Chapter 37: The Time Loop

On Wednesday, the warm-up video of Weng Huaijing and Yan Qing's "Talent Co., Ltd." spread popular on major video platforms, and all kinds of gods and goddesses played all kinds of "speaking for themselves" stalks.

The preparatory meeting for the reading of the second episode of the program group of "Talent Co., Ltd." is being carried out as scheduled in the script role reading conference room on the second floor of the "office building".

Mo Ran, the leader of the program's photography team, deployed four cameras to record footage from different camera perspectives.

Luo Bing, who had already learned that the warm-up publicity far exceeded the expected effect of the project team, could not hide his joy at this time, and from time to time shared the specific data of the communication heat obtained in real time from the parent company of Xiaoyu through the Weiyan group in his mobile phone.

"Let's endorse the popularity of the meme, tsk, properly book the most popular Internet hot words of the year in advance."

Luo Bing and Shao Qing exchanged in a low voice.

"No, this morning, even LVMH, the parent company of "Lu", contacted me in Paris, preparing to release a limited edition of Weng Huaijing's "Perfection" speedy25 handbag, which is expected to be warmed up on Twitter and whispers in the next few days."

Shao Qing replied with a smile.

Luo Bing covered his mouth and controlled his volume: "Twitter, whispering, are you sure?" ”

Shao Qing nodded: "Sure, their brand director sent an email, and our video was carried to YouTube by fans, and it was also very popular." ”

…………

Before Yan Qing read the manuscript of "scumbag whitewashing" that he selected, the planning team represented by Yili and Weng Huaijing each shared a manuscript at the manuscript reading meeting.

Yili chose a slightly more stable, love story that happened in the workplace office at the end of the last century, although the process is plain, but the feelings of the hero and heroine in the story are forbearance, simple and flawless, quite beautiful.

Yan Qing's evaluation is that this story has the potential to be adapted into a romance film script with a specific market value and a certain sense of age, but the audience is too narrow.

Yan Qing summed it up like this:

"If it is filmed, I suggest that the best way to operate is to participate in the film festival and win the awards, and then go to a small-scale screening, and then go to a small-scale screening, and then release it after the word-of-mouth operation expands the scope of the audience."

Weng Huaijing also commented on the synopsis of the story, and she followed Yan Qingti's idea of winning the award.

She explained concisely that although the experts of the major film festival award committees have always liked this nostalgic and restrained feeling, the story is so peaceful that there is not even room for the actors to perform.

If no major changes are made, she is not optimistic about the market potential of this story adaptation.

In the end, Iri also nodded and admitted that she chose such a theme based on the starting point of seeking stability.

…………

Weng Huaijing shared the story of the beginning of a childhood sweetheart and a young man who had no guesses.

After graduating from college, the hero and heroine chose to break up for various reasons, and worked hard for several years in the city where they chose to work, during which they also experienced several unsuccessful relationships.

The two reunited at the 10th anniversary party of college graduation and sprouted the flame of love again, but because of the passage of time, although the two of them made a lot of efforts to try to change for each other, but in the end the two did not come to the end.

Weng Huaijing looked at the camera and made a concluding statement coldly:

"Two people who obviously love each other, because of the change of time and space, with more and more experiences, finally wiped out all the love between the two, it can only be said that love is an art of mutual compromise, and it is also an art that requires superb communication skills."

Yili gave her own evaluation like this:

"This story is literary enough, and there is plenty of space for performances, but the whole story can hardly be called commercial, and the current movie-watching market does not welcome such works."

Liu Mingren interjected:

"Yes, and if it is forcibly changed to a happy ending, if the characters and plot changes lack reasonable motives, it is difficult to convince the results of hastily modified results, but they fall behind, it is better not to change."

Seeing Weng Huaijing nodding in recognition of Yili and Liu Mingren's views, Yan Qing also commented on Weng Huaijing's story:

"I actually like this story very much, because the time of this story is very close to the age level of the main audience in the current movie-watching market."

Seeing that Weng Huaijing didn't care about himself at all, Yan Qing continued:

"Even if you don't revise the ending, if the script is well polished, in the end, even if the tragic ending doesn't have that much impact on the commerciality."

"Oh?"

Liu Mingren and Yi Li both looked at Yan Qing expectantly, thinking that he planned to support the selection of this book.

But Yan Qing turned his head:

"But there are still a little problems with the story, the lines of the heroes and heroines in the original manuscript are a little young, with a serious youth idol drama style, and this part needs to be made some big moves."

Yan Qing confessed a story shared by Weng Huaijing, when the hero and heroine broke up for the second time, the male protagonist tried to keep the words:

"Caijie, I've tried everything, I can't do it, I found that I can't do it, I really can't do what you ask."

Yan Qing raised his hands and slowly stepped back, and said with some nervousness:

"Maybe I've become too much over the years, so strange that I can't even recognize myself, ha, but do you think you haven't changed a little?"

Yan Qing showed the excellent line skills of a drama actor, he mobilized the muscles on his face, and performed a man who blamed himself from hideous pain, and after a sigh, turned to a man who smiled evilly.

Weng Huaijing saw this scene, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, and her eyes fluttered, but soon she lowered her head and hid her eyes with her hanging bangs.

After a while, Weng Huaijing raised her head and looked at Yan Qing again, and her pupils returned to the appearance of a bottomless pool, but she raised her eyebrows a little sharply, and asked coldly:

"And what about the story you chose?"

Liu Mingren, Yi Li, Luo Bing and others were still cheering for Yan Qing's performance.

Only Miao Miao and Shao Qing, who were sitting on the sofa outside the conference room, noticed this scene, and Shao Qing gently reached out and put on Miao Miao's small fist that she had secretly raised.

Yan Qing took out a stack of manuscript paper and began to read the manuscript of the "scumbag whitewashing" he chose.

…………

After he finished sharing, sure enough, it was the same reaction as Miao Miao after hearing this story, almost everyone spoke out against it.

"The story frame is too thin to support a complete film script." This is opposition from Iri.

"No one wants to go to the cinema to see the dying muttering of a terminally ill scumbag!" This is Luo Bing's sharp comment.

"If you focus on two failed marriages that he didn't go into detail, I think there seems to be some value in this story that deserves to be explored." This is Shao Qing and the mud.

Weng Huaijing did not rush to express his opinion, but waited for everyone else to speak for a round before analyzing unhurriedly:

"Perhaps from his point of view, he reminisced about this experience every day, and the girl seemed to have become the spiritual pillar that kept him through the last period of his lonely life."

Weng Huaijing's tone was completely devoid of any subjective emotion.

"But in that girl's memory, the male protagonist is just an ordinary scumbag who met someone unladylike thirteen years ago."

Weng Huaijing lifted the bangs in front of him behind his ears before continuing:

The male protagonist made a few assumptions in the manuscript, but even if these impossible assumptions are met, and he is given another chance to do it again, he still won't succeed. Unless..."

Weng Huaijing paused, looked at Yan Qing, who was looking at him with a smile on his face, and said:

"Unless you're going to give him a lot of chances."

Yan Qing originally smiled, holding the thick stack of manuscript paper and preparing to wait for Weng Huaijing to finish his analysis, then turned to the second page and began to talk about the outline setting he made.

He couldn't help but smile, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: "I want to pretend once, is it really that difficult?" ”

Yan Qing admitted very simply: "Yes, that's what I planned." ”

"Then how to solve the disgust accumulated by the heroine after being offended again and again? It looks like an endless loop..."

Weng Huaijing didn't look at him again, and after asking and answering himself, he fell into thought with Luo Bing, Yili, Liu Mingren and others.

Yan Qing held up the manuscript paper that had flipped to the second page, and interrupted everyone's contemplation:

"At that time, Miao Miao asked me if I wanted to forcibly whitewash this scumbag, and I told her that neither the man nor the girl in this story would appear in the final script."

Everyone in the conference room remained quiet, waiting for Yan Qing to continue speaking.

"I just intercepted the experience of a male character who failed to pick up girls through PUA as inspiration and put it into an absurd setting framework."

Yili likes this kind of brain-hole setting, and can't help but ask: "How absurd is it?" ”

Yan Qing smiled mysteriously:

"In the script, the male protagonist will not have any incurable diseases, nor will he have those two failed marriage experiences, and the main framework of the script is focused on the day when the male protagonist starts to pursue the heroine, and the next day is the end of the play."

As if burned by a pool of autumn water thrown diagonally from the opposite side, Yan Qing coughed lightly and continued:

"For all the other characters in the script, they simply spent an ordinary day in this city, and the heroine also suffered an ordinary confession as in her past life experience."

Yan Qing put down the manuscript paper, spread out his palms, and finished his setting in one go:

But for the male protagonist in the script, he is the only one who is trapped in this day, and whenever time passes a certain point in time, it will automatically restart, go back to 24 hours ago, and keep restarting the cycle, even if he commits suicide, he can't get rid of this cycle process.

It wasn't until one day that he moved the heroine on this day with his sincerity and gained sincere love, which ended this endless time loop. ”

"Shhhhh

"It's so new..."

"Sister Bing, let's call this a brain-opening."

Yan Qing noticed that the atmosphere in the conference room was hotly discussed, except for Weng Huaijing, she lowered her head and seemed to be thinking about something.

"Little, did it shock you?"

Yan Qing smiled reservedly.
