I make a thriller, it's God chasing and feeding

Chapter 320 [Difficulty of Adaptation]

"What's up with him?"

The man in the peaked hat looked at the cowering man in astonishment.

What Li Tianran looked like when he went out is what he looks like now.

His ability can restore all the injuries on his body to their original state, as if... time has frozen on him. Even if he is injured and the blood splashes, after a period of time, the flesh and blood will be as conscious as if they were conscious. When he returns to his body, not even a scar will be left.

But now Li Tianran's demeanor has changed significantly from before he went out.

His face no longer had the indifferent expression, but a look of fear and horror.

This is the first time the man in the peaked hat has seen this guy show such an attitude.

You know, his ability to be almost 'immortal', coupled with his special hobby, it can be said that he may be the most bold and fearless person in the world.

A person who will not die and can still feel comfortable and happy about pain, what should he be afraid of?

But now the man in the peaked hat saw such emotions on his face.

Feeling the heavy weight on his shoulders, Li Tianran's frightened expression became even worse. Drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead unconsciously, and he said tremblingly, "Yes, yes, I am happy, I am happy."

This place is quite lively.

Next to her, Liu Huiyun was learning humbly.

"Xiao Ming, you are not allowed to eat. It is not good to eat too many chicken wings at this time."

"Such as camera sense, movement, physical expression, etc. We have to be more serious about our work."

"This is Xiaoyi's. He has a big appetite, so take more."

In the past, when he returned home, he would always be with Zhang Xueming, oh, and A Yong.

"Although the young man is insane, he still has a brain."

From time to time, they also discussed what they saw, which were social topics and international news.

"Probably because I'm so happy."

"Ha, look at this expert, they say that everyone is living longer now, and the retirement age can be extended appropriately..."

"Besides, there's no end to learning. It's always good to learn more."

Just as Lu Zhengyi sat down, he heard this sentence unexpectedly, and hesitantly replied, "We are already making preparations, about...it will take about half a month to start filming. I originally planned that the time is almost over, but I will tell you again, when the filming begins , try to come back once or twice a month.”

They didn't know it until they compared it before, but after living together during this period, they realized how unpalatable their own cooking was.

"You should be preparing for your new play, right?"

"Look, the retirement age is going to be raised again."

"You have to be serious about filming. What does it mean to come back once or twice a month..."

"Mom, how do you make these croquettes?" Liu Huiyun stood in the kitchen, following Hu Chan. "I tried it myself before. After frying, the meat was very dry."

It happened that I took advantage of this period of time to start studying.

Li Tianran nodded quickly and accepted it humbly, "Yes, yes, yes."

Although I have been back for a few days, every time I look at the atmosphere, I feel like I am in a trance.

Next to them, Lu Yiyong and Zhang Chuanxing, who were discussing the news, raised their heads.

……

"There is also a skill involved in making these meatballs. Vegetarian meatballs are different from meatballs."

I cooked the porridge and prepared a lot of side dishes to go with it. There were quite a lot of varieties.

"Now I have an opportunity to put my voluntary work outside, which is quite worthwhile."

Hu Chan explained patiently.

Lu Zhengyi patted his shoulder with satisfaction, "During this period, you should take a good look at the books I told you. Although you are only working as a stand-in, you still need to know some of the most basic qualities of an actor."

Lu Zhengyi smiled and turned his head, patting the shoulder of the person next to him with his big hand, "After all, working on the sewing machine inside is quite boring."

"It will not be easy for young people to retire in the future."

As for what happened between them, although the man in the peaked hat was curious, he did not ask.

At the dinner table, Lu Yiyong and Zhang Chuanxing were holding paper newspapers and the other was holding a mobile phone.

Lu Yiyong frowned and was about to say something.

Lu Zhengyi had just finished his run and came down from the shower upstairs. What he saw was this scene.

"Okay, let's get back to work then."

The morning at Lu Zhengyi's house was much more lively after returning this time.

While having breakfast, Zhang Xueming suddenly mentioned something.

But this time, in addition to them, there were two other parents living there. The four old people got up early in the morning, and Lu Zhengyi, who was out for a run, was not allowed to buy breakfast by the way, so he had to make it at home.

"These chicken wings are marinated by our own family. They are clean and safe to eat."

In fact, they are not the only ones in this family.

Soon, the two got on the water truck again and left with a greeting.

But mid-sentence, he stopped.

"You have to come back and spend more time with Xueming."

He changed the subject.

Zhang Chuanxing, who was about to say something opposite, nodded and closed his open mouth again.

Yes, filming is indeed important. As a director, Lu Yiyong does not agree with this behavior.

But the future grandson and granddaughter are more important. As a grandfather, he naturally hopes that he will come back to spend more time with his daughter-in-law.

"Dad, how can I come back once or twice a month." Zhang Xueming spoke up first and replied to Lu Yiyong, "That is an overseas project. It takes a whole day to fly back and forth. The whole crew is waiting for him to be the director." ?"

Then, she turned her attention to Lu Zhengyi again and asked:

"So you're going to keep this entire project a secret from me?"

"Assistant Wang is asked to hand over everything to the company without saying a word to me."

"And you didn't even tell me about the copyright negotiations with Wagong, the cartoonist called, Oh, Ito, right? Let me tell you, if the Ministry of Justice hadn't called me and asked, How come the copyright negotiation issue has never been settled? I didn’t even know you had already started it!”

In the past, when one of Lu Zhengyi's movies was released to a similar stage, he would start preparations for the next work.

But this time, because of the fact that The Grudge 2 was banned in the Republic of China, there has been no movement.

She thought he was going to stop for a few days and reconsider what to make for his next movie.

But I didn’t expect that everyone had already started secretly making preparations!

Lu Zhengyi drank the porridge with the freshly fried and hot fried chicken wings, and replied helplessly:

"No need. They can handle this kind of thing. There is no need for you, the vice president, to intervene."

"Don't worry about copyright negotiations. I have made an appointment to go over to Wagonguni to meet Ito. I plan to call the actor I am interested in and let him take a look."

"If he is an artist who has certain pursuits for his works, I think he will never refuse the use of copyright as long as he meets people."

The content he selected this time is different from his previous works.

The work "Tomie" also exists in this world, and the creator is also called Ito. In other words, if he wants to shoot related works, he needs to obtain the consent of the original author first.

"Xiao Yi is right."

Zhang Chuanxing interjected, "Xue Ming, you are also the vice president after all. Don't do what you did when you were a supervisor. You have to take on everything. You must learn to assign the work below to your subordinates and train some talented people." subordinate."

"It didn't matter before. Now that you're pregnant, you haven't shown your pregnancy yet, and your reaction hasn't been big yet."

"After a while, your body will react. Not only will your body be unable to bear it, but you will also have to worry about whether the company's affairs have been handled well. This is not okay."

"Dad, I'm already doing it."

Zhang Xueming helplessly replied to her father, "I have worked for so many years, and I know who in the company can shoulder the responsibility."

"I leave other projects to them, and I only ask a few questions when I think of them occasionally."

"But I must be interested in Ayi's project."

Zhang Chuanxing stopped talking. It was his uncle's project and it was normal for his daughter to have snacks.

"Tomie?"

After dealing with the old one, Zhang Xueming recalled for a while, "So, your new work still plans to focus on the Warring States?"

"And strictly speaking, this comic...isn't considered a horror genre."

"But it just boils down to the thriller genre."

Lu Zhengyi's previous works are all related to "ghost".

After all, when people mention horror movies, their first reaction is definitely ghost movies.

Even the 'double pupils' also involves supernatural elements.

But Tomie's film has nothing to do with ghosts, but it can be considered a thriller.

After all, Ito is a cartoonist famous for horror and thriller themes.

"No, my main shooting and screening location this time is planned to be in the Southern Dynasties."

Lu Zhengyi shook his head, "The Chinese side has rejected our film sources, so there is no need to test anything."

"Furthermore, Fu Jiang's work has a certain degree of popularity in Dongzhou, even in the Tang Dynasty. Even if you haven't seen the work, you have heard of the name 'Fu Jiang', so you don't have to just Confined to Heguo as the home court.”

"As for why I chose this film, it is because it is a work that not only contains the darkness of human nature, but also shows the bloody and violent thriller that is more acceptable to the Western market. It is very suitable for our current situation."

At this point, he paused, "But don't read comics just to understand my film. The content there is not suitable for your current situation."

"And I don't plan to completely refer to the comic works. After all, if a movie is completely based on the comic content, it may only be a ten-minute short film."

"I plan to obtain the original author's consent before adapting it based on actual circumstances."

Zhang Xueming nodded. She did not interfere in the creation and shooting of the work.

But now there is another director at this dinner table.

"adaptation……"

Lu Yiyong hesitated, "You brat, are you sure? This is not an easy thing."

"I dare not say absolutely, let's try it first."

Lu Zhengyi did not appear too confident.

He felt too confident, and the father would probably say something shocking.

As a director, Lu Zhengyi certainly knows that this is not an easy task, and this is another new level of creative difficulty.

In the past, none of the works he shot were original in this world. It was the first time for everyone to see them, and they all found them fresh, scary, and delicious.

But this time the filming was based on original works, which was a great test of the crew's ability.

How many comics and novels, once it is announced that they will be adapted into movies or TV series, regardless of whether the work is completed or not, they will be ridiculed immediately, with comments such as 'ruining the original work', 'irritating the eyes', 'ruining the image', and 'please ask for a pair' Eyes that have not seen...'

Things like that.

This kind of thing happens both at home and abroad.

After all, this kind of content that is only in words and pictures will leave enough room for the audience's imagination.

For many classic works, compared to the content on paper, when the audience sees the work, the corresponding picture that emerges in their minds is what makes it successful.

But if these contents are actually filmed and inconsistent with their inner image, they will be ridiculed by people all of a sudden.

Some directors and production teams are purely out to make money, so naturally they don't care about this. They only care about how popular the original work is and whether it can attract enough traffic.

But some directors who cherish feathers are well aware of the difficulty of this kind of adaptation, and they don't want to touch it.

I was afraid that the film would be ruined and my reputation would be ruined.

"Try?"

Lu Yiyong frowned, "You can't try this randomly, this..."

However, even though Lu Zhengyi modestly said "try it", he was still not satisfied and was about to say something.

"okay."

But before he finished speaking, Liu Huiyun came out from the kitchen with dishes, "You've been listening in the kitchen for a long time, you old guy knows how to hit people, right?"

"Our son is much better than you now. Movies have been filmed abroad."

"He's not a kid anymore, he's over 20 years old! He's getting married! He's about to be a father. He knows very well whether he's sure about what he's going to do or not. Does he still need you to keep talking around him? "

Lu Yiyong became angry when he was told this in front of his children.

"Lao Zhang, you too."

But soon, Hu Chan also came out and scolded Zhang Chuanxing, "How old is my daughter? She can't tell the difference."

"That's because Xiaoyi feels sorry for her and doesn't want her to do too many things."

"Do you really think that your daughter can't do anything after working for so many years?"

They also sat down.

Zhang Chuanxing chuckled and said nothing.

Lu Yiyong, who was about to be angry, looked at him and paused. The anger in his throat did not come out and was suppressed again.

The in-laws were scolded, and they could lead them there with a smile. If I couldn't, wouldn't it look very out of place?

Next to them, Lu Zhengyi and Zhang Xueming looked at each other silently, and they could see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Living with my parents is like this.

It will definitely be more lively, and some housework can also be done by everyone, making it more relaxed.

But inevitably, this situation sometimes occurs.

It is said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is a common family conflict, but compared with mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, when the husband and wife reach middle age, they are also prone to some conflicts and often quarrel.

In this situation, as a child caught in the middle, it is actually quite difficult to handle.
