Chapter 94 You should learn to be a screenwriter
Chapter 94 You should learn to be a screenwriter
Zhang Zhong didn't know much about filmmakers' thinking, he was just an ordinary audience, but he still made use of his strengths and circumvented his weaknesses to express his thoughts.
"I'm a complete layman when it comes to movies. If director Wen wants to get some fantastic ideas about novel adaptations from me, I think you will probably be disappointed."
Zhang Chong smiled, leaned back slightly, and continued, "But since Director Wen has come all the way, I can't let you go for nothing. Let me talk about my humble opinion. "Ten Little Indian Boys" It is not a pure mystery novel itself, I don’t need to repeat this point, everyone can see clearly. Since it is not a pure mystery novel, then this book should have other focuses.”
He paid attention to the eyes of Wen Jinjiang and the others, seeing that they were listening intently, he continued, "In order to give people a sense of reality in the scene, I used a lot of psychological description, especially when facing everyone. When I die. Facts have proved that I just succeeded. I know that the murderer is around and will kill them one by one, but I still go step by step to the key point of life. An important point. Although movies are different from novels, I think art is probably the same. If movies can do these things, they will definitely be successful."
"In the front of the story, when I suddenly heard the recording of the crimes I committed in the past, everyone's reaction was clear..."
Zhang Zhong talked eloquently, and he went through the entire heart of everyone in the book. He took advantage of Rebirth. This book has been published for dozens of years on earth, and it has long been thoroughly researched. , he is just standing on the shoulders of giants.
Wen Jinjiang looked at Zhang Zhong who was analyzing the psychology of the characters for them, and couldn't help but sigh, as expected, only the author knows his own works best.
When he was reading this book, he could naturally see the importance of psychological description, but there was always a hazy veil between the reader and the author, and he could see through it but couldn't see it through.
"Zhang Zhong, you have experience as a screenwriter, right?" Wen Jinjiang suddenly said while Zhang Zhong was drinking water.
Zhang Zhong was a little surprised and said, "No."
"No?" Wen Jinjiang looked at Shen Jian who was next to him with some doubts, "If I remember correctly, your name is in the screenwriter column of the "Chameleon" sketch."
Zhang Zhong came to a sudden, "So that's what you said, let Shen Jian tell you about this."
Seeing that other people's eyes were focused on him, Shen Jian smiled and told the process of finding an important adaptation right.
"That was the case at the time. Teacher Zhang gave me an idea. I wrote the script."
Wen Jinjiang nodded, "I see."
Then he asked again, "Are you interested in participating in the writing of the script?"
Regarding this point, Zhang Zhong shook his head resolutely, "People have self-knowledge. I can write novels, but script creation is really beyond my capabilities."
In fact, he is not good at writing novels. He wrote "I am a fortune teller" with his memory in ink for so many days, and the manuscript has not yet been completed.
However, he can feel that his writing ability has improved significantly. People are afraid of being serious. Once you do something seriously, you will rarely fail to do it.
"It's like this... That's really a pity. I think it's a fly in the ointment for others to modify your own work." Wen Jinjiang's expression was a bit tangled, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Why don't you Go learn screenwriting?"
What?Zhang Chong almost didn't realize it, Wen Jinjiang is letting himself learn?
"Actually, screenwriting is not difficult. Your literary skills are here, just learn a format. It's just another art form, and it won't take long. If you are willing to learn, I can recommend it for you, just like Nanhuai Films I have old friends in the academy, you can go and sit in on it, since it is an audit, naturally there is no restriction." Wen Jinjiang said.
After Zhang Zhong listened to it, he wondered, "Why is Director Wen so worried about me?"
Wen Jinjiang smiled, "I just think it's a pity that you are not a screenwriter. Just now when Shen Jian talked about "Chameleon", I felt that your ability to create plots is beyond ordinary people. Of course, I also have some selfishness. This book If the company can get the book, set up the project, find actors, raise funds, and the preliminary work will be completed in a few months, I think you may be able to be a screenwriter by then."
After all the talking, Wen Jinjiang even wanted to make himself a screenwriter.
Zhang Zhong actually wants to be a salted fish, and he still has to take care of Peng Peng, so he doesn't have much free time.Moreover, he hadn't learned something seriously for many years, and now he suddenly went to learn screenwriting, and he himself felt unreliable.
"Director Wen, thank you for your..."
Zhang Zhong was about to decline politely, but Wen Jinjiang raised his hand and said, "Don't refuse me in a hurry, Nanhuai Film Academy is here, you can go there anytime, my friend is also a sweetheart, even if you don't go to study, It's also a good thing to meet and chat with him, anyway, it's still early, you can think about it slowly, if one day you change your mind, just give me a call."
After finishing speaking, Wen Jinjiang looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late, I have to go back to Shanghai, let's leave a contact information, and I'll give you my friend's phone number later."
After he finished speaking, the assistant Xiao Can handed over a business card with great insight. The business card on a white background was very simple. Apart from the three words "Wen Jinjiang", there was only a string of mobile phone numbers. This is Wen Jinjiang's personal business card.
Wen Jinjiang got up to leave, Zhang Zhong and Shen Jian also stood up, Shen Jian said, "Will Director Wen stay and have a meal together?"
"Forget it this time. Next time, I hope it can be a dinner between the director and the screenwriter. Of course, you, Xiao Shen, will naturally be indispensable at that time. Don't send it off, you two, just stay."
After Wen Jinjiang went out, he closed the door, leaving Zhang Zhong and Shen Jian in the box.
Shen Jian looked at the time and muttered, "It's only half an hour."
Zhang Zhong laughed and said, "Director Wen is a busy person, and time is naturally precious. Let's have dinner together tonight, but it's still early, so we can sit down and chat for a while."
"Well, it's true. We haven't eaten together yet, but we drank a lot of tea."
Zhang nodded, "Sit here for a while, I'll go and see my daughter, she's a naughty girl, don't cause trouble to others."
"My child, what trouble can I cause?"
When Zhang Zhong and Shen Jian left the box door, the girl who had taken Pengpeng to eat before was still standing at the door. After seeing the two of them, she smiled and said, "Mr. is looking for your daughter, she is here Over there at the restaurant."
"Then trouble you to lead the way."
