Chapter 433 434【All-powerful】
?At the end of 2008, the action-suspense historical blockbuster directed by Tsui Hark, "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven", officially launched its promotion.
Prior to this, for the sake of confidentiality, the name of this film has not been announced to the public, let alone the plot, setting, and filming behind-the-scenes.
Because this movie is adapted from a novel, it is essentially a suspenseful mystery movie. Once the name is announced and the media investigates it, it is tantamount to a spoiler.
By then, the watchability of this movie will naturally be greatly reduced.
Hence why the filming was so confidential. All staff members must have credentials to enter, and there are tall shelves set up outside the studio and a thick curtain surrounding it, for fear that reporters will use telephoto lenses to secretly take photos remotely.
?Now, this movie is about to be released during the Spring Festival, and it must gain popularity, so some exciting news finally broke.
??For example, Tsui Hark''s new film is "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven", starring Andy Lau, Tony Leung Ka-fai, Li Bingbing, Deng Chao, Carina Lau, etc. It tells the story of a strange case that happened in Chang''an City in the first year of Wu Zetian''s accession to the throne.
??For example, Andy Lau and Li Bingbing not only have a lingering and pathos love in the film, but also have passionate scenes of high standard and long duration.
For example, the movie uses a lot of special effects technology and invites a well-known American special effects team to be responsible for the production. The production cost exceeds that of "Pirates of the Caribbean: At World''s End" released last year, etc.
…
?However, the media is not particularly interested in the information that the film crew proactively broke.
This type of press release can be found on every website. It is not exclusive, and naturally it will not attract much traffic.
To attract attention, you must have exclusive news.
?As a result, media from all walks of life crossed the sea, showing off their magical powers, and dug into the details to find exclusive news.
Soon Xiang Nan was targeted by them.
The media quickly found out that this movie was adapted from the novel of the same name.
The author of this novel is the well-known writer Xiang Nan.
?His other works include "Let the Bullets Fly", "I''m Not the God of Medicine", "Tiankeng" series, "River God" series, "Xiu Chun Dao" series, etc. He is now a well-known novelist in the mainland.
??Moreover, another of his novels, "Let the Bullets Fly," has been selected by Jiang Wen and is being adapted into a movie. This all proves his talent.
What’s even more remarkable is that it is said that Xiang Nan is not very old now and is still just a student.
This aroused media interest.
…
For a time, many media came to Huadong Architecture, hoping to interview Xiang Nan. This caused his popularity to skyrocket.
“It turns out that the news that the novel written by Chen Xiaozheng was chosen by director Tsui Hark is actually true.”
“I heard that even Jiang Wen wanted to film his novel. Chen Xiaozheng is really amazing.”
“That “Di Renjie: The Tongtian Empire” was actually written by Chen Xiaozheng. This is really unexpected.”
“It is said that one of his novels sold for one million. No wonder he can afford a Mercedes-Benz. Oh, it’s really amazing!”
??The classmates talked a lot and said that they were extremely envious of Xiang Nan.
In fact, East China University of Architecture and Architecture, as a well-known university in the country, has attracted talents from all over the world and has quite a few influential figures.
?Some people have been creating inventions since they were in middle school, some have started companies since they were in college, and some have participated in international design competitions and won awards...
But who is Ren, he is still a step behind Xiang Nan.
You can earn millions by writing a novel. Tsui Hark and Jiang Wen are rushing to cooperate with him, and various media are vying to interview him... How can he not be admired for his face and ability?
…
Compared to the excitement of his classmates, Xiang Nan was much calmer about becoming famous this time.
Because he does not want to be famous as a writer. Writing books is just a way for him to make a living. What he really wants to do is architectural design.
Because this is Chen Xiaozheng’s wish.
As the top scorer in the college entrance examination, he actually had many schools and majors to choose from.
But because he liked architecture since he was a child, he enrolled in the Department of Architectural Design at East China University of Architecture and Architecture.
??If Xiang Nan changes his career plan, after graduation, he will not engage in architectural design work, but do something unrelated to it. I''m afraid it will affect the completion of the task.
To be a successful architectural designer, in addition to having sufficient fame and qualifications, you must also establish a professional and rigorous image.
After all, whoever is looking for an architectural designer hopes to find a professional, and will not ask a writer to do it for him across the field.
Furthermore, Xiang Nan’s decision as a writer had to be kept secret from Chen Xiaozheng’s mother.
Otherwise she will say that she is not doing her job properly, wasting time, wasting money, doing things that have nothing to do with study.
Therefore, no matter how many media outlets come and no matter how strong their desire for interviews, Xiang Nan will always refuse to be interviewed.
In the eyes of his classmates, his behavior showed that he was not seeking fame or fortune, and that he was not seeking fame and fame. Their admiration and admiration for him became even higher.
“Azheng, you are really good.” Even Zheng Wei fell in love with him more and more.
This can be regarded as an unintentional insertion.
…
At the end of January, "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven" was officially released.
Xiang Nan immediately took Zheng Wei to the theater to watch the movie.
I feel that the photos were taken very well, especially the Tongtian Pagoda and the Underground Ghost Market, which were the most atmospheric.
The majesty of the Tongtian Pagoda and the spookiness of the underground ghost market are all perfectly interpreted by Mr. Xu.
“Azheng, the Tongtian Pagoda, the Wuji Taoist Temple, and the underground ghost market are all based on the concept maps you drew.” Zheng Wei said in surprise.
Last year, she witnessed Xiang Nan drawing these concept drawings.
Nowadays, those graphics on paper are all perfectly presented on the screen, which is really breathtaking.
“Yeah.” Xiang Nan also smiled and nodded.
?Although most of these buildings are produced with computer special effects, the conceptual blueprints were designed and drawn by him. Therefore, this can be regarded as a credit to him. You can write it on your resume in the future, I believe it will attract the attention of customers.
Soon, the two-hour movie viewing was over.
When the credits came out at the end of the film, Zheng Wei pointed at the screen in surprise and shouted, "Azheng, look, there is your name. Architectural design consultants Chen Xiaozheng and Shen Yuanli."
She then frowned again and asked displeasedly, "Who is this Shen Yuanli? Didn''t you design all those buildings?"
“Not all are designed by me, some are designed by others.” Xiang Nan explained with a smile.
Tongtian Pagoda, Underground Ghost Market, Wuji Taoist Temple, Tang Dynasty Palace, etc. were painted by him, while places such as Hu Renfang, Sifang Pavilion, Shilang Mansion, etc. were designed by Shen Yuanli.
??Then he took out his cell phone and searched for Shen Yuanli. I was surprised to find that he was actually a well-known expert on ancient architecture.
“Oh, awesome!” Xiang Nan felt somewhat honored to be able to stand alongside such a great person.
