Chapter 52: The Magical Effect of the Script
in the coffee shop.
Penny sipped her coffee softly, wondering if the Sheenie in front of her was a poor actor who didn't fall into the flow, or a realist master who had turned her life into an acting testing ground.
This is critical, because what she says after that has to be analyzed in conjunction with this credibility variability.
"Let's talk about the script, do you still have Carvin?" Sheeney asked curiously.
"Maybe it was too noisy over there just now, but it's much better here, well, I wrote a two-thousand-word outline." Penny clicked on the notebook she had at hand.
"It's amazing, I've written so much." Sheeney looked at the dense words on it, and complimented enviously, Writer, this is really an admirable existence.
"Can I take a look?" Sheeney asked curiously.
"Not yet. Needs to be sorted out further, um," Penny coughed and pulled the notebook back in front of her, ready to get to business as soon as possible, "We talked about it before... The background of this story, the heroine is that after the protagonist runs away from home, she is penniless, so she is going to work, and then she sees a pizza shop recruiting waiters. So she decided to settle down here and look for her own opportunities at the same time! ”
Sheeney nodded repeatedly, her eyes full of excitement, and the expression on her face read, "This is me!" I'll make the sauce! ”
Well, she shouldn't be a master of acting, Penny looked at her, made a conclusion, and then said unhurriedly: "Then, I need to make a complete setting for this store and write what this store looks like." ”
"Are you going to keep the protagonist as a waiter?" Sheeney asked curiously, this is related to her role, of course, it is not clear whether it is hers or not, but the opportunity must be seized, and it is important to have a good relationship with the screenwriter.
The male screenwriter Sheeni will feel very sure, but the female screenwriter may also be able to give it a try.
Penny shook her head: "No, the owner of this shop, a bad boss, has tortured her countless times, I mean mentally. Later, she overthrew the guy's rule, took down the store, and became the boss herself. ”
"But, where are the vampires?"
Penny flipped to the next page: "I didn't think about it, it should be a guest, a guest who craves the blood of the protagonist, he always comes here to eat, and he is very interested in the protagonist on the surface, but in fact it is for her blood." ”
Penny herself felt hot when she said this, this is a very interesting setting, Penny thinks that if she writes well, there will really be a market, maybe she can really complete it?
"Is there no love?" Sheeney asked.
"Yes, the blood of the protagonist is special, and as long as you drink her blood, you will fall in love with her, which is why the vampire has been slow to start. The audience will look forward to the deliciousness of the first bite of blood, and the irrepressible fire of love......" Penny felt that she was talking with emotion.
Sheeney nodded repeatedly, "Sounds interesting." ”
When she heard Penny talk about him, she knew that the male protagonist was a man and the female protagonist was a woman, cough, yes, sometimes the male protagonist may be a woman, and the female protagonist may be a man.
The normal sexual orientation setting is not in line with the trend! Sheeney thinks she has to be reminded: "Have you considered adding some other factors, for example, there is a female vampire who also wants the blood of the heroine and is afraid of love?" ”
Penny looked up in amazement and looked at those charming blue eyes.
Behind Sheeny, Miller was also listening intently, fortunately he didn't choose any fast food restaurants, such shops are usually a bit noisy, and now this coffee shop is fine, and this corner is quiet.
A female vampire who wants the blood of the heroine and is afraid of love?
When Miller heard this in the back, he almost boiled and stood up to join the discussion to express his opinion: "It must be added!" Why be afraid, well, this one should have! You will have a market of both genders at the same time! ”
"Hmm... This can have, I think about it, will add a little bit, sounds good opinion. Penny scribbled a few words on the paper, and Sheeney looked at it.
After Penny finished writing, she looked up: "Tell me about your shop, what is it like, I'll make some records here, you know that there can't be only a few characters in the script, a lot of supporting characters, and tricks." ”
Sheeni nodded: "Manolio has had this shop for a long time, and I have also heard from others, this person is ugly, bad-tempered, stingy, and racist,......"
Before Heenie could speak, Penny had quietly pressed the small recorder, which could not be used as evidence without her consent, but it could be used to analyze the case and save a lot of practical work.
Ostensibly, Penny was making notes in her notebook, jotting down details that she might want to ask carefully.
Race, discrimination, to whom, this should be asked.
Sheenie had a lot of things to say in her chest, as she had mentioned in the training class: "You should see what he looks like, right?" ”
Penny nodded, and indeed she saw that Manolio that Sheeney was talking about, an overweight fat man, of Italian descent with a wide nose: "The character's personality is expressed through external body movements, words, how does he usually behave?" Can you give some examples? For example, what is bad for his employees? ”
"He's not a nice guy, but he's okay with me, I think it's because he wants to do that with me. Men are always like that. Well, he's very bad for Shaun, you've seen Shaun, he's a Chinese, he's been here for a few years, and he's heard that his parents are dead. ”
"How did you die?"
"I don't know, I've heard it too, he has a sister, and the two live together. Manolio hired him because he was cheap, I know, but he often asked him to deduct money. Yesterday, for example, he asked Sean to deliver a takeaway, the ...... of Midley Street."
Sheeney lowered her voice: "It's a mess there, the base camp of the black gangsters. ”
Petunia's heart moved, this was a very important message. Shaun didn't come today, could it have something to do with this? Is it possible for a person who is very poor and in need of money to do something illegal for this?
Why did Manolio hire a Chinese, if he didn't like it, he could be expelled, and use the method of deducting money, on the surface, the relationship is very stiff, is it really stiff, or is it hiding some unknown secret?
Similarly, Why doesn't a Chinese person go to a Chinese restaurant to deliver takeaways?
What is the reason for such persistence?
Many thoughts quickly turned in Penny's mind, and at this moment, Sheeny, who was in front of her, said the place on Midley Street.
It's so famous, Penny has to respond.
"That's dangerous! How old is he? Penny feigned nervousness and echoed Sieney, which is a technique to keep people going, you can't not respond, you can't respond too much.
"Who said no, he was robbed twice by the people around there, and he was beaten a little. He's about twenty. Sheeney shook her head, a sympathetic look on her face.
Penny followed with a similar expression: "What about yesterday?" Is it an accident that I didn't come today? ”
