On the morning of December 19, Shumi Studio’s reception room.

Shu Hongming, rice, Feng Chang and Du Rufeng sat opposite each other, Chen Shuijing poured water from the water dispenser and brought it to Shu Hongming, rice and the others.

After chatting casually for a few words, Du Rufeng smiled and said, "Teacher Dashu, I'm so sorry. Come here to disturb you today..."

Shu Hongming smiled slightly and said, "Okay! Director Du, you are polite, it was because I neglected you. The itinerary was indeed full during this period, and I have never been able to talk to you well..."

That’s right, Shu Hongming, Dami is indeed very busy these days.

There are a lot of messy reports in the studio every day. Shu Hongming is so busy that he can't get rid of himself, not to mention, Shu Hongming, Dami has to appear on some variety shows, interviews and other members of the crew of "Those Years". That's it.

Because of his busy schedule, Shu Hongming and Du Rufeng have not been able to make an appointment to talk about the TV series "Journey to the West".

Of course, the point is that Shu Hongming and Du Rufeng are both busy people. Du Rufeng sometimes flies around by plane, and time really doesn't get together. Now that "Those Years" has been released for two weeks, Shu Hongming and rice have also been much more relaxed, and finally freed up time.

However, the media hype of "Those Years" during this period is indeed impressive.

Shu Hongming and Dami, the two newcomers in the film industry, became the first-line movie stars in the film industry under this hype. Of course, this is also because Shu Hongming and Dami were originally very famous, otherwise they would not have been so fast.

As for "Those Years", Zhong Shaohui, the director of "Those Years", was originally just a third-tier missed art film director who was asking for help and investing. Now he is directly rushing into the second-tier line because of "Those Years", but it is still the most prominent one in the second-tier line. Every day, many people hold tickets and scripts to block his doorstep in order to let him direct and make a movie.

There are also Zhang Zhiwei, Jian Yihang and others. Although they are supporting roles, they have become familiar actors because of the success of "Those Years". Zhang Zhiwei has just received a book. Jian Yihang is lucky, and someone contacted him to be the male star...

Du Rufeng chuckled and shook his head: "It's no wonder that you are so busy these days. The box office of "Those Years" is indeed great, now it has 496 million yuan. According to the current trend, the box office of "Those Years" can still be at least three to four weeks, and then slowly draw it, it is almost inevitable that the box office of "Those Years" will exceed 1 billion..."

"Tsk tsk... You are so young, and this is your big screen debut. You have become the male and female protagonists of a movie with a box office of 1 billion yuan. I wonder how many people are jealous..."

Rice was happy next to her, and Shu Hongming also smiled: "Director Du is too proud, we are just lucky."

"Lucky? Where did this kind of thing come from?" Du Rufeng sighed, "Teacher Dashu, after I successfully filmed a TV series, I once made a movie. You should know? I was a well-known producer and director at that time, but the movie I made was so bad. It had an investment of nearly 6 million yuan, and the total box office was only 600,000 yuan. It was simply a loss to my grandma's house, and almost all the money was lost!"

"Later, I honestly became a TV series producer and director. In the movie circle, ordinary people really can't play with it, but you can! You are a real genius!"

Du Rufeng gave a thumbs up, his eyes were complicated and he looked admirable.

Speaking of which, when he heard that Shu Hongming was going to be the male lead of "Those Years", he also felt that "Those Years" would be a sure thing. Who would have expected that "Those Years" would be so successful?

And what caused all this was the gentle and gentle guy in front of him.

This guy is not only a famous genius music producer and singer in the music industry, but also a new film producer and a future genius hero with a billion-dollar box office... Of course, secretly, he is also a super popular genius writer who calls the wind and rain on the Internet and plays an important role in the literary world...

Where did this monster come from?

Shu Hongming smiled slightly, then coughed lightly, changing the topic: "Director Du, let's talk about "Journey to the West". I briefly read the TV script of "Journey to the West" you faxed to me before. Your adaptation is very good, but there are too many..."

"Something more?" Du Rufeng was stunned for a moment and asked strangely, "What are so many?"

Shu Hongming continued to explain: "Director Du, it means literally. You have written too much of the script story of "Journey to the West". The story of "Journey to the West" in the whole story of "Journey to the West" is a total of 9981 difficulties. You have actually written all 9981 difficulties, which makes the TV series "Journey to the West" seem too complicated..."

Du Rufeng thought about it and understood what Shu Hongming meant: "Teacher Dashu meant that there is no need to write every difficulty in "Journey to the West"?"

Shu Hongming nodded and said, "That's right, we just need to select some representative adventure stories..."

Du Rufeng immediately shook his head and did not agree with Shu Hongming's opinion: "... In this way, "Journey to the West" can indeed be streamlined, but in this way, "Journey to the West" is incomplete. Teacher Dashu, this is your own "Journey to the West". Are you willing to make this adaptation incomplete?"

Shu Hongming waved his hand and said, "Director Du, listen to me first. Although "Journey to the West" is difficult, if all of it is filmed, the routines are exactly the same and very monotonous. When you learn from your master and make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace, the audience will find it new, but once the repetition of such plots as "The master is captured by a monster", we will definitely lose a lot of audiences and the ratings will also drop..."

"...If we first select some stories to make them into TV series, this problem will not exist. As for the remaining stories, we should not shoot them, but wait until the audience accepts "Journey to the West" before filming the sequel, and then filming all the stories."

"In this case, it will be more beneficial to the ratings, don't you?"

Du Rufeng was stunned for a while, then slapped his thigh: "Yes, I just care about the complete story and forgot this. Then tell me, which stories should we shoot first?"

Next, Shu Hongming and Du Rufeng discussed for a while, finally selected more than a dozen very distinctive stories, and then talked about joint bidding and auction.

Seeing that it was noon, Shu Hongming, Rice, Du Rufeng, Chen Shuijing and others went to a nearby hotel to ask for a private room. They ate and chatted. As they were talking, Du Rufeng patted Shu Hongming's shoulder and said:

"Teacher Dashu, "Journey to the West" is your work, you have to support the shooting! I watched your performance in the movie "Those Years", and my acting skills are simply superb! If you want me, why don't you play Sun Wukong!"

"Cough cough..." Shu Hongming, who was eating, coughed lightly, "What did you say? I won't act."

His image doesn't look like Sun Wukong at all, right? Does he look like a sharp-mouthed monkey cheek?

Du Rufeng was stunned for a moment: "Don't you want to play Sun Wukong? Then...why Tang Monk?"

Shu Hongming was speechless and couldn't help but think of Tang Sanzhang, who sang "only-tempered" in "A Chinese Odyssey", rolled his eyes and said a slutty word in his heart.

Tang Seng, your sister! (To be continued.)
