Chapter 451: Crossover Heavenly King

At the end of August, the students were busy returning to school during the summer vacation, while Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan came to the waiting room of Yanjing International Airport in a low-key manner, preparing to meet with the crew of the "Martian Rescue" crew and then take a plane to Venice together.

Tomorrow is the opening ceremony of the film festival. Not only do they have to walk on the red carpet of the opening ceremony, but they also have to show their own movies in the evening, so they must set out in advance!

In the VIP waiting room, Lin Han looked at the schedule on his phone and said to Chen Jiaxuan: "Fortunately we prepared in advance, otherwise we would have to take leave for the first class on September 3rd, which would not work."

As a distinguished professor at Yenching University, his course was selected during the summer vacation and had been moved from a small classroom to a staircase classroom. The course "World Science Fiction Literature Appreciation" cannot fail!

"We will come back after the opening ceremony. There was no need to rush like this." Chen Jiaxuan sighed. It is not easy to take a long-distance plane continuously, and everything can only be endured.

Lin Han took a sip of water, and he shrugged helplessly and replied: "After all, I set up the course first, and then I found out that I was shortlisted for the Venice Film Festival. I am just the original author and screenwriter of "Martian Rescue", and I can't occupy much gimmick."

He actually wanted the film he shot to enter the main competition unit of the three major film festivals in the world. I wonder if there is still a chance to step on that land as a real creator in the future!

Li Li, who was sitting aside, had also heard of Lin Han being hired to be a professor at Yenching University. She originally thought it was just a playful thing, but she didn't know that he actually attached it so much.

So she asked curiously: "Teacher Lin, how many classes do you have in college a week? Maybe we can come and listen."

"Study once a week, two consecutive sessions each time."

Most elective courses are like this. Lin Han’s focus is not on teaching and educating people. He just wants to spread the seeds of science fiction novels in college.

"It's okay. After our movie premiere is over, you can come back first. If "Martian Rescue" has the opportunity to win the award, the organizing committee will notify us to go back at the closing ceremony. At that time, will you still have a hard time?"

Lin Han shook his head. He went to the Venice Film Festival just for the premiere of "The Martian Rescue". This is the first movie adapted from his novel. It is necessary to go to the scene to see the effect, and also listen to the audience and film critics' statements.

As for the best script award, I don’t expect it, and it is not the most important thing in the entire film festival. There is no need to mess with my body!

Chen Jiaxuan's trip was mainly to test the overseas copyright market. Lin Han's science fiction novels are becoming more and more popular around the world, and a lot of film copyrights have been sold.

"Jurassic Park" has been filmed and will be released next summer. It will definitely be a box office bomb. As for "Bouquet for Algeron" bought by Leonardo is the type that Oscar judges like, and I guess many awards will be won during the awards ceremony season by then!

But Lin Han not only has these few books, but his vigorous creation every year is simply impossible to stop. There are many works idle aside. Instead of holding a grand event, it is better to take them out and cooperate with others to develop them.

Just as the few people were talking, Xu Jiayan walked in with his assistant, agent and styling team. The Cannes actor greeted everyone with a smile and said, "It seems that I am the latest. Our plane shouldn't be late, right?"

"Director Zheng hasn't come yet, you're not the latest one." Li Li knew that Xu Jiayan was not an ordinary little actor who could be controlled casually, so her attitude was very gentle. Who told Xu Jiayan to be handsome and popular?

This time I went to Venice, I also hoped that European media and film producers would promote overseas screening rights through Xu Jiayan. This is the role of top actors!

Lin Han waved at him. The actor's acting skills are solid and spiritual, comparable to the original Matt Damon's performance. He never gives up in danger and makes fun of hardships. He is very real. To describe it as down-to-earth in Internet hot words.

"Brother Xu, you look very handsome today. Did you dress up specifically?" Lin Han joked. He dressed casually and did not deliberately pay attention to anything. He would do whatever he felt comfortable.

Xu Jiayan pulled his collar and replied: "There are many reporters coming to the airport. They can't let them take pictures of me in a mess. As long as Burberry's clothes endorsed, I might as well be a model and a street shot."

The actor Xu is in his forties when he is full of energy. He brings a mature charm that young actors have never had before. This style is very popular.

Usually, celebrities are a waste if they don’t take selfies and send them out. Fortunately, the crew of "Martian Rescue" does not like selfies, which makes fans very depressed.

Li Li looked at the itinerary brought by her assistant, and she said, "Before leaving, the reporter of Phoenix Entertainment wanted to interview everyone, and then take pictures of the street photos of the airport and the pictures of the expedition. Now they have sent the deputy editor here. Are you willing?"

Lin Han shook his head neatly. It was better to close his eyes and think about the plot later when there was time. The story of "Haiberian" had developed to a small high. At the climax, he not only wanted to maintain this high level, but also wanted to make a breakthrough. This is the most literary science fiction work, which he placed high hopes on.

"You're fine now, so you're just going to do an interview. Don't you still owe Renmin University Press a promotion? You'll definitely be too busy with the signing meeting. It's much more cost-effective to take an hour of interview than to get sore wrists at that time." Chen Jiaxuan poked Lin Han's waist with her hand and persuaded her.

Lin Han had promised Zhao Han to promote "Resident Evil", but it has not been fulfilled. Now it is a film festival and a lecture at Yenching University, so I really don’t have time to get a signing party. Phoenix Entertainment is also a good platform, and this interview will definitely be forwarded everywhere!

"Mr. Li, I'll go for an interview, but just street photography is forgot. I'm afraid that my clothes will be laughed at by the fashion industry." Lin Han began to make himself up. In fact, fast-selling clothing like HM is very popular, not as bad as he said, and it's just that I don't want to fake it.

Lin Han, Xu Jiayan, and Zheng Shuping dragged the three horses of "Martian Rescue". The other two were quite cooperative with the publicity, but Lin Han was not easily invited. Now he is willing to accept an interview, which makes Li Li a little overjoyed!

Also surprised was Guo Xiaoyue, deputy editor-in-chief of Phoenix Entertainment. Even national media could not interview Lin Han, but could he actually give him an exclusive interview?

Even though Guo Xiaoyue was used to seeing celebrities from all walks of life, she was also excited because of her exclusive interview with Lin Han. In fact, she had not prepared the manuscript for interviewing Lin Han in advance. Maybe she felt that it was not useful, so now she could only adapt to the situation.

...

On the sofa, Lin Han stood up and shook hands with the deputy editor-in-chief in his thirties who was wearing heavy makeup opposite him and said, "Hello, I am Lin Han. I hope the problem will not be too sharp in the wait. Except for private life, everything else can be done."

"Okay, we don't treat this as an interview, just chat. The content of the chat is relatively simple. First, let's talk about your new book. Everyone wants to know why you want to write "Hippolyon", which contains many Shakespeare and Keats's things, and the connection between each story does not seem to be completely revealed?"

Guo Xiaoyue has real skills to find some problems in a very short time.

Lin Han looked at the recording pen on the coffee table, and he replied with a smile: "I like Keats very much. The idea of ​​this novel also comes from his unfinished long poem, but I am not a poet. I can only use one science fiction story after another to perfect it."

"Actually, you are not bad at writing poetry. I remember you have written several poems that are widely circulated on the Internet, and those poets basically agree with them. Some people even suggest you publish a collection of poems!" Guo Xiaoyue was a little confused. Lin Han's "Seeing or Not", "Facing the Sea, Spring Flowers Blooming", "You are the April Sky on Earth", and "If I Have Not Seen Sunshine" are all very good.

But Lin Han knew how much he had, so he shook his head. These works were found by scouring their hearts. Many other poems exist in this world and there are not many inventory!

"I'd better be a writer. The poets in my eyes are all like poetic immortals and saints. I feel that I'm far from it."

Seeing that Lin Han didn't want to continue this topic, Guo Xiaoyue adjusted the conversation very quickly, "Then how much content has not been released in this "Haiberian"? I think readers are all curious about this question."

Lin Han grinned and published his blueprint: "The whole book of "Haiberian" is composed of the stories of these pilgrims, so it should be finished in September. However, the current plan for the entire series is composed of four books, namely "Haiberian", "The Fall of Heberian", "Andy Mien", and "Andy Mien's Awakening". The next three will be updated according to the situation. There are too many plans at present."

The interview was indeed good. What leaked from Lin Han’s fingers was big information. Who would have thought that "Hippolyan" would be a series? Even the name of each work was thought out. I was prepared for it!

"I haven't read the following content yet, I think it should be a very grand novel. I hope I can see it earlier." Guo Xiaoyue looked at Lin Han and started a new topic: "Now the outside world has a name for you, Teacher Lin. Now I heard that you have indeed become a teacher. Why did you think of teaching in college?"

Lin Han is very relaxed now and does not feel like facing the camera. He is a little stiff all over when he appears in front of the camera. Compared to standing in front of the stage, he prefers to be behind the scenes.

After hearing this question, his answer was very simple: "There are many reasons. First of all, I want to popularize the entire history of world science fiction literature so that more people can like science fiction novels. Secondly, I really like college. I don't have much time to write and deal with people every day, so it's a good thing to have more contact with young people."

This seems to be as old as he is. He is obviously the same age as those graduate students, and maybe the doctoral students at Peking University are older than him.

After the two of them chatted for a long time, Guo Xiaoyue saw that the time was almost over and said, "Now there is still an hour before your plane, how about we talk about the last topic?"

"No problem, what do you want to know?"

"There are people on the Internet who call you a cross-border king. They say that many people in the entertainment industry have the habit of publishing books, but in the true sense, you are the only one who enters the literary world. How do you see the behavior of writers as directors and screenwriters?"

This is actually not an isolated case of Lin Han. In reality, many writers are crossing the border, but they are not as big as Lin Han. He has made movies in the literary circle and published novels in the entertainment circle!

In the past few years, some famous writers went to colleges and universities to teach, and being professors attracted attention in the literary world. But what really caused discussion was "writing and being good is guiding".

Many writers have changed careers or cultural identities and entered the film and television industry, and have become directors or screenwriters. This is becoming a new trend in the literary world!

The work of writer Han Ming, "There Will Be A Time", successfully transformed into a director, while another chicken soup writer Zhang Jiale also directed a "Ferryman", and the female writer Hai Yan became the screenwriter of the TV series "Langya Bang".

A little earlier writer Wang Shuo has a large number of works adapted into movies and TV series. The more famous ones are "Sunny Days", "The Story of the Editorial Department", "The Stubborn Lord", "Party A and Party B". Later, he also filmed the movie "Enemy and Son", but he did not make too much splash!

There are more similar foreign writers becoming directors, including French female writer Margaret Duras, Japanese writer Yukio Mishima, Korean writer Li Canghai and American horror writer Stephen King.

Among them, Stephen King is probably the one who is most familiar to the audience and readers. His works include "The Shawshank Redemption", "The Miracle of the Green River", "The Shining", "Ten Days of Danger", "The Witch Carrie", etc. More than 20 movies have been adapted into movies!

Writers cross-border not only as directors, but also as writer Liu Zhenyun, for example, participated in TV variety shows for the first time, joining "Chinese Character Heroes" with Pu Cunxin and Yu Dan, and becoming Chinese Characters Mr.

This kind of cross-border has also caused controversy among writers. Writers go to the entertainment industry, and actors in the entertainment industry want to use the literary circle to improve their style. Is this a literary adventure or a capital game that can't get up early without profit?

"In fact, there are pros and cons to cross-border." Lin Han said after pondering: "First of all, this can bring more opportunities to writers, allowing writers to fully utilize their own creativity, subject value and multi-faceted talents. However, there are also tests and challenges. With the emergence of other identities, the label of writers will gradually become obscene and indifferent to them, and even make people forget that they are still writers."
