Chapter 532: Let's Catch the Golden Ao with the Bait
"Screenwriter Nim, I want to know, what kind of person is Yurin?"
After solemnly thanking him repeatedly, Hyomin finally threw out the question that had been haunting her for a long time.
Yurin is the character she played in "Parasite".
The character setting of this play is very special, the protagonist is actually an underage child Xiaobin, and Changhuan and Reni, who seem to be male and female, should actually be regarded as supporting roles. And the second female Yu Lin occupies fewer scenes than Xiaobin and Reni, but slightly more than Changhuan......
In other words, the order of importance of the characters in this drama is as follows: Xiaobin, Hyomin's aunt Reni, Aunt Xiaobin's sister Yulin, and Xiaobin's uncle Changhuan......
However, the character design of the character of Yurin is incomplete in the play, which leads to many doubts in the process of studying the role.
"Hyo-minxi, I think it might be more appropriate to change your question, for example, to ask like this - 'What kind of person should Yurin be'?"
After hearing Xiao Min's question, Duan Shanshan thought for a few seconds, but when he spoke, he didn't answer directly.
In his philosophy, whether it is a film or television drama, the characters are in the service of the story. In the process of creation, you first need to clarify what kind of story you need to tell, and then you can build the character design according to the theme of the story.
To give the simplest example, let's just say Guan Yu - if in a story with Liu Bei as the main perspective, Guan Yu should be portrayed as a loyal sibling brother who can entrust his wife and children; when the main perspective is changed to Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu is a senior in the workplace, a high and powerful position, and he is not inferior, and he needs to take extra care to appease his emotions; what if the main perspective is Sun Quan? Guan Yu is a general of another country whose position is almost hostile, deliberately insulting himself, destroying bilateral relations, and unreasonably occupying his own territory......
What kind of person Guan Yu "is" is something that historians consider, and what kind of person Guan Yu "should" be is the job of the author or screenwriter.
Xiaomin frowned, thoughtfully, and smiled apologetically after pondering for a long time: "I'm sorry, screenwriter nim, can you be more specific?"
Liu Kewei, who was sitting beside Duan Shanshan, couldn't help but lean over, took the script in front of Xiaomin, and looked at it again.
Duan Shanshan's revised script, he read it as soon as he got it. He can roughly understand what the story says, but if he wants to analyze what is good and bad in this script, or how this character is and what that character is, he has to be blind.
Although he has entered the university, he has only taken Korean classes for a week at the language college, and he has never heard a single professional course related to acting arts, so he is basically a layman.
At this time, he couldn't help but put forward his own needs: "Uncle Duan, you can analyze it specifically, it's better to be plain, I also want to hear it." β
Duan Shanshan glanced at Liu Kewei, it was originally at his instigation that Liu Kewei decided to try to develop in the entertainment industry, this was the first time he saw this curly hair actively show his desire to explore and learn in the field of acting.
This is a good thing, at least it's better than being discouraged and becoming a rice worm with no goal because of losing the position of producer!
Duan Shanshan felt that he should vigorously support Liu Kewei's new ambitions.
So he immediately decided to adjust his thinking and shift the main target of communication from Xiaomin to Liu Kewei.
"First of all, let's analyze that Yurin is a high school junior living at her sister and brother-in-law's house - what does this mean?"
Once the starting point was determined, Duan Shanshan quickly found the direction to cut into and began to talk eloquently.
Judging by the age of the two sisters, Renee and Yurin, if nothing else, their parents should be alive.
It is reasonable to assume that the parents are alive, perhaps because they are working abroad, or because they live in the countryside, so they are forced to entrust the younger daughter to the care of the eldest daughter.
But Changhuan once mentioned in the play that he is responsible for Yu Lin's living expenses, which doesn't make sense - even if the parents are not around, there is no reason for the eldest daughter and eldest son-in-law to raise the younger daughter! Even if you can board at your brother-in-law's house for free, shouldn't your parents provide the monthly food expenses?
From this detail, it can be judged that Renee and Yurin's parents must have had an accident and are not in this world.
As for the cause of death of the parents, the biggest possibility is that it was a traffic accident, resulting in the two parents who should have been alive, neither of them could stay.
In the plot, the sisters do not express their longing for their deceased parents and their sad emotions. The most plausible explanation for this is that the accident happened many years ago, and time has diluted the grief.
In other words, Yurin's parents died when she was a child, and she was raised by her sister. Therefore, Renee is also a sister and a mother to Yulin.
This is also the reason why Yulin knows that her brother-in-law covets her, but she still stays in this family with no anger: first, she has nowhere to go, and second, she can't let go of her sister, the only relative.
Although Yurin is emotionally dependent on her sister, her sister cannot belong to Yurin alone. The appearance of the brother-in-law led to the inevitable estrangement between the sisters. In the world of the elder sister, the younger sister is forced to take a back seat.
My sister knows this in her own heart, so when her sister and brother-in-law make love, she hides in her room and puts on headphones to read. When she felt lonely, she began to raise small pets to dispatch loneliness.
The elder sister gradually stopped understanding Yulin, but still wishfully thought that Yulin was still the innocent and innocent child in her impression, and Yulin was also alienated and neglected, and slowly developed a faint resentment towards her sister.
β¦β¦
Duan Shanshan's words completely reshaped the role of You Lin, who was only briefly outlined in the script. And the fullness of the details far exceeds the scope of the script description.
Listening to this description, Hyomin seemed to see the character of Yurin appear vividly in front of his eyes, including details of his family background, personality, preferences, temperament, etc., and he could feel it at a glance.
"Thank you for your kind guidance, screenwriter nim!"
Coming back to his senses, Hyomin expressed his heartfelt thanks for the first time, and then sighed and said, "It would be nice if you could take the time to be there during the shooting!"
"Hah, I'm not a member of the crew, how can I just run to the crew and disturb your filming?" Duan Shanshan shrugged his shoulders, saying that he couldn't help.
In his worldview, the status of the screenwriter is relatively low, and after the script is written, the director has the final say on how to shoot it. The plot may also be deleted and added by the director and the main actors at will, even without notifying the screenwriter himself.
For some domestic crews, this is indeed the case. It's just that he doesn't know the status and discourse power of Korean screenwriters, which are different from domestic screenwriters......
"No, you're a screenwriter nim, why aren't you a member of the crew? As long as you want, you can go to the crew at any time, and even if you feel that the shooting didn't achieve your expectations, you can ask the director for improvement suggestions and reshoots!"
Hyomin was surprised to deny Duan Shanshan's statement. She had only filmed TV dramas before, and the status and voice of Korean dramas were even higher than those of Korean film screenwriters, and she subconsciously refuted Duan Shanshan's "ridiculous" reasons.
"Oh, really?" Duan Shanshan replied incredulously, "but I really don't have time to go to the crewβI usually have to go to work." β
Hyo-min rolled her eyes, and her intuition told her that if Liu Kewei and the screenwriter could appear on the shooting site, it should be very beneficial to her next filming work - at least in the minds of Yamashita Producer and Director Gao, they will pay more attention to her existence.
"By the way, the rest of our group will be visiting the crew next week, isn't the screenwriter Nim a fan of Crystal Oni and Zhang Yuxi? I can introduce you to Crystal Oni! Well, I can also provide a full set of Tara signed photos to the tea house in Covesi......"
Quietly, Hyomin throws a very attractive bait.
The chapter name is the twenty-third chapter of "Romance of the Gods".
In order to confirm some of the details, I watched "Parasite" again, and delayed for a while.
