Chapter 226 "Di Renjie" and "Xu Xiake"

result……

Wang Meng was about to express his plan, but Ning Hao and others came over.

Zhang Lantian, Ning Hao, Zheng Kai, Tang Yan, Bai Baihe and others came here.

Seeing that his boss was talking to Chen Kexin, Tsui Hark and others, these people were very proud. They thought to themselves: Look, the boss is still awesome. Manager Zhang just took us to meet a few colleagues and reporters, and now his boss is talking to Chen Kexin and Tsui Hark.

Wang Meng introduced to several people. Except for Ning Hao and Chen Kexin, the other people, Tsui Hark and others also knew Zhang Lantian.

After all, how many people have heard of Wang Meng’s number one general?

"Where are we talking about?" Wang Meng hurriedly pulled back the plan he had just made.

"Director Wang, you said that your work is a magical blockbuster in the year." Shi Nansheng said.

"Yes, my plan for next year is a magical movie. I have figured out the theme, which is changed based on a small story in the famous Chinese book "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", called "Painted Skin".

""Painted Skin"?" Tsui Hark said in confusion.

As a Hong Kong director, I am naturally very familiar with "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", especially the famous painted skin in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", which is even more familiar to many people.

"Director Wang, what are your thoughts?" Tsui Hark was a little uncertain.

Wang Meng knew where the question Tsui Hark asked this? It’s nothing more than what is the best change in the painted skin. I’m familiar with it. What other new tricks can I find?

Wang Meng knew Tsui Hark’s idea, but smiled and asked back: “Director Xu, you just said that your future plans are also in the costume type?”

"Yes, that's how I think." Tsui Hark didn't understand why Wang Meng asked that.

"That's it, think about it, if I had a simple old story in "Painted Skin", what is worth telling you? My idea is..." Wang Meng paused and thought about how to explain it to everyone. But after thinking about it for a while, everyone would definitely understand it and said, "Or, can you understand "Lord of the Rings"?"

Wang Meng said this, the sky is rolling.

How could you not know how powerful "Lord of the Rings" is! That is a magical production!

Thinking of this, everyone understands.

It turns out that Wang Meng's "Painted Skin" is not a simple story of painted skin; or as simple as "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", but has changed into a magical blockbuster like "Lord of the Rings".

"Director Wang, do you mean that you will use a lot of special effects and magical themes? And, subversive adaptations?" Tsui Hark asked?

Wang Meng snapped her fingers and nodded, "Yes, it's just such an adaptation. My initial investment has reached nearly 100 million. What do you think?"

Well, after saying that, as long as you are not a fool, you understand, your relationship is really a blockbuster. It seems that your vision just now is small.

And the few DreamWorks, especially the actors, had their eyes shining. They wanted to participate in such a big production, then...

"Don't think about it, you can't afford such a big production, it's better to be down-to-earth." Wang Meng looked at Tang Yan and Zheng Kai, looking at him tightly, poured cold water on several people.

When the few people heard this, they became a little discouraged, but Wang Meng said: "But being a supporting role is OK, keep working hard."

Everyone is happy about this statement, and it seems that there is hope.

Tsui Hark thought for a while and understood, and said, "I understand, Director Wang understands. What you mean is that my main focus is also moving towards this aspect, right? Through ancient costume, a subject that everyone can accept, it extends to the subject of magical mythology?"

Tsui Hark is Tsui Hark. After Wang Meng said this indirectly, he understood. It turned out that Wang Meng turned around in a circle and only reminded him that he didn’t need so many ideas, just grasping one point.

There is no need to follow the steps. Just like my "Painted Skin", the subversive adaptation becomes a large production of myths, magic and ancient costumes.

So, Tsui Hark was a little impressed by Wang Meng at this moment, because Wang Meng told him a direction with his actions.

Although he is nearly forty years older than Wang Meng, it does not hinder the exchanges between his peers.

"Does Director Wang have any advice on my plan?" Tsui Hark asked modestly.

"Haha, I dare not, I dare not give advice. I want to cooperate with Director Xu." Wang Meng finally revealed the fox's tail.

"Director Wang, please tell me." Tsui Hark seemed to attach great importance to it.

Everyone around is also very cautious. Let’s see what kind of collision will Tsui Hark and Wang Meng have with him.

"Director Xu, you just said that the theme of ancient costumes is also the story of our Chinese nation and the peak era, right?"

In fact, this is purely Wang Meng's random question. Tsui Hark's plan is like this. He is just showing off his best intentions. He is nothing more than to draw up the next plan.

"Yes, that's what I think, the costume themes of our Chinese nation at its peak." Tsui Hark.

Wang Meng: "Which dynasty represents the peak period of our Chinese nation?"

"Han, Tang." Tsui Hark.

"To be specific, or what you yearn for the most?"

"Tang."

"That's it. Since your first idea is the Tang Dynasty, then let's find a story about the Tang Dynasty?" Wang Meng asked.

Tsui Hark was stunned, but asked, "The Tang Dynasty can be sure, that's not bad. But just as Director Wang said, how did the Tang Dynasty adapt it into a somewhat magical theme? Just like your "Painted Skin", painted skin can be magical, but how can I magical in history?"

This is Tsui Hark’s biggest question, and it is also a place he has been unable to understand. His plan is not a simple costume production, just like the current domestic directors, it is just a simple costume drama, which Tsui Hark disdains.

"I know, do you think your question is that history cannot be changed at will, nor can it change a magical story like "Lord of the Rings", and it is not even comparable to "Painted Skin", right?" Wang Meng.

"Indeed, this is the crucial point that I didn't make a decision." Tsui Hark.

"Haha..." Wang Meng laughed.

"Director Xu, what you think is too general. Yes, the Tang Dynasty is very great and there are many stories. But there are not many things that meet the point you ask for. However, have you ever thought that if we specifically look at a historical figure, we will make him a little more mythical. Is this feasible?"

Wang Meng was inducing step by step, and he was only one sentence.

Tsui Hark, who suddenly realized, understood that I cannot adapt history, but I will be cursed by movie fans.

But it is completely feasible for me to adapt a historical figure and make his myth!?

"Director Wang, what kind of character do you mean?" Tsui Hark became more and more impressed by Wang Meng. Wang Meng's few words straightened out most of his thinking. He was really a genius.

When Wang Meng heard this, he knew that the time was up.

"Director Xu, turn a historical figure into a more mythical one. What kind of historical figure do you think is best adapted and accepted by everyone?" Wang Meng asked.

After hearing this, everyone's minds ran quickly, but Wang Meng said: "Detective, adventure... These are the main directions. Look at the foreign Sherlock Holmes, Da Vinci-code, or Detective Conan. Such detective reasoning subjects are the key points!?"

After Wang Meng finished speaking, there was a silence on the scene...

"Haha... I understand."

"Director Wang, it's really amazing."

When Wang Meng said this, everyone present admired him.

Isn’t it just what Wang Meng said, detectives and adventure are the real ones.

"I think Di Renjie of the prosperous Tang Dynasty is definitely a good subject!" Wang Meng said with a final say.

After Wang Meng said it, everything happened naturally and there was no need to explain it.

Wang Meng also showed off how many names - Tongtian Empire, the Dragon King of the Shendu, the Feast of Death, Kunlun Golden Peak, the Lover Vine, the Ghost Valley, the Five Ghosts Slap Gate, the Nine-tailed Fox, Garuluo, etc., and the names that sounded extremely awesome.

"It seems that Director Wang has already studied it!" Tsui Hark said this and he was convinced.

"Haha, Xiaoyou Research. I like this kind of subject matter very much. I want to make it a series of "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and even "007" made by our domestic series. I even thought of changing "Xu Xiake's Travels" into an adventure movie series."

"Oh, there is also the "Xu Xiake" series, Director Wang, tell me?" Tsui Hark was surprised again and thought to himself - it seems that Wang Meng has indeed studied it, "Die Renjie" magic detective series, and "Xu Xiake" magic adventure series, it seems that Wang Meng has something in her belly.

"I've been dissatisfied with everyone saying that I have thought about the "Die Renjie" series for a long time, but I just thought about the "Xu Xiake" series. I haven't gone deeper yet, so I can only talk about the future plans." Wang Meng did think of the "Xu Xiake" series, but he just thought about it himself, but there is no ready-made theme like "Die Renjie" for him to brag about.

"Actually, Director Xu, I think, if you really have an idea, how will we cooperate? If you have time to go to DreamWorks, we will study the "Die Renjie" series in detail. What do you think?" Wang Meng threw out his thoughts.

"So I wish, I dare not invite you." Tsui Hark gave affirmation.

Wang Meng secretly exclaimed in her heart: "It's done." The "Die Renjie" series belongs to DreamWorks.

"Director Wang, do you have any other ideas about the "Xu Xiake" series?" However, Chen Kexin, who was standing beside him, asked.

Wang Meng was stunned when he asked this?

"I am dissatisfied with Director Wang's saying that I am envious of your cooperation with Lao Xu. I am very interested in the "Xu Xiake" adventure series you mentioned?" Chen Kexin said.

Wang Meng heard the implicit meaning. It seemed that Chen Kexin had fallen in love with this subject. Chen Kexin said last time that he liked science fiction, which subverted Wang Meng's perception of him, and now that he liked such adventures, it subverted again.

It seems that any director doesn’t want to be positioned by others, and hopes to make different series to prove himself.

Chen Kexin's literature and art have reached its peak. Now that he is unwilling to give up, he has begun to try costume blockbusters like "The Legend of the Conquest", but he is still far from reaching his positioning for himself!

Now I want to try the adventure. It is also a kind of director's stubbornness.

Wang Meng is naturally willing, and his plans have already been full. He is naturally happy to have such a big director serving his company.

He hurriedly said, "If Director Chen doesn't dislike it, you can go to our company if you have time. Can we discuss it with our system?"

"I have to go, I have to go. Haha..." Chen Kexin was happy.

"Congratulations to the three directors. It seems that I will learn more from you in the future." Ning Hao next to him was very jealous, really jealous.

The series Wang Meng mentioned are full of excitement when he thinks about it. If all of them are successfully produced, then DreamWorks will be invincible in China. Ning Hao cannot participate. It’s a pity.

"Do not worry, there are opportunities in the future. I am here, guarding the two great directors tell you that you will never leave you free when you don't want to make a movie, as long as you are willing." Wang Meng said to Ning Hao.

Ning Hao is what he values ​​the most and he cultivates it. There is still a difference between his own family and outsiders.

Now I have planned to cooperate with Tsui Hark and the others. I don’t have enough directors or they have no experience, so I am like this.

If your family can be satisfied, you won’t look for outsiders like this.

Ning Hao was also jealous just now, and Wang Meng was embarrassed to say this, so he had to laugh awkwardly.

Then the group discussed and confirmed that they had time to go to Dream Factory to find Wang Meng.

After the Golden Horse Awards dinner, Wang Meng and his group returned to the Magic City the next day.

Wang Meng is now responsible for the post-production and promotion of "You, My Deskmate".
