"Can you tell us more about the musical?" Kenny Ortega pulled a notebook out of his jacket pocket and took the trouble to get the pen ready. With the shock of the song "www.xstxt.orgeandyou", Kenny Ortega did not despise the other party just because it was a 15-year-old boy standing in front of him.

In my own circle, there is absolutely no equivalence between age and talent. A teenager who can write his own lyrics and songs, if Kenny Ortega still thinks that he is just an ordinary child, then this only shows that he is stupid.

Most minors want their ideas to be taken seriously in formal conversations with adults, especially precocious children, who tend to be more pronounced in this regard. Kenny Ortega did this precisely to fully reflect the importance he attaches to Lin Mingyang.

In response, Lin Mingyang no longer had reservations, and his brain began to work at a rapid pace, recalling everything about that musical and dance drama. "The male protagonist of the story, Troy, is a very talented teenager in basketball, who has been aiming for basketball since he was a child, and his father and coach has been helping him train."

This kind of character setting is not new to the well-informed Kenny Ortega, but just now he used a $10 tip to get a lot of information about Lin Mingyang from Red, and he remembered that the teenager in front of him, who was about to talk and did not see any nervousness in his expression, happened to be the absolute main force of the school basketball team.

Out of curiosity, Kenny Ortega couldn't help but interrupt, "The prototype of the male protagonist is yourself, right?" ”

Lin Mingyang was completely stunned, in fact, he didn't have that idea at all, because the screenwriter of the original book couldn't know himself four years later, which can only be said to be a coincidence, to Lin Mingyang's surprise, just because of basketball, Kenny Ortega can associate him with the protagonist of the story?

Kenny Ortega had a different understanding of Lin Mingyang's expression, and he believed that Lin Mingyang's surprise came from his guessing of his thoughts. "Your friend is very helpful, I learned a few things about you from him, and he just mentioned your excellent performance on the basketball team!"

Lin Mingyang didn't expect that for only $10, Red would "sell" himself, but Kenny Ortega's "misunderstanding" saved Lin Mingyang a lot of trouble, and he admitted it wrongly.

"In fact, my father's knowledge of basketball was limited to the most superficial level, and he preferred to watch baseball games than the NBA!"

Kenny Ortega nodded, indicating that he understood.

"The heroine of the story, Gaberella, is a kind-hearted but outstanding science wizard."

"Is this a reference to one of your classmates?" Kenny Ortega's curiosity caused him to interrupt Lin Mingyang again.

Fortunately, this guy Rhett just told Kenny Ortega that he played basketball well, if he knew that Lin Mingyang also had enviable results, it is estimated that the prototype of the heroine would also be attributed to Lin Mingyang. The imagination of this director, Lin Mingyang is really a little "dare not compliment".

"It's a shame that I don't have a classmate like Gabriela around, and I think a girl who doesn't wear thick lenses but has top grades would be a very interesting character!"

"This is the type of girl you want?" Kenny Ortega was very gossipy, and seeing Lin Mingyang's face a little embarrassed, he knew that he was a little too curious. He lifted his tie and tried to restore his serious image in Lin Mingyang's heart, but the effect was not ideal.

"They were originally people from two different worlds, and at a party during the New Year's holiday, they collaborated to bring out a moving duet to the fullest. After the holidays, Gabriella's mom changed jobs, and Troy found out that he and Gabriela were in the same school. ”

"A chance encounter at first sight!" After listening to the beginning of the story, Kenny Ortega scribbled this sentence in his notebook.

The auditions for roles in the school's musical are also about to begin, with both Troy and Gabriela planning to audition, hoping to be the lead actor and heroine of the school's latest musical. But at the same time, Troy and Gabriela are the core members of the school's basketball team and academic club respectively, and basketball games and academic competitions are gradually approaching, which is related to the honor of the school. ”

In order to keep Troy engaged in the game of basketball and Gabriela to prepare for the academic all-around competition, members of the basketball team and the academic club joined forces to dissuade them from auditioning for the musical. Xia Pei and Wren, who have always been the protagonists of the school's musicals, are also worried that their status in the school will be shaken, and then they do everything possible to prevent them from participating in the role audition. ”

"Contradictions are starting to come to the fore." This is the second sentence that Kenny Ortega left in his notebook.

Troy and Gabriela didn't give up and pursued their dreams more aggressively, and their actions influenced the rest of the class, and they began to show others some of their hidden talents! Later, the teammates realized that it was cruel to kill their friends' dreams, so they gave them encouragement and help again. ”

"Xia Pei and Wren maliciously changed the time of the musical tryouts so that the basketball game, the academic all-around competition, and the musical theater tryouts were held at the same time. Unexpectedly, teammates promised them that they would be allowed to play, and devised a strategy to cause the basketball game's scorer to malfunction, and the chemicals in the academic game to produce poison gassing to suspend both games. When Troy and Gabriela arrived at the theater, the auditions for the musical were over, and at the behest of the two and the pianist, they were finally allowed to participate, with all their teammates on the scene to cheer them on. ”

"Out of despair is born hope." The tip of the pen slid quickly, and Kenny Ortega drew a circle on the sentence, and he began to find the story a little interesting.

"Troy and Gabriela sang at an amazing level and eventually won the championship. In basketball games and academic competitions, they won again because of their courage. Xia Pei and Wren recognize their mistakes and sincerely congratulate them, and they end up being good friends! The context of the story gradually became clear in Lin Mingyang's description, and finally ended in his calm tone.

Kenny Ortega has been listening carefully during this process, and from time to time he has jotted down some points in his little notebook. The story itself didn't bring Kenny Ortega too many expected surprises, it looked more like a story that an ordinary high school student could imagine, so he no longer had any doubts about the original surname of the story.

However, the idea of the whole story is to make him feel bright, as a basketball genius boy Troy did not reject the hope of everyone, nor did he give up the dream of pursuit, with the support of friends and the understanding of his father, from a boy who didn't talk about basketball to a warm and gregarious person. Gabriela is intellectually remarkable, and she balances her studies and interests well because she has the encouragement and trust of others. They all like to express their ideas through music.

What really attracted Kenny Ortega was the songs that Lin Mingyang mentioned. He even had no doubt that the launch of such a musical and dance drama with both humor and innovation would definitely cause quite a stir. But none of this is the biggest takeaway from Kenny Ortega's trip, the most important thing is that he has found a little guy with unlimited potential. Amateur screenwriter, a teenager with great talent in basketball, and a star on campus, this series of identities did not dazzle Kenny Ortega, on the contrary, he felt that there would be more surprises waiting for him in Lin Mingyang's body.

At the gas station, Lin Mingyang simply described his thoughts to Kenny Ortega, and of course the other party could not give him any promises because of this. Kenny Ortega wants a detailed script and complete song information, all of which must be implemented in black and white. Because he can't just lobby investors with an idea, such a director may have, but definitely not him, Kenny Ortega.

"I need a little time!" Kenny Ortega wants to read the full script, but Lin Mingyang doesn't have the script in his hand, and what he needs most now is to have enough time to sort out the information in his head and write it down.

"How about a week?" Considering that Lin Mingyang already had a clear plot design, Kenny Ortega decided to put a little pressure on him and take a week to complete the script, which was quite a challenge for non-professional screenwriters.

"I'll do my best!" Lin Mingyang gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.

"Then I'm waiting for your good news!" Kenny Ortega nodded with satisfaction, and Lin Mingyang's final performance did not disappoint him.

Watching Kenny Ortega leave contentedly, Lin Mingyang knew that he had inevitably had an unpredictable impact on the future. And whether this effect is good or bad, he himself can't say.

In the next few days, this bit of confusion in Lin Mingyang's heart was quickly replaced by a faint excitement. The opportunity that many people dream of fell on Lin Mingyang's head by accident. If the success of "Orange County Boys" gave Lin Mingyang a direction, then the appearance of Kenny Ortega will be his first key to knock on the golden door of Hollywood.

Soon the past week became the most fulfilling day of Lin Mingyang's vacation, he almost spent three days to complete the writing of the entire script, and then spent nearly a day to revise and polish. The rest of the time, he sorted out all the ten songs that appeared in the film in his memory, and finally he selected six songs that were most closely connected to the plot, and the other four songs were all abandoned.

Versatility is a good thing, but Lin Mingyang doesn't want to give people a sense of omnipotence. Although he has a unique advantage, he hopes that the use of this advantage can be controlled as much as possible within the acceptable range of others, and he does not want others to treat him as a "monster".
