Chapter 113.1

HBO office building, New York.

The board of directors is holding urgent consultations on the announcement of the strike by the Writers Association.

"The current situation is that both CBS and NBC have hit shows that are not affected."

"We, with exclusive broadcast and homemade dramas as our selling points, have been hit the most!"

At this time, a young executive thought about it and raised his hand to speak.

"I heard recently that CBS's hit drama prison break is about to shoot a prequel."

"Producers are looking for partners everywhere because of funding problems."

"You say, if we rob the CBS series, what will happen?"

"Is that producer not affected by the writers' strike?" Someone asked.

The young executive shook his head. "It's a literary website. It's very difficult for the works on it to form a script."

"Literary website?" The chairman thought, "what are the above works like?"

"Er..." the young executive pondered, "the good and the bad are intermingled, but the ideas are novel, and the stories are curious."

"Are all those stories suitable for adaptation?" The chairman asked.

"There are many works above, and some of them are suitable for adaptation."

The young man came to the chairman with a laptop.

The chairman looked at it for a while, then put down the mouse.

"You said that this website is currently recruiting partners because of financial problems?"

"Yes." The young man replied.

"Then you go and touch it." The chairman paused for a moment and added: "we should pay attention to the advantages of the TV station over the production company, as well as the shortcomings of the other side's lack of funds."

"I understand." Young executives nodded, "but what are our bottom line and goals?"

The chairman stood up and watched the writers sit downstairs protesting.

"License as many works as possible."

At the same time, the flushing area.

Wang Jian sat in his office, looking through some documents he had tried to collect.

Through these days of information, he has a certain idea of how to adapt the two works.

The original work "the legend of Zhen Huan in the back Palace" is a completely aerial work, which does not explain the specific background of the story.

Its main content is to tell the story of a "white lotus" who gradually became black in the struggle of the harem and finally became the master of the harem.

But...

the Oriental Language and background in it make it more difficult to adapt the novel.

Moreover, if it is completely overhead, it is not very friendly to readers.

So, embed the story in history?

Russia's yekaterina the great, it is very appropriate.

However, because the United States deliberately played down the history of Russia.

Now, even the eastern front in World War II, in the hearts of the American people, has almost become a soy sauce player.

Because of education, ordinary Americans have a relatively deep understanding of the history of Britain and France.

But according to the different social atmosphere, the French court tearing is not so serious.

When the court woman saw that the king didn't like her, she was likely to find a lover or something.

And the king hides outside the door, excited eavesdropping...

this is the normal development of Gallic rooster.

So, the only option at the moment is the UK.

After a careful inquiry of the information, Wang Jian found out.

In British history, only the mother of Queen Elizabeth I, Anne Boleyn, could barely meet the requirements.

Henry VIII, the king of England at that time, was not only the father of Elizabeth I, but also his great uncle.

Elizabeth I's cousin was Mary I, her last king of England.

Anyway, it's no problem to sigh that your circle is really chaotic.

Step by step, Anne Boleyn became the "uncrowned king" of the European Court at that time from the youngest daughter of a country aristocrat who had no right of inheritance.

And the war with the two queens and countless court ladies is also recorded in historical books.

This woman is used as the protagonist of the story of Zhen Huan in the harem, which may be beautified.

As for the British royal family, they have not prosecuted anyone for historical figures.

The recent rumors of Princess Diana's divorce alone have left them in a mess.

For a long time, they should not care about anything else.

On the other hand, Wang Jian felt that the adaptation of the book was not so complicated.

Because the "guide to the galaxy", which has the same idea, is itself a classic science fiction work with great influence.

Then, comparatively speaking, the more profound and epic sense of the book is the record of abnormal creatures.The difficulty of adaptation is mainly reflected in how to translate funny Chinese dialogues into English.

After sorting out the materials and outline, Wang gradually took a deep breath.

This time, I'm going to challenge shuangkai.

When the adaptation of a novel is a little tired, change it to another one.

This will allow the brain to get the maximum degree of relief.

You don't want to let yourself see Tom and Dorothy and feel that "there's always a villain who wants to harm me"!

So, four hours later, some readers were surprised to find out.

Wang Jian, who has just finished the transformation of a muscular man, turned his head to write about women's works!

"Isn't this NIMA funny? Hulk version of wonder woman? Or the black widow of kesuru? "

"Wang, are you poisoned by feminism?"

"No! It seems that Wang is serializing two books! " Someone left a message on twitter.

"No? No way

There are also close friends @ Neil geiman, JK Rowling and so on.

The two people who are trying to update the "American gods" and are writing the outline of the second "Harry Potter" have sent private letters through Twitter.

"Wang, are you crazy?"

"Switching styles can relieve mental fatigue." Wang Jian replied.

Neil Gayman and JK Rowling were speechless at the same time. They also published Wang Jian's private letter.

This makes the other authors of the serial on the website shout, "come and see God!"

Of course, there are also some people who don't think so.

"People's physique is different. I used to code more than 5000 words per hour in extreme anger."

"What's your work? I'll visit it."

"Well, it's blocked by the website. The scale of description is too large

"Shit, writing that stuff, I can stay up all day and all night."

Everyone's reply quickly began to deviate from the theme.

Then Tom came into the office.

"Wang, in addition to reed harringtons from Los Angeles, HBO also made an offer."

"They also asked to meet and talk with you."

Wang Jian raised his head and rubbed his temples.

"Let's make an appointment to bring the two parties together."

He laughed. "If there is competition, it will always be a good thing."

"Isn't it?"
