Chapter 700: Ascension

Night, Capital Airport.

He Xin, who was wearing a mask, a velvet hat, and carrying a small bag cross-body, walked out of the gate with the flow of people, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Cheng Hao, who was also covered tightly by a mask and hat, and waved to him again.

He hurriedly walked up to meet him, and said unexpectedly, "Why are you here?"

"It's so late, don't toss others. Hey, you don't have any luggage?"

"I only worked for two days, and I didn't bring anything. ”

"Where's dinner?"

"I haven't eaten, do you have anything at home?"

"I'll help you pack two dishes, just go back and get a bowl of noodles. ”

"Okay, let's go. ”

Walking out of the airport, it was still the champagne-colored Ma Liu, it had been several years, and when I bought it, because this model had just come out, it was quite eye-catching, and now it is outdated.

When I got into the car, there were flashing lights on the opposite side and next to me.

"It's not easy, and there are still people guarding it. ”

In the past few years, the annoying airport photographers have not yet become popular, and the people who are guarding the airport are still paparazzi. Compared with the blatant auctioneer, at least the paparazzi are sneaky and will not affect public order.

"What's so strange about this, I heard Sister Qinqin say that it was early in the morning when she came back last time, and she still ran into paparazzi secretly filming there. ”

"It's not easy...... Ah, who did you just say?" He Xin leaned back in his chair and sighed, and when he came back to his senses, he subconsciously said nervously.

Fortunately, Cheng Hao didn't pay attention, and said with a smile: "Sister Qinqin! It's a coincidence today, I went to SPA with Yaya, and I happened to meet Sister Qinqin there, and we had dinner together today." ”

"Oh. ”

He Xin relaxed a little and pretended to be casual: "What did you talk about, I think you are quite happy." ”

"Gossip, she also said that when you were filming "Qiao's Courtyard", you made people angry and cried several times. ”

"How can it be so exaggerated, it is the collision in creation, I am more reasonable than her, it is normal for her to be unhappy, anyway, I have never seen her cry. He said with a deliberate sense of reason.

"Cut, you're amazing! Fortunately, it's Sister Qinqin, if you change someone else, maybe you will say that you don't respect your predecessors. Cheng Hao glanced at him and snorted.

"Senior? Oh, yes...... Hey, what, shouldn't we change cars?"

As the saying goes: if you say too much, you will lose. He didn't want to have more trouble with Cheng Hao on the topic of Jiang Qinqin, so he deliberately diverted the topic. Looking at the slightly outdated interior of the car, the navigation and reversing sensors are still rear-mounted.

"Why do you change cars, isn't this car very good?" Cheng Hao said in surprise.

Speaking of which, this Ma Liu has been driving for five or six years, but it is also driven in the capital, and everyone has a car when they go out to film, He Xin's current car is the Audi Q7, and Cheng Hao's brokerage company also gave her a Toyota nanny car. Ma Liu spent most of his time parked in the basement of his house, and for such a long time, the mileage had just exceeded 10,000.

It seems that Cheng Hao is reluctant to change.

"No, you said that we are going to get married soon, even if the house is not moved for the time being, the car must be changed. ”

He Xin spread his hands, and then said with a smile: "In this way, I will give you one, even if it is a wedding gift for you, do you think it is a wedding gift?"

"Oh, a car sent me away?" Cheng Hao snorted and said coquettishly.

"Surely it can't be! Didn't we already say that before we got married, we would take care of each other, and when we got the certificate, yours would be yours, and mine would be yours! "This thing looks like a licking dog.

said that after accumulating in the past few years, he is about to become an uncle.

Cheng Hao snorted again with satisfaction, and said, "There's no need to change your name, just add my name." ”

The goods nodded and said with a smile: "Cheng, let's come whatever you say." Oh yes, what kind of car do you like, or I'll buy you a sports car?"

"Forget about sports cars, it's not practical at all. ”

"Then or Land Rover?"

I have to say that Land Rover, a large-displacement oil tiger, is very marketable in the circle. The last time he saw Song Jia, he drove such a big off-road car like a small tank.

Cheng Hao frowned and said, "Don't be so ostentatious...... Actually, I think this car is very good, and there is really no need to change to any car. Didn't you often say in the past, it's better to buy a car than to buy a house, buy a car for half the price, and buy a house can increase in value!"

"The house is enough. Didn't you say that after we got married, you have to go to work seriously, and the car must be decent to be worthy of your identity as a Tokyo actress. ”

"It's precisely because you have to go to work that you need to keep a low profile, do you understand? Don't you see that Mr. Hao is still driving that Passat!" Cheng Hao said with a blank look.

"That's different, Brother Hao is thinking about being an official now, you are an artist, let's eat according to our ability, pay taxes according to the rules, and our income is legitimate and legal, what else do you need to be low-key?"

"Alas, I don't even bother to tell you!"

Nagging along the way home.

"It's been a busy day, let's take a shower first, and I'll give you a note. ”

"Hey!"

The woman who is about to get married is different, and she has suddenly become much more virtuous. The goods answered, and happily went into the bathroom.

took a hot shower, and the whole person was refreshed.

"At the foot of the world is my lovely hometown, and when I leave her, it is as if the cantaloupe has broken the seedlings ......"

He came out of the bathroom humming "Missing My Comrades", this song was sung by Chen Guilin played by him in the play, and he has been practicing during this time, so that the song does not leave his mouth.

The dish has been served, just hot, steaming, a plate of braised large intestines, a plate of red oil belly shreds, and a plate of freshly mixed cucumbers.

"Hey, you're really greasy to eat tonight, don't you lose weight?"

"Nope!"

Cheng Hao came out of the kitchen with noodles and said with a smile: "Sister Qinqin took us to a private restaurant for dinner today, I heard that the braised large intestine and red oil belly are particularly authentic, I was embarrassed to order it, I didn't receive a call from you halfway, and when I heard that you were coming back, I packed two copies under your banner." I've tasted a few bites, and the taste is very good, and it tastes so good with noodles!

As soon as he heard the private restaurant that Jiang Qinqin took them to, He Xin knew which one it was, because he had also been there, and more than once, it was a Shanghai-style private restaurant, and braised large intestine and red oil belly were the signature dishes of that restaurant.

The large intestine is crispy and glutinous, and the belly is crispy, as if it was the first time he eats it, he tasted two bites, gave a thumbs up and nodded violently: "Sure enough, the taste is very positive, well, delicious!"

"It's delicious, hee-hee, I'm also stained. ”

Cheng Hao specially squeezed a cup of cucumber juice for himself and sat next to him to eat it with him.

To be honest, at this time, He Xin was really a little guilty in addition to his weak heart, and at the same time, he couldn't understand how Jiang Qinqin got together with his fiancΓ©e.

"What do you want, eat it!"

Hearing Cheng Hao's urging, he realized that he had unconsciously stopped his chopsticks.

"Oh!"

He quickly took a bite of the noodles and excused: "How do you feel after reading the script of "Durala"?"

"It's good, didn't I tell you on the phone!"

"Well, I think there are a little more love elements, not enough workplace elements, and a little bit different from the theme of the original book. He thought for a moment.

In fact, coming back to read the script was an excuse for Cheng Hao, and Xue Xiaolu had already sent the electronic file to his mailbox.

In his previous life, he was an ordinary audience, and watching movies and dramas was just a lively one. I remember that when I watched "Durala" at that time, the most impressive thing was Mo Wenwei, Wu Peici, Li Ai and others, with long legs full of screens, which were very eye-catching. And the heroine Lao Xu's radish legs, flat breasts, swimming lap waist, and black meat are particularly spicy.

It can be said: there is no harm without contrast!

Wang Wei, who looks stumbling and has a pair of small and godless eyes, either has a problem with his eyesight, or he has a heavy taste, otherwise he wouldn't let go of those long legs and gnaw on that ball of black meat.

But now that he thinks back on the plot, he looks at it more from a professional perspective, especially after he has read the original book, but finds that the original version of "Durala" is really full of loopholes in the plot.

First of all, there is a problem in the concept, this is a workplace drama, from a macro perspective, it tells the story of a "Chinese dream".

The Chinese dream is the rise of a great power externally, and the dream of entering the middle class internally. According to the description in the original book, it is the great Durala, in today's China, she has depicted a beautiful scenery of Huangliang after entering a foreign company for countless readers.

Durala's story should be built on the structure of a lucky female Xiaoqiang like a snail "I want to climb up step by step", interspersed with a cheesy but not flattering office romance.

But the original version simply cut the part of Durala's workplace success to the framework of only a love story, and coordinated the whole movie with encounters, relationships, misunderstandings, and reunions.

The work that passes by, the inexplicable promotion, and the fragmentation of workplace elements make people feel as unreal as child's play. "Durala's Promotion" was completely adapted into "Durala's Fishing for Golden Turtles".

Of course, Xue Xiaolu's script is not so mentally retarded, but the elements of love are still a bit noisy. From the first draft of the script, it can be seen that according to the description in the textbook "The Archetype": "Myth as the basis of the common human experience provides the writer with an inexhaustible model of archetype, and it is through the replacement and use of mythological archetypes that it is rooted in the entire human culture and understood and appreciated by all mankind." The film script, as a form of expression, also embodies this. ”

The prototype of Xue Xiaolu's script is undoubtedly from the immortal fairy tale "Cinderella" by the Brothers Grimm. According to the model of "Cinderella", there is basically a particularly vicious stepmother, the stepmother makes Cinderella suffer and is bullied, but Cinderella always suffers willingly, gets the help of the gods, gets a beautiful dress and a pair of beautiful shoes, participates in grand festivals and wins the favor of princes or kings and other powerful people, and finally lives happily ever after.

To put it bluntly, it is a composite of the story of tribulation and the story of the turning of fate, which contains the themes of suffering and salvation. In other words, the crucifixion in "Durala" can be understood as struggle, and salvation is the search for the meaning of promotion.

So what is the meaning of this pursuit of promotion? The answer given by "Cinderella" is for three meals a day; Xue Xiaolu's answer to Du Lala's shown in the script is beautiful clothes, cars, houses, and love; but since it is the Chinese dream, He Xin thinks that we should not be so materialistic, and have to have something sublimated, such as dedicating ourselves to something called a career.

He told Cheng Hao his thoughts, and Cheng Hao was stunned for a moment, and finally stared at him with incomprehensible eyes.

"What are you doing?" He Xin said in surprise.

I also subconsciously touched my face, thinking that something had eaten on my face.

"Wow, husband, when did you become so level?" Cheng Hao exclaimed with wide eyes.

"Cut, you know, don't forget "Latent" and "The Wind", I am both screenwriters!" He Xin said with a smug face.

He is indeed very proud, "Latent" and "The Wind" said that he plagiarized the original version, but "Du Lala" is different, he completely put aside the original work, and sublimated it on the basis of the first draft of Xue Xiaolu's script.

Instead of being like in the original, Miss Durala, who has turnip legs, flat chest, swimming lap waist, and black meat, is still content to show off the material products she swept away, such as Armani, D&G, and Mazda trotting, as if she was desperately motivated for this pile of flashy and empty. Her DB is so blown up that everyone speaks with English words, but the audience doesn't know what kind of company it sells from beginning to end.

"The pursuit of the meaning of promotion is then sublimated to the pursuit of the meaning of life! So what is the meaning of life? Cinderella said that a woman is to marry a good prince in this life. And Du Lala can't think that a woman in this life is to have a high salary and marry a diamond king at the same time, right? It should be that in the face of the temptation of success and the pursuit of successful men, she has been lost and imitated, but in the end she bravely ripped off the coat of vanity and found herself!" He Xin pretended to be forced.

Cheng Hao's eyes were full of little stars, but he still asked with doubts: "Then what about her and Wang Wei, can't they be together again?"

The thing shrugged and said, "I don't know about this, this needs to be set by the screenwriter." I came back to talk to Mr. Xue about the director and the script. ”

Cheng Hao was enthusiastically boiled by what her husband said, which completely sublimated the theme she originally imagined. If the women in "Cinderella" obey the rule of men, and Xue Xiaolu's script still has a little bit of male rule, then according to He Xin's ideas, it is completely breaking the traditional Cinderella complex, reflecting the reconstruction of contemporary women, establishing women's strong self-confidence, stepping out of the traditional barrier of patriarchy, and truly becoming a woman herself.

"Hey, why don't you play this Wang Wei?" she said excitedly.

"Me?"

He Xin hurriedly shook his head and said: "It's not suitable, don't say that I don't have the temperament of a domineering president, even if I have, the two of us always appear in a film, and the audience will get bored." ”
