Chapter 110: Test [1/3]
As a traditional Chinese mythological story, the legend of Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen naturally does not know how many times it has been remade by predecessors.
Like Zhao Yaju's "The Legend of the New White Lady" and Xu Ke's "Green Snake", they are among the best.
It's just that whether it is "The Legend of the New White Lady" or "Green Snake", it is inevitably a little pale in portraying the love between Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian.
For example, in "The Legend of the New White Lady", Bai Suzhen chose to marry Xu Xian in order to repay her kindness.
It seems that in the eyes of the screenwriter and director, this is love.
As for Xu Ke in "Green Snake", he is even more lazy to explain.
Even though Xu Xian is a scholarly scholar with a weak heart, but under the director's setting, the thousand-year-old snake demon Bai Suzhen just likes him.
So in these two versions, the combination of Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian, one is because of kindness, and the other is because of desire.
The only thing that doesn't have is love!
Therefore, when CCTV adapted "The Legend of the White Snake" this time, Li Gongda put the script issue first.
Because this touches on the fundamental question of how to adapt!
Before the project was established, Li Gongda decided to openly solicit scripts from the public, rather than just relying on a few screenwriters in CCTV to work behind closed doors.
Although this move has caused a lot of criticism on CCTV, I have to say that this trick is really effective.
After all, when the pattern is bigger, the horizon will naturally be broadened.
And finally after some screening, the submissions of two female college students at USTC were favored by Li Gongda.
That's why Goofy now sees this version of the script.
It's a pity that the two little girls are only interested in the mythical story of the White Snake and have no idea of changing their careers to become editors.
Even because they were worried about affecting their studies, the two also took a stage name as a signature and left it on the script.
So when Gao Fei joined the group, he didn't see the screenwriter.
……
And in the scripts of these two female students, in order to make the traditional mythological stories more in line with the logic of modern people, they made bold adaptations.
In their story, Bai Suzhen is still the snake demon who has cultivated for thousands of years and is bent on becoming an immortal.
It's just that the green snake, which is inferior by nature, calls for wind and rain and causes floods.
This alarmed Bai Suzhen, who had been cultivating, to come out and clean up the mess.
After some fighting, Bai Suzhen tied Xiaoqing and calmed him at the bottom of the lake.
And because of the disaster relief, Bai Suzhen received the elixir given by Master Guanyin, and was guided to go to the sword mound to ask for two "sisterly concentric" fairy swords.
Because Master Guanyin told Bai Suzhen when he fulfilled his promise to release Xiaoqing, he came to "more than half a step" to turn her into an immortal.
This is Bai Suzhen's "more than half a step" line three hundred years later.
It is said that when Gao Fei saw such a script, he was actually quite surprised.
After all, Bai Suzhen in the script looks a little too normal, which makes Gao Fei, who has watched too many of the heroine's stupid Bai Tian TV series, feel a little uncomfortable for a while.
And three hundred years later, Xu Xian, a scholar who went to Baozhitang for apprenticeship, was taken to "more than half a step" because he owed eight taels of silver to the bearded swordsman.
So in this drama, Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian's first encounter was not because of any repayment.
The truth of the matter is that one of them is to continue his career, and the other is completely because of being collected for debts!
It was only when they were trapped in the middle of the Three Realms of "Half a Step" that Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen got closer and closer because of the various operations of the matchmaker Fahai.
So Xu Xianzai knew that Bai Suzhen was a monster, but he still moved uncontrollably.
And don't look at Xu Xian's powerlessness, but that mouth is extremely powerful.
Even though Bai Suzhen has a thousand years of cultivation, she still can't bear Xu Xian's various earthy love words.
……
On October 1, at 8 p.m., Hengdian Qingming Shanghe Scenic Area.
Under the hazy night, the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" arranged the lights and cameras in an orderly manner.
"Scene 34, two shots, one shot"
“a!”
After the scene notes quickly left, the bluestone bridgehead.
I saw red lips and white teeth, a green shirt, and a thin body.
Looking at Liu Tao in front of him, his eyes flickered for a moment, and then he suddenly became firm.
Immediately, I saw him look at Liu Tao, who was fluttering in white clothes in front of him, like a fairy, with sincere eyes, and said softly:
"White girl, if I tell you I'm sick, will you believe me?
Just because I met a person on the broken bridge a few days ago, I have had an extra heart problem since then.
I don't know who I got this disease for, but when I saw you today, I suddenly understood a lot in my heart. ”
Seeing him say this, Liu Tao, who was dressed in white gauze and plain clothes, didn't seem to understand, and immediately replied a little cutely:
“(⊙o⊙)… Got a lot? Now that you know it's a disease, should you take a few more medicines? ”
Seeing this situation, Gao Fei's eyes became more and more determined to look at the woman in front of him, and he said boldly:
"I'm afraid this disease is because of the girl."
"How is that possible?"
Hearing this, Liu Tao immediately laughed and said:
"We've only met two or three times, so why are you sick because of me?"
And that's no wonder she's indeed.
After all, she's just a thousand-year-old snake demon.
With her long life, she really can't understand the love at first sight of human beings!
It's just that Gao Fei still didn't give up, only to see him look at Liu Tao emotionally and say:
"Two or three times is really not much, maybe you don't feel anything, girl.
But life is only seventy, except for ten years of ignorance, ten years of old and weak, there are only fifty years left.
And these fifty years will take away half of the night, and there will be only twenty-five years.
Think about it carefully, eat and drink tea, bathe and change clothes, run around, get sick at work, and spend a lot of time.
The time that can really stay with your beloved is very rare.
I don't want the girl to think I'm a prodigal son with a lot of words, I just want to tell the girl.
If I only have two or three chances to meet the girl in my life, I have wasted the first two times, and I can't let go of this one. ”
Looking at Gao Fei's increasingly hot eyes, Liu Tao didn't know why he avoided those eyes in fear, and then said in a panic:
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Seeing this, Gao Fei plucked up his courage and immediately said slowly:
"I will say that since the first time I saw the girl...... Just like you. ”
Hearing this, White Snake was flustered for some reason, but at the same time, he was a little happy.
So he immediately asked with some curiosity:
"Like? Like I like my sister the way I like it? ”
Seeing her say this, Gao Fei hurriedly shook his head and explained:
"No, no, that's different, Xiaoqing is your relative, and feeling sorry for her is like feeling sorry for your own siblings.
And I like the girl, just like cherishing my own life, the girl is not there for a day...... I'm better off dead. ”
I have to say that the reader's mouth is neat, and this sweet talk is a set.
And as Goofy's confession became more and more naked, his eyes became hotter and hotter.
It's just that although Liu Tao is faintly happy in her heart, she still doesn't know what happened to her.
So he was still a little shy, and a little ignorant, shook his head and said:
“…… I don't understand. ”
No way, in her more than 1,000 years of life, the word love has never existed.
To put it simply, she is a thousand-year-old daughter!
Seeing this, Gao Fei naturally wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue.
After all, the saints have said that they want to go all out.
Then I saw him boldly speak:
"White girl, would you like to ......?"
It's a pity that before he finished speaking, Liu Tao, who met in front of him, suddenly "fainted" gorgeously.
Frightened, Gao Fei hurriedly hugged her and shouted:
"White girl, what's wrong with you? White Girl? ”
……
In front of the monitor, when they saw this scene, Li Gongda and director Wu Jiayi couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
"Yes! Very good! ”
"Quick, get ready for the next scene!"
Hearing this, Gao Fei in front of the camera finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In other words, filming this drama is indeed a big challenge for him.
It's all literary dramas, and there are a lot of lines.
So just memorizing the lines is enough for Gao Fei to drink a pot, not to mention memorizing the lines and grasping the feelings of the characters at the same time.
It's just that when he just wanted to help Liu Tao, who was sitting on the ground, up, Liu Tao uncharacteristically dodged backwards, and then stood up by himself.
