Chapter 660 Coincidence?

Xu Wen has actually heard of Liu Sanxian's "Emerald" for a long time.

After all, they are all in the circle, even if they haven't met, they know that Liu Sanxian's two works were very successful after they were adapted into movies.

At that time Xu Wen was still in the repertory theater, and he heard news about Liu Sanxian from time to time.

Moreover, the Repertory Theater also intended to purchase the copyright of his novels at that time, and planned to arrange a play for a tour, which was considered to be a wave of enthusiasm for movies.

However, due to the high price, this matter was finally settled.

This time, it was also because Zhang Min told him that he had bought Liu Sanxian's novel, so Xu Wen rushed from home to the company so specially.

The original intention was also to see how good Liu Sanxian's novels are.

Why is everyone flocking to it.

If it's good, Xu Wen doesn't mind adapting this novel as his first movie.

But after reading the content, Xu Wen lost some interest.

Because in his opinion, this "Emerald" has fallen into an old-fashioned cycle in many other aspects except that the story is slightly new.

Whether it's the characters or the connection of the plot, even if it's a dialogue between the characters, you can guess the second half of the sentence immediately after saying the first sentence.

Maybe it's not the script's problem either.

Everyone's favorite type is different.

But at least for Xu Wen, this type of script really didn't appeal to him.

At this time, Xu Wen also understood a truth.

It is good that online celebrity products are sometimes different.

If things end here, forget it.

But Xu Wen found another interesting novel in the remaining script.

"Running Stone".

At first Xu Wen didn't pay much attention to it, so he just casually flipped through it a few times.

But after Xu Wen glanced at the outline of the story, the expression management almost lost control.

Because in his opinion, this fan novel is completely a movie that Xu Wen watched in his previous life.

The movie tells the story of a handicraft factory in Shancheng that was on the verge of bankruptcy and found a priceless jadeite when it overturned the old factory building. Bao Shihong, the chief of the security department, launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle.

That's right!

That movie was called Crazy Stone.

At first Xu Wen was still a little uncertain, so after getting the novel home, Xu Wen read it again.

He was really sure that this fanfiction called "Running Stone" was really the script of "Crazy Stone".

Not only is the script the same, but the names of the characters, the plot of the story, and the context of the story in the play are all exactly the same.

At this moment, the feeling when he saw Huang Xun appeared in Xu Wen's mind again.

At the beginning, Huang Xun said that he went to the Tongfu Inn in his dream.

Xu Wen felt that Huang Xun probably traveled through time and space to the space where Xu Wen was in his previous life when he was dreaming, and experienced it briefly.

It's just that there is no actual evidence.

This kind of guessing is just a guess.

But when he saw "Running Stone" again this time, Xu Wen was a little uneasy.

Could it be that besides Huang Xun, someone else went to my previous life?
There are many doubts in Xu Wen's mind.

He couldn't wait to meet the author.

But before he got in touch, Zhang Min came to the door by himself.

And I told him several things as soon as I came.

And I also want to persuade him to make "Emerald".

In desperation, Xu Wen can only say that he thinks "Running Stone" is better than "Emerald".

Hearing Xu Wen's words, Zhang Min didn't react for a while.

It took a while before he spoke.

"Did I hear it wrong, or do you really think this fanfiction is better than the original?"

"You heard me right. I really think this novel is better than the original. I think that although it is a fanfiction, it is more attractive to me than the original in many ways. Maybe It's because the expectations are too high, so I don't plan to make "Emerald"."

Xu Wen nodded firmly, Zhang Min was stunned for a moment.

Looking at the "Emerald" in his hand, he sighed.

"But it took me a long time to buy this "Emerald". Would you like to consider it?"

"Forget it, I don't think about it. I believe there are still directors in our company who are willing to shoot "Jade". Doesn't that Huang Yu want "Jade"?"

Xu Wen waved his hand.

What he wants is crazy!
Zhang Min muttered inwardly.

Taking a deep breath, he asked with some uncertainty.

"You really don't want it? This is Liu Sanxian's novel. If it spreads that you don't want Liu Sanxian's novel but you can't put it down for a fanfiction, the outside world doesn't know what to say about you."

"Do you think I still care about the voices of the outside world? From the day I went to the repertory theater, I didn't take other people's opinions seriously."

Xu Wen chuckled, looking very free and unrestrained.

Zhang Min understood that Xu Wen was determined to make this fanfiction.

No matter how much I persuaded myself, it was useless.

Helpless, I had to answer Xu Wen.

"Okay, since you want to shoot this fanfiction, then you should think about the script carefully, and when you have a script and want to start filming, just tell me and I will form a team for you. "

This is the preferential treatment when the strength reaches a certain level.

If it is someone else, it may still need to review the script, wait for the budget, and so on.

But when it comes to Xu Wen, everything is unnecessary.

As long as Xu Wen wants to shoot, Zhang Min will set up a project for Xu Wen.

This is the advantage of having a successful work.

Xu Wen smiled.

"Don't worry about shooting, I plan to find the author of this fan-humanities first to chat."

"Okay, then I'll contact you."

Zhang Min nodded without any objection.

Before leaving, Zhang Min stopped and looked at Xu Wen.

"The thing about "The Hidden Corner""

"It's up to you."

"Row."

After saying this, Zhang Min completely left Xu Wen's house.

After Zhang Min left, Xu Wen came to the sofa and lay down, as if he had been exhausted.

I picked up "Running Stone" on the coffee table and began to read it.

Now Xu Wen has too many problems to figure out besides making movies.

Including how the author wrote this fanfiction.

Is it the same as Huang Xun, in a dream?
Or is it a traveler?
Xu Wen didn't know.

But what is certain is that this person must be more or less connected with his previous life.

After returning, Zhang Min acted quickly.

Within a few days, I told Xu Wen that I had already contacted the author of the fanfiction book, and had already made an appointment and a place to meet.

He didn't know whether he was excited or apprehensive.

But in short, the closer the day of meeting was, the more nervous Xu Wen became.

In the past, before Huang Xun happened, Xu Wen thought that he had lost too much connection with his previous life.

But the appearance of Huang Xun gave Xu Wen hope.

The same is true of "Crazy Stone" now.

So Xu Wen didn't know whether his excitement was for himself or for the stranger who was coming.

Or neither.

A few days later, Xu Wen appeared at the meeting place in a new dress.

After waiting for a while, Xu Wen saw a young man with a square head.

When the young man saw Xu Wen for the first time, he was a little surprised.

After that, he couldn't believe it.

"Excuse me, are you Director Xu Wen?"

After getting an affirmative answer, the whole person seemed very excited.

"Hello, Director Xu, my name is Liu Hao, and I'm the author of "Running Stone"."

Liu Hao looked like a shy fan.

He didn't dare to look at Xu Wen.

It made Xu Wen very speechless.

According to the information that Liu Hao himself said.

Liu Hao just graduated two years ago and is currently working as a late-night clerk in a 24-hour convenience store.

This "Running Stone" was written when he was on duty at night.

After a brief understanding, Xu Wen went straight to the topic.

"Liu Hao, I want to ask you something about this novel. Tell me about it. How did you come up with this story?"

"Actually, it's not thought of, it's a dream."

Liu Hao said after thinking about it.

Xu Wen was surprised.

Dreaming again? !
Liu Hao continued.

"I remember at that time, I was on duty late at night and was so sleepy that I dreamed of this story while I was half asleep and half awake."

"After waking up, I felt that the story in the dream was a bit similar to the book "Emerald", and I didn't take it seriously at first."

"It wasn't until I saw the "Emerald" fan art competition that I took it out and thought about testing the waters, and I won the prize unexpectedly."

"Although this novel can be sold as a normal novel after winning the award, I have never thought about it in my heart."

"Because I know that this is a fanfiction. If no one plays the genuine version, don't shoot fanfiction."

"But I didn't expect that this novel would actually be sold. It was you, Director Xu, who bought it."

Speaking of the latter, Liu Hao obviously had a hint of unbelievable joy.

It gives the feeling that this guy is still dreaming.

Xu Wen can actually understand Liu Hao's thoughts.

Because it was just a random thing at the beginning, but I didn't expect to win an award by accident, let alone the copyright being bought by someone, and the one who bought it was a well-known director.

Whoever it is, may not figure it out for a while.

But Xu Wen thought about Liu Hao's statement.

Because Liu Hao's statement is so similar to Huang Xun's.

Both of them were dreamed in sleep, Xu Wen's previous film and television works.

It's just that what Huang Xun dreamed about was "Wulin Biography".

And what Liu Hao dreamed about was "Crazy Stone".

Could it be said that "dream" is really a channel linking the two worlds?

There was a big question mark in Xu Wen's mind.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking.

"Have you ever dreamed about this before?"

"No, it was the first time I had such a dream at that time, and it was precisely because I was surprised that I would have such a dream that I was so impressed that I recorded it."

Liu Hao shook his head like a rattle.

Xu Wen frowned.

After that, I asked a few more questions, but Liu Hao's answers showed Xu Wen that the reason why he dreamed of "Crazy Stone" was purely accidental.

As for the others, I don't know anything about it.

A meeting did not allow Xu Wen to get any very useful information.

The only thing that is certain is that sleep is really a passage to another world?

Xu Wen also couldn't understand this point.

I have traveled through time for so long, and I have never dreamed of anything related to my previous life.

Occasionally, some dreams related to previous lives are also memories of what I have experienced.

It is the homesickness in the subconscious.

It's not like thinking about Huang Xun and Liu Hao, dreaming about something he has never seen before.

Maybe it was just a glimpse in a dream.

Some people dream, then record it.

Some people may also have a dream, but forget it when they wake up.

Say goodbye to Liu Hao and go home.

Xu Wen made himself a cup of tea.

The distant tea fragrance calmed down Xu Wen's restless heart.

Compared with the first time I heard Huang Xun's dream of "Wulin Biography".

He was considered mature, at least he didn't feel uneasy after hearing Huang Xun's incident for the first time.

He has figured it out by now.

Some things cannot be avoided by oneself, and things that are destined cannot be avoided by oneself.

Since God sent this script over by fate, Xu Wen clasped his hands and followed it up.

People are always habitually worried about things that haven't happened.

But the most important thing is to live in the moment.

Taking a deep breath, Xu Wen seemed extremely open-minded at this moment.

After drinking the tea in his hand, Xu Wen turned around and walked into the study, and began to write the script of "Crazy Stone".

As his first work in the film industry.

Xu Wen thinks "Crazy Stone" is a good choice.

As a movie with a cost of only 300 million, it created a score of 2350 million that year.

This caused a great sensation back then.

It is also the most obvious one in which small-budget movies turned against the wind.

Frequently cited as examples.

Among them, this movie is not only a counterattack at the box office, but also popular with the lead actor Huang Bo and director Ning Hao.

And the whole story revolves around "Emerald", which is full of absurd humor.

It is also a rare masterpiece.

Xu Wen's choice of his first film work is to choose between a balance between box office and word of mouth.

I didn't blindly choose high-grossing movies, nor did I look for high-reputation literary films.

I don't know if it's a coincidence or fate, Xu Wensi thought about it, and felt that "Crazy Stone" was indeed quite suitable for him.

So Xu Wen didn't hesitate and started writing the script.

He mainly writes an outline, and the specific detailed case is handed over to the ghostwriter to write.

At the same time, he also sent a message to Zhang Min, saying that he was writing the script.

Ask the company to sign the contract with Liu Hao.

Seeing this message, Zhang Min sighed.

She knew it.

At this point, recovery is useless.

After thinking about it, she began to ask the people in the company to contact Liu Hao.

At the same time, she also called Huang Yu.

"Huang Yu, you know, come to my office in the morning!"
