Chapter 48: I'm Hooked, What the Bait Is
Wang Wei wanted to know what he didn't hear clearly.
Helplessly, Shen Zhenyi asked again and again, but Shen Zhenyi refused to say anything except glaring at him a few times.
This can't help but make him think.
However, the premise is to win the actress within a year or two?
One word, difficult!
Who is the youngest actress at the Pegasus Awards?
It's still that familiar name - Liu Shuyi. The legendary actress was 23 years old when she won her first Pegasus Award.
You must know that the vast majority of actors and actresses are supporting roles made from small productions, then the protagonists of small productions or supporting roles of large productions, and finally reach the protagonists of large productions...... It's like this, step by step.
Liu Shuyi is extremely lucky, and when she meets a nobleman, she skips a few steps directly, almost one step to the sky, in order to break the Tianma Award actress age record.
Shen Zhenyi is only 19 years old this year, although she has also skipped the process of ordinary actors, but whether she can replicate or even break the record of idols, only God knows!
Still, this Pegasus Awards ceremony seems to have given her some excitement and inspiration.
After returning to the crew of "Genius Gunman", she took the initiative to pull in several behind-the-scenes creators and the old actor Cheng Guangtian, who played her father in the film, and said her new ideas.
"I think the script needs to be improved."
Wang Wei raised his eyebrows first and made a gesture of "tell your story".
Shen Zhenyi was also not polite, and said eloquently-
"When I was doing character analysis before, I kept thinking about a question: why is the heroine so young and so sure when she makes any decision? Whether it's a rebuttal in the face of his father's disappointment, or a straightforward interrogation of the principal, or a person who knows that the male protagonist is an honest and loyal person but insists on dragging him into the water? ”
She glanced at Wang Wei: "The answer given by the director is that she is a genius!" ”
Others were a little confused.
Wang Wei explained: "The difference between geniuses and mortals, in addition to the ability to solve problems, is also crucial, the tolerance of the rules of reality. ”
Others are still a little confused - so that's what your geniuses really think?
Shen Zhenyi continued: "There is some truth to this, but the digging is not deep enough. ”
"The heroine should be a conceited and proud genius, who thinks that she can solve all the problems in the world with her own ability, and she can be recognized by the world as a matter of course."
But in private schools, there is a different set of rules – the trading of power and money in the adult world, and even the threshold for entering the school is a monetary transaction. This is a great blow and insult to her self-esteem and pride. ”
"So what is she going to do? She goes behind her father's back and seeks her independence through her own abilities, and the method she uses is a common shortcut in the adult world - helping others cheat and get rewards. ”
Wang Wei nodded, these are all original in the script.
"After the first exam cheating was discovered, the father was angry and disappointed, but he still decided to sell the car to pay the tuition fee and bear the consequences of his daughter's wrongdoing."
Of course, the heroine was also shaken, because she always loved her father. Shen Zhenyi looked at the thoughtful teacher Cheng Guangtian and said, "Then it's my new idea." ”
"The heroine's father, as an absolutely correct image, silently endures everything for his daughter, but for the genius heroine, isn't this a heavy pressure given unilaterally?"
Hearing this fresh point, Wang Wei suddenly sat up straight.
"Most parents in China, or Asian countries, seem to be like this, as long as the children are good, it is worth it no matter how hard and tired they are. The problem is that this kind of dedication will forever be imprinted in the depths of the soul of the children - this life is owed to your parents, how can you fix it? ”
After disseminating the topic, Shen Zhenyi returned to the script: "For the heroine, this heavy pressure makes her want to change her father, who is honest and kind, and even a little cowardly, but she can't do anything. So the hope of change was projected onto the male protagonist, because she said that the male protagonist was like her father. ”
"The hope of change is to rise up and fight back against the injustice of fate, even if it is unscrupulous, as she said to the male protagonist The very heart-piercing truth - even if you are honest, life will still deceive you."
The more Shen Zhenyi spoke, the deeper her voice became, as if she was invested in the heroine's emotions: "However, when she looked at the male protagonist with the shadow of her father, she was indeed changed by her, but she became a member of the adult world she hated." ”
"At the same time, her father was also reflecting and growing, giving her more understanding, more equal love, and piercing her heart at once."
She realized that she always had two selves in her heart, one arrogant and arrogant, and could go astray at any time; One wants to be as upright, kind, and responsible as his father. ”
"The final ending is the so-called self-redemption in the eyes of the world, but for the heroine, she just defeated herself in her heart who didn't take the world seriously."
After Shen Zhenyi finished speaking, Wang Wei thought quietly for a while, did not comment on anything, but cleared his throat and turned to the others: "What do you think?" ”
"It's a very complete psychological growth curve, which is more solid than the turning point of the original script that supports the whole story." Assistant director Lao Xu said frankly.
"Hmm." Wang Wei also admits this.
Here's an example –
In the original version, after the heroine was caught cheating, she was sad because of her father's disappointment one moment, and the next moment she seemed to accept the invitation to cheat for the second time without much hesitation.
But if according to Shen Zhenyi's new idea, the foreshadowing has been dug deep enough, and the heroine is not only for money, but also for her faint disappointment in her father, and wants to prove that she can defeat the father-like self in her heart by taking shortcuts.
In this way, this is not only a youth movie mixed with whimsical techniques, but also more artistic exploration.
"It's just that if you change it like this, not only do some scenes need to be reshot, but the performance of the heroine and the heroine's father is more demanding." Zhou Lin analyzed.
Wang Wei then looked at the old drama teacher Cheng.
Cheng Guangtian thought about it and smiled: "With such a modification, the movie will be more interesting, I have no problem." ”
As for Shen Zhenyi, she didn't need to ask, her eyes were full of eagerness.
In the end, Wang Wei made a decision: "Then change, aren't you afraid of ambition, are you still afraid of difficulty?" ”
He said and glanced at Shen Zhenyi meaningfully.
This little girl, who just revealed her covetousness for the actress, turned her head and made it more difficult for herself, she really couldn't wait!
"So, 'Behave well and don't let me down'?" Shen Zhenyi received the eyes accurately, and the corners of her lips rose slightly.
"Yes." Wang Wei met her shining eyes, "Behave well, let the audience cheer for you, let the film critics sing praises for you, let me ......"
- Push you to the top and ...... Hurry up and fulfill your promise!
However, he wanted to ask, I've taken the bait, what is your bait?
Shen Zhenyi also heard the unfinished words, and replied with a big mockery.
Others watched in confusion at the extremely delicate exchange between the two in front of them.
Nima, what kind of adultery, do you dare to plot loudly?!!
