"May I ask why the four of you, including Shaofeng as screenwriter, announced your withdrawal from the 'New Journey to the West' crew?" asked the reporter.

  "Why? The reason is simple: I don't like outsiders interfering in internal affairs." - Shao Feng.

  "Is it that Yu Qiyuan, the director, interfered with the script, which led to the dissatisfaction of the four screenwriters and their collective withdrawal?" This reporter really dares to think.

  "Of course not, Director Yu is a very talented director who has made many excellent works, this point is undeniable, but it's just that there are some people who don't see clearly." Although the four of them, including Shao Feng, were top-notch in the screenwriting industry, Yu Qiyuan was a great director, and they didn't dare to fire at him.

  "Can't see clearly, can you elaborate?" The reporter was very interested and kept writing in his notebook.

  "Recently, Yu Dao announced that a so-called genius writer, Su Xiechen, an absolute outsider, had joined the scriptwriting team. This is the real reason why we four left the 'New Journey to the West' crew." Shao Feng naturally didn't dare fire at Yu Qiyuan, but firing at Su Xiechen was something he dared to do.

  "You may feel unfamiliar with the name Su Xianchen, so let me introduce him to you. He is from Yangcheng and has written a book called 'The Legend of Wukong' which was also serialized in newspapers. Perhaps he does have some talent, but I want to tell this genius writer that while there may be some commonalities between screenplays and novels, being a good writer doesn't necessarily mean you're a good screenwriter."

  "This genius writer relied on that Arabian Nights-like imagination to confuse Yu, and actually made Yu believe in this unrealistic idea. Even if they really shot it according to his fanciful idea in the end, it would still fail." Shao Feng emphasized the four words "genius author" particularly heavily.

  Four people quit from the original screenwriter team is a very sensational thing, and with Shao Feng's words in front of the reporter, this event became even more explosive.

  Every media outlet is crazily re-posting this news: "Before the plan for 'New Journey to the West' has even started, four well-known screenwriters have successively quit. Can a 14-year-old outsider write a complete script?" — Tianxing Newspaper

  The Tianxing Daily test is not about whether you can write a good script, but whether you can write a complete script. In other words, even if Su Rixing writes one out, it's definitely not going to be a good script, just see if he can write a complete script.

  Shaofeng frankly said that an outsider cannot write a good script, Yu Qiyuan's choice of director was a failure, and CCTV's big production "New Journey to the West" will be stillborn. —— Movie Weekend

  The comments on Movie Weekend were even more direct, thinking that Su Xincheng, an outsider, couldn't even finish the script, let alone Yu Qiyuan making a movie.

  "New Journey to the West" filming crisis, CCTV says there may be a change of director. —— Movie Double Punch

  All sorts of news reports about the decline of singing are emerging one after another.

  There is also another news report "The screenwriter team disintegrated, and the talented writer Su Shichen can't hold on alone"

  "According to reliable sources, the genius writer Su Xichen caused the collapse of the screenwriting team, but director Yu Qiyuan chose Su Xichen again. Before contacting him, he would have chosen an outsider as a screenwriter. The news that Su Xichen's parents are high-ranking officials at CCTV seems to be confirmed."

  According to rumors, director Yu Qiyuan will terminate the contract with genius writer Su Shichen and create a new scriptwriting team.

  Yu Qiyuan will fire this genius writer and reorganize the scriptwriting team with Shao Feng.

  "The genius screenwriter will be fired, and the title of China's number one young screenwriter will cease to exist."

  These messages all said that Su Shi Chen would be fired, but on the afternoon of the same day, Yu Qi Yuan posted a message on Xin Xing: "Su Shi Chen is indeed worthy of being called a genius writer, with creativity beyond ordinary people, and it's very pleasant to cooperate with him. I believe that soon everyone will see a wonderful plot of 'New Journey to the West', which is worth looking forward to."

  Yu Qiyuan didn't stop there. He also utilized his connections to accept an exclusive interview at a familiar news agency.

  "It was very pleasant working with Su Rui-Chen, and the rumors that I wanted to fire Su Rui-Chen and reorganize the scriptwriting team are completely unfounded."

  "Some people say that the genius writer Su Xichen is just an amateur and can't even finish writing a complete script."

  "In the screenwriting industry, Su Release is indeed an outsider, but his creativity has left me in shock. He's even stronger than many professional screenwriters, and this aligns with the concept of remaking, creating new things that leave audiences in awe."

  "Is the script done yet? Won't the 'Journey to the West' crew ask for another screenwriter's help?"

  "Yes, one screenwriter is enough for the team. I've heard some news that says it's hard to support a lone tree or something like that. What I'm doing is telling those gossip reporters that it's not about being unable to support a lone tree, but rather turning the tide with sheer force."

  "Finally, please ask Director Yu to talk about his expectations for 'Journey to the West'."

  "Don't worry about the script, it's already in the works. I've also discussed the direction of the new play with Su Xichen, and I'm really looking forward to it. I believe that when it's filmed, it will definitely satisfy all the audience. And when 'New Journey to the West' is released, you won't be calling Su Xichen just the author, but the screenwriter."

  Those media outlets that touted Yu Qiyuan would be kicked out of the crew did not expect him to support Su Zhenchen so strongly, this is a complete slap in the face. However, the media also counterattacked saying Yu Qiyuan has fallen into the crisis of being fired by CCTV and is on the same boat as Su Zhenchen, which is why he is supporting Su Zhenchen so desperately.

  However, CCTV later issued a statement saying "Yu Qiuming is a top-notch director at home. We believe that the classic novel 'Journey to the West' directed by Yu Qiuming will definitely radiate new vitality."

  Now those media have nothing to say, all of them shifted to another sequence, calling an outsider who has never written any script works to independently compile a script is completely impossible.

  There is a story behind why Yu Qiyuan supports him so strongly——

  "Director Yu, I've already organized the background information on the direction." Su Xichen took out a stack of A4 paper bound with a stapler.

  "It's still quite thick" Yoo Chil-yong took over a thick stack of A4 paper "How many words?"

  "Over 400,000 words, nearly 500,000 words, from Pangu creating heaven and earth to Journey to the West."

  In fact, the later generations of the earth about the Honghuang network wrote 400-500,000 words is really a small matter, more than one million or two million is also completely possible. However, creating "Honghuang" was for writing a script background, and the background is just to explain things, without a protagonist, even more can't water, so it was condensed to over 400,000 words.

  There is another point that Su Shi Chen paid special attention to, many of the Earth's Wandering Flow are very fond of Black Buddhism and Hei Zhuan Ti Jie Yin, but Su Shi Chen cannot do so. Just like in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", although Zhuge Liang was deified, Cao Cao is still a powerful hero. Therefore, Su Shi Chen's main focus is on the hardships of building and teaching the true teachings of Buddhism.

  "How long is this?" Yu Qiyuan was surprised, originally thinking that writing 100,000 words in three days would be good enough, but Su Shicheng had actually written over 400,000 words, close to 500,000 words. How could he not be surprised?

  But how is it possible to write so much in just three days? Is he just scribbling nonsense to get by?

  Su Shilei ignored Yu Qiyuan's suspicious gaze and didn't explain, no matter how much explanation was given, it would all be in vain, whether it looked good or not depended on one's own perspective.

  The "Huanghuang" that has merged with countless streams of Huanghuang is absolutely eye-catching in this world.

  "In the beginning of chaos, all living things were non-existent. The Tao is 'the great expansion has 50 numbers, its usage has 49'. This is the Heavenly Way. Heaven takes away one, and it's called the birth of the first line."

  The first sentence of "Desolate Era" instantly caught Yu Qiyuan's attention, and he muttered to himself, "So, the so-called 'one line of life' that people often talk about is this kind of thing. Escaping with one's life, one line of life, great!"

  As I continued to read on, I became more and more enthralled, savoring every word, completely absorbed in the story. As the plot progressed, I couldn't help but mutter to myself, "Three thousand demon gods, three thousand demon gods who tried to stop the creation of heaven were all killed by Pangu's axe."

  "Pangu's opening of the sky was actually the will of heaven, the axe couldn't withstand the resistance of opening the sky, so it transformed into Pangu's axe, the blade transformed into the Four Swords for Vanquishing Gods, and the handle transformed into the Taiji Diagram. It turns out that the Four Swords for Vanquishing Gods of Tongtian Sect Master and Laozi's Taiji Diagram were all transformed from the Axe of Opening Heaven. Brilliant! What a magnificent imagination!"

  "The primordial lotus that gave birth to Pangu also encountered resistance at the beginning of heaven and earth. The twelve merits golden lotus in Buddhism also originated from it." Time passed slowly, Yu Qiyuan was completely attracted, while Su Shicheng took out his tablet computer to type.

  It wasn't until after a while that Yu Qiyuan let out a pained "Ah~". It turned out that while watching "Hong Huang", Yu Qiyuan had been keeping his head down the whole time. As someone in his fifties, he couldn't compare to young men who stayed up all night playing games online, and his neck was starting to feel sore.

  This is also because "Huang Yu" is too brilliant!

  "No wonder he can become a writer, with such imagination like a deer hanging its horns, connecting Chinese classical legends perfectly, seemingly absurd but reasonable, after reading it I have a feeling of taking myths as history."

  If Yu Qiyuan was just surprised before, then he is completely shocked now. Even if Su Shichen had studied Chinese classical mythology before, it would be impossible to integrate it in just three days, and yet it's so seamless.

  Yu Qiyuan suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, relieved that he had unintentionally watched a movie called "The Legend of Wukong", relieved that he had invited Su Shicheng, and even more relieved that he had chosen the latter between Shao Feng and Su Shicheng.

  Yu Qiyuan was shocked, and it's natural to know that after the publication of this "Honghuang", later critics will compare this book with "Records of the Grand Historian" and "Chu Ci".

  There is a saying that goes: 'The historian's swan song, the unrhymed Li Sao. The myth of the vast expanse, the detective's Bible.' The first part is Lu Xun's evaluation of 'Records of the Grand Historian', while the latter two sentences are later historians' and critics' evaluations of 'Sherlock Holmes' and 'Journey to the West'.

  "The Records of the Grand Historian" written by Sima Qian is almost the pinnacle of historical books, and "Li Sao" is even more so, the pinnacle of Chu Ci.

  That is to say, "Records of the Grand Historian" and "Chu Ci" respectively represent the pinnacle of their own fields.

  Later critics have thus evaluated, affirming that Su Renshan's "Hong Huang" is the pinnacle of Chinese classical mythology, while "The Sherlock Holmes Detective Collection" is the pinnacle of modern detective fiction.

  More than 400,000 words of the manuscript were only read by Yu Qiyuan in about one-third, but this one-third was enough to prove the brilliance of "Huang Huang" and the mysterious mythological background constructed.

  "The Desolate Era is very wonderful, and as the background of New Journey to the West, it's more than enough. However, how to choose, The Desolate Era is a ring linked to another, missing one ring is not allowed, but also can't move all the content written in the book into it." Indeed, what Yu Qiyuan said, this direction is certain, New Journey to the West mainly reveals the Desolate Era, but it's impossible to adopt all the content from The Desolate Era, that would be putting the cart before the horse.

  Su Zhe thought for a long time, scratching his ears and cheeks, but couldn't think of a solution. He felt anxious in his heart, was he going to give up on this direction just because of this?
