Reborn Bao Guowei, I really didn’t want to be a great writer!

Chapter 267 Letter? American drama master Eugene O'Neill!

"Greetings from across the ocean, your friend Eugene O'Neill."

"When I was creating, I accidentally got your work from a friend. After reading it all night, I had a lot of feelings. A work like "The Godfather" should not be what the outside world thinks it is, but what it is. A superficial novel about gangsters, violence, and power and sex trade. Mr. Bao Guowei. I read a lot about drama from "The Godfather", so I wrote this letter to discuss it with you. "

As the founder of American drama, Eugene O'Neill's letters are obviously extraordinary.

"See the many things about drama?"

In the process of creation, Bao Guowei obviously made conscious reference to many later film and television works, such as Bruce Lee's movies and the trilogy of "The Godfather". Based on this, he created a work that belongs to Bao Guowei alone. "godfather".

Obviously this kind of creation is still very effective.

Eugene O'Neill's letter is evidence of this.

"Finally someone understands me!"

Bao Guowei couldn't help but sigh. When he wrote "The Godfather", of course he still had a certain degree of ambition.

A kind of frustration of not being recognized for your hard work.

No one wants to speak highly of it.

It made him feel that his efforts were recognized.

Readers are of course non-committal about "The Godfather", but they are not sure whether "The Godfather" has great literary value, or even what kind of contribution it has to literature, art or drama.

In Bao Guowei's view, the discussion on the significance of drama presented in the article is enough to be recorded in the history books of the development of modern drama.

This is the first reaction of many writers when they see popular literature.

For many writers, popular literature is like street food stalls, not worthy of elegance, and is not worth mentioning compared with the elegant "meals" of traditional literature.

But the feedback from the market is obviously unsatisfactory.

"Those are articles that only rough villagers would read."

Such a reaction made Bao Guowei feel extremely aggrieved while reaping huge sales and profits.

"When I read "The Godfather" carefully, I understood that the reason why this novel shocks people and is loved by thousands of readers is not only because of its wonderful story, but also because people can get life out of it. What you can't get in modern people has primitive emotions, ambitions and motivations, and they also have weaknesses that have been inherited from ancient times, but now modern people are learning extremely slowly how to control them.
And "The Godfather" provides exactly this kind of learning in the story."

I even feel that if I participate in the evaluation of "The Godfather" and do not criticize it, it will lose its literary style.

For Bao Guowei, this can be said to be the most exciting comment so far.

But now it's completely different. On the other side of the ocean, there is actually a big boss who recognizes him, and he is even a master-level figure in the American theater industry.

Even Mr. Lin Yutang did not comment too much on Bao Guowei's "The Godfather".

"The novel "The Godfather" gave me a deeper understanding of drama. What is drama? Drama is not just life, it is the essence and expression of life. It should also be the embodiment of the boundaries of fantasy. Life is a struggle, or It can be an often unsuccessful struggle.”

This made him excited.

An eloquent letter, written extremely brilliantly, in Bao Guowei's opinion, it can even be compared to a paper.

No one knows what he has paid to maintain a high-intensity creation for a long time!
There are not only movie scripts, but also drama scripts, as well as submissions from various parties for the next work.

If it weren't for the "database" of later generations and his super high hand speed, he would really have died suddenly.

In order to maintain his creative energy, Bao Guowei still remains a child even now! Today’s reviews show that it’s all worth it!
Therefore, women will only affect the progress of one's own success and fame.

Bao Guowei admires another colleague who is able to breed horses everywhere while continuing to create.

It is worth mentioning that Mr. Eugene O'Neill was once a very active socialist.

During this period, many Western artists actually tended to the left, before a certain Western red behemoth fell.

This forced Bao Guowei to carefully evaluate the possibility of turning it into Davarisi.

"Master, you seem very happy. Why does this foreigner praise you?"

Cao Yanhai was confused and saw Bao Guowei smiling non-stop. He couldn't understand English and was wandering around in curiosity.

Hearing Cao Yanhai's words, Bao Guowei was a little unhappy, and he couldn't help but say with a straight face.

"Superficial! How can this be called praise? This is called academic discussion!"

"Academic discussion?" Cao Yanhai felt that his master was lying to him again, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he couldn't help but ask. "Master, please tell me what is written in it!"

Being recognized by Eugene O'Neill gave Bao Guowei a reliance in the United States to a large extent.

Bao Guowei didn't know how to explain this to Cao Yanhai. He just looked at the bottom of the letter and couldn't help but smile.

"It seems that our Mr. Eugene O'Neill has also developed a certain interest in "The Godfather". The letter is not only to compliment me, but also to adapt "The Godfather"."

"Adapted into a drama?" Cao Yanhai was a little surprised.

It turns out that Yankees is here to adapt a play?
However, being able to send letters to Bao Guowei's home is enough to show how powerful this American is.

“Wouldn’t it be possible to make a lot of money again?”

The light in Cao Yanhai's eyes showed that writing articles was now an extremely profitable business in his eyes.

The reason why he had this illusion was because of the royalties Bao Guowei continued to receive from abroad. Although Bao Guowei did not mention it, it was based on Cao Yanhai's own estimation.

My master's current net worth, including some businesses donated by foreigners and Du Yuesheng, as well as the factory jointly established with the Rong family, is at least hundreds of thousands.

It can be said that although Bao Guowei still looks like a rebellious young man on the surface, he is actually one of the top young rich men in Shanghai.

Bao Guowei didn't take it seriously. In fact, he had no concept of money now. He bent his index finger and knocked Cao Yanhai on the head, saying angrily.

"You just know money. Are we still short of money now? Have you forgotten the most important thing?"

"What's the most important thing?" Cao Yanhai was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses and said. "Yes, yes, master, you once said that we should deceive the foreigners into tricking us into doing things for us."

"Vulgar! This is called peaceful evolution!"

Bao Guowei had a smile on his face.

Eugene O'Neill wants to adapt a play. With such a good thing, of course Bao Guowei will not refuse.

However, in order to make the other party's adaptation conform to his original "plot", Bao Guowei had to write a reply letter to let Mr. Eugene O'Neill understand.
