In the beginning, I just wanted to make money

Jin Yong cherishes his works very much!

Anyway, I just don’t want anyone to adapt it.

I even gave out 100,000 yuan - as long as you don’t change my plot, I can personally reward you with 100,000 yuan!

In the original time and space, the crew of "The Condor Shooting" received 100,000 yuan...

Then why can Yu Zheng change it at will?

Because... Yu Zheng bought the adaptation rights from a third party, not directly from Jin Yong!

For example, for "Swordsman", the film and television adaptation rights belong to China Audio-Visual, and China Audio-Visual seeks cooperation with Yu Zheng. From a procedural point of view, Yu Zheng only needs to negotiate with China, so of course he can modify it at will.

Even if he went to visit Jin Yong, it was just a gimmick to build momentum for publicity after it was confirmed.

Copyright transactions for film and television dramas are somewhat complicated, and it is not uncommon for copyrights to be resold and bought multiple times.

As for whose hands it will eventually fall into, no one can control or predict it, not even the author of the original work.

In fact, there is no direct authorizing or authorized relationship between Yu Zheng, his studio and Jin Yong.

Mr. Jin Yong has no control over his works, but Qiong Yao is different...

Qiong Yao’s works are all produced by herself!

Her requirement is that no word in the lines is allowed to be changed, not even a modal particle!

In fact, this is a question of big power and small power. If you are like Qiong Yao and find a producer as your husband, who can attract investment, the TV station will buy TV dramas instead of watching celebrities, and watch Qiong Yao. Of course, no one can get over it. you!

…

"Mr. Jin Yong was dissatisfied with the beginning of "Swordsman" and believed that Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying should not have appeared so early, leading to changes in the storyline.

But in our opinion, the film and television series cannot be made according to the novel, because the first chapters are all about Lin Pingzhi’s experiences. The male protagonist Linghu Chong does not appear until Chapter 4, and the heroine Ren Yingying does not appear until Chapter 13. The story advances too slowly. Got it! "

"Mr. Jin Yong asked me, 'Zhuge Liang in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" appeared later. How could it be okay?'"

"However, with "The Condor", the adaptation copyright fee is no longer one yuan, and it is completely based on the market price..."

"Market price?"

Shi Hang whispered: "It's almost the standard payment of 20,000 per episode."

"An episode of twenty thousand..."

Oops...this is too cheap!

An episode costs 20,000 yuan, but "The Condor" only costs 800,000 yuan?

Comparing it to later Internet novels, those adaptation rights cost tens of millions...

Hey, how do I know this?

Shen Xudong suddenly thought of something: "I have read a report before, about the feud between Xu Ke and Jin Yong!"

"How to say?"

"Mr. Jin Yong was very dissatisfied with Xu Ke's "The Swordsman: The Undefeated East" and refused to hand over the adaptation rights to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" to him... He also said that Xu Ke didn't understand martial arts!"

"Xu doesn't understand martial arts?"

"He just cares about other people's second creation..."

This meeting can be described as a very pleasant conversation...

It’s just that the script writing work for “The Condor Shooting” has been completed!

And filming has already started!

Teacher Huang is a little embarrassed...

It doesn't matter, at most it's unlikely that Shen Xudong will join the writing team of "The Condor"...

It doesn’t affect the overall situation!

However, Zhang Jizhong suggested: "When "The Condor" is broadcast, you can write some articles like you reviewed "Swordsman"..."

"Can I comment on Li Anpeng?"

"...I mean to comment on the role...do you think Li Anpeng is not suitable to play Guo Jing?"

Shen Xudong shook his head, and then said: "I think Linghu Chong and Guo Jing are two people with completely opposite personalities. After playing Linghu Chong, I will play Guo Jing again..."

"What's the matter? Ren Xianqi has played Yang Guo, Linghu Chong, and Chu Liuxiang!"

Do you want to compare like this?

How popular is Brother Qi now?

Let’s put it this way, Jin Yong and Gu Long are the most popular heroes, and he has played three of them!

Moreover, the beauty ensemble of "Chu Liuxiang" is composed of: Ruby Lin, Christine Yang, Gigi Lai, Anita Yuen, Michelle Wan, Zhang Qian, Yang Rui, Chen Farong, Lin Xilei...

Including the male supporting actors are also top notch: Ekin Cheng, Sun Yaowei, Zhang Weijian, Li Yaoxiang, Chen Xiaodong, Ng Mengtat.

In terms of movies, the co-directors are Ma Chucheng, Johnnie To, Yip Kam-hung, Sylvia Chang...

Why should Li Anpeng be compared with him?

Based on his incompetence?

Of course, Shen Xudong is not an idiot. It is impossible to say this directly...

"In line with the plot... make some comments..."

Shen Xudong understood instantly, and gave an example: "...For example, why do the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan have to compete with Qiu Chuji?"

"Yes!" Zhang Jizhong nodded, and then asked: "Why?"

"The Seven Monsters of Jiangnan are the leaders of Jiangnan Jianghu. A powerful sect leader from the north went to the south to bully fellow villagers, that is, Master Jiaomu of Yunqi Temple in Lin'an Prefecture... Of course he has to come forward!"

Zhang Jizhong nodded: "Well, this is a good angle..."

"There is a lot to write about "The Condor Shooting", I will go back and sort it out..."

…

Although I didn't get a screenwriting position, writing film and television reviews... wasn't bad!

Writing in conjunction with the broadcast of film and television dramas is also part of the promotion. Although Zhang Jizhong didn't mention it, he should be given some extra money...

However, Senior Brother Shi Hang told Shen Xudong, 'If you want to earn a living as a screenwriter, the best way is to have an original work...'

Including Teacher Huang also said, 'Only the screenwriter of the original work can be regarded as the screenwriter's own work! ’

Interpret Jin Yong, adapt Jin Yong, that is also Jin Yong...

You can’t count it as your own!

One day Jin Yong got upset and refused to let him interpret it...

What can you do?

There still has to be original work!

Shen Xudong once wrote a martial arts novel called "The Demon Sect Marches East". The story is very simple, that is, the Demon Sect prepares to annex the Central Plains martial arts world, and then the male protagonist Yun Feiyang struggles to resist...

The story is based on Jin Yong's new novel "The Blood Demon King"...

That's right, it's Jin Yongxin!

Let me ask you a question, how can you offend Jin Yong’s book fans with one sentence?

"My favorite novels by Jin Yong are "Nine Yins and Nine Yangs" and "The Great Hero Feng Qingyang"..."

If that's not enough, let me add, "Nine Yins and Nine Yangs" has more pornographic content than Jin Yong's other novels combined. Jin Yong really knew martial arts! ’

In fact, "Witch Jiang Hu" is well written, but it is Quan Yong's work...

There are also "The Romantic Old Naughty Boy", "The Little Heroine Guo Xiang", "Beijing Beggar Hong Qigong" and so on...

The books I read at that time were relatively miscellaneous, and the one that impressed me most was "Shocking Knife Beauty Grace" I read in junior high school, which was full of all kinds of indescribable descriptions...

Pull it back...

At this stage, martial arts novels are quite popular...

Driven by "Legends of Modern and Ancient Times: Martial Arts Edition", Feng Ge, Shi Weihan, Xiao Zhen, including Cang Yue, Bu Feiyan, and Shen Yingying all began to emerge.

In terms of influence, it is not weaker than the fantasy and fairy novels of later generations...

Therefore, if you want to be original, your first choice must be martial arts!

What should I write about?

"The Demon Sect Marches East" will definitely be useless...

The plot of that novel is too simple. Even the reference book, Jin Yong's new "Blood Demon Lord", did not sell well, let alone "The Demon Religion Goes East"!

Forget it, go back and discuss it with your three brothers...
