Chapter 369 Lin Fan, you bastard, give me back Zhu Yingtai!
Not only Li Tai, but the entire comment section was completely overwhelmed!
When everyone first clicked into "Butterfly Lovers", the comments they left were like this:
[Hello, Biaomei: At first I thought Lin Fan was here to make money. How could an idol like that draw comics? But when I clicked in and took a look, I was really attracted to him! ]
[Hand over all the spicy strips: Ahhhhhhh! This is the character image in my mind perfectly. This is what Chinese-style comics should be like! The story is also very interesting. I like this pair of college lovers! ]
[Old Flower of the Motherland: The key is that it is a full-color comic! Brothers! Although it is a short story, the workload is not small, and it is uploaded all at once. You don’t have to follow the update, you can just read it directly, it’s so cool! ]
After finishing the comic, the comments section became like this: [I’m still happy being single: WTF! Seeing how interesting the college life was, I thought it was a romantic comedy, but Lin Fan just threw a knife without saying a word! He’s not a good person! ]
[My mother's daughter is the most beautiful: She laughs so happily at the beginning, and cries so miserably at the end! Is it popular to trick dogs into coming in with funny plots and torture them? ]
[I live next door to yours. My last name is Wang: Lin Fan, you bastard, give me back Zhu Yingtai! ]
…
Although Lin Fan felt that he had expressed the ending of "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai Turn into Butterflies" very clearly, people still could not accept the ending where Liang Shanbo vomited blood and died, and Zhu Yingtai committed suicide for love, even though the entire plot line was arranged very reasonably without any signs of awkwardness.
But precisely because it is reasonable, it is even more difficult for everyone to accept this ending.
After all, reality is already so difficult. We just want to find a little sense of satisfaction in the comics of fighting against fate and achieving success. Lin Fan, you are unwilling to satisfy such a small request and you have to torture us to death. What are you thinking?
Disagree, do not accept, firmly refuse!
This call even spread from the Penguin Comics platform to Lin Fan's super blog account. There were dozens of pages of messages asking for the "Resurrection of Liang Zhu". Xiao Wan was a little shocked: "Brother Fan, you have really offended the majority of comic fans."
Lin Fan was also helpless about this.
"Butterfly Lovers" is such a story!
I haven't changed, I haven't changed at all! Why do you accept it well on Earth, but you can't accept it when you come to Blue Planet?
It has to be said that Lin Fan fell into a misconception.
On Earth, "Butterfly Lovers" is a long-standing folk literature that began to take shape in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and was widely spread in the form of oral legends. Later, it gradually evolved into written records and literary works, and finally formed art forms such as drama, folk art, and music.
In short, the public's acceptance of this story has been baptized by hundreds of years and has long been engraved in their bones. If Lin Fan had let Liang Zhu live and grow old together in the end, he would have been criticized to death!
But unfortunately, this is Blue Planet, and the story of "Butterfly Lovers" was known to the public in this form for the first time, so this situation has occurred.
"So Brother Fan, what if everyone insists that you change the ending?"
"Ignore them!"
Lin Fan didn't take it seriously. After the last incident where an unscrupulous investor maliciously modified "A Chinese Ghost Story", Lin Fan had already made up his mind that no one would be allowed to change his story!
Especially "Liang Zhu"! Liang Zhu turned into butterflies, what a beautiful ending! Why change it? Wouldn't it be too cliché to change it to Liang Zhu growing old together? How can the daily necessities of life be as free as turning into butterflies?
Even though a butterfly only lives for a few days!
And as Yang Hongxia said, there are topics only when there is controversy. Let them protest and wait until the movie is made in the future. You can still clamor to change the ending of the comic. Why don’t you try to change the ending of a movie?
…
Lin Fan, Xiao Wan and the photographer flew back to Shanghai to attend the first script discussion meeting for A Chinese Ghost Story.
The script was written according to the theme ideas provided by Lin Fan. Given that what Lin Fan actually provided was a complete movie, there was almost no room for the screenwriters to play. Of course, Lin Fan did not want to give the screenwriters free rein.
So in general.
"This version of the script is almost done, but there are a few details that need to be adjusted."
Although Lin Fan couldn't write scripts, he had seen movies, and with his [Photographic Memory] skill activated, he remembered every line clearly.
Can't write, can't you revise it? But even with the plug-in, this communication meeting lasted for a full three hours. After the meeting, Lin Fan collapsed on the sofa like a salted fish.
"I would rather run announcements than deal with these things anymore. It's too tiring!"
Physically and mentally exhausted!
Yang Hongxia laughed at Lin Fan: "This is just the beginning. You can't stand a three-hour meeting. The post-production shooting and editing are really exhausting!"
There will be a lot of communication meetings and preparatory meetings. The finished film will also have to be watched and checked repeatedly. If there is something wrong, it will have to be re-shot. In short, making a movie is a very troublesome and tedious task.
Especially now there is no mature team and everything needs to be adjusted. Yang Hongxia optimistically estimates that it would be great if "A Chinese Ghost Story" can be completed this year. Peering into the negative scenario, the film may not be completed next year, let alone be released online.
Lin Fan thought of something: "Has the assistant director been chosen?"
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The current director of "Longing for the Courtyard" is hired from outside and has signed a filming contract. He is not considered a member of Lin Fan's studio. However, the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story" requires an "in-house director" to control the overall situation.
However, most directors, even those who are not famous, will inevitably have their own ideas about shooting a movie. Lin Fan was afraid that the director could make another "A Chinese Ghost Story" with the script he wrote, so in order to ensure that the final film was the one he remembered, Lin Fan had to act as the director himself.
Therefore, for Lin Fan, a new director who can’t be any newer, it is very important to have an assistant director who has strong professional ability, rich experience and will not interfere with his film.
It's more important than choosing actors! After all, with the male and female protagonists being played by Lin Fan and Xia Yan, there really isn't much room for selection for the remaining roles.
Yang Hongxia handed Lin Fan a folder: "After preliminary screening, the remaining ones all meet your requirements."
Lin Fan flipped through it and couldn't help but be surprised: "So many?"
"A lot?"
"Not much?"
Yang Hongxia sighed, "You have to know that there are quite a lot of students studying directing in China. Every year, a large number of newcomers enter the industry. It is a very, very large number that only one in a thousand of them can finally direct a movie! There are many more people who may never have this opportunity in their entire lives."
Year after year, graduating class after graduating either changes careers or continues to stay in the crew. There are only a few successful directors, and even those are the only ones who are unsuccessful.
There are even more assistant directors.
“But I’m not very satisfied with any of this.”
Yang Hongxia changed the subject and said, "I have another candidate."
