Chapter 38: Brainstorming

"Under such a setting, the more scummy and annoying the male protagonist is in the early stage, the greater the difference between him and when he comes out of the time loop."

Yili's voice was a little loud, even if everyone in the conference room looked at her, she ignored it and continued to say loudly: "In order to make the drama more intense, of course, the more scum the better, the better it is to be vulgar, arrogant, ignorant, and vain. ”

Luo Bing also opened his brain and added: "I saw that the girl in the story gave the male protagonist a slap, and we may be able to create an intensive slap feast in the script." ”

Liu Mingren: "In the early stage, some male protagonists were also set up to take the initiative to die and challenge the bottom line of social morality, so as to improve the evil in the male protagonist's image. ”

Shao Qing also mentioned: "The background of Huadu City as a script is too big, in fact, it is completely possible to consider moving to a slightly smaller town, and the structure of the characters will not be so complicated." ”

Miao Miao smiled and said: "He wants to change step by step from being disgusted by everyone, and through his cultivation in the time loop, he will become like him by everyone around him, such a story is very interesting to think about." ”

Even Zhou Peipei raised his hand and said: "The actor should have the ability not to become old in the time loop." ”

Weng Huaijing didn't speak slowly until Zhou Peipei spoke:

"The setting of the heroine should not be a stranger who has no impression of the male protagonist, it can be set to be similar to the relationship between colleagues in the workplace, not in deep contact, and I have heard a lot of bad comments about the male protagonist from other people, she will understand his various vices, and have a lot of disgust."

Yan Qing nodded in agreement:

"It's obviously more difficult to draw from a piece of waste paper covered with ink marks than it is to start writing on a blank piece of paper."

Shao Qing interjected with a smile:

"Then it's best to design some male protagonists in the early stage through PUA means, and easily soak some girls' plots in the time loop."

A new round of brainstorming began in the conference room:

After a whispered discussion with the copywriter, Eli made a new suggestion:

"Can we set up the plot like this, the male protagonist didn't have a heart for the female protagonist at all at first, but as time went by, the male protagonist found that the female protagonist was the only one he couldn't get."

One copywriter added:

"For the heroine, he was just unwilling to miss his hand at first, but with repeated attempts and repeated failures, he gradually got to know the heroine deeply, and gradually sprouted love, and at the same time inspired the good side of his human nature."

Yili took a sip of water and snatched back the words:

"He began to work hard to get rid of those bad habits, and through endless time to learn, the whole person gradually became better, and he also learned to respect love, and no longer tried to use the advantage of the time loop to pursue girls."

Eri speaks faster and faster:

"After passing all aspects of learning, this man is like a new life from the inside out, and the girl takes the initiative to fall in love with him after eliminating her original prejudice against the male protagonist."

After Yi Li finished speaking, she was a little excited and out of strength, and several girls from the planning team behind her hurriedly took hands.

Weng Huaijing affirmed: "This is more dramatic." ”

Yan Qing nodded, he raised the stack of manuscript paper in Liu Mingren's hand separately, motioned for Liu Mingren to take it, and said:

"Director Liu, please find a colleague to help you copy and distribute a copy, what everyone said just now is very correct, and even a large part of the content is consistent with the setting in the framework of the script I laid out on the manuscript paper, you are all amazing."

Except for Qingli's Weng Huaijing who responded with gaze, the rest of the people responded to Yan Qing with applause.

Yi Li was almost soothed: "Teacher Yan Qing, the brain hole of this time loop is amazing, I think this script will be very exciting, I can't wait to see this movie now." ”

Yan Qing said with a smile: "I am also very satisfied with this setting, after seeing this story, I opened such a brain hole, no matter what I did in the past two days, I couldn't stop pondering this story in my head, and finally in addition to setting the framework of the script, I also wrote a simple character biography for the male and female protagonists."

Derived from the characters' biographies, combined with the framework of the script, the good morning announcement in the hero's room, the changes in the snow outside the window, these time loop references, and the group portrait background of small town residents, plan the career of the hero and heroine and the motivation to come to the town and stay for two nights. ”

At this time, Mo Ran, the leader of the photography group, had already returned with several copies of the manuscript paper and distributed them to everyone.

Yan Qing continued: "You can take a look at the manuscript paper in your hand now, I designed the actor to be the host of a folk news program on the urban life channel of a provincial capital city TV station, and occasionally go out for interviews.

The female protagonist is the program producer of this column who has just been transferred to the male protagonist from other columns in the station.

The two, along with a driver and photographer, came to the town for an annual folk culture festival. Originally scheduled to return to the provincial capital after completing the interview the next day, a heavy snowstorm hit the next day, which temporarily closed all roads from the town to the outside world.

As a result, the three of them and one of their reporters were forced to return to the town for another night. And our time loop is an infinite loop at 6:00 on the bedside electronic clock logo after the hero of "The Third Day" is woken up by the good morning broadcast in the hotel room. ”

"The third day was just the third day he thought he had, and in fact the second day was restarting indefinitely."

Weng Huaijing looked down at the familiar pen handwriting on the manuscript paper, and gently added a sentence.

Yan Qing heard this whisper at the tip of his ear, and he explained to everyone:

So I put quotation marks around the words on the third day on the manuscript paper, and based on these settings, I determined the time when the story took place: China, the north, and the heavy snow.

As for the location, I checked some more distinctive folk customs, and finally saw the Northern Song Dynasty writer Meng Yuanlao wrote in "Tokyo Menghualu":

"The day before the beginning of spring, Kaifeng Mansion entered the spring cow into the forbidden whip spring. Kaifeng, Xiangfu two counties, put the spring cow in front of the house, the solstice is very early, the government bureaucrats play spring, such as Fangzhou Yi. ”

The time of Lichun is very consistent with the time of the northern snow season, and then checked, and found out that this custom has been passed down to this day, every year Zhuxian Town in Kaifeng Xiangfu District will hold a folk culture festival with the theme of beating spring cattle in Lichun these days, so I set the work unit of the hero and heroine to Zhengcheng TV Commercial City Channel, which is 90 kilometers away from Zhuxian Town. ”

Miao Miao read out a note by Yan Qing on the custom of beating spring cattle in the manuscript paper:

"Spring cattle, with mulberry wood as a skeleton, after the winter solstice festival to take the soil to mold. He is 4 feet tall and 8 feet long, and he draws a pattern of 360 days and 12 hours in four seasons and eight festivals. The day before the beginning of spring, people go to the ancestral hall to worship, and then whip with a colored whip to drive the "spring cow" back to the agricultural hall, and set up wine and fruit offerings in the lobby. Men, women and children lead "oxen" to help "plows", sing Yangyang songs, and pray for a good year. ”

Luo Bing looked at the content on the manuscript paper and said with a smile:

"Ruixue Zhaofeng year, it really snowed heavily, so it is reasonable for the protagonist's motivation for action and the spread of the plot."

Yan Qing: "Yes, the past two days have been too rushed, and I didn't have time to do the whole script, let alone polish the script, I can only say that I can minimize the plot loopholes, fortunately, I can get here to brainstorm with everyone to complete the details." ”

Yan Qing himself gave an example:

"We can set it up as the hero and heroine Although they are colleagues, the heroine is a newcomer who has just arrived in this column, and this is her first time going out for an interview, and she is full of anticipation and freshness for this business trip.

But the male protagonist is tired of coming here every year to do location interviews, and the male protagonist is very picky, thinks he is a star, and is weird and difficult, so the heroine has booked a hotel with better conditions for him.

Weng Huaijing said: "It's intended to make a certain distance between the male and female protagonists through such a setting, right?" ”

Yan Qing affirmed Weng Huaijing's judgment with his eyes, and continued to give examples:

"Like the first time loop in the middle of the night before going to bed, the male protagonist can break a pencil in the room, deliberately destroy the radio in the room, and when the time loop strikes again, everything is restored."

Miao Miao will come up with an idea: "The radio alarm clock that wakes up the male protagonist can play a piece of music first, and then the normal daily radio content, and the song played on this day in the time loop can always be the theme song of our program~ "Talent Co., Ltd." ”

Luo Bing's eyes lit up: "Miao Miao's linkage is very ingenious, and I also thought of an idea."

At the beginning, the male protagonist was a little incredulous when he entered the time loop, and the passers-by he met were the same as yesterday, and they were familiar with each scene as if they had experienced it.

So after he saw the heroine, he asked her to give herself a slap.,Let's assume that the night before the male protagonist told some meat jokes and molested the female owner.,The female owner has a bad impression of him.,The female owner gave the male owner a slap without thinking about it.。 ”

Shao Qing smiled and said, "Luo Bing, I think you are involved in the slap matter, and you can't get over it."

Also,I think for some of the character flaws of the male owner.,Like hypocrisy and hypocrisy.,You can set up an elderly and sick beggar on the way from the hotel to meet the female owner.,The male owner is dressed like a dog.,But when you pass by the beggar, you will only pretend to take out the change on your body.,And then walk briskly.。

Through such a setting, some references for the transformation of the male protagonist's personality are established. ”

Yi Li followed some of the previous settings, and blurted out a bigger brain hole:

The actor even calmly took advantage of his delicate control of time to swagger away a box of cash from the bank cash truck protected by live ammunition...

So he can spend this easily obtained cash as we said before, use various PUA methods to change different girls every day, and live a life of poverty and luxury in the time loop. ”
