    "So you have already taken care of Ye Rong?"

    In the headquarters building of Huayu Company, Li Haitao's office, Chen Feng once again occupied the magpie's nest and sat unceremoniously in Li Haitao's seat, while Li Haitao had no choice but to sit opposite him.

    "Please pay attention to your wording, I just asked her out to drink coffee and catch up on old times."

    Chen Feng stretched out a finger and shook it, correcting Li Haitao's statement.

    "Your chat and reminiscing have been published in newspapers. Do you think this is normal?"

    Li Haitao angrily handed Chen Feng a copy of yesterday's newspaper, in which the scene of him and Ye Rong chatting and drinking coffee was all secretly photographed by the paparazzi.  Chen Feng is a very popular male star in the entertainment industry, and together with the new generation of sexy goddess Ye Rong, although the two really do nothing together, as long as the paparazzi "imagine" a little, a piece of sexy news will be revealed  This is how it was born.

    Chen Feng didn't even bother to read the newspaper, "I'm just buying things in the supermarket now. As long as I chat with the saleswoman, I can make up a lot of stories about being bumped into by those paparazzi, let alone drinking coffee with Rongrong.  ¡±

    Chen Feng already believed Li Haitao when he said this. Although Chen Feng was often involved in scandals, it almost never happened that the media got real evidence. The reports about his private life in newspapers and magazines were all based on  Speculations and conjectures.  Chen Feng has always been cautious on this issue. If he really had an abnormal relationship with Ye Rong, it is estimated that the whereabouts of the two would not be discovered by the media so easily.

    "Then let's talk about this script." Li Haitao did not continue to dwell on this topic, "Why did you suddenly think of writing such a story?"

    Chen Feng shrugged.  "Aren't movies that combine detective, thriller and conspiracy theories very popular nowadays? If it has something to do with religion, the audience will be more than willing to spend money to go to the cinema. "Code" is a good example."

    "But why Sherlock Holmes?" Li Haitao asked: "These days, unless you are a 'super fan' of traditional detective novels, you will hold the large "The Complete Works of Sherlock Holmes" and cannot bear to put it down, right? Maybe you  There is really such a thick set on my bookshelf, but do you dare to say that its function is greater than a piece of wallpaper?"

    Chen Feng did not immediately refute, although the character of Holmes embodies the talent of penetrating the appearance of things with insight.  And his extraordinary ability to discern the truth from the easily confusing tricks has indeed a fascinating charm that spans the ages.  But one thing is beyond doubt, that is, Sherlock Holmes is a fictional character who began to appear in a series of stories and novels created by the British writer Arthur Conan Doyle at the end of the 19th century.  The brilliant detective soon became one of the most enduring figures in popular culture, and his adventures became one of the most widely read hallowed chapters in English-language history.

    But times have changed.  Pipes, walking sticks, black top hats, murder cases, reasoning, and catching the culprit The "original detective" of the 19th century cannot be said to be dead now, but it has become boring and sour.  It is not an exaggeration to say that people put it on the shelf.

    After carefully and thoroughly studying four novels and 56 short stories written by Arthur Conan Doyle, Chen Feng increasingly felt that the Sherlock Holmes story must have new changes today, so he thought of "  The fashionable reason for "travel time", whether a meticulous brain from many years ago can still be invincible in the face of ever-changing technological means and endless high-IQ criminal methods, is a profound proposition that Chen Feng wants to explore in this film.

    In fact, this idea is not Lin Chenfeng¡¯s first. If we say that the deliberate subversion in his film is to better suit the audio-visual language of the new era of commercial blockbusters for big scenes and action requirements, as well as the audience¡¯s commercial psychological appeal.  For the desire for ambiguity and excitement, the classic "detective" image of various periods and countries with "Sherlock Holmes" as the ancestor has never stopped evolving with the times.

    American writers in the middle of the century put him to death and later mutated him into a lonely tough guy who was drunk and dreaming of life and death.  The "big masters" of island country reasoning in the "end of the century" transformed him into "weirdos" ranging from the little Conan to the old man Renzaburo who has no seriousness at all.

    Perhaps the audience has become tired of these changes that have kept pace with the times, so this time Chen Feng restored a traditional Sherlock Holmes on the basis of boldly breaking through the era limitations of the original work.

    "In today's fashionable terms, Sherlock Holmes may be regarded as the first superhero in cultural history, but he won with wisdom. Even today, he is still the most recognized superhero in the world.  An iconic figure, to the point where many people believe that Sherlock Holmes is not a fictional character but a real person.¡±

      Chen Feng explained patiently: "The more you read Conan Doyle's novels, the more you will discover how rich resources Holmes contains. He is very skilled in many skills, such as playing the violin,  He knows kung fu and boxing. He is also a professional fighting master and sword expert. Holmes has a strong sense of morality in upholding justice and bringing bad guys to justice, so he spent almost his whole life  time, just to become an excellent detective. Although predecessors have done a very good job in expressing this character, if placed in a different era background, I think there is still a lot worth exploring in Holmes.  place."

    Li Haitao's twisted brows can be seen from his current conflicted heart. It is really difficult for a classic character like Sherlock Holmes to recreate a classic, because the British drama series "Sherlock Holmes" in the 1980s has already portrayed this character very well.  It's in place, and if future generations want to surpass it, at least in terms of actors, they really can't find anyone with the face and acting skills like Jeremy Brett.

    Furthermore, the detective story of Sherlock Holmes is basically well-known to everyone. It is not easy to carefully restore the style of such a mature script, and the restoration has to be compared with the previous works, especially the British drama "Sherlock Holmes" series, which has attracted  The topic is not just about film quality and effects.  Therefore, whether it is the story or the characters, it is difficult to start from any angle.

    It's not that Li Haitao doesn't trust Chen Feng, but it's a difficult job to remake a classic. It's not easy to restore the original appearance of a classic. It also has to go through the audience's comments or changes after watching it. The subsequent production of the sequel still needs to be negotiated by many parties.  To know.  It can be seen from this that it is indeed not easy to remake a classic, and it is even more difficult to subvert a classic.  It is even more difficult to make it look stylish and allow everyone to re-accept this classic, be elegant but not vulgar, and create a completely reborn effect.  (To be continued)
