the previous life, "Story of Yanxi Palace" became an instant hit just relying on the broadcast of online video platforms when it was not available on satellite TV.
Lin Chen used his ability to calculate. As long as Miao Feng's script can reach 90% of the level of the original drama, the probability of "Story of Yanxi Palace" becoming a hit is already 100%!
Will Miao Feng's screenwriting skills be inferior to Ma's?
Lin Chen didn't think so.
Miao Feng, who was enlightened, was immediately inspired. He immediately picked up a pen and paper and began to write the script according to the outline that Lin Chen had just explained to him.
Unlike the scripts of variety shows, the writing difficulty and workload of TV drama scripts are much heavier, and he is not willing to waste a single minute.
Lin Chen saw that he was inspired and didn't bother him. He just drank wine and waited for the plane to land.
Closing his eyes, Ivanka's figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
Lin Chen was actually a little excited to see her soon.
