Chapter 900 Discussion on "Shu Mountain" (23)

"The Legend of Shushan Swordsman"...

Xu Ke has filmed two editions. In 83, "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman", starring Zheng Shaoqiu, Brigitte Lin, and Yuen Biao, invited the Hollywood "Star Wars" team to do special effects shots.

Although it won a box office of 1587 million, the cost was too high and it ended at a loss.

However, "New Shushan Swordsman" has accumulated a large number of local special effects talents for Hong Kong. Later, "A Chinese Ghost Story" used an upward shooting technique to present the grotesque world of Liaozhai in a mysterious and dazzling way: in addition to the soul-stirring feelings of people and ghosts, it was built around Lanruo Temple. The gods and monsters system is even more amazing, and the oriental Taoist elements appearing in the monster fighting method are extremely imaginative.

In 01, he made "The Legend of Shushan" again, starring Ekin Cheng, Louis Koo, and Cecilia Cheung. It cost a sky-high price of 1 million and earned 3 million at the box office. It ended in a dismal again...

So ahead of its time!

In the past, I felt incomprehensible, but now, the world of Shushan Mountain is full of fairy spirit, and the artistic conception is far away.

Thousands of miles in the sky, sword qi criss-crossing!
So, Old Freak Xu is a new generation of mountain-creating monsters—dare to spend more than [-] million dollars to do this!

In addition, "Legend of Shushan" is far better than the previous 90s in terms of persuasion and scene rendering, and the production level comparable to international standards also gives special effects people a lot of room to display.

Those who did special effects for "The Legend of Shushan" later became unique special effects talents. For example, Xu An later made "Painted Skin 2" and "Legend of the Gods"; ", and even took orders from "Iron Man 2" and "Transformers 3".

"The Legend of Shushan Swordsman? Are you sure?"

Hearing what Shen Changlin said, Old Monster Xu immediately regained his spirits. He has a complex for "Shushan"!
"Of course I'm sure...Let's replay, what's the biggest problem with the first two "Shushan"?"

"It's not enough to tell a story..."

"On the one hand, the story is not good. On the other hand, "The Legend of the Swordsman of Shushan" was popular in the 20s, and many viewers are not familiar with it..."

After a pause, Shen Changlin then added: "The most important point, what is the purpose of the struggle between good and evil?"

The struggle between good and evil in "The Legend of Shushan" is completely for the sake of struggle, and the whole thing in it is killing, killing, fighting, and dying...

Why fight?

do not know!
In fact, the story of the original "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is very messy, and the characters are mostly instrumental characters, carrying narrative functions, and are limited by the author's very traditional values, either black or white, good or evil, especially the villains in the early stage, standard configuration Vicious and lustful, as long as it is a villain, the man is a cockroach, and the woman is a slut...

In the later stage, the characters finally became more diverse. The early green-robed patriarch and demon corpse Gu Chen were pure villains, with sores on the top of the head and pus oozing from the soles of the feet. They had no motivation or purpose, just pure evil!

The most powerful thing about "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman" is the unrestrained imagination in the combat system.

Shushan's combat system is composed of flying sword + divine thunder + magic weapon (talisman) + formation.

There were many descriptions of flying swords in the novels of gods and demons before Shushan, but they were often described as simple as "speaking a sword light hundreds of feet long". However, in "Shushan", flying swords are standard equipment, not only Sword lights have different lengths and colors, different levels of power, and different additional attributes.

There is even a combination of two swords - Ziying Sword and Qingsuo Sword. Such a groundbreaking setting, especially in the early stage, Feijian can almost be said to be the representative of combat power. enemy.

As for the setting of the magic weapon, it is even more brain-opening to fly out of the sky!

The magic weapon in "Shu Mountain" is really rich!
The author Huanzhu Louzhu keeps conceiving magic weapons with fantastic ideas, and the detailed description of the function, power and battle process of the magic weapons has reached the realm where the ancients have not been seen before and the comers will not be seen again!

Therefore, Mr. Ye Hongsheng wrote "The World's No. [-] Wonderful Book <Shushan Swordsman Biography>"...

Also, don't watch "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman"...

This book is so annoying!

Gu Long was criticized for being anticlimactic, and the owner of Huanzhu didn't even count as a tiger's head, but at most a rat's head!

If you have an idea, start digging a hole, write a hundred thousand and eighty thousand and then come up with an idea, and then start digging a hole...

The plot keeps forking. For example, Guo Jing and Yang Guo are chatting here: "Guoer, where did you get this Dugu Nine Swords?" Yang Guo was halfway through talking, when suddenly Linghu Chong came in and heard: "Dugu Nine Swords? I will too." Then Guo Jing ignored Yang Guo, and heard Linghu Chong Balabala say that just now when he talked about blood-sucking Dafa, Xu Zhu suddenly came over and said, I know this, and then Guo Jing started to listen to Xuzhu Balabala say how he accidentally broke Zhenlong Chess Game learned Beiming magic skills...

A third person is suddenly inserted into a story while it is being told, and then it switches to the storyline of the third person.

This style of narration is very annoying...

Storyteller style!
One event led to another, and the new event was led to a further place by a person, so the beginning of the book wrote about the Qing Dynasty, and later it was written about the Song Dynasty...

Very angry to see!

As for why the hole was not filled?
Probably because of "Returning Pearls is not allowed to continue poisoning"...

……

Xu Ke heard this, and immediately asked: "Then what is the purpose of the struggle between the pros and cons?"

"I think it may be that the Shushan School, as the orthodox world, must follow the time and block the vitality of the world..."

"what?"

Shen Changlin explained: "Whether it's the righteous way or the evil heretics, cultivation is all for the purpose of ascending to the fairy world, but the fairy world doesn't want immortals to appear in the world, so it is proposed to block the vitality of heaven and earth flowing into the world, Shushan..."

Xu Ke nodded excitedly: "In this way, there will be a basis for the dispute between good and evil!"

Shen Changlin nodded: "Yes, the logic of the main line is now clear."

"But if you set it up like this, the position of Shushan will be very embarrassing..."

"Can you add additional settings? For example, the upper realm originally planned to block it immediately. The real Changmei of Shushan thought that it was not easy for monks in the human world to practice, so he deliberately fought for 2000 years... But the villain didn't know, thinking it was a conspiracy by Shushan? As long as Shushan was defeated... "

"Correct!"

Xu Ke couldn't sit still: "Can I read the script?"

Now, it was Shen Changlin's turn to be embarrassed: "I haven't started writing yet... This is just a plan. If you agree, I'll let them start development right away..."

"...Okay, I definitely agree!"

After a pause, he continued: "According to your expectations, it is going to be a series, so where do you plan to start with the first one?"

Shen Changlin thought for a while, and then asked: "...What do you think of Deng Yin?"

Deng Yin is Ding Yin in "New Shushan Swordsman", he can be regarded as a relatively out-of-the-box villain...

According to the original book, Deng Yin once worshiped Yu Daoren, Yu Sanzi, as his teacher together with Master Changmei. Later, he violated the canon and was expelled from the teacher's school.Later, he got a secret book "Blood Nerve" from the Devil's Cult, so he changed his name to Blood God Son!

You can add a setting, why break the canon, he thinks that human monks have the right to pursue ascension, the decent idea is wrong!

Against the sky...

Xu Ke nodded immediately: "Okay... where is the character?"

"...Let's finish writing the script first, how about the tentative protagonist Li Yingqiong?"

"Row!"

……

This matter is tentatively settled, Xu Ke agrees to direct, the main line of the script is complete, and the rest is to fill in the chapters!

Screenwriter... It is best to find a web writer.

It's not that I don't like traditional screenwriters, but "Shushan" has 500 million words. Except for the "Shushan" fanfiction, few of them have read it carefully...

Just click Niang Xianxia category to have the label of 'Shushan'.

Find them all, have a whole creative meeting together, and then let professional screenwriters write the script...

Shen Changlin doesn't write—he hasn't read "The Legend of Shushan Swordsman"...

If you don't understand something, don't touch it!

In this regard, Shen Changlin is very professional!
Then, the news spread that Shen Changlin joined Xu Ke to fight "Shushan" again...
