Chapter 463 Character prototype
Zhang Chu was a little happy after hearing Xu Ji's reply. At least from the story, the old man seemed to be attracted. The two famous Peking Opera actors who spanned decades of separation, joy and sorrow and joy combined with the background of the great era are quite legendary.
This is much better than shooting a Peking Opera movie. The characters in this novel seem to be integrated with the characters in the Peking Opera Farewell My Concubine. Although the story involves a possible sensitive homosexual love, it is not difficult to accept.
Now society has been much open, and there is no more rule in the plot handling. At least this is not the main factor, and even tragedy is formed due to secular prejudice and the psychology of the characters, which is even better avoided!
Xu Ji hadn't thought about whether to shoot or not at this time, he just wanted to read the novel.
The excellent Chinese films from the 1990s were produced in large part because the Chinese novels at that time were wonderful and provided directors with sufficiently exciting adaptations.
Today is different from the past. It is becoming increasingly difficult to have in-depth works. Most of them are aiming at the huge youth book market. It is rare for a successful person like Zhang Chu to write about Farewell My Concubine.
The old man thought about it for a while before saying, "The prototypes of the two characters Cheng Dieyi and Duan Xiaolou are afraid that it is not Mr. Mei Lanfang and Mr. Yang Xiaolou?"
"How dare I arrange those two masters? Mr. Mei Lanfang has a beard and ambition. The protagonist in my novel is completely virtual and has no realistic prototype."
If you say the most famous Peking Opera master in China, it must be Mei Lanfang!
Even if many people who have never heard of Peking Opera know this name, if Zhang Chu insists that he got inspiration from Mr. Mei and writes Cheng Dieyi as the prototype, he will probably have a higher attention, because Mr. Mei has also played Yu Ji in Farewell My Concubine.
But Zhang Chu still couldn't do such a random thing. One of him didn't want the novel characters to be linked to reality, and the other didn't want to cause any trouble. He also didn't want to put Mr. Mei in the whirlpool of public opinion.
There are many sensitive factors in "Farewell My Concubine". Whether it is homosexual love or the harm of rebellion, it should not involve the long-lost master, so you must now make it clear to save trouble from getting the time!
Many people illusoryly explore the prototype of characters when reading novels, just like the characters in "Dream of Red Mansions" have prototypes, and Red scholars who specialize in studying this type of science are called "Suanyin School".
It seems that every novel should be like that. A certain character corresponds to a certain character in reality and history.
No matter what Ms. Li Bihua thought when she wrote the novel, she was completely fictional here and there was no prototype!
Xu Ji didn't expect Zhang Chu to deny it so bluntly. He nodded and said, "I won't keep you anymore. It's true that you write the novel earlier. You guy's head is so many things that you don't fear explosions."
"Okay, Mr. Xu, please rest. I'll leave first, otherwise you'll be late for both classes at 3:00 in the afternoon."
"I still chat here if I have classes, so go to class quickly! How many people want to go to Yan Da can't go." Xu Ji's beard and glared at him, as if he regarded Zhang Chu as his nephew.
...
After coming out of Zhengyi Temple Opera House, Zhang Chu stepped on the accelerator a few times while driving, but he was still late. Who made everyone rich now and could drive on the road?
However, there are people who are late occasionally, so he barely counted it for the first time, so he did not attract attention when he slipped into the classroom from the back door. Professor Qin just looked up and continued to give a lecture.
"You might have died of sleeping at noon, right? I just wanted to call you secretly, but I was afraid that you would die outside and no one would collect your body, and then Matcha was so hungry that he ate your body."
During the break, An Mi walked from the front row to the back and joked casually, but the more she said, the more she became more terrifying and disgusting.
Zhang Chu frowned and said angrily: "Are you cursing me?"
An Mi quickly denied: "No, I just read a lot of supernatural novels recently."
"It's better to look at that one less, so that some people can't sleep in the middle of the night." Zhang Chu immediately turned on the mutual confrontation mode, and exposing the shortcomings must be exposed!
"I can't sleep because I drank some tea during evening study. Is there caffeine and tea polyphenols in the tea?"
Perhaps because she was joking too much, An Mi was a little shy in the past, but now she is getting thicker and can find these scientific reasons for herself.
However, Zhang Chu sighed meaningfully, "Oh~ If you don't say anything, I don't know that Master Kong's green tea is so good."
An Mi couldn't say that Zhang Chu had to flee in panic and went straight to the toilet through the back door to escape.
At this time, Zhang Chu couldn't help but smile. It was a great thing to tease these friends occasionally, at least you could relax.
He has a lot of things now, and the piles of things are endless. Now he wants to finish the novel "Farewell My Concubine".
The new company is basically fine, but he still has to talk to Menglong. The manager of Hanlin Xuanyan Branch has not been recruited yet, but the school is already urging him to hand over the storefront before the month!
Not to mention the big contract of Yida Group, he had to come up with attractive conditions after establishing his own business. "Ghost Blows Out the Light 2" also needs to be put on the agenda. As for Jiang Hua's "A Chinese Odyssey" that he promised Jiang Hua, he had long been ranked in some unknown place.
Zhang Chu made full use of the ten minutes between classes. He was carefully planning his time and prioritizing the matter.
The things that are anxious must be completed first, and those that are not in a hurry can be kept behind slowly.
Fortunately, he is not fighting alone now. At least he has two assistants, Ye Shumei and Zhou Kang, who can help with many things.
Moreover, the preparation work for the outline of "Farewell My Concubine" has been completed, and now all the words are almost in my mind. You only need to write them out and modify them twice more!
The advantage of being a boss is that you don’t have to do it yourself and know how to let your men do it. It’s like recruiting a store manager and bookstore decoration. You can find a decoration company with the office of Hanlin Culture Company to complete it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chu couldn't help but stretch and went back tonight to spend some time writing two more chapters, and then he had to consider a peaceful breakup with Menglong Culture Media.
Chapter completed!
