The idea of ​​the first movie of "League of Legends" sent by Penguin was to be the background of Frelljord. The protagonist of the story was "Ice Sagittarius. Ashe".

Fan Zhe was not surprised by this.

Ashe is a relatively famous hero under the IP of "League of Legends". She released it very early, and can even be regarded as one of the earliest heroes in the league. In addition, her background story, settings and other things are also one of the more full-bodied heroes.

Moreover, the character Ashe looks more suitable for movie adaptation. When "Fist" sets her, it feels like she has directly set a template for the protagonist.

Growing up in one of the largest tribes on the Freljode Icefield, my mother was the leader of the tribe and she was considered a princess. She went through hardships when she was young, but eventually merged with the power of her ancestors contained in her bloodline, rolled up the longbow made by Zhenbing, and grew into the battle mother and leader of Avarosa, the largest tribe in the north.

The ideas they hold are also very grand. In the snowy world of Frellzowd, I want to build an ideal country, calm the disputes among many tribes, and strive to establish a unified country. I shout every day, "We are a nation," "Frellzowd will be unified again," "Don't treat kindness as weak."...

Such a character is indeed more suitable for film adaptation.

But this is not very consistent with Fan Zhe's previous idea.

In fact, after Ye Jiayi and Penguin and Riot began to contact the film and television copyrights about "League of Legends", Fan Zhe was already considering the movies in this series.

But the first hero he wanted to be was really not Ashe.

This is considering the story background of the movie itself.

The story of "Ice Sagittarius. Ashe" takes place in Freljord, which is a world of ice and snow. The structure of society is also more biased towards a more primitive tribal form.

This kind of subject matter is not very suitable for the opening of the first part. The background world is not conducive to maximizing the audience and is not conducive to unfolding stories in other environments.

On the contrary, Van Zhe himself prefers to make stories in the background of "Demacia", with the protagonist using characters such as Garen, Garwen IV, Zhao Xin and others.

Under the IP of the game "League of Legends", the three heroes mentioned above are quite popular. What's more, the so-called "Demacia" is the most famous force in the LOL world and the most widely known.

From here, starting to expand the entire alliance universe, it should be relatively good choice.

In fact, even the outline of the script, Fan Zhe has a rough draft in his mind.

He wrote his thoughts as an email and sent them to the Penguin.

"I don't think the story of Ice Sagittarius Ashe and Freljord is suitable as our first work to unfold the Alliance Universe. Of course, we will inevitably develop these stories on the ice field in the future, but in the first part, it is better for us to do the concept of "Demacia".

He first pressed down on the development of the Ice Sagittarius, and then wrote down some of his ideas.

"In my conception, I hope that the first work will be based on the war between Demacia and Noxus. From the growth of Garen, Mian Guard and Garvan IV as the main line, I will make the first story."

"The movie will involve war, brotherhood, growth and heroism."

"Of course, the most indispensable thing is the excellent visual effect."

...

This is probably a matter of informing.

According to the agreement, the production of movie projects and what content is done, these are all decided by Dimension Entertainment. Penguin has the right to suggest, but if it is really not optimistic, it can not invest, but Dimension Entertainment has the final say on what to do.

This was what Fan Zhe and Ye Jiayi strongly requested at that time, and the Penguin agreed.

So, at this time, Fan Zhe used their power smoothly.

The Penguin has some doubts.

Zhang Yanping replied to Fan Zhe, and wrote: "I probably agree with what you said, "Demacia" is more suitable for firing the first shot. We have considered it in the past, but... the background of "Freljord" is different from "Demacia". If the movie with Ashe as the protagonist and the results are not ideal, we can also open the background of "Demacia" with a wider and more representative one, and make another one to save the fate of the entire series."

After reading it, Fan Zhe smiled and replied: "We have never considered the failure."

Zhang Yanping was speechless when he saw this news.

Unconsciously, he remembered the last sentence Ye Jiayi left behind when he was negotiating in Shenzhen: "This is what Weidu Entertainment pays, and it is irreplaceable."

The expectations and feelings that people give are exactly the same.

...

On the other hand, after sending the email, Fan Zhe began to convene the screenwriter and design team.

Before this, Fan Zhe did not have League of Legends in the company's next project plan - after all, although he had already had contact with Penguin at that time, he had not yet discussed it, so this matter was not accurate, so Fan Zhe naturally would not do this in the company's project plan.

But now it's different.

The project of "League of Legends" is very important. At the same time, the agreement signed between Dimension Entertainment and Penguin also clearly stipulates that the first film will be completed within two years.

I’m not particularly nervous about making a movie in two years, but it’s definitely not particularly loose.

You should know that Dimension Entertainment has no accumulation of the project of "League of Legends", and everything from script to design has to start from scratch.

Art is the strongest place in Dimension Entertainment. In addition to being the producer, Fan Zhe himself also personally serves as the chief designer of the entire project.

A large number of artists were drawn from various project teams and began to design a lot of content.

There are actually many concept designs about League of Legends on the ‘Fist’ side.

However, there are two problems with those designs. The first is that the quantity is too small. After all, "League of Legends" is a MOBA game. The conceptual setting of the world view is actually useless for the game itself. It is just something that comes with after the game becomes popular.

In addition, in addition to the small quantity, the quality... is not very good either.

At least, in Fan Zhe's eyes, the concept design released by the current "fist" is just that.
