The conversation between the two was very passionate. If Jiang Lu didn't know the inside story, he might actually feel a little emotional.
But when he thought about how the two men were discussing how to rule the world through banned books and notebooks, Jiang Lu felt that the style of painting was too distorted and he was unable to complain.
However, there was still some gain. Through the conversation between the two and his subsequent interjection inquiries, Jiang Lu also obtained a lot of useful information.
One is that every July 15th, when the Yin Qi is at its strongest, the Bailiu Sect will hold a sacrificial ceremony to worship the Baiyi Mother and seek opportunities for ascension.
Although no one has successfully ascended in the past hundred years, there have indeed been successful examples before, so everyone in the Bailiu Sect firmly believes in this.
Another thing is that the sacrificial ceremony of the Bailiu Sect originated from ancient methods and can really communicate with ghosts and gods. Therefore, even if they cannot get the favor of the Mother of Baiyi and open the door to the underworld, some gifted disciples of the Bailiu Sect can often get some gifts from other ghosts and gods, and their cultivation will increase greatly.
This is a dream opportunity for every monk.
And this is exactly what Jiang Lu needs.
In fact, although his goal is to find his own avatar through sacrifice, he has no idea how to perform sacrifice.
As Zeus said: In the past, others had sacrificed to me and begged to see me. How the hell do I know what the sacrifice was for?
Now it takes no effort at all to get it.
As long as you can get a place to participate in the sacrificial ceremony, this path will be cleared. As for whether you can achieve your goal, it depends on what happens next.
However, there was one question that confused Jiang Lu a little.
He pretended to be a novice and asked some things about Baiyi's mother from the two of them.
Judging from what the two said, Baiyi Old Mother should not be in this world. Her identity is more similar to the gatekeeper of the Netherworld Gate. She can only rely on the very short period of time that the sacrificial ceremony lasts to judge whether the sacrificial talisman is in line with her own. Ask, do you want to open the door from the inside.
This means that if there really is a god in this spiritual realm where the time passes at a rate of 1:1000, it is definitely not Baiyi Laomu.
This is equivalent to an additional unstable factor. Jiang Lu cannot judge whether the other party is a friend or an enemy, and he cannot ensure whether there will be any obstacles in the process of finding the clone.
While Jiang Lu was thinking about it, Wen Tao and Hua Ji had already decided to participate in the adaptation and began to discuss the details of the adaptation.
"However, I actually think that the work "My Father-in-law is the Holy Ancestor" has very limited adaptability, and the original audience range was actually a bit too narrow. It was created specifically for female cultivators."
Wen Tao said slowly:
"I'm not afraid of your jokes. At that time, I was breaking through the integration stage. It wasn't that I needed too much will power. On the contrary, it took a lot of practice resources to break through. So when I wrote this book, I actually wanted to earn practice resources. Written for the purpose.
After all, female cultivators have stronger spending power than male cultivators. They always like to spend their cultivation resources on unnecessary things. This is a fact recognized in the cultivation world.
If our goal is to establish ourselves in Yunzhou, then I don’t think this work is a suitable choice. I think we must choose a work that is more suitable for male cultivators to adapt, so that it can be accepted by the top level in Yunzhou, both in terms of influence and The degree should be more in line with our expectations. "
"You mean you don't want this work?"
Huafei sighed softly:
"What you said makes sense, but you have to know that male cultivators have much more sophisticated tastes, and it's not just a matter of casually fooling around with sexual dramas as long as the characters and emotional scenes are well handled.
Everyone has different hobbies, but we only have one chance to adapt it. How can you ensure that a work can be accepted by everyone? "
"Hey, don't say it, don't say it."
Wen Tao smiled mysteriously: "Look at this."
She handed Jiang Lu's masterpiece to the painter.
"Hua?" Huaji was very surprised.
She had long noticed the roll of manuscript paper that Wen Tao had been holding, but she only thought it was Wen Tao's latest proud work, waiting to be shown off in front of her, but she never expected that it would actually be a painting.
"No matter what the hobbies are, they are all erotic in nature, and this work can be called a complete collection of .”
Wen Tao smiled.
"Are you sure?" Hua Kai was a little unconvinced.
"Of course, I have experienced it." Wen Tao took a deep breath: "It was the darkest period in my life. I wrote all the most evil scenes I could think of into the book, and then I got the guidance of my practice The highest rating ever.”
"what?"
"Do you have any recommendations for books similar to this one?"
"Then I have to take a closer look."
Hua Fu nodded doubtfully, lowered his head and looked at it carefully.
Just seeing the character design, Hua Shi was amazed: "This style of painting... has something special."
And as the painting went deeper and deeper, her expression became more and more exciting.
"This line, this composition, this form..."
She was astonished and said: "It's completely different from the traditional erotic pictures with a picture and accompanying text. I feel like I can see the movements of the characters in the picture!"
A layman looks at the fun, while an expert looks at the door. This is the truth.
Zhou Luwei was heartbroken after watching Dao, Four Senior Brothers were shocked after watching Binzhou Circulation, Ling Ling was shocked after watching it, and Wen Tao was amazed by the plot and copywriting. Only paintings can show the originality and subversion of the times.
"Yes, it will be easier to adapt it this way."
Wen Tao’s experience: “A hundred people will have a hundred perceptions when reading a book, and the content rehearsed by the screenwriter will often be very different from what we, the authors, have in mind.
In this way, this problem does not exist.
And in addition to the painting skills you mentioned, the plot is also top-notch, and every aspect is taken care of. Except for the audience of cuckolds and danmei, I don’t think anyone will refuse it. "
"Let's put these aside for now."
The painter asked in disbelief: "You painted this?"
"Of course not, it was painted by my new disciple."
Wen Tao laughed extremely wildly:
"Why do you think I received a painter who is better than all the painters in your art academy put together, and who also has top literary talent?"
"You?" Huaji looked at Jiang Lu, who had been silent, in shock.
At this time, Jiang Lu was still thinking about how to get a quota, but he never thought that the opportunity would suddenly come to him.
As the saying goes, opportunities always come to those who are prepared.
"That's right, Uncle Painter, this is what I painted."
"You..." Hua Shi's expression was serious: "What's your name?"
"I call it a comic!"
Jiang Lu paused:
"The wave-particle duality of evil depravity and struggle is serialized in the weekly beast Jerk off!"
Hua Kai took a deep breath: "I'm starting to feel a little jealous of your talent."
"Jealousy never comes."
Wen Tao sighed: "He was born with the holy body of Slaanesh. Buddhism and Taoism say that form is emptiness, and emptiness is color. However, the holy body of Slaanesh can only form when it is empty. As long as it is related to Sese, the holy body of Slaanesh can do it without any guidance." Tong, even if it doesn’t exist originally, he can create it.”
"If that's the case, then I can understand why you don't let him be my model. It's really an insult to your talent." The artist said helplessly.
Wen Tao changed the topic: "So, my idea is that you take these manuscripts to Yunzhou, let the people in charge there take a look, tell them that we want to use this for adaptation, and then we can discuss the details after they confirm it. "
"With this quality, finishing the draft is definitely not a problem. The only problem is how to shoot it."
Hua Kai thought about it and said:
"After all, the scenes here are not as simple as the previous works we have collaborated with. If you want to present them completely, you must use more advanced photo balls. In this way, cost is an issue, and it also increases the audience's expectations. threshold.
They may not necessarily raise the cost to take this risk, and even if they agree, I guess they will squeeze the screen as much as possible and make the content rough in order to control costs. "
"Photo ball?" Jiang Lu was a little confused.
Huafei explained: "It is a magic weapon that can record images. Different levels, the length of the image that can be left and the width of the screen are also different. Based on your world view, ordinary photo balls will definitely not be able to meet the needs."
"Ah?" Jiang Lu realized something and said in shock: "You are not talking about a real film, are you? I thought the adaptation was rehearsed into a play and performed on the stage."
"It must be a real shot."
Hua Fu shook his head disdainfully:
"How many audiences are there for one play? And if you want it to be widely circulated, you have to train more performers to learn, and the cost is even higher.
Besides, you don’t even think about what content we are adapting. How can the actors handle so many performances in one day? "
Hua Chi's words were so reasonable that Jiang Lu couldn't even refute them.
"So, how to solve this problem is the most important issue."
Huafei said with some distress:
"High-end photo balls are more than ten times more expensive than ordinary photo balls. Even if Yunzhou is willing to make them, whether the target group is willing to spend the money is still a question."
But at this moment, Wen Tao suddenly said: "I have an idea."
"what?"
"We can first use a high-end photo ball to film a section based on Jiang Bao's comic and take it with us as a demo. I believe they will be instantly impressed after seeing it."
Wen Tao said seriously and solemnly:
"As for promotion, it's not a problem. We can cut out the exciting parts and combine them into a preview version. I dare say that as long as those male cultivators see the trailer, they will definitely buy it even if it is ten times more expensive!"
Hua Fu was surprised, and then he really started to think about the feasibility.
And Jiang Lu also felt inexplicably a little admired.
They also say that I am a self-taught person when I have free time. You are not bad either. In other words, there is no Internet in this world. If there is an Internet, why are you a literary cultivator? If you have such brains, you can directly become a welfare sacrifice and practice Qi speed. Mahayana is not a dream at all!
"This...is not a bad idea." Hua Shi thought about it and felt it was feasible.
"In that case..."
Wen Tao turned his gaze to Jiang Lu, who was still amazed:
"Disciple, this matter is of great importance and cannot be spread outside. Your comic is a taboo that even your senior sister can't bear. I can only rely on you for the trailer."
"Me?" Jiang Lu pointed at himself, with a confused look on his face: "Rely on me? Master, are you going to let me go into the sea?"
"It doesn't matter." Wen Tao consoled him, "If your second senior brother goes down the mountain to be a duck, wouldn't he be recognized as his disciple as a master? You don't have to have any psychological burden."
"That's not the question, I mean..."
But before he finished speaking, Wen Tao interrupted: "I know you are young and inexperienced, so your uncle and I will teach you."
As they spoke, Wen Tao and Hua Shi looked at each other and gradually approached...
