Whose novel was The Gathering in Xiaogang Feng adapted from? original author

Xiaogang Feng's Assembly Number is adapted from the short story Lawsuit of Novel Monthly.

Xiaogang Feng wants to put the lawsuit of Putian writer Yang Jinyuan on the screen.

Xiaogang Feng, a famous director who is known as the leader of commercial films in China, took a fancy to the novel Lawsuit by Putian writer Yang Jinyuan. On the ninth day of the first month, Yang Jinyuan was invited to Beijing to sign a contract with Xiaogang Feng. Xiaogang Feng bought out the copyright of the novel "Litigation" for seven years and tried to make it into a film this year.

Yang Jinyuan's novel "Litigation" published in "Fiction Monthly" in 2002 was taken a fancy to by movie star Zhang Guoli and recommended to Xiaogang Feng. Xiaogang Feng found this monthly novel and got in touch with the author Yang Jinyuan. It is reported that "Litigation" is a short story with the theme of war, which tells the legendary story of a company commander who spent more than 40 years looking for the head of the army.

For some time, the news that "Xiaogang Feng plans to make a sensational Assembly" has been a hot topic in many media. It is reported that the focus of the media and the public's attention mainly come from three expectations for the film: first, the effect of "famous director+blockbuster"-"Xiaogang Feng" brand, "big production with investment of more than 10 million dollars", "the first commercial film with modern war theme in China film history", and so on; Second, the growth of the actor team and the characteristics of "the combination of Chinese and western"-"it is expected to gather many of the best acting actors in China, and foreign actors may join"; The third is the breakthrough of story and theme-paying attention to the fate of "little people" (soldiers) under the background of war and "creating China's version of Saving Private Ryan". A lot of influential information will really arouse people's interest.

What makes Putian people unexpected and proud is that such a great film worth looking forward to has a "sweet potato" Putian "bloodline"-the new film is adapted from the novel "Lawsuit" by Yang Jinyuan, a middle-aged writer in our city.

It is indeed a "good marriage" for the works of writers in our city to enter Feng Dao's "eyes". It is understood that Yang Jinyuan's "Litigation" was published in Fujian Literature in 2003, and was immediately reprinted by the domestic authoritative magazine "Novel Monthly". Zhang Guoli, a famous actor who often browses the Novel Monthly, accidentally read this work and was very impressed. He immediately recommended it to his friend Xiaogang Feng. After reading the work, Feng Dao tried his best to find Yang Jinyuan's telephone number through various channels. After reaching the cooperation intention, Feng Dao invited Yang Jinyuan to Beijing for in-depth discussions, and finally reached a copyright transfer agreement under their generous "dry" clink. Since then, there has been a small "tidbit", that is, who wrote the adaptation. It is reported that Feng Dao thought of military writer Qiao Liang and others, and the famous novelist Liu Heng was finally entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

It seems that for Putian people, besides the three expectations shared by China movie audiences, there will definitely be some other expectations. The national audience is still immersed in the sad costumes of the banquet, but the director Xiaogang Feng has quietly left.

Yesterday, Xiaogang Feng revealed in Beijing that he will go to the Northeast today, and the next new film Assembly will be launched on June 6th 10. All the actors in the film have been finalized, all of them are newcomers in their late teens. As the first director who dared to challenge the main theme war blockbuster, Xiaogang Feng decided to take a gamble. He has decided to make the sound effect behind "Saving Private Ryan" for the film, as well as fly the fireworks and makeup behind the Tai Chi flag, so that the film can face the cruelty of war.

"Everyone thinks" The Banquet "is too cruel, and there will be more cruel things in my next film."

According to director Xiaogang Feng, this new film is adapted from Yang Jinyuan's short story "Litigation" published in the monthly novel, which he particularly wants to shoot. The whole story happened in 1948. A company was killed in the war, only one person survived, but even this person was missing. No one knows what happened at that time, and no one thinks they are heroes.

Xiaogang Feng said: "This is a film about sacrifice and sacrificing value. More than 40 years later, the man who stayed with us found the footprints of the first batch of fallen soldiers. In the process, they proved that they are real heroes. "

All the actors in the film have reported to the Northeast Studio and are undergoing strict military training. When everyone is concerned about which stars have joined Xiaogang Feng's new film, he seriously said: "There are no stars, they are all newcomers. We looked up the history at that time. The average age of everyone in this company is only 18 to 19. We can't find such a young star. In order to show realism, we can only give up. "

Ge You, the best partner of "Feng blockbuster", didn't take part in his new film either, because the whole film didn't have a role that he could play at his age. "The biggest official here is the company commander. Ge You's age should be at least the head of the team, so he can only give up."

"Since it is a war, I will show the cruelty of war in more detail." There are no stars to help out, but Xiaogang Feng spent 80 million yuan to invite the behind-the-scenes team of Hollywood blockbusters to help out, and strive to keep the film effect unchanged from overseas blockbusters.

According to him, the cast of "Saving Private Ryan" has been invited to do sound effects, and the cast of "Flying Tai Chi Flag" has been invited to do fireworks and make up. He also bought a special camera, which can not be affected by blasting, including tanks and other combat tools, and has also begun to be shipped to the northeast.

It is reported that the "Assembly" is ready to be officially launched in the northeast on June 6/kloc-0. Wang, the boss of Huayi Brothers, revealed that this novel was originally liked by Zhang Guoli, but Zhang Guoli introduced this good idea to him unexpectedly because he needed big investment and big scenes.

Xiaogang Feng: This is really the last battle.

With an investment of 80 million yuan, there are no stars, nor are they costume films. Xiaogang Feng was puzzled when he talked about the rally, saying that it was his real "last battle". Xiaogang Feng told reporters that when filming the costume movie "The Banquet", someone came to buy the copyright before it was finished: "When the producer heard that it was" The Banquet ",his eyes lit up, but when he heard that my next movie was a war movie, his eyes immediately darkened, and he could not guarantee that this movie would make money." However, Xiaogang Feng is still very confident about his level of making war films. At the same time, Xiaogang Feng's war movies are also a kind of "market survey". "This is an experiment to see if everyone is really bored, so let's make a modern film for everyone to see."

Yang Jinyuan, who started writing novels in the mid-1980s, published a collection of novels, a woman with a knife in her life, and a novel. If I am not a virgin, don't marry me. His works have been selected by many famous publications in China. 1990, his novels Courtyard and Conscript were adapted into TV series.

It is understood that "Lawsuit" is a novel with the theme of war, which tells the legendary story of a company commander looking for the head of the army. This novel was written by Yang Jinyuan in 2002, published in Fujian Literature in April and selected by Fiction Monthly in June. Zhang Guoli, a famous actor in the entertainment circle, first read this novel in Novel Monthly and recommended it to Xiaogang Feng. Because I couldn't remember which publication it was for a long time, the staff of Xiaogang Feng Studio spent a lot of time searching for the general catalogue of various publications all over the country, and finally found Yang Jinyuan through the editor of Novel Monthly.
