Chapter 388: Bosom Friend
"Are you...... Who is it? ”
"My name is Xingxing, and I am the screenwriter of this drama." The handsome man pushed his glasses, and his voice was extremely soft.
"You're looking for me?" Xu Zhinian was even more puzzled.
"You...... Are you really Ning Mo's girlfriend? This voice was quieter than just now, which made Xu Zhinian feel that he might have been engaged in underground work in his previous life.
"I'm not Ning Mo's girlfriend, I'm just friends with him."
"Friends? Ning Mo never brings a female companion into the crew, he is very dedicated and professional. ”
"What the hell do you want to say, this screenwriter?"
"I know...... Ning Mo will definitely listen to you, so can you please do me a favor and persuade Mr. Ning to accept this extra scene, this scene is really important to the whole script. ”
After Xing Xing finished speaking, he actually bowed to Xu Zhinian at a 90-degree standard.
"I'm just friends with him, how can I decide if he wants to add this scene? Mr. Ning is very talkative, you can take the initiative to consult with him. ”
Mr. Ning...... Easy to talk to? Are you sure? Xing Xing's expression looked like he had eaten Coptis chinensis, and it was conceivable that he must have been abused by Ning Mo many times before.
Xing Xing patted the thick script in his arms and said: "The script of this play has been changed eight times, and every time it is revised, Mr. Ning is not satisfied. I wrote and deleted, deleted and wrote, and I wondered if I was not suitable for being a screenwriter...... Mr. Ning's dedication to excellence in his work is understandable. But I also hope that he will accept my suggestion...... This scene is really crucial, and I don't want to leave regrets. ”
Xu Zhinian looked at the thick stack of scripts, and felt a little unbearable.
She knows that for a brain creator, the most painful thing is to be denied his idea, and if he continues to be tortured like this, even the most inspired person will be beaten into a piece of dead wood.
"Did you write the scene you wanted to add? I want to see it. ”
Xu Zhinian's request surprised Xing Xing - ordinary outsiders will not be interested in the script.
He hurriedly flipped to the scene and handed it to Xu Zhinian.
Xu Zhinian read it line by line and nodded slightly.
"You want to portray the inner anguish of the last emperor when he is trapped inside and outside, and is about to become a puppet. He punished the eunuch he usually trusted and relied on the most, not so much to punish the eunuch as to punish himself, and his inner struggle, pain, self-denial and powerlessness all exploded in this scene. Personally, I think ...... This scene is still very necessary. ”
After Xu Zhinian finished speaking, he returned the script to Xing Xing, and when he looked up at him, he saw the excitement in his eyes, just like Maxima met Bole and Boya met Ziji.
"Y-You've studied screenwriting? Or rather, what research have you done on movies, do you ...... How can you read such a complex meaning? ”
"Is it complicated?" Xu Zhinian shrugged her shoulders, she really didn't want to show any literary literacy, she just analyzed it casually.
Could this be the legendary mediocre little genius?
"Actually...... I showed this scene to many people, but they all felt that it didn't matter, the director didn't completely reject me, but Mr. Ning said no, he would definitely cut it, I really didn't expect that the person who could understand me best turned out to be a strange layman. ”
Xing Xing's expression was a little lost, Xu Zhinian looked at him, and couldn't help but think of himself when he was young in his previous life - the saddest thing for a person is not to be looked down upon, but not to be seen.
"Don't be sad, I'll try." Xu Zhinian patted Xing Xing's shoulder, wanting to comfort her a few words, but heard Ning Mo's coughing sound from behind.
Then, she felt her shoulders sink and then fall into the dragon robe.
was hugged by Ning Mo, who was wearing a costume, and she had a very trance feeling, as if she had entered the palace and been sealed as a nobleman.
"You know?" Ning Mo's expression was very unkind, as if Xing Xing owed him money.
"I don't know." Xu Zhinian and Xing Xing spoke in unison.
In order to prevent Ning Mo's vinegar jar from being overturned on the spot, Xu Zhinian had no choice but to further explain: "Xing Xing, as a screenwriter, just wants to insist on his opinion, and wants me to persuade you to see if you can add that scene." I read the script, and I think it's still very helpful for character building, but ...... I'm a layman, you have to decide whether to add it in the end, or you give Xing Xing a chance to read the script he wrote. ”
Xu Zhinian glanced back at Xing Xing, his expression looking nervous.
Ning Mo's gaze switched back and forth on the faces of the two of them twice, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Niannian, do you want me to add it?" ”
This sentence sounds a little wrong, she just came to see the fun, can she still decide whether to add drama or not?
"My opinion doesn't matter......"
Ning Mo put his arm around Xu Zhinian's shoulders and said, "No, your opinion is very important, whether it is at work or in life, others can't influence me, but you can." ”
Xu Zhinian looked at Xing Xing awkwardly, he was looking at her with that begging gaze.
"Good. Even if I wanted to, this scene is a sublimation of the inner world of the characters, I think it is necessary, and besides, I would love to see you perform. ”
Ning Mo nodded: "Okay, if you want to see it." ”
He stretched out his hand and rubbed Xu Zhinian's hair, his eyes were full of pampering, and then glanced at Xing Xing: "Why are you still stunned, take it, and come with me to find the director to dismantle the scene." ”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and went to find An Kangren.
Xing Xing hurriedly followed, while Xu Zhinian continued to shrink in the chair and doze.
About half an hour later, the filming of this scene started, and Xing Xing walked back with an excited expression.
"Thank you, thank you so much." Xing Xing bowed 90 degrees to Xu Zhinian again.
"What's there to thank for this, it's just a sentence, besides, you are also doing your job conscientiously, I also hope that Ning Mo can perfectly interpret the role, and I hope that he will have no regrets in this last role and realize his ideals."
"The last character? What do you mean...... Mr. Ning won't be in movies in the future, so why is he going? ”
Since this topic was discussed, Xu Zhinian said his plan to open a film and television company in 1510.
Hearing that Ning Mo was going to give up his celebrity status for Xu Zhinian and go behind the scenes, Xing Xing let out an incredible sigh: "I really didn't find the wrong person, you are really important to Mr. Ning..."
"Don't get me wrong, we are actually a deep cooperative relationship, our company will definitely invest in movies when it is established, and we will also need a good screenwriter like you who is serious about work and strives for perfection, I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."
Xu Zhinian was not casual and polite, but through observation, he learned that Xing Xing is a rare literary and artistic talent.
In an era when most people are working as a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day, he has requirements for himself, for his work content, and for his future, which is commendable.
