Chapter 270 Released

In July, the latest issue of ancient and modern legends published the finale of the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and indicated that this martial arts novel will also have a prequel and a poster. Readers are asked to wait patiently.

This makes readers who were originally dissatisfied with the ending more expectation.

At the end of the Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, Yu Jiaolong left the thief Luo Xiaohu and walked away from the desert alone because of his family.

This kind of martial arts novel with a non-reunion ending is not suitable for today's era. Generally speaking, there is no market for writing tragic stories in popular novels. Most people like to watch the type of lovers who finally get married.

However, the novels in the Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon series are not a happy ending.

For example, Li Mubai and Yu Xiulian, both of them clearly like each other, but they cannot be together because of traditional morality. The same is true for Yu Jiaolong and Luo Xiaohu.

The children of the world should be free and easy, arouse their grudges, be proud of the world, and be free from the constraints of worldly fame and fortune.

However, the novel is written in a very tragic way. The constant conflict between Jianghu culture and traditional culture, as well as aristocratic culture, puts moral shackles on the heroes.

To put it bluntly, this novel is a bit heart-wrenching, not killing enough, and not happy enough.

This is why Wang Dulu is known as the master of tragic martial arts novels.

Lin Zixuan did not think of changing the ending to cater to the preferences of magazine readers. It was so good. In the next film, he began to write the story of Li Mubai and Yu Xiulian getting to know each other.

At the same time, the publishing work of Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon is in preparation and is expected to be released nationwide in September.

During this period, Lin Zixuan didn't arrange too much for himself and spent most of his time with Mu Shanshan.

That is, I write articles at home, chat with Mu Shanshan, occasionally go to the company, or have dinner parties.

I was relaxed and comfortable. I used to do everything myself, but now someone has done it for him. I can’t let those people in the company be idle, otherwise I will get a salary in vain.

Just like the TV script of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Lin Zixuan handed over to the people in the company to be responsible for the creation.

He is planning to invest 1 million to shoot a 15-episode TV series. He first tried the audience's reaction. Now the domestic TV series market is a world of dramas, historical dramas and urban emotional dramas, and martial arts dramas belong to niches.

Zhang Guoli became completely popular with his plays and historical dramas, and has filmed many such dramas in the past two years.

However, he is a little distressed now because the character has been set and it is not easy to transform, and the audience will not buy it.

He became a professional resident who played the emperor. Although he could win both fame and fortune, this was not a good thing for an actor, especially Zhang Guoli was still thinking about making a movie.

When the audience sees any role he plays, they will think of the emperor and will be instantly distracted.

"Xiaolin, do you have any role here? Let me slow down, as long as it is not the emperor." Zhang Guoli asked.

"Brother Zhang, I'm just a martial arts drama book. When the book comes out, you can take a look. You can pick it up and play the role you like." Lin Zixuan said righteously.

"Okay, this time I will choose someone with personality and enjoy the fun of the show." Zhang Guoli said happily.

It’s not that Zhang Guoli really can’t find a role to play. Now there are more private film and television companies looking for him to act. However, the scripts are of varying quality. Although the pay for them is high, filming such a TV series ruins its reputation.

He is not short of money, so there is no need to take on such a show.

He trusted Lin Zixuan's script more, and it didn't matter whether he played the lead role or not. He mainly got rid of the title of a professional emperor.

"Brother Zhang, do you know who is good at shooting martial arts dramas among directors?" Lin Zixuan asked.

"It's rare for us to shoot martial arts dramas in the mainland. I remembered that I was very interested in martial arts novels." Zhang Guoli recalled, "I am a director of China TV station named Zhang Jizhong."

"I remember it, so I'd better wait until the script comes out." Lin Zixuan said.

This is indeed a problem. There are very few directors in China who shoot martial arts dramas. He can’t get a director from Xiangjiang, because the cost is too high, so he should rest assured with his own people.

Anyway, preparations still take time, so don't be too anxious.

Good news came from Jiang Wen, and Huaying Company finally had plans to show the sunny days nationwide.

Thanks to Hollywood blockbusters, the box office impact of Hollywood blockbusters has increasingly revealed the dilemma of domestic movies.

In this case, if you want to boost the morale of domestic movies, you must release a domestic movie that can be sold well.

Although the sunny days are co-productions, they are still films made by domestic filmmakers. They have won awards at film festivals abroad, with guaranteed quality and publicity stunts.

Of course, due to the sensitivity of the theme of this film, Huaying Company is quite cautious in its distribution.

They decided to hold a small-scale screening event in major cities across the country first. If the audience responded well after watching it, there would be no strong criticism in the society, and the screening would be opened in major theaters across the country.

The movie's release date is set on September 1st and its premiere is in Shanghai City.

This kind of small-scale screening is not at the same time, but comes from one city and one city, and only after Shanghai City will it be Beijing and other places.

Jiang Wen was particularly happy about this. He was planning to take actors such as Xia Yu and Ning Jing to Shanghai City to conduct publicity activities.

One is that the movie I made myself is finally going to meet domestic audiences. It has been more than two years since I was preparing for filming to being released in the theater. It is really not easy.

The sunny days have been released in Hong Kong and Taiwan long ago, and the box office is quite good.

The second point is that after the movie is sold at a domestic box office, he can get the money to continue making movies, which is the main reason why he is working hard to promote it.

These days, Jiang Wen has not been idle. After opening his own film company, he thought about making the next movie.

He made two books and showed them to Lin Zixuan, one was the script about traitors, and the other was about feeding pigs, saying that they were feeding pigs, but in fact they were talking about human affairs, which contained metaphors.

Lin Zixuan was not optimistic about these two books. It was not that the story was not good, but that he could not pass the review.

Sure enough, Jiang Wen was shot after handing over the script, saying that there was something wrong with the script's thoughts.

Jiang Wen was hesitating whether to continue shooting. French filmmakers were very interested in such controversial scripts and were willing to invest in making movies. However, in China, the movies that were not approved by the General Administration for shooting privately are all underground movies.

Once such movies are taken abroad to attend the film festival, the director will be severely punished by the General Administration.

Jiang Wen's current condition is very dangerous. If he takes a step forward, he will touch the bottom line of the General Administration. What he is thinking is whether I want to give it a try. He has a spirit of adventure in his bones.

The release of the sunny days distracted his attention. He wanted Lin Zixuan to go to Shanghai City with him to attend the premiere, but Lin Zixuan did not agree.

If it was OK in Beijing, Mu Shanshan should have just given birth to a child at that time, and he would not have time to run around. It will be continued.
