Reborn Hong Kong's Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 90 Adaptation
As soon as Su Cheng returned to Tengyue Entertainment Company, as his temporary secretary, Lin Yun, the receptionist who stayed from Tengyue Hotel, hurriedly said: "Boss, this is a greeting letter from Mr. Cha."

At first glance, it turned out to be a "card" similar to the "invitation letter" of later generations.There are only a few words in it, "Master Su is sincerely invited to gather at Qingyuan Tea House", signed, Cha Liangyong.

No wonder Lin Yun was a little nervous, Mr. Jin Yong, the master of martial arts!Ordinary people will not fall into his eyes.

Shaking his head, Su Cheng asked, "Did you say the specific time?"

"9:[-] tomorrow morning."

After waving his hand and letting Lin Yun go out, Su Cheng began to ponder why Jin Yong was looking for him.It seems that the two did not meet!If anything, it was between him and Run Run Shaw.Wouldn't it be for "his sixth uncle" to ask the teacher to blame him?
Don't think about it too much, anyway, you will know when you meet.Then, he started to get busy with his own affairs.

……

The next day, Qingyuan Teahouse.

When Su Cheng entered, Jin Yong was already drinking tea slowly inside. Seeing this, Su Cheng was stunned. No wonder he would write those "noble characters", the original materials in real life!

After approaching, Su Cheng said respectfully: "Mr. Cha, hello! I'm Su Cheng."

"Oh, it's Master Su! Please sit down!"

After sitting down suspiciously, Su Cheng asked in puzzlement, "I don't know why Mr. Cha wants to call me master?"

Jin Yong smiled, took out a newspaper, and motioned him to take a look.

It turned out to be the newly released "Naishuihan" serialized on "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly" founded by myself!

In an instant, Su Cheng remembered one thing. When Jin Yong was being interviewed, he said with a gesture of appreciation: "When you read a book, read Wen Rui'an."

The work mentioned is precisely one of the masterpieces, "The Cold Against the Water".It seems that Jin Dashen has a soft spot for this book!
With an embarrassing smile, Su Cheng said, "I don't dare to take the name of a master. In front of you, a master of martial arts, I'm just making a fuss."

Jin Yong was also very comfortable, and then said the purpose of coming: "I wonder if Boss Su is willing to hand over this book to our "Ming Pao" for serialization, and even for later publication and printing?"

"Oh?" This was quite unexpected.After all, logically speaking, Jin Yong should know that "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly" is a newspaper under his name!The current sales volume has steadily surpassed that of Ming Pao.It is definitely impossible to change newspapers.As for publishing physical books, there is no need to hand them over to the other party!
Seemingly seeing Su Cheng's doubts, Jin Yong said bluntly: "Boss Su may not be clear. In addition to publishing "Ming Pao" in Hong Kong, I also have contacts in "Ta Kung Pao". Occasionally, I also write articles for it. That copy Newspapers, but they will be spread to the mainland.”

Hearing this, Su Cheng's eyes flashed.That's right!For the current mainland, novels such as "Looking for the Qin Dynasty" and "Mythology" are not suitable for open serial publication.But the martial arts like "The Cold Against the Water" is different.

In addition, Su Cheng also understood that Jin Yong himself has a very deep relationship in the Mainland.I remember that when Bruce Lee was alive, he showed the film he made to Mao Weiren to watch, and he got endless admiration.It was also like this that he and Run Run Shaw became "year-old friends".Call Run Run Shaw "Sixth Uncle".The other party called him "Xiao Cha".

Since then, most of Jin Yong's martial arts dramas have been handed over to Shaw Brothers and TVB for adaptation.And that era was at the end of the first half of 1, more than a year ago.

While thinking about it, Su Cheng asked: "Mr. Cha, it's no problem to leave this matter to you. However, you also know that I have a Tengyue TV station. Although it may compete with Uncle Six, once you give Uncle Six If the works that have not yet been adapted let us do it, at least in the shortest time, most of your works will be known to the world."

"You want the right to adapt?" Jin Yong was also very surprised.

After thinking about it, why not: "I'm afraid this is not possible."

Su Cheng said with a smile: "What do you think of this? Whether it is Sixth Uncle or us Tengyue, if you adapt and film one of your works, after 2 years, it can be handed over to another company to adapt and broadcast again. In this way, for the Wireless, Tengyue, and even you are the most beneficial, how about it?"

Fearing that Jin Yong would still hesitate, Su Cheng gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Cha, we only need the right to adapt the TV series for Teng Yue. As for the movies, we will give it all to Uncle Six."

"This..." After a long silence, Jin Yong said, "It's still you who can fool me."

He sighed again and said, "Well, I'll think about this matter again, and I'll discuss it with Uncle Liu. I'll let you know when there's news."

"Then trouble Mr. Cha." Su Cheng said with a smile: "I also trouble you to worry about the matter of "Nai Shui Han."

"Hey, you, you..." In just such a short moment, Jin Yong became interested in the young man in front of him.Otherwise, how could it be so easy to talk?
……

After walking out of the teahouse, Su Cheng went to Tengyue TV Station.

When Le Yiling finished the work at hand, Su Cheng called her over and said, "I just met with Mr. Jin Yong, and I plan to adapt his martial arts works into TV dramas. There will be news about this in the near future .Which drama do you think we should shoot first?"

Hearing this, Le Yiling was stunned for a long time before she said, "The Legend of Condor Heroes! The best way to capture the hearts of the audience."

The current "The Legend of Condor Heroes" has not been adapted into a TV series by TVB.The original version, also in 83, had Andy Lau and Idy Chan playing the male and female protagonists.This one from later generations and Gu Tianle's is considered to be the most classic adaptation.

"anything else?"

"The Legend of the Condor Heroes, right? Many people like Huang Rong."

Shaking his head, Su Cheng said: "The original adaptation by Jiayi was pretty good. Now there are still many people who regard Michelle as Huang Rong!"

But in his heart, his thought is, can Huang Rong without Weng Meiling have a soul?

Although I don't know much about the actress Weng Meiling, more than 9% of the people who like to watch "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" in later generations watched the 83 version played by her and Huang Rihua.Classic timeless ah!

Glancing at Le Yiling, who was not familiar with martial arts dramas, Su Cheng began to ponder on his own. Apart from "The Legend of Condor Heroes", what he most wanted to adapt were "Tian Long Ba Bu" and "Yi Tian Shou Long Ji". up.What I appreciate most is Hu Jun's version of "The Eight Parts of the Dragon" and "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" starring Su Youpeng and Jia Jingwen.

Among them, "Tian Long Ba Bu" has not yet been adapted.However, "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" was adapted more than ten years ago, and then, in 78, a TV series starring Zheng Shaoqiu and Wang Mingquan was also broadcast.

All in all, the ones that can be discussed steadily are "The Legend of Condor Heroes" and "Dragon and Ba Bu", which have not yet been adapted. "Yi Tian Tu Long Ji" hope is not small.Su Cheng didn't feel much about Jin Yong's favorite "The Deer and Ding Tale".And this work began to be adapted as early as 77, and Wei Xiaobao was played by Wen Xueer, who had joined Tengyue TV.

After sorting out his thoughts, Su Cheng said: "During this period of time, you can arrange for all the artists in the stage to take a few sets of photos in ancient costumes. I will choose and finally choose suitable actors to participate in the performance. Remember, you can't stand There, there must be some actions in martial arts dramas, such as swinging swords and fierce fighting."

"Okay, boss, I will arrange it!" After all, this is the first adaptation of Jin Yong's martial arts drama by Tengyue TV, so it is natural to pay attention to it.Not sure, many "popular actors" will be promoted at once.
