As for "Those Years, The Girl We Chased Together", he would admit it even if it was filmed and hit the streets. After all, it is a memory. If you can have such a memory once in your life, it will be a worthwhile trip.
"Don't worry, Mr. Nine Knives, under the premise of reasonable modifications, we will definitely express the original flavor of "Those Years"!" Zhang Yicheng said with a smile, "At the same time, we also want to invite Mr. Nine Knives to become
The screenwriter of "Those Years" would otherwise be responsible for the total revision of the entire script!"
The novel is a novel, and the script is a script. It is impossible to copy it. Some scenes from the novel must be expressed in the words of the filmmaker. Many times, how the entire script is played depends on how much the director understands the script.
Now that the original author of Nine Knives is here, of course it can be much more relaxed. When writing Nine Knives, I must have such a picture in my mind. In this case, I can try my best to capture the flavor of "Those Years"
, the key point is that kind of fresh feeling
In Zhang Yicheng's previous life, he liked the movie "The Girl We Chased Together" very much. Now that it is destined to undergo a major change, of course he hopes to retain as much of the original flavor as possible.
Jiubidao thought for a while, then sighed and said: "Okay, I am willing to sell the copyright of "Those Years" to your company!"
Nine Knives still handed over the copyright of "Those Years" to Zhang Yicheng. If he was allowed to shoot it himself, we don't know how long it will take. Even if Chai Zhiping admires him, he can't help him direct it. After all, he
He is a best-selling author, but he is just an author, not a director. If you want to train him to be a director, you will take a lot of risks.
"Another thing is that we also hope to buy the film and television adaptation rights of your "Life Hunter" series of books!" Zhang Yicheng said, "The Life Hunter" series is a very special series among the Nine Knives books.
It talks about the fact that there is a group of people in the world who have powerful martial arts and the ability to hunt all kinds of strange lives. By hunting all kinds of strange fates, they have powerful power and the destiny of each period of history.
In the * era, there were life-hunters secretly motivating themselves in the dark, either to protect the emperor's destiny, or to hunt for miraculous lives for the reckless rich, or to stop wars with bloodshed, or to do whatever they wanted. They had no common goal, because they were all so powerful that they chased each other.
, killing each other, each his own master
"The Life Hunter Series" is a very special one among the many novels of Nine Knives. One of its great features is that the protagonist is not like the protagonist. The reason why "The Life Hunter" can be described as a series is that he almost every
Each volume has a protagonist, and the real protagonist is not even as many as the protagonist in a certain volume.
It’s really a rip-off!
It's always when I feel so happy to watch it, and suddenly I'm in another story. When Zhang Yicheng watched it in his previous life, he had the urge to strangle nine knives to death. What would happen if he finished writing a story honestly?
But there is nothing we can do about it. Who told him that he was not the author at that time? It is different now. Now that he has a way to adapt this story, that would be the best.
""Life Hunter"?" Nine Knives is a bit strange. Zhang Yicheng actually wants the adaptation rights of the "Life Hunter" series, which has never been mentioned before!
"Yes, it's "The Life Hunter"!" Zhang Yicheng nodded and said, "Our company is very interested in your "The Life Hunter" series, and we plan to adapt it into a series of movies!"
When I was thinking about it before, Zhang Yicheng was wondering whether it would be better to change it into a TV series or adapt it into a movie?
According to the length of "The Hunter", it is easy and stress-free to adapt it into a TV series. However, relatively speaking, Zhang Yicheng is more willing to adapt it into a movie, because relatively speaking, the profit and influence of the movie are
It is far more than a TV series, and adapting it into a movie is a better choice
And as far as the story structure of "The Life Hunter" is concerned, it is basically calculated one volume at a time. Each volume is an independent new story. If it is to be adapted into a TV series, then this story structure will seem unreasonable.
It's appropriate. The front and back cannot be connected, or it's not that they can't be connected. Instead, you need to look at the whole to connect them. All of these add up to a complete story system. However, for most viewers, this is undoubtedly still
A little too strenuous
But it's different when it's made into a movie. It can be made into a series. The story in each volume can be made into a movie, because it is a brand new story.
Of course, the most important thing is that the cheating "Life Hunter" is still being serialized. If it is to be adapted into a TV series, it must have at least the continuity and integrity of the story. Based on the current situation of "Life Hunter"
It's impossible to do, so we might as well just adapt it into a movie.
So after thinking about it for a long time, Zhang Yicheng decided that it would be better to simply change it into a movie.
"Series of movies? I wonder what your company's plans are?" Nine Knives asked.
"Yes, since "The Life Hunter" has not been finished yet, we plan to expand each volume into a story as a movie!" Zhang Yicheng said
"So that's it!" Jiubidao nodded.
"I wonder when your company plans to start filming?" Jiubidao asked.
"According to our company's progress, filming will begin in the middle or end of next year!" Zhang Yicheng said
Jiubidao nodded. This time is not too outrageous. In fact, it is not surprising that a film and television drama has been accurate for several years from the beginning of preparation to the final shooting. The biggest problem is the problem of raising funds.
There are many people who make a lot of money through this these days, but there are also many people who lose money to death.
A few years is not unusual at all, just like many popular time-travel dramas in later generations. They may still be very new to the public, but to readers of online articles, they are all trash and are considered to be under the radar.
Play with the rest
The extremely long preparation and filming period for film and television dramas makes them basically lagging behind
The point is, Zhang Yicheng gave him a very specific time, rather than a virtual concept, which made him very satisfied.
