150, there are fish hooked
The two chatted for more than half an hour, basically what Zhao Ya meant, while Tang Shuang listened and responded from time to time.
Unexpectedly, the shy little girl turned out to be a chatterbox.
In fact, Zhao Yayi is not a talkative person. She is just a girl in the pink fantasy of love. She can't wait to confide in the person in front of her, share everything she has, and expect the other person to do the same to her.
Just as Zhao Yayi was talking about interesting things about high school, Tang Shuang's cell phone on the table vibrated, and a strange call came through.
Tang Shuang left apologetically and went to a place where no one was around to answer the call. After hearing one sentence, she hung up. It was a harassing call and the excuse was too poor.
However, before waiting for two seconds, this person called again. Tang Shuang took one look and pressed the phone down.
Before waiting for two seconds, the other party came again. Tang Shuang thought for a moment, connected, and said first: "You said you are Zhang Fei? That great director? How can you prove it?"
The person on the other end of the phone who claimed to be director Zhang Fei said: "I am attending a film festival in Guangdong Province. I have seen your "Hero" and I am very interested. If you have time, we can meet and chat now..."
This was a very rich voice, and the other party's tone was very imposing. Unless it was specially trained, it should have been developed by being in a high position for a long time. Tang Shuang listened to the other party's words and felt a little convinced.
At this time, a text message popped up on the phone, which was from Li Haonan.
It turned out that Zhang Fei first contacted Star Culture and got Tang Shuang’s phone number from them. Li Haonan got the news immediately and was so excited that it was the great director Zhang Fei!
In order to prepare Tang Shuang, Li Haonan immediately wanted to call him to tell him, but the phone was always busy, so he sent a text message briefly explaining the matter, and then called back.
Tang Shuang was stunned, it was really Zhang Fei?!
Zhang Fei is one of the best directors in China. He has made many good movies and has a very high status in the Chinese film and television industry.
He knows the charm of "Hero". Rather than saying it is a novel, it is more appropriate to say that the script is more appropriate. The novel has a strong visual sense, just like scenes.
》Better adaptation.
When Tang Shuang originally chose this novel, the real purpose was to obtain the rights to adapt it for film and television. It is short in length, high in value, and can be cashed out quickly, which perfectly meets the requirements of late-stage cancer patients.
He threw out "Hero" like a fisherman throwing out bait, hoping that those who want to take the bait will take the bait.
With such a delicious bait, you don’t have to worry about not taking the bait. As the "Hero" novel is sold across the country, the situation is booming, which has proved to all potential big fish that this novel has market competitiveness and has withstood the test of the market.
, don’t worry about indigestion.
If Zhang Fei were to shoot "Hero", in terms of popularity and influence, there would be no one better than him. However, Tang Shuang also had doubts. Zhang Fei had never made an action movie before. He is famous at home and abroad for his realistic themes and his skills.
Tang Shuang has a specialization in the industry, and he doesn't know what will happen if a person who shoots realistic themes suddenly crosses over to make martial arts action movies.
It's a little early to think about this now. Maybe the other party is just interested. From being interested to putting it into practice, there are too many issues to consider.
Zhang Fei heard that Tang Shuang was at Tongji University in Guangdong Province, so to show his sincerity, he even rushed over now.
…
Under Zhao Yayi's disappointed eyes, Tang Shuang packed up and left, booked a private room in the school cafe, waited for Zhang Fei's arrival, and called Li Haonan back, who should know some information.
When Zhang Fei was in Shengjing, he accidentally saw "Hero". He thought it was very interesting at the time, so he bought a copy and went back to read it. The more he read, the more he felt that it was well written and particularly suitable for his taste. At that time, he came up with the idea of remaking it into a movie.
idea.
He is 50 years old this year. He has been studying realistic themes for most of his life, which has brought him great honor. Now that people of this age have become crazy and want to try some new themes.
At the same time, he also sees the trend in the film industry. Under the impact of Hollywood movies, Chinese-language films are accelerating towards large-scale production models. It will become increasingly difficult for pure art films to survive in China.
Although his previous films have brought him honors, none of his films have made it into the top 20 at the box office.
Transformation is imminent, and commercial films will be the mainstream in the future. In this process, he knows that he will definitely receive a lot of criticism and attacks, but this is the general trend, unless he retreats to retirement and is willing to be abandoned by the times.
Zhang Fei wants to make a commercial film, but it must be a commercial film with culture.
"Hero" is one of the transformation works he selected. There are two others, but "Hero" is the first choice. Only when this choice is completely impossible will he consider the other two.
Although "Hero" is very close to the script, it is not, so it still needs to be adapted before filming can begin.
He hurriedly asked to see Tang Shuang. The biggest purpose was to negotiate the film adaptation rights of "Hero". If he could negotiate, then the issue of screenwriter would be put on the table immediately.
The original author of the novel usually demands to have the right to control the screenwriting. Zhang Fei is not the kind of director who demands absolute control. The screenwriting can be considered to be handed over to the original author, but he must show enough ability and at least convince him, otherwise he will not be able to take this kind of control.
Big things are just a piece of cake.
Therefore, this meeting is a two-way choice, it depends on who can convince whom.
…
Tang Shuang finally met Zhang Fei. He was the one on TV, not a fake one, and his heart fell to the ground.
Zhang Fei has short gray-white hair, which shows that he is no longer young, but his hair stands on end and paired with a pair of bright eyes, the whole person looks energetic and sharp.
Tang Shuang first apologized to him. He thought the other party was a liar and hung up twice.
Zhang Fei smiled and expressed his understanding. After the two sat down and chatted for a while, they got to the point.
Tang Shuang does not doubt Zhang Fei's directorial ability. What he is worried about is how he, a great director with realistic themes, knows about martial arts and how he knows heroes. As long as he can answer these two questions, Tang Shuang will be satisfied.
, then he raised his hands to welcome.
Tang Shuang said: "Some people criticize "Heroes" for dispelling violence in its superficial form, but also dissolving the conflict between justice and evil in Chinese martial arts novels, integrating the martial arts world originally based on the conflict between good and evil into 'The King of Qin'
'The world has fundamentally obliterated the boundaries between assassins and courtiers, heroes and tyrants, causing the value system of Chinese martial arts novels to collapse!"
Zhang Fei was stunned. He didn't expect that Tang Shuang would reveal his shortcomings at the beginning. He smiled and said: "This is too serious. Some people like to blame people. They don't crush people to death, but also scare them.
Half dead."
Tang Shuang smiled and said nothing. Zhang Fei stared at him and laughed too. It was interesting. He realized that the author of the novel was testing him. If the answer did not satisfy the other party, there would be no need to continue the conversation.
.
Zhang Fei was deep in thought, but Tang Shuang didn't rush him. He sat quietly and added sugar to his coffee.
The scene in front of me was like the chess pavilion in "Hero". Tang Shuang and Zhang Fei were sitting in a leaky pavilion. Outside the pavilion, the raindrops were in lines and the rain was tinkling. Inside the pavilion, the two men were staring at the ancient nine-move chess. Tang Shuang was moving the white pieces.
