Chapter 609: A Spiritual Essay Begins
In the days that followed, Sun Quan occasionally went to the studio or company to deal with a little work, and most of the time was spent writing the plan for a new show.
This is his planned job, and now that "I Am a Singer" is also on the air, and the ratings and word-of-mouth are also quite good, his grandson has obviously become hot these days.
Contact him, contact Salted Fish Studio, and want to make an appointment with him for a variety show planning case.
It's really that the success rate of the variety shows he planned is too high.
One "The Voice of China", one "The Birth of the Drama Spirit", and one "I Am a Singer", the ratings and word-of-mouth of the three programs are surprisingly good.
So far, there has been no miss.
This "no miss" has always been easy to follow.
For example, the barristers in the legal profession who "do not miss a beat" are highly striking.
For example, the big directors in the film and television industry who "don't miss anything......
Wait a minute.
Taking advantage of the current heat, Sun naturally wants to write as many plans as possible to get a vote.
Wouldn't you be stupid?
But in addition to writing the plan, he is also thinking about the next new book, and the idea of writing a supernatural work is getting stronger and stronger.
The corresponding inspiration also emerged, and he thought about writing the plot of the drama "Soul Ferry", but ...... is still the same problem as before, he has watched the drama "Soul Ferry" for too long.
It is estimated that it has been more than ten years, and he only watched an online drama once more than ten years ago, how much plot can he remember?
He still remembers that the male protagonist seems to be born with yin and yang eyes and can see ghosts.
I remember that the second male seems to be a ghost and has a little spell, but in the first plot, there are not many places where spells are used, which may be subject to the investment cost of this drama, and there are not many special effects used in the first part, most of the time it is more like an urban drama.
I still remember whether this drama is the second or the third, anyway, the plot after the first part is getting more and more ridiculous, and in the end, it was originally a mediocre female supporting actress or a heroine from the first part?
In addition, the plot that he can still remember is lackluster, and it is all bits and pieces.
For example, a certain mythical beast came to the world in the form of a human and punished the greedy people in the world with his amazing cooking skills.
The specific method is quite scary, luring the greedy person into his own store, letting the other party bathe and change clothes, and patiently waiting for the food to be served.
The result......
After eating one dish after another, he found that the ingredients used by the chef were all his own meat and offal, and when he ate the last dish, the greedy diner had only one head left, and all the other parts were turned into vegetables and eaten by himself.
......
Sun Quan vaguely remembers a few similar plots, but there are only a few.
And in the past few days, after thinking about it, he still gave up copying the plot of "Soul Ferry", he remembered too little, so instead of copying, it was better to create a supernatural story by himself.
A story suitable for adaptation into a web series.
But the setting of the male protagonist's yin and yang eyes, and the ghost that appears in "Soul Ferry", can be borrowed, because of the supernatural! If the male protagonist does not have yin and yang eyes, he can't see ghosts, unless the male protagonist himself is a ghost, but if the male protagonist himself is a ghost, the reader's sense of substitution will be a little worse, and when it is arranged into a TV series, the male audience's sense of substitution will also be weakened.
There is not only a problem of substitution, but also the problem of love.
Today's online texts are still popular works with multiple female protagonists, if the male protagonist is a ghost, it's a bit ridiculous to fall in love, right?
When it is arranged into an online drama, with the current trend that domestic dramas are popular to make romantic dramas on any theme, the male protagonist is a ghost, and it is not easy to set the heroine.
Anyway, in Sun Quan's opinion, it is very for ghosts to fall in love.
If you don't have a real body, will you still have the idea of falling in love?
Pure spiritual love?
Is that really called love? Isn't it okay to say it's friendship?
......
In this way, a few days later, while writing the plan, Sun Quan started to write the beginning of a new book, which is not much space and the plot is not complicated.
He mainly wanted to try whether his style was suitable for writing supernatural stories, and by the way, he also wanted to try whether he could create a good male protagonist of a supernatural story.
In order to give the reader an unexpected and soul-shaking effect, he wrote this beginning in a warm and sweet direction.
At first glance, the storyline presented at the beginning of this is completely a sweet love story of a hǎu person.
Or rather, it is the daily love of a pair of lovers who are like glue.
It's sprinkled with dog food all over the place, and it's quite unfriendly to single dogs.
How did he write it?
The first scene of the story begins with the sound of a key opening the door, and then the door opens, and the sound of a light switch turning on is heard at the door.
Then the lights came on in the house.
But the situation in the room with the lights on is a little messy, the heroine who just entered the door frowned, reached out and touched the top of the shoe cabinet at the door, and looked at the fingers, the fingertips were all floating ash.
This woman has a sweet appearance, bright eyes and bright teeth, black hair like a waterfall, and her figure is also great, but she has a broken piece of skin on her forehead, a little blood, and her feet seem to be twisted, and when she enters the door, her feet are a little lame.
"Chen Yang! Chen Yang?"
Reaching out and touching the shoe cabinet, the woman who felt a layer of floating ash with her fingertips shouted into the room, leaning against the wall as she shouted, limping inside, with a satchel straddled over her shoulder.
In the living room in front of it, there is a gray sofa with its back to the door, and in front of the sofa is a TV wall with an LCD TV hanging on the wall, and the TV is still playing an advertisement for carved laundry detergent.
Hearing the movement at the door and the call of the woman, there was finally movement on the sofa, and a young man with good facial features and a little handsome got up and looked back, his expression was a little surprised and a little sluggish, his hair was messy, his beard was unkempt, and his eyes were a little dull and a little melancholy.
Seems to be a raunchy decadent youth.
and the woman who was walking towards him, with bright eyes and bright teeth, black hair like a waterfall, and a sweet smile, formed a stark contrast, like the extremes of two personalities.
One is sunny, sweet-smiling, fashionable and beautiful, and the other is melancholy and depressed, with a sluggish expression, sloppy and unkempt.
The man seemed to wake up from a hangover and stared blankly at the woman who was leaning against the wall and walking towards him.
There was no other reaction for a while, and the woman was still talking to him in a brisk tone and a pleasant voice.
"Chen Yang, I haven't been here for a few days, how dirty are you here, there is a layer of dust on the shoe cabinet at the door, haven't you wiped it in the past few days?"
Also, are you drinking again? Didn't you promise me never to drink again? You don't talk much, and I've caught you, right? Come and help me! Why are you stunned? I'm afraid I'll find out you're drinking and scolding you?"
Man...... That is, the actor Chen Yang's eyes finally showed a change, his sluggish expression melted like ice, revealing a doting smile, walked over step by step, slowly walked to the woman, stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, closed his eyes, sniffed her hair lightly, and asked in a dry voice: "Honey, what's wrong with you?
The woman smiled and pushed him away, let him hug her waist, and said with a sweet smile: "Seeing that my forehead is broken and my feet are broken, why don't you go and get the medicine box and bandage me? Alas, I came to you today, I was not very lucky, the bus I was sitting on was hit by another car at the entrance of your community, many people on the bus were injured, the traffic police and ambulances came, many people were watching the excitement, I saw that I had a little skin on my forehead, my foot twisted, no big problem, I didn't stay at the scene and wait for the other driver how to compensate, anyway, I was only a small injury, right? Go get the medicine box! Go and go!"
......
That's roughly what Sun Quan wrote at the beginning.
A young and beautiful woman who came to visit her boyfriend, because the bus she was riding had an accident at the gate of the community, and she was only slightly injured, so she did not stay at the scene of the accident and waited for compensation, but went directly to her boyfriend's residence, and asked her boyfriend to get the medicine box to bandage herself and wipe the bruises and drink.
The woman is very beautiful, not only beautiful, but also has a sweet smile and a pleasant voice.
In contrast, her boyfriend seems to be a little unworthy of her, quite lazy, messy and dusty in the house, doesn't like to clean, drinks and watches TV at home alone at night, and has a scruffy and unkempt beard.
Judging from this opening, this story has no supernatural and terrifying atmosphere at all, and there is no stylistic difference from the beginning of the general urban text.
And this is the effect that Sun Quan wants.
Although he decided to write supernatural texts, he didn't want to write the kind of simple horror pictures that are in third-rate horror movies - plasma flowing.
He was going to write about the supernatural, and he wasn't going to write all about horror.
He wanted to write a kind of text that brought warmth and emotion in the supernatural.
In order to achieve this effect, he needs the plot and characters to be reversed, and when reversed, the reader is moved and shocked.
Therefore, in the first many chapters of this book, he doesn't plan to write a little horror element, everything must be warm and sweet, but when the plot is reversed later, when the reader recalls the warm and sweet plots and pictures in the front, he suddenly feels creepy and deeply moved.
This effect is not easy to achieve.
In his conception, the male protagonist who appears at the beginning has been stimulated by yin and yang eyes, the young beautiful woman with a sweet smile, his girlfriend...... In fact, he died in a car accident seven days ago.
And she herself didn't realize it, she just thought that the car accident had just happened, and that she just had a little skin on her forehead and a sprained foot, and that was it.
She came to her boyfriend Chen Yang according to her previous thoughts, came to see him, came to spoil him, and asked him to help her treat wounds and sprains.
The actor Chen Yang knew that she was dead, today was her first seven, and her ghost was back, but he pretended that she was still alive, immersed in the atmosphere of sweetness with her, and was unwilling to extricate himself.
