Chapter 70
There is a thing called cicadas when you are in a good mood, and noise when you are in a bad mood.

Tang Deyan is in a very bad mood now, and feels that the cicadas outside are getting more and more annoying.

He closed the script in his hand, threw it on the table, glared at the man opposite him who was drinking tea leisurely, and said, "Old Zheng! Look at what you sent here. You can let me choose the script, but you can't feed it to me." Shit!"

The sound woke up Wang Shacong, who was lying soundly asleep on the table: "Huh? What's the matter, what are you eating?"

Looking at his sleepy eyes, Tang Deyan slapped himself on the forehead heavily, and said the words that appeared more and more in his mouth recently: "You are a sinner!"

"Mr. Tang, please be calm and don't be impatient. Choosing a script is a gold digging in the gravel, so you have to be calm."

The man who speaks slowly is called Zheng Jianfeng. After obtaining a film degree in Canada, he joined ATV and soon turned to film. In his early years, he worked as an assistant director for Chen Musheng, Chen Kexin, Tang Jili, Tan Jiaming, Jackie Chan, etc. He has rich experience in film and television production.

Three days ago, a person who claimed to be the secretary of the chairman of Wanda Group approached him, drew a grand blueprint for Wanda's layout in the film and television industry, and promised him a position as an executive of Wanda Films in the future and a high salary.

This is also the beginning of Tang Deyan's nightmare!
On the first day he took office, Zheng Jianfeng brought dozens of scripts to Tang Deyan's courtyard, and he pretended to discuss the selection of scripts with the president, art director, and the company's external spokesperson.

Seeing so many "books", the company's external spokesperson immediately excused Deyun Club to be busy with work and slipped away!He never went to Tang Deyan's house again.

Art director Tang Deyan didn't care, thinking, I'm a bookworm who has read countless articles since I started from 15 years ago, would Tang Deyan be afraid that you have dozens of scripts?

Facts have proved that he is still young, has not tested enough poisons, and has not yet grown into a real Shennong!In just three days, he couldn't bear to read these broken scripts with stinky and long names!

"Zheng Jianfeng, don't confuse me. You know the quality of these scripts you brought. We are not short of money, so why can't we just buy the copyright of a popular novel and adapt it directly? If not, just find a director and see if he has any good scripts in his hand. Just invest in him and shoot them."

"That's right, why don't we just buy ready-made ones?" Wang Sicong finally regained consciousness and agreed.

Zheng Jianfeng brought so many rubbish scripts here because he wanted to show off Tang Deyan. In his opinion, this little star didn't understand anything, and just because he got on the boss's son's thigh, he could dictate in the company. He had to let him know the depth of the entertainment industry, not everyone could grasp it.

As for how to deal with these plans proposed by Tang Deyan, he had already prepared a draft in his mind.

"Mr. Tang, although our company is strong, we are still newbies in the industry. Unless we have Wanda's name, we won't be able to invite those famous directors. And those small directors, with all due respect, the scripts in most people's hands are worse than those you read.

In the same way, even if we buy the copyrights of famous works, we can't shoot well with the strength of those street directors. "

It’s okay to fool others with these words. Tang Deyan read a lot of entertainment novels in his previous life, and immediately found a loophole: "I don't believe that there is any big director in the world who would think too much investment! Besides, a director who is not famous may not be without strength! Also, if the famous works are not good, will you choose online novels?"

Zheng Jianfeng saw that Tang Deyan's thinking was quite sharp, so he looked up to him a little bit, but everything was under control.

"Big directors will naturally not refuse investment, but we have no channels and no resources. All we can do is invest money. In this case, the project is still someone else's project, and we don't even have the right to speak.

Unknown directors naturally have strengths, but just like scripts, we have to pick them out ourselves.

As for the adaptation of online novels to film and television dramas, I have never been in touch with this aspect, so maybe I can consider it. "

Hearing what he said, Tang Deyan felt a little hesitant.It should be true that only investment has no right to speak. In his previous life, he had seen a case where someone invested millions of dollars to make a movie and only received [-] dividends after the movie made a profit.

He does know one director who is not famous but has strength, Ning Hao!But where was Ning Hao before filming "Crazy Stone"?What are you doing?He didn't know these things, so he could only look for them slowly.

As for the adaptation of online novels, he thought about the recent popular books "The Story of Charm", "Journey in the Wind", "Sou Shen Ji" and "Zi Chuan". . .These background settings are too grand and unsuitable for filming. "Zhu Xian" is good, you can buy the copyright first, but with the current development level of the film industry, it may not be able to shoot well.

For example, those successful adaptation cases in later generations, such as Ghost Blowing the Light, Startling Every Step, Wandering Earth, etc. The original work has not yet appeared, and I have no ability to write it! ~ I really envy those seniors who know everything after time travel!
After much deliberation, I couldn't come up with a good solution, so I simply said, "This won't work, that won't work, but what kind of movie are we suitable for?"

"Based on my many years of experience in the industry, it is best to choose a genre with simple character relationships and uncomplicated scenes for the first step of a new company. Youth films are very good, but still the same sentence, you must first choose a good script." Zheng Jianfeng returned to the source of the topic.

"The relationship between the characters is simple, the scene is not complicated, a youth movie?" Tang Deyan said with a flash of inspiration: "Yes!"

"What's the matter?" Wang Shicong didn't know why.

"I have an idea! What else can I have!" Tang Deyan said angrily: "Old Zheng, since we choose a film with simple characters and uncomplicated scenes, then we don't have to bother to search for scripts. Why don't we just write one ourselves?"

"Write it yourself?" Zheng Jianfeng was surprised, not knowing why the other party suddenly had this idea.

"That's right, write it yourself! Then, go back and find some screenwriters. If you want a stronger pen, bring them to me tomorrow. I tell the story, and they make it into a script! Isn't that all right?"

"That's right, the boss said that he was born in cross talk, and he's good at telling stories." Wang Sicong has been disliked a lot these days, no matter what happens, he will arrange flattery first.

Zheng Jianfeng sighed in his heart, what kind of person is too lazy to make such a showy operation, tell the story by himself, and find someone to expand it into a script?

But since the boss has agreed, let them hit the wall first and forget it!

 Early bird gets the worm
