Chapter 385: The Difficulty of Screenwriting

……

"I want to die!"

"No, you don't want to!"

"I'm damned!"

"You don't deserve to die, you don't count!"

The conditions on the filming site were poor, and the crew members were squatting on the excuse to eat boxed lunches, and the leading actors were treated a little better, so they set up a few small round tables in the middle of the Republic of China Street, and more than a dozen stir-fried dishes were placed on the table.

The quarrel came from the foreign goods store on the street, not filming, but Cao Fang was dragged over by Du Ruohui, one of the heroines, as soon as he finished eating, to study the script.

Everyone looked back from time to time, the field workers and others exchanged their heads and ears, feeling very fresh and a little gloating, the screenwriter was forced to change the play by the actors on the scene to see a lot, but few dared to shout with the actors, Cao Yifang is obviously different, after all, people are also big stars.

As for the leading actors, they exchanged glances with each other, each with their own thoughts.

The most calm is only Liu Meng, and a hardcore beauty Luo Ying who plays the eldest sister Ming Spiegel, Luo Ying is a related household stuffed by the investor, but her acting skills are really good, the two ignored the noise of Cao Fang and the two, bowed their heads and talked softly.

On the side of the street, there are clean shops without any props.

Du Ruocheng was wearing a cheongsam in a costume, poked by the door like a model, clasped her hands, and her face was gloomy: "I have read the script badly, the story is good as a whole, and the role of Yu Manli is also very charming. ”

Cao Fangfang was aggressive, and glared: "Do you think it's appropriate for you to change the script after the drama has started filming? Add or subtract the scene, the number of episodes will change in the end, and you don't care about the scenes, budget, and these? Besides, I still recommend you to play this role, it's not good for you to make such a fuss, Du Ruoxian?"

Du Ruoxian's tone softened: "So I'm not discussing with you, I know that there are actually a lot of such situations, many classic dramas are grinded out by actors little by little, and screenwriters are also people, and there will be blind spots......"

Cao Fang felt very tired and didn't bother to talk nonsense with her, "You tell the director, if the director agrees, ......"

Du Ruocheng quickly blocked the words behind him: "The director thinks it's OK, he asked me to come to you." ”

A wave of anger rushed to the Tianling Gai, and Cao Fang immediately said angrily, "Director he ......" Then he realized that the impact was not good, and his voice was low, but his body language and expression were extremely exaggerated, poked his temple, and said in a low voice: "The director has a brain watt, right?"

Du Ruocheng is still chattering, "The temperament of Yu Manli's character is like a manzhu sawa flower, it should bloom on the bank of the Lechuan River, she must wither before it can be poignant, otherwise the foreshadowing of this relationship line will have a feeling of anticlimactic, there should be no compromise with the audience here, it should not be a happy ending......"

The advantages and disadvantages of this woman are two sides of the same coin, she has acting talent, enthusiasm for acting, and she will also be extremely sharp, and she will selfishly strive for the most perfect presentation in her mind for her favorite role, to some extent, Du Ruocheng has more potential to be a drama bully than Cao Yifang.

Cao Fangfang is depressed in his heart, he just wants to change Yu Manli's ending, so he doesn't let this character die, not entirely for his own comfort, but he wants to give the tragic scene to another heroine a little more, this is a balance in the screenwriter's heart, he hopes that each character is interesting and charming, not one is particularly strong, and the other is like chicken ribs.

But I have to admit that screenwriters do have blind spots, and Du Ruoheng is not unreasonable, surviving actually reduces the charm of Yu Manli's character.

But he can't change it, Cao Fangfang has always believed that it is taboo for actors to modify the script without authorization, and it is easy to ruin the screenwriter's hard work.

Besides, as he just said, this matter involves the whole body, even if the director has a bad brain and can agree, he has to close the prison door here...... Besides, this director Qin Lei may also be troublesome to her, so he kicked the ball over, and he didn't want him to really make changes.

"Don't think about it, you will toss other dramas in the future, and the script I wrote will not change a word. ”

Du Ruocheng still wanted to fight again, but Cao Fang compared an X in front of him, and accentuated his tone: "Do you understand? No, no, no, impossible! You can't die, you have to live a long life, a hundred sons and thousands of grandchildren!"

Du Ruocheng was silent, hung her head and shook it, then snorted and left with her hands.

Cao Fang breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said: "This little girl's emotional intelligence is also a little touching...... and then comforted himself: "Forget it, don't be angry, don't go crazy, you can't live, most of the best actors are a little mentally retarded......"

……

"I don't give a damn. ”

This time it's Tan Yan.

I went to bed at half past twelve last night, got up at four o'clock this morning to put on makeup, and filmed until twelve o'clock at noon to rest, Cao Fang was tired enough, and he was still hurrying to memorize the script at this time, Tan Yan, one of the heroines, suddenly rushed in front of him and began to make unreasonable demands.

Cao Yifang put the script on his face and lay quietly in his exclusive recliner without saying a word.

After a long time, he secretly moved the script away and took a look.

Tan Yan was still standing, condescending.

Cao Fang's anger value rose from 20% to 50%, people have a bad temper when they are tired, he tried his best to control himself, and his tone was steady, "Tan Yan, I don't want to tell you what I said to Du Ruoheng yesterday, I am very tired, and I have to memorize the script for the afternoon after resting for a while...... The main line of changing roles is a big deal, and it is impossible for you to do whatever you want. ”

In fact, Tan Yan is still smarter, she is not like Du Ruoxian, she really wants to help her character change her life.

She just wants to add drama.

Tan Yan knows that it is very common to change the script with the screenwriter of the group, although Cao Yifang is not an ordinary screenwriter, but after all, he is the screenwriter of this drama, and he is the only screenwriter!

They're kind of a friend!

The boss of the production company has a good relationship with him!

The directors listen to him!

Reasonable requests, at least negotiable, right?

From a psychological point of view, how do you make it easier for a person to accept her request? So she wants to make an excessive request first, and then lower the bar and make a less excessive request.

So her attitude softened, squatted on the edge of the recliner with a smile, and said softly: "Then let's do it, Cheng Jinyun can die, but don't you think the emotional line is not enough......?

Seeing that Cao Fang didn't speak, she moved closer again, pinched her index finger and thumb together, and made a gesture similar to her heart, "Just add this point, just a little bit, and I will die as I deserve." ”

Cao Fang turned his head stiffly, expressionless, "Before I go crazy, please, leave completely." ”

Tan Yan left with a frustrated face, happened to pass by Zhang Yang, and bumped into him.

Zhang Yang looked back, stepped forward and smiled at Cao Fang, "What's wrong with Tan Yan, what did you say to her?"

Cao Fang sat up and threw over a bottle of Red Bull, "Refresh." ”

Cao Fangfang looked loveless, pulled the pull ring, took a few big sips, and wiped his mouth: "It's nothing, I lost ...... than tongue twisters."

"Oh...... That's right. Zhang Yang obviously had something to say, and he casually commented a few words: "She is good at everything, but she is too competitive and competitive, not that I said, girl, gentleness is the most powerful knife." ”

Cao Fang looked at his thoughtful expression, and had a bad premonition: "Zhang Yang, if you have something, just say it." ”

"Oh, it's fine. Zhang Yang turned his face, and looked at his somewhat serious face, which suddenly bloomed like a daisy, and was extremely brilliant: "Hey, hey, hey......"

"Not a word. Cao Fang said decisively.

Zhang Yang's expression suddenly froze, "Uh...... Actually, I just think Ah Cheng can go to the military academy to rescue ......"

Cao Fang lowered his head and pointed into the distance: "Get out." ”

"Okay~嘞~" Zhang Yang jumped away.

A real man should learn to cover up his regrets with two coercions.

Zhang Yang is very good.

At this point, fatigue is 60% and rage is 70%.

……

That night, after the filming was over, Chen Xuanyi sat silently next to the tired and paralyzed Cao Yifang, watching him silently.

Cao Fangfang was gnawing on the chocolate bar bitterly to replenish his energy, glanced at him, and said weakly: "The oil head is really handsome." ”

Chen Xuanyi sat up straight: "Thank you." ”

Cao Yifang waited for the later text, but Chen Xuanyi didn't speak, just stared affectionately, Cao Yifang couldn't hold back, and said with a bitter face: "Big brother, you won't embarrass me as well, right?" Minglou has enough scenes, and the script is perfectly shaped, so there is nothing that can be modified, right?"

Chen Xuanyi said: "I don't want to change. ”

"Oh......" Cao Fang was still cautious, looked him up and down a few times, and said suspiciously: "Then what are you...... What are you doing here?"

Chen Xuanyi said seriously: "Seeing that you have been working hard recently, I want to comfort and comfort you." ”

After being devastated and tortured by many people, the nervous Chen Xuanyi at the moment actually looks very intimate and cute, although his so-called comfort is actually sitting next to him and staring at himself desperately, but at least the starting point is good, right? !

At least people don't want to change the script, right?

The only good man left!

Cao Fang hugged hard and patted Chen Xuanyi on the back a few times, "Thank you, thank you...... The world is so cold, only the comfort of my brother is still a little warm......"

The corners of Chen Xuanyi's mouth tugged at a hint of a smile, "Oh, there's one more thing." ”

"What's the matter?"

"The director told you to come over for a meeting. ”

Cao Fang was puzzled: "What kind of meeting?"

Chen Xuanyi struck a blow in his heart: "Change the script." ”

Syllable!

The remaining half of the chocolate bar was thrown on the ground suddenly, smashed to pieces, Cao Fang's fatigue value increased to 80%, and his anger value soared to 90%, "Change it, change it, change it!

……

In fact, it still has to be modified in the end.

Cao Fangfang was a well-behaved and good trick most of the time in his previous life, and he failed to become a real big-name star when he died, so he was naturally not qualified to propose to revise the script.

But there is no need to temporarily modify the script of the crew, one in a hundred.

Because Cao Yifang is now famous and imposing, and he facilitated the filming of this drama, most of the leading actors eat favors, and he also has a very personal relationship with Miao Yingsong, the boss of the producer, so there is a phenomenon of inverted status in the crew.

Producer Miao Yingsong is the shopkeeper, and the director Qin Lei, who should have had infinite power, has neither the business confidence to look down on the crowd nor the capital support to bring capital into the group, to put it bluntly, he is to help Miao Yingsong work, of course he does not want to offend the Cao side who is in full swing.

But he now has two reasons, he must urge Cao Fang to make some minor adjustments to the script.

First, Qin Lei's control over the overall shooting situation is not good, only with an exceptionally well-prepared and very well-organized crew, can the venue, set, props, actors, and plot be harmonious and happy, and there will be no problems, otherwise any of the troubles will have to be made up by the screenwriter adjusting the content of the script.

For example, there are major differences between the location and the description of the script, or the stunts do not meet the requirements of the script, or some clues of the story are found to have logical problems during the filming process......

In the film and television dramas directed by Qin Lei, there are often many such problems, which is also the norm in the industry, so many screenwriters are reluctant to follow the group now, too tired, too bitter and aggrieved.

Second, big-name actors want to modify the plot and increase the scenes.

Du Ruocheng and Tan Yan are still small coffees, real big coffees, and there is only one person in the crew.

Cui Guanhai.
