Xiao Qian wanted to tease Yin and Yang Zi, and of course he was not out of boredom. He didn't tell Fu Wansheng the deeper meaning, but he also considered it carefully.
In the entertainment and cultural industry, no matter what you do, if you want to make it successful, publicity must be the most important thing.
Based on the media ethics of this era, if you don't put in a lot of effort to promote your work, it might take one or two years before it becomes known to the public.
Just like Xiao Qian's previous work "Dragon Ball", it took half a year to become popular all over the country.
Xiao Qian was in a hurry to get money, so naturally she couldn't afford to wait.
He has no choice in terms of media methods, so he can only create gimmicks.
When it comes to gimmicks, what is more interesting when literati quarrel?
Throughout the ages, scolding battles among literati have always been the most popular. There are many people who follow them by shouting, playing gongs and drums, and pointing fingers.
Zhuge Liang scolded Wang Lang to death, and Zhou Lu Xun and Shu Ren scolded the literary world, and their reputations will be passed down through the ages.
If he starts such a scolding war, among other things, it will definitely be of great benefit to the promotion of "Flying Fox Gaiden".
Fu Wansheng couldn't control him, so he had to focus on the work in front of him.
"By the way, do you know Director Zheng Xuerui?"
Xiao Qian nodded.
"Of course I know him. He is a great director. Why did he scold me too?"
"Go, go, go, director Zheng is so smart, how can he have time to argue with you?"
"Then why are you talking about him?"
Fu Wansheng really has something serious to do.
"Last time I went to the capital for a meeting, I met director Zheng Xuerui. He admired your "Book, Sword and Enmity" quite a lot. He seemed to have the intention of adapting it into a TV series. But I heard that you are in the film and television industry.
So I’m very sorry. I want to ask you, when will our book be adapted?”
Xiao Qian blinked, but he didn't expect to reach this point.
"I never thought about adapting "The Book of Swords and Enmities" into a TV series."
Good guy, Fu Wansheng was immediately anxious.
"What? You don't want to adapt such good material?"
Seeing Fu Wansheng's eyes blood red, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour, Xiao Qian wisely did not tell the truth.
"I've been busy recently and really don't have time. By the way, doesn't the director Zheng Xuerui you mentioned want to film it? You can contact him and ask. If he really wants to film it, I will give him a cheap price for the film and television adaptation."
Fu Wansheng jumped up in shock.
"You...are you willing to hand over your work to another director for adaptation?"
Xiao Qian has a majestic image of light, wind, and moonlight.
"What are you talking about? Why can't my work be photographed by others? There are so many outstanding film and television workers in our country, and each of them is a senior worthy of my learning. If they can take a fancy to my work, that's me
An honor.”
"Really?"
"Hey, who told me to be such a kind person?"
Fu Wansheng's head was full of questions, but he didn't delve into it.
After "Book, Sword and Enmity" became a hit, he had been thinking about the film and television adaptation. He originally wanted to find a time to discuss it with Xiao Qian and continue to deepen cooperation.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qian was willing to sell the adaptation rights. This generous spirit was completely different from the devil who had been clamoring to bow to Yin Yangzi before.
He didn't believe that Xiao Qian was kind, but he really couldn't figure out the specific reason.
In fact, there is only one main reason why Xiao Qian has never thought about adapting "The Book of Swordsman" for film and television, and that is that if this play is adapted into a film and television, it will not be popular.
It's that simple.
There is an obvious watershed in Jin's martial arts, that is, some works will become very popular and win countless fans after being adapted into film and television dramas; while some works will have mediocre results and fail to make any waves.
Those that became instant hits include "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Deer and the Cauldron".
The rest are of the type that are not popular after being photographed.
Some people may object, asking where do you place "The Swordsman" and "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Sword"?
But in fact, the chances of success for these two novels being adapted into film and television dramas are really low.
Among the film and television works adapted from "The Swordsman", the movie version and the bearded version are popular, but these have little to do with the novel itself.
The movie version of "The Swordsman" will become popular, it is better to say that it is a brand new story under the guise of "The Swordsman".
The bearded version of Zhang became popular because it had the gimmick of being the first martial arts drama to be filmed in mainland China, coupled with the expensive publicity.
In fact, everyone who has seen it knows what kind of crap was filmed?
Xiao Qian had done some research in his previous life on the issue of varying popularity among film and television adaptations of Jin's martial arts.
He found that there was a pattern in this.
Basically, those that are big hits have a thrilling point that makes the audience's adrenaline surge.
And this element became a magic weapon for success in later online novels.
For example, Duan Yu swallowed the Mangmu Clam, Xu Zhu absorbed the inner strength of the three Xiaoyao elders for more than two hundred years, Wei Xiaobao married seven wives, Guo Jing got the "Nine Yin Manual", Yang Guo got the Dugu Qiubai inheritance, these
They are all places where readers and viewers can imagine themselves and wish they could live in them.
On the contrary, those that are not popular belong to the type with many shortcomings.
Just like Chen Jialuo in "Book of Swordsman", readers and audiences want to kill him after watching it.
Princess Xiangxiang, such a good girl, was given away by you. Why don't you die?
Just like a certain person named Hecheng Fengyue wrote that Jessica Jung's boyfriend was someone else in "The President's World" and was scolded as a bastard.
Mr. Xiao is now well-known and has a golden reputation, so he naturally cherishes his feathers.
Even if it is your own work, why should you adapt it if you already know that it will not be popular?
Nowadays, someone wants to take advantage of someone and even gives him money, so what if he is generous once?
If you switch to "Dragon", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and "The Deer and the Cauldron", you can look at his face again.
When the manuscript fell into Fu Wansheng's hands, he did not start writing it immediately. Instead, he hid and read it by himself for three days.
When I saw him again, this guy's eyes were red and he said something very philosophical.
"Hey, everyone hopes that their confidante is Cheng Lingsu, but everyone is chasing Yuan Ziyi. Do you think all men are mean?"
Xiao Qian nodded.
"If you think this way, it means you have the potential to be a scumbag."
Fu Wansheng's face became tense.
"If you can't speak, don't speak."
Back to the book, he didn't read it in vain.
"This part of "Flying Fox Gaiden" is very exciting, but is the later part of "Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain" superfluous?"
When he decided to publish "Flying Fox Gaiden", Xiao Qian had already thought about it and included the content of "Snowy Mountain Flying Fox".
After all, the overall length of the two novels is not very large, especially "Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain". The pitiful word count is not worthy of being published in a separate volume.
Simply, since they are all Hu Fei's stories anyway, we might as well merge them into "Flying Fox Gaiden" and turn two into one, which can be regarded as a benefit to readers.
As for whether readers like it or not, Mr. Xiao doesn't care.
Can't things in this world be bought and sold by force? If not, then sell by force.
When dealing with Wan Sheng, Xiao Qian told the truth.
"That part is almost tasteless. It's tasteless and it's a pity to throw it away. But I might as well publish it. In the future, it might be used in other places."
Xiao Qian actually made a lot of changes in "Flying Fox in the Snow Mountain". Especially the description of Miao Ruolan, he spent a lot of time on it.
Regarding Miao Ruolan, he always felt that Mr. Jin in his previous life failed when he created this character.
According to the description in the book, Miao Ruolan's temperament and style are almost a replica of her mother Nanlan, which is also consistent with the meaning of her name.
But from a logical perspective, this doesn't make sense.
Nan Lan was the eldest daughter of an official family. She was rescued by Miao Renfeng due to an accident, so she committed herself to marrying. But in fact, Nan Lan did not love Miao Renfeng.
In her mind, this husband who was invincible in the world was not that great. Her ideal lover was not like this either, so she ran away with Tian Guinong in the end.
This fact is enough to show that a rough guy like Miao Renfeng does not understand the heart of a wealthy lady.
If you don't even understand, can you expect Miao Renfeng to raise Miao Ruolan to be such a rich lady?
This is not something he can do just because of how much money he has.
It would be nice if Miao Ruolan didn't become a rich second-generation Maserati driver under his influence.
Therefore, in Xiao Qian's writing, Miao Ruolan's temperament, personality and style have all changed.
While Miao Ruolan maintains a certain aura of wealth, her personality is more like a lively tomboy.
This can explain why she fell in love with Hu Fei immediately after meeting him, no matter what.
Otherwise, according to Miao Ruolan's original character, just like when Nan Lan saw Miao Renfeng, you, a rough man with a big beard, stay away from me.
