Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth

Chapter 185 Chapter 185: Two lines of progress

"A Dog's Purpose" was divided into two different versions by Shanhe.

Qu Ling is reviewing the first draft of the novel for the Chinese version, while Shanhe is writing the story outline for the M version.

In the M country version of "A Dog's Purpose", the dog's name is Marley, and he is also reborn four times and five times as a dog.

In the early 1960s, Marley was born in a small town in Alabama, but he died before he could grow up.

After rebirth, Marley turned into a Labrador puppy. When he was half-year-old, he was pulled off the farm and sold. Due to the farmer's negligence, he escaped from the farm but was locked in a car.

He was rescued by the protagonist and his mother when he was still a boy and joined the family. The protagonist named him Marley.

Like the Chinese version, Marley accompanied the male protagonist through the entire growth period, and also helped the male protagonist find his first love, and also experienced various changes in the family.

Including the male protagonist's football dream, his father's unemployment and alcoholism, the breakdown of the family, the male protagonist's dream shattered due to injury, and the bitter breakup of his first love.

The boy has become a man. He left this small town and began to find his own mission in life.

Marley died in a small town. At his last moment, the hero rushed back to the small town from the big city. He saw his lifelong partner.

The third period of life is the same as the Chinese version. Marley turned into a police dog and accompanied his partner through life and death, and finally gave his life to rescue his partner.

Marley was reborn again and spent his fourth period of life with a black girl. He accompanied her from poverty to learning and struggle, and spent more than ten years of hard work to become a middle-class person. He passed away peacefully in the arms of the black girl. .

The last time Marley was reborn as a shepherd dog and was raised in a yard by two unconventional lovers.

It misses its partner even more. Where is the boy at this time?

The young lovers soon gave Marley his freedom, but they abandoned him. Marley excitedly ran to the farm where he remembered growing up with his companions.

Marley found the boy who belonged to him, even though he had become a lonely middle-aged man living alone.

Although his partner did not recognize him, Marley relied on his understanding of his partner to quickly accompany him again. He felt the change in his partner. The man no longer had a direction and mission in life, and was just living every day mechanically. one day.

Marley found his first love and the color of life for his partner.

On a sunny afternoon, two friends who grew up together got to know each other in each other's unique games. Marley completed his mission and found the meaning of life!

Shanhe gave the English story outline that he wrote in two days to Bruckheimer.

Bruckheimer held a few pages of manuscript paper and read for more than an hour. Then he patted the armrest of the sofa, stood up with an excited expression, walked to Shan He, and said to him: "Just shoot like this, Qiu, you are really awesome." An angel can always get guidance from God. This story belongs to me. Don’t worry, I’ll keep the investment share for you. I’ll help you fight for the share of the script with Disney. You won’t be disappointed!”

Shanhe responded with a smile: "Jerry, you are still on vacation. What, are you ready to return to Hollywood after the vacation?"

"My journey to China has just begun, and I don't want it to end so soon. After the preliminary cooperation with the Quba project was finalized today, I plan to visit the most famous Mogao Grottoes in China. It is said that it is a holy land of Buddhism. I I heard about it when I was in country M. I think you must have been blessed by the gods of China. I have to go and worship. Sometimes gods can decide everything!" Bruckheimer replied intoxicated.

Shanhe was shocked by Bruckheimer's travel plan, "Jerry, you are going to Dunhuang and the Hexi Corridor. Wow, this is indeed a good idea. If I hadn't made a plan, I would have gone there with you. There are The essence of Chinese civilization, but the journey will be long, are you mentally prepared?"

"Of course, I have hired a tour guide and I will leave in the next two days. In fact, I would rather go to XZ, but the tour guide's suggestion made me change my mind. It seems unrealistic to go to XZ. I am not an explorer!" Bullock Hemmer replied.

"Jerry, we really hit it off. You actually realized my idea first. But be careful on the road. The climate and environment in the northwest are very different from those in the capital. Safety first!"

"I see!"

Two days later, Bruckheimer flew out of the capital with his tour guide and set off for Chang'an, the first stop on his northwest journey.

Shanhe left the follow-up work of "A Dog's Purpose" to Qu Ling. The planning and copywriting of "If National Treasure Could Talk" have been basically completed, and dormitory 201 has begun to prepare the shooting plan.

June in Beijing has already entered the scorching summer, and Beijing Film Academy's dormitory does not have air conditioning. The two fans that Shanhe brought from home were shaking their heads in the dormitory all the time.

The six members of dormitory 201 were all shirtless and gathered around the table. Shanhe flipped through the plan and said, "We are all inexperienced. The shooting plan has been made. It will definitely have to be adjusted when the time comes. I will call a few more." A senior brother will guide us, there should be no problem!"

"Shanhe, how much will it cost for us to shoot these episodes this time? We feel a little sorry for you to bear the responsibility alone. What I mean is that we all work together. It doesn't matter how much it is, as long as everyone's wishes are met." Bai Yuxia was standing aside. spoke.

"What you said makes sense. I have several thousand yuan in savings. I have received the New Year's money since childhood. I will withdraw it tomorrow."

"Old Ning, you can do it. I've saved so much, I guess it's only a thousand dollars!"

"I have nothing to lose. Can I pay for my living expenses this month? Just don't let me go hungry, brothers!"

Shanhe looked at his roommates with a smile and introduced them: "We already have two investors this time, one is Ma Ye and the other is Chuhe Film and Television. The initial budget is a production cost of 10,000 yuan per episode. Our dormitory 20% of the shares are based on scripts and production. If everyone is willing to pay, they are considered investors. Those who have no money also have a share. If there is a profit, everyone will receive dividends."

"'If National Treasure Could Talk' is considered a project, right?"

"Invest, I must invest, this is investing in my future!"

"Ten thousand yuan per episode, is it too much or too little? It feels like it's a little less!"

For a time, the roommates were talking loudly, filling the entire dormitory.

The news that freshman dormitory 201 was preparing to shoot a documentary spread throughout the male dormitory within two days.

Dormitory 201 has been bustling with people these past two days, with an endless stream of students and seniors coming to inquire curiously, and more and more people are applying to join for free.

The six of them went from being elated at the beginning to feeling a little anxious now.

This matter soon reached the ears of the teachers in the directing department.

In the conference room of the Directing Department classroom, several teachers were chatting about rumors of documentaries between meetings.

"Shan He is indeed very capable. He has been working on it since his freshman year. Not to mention the selection of materials is quite good. I heard that it is a documentary about antiques, which is quite interesting!"

"You can't compare Shanhe to ordinary students. He is well-known and has a wide network of contacts. He has the resources to make movies, let alone documentaries. Isn't the Chuhe Film and Television he owns just to serve him!"

"To be honest, among the students in this class, except for Shanhe, there is really no outstanding talent. Originally, I was not very optimistic about their professional future. Now that there is a catfish like Shanhe, it is really hard to say. Look at it. Opportunities and resources are placed in front of them, and they are not even a little bit better than other students."

"So, the source of students is very important. I heard that next year the Level 0 Acting Department will also recruit a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. She is born to be fed by God, and the conditions at home are very good. She just accepted Zhang Ailing's request. In a word, it’s better to become famous early!”

The two teachers at level 0, Yang Lin and Wang Hongwei, were listening to the discussion and looked at each other. It was time to call Shan He over to ask questions and help him where necessary.

Shanhe soon received Yang Lin's call and walked into the department chair's office with the script copy and shooting plan.

"Shanhe, here you go, sit down first! We were just discussing your documentary shooting topic, why don't you kids come to the teacher for help!" Xie Xiaojing said, looking at Shanhe with a smile.

Seeing that Xie Xiaojing and the two teachers were there, Shanhe quickly handed over the script copy and shooting plan in his hand, "We want to prepare everything before showing it to the teachers. We can't be empty-handed and just talk without practicing!" "

Yang Lin took the three bound booklets from Shanhe's hand and said with a smile: "It seems that you have done the preliminary preparations and the shooting plan has been written down. Lao Xie, Xiao Wang, let's help them take a look and inspect it." Let’s take a look at your study progress in the past year.”

The three of them each had a booklet and started flipping through it without saying a word.

About an hour later, the three teachers finished reading the three booklets. Wang Hongwei was the first to speak, "The copywriting is great, and the script planning is also clear. It's just that the shooting of documentaries and feature films is different. The content is different." Adjustments are very flexible, and your preliminary interviews and location scouting are not part of the plan, so you still have to prepare in advance.”

Yang Lin nodded and spoke, "Red Wei is right. Your planning and copywriting are indeed novel, and the name is very in line with the style of young people. If it can produce the effect you imagined, this film will It will be excellent, but your shooting plan is a bit rough. You have not considered the flexibility of documentary shooting. Documentaries are films that record facts, and they often change according to changes in the interviewees or recording subjects. However, you The theme you chose is very suitable, and I am very optimistic about your attempt!"

After listening to the comments of the two teachers, Shanhe thought for a while and responded: "Thank you teachers for your guidance and suggestions. We hope to find deficiencies and problems during the actual shooting process. We will have to ask the teachers for more guidance and help!"

"How do you get your funds? Do you contribute the money personally? The school has certain subsidies for filming of current students. You can apply!" Xie Xiaojing asked.

"We have already found the investment. Fuguan Museum and Chuhe Film and Television have decided to invest in our film. The school's resources should be reserved for seniors who need them more!" Shanhe replied to Xie Xiaojing.

Xie Xiaojing nodded, "In this case, all the school can do is help you recommend the film to a few more TV stations. However, when the film is released, we will have to review it first. I hope you can make a complete film." Higher documentary series coming out.”

"It's already a big help for the school to help recommend it. Documentaries are difficult to promote. If there is no profit in the first season, our subsequent plans will be aborted."

"Don't worry, as long as your film quality is above the line, your relationship with the school will be enough!"

When Shanhe walked out of the department chair's office, he had a relaxed smile on his face. Beijing Film Academy helped them solve the promotion problem, which was a great thing.

If more TV stations broadcast it, the audience will be much wider, the impact will be greater, and it will have a greater role in promoting the filming of the second and third seasons.

After all, they are making a documentary about a national treasure. Without access to the national treasure, the documentary will be impossible. If the first season is successful, subsequent filming will have a wider selection of materials.

"If National Treasure Could Talk" is in smooth preparation, and the progress of "A Dog's Purpose" is not slow either.

Qu Ling quickly completed the preliminary review, marked his opinions and directions, and sent it to Shanhe.

She immediately rushed back to the Magic City and started preparations and warm-up work for the release of the new book.

Sprout Publishing House has become familiar with Shanhe's new books.

Information about Shanhe's new book quickly spread through various channels.

The broadcast time of "Under the Zhengyang Gate" on CCTV has been set. It will be broadcast at the end of June. CCTV One has already started pre-promotion of the TV series.

Two pieces of information about Shanhe novels came together, and news and discussions spread quickly on the Internet.

Many forums and chat rooms have marked Shan He's new book and adapted TV series as top topics.

Book fans and melon-eating people began to gossip.

"Shan He is the most prolific author in the country. One book after another. "Under the Zhengyang Gate" has just been adapted into a TV series, and a new book is about to be released over there. It's so prolific!"

"It's not bad to be high-yield. As long as the quality is maintained, I will definitely support it. To be honest, "Under the Zhengyang Family" is not my cup of tea. The writing is good and my dad likes it. I still like the genre of "Bottom Hot Girl" Yes, it’s exciting to watch, and it’s also interesting!”

"It is said that the new book is about a dog. I am so curious about what kinds of things a dog can write..."

"Is what is said above true? Don't deceive the public. Shanhe's new book is about pet dogs? My family has a Labrador, the same breed as Shanhe!"

"Shanhe also has a Labrador. It's real or fake. It seems that it was inspired by the dog at home. I also like dogs, but it's a pity that it's so inconvenient to raise a dog in the city!"

"My family has a pug..."

"I have a border collie at home..."

"Haha, I have a husky at home, and my house is broken down once a week on average..."

The building tilted rapidly, but the news that Shanhe was going to release a new book spread more and more widely, and the anticipation among book fans became stronger and stronger.

In mid-June, Shanhe completed the revision of the second draft of "A Dog's Purpose", which was also the final draft.

Compared with previous works, the new book has many fewer changes. Qu Ling's evaluation of "A Dog's Purpose" is that the writing style is smooth, the subject matter is novel, the reading threshold is low, and the plot is warm and touching. The writing style of Shanhe has begun to take shape, and it is suitable for both refined and popular tastes. The goal is one step forward.
