In the past two days, someone asked someone about Liu Wangxue's work at Shenghai Entertainment, and Du Yunxiang felt very sorry. If she hadn't met people like Karamatsu when she entered the industry, she might be at the top of the industry now.
So, coupled with Du Yunkai’s previous endorsement, Du Yunxiang did not ask the copyright department to come forward. Today, he not only expressed his willingness to buy, but also gave a very generous price.
Liu Wangxue thought to herself, Du Yunkai must not know about this matter. He was so strict in his words and never disclosed it to her.
Therefore, she never mentioned to Du Yunkai that she no longer planned to sell the film and television rights of this script, especially the PC version.
"Sister Yunxiang, can I ask which version of the script you want to buy?" Liu Wangxue asked.
"Of course it's the version you re-edited for the PC game," Du Yunxiang said, "What, is there any problem?"
Liu Wangxue was a little embarrassed: "Sister, I am definitely not taking Qiao, The price you offered really makes me very excited, but I have my own concerns.”
If someone had come to buy the film and television rights of "The Case of Da Zhao 21" from her in the past, she would definitely have done so. Sell it without hesitation, just like selling the game adaptation rights to Du Yunkai.
At that time, I was both disappointed with the industry and also faced financial pressure from my family. It doesn't matter how much the copyright fee is, as long as there is income.
Now, the family has no major expenses, and her parents have savings. Liu Wangxue has no financial pressure, and the money in the account is enough to live in Qiushui Town for retirement.
Her idea for the future is to try different styles of scripts according to her own preferences, write them, and then submit them to manuscripts or find a website to publish them. It would be best if it could sell. If it didn't, it didn't matter to her, just practice writing.
Therefore, she became very concerned about "The Twenty-One Cases of Zhaozhao", a work that she devoted a lot of effort to.
If Du Yunxiang wants to buy the first edition, there is no problem. She also believes that with the production level of Junxi Entertainment, the quality of the film will not be bad.
But what Du Yunxiang likes is the second version, the PC version.
This version of the story has a grander background and richer settings than before. It is no longer limited to the investigation itself, but involves family, country, world, and worldly troubles.
In addition to the traditional martial arts settings requested by Du Yunkai, Liu Wangxue also added folklore when creating. Especially the descriptions of several small countries around Jokhang are mysterious and magnificent.
For example, in the Muyun Kingdom in the south of Jozhao, the Mengli tribe used witchcraft to give birth to snake girls, who were sacrificed every five years.
The Mengli Mountains have unique landforms and landscapes, with residual hills, peaks, forests, eroded depressions, and the main peak Pukao Mountain integrating all four seasons.
Ten thousand acres of rhododendrons at the foot of the mountain are in full bloom all year round, the glaciers and snow on the top of the mountain remain there all year round, the sea of clouds billows in the mountains, and the mist never disperses at sunrise.
Legend has it that in ancient times, the great witch of the tribe divined that the land of Chu Muyun was about to collapse and could not be saved except by the power of the gods.
The leader Dahuan went out to the mountains to search and met a goddess descended from the sky. While she was injured and unconscious, she was brought back to the tribe and imprisoned under the glacier of Pukao Mountain.
However, the goddess is weak and her magical power can only protect the Mengli Mountains, so the Mengli tribe dare not tell the outside world.
The great witch used the blood of Da Yuan's heart and supplemented it with secret methods to extract the power of the goddess, and built a secret protective barrier.
A few years later, the land of Muyun was shaken, more than ten years before the great witch divination came out. Other tribes searched for the gods to no avail, and almost no survivors survived.
After the disaster subsided, the Mengli tribe unified the Muyun Kingdom.
But the goddess is still trapped under the glacier.
A hundred years later, the goddess was rescued. In order to avenge Daruan, she turned the new queen into a monster with a body and a snake's tail.
The goddess also fell and turned into a demon, transforming into Lan, covering the entire Muyun Kingdom.
The sun cannot penetrate the clouds and illuminate the earth. This is tantamount to a disaster for the Muyun Kingdom, which regards the sun as its religious belief. Dahuan hiked up the mountain and set up an altar to repent. After ninety-nine and eighty-one times, the great witch was able to talk to the Lan demon and get the solution——
The queen sacrifices.
However, she became pregnant, and the great witch divined that the child was the son of destiny, and he would inherit the throne.
They have waited hundreds of years for such an heir. As long as the heir is born, the great wizard and Da Yuan can return to Mengli.
This is the inheritance of their tribe since ancient times. Every leader is named "Da Yuan" and must be destined by destiny. Only the great witch can divine this "destiny".
After the birth of a new generation of destined leaders, they will guide a new generation of great wizards. The two will lead the tribe to a brighter future, while the great wizards and leaders of the previous generation will disappear.
What Lan Yao wants is not the queen, but the heir in the queen's womb.
The two set up an altar to negotiate again, but to no avail.
After discussion, it was decided to hand over the queen. If an heir is not born, they will not die. At worst, they will have to wait hundreds of years.
However, five years later, the new queen was diagnosed with good news, and the great witch divined and received the divine inspiration, confirming that the baby was the heir.
However, before they could rejoice, the queen transformed into a snake girl that night, and the demonic mist enveloped Muyun Kingdom again.
This will continue to be the case for the next five years.
In the next five years, the great witch discovered that the Lan demon had changed, as if it was gradually merging with chaos. In order to protect the heir, the great witch set up an altar, borrowed the fate of heaven, selected a common woman, and used witchcraft to turn her into a snake girl to sacrifice for the queen.
The new Dahuan and the great witch know each other because of their inheritance. When the five-year period comes and thick fog comes, it is the time for the snake girl to sacrifice.
The altar is located on the Pukao Glacier. Starting from the tens of thousands of acres of azalea flowers at the foot of the mountain, Muyun people hold torches and stand on the side of the mountain road to illuminate the way to the top of the mountain.
The snake girl snakes her way up under the spotlight.
As time went by, this sacrifice was no longer about dying for the queen, but became a ritual of faith.
The selected girls will be given the supreme glory and mission. Their sacrifice is no longer forced and painful, but willing and proud.
——Look, it is my sacrifice that brings eternal light.
What Du Yunkai and Xu Qingsong have now is the plot of "Snake Girl Sacrifice".
Especially the character of Snake Girl, it is not difficult to make, but it is still more difficult to do it well.
With the current domestic production level, whether it is a game or animation, the performance of the "snake tail" part cannot be satisfactory.
Like the crude special effects in some dramas, it seems as if a head is inserted into a curved and stiff stick, and then the audience is told that this thing is a snake.
The idea of Du Yunkai and Xu Qingsong is to make this place a classic scene in the game. The plot is there, so the technology must not be held back.
The first draft of the character design has come out, and Xu Qingsong also showed it to Liu Wangxue. They have the same idea, beauty is beautiful, but it's almost meaningless.
Gossip (the author is happy)
"Muyun" combined into one word is "枟", which means something is missing
"Pukao" is the transliteration of the Thai word, which means "mountain". I am too lazy to name it hahahaha
"Tayuan" is also the transliteration of a Thai word, which means "sun". The tribe believes in the sun, so the leader should also be called this, hahaha
