As one of the four famous novels, "Water Margin" not only retains the epic characteristics of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in scale, but also has new developments in narrative structure and language. First of all, "Water Margin" is the first chapter-style novel written in ancient vernacular in the history of Chinese literature. It changed the half-text and half-white writing characteristics of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Journey to the West" and played a crucial role in the development of Chinese novels. Secondly, "Water Margin" is also unique in its narrative. Taking the 120 most widely circulated chapters as an example, the first 70 chapters use smooth writing to introduce each hero one by one. The appearance of the characters is not introduced with a deliberate introduction of time or place, but seamlessly connects without leaving any trace when narrating the story. Then, in the seventy-first chapter of the novel, "The stone slabs in the Loyalty Hall are subject to astronomy, and the heroes in Liangshan Po are ranked", the narrative clues converge into one, and all the rivers finally return to the sea, pushing forward the entire story. Finally, "Water Margin" has also completed the transformation from "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"-style facial makeup to individualization in character portrayal. The protagonist is no longer a perfect person without flaws, but a living person with personality. "One hundred and eight heroes, each with his own face, are similar but have differences, and have differences while maintaining similarities. They truly create typical characters in typical environments. There is no need to write about the person directly, you will know who the person is by observing his words and deeds. ?? Both are strong and brave, Lu Zhishen killed Zhen Guanxi with three punches, the thick * long * wind has fines, brave and strategic, while the black whirlwind Li Kui seems reckless and frank; both are fighting tigers, Wu Song is careful and well-founded in advance and retreat. Li Kui is also impulsive and direct. Therefore, it can be said that Lu Zhishen was wise and brave, and Li Kui was straightforward and brave. Wu Song is fierce and brave. This kind of writing method that combines similarities and differences is often reflected in other characters, which together marks that our country's novels have entered a mature stage in narrative and character creation. However, some literary critics believe that the novel begins to enter a dull period after the 70th chapter. The previously continuous exciting scenes and smooth narratives are no longer seen, and the characters gradually tend to become more facial-like. Those heroes who shined in the previous chapters are no longer there. The heroes seem to be gradually becoming invisible. This is evident from the fact that famous commentators in the Qing Dynasty were a little extreme and completely cut off the content after the 70th chapter. despite this. After Liu Jingting released the first two chapters of the novel, both the editors of "Jiang Lu" and some senior readers were vaguely aware of Liu Jingting's intention. Know that his so-called multi-protagonist challenge is not just about playing a word game. "The concept of thirty-six Tiangang and seventy-two Earthly Evils was mentioned in "Journey to the West". Zhu Bajie is the thirty-sixth Tiangang transformation, and Sun Wukong is the seventy-two Earthly Evil transformations. This book adopts this concept. Reflecting one hundred The reincarnation of the eight demon kings is not unreasonable. This foreshadowing is very accurate. " "It is still an ancient style narrative, and it can be seen that it is in the same vein as "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Journey to the West", but the content and structure are more advanced. "To be flexible." "I can't see anything deeper in just two times, but it can be clearly seen that the book "Water Margin" is very ambitious." "Since starting the single-player mode, Liu Jingting's daily work has been relatively busy. Easily, it happens to be an inverse relationship with Yang Lilu. I type novels three times a day, and spend the rest of the time reading, listening to music, watching movies, and picking up Yang Lilu from get off work. I had meals with Chang Youdao and others, and occasionally participated in discussions and decisions on topic selection. Pay attention to the progress of several adaptation cooperation projects. For example, the adaptation of "Dragon" has signed a formal contract with Haiyang. In addition to Liu Jingting receiving normal royalties, Yingri Culture will participate in investment as usual. This is also Liu Jingting's first official cooperation with Haiyang in the name of the company. Wang Hangan was still excited about this, and he paid for afternoon tea for all the company's employees. Several members of the board of directors of Longchuan Group have always disagreed with Wang Hangan's strategy of "continuously showing favor to Liu Jingting." However, Wang Hangan's performance has improved since he became the general manager of the TV station. and work ability are obvious to all. Even when Liu Jingting served as Xingyue's consultant, Haiyang never suffered a complete defeat. Winning the adaptation rights of "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng" was a classic battle for Wang Hangan. On the other hand, Wang Qisen, chairman of the group, has always spared no effort to support his grandson Wang Hangan. He has to emphasize this idea almost every time he attends the board of directors. "There are no absolute enemies, only absolute interests. Liu Jingting once helped Xingyue beat us out of breath, but this does not mean that we and Liu Jingting will be opposed for life. Knowing current affairs and identifying opportunities are the basic qualities of a businessman. " When Wang Hangan proposed to capture the "Tian Long Ba Bu" project, Wang Qisen relieved some directors and executives at a high-level meeting and asked them to put aside their hatred and prejudice against Liu Jingting. When Wang Hangan finally spoke, he said more simply and straightforwardly:"If we win this project, everyone will get more money this year." Everyone looked at the meaningful expression of the chairman and the confident look of the general manager, and suddenly they were speechless. After all, the reason why Haiyang has been beaten by Xingyue in recent years is because of the unpredictable Liu Jingting? Whether they are directors or senior executives, isn't their fundamental purpose just to get more dividends and get higher ratings? "Dragon Babu" came to the world like a storm. Not to mention the group executives who have been paying attention to this kind of information, even the directors who were just sitting at home waiting for dividends also understood some information. Now that Wang Hangan has snatched the rights to adapt this novel from so many competitors (including Xingyue), apart from being happy that they have chosen an excellent general manager, what else can they complain about? In fact, after Haiyang officially launched the "Dragon Movie" project, some directors made similar suggestions to continue following Liu Jingting's latest work, but Wang Hang'an didn't think so. "First, when we competed for "Tian Long Ba Bu", we have already won against several giants, including CCTV and China Film. We are different from Liu Jingting. He can ignore the pressure of any unit and individual, but we cannot; Second, unlike Liu Jingting, When people cooperate, they should not show too much greed and know how to advance and retreat. As far as I know, in this competition for "Dragon and the Eight Parts", Xingyue Palace Chengpin took the initiative to withdraw from the competition, and even specially asked Liu Jingting to come out to discuss the matter. It shows a considerate company vividly and exquisitely; Third, although Liu Jingting can have no taboos and no oil or salt, he will definitely make some balances and adjustments for personal convenience in the future. I guess his new book must have been in cooperation with CCTV or China Film has negotiated the issue of adaptation rights, so we can¡¯t interfere.¡± There is no doubt that Wang Hangan finally convinced the board of directors with good evidence. In fact, he basically guessed all the possibilities, but Liu Jingting¡¯s new book "Water Margin" This time, we did not choose just one partner, but China Film and CCTV to work together on this TV series. Liu Jingting paid tribute to his predecessors and sold "Water Margin" to CCTV for one yuan. At the same time, Yingri Culture and Huaying participated in the investment. In other words, the production of the "Water Margin" TV series is a three-party cooperation between Liu Jingting, CCTV, and Huaying! This is almost the most powerful collaboration in the history of TV series. After the news was announced, the media vividly described this cooperation as "strong alliance". (To be continued)
