Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 599 Sleeping God's Greatest Enemy
As soon as Wenner's follow-up news comes out, it means that it is very likely that everyone will see two movies based on Zhang Zhong's science fiction novels within this year.

This is of course good news for sci-fi fans.

But the detective novel fans who saw the news felt pantothenic like they just picked up a lemon.

When the "Ten Little Indian Boys" movie came out and sold well, detective fiction fans couldn't be happier.

But now that things are changing and stars are changing, other sci-fi movies are coming from behind, and there will be two at once.

Many detective novel fans began to appeal to Zhang Zhong's whispers, hoping that Zhang Zhong would not favor one another and make more suspenseful reasoning movies.

It's been more than two years since Murder on the Orient Express came out, so it should have been a while ago.

How about filming "The Devotion of Suspect X", "The Snowman", "Tragedy on the Nile", "The Mysterious Case at Styles Manor" and "After School".

Among the voices calling for the shooting of mystery novels, there are also some other voices.

[Stop reasoning about science fiction every day, is Zhang Zhong just a writer of science fiction and mystery novels? 】

[Yeah, yeah, I want to watch "The Shining" the most, it's so exciting. 】

【Shining +1】

【Shining +10086】

[I hope to see the movie version of Border Town, but who can Cui Cui find to play it? 】

[Why don't we crowdfund and invest in Zhang's remake of "Border Town". 】

[Then why not shoot "Sophie's World". 】

[I feel that Sophie's world is not easy to shoot. 】

[What are you thinking, crowdfunding investment... Does Zhang Zhong need your crowdfunding? 】

[Yeah, the net worth is tens of billions, maybe it will be over [-] billions after this year. I heard that "Do Bionics Dream of Electric Sheep?" "was shared with Wenner. 】

[Maybe the film will lose money in the end, and Zhang Zhong's value will continue to drop. 】

[Yeah, if this movie and "The Last Starfish" both fail, then Zhang Zhong should feel at ease to adapt his own detective novels in the future. 】

[I said, are you detective novel fans crazy? The author of this curse can say it. 】

[Don't worry, even if the movie fails, Zhang Zhong won't lose money. No matter what, the movie can boost the sales of the original book, and the royalties will be full by then. 】

……

In fact, many of Zhang Zhong's novels have recently been discussing film and television adaptations, including "The Shining", "The Wandering Sea Ball", and "The Devotion of Suspect X".

The negotiation of "The Shining" has come to an end, and the negotiating object is Wenner Entertainment Company.

The conditions given by Wenner this time are not bad, but the director they invited this time is very attractive.

Wenner promised that if the film and television adaptation rights were given to them, they would promise to invite Kuli Kli to direct the film.

Kuli Kli is a well-known master of horror and thrillers. He has focused on shooting thrillers for more than 30 years and has countless excellent works under his name.

There is a saying in North America: Kuli Kli is the worst enemy of the god of sleep, because his movies scare countless people into sleepless nights.

There is another sentence: American children have a warm sun in their childhood, and that sun is Bob Linton.And there is an indelible shadow under this sun, and the name of this shadow is Kuli Kli.

Bob Linton is an extremely brilliant TV character. In the more than 6000 episodes of the TV series "Bob's Life", in each episode, the actor Bob Linton has to do a good deed, by the way, sprinkle chicken soup .

In the United States, Bob Linton is the most heart-warming existence.

And putting Kuli Kli on the opposite side also underscores the extent of his thriller horror.

No life is complete without Bob's Chicken Soup, but no life is complete without being frightened by Kuli Kli.

Negotiations for "The Shining" are almost done, that is, some details have not been negotiated, but they are all details that will not affect the final result. It depends on who makes concessions first.

Unlike "The Shining", "Wandering Sea Ball" is not just negotiating with one company.

There are three competing companies, Qinhuai Entertainment, Mengpaila Entertainment, and Stefak Entertainment.

Qinhuai Entertainment is a local Chinese company, while Montpela and Stefak are American companies.

The competition has just begun, and it will take some time to get the result as to who will win.

The progress of "The Devotion of Suspect X" is even slower. Now dozens of companies are interested in the adaptation of this book, and it is still in the preliminary screening stage.

……

Zhang Zhong's recent life is very simple, he spends most of his time on the suspense mystery novel he conceived before, and takes Peng Peng to Wu Ziyun's class on weekends.

On this day, Zhang Zhong and Xu Yuhan came out from Wu Ziyun with Pengpeng, and then diverted to Huairou.

The filming of "Broken Soul Gun" handed over to Guan Bao has officially started, and the filming location of this time is Huairou Film and Television Base.I talked about this with Guan Bao before, and by chance, Zhang Zhong took Xu Yuhan and Peng Peng to join in the fun.

Zhang Chong has read the script of "Broken Soul Gun". The original is a short story, which was changed to be quite long by Guan Bao, and a lot of things were added, but all the added details are just to highlight the sentence "the big dream of the East can't be woken up" up".

When the three of them arrived at the Huairou film and television base, the crew was resting, and Guan Bao was watching the clip just shot.

Seeing Zhang Zhong coming, Guan Bao got up quickly, "Mr. Zhang, why are you still conducting surprise inspections, and you didn't tell me in advance when you came?"

Zhang Zhong smiled and said, "Let me tell you in advance, is that still called an inspection?"

"It's not a coincidence for you to come here. I just took a break here. How about I ask them to play it again for you to see?"

"Just kidding, we're just here to have fun, and you can do whatever you want. Is the filming progress going well?"

"At the beginning of filming, it's not bad. Anyway, I don't have anything else to do, so let's show you around." Guan Bao said to the assistant director next to him, "Old Qin, please watch here for a while, and I will show Teacher Zhang around."

The assistant director smiled, "Leave it to me."

Guan Bao nodded, and led Zhang Zhong and the others to a house in front, "This is the main filming location of this movie, Sha Zilong's residence, and all the scenes during this period were filmed here. How about it, Is it different from what you think?"

Zhang Chong said with a smile, "I haven't really thought about what the house should look like."

This is the difference between text workers and image workers.

When many novelists write novels, when they write about a certain thing, they don't write too much detail at all, just write a rough outline, and leave more to the reader's imagination.

The typical ones are Gu Long's martial arts novels. In his martial arts novels, there are less descriptions of moves and more of an imagery.

For example, in "Sentimental Swordsman Ruthless Sword", Li Xunhuan kills Zhuge Lei.Zhuge Lei suddenly covered his throat and looked at Li Xun Huan, but the carving knife in Li Xun Huan's hand was gone.

As for how the flying knife flew out and how it was inserted into Zhuge Lei's throat, Gu Long didn't write anything.

But this is not the case when making movies. They have to present the real thing to the audience. Sometimes, if a detail is not handled properly, the audience may be criticized.
