Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Chapter 211 From today on, I will stop writing martial arts novels!

this?

This was naturally the case in the original time and space, but in this time and space martial arts are still quite popular, and of course they may eventually decline.

Regarding this issue, Yu Dongqing does not want to discuss it in depth because he is not a martial arts novelist.

After pondering for a while, he said: "Any type of popular novels will experience rise and peak, and of course it will inevitably decline. I think martial arts novels will be the same, and may be gradually replaced by new popular novel types in the future. Of course, they haven't yet. At that stage, there are still many readers who read martial arts novels.”

After hearing what Yu Dongqing said, everyone nodded, but Jin Long seemed to want to get to the bottom of it: "Mr. Yu, what kind of popular novels do you think martial arts novels will be replaced by?"

"Mr. Jin, you are a famous novelist. I am just a musician and a layman when it comes to novels. You should answer this question, right?" Yu Dongqing asked with a smile.

"Mr. Yu, you are not a layman." At this time, Zhou Fanming intervened: "You have a lot of research on martial arts. Otherwise, how could you be able to design such a free and elegant martial arts scene as a martial arts instructor?"

"Mr. Yu, I want to hear what you, a layman, think." Jin Long asked sincerely.

Seeing Xia Wenxi and Liu Guoliang looking at him, Yu Dongqing could only say: "I think it should be a fairy novel."

"Xianxia novels?" Jin Long was surprised when he heard this.

"Yes, fairy novels."

"Becoming an immortal?" Jin Long asked.

"You can say that. In ancient times, we had novels such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Huainanzi", "The Thousand-Character Essay", and "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio", many of which involved contents such as immortals and demons. If martial arts were combined with By learning elements, you can create a new literary genre." Yu Dongqing said.

"It seems that Mr. Yu has done a lot of research on this. Can you explain it in detail?" Jin Long looked like he was asking for advice humbly.

Research?

There's no way to talk about it at all. I just read some classic fairy tale novels in the original time and space.

Yu Dongqing thought for a while and had to say: "Theory is out of the question... How about I talk about some of my ideas."

Yu Dongqing took a sip of tea and spoke slowly.

"Zhang Xiaofan, an ordinary boy in Caomiao Village, met the eminent monk Puzhi by chance. Before his death, Puzhi taught Xiaofan the true Dharma "Brahma Prajna" that is not taught outside the Tianyin Temple, hoping that Zhang Xiaofan can realize his dual cultivation of Buddhism and Taoism. , the dream of penetrating life and death..."

Yu Dongqing eloquently tells the story of a young man cultivating immortality.

It turns out that one of the classic time and space fairy novels is "Zhu Xian"!

In fact, Yu Dongqing had read this novel a long time ago, and he had forgotten many of the plots. He only remembered the general outline of the story, and the story was confusing and full of loopholes.

But in the eyes of Jinlong, he was astonished.

Qingyun Sect, Tianyin Temple, Demon Cult, monster beasts, spiritual beasts...such a huge world view and those weird martial arts opened his eyes.

What shocked him even more were the various realms of cultivation: Qi induction, Qi training, vitality... What shocked him even more was that there was such a strict power system.

"Zhu Xian" is very long, with millions of words. Of course, Yu Dongqing couldn't finish it in such a short time. He didn't bother to talk more, so he just picked out the key points, which took almost twenty minutes. My mouth went dry at the end, so I picked up the tea cup and took a long sip.

Jin Long listened silently, and finally sighed: "After listening to your words, I realized that there is a frog in the well... If such a novel really comes out, who will go to see martial arts? That's all... From today on, I will never write again. Write martial arts novels! Let’s go!” After saying that, Jin Long stood up and strode away.

"Mr. Kim!"

Yu Dongqing shouted quickly, feeling a little embarrassed.

Peat, why is it like this?

"Mr. Yu, you don't need to pay attention to him, he just has this temper." Zhou Fanming said with a smile: "Martial arts novels are his lifeblood, how could he give up so easily? He just doesn't want to write, and his readers don't agree! Of course this is not the case. Well, kill his arrogance!"

"Fan Ming is right. In fact, this is fine. Isn't there a saying that listening to what you have to say is better than studying for ten years? I think Jin Long can benefit from it." Xia Wenxi also said.

"Mr. Yu, are you interested in writing what you just said into a script or novel? Our Universal TV will purchase the film and television adaptation rights and make it into a TV series." Zhou Fanming suddenly said.

Written into a novel?

Just kill me…….

If we follow the original work, it will be nearly 2 million words!

Yu Dongqing smiled and shook his head and said that he was just thinking wildly and had no intention of writing a book.

Zhou Fanming was a little disappointed when he heard it, but he still said that if Mr. Yu is really interested in writing it one day, he must contact him and he will spend a lot of money to buy the copyright.

Yu Dongqing had no choice but to agree.

"Hey, Fan Ming, you, Jin Long and Mr. Yu have been chatting about the novel for so long, and we haven't gotten to the point yet." Liu Guoliang, who had been silent just now, interrupted.

Main topic?

Isn’t the main topic about drinking tea?

Yu Dongqing looked at him puzzled.

Liu Guoliang explained with a smile: "Mr. Yu, you also know that a good piece of music in Xiangjiang usually has Mandarin and Cantonese lyrics. The Mandarin version of "Pearl of the Orient" you wrote yesterday, Mr. Yu, has magnificent lyrics. Is there a Cantonese version of the lyrics?”

this?

Actually there is.

In the original time and space, the song "Pearl of the Orient" did have Cantonese lyrics, written by Zheng Guojiang, a famous lyricist in Hong Kong.

Zheng Guojiang is also very famous in Hong Kong. His representative works include Teresa Teng's "A Walk on the Road of Life", Leslie Cheung's "The Wind Keeps Blowing", Anita Mui's "The Years Go By", etc.

However, the lyrics of this Cantonese version are not as famous as the Mandarin version lyrics written by Luo Dayou himself, so many mainlanders are not aware of it.

Now Liu Guoliang suddenly raised this question, Yu Dongqing had an idea: "Mr. Liu, I haven't written the Cantonese lyrics of this song yet. You are a famous lyricist in Xiangjiang, especially good at Cantonese. How about you help fill in a Cantonese lyrics?"

"Me? Mr. Yu, your Cantonese lyrics are so good. I admire you very much for the song "Alang's Love Song". I would like you to fill it in yourself." Liu Guoliang was very humble.

"Mr. Liu, you are so humble. I think you can write well." Yu Dongqing said.

The two declined each other, but Xia Wenxi couldn't stand it and interrupted: "Guoliang, just listen to Mr. Yu's suggestion. You can write the Cantonese version of this song."

After speaking, he looked at Yu Dongqing: "Mr. Yu used to mainly write Mandarin songs, with some lyrics in Cantonese. How about just writing a Cantonese song?"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Yu, did you promise a female singer to write a Cantonese song for her?" Zhou Fanming suddenly interrupted.

"Is it for that girl Wu Jingqi?" Xia Wenxi asked curiously.

"No, no, Wu Jingqi is ready to go to the mainland for development. What he wants is Mr. Yu's Mandarin song, a singer named Lu Wanyu, from Yadong Records." Zhou Fanming explained.

How does he know?

Yu Dongqing was surprised.
