Chapter 199: The conflict between the script and the original book

In the past two days, the entire crew began to try out the costume to determine the makeup and prepare for the start of filming.

Zhang Jizhong and Zhou Xiaowen are staring at this matter.

Chen Shuo originally thought that after he had thoroughly understood the script, he would go to Zhou Xiaowen and others to discuss the inconsistency of Duan Yu's personality.

But after thinking about it, it's good to ask about the situation in advance, the province is similar to the original filming of "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang", and my understanding is different from that of the director and screenwriter.

"Then we'll go first." Liu Xiaoli nodded after hearing this, and took Liu Yifei and Shu Wei to the makeup group.

And Chen Shuo went back to the room to get his script and notes, and was about to go to the makeup team to find Zhou Xiaowen and others.

As soon as I entered the elevator, I saw Jiang Tong, the assistant director in charge of reading the script, and hurriedly said hello: "Director Jiang is good." ”

"Chen Shuo, hello." Jiang Tong saw him holding the script in his hand and asked, "How did you read the script?" Most of the first few episodes are your role, so you can take a look at it first.

If you are familiar with it, you can come to me, let's hurry up and go through the familiarization and familiarization. ”

He also knew that Chen Shuo had only gotten the complete script the day before yesterday, so he didn't have too much demand for him.

Just thinking that if he watched the first few episodes, he could try to read the script.

After all, although it is said that the film will start in September, now every day that the crew drags is a day's money, and Zhang Jizhong is also urging him to start the film as early as possible.

If Chen Shuo doesn't hurry up and prepare, maybe Duan Yu's role will be run in on the spot.

When Chen Shuo saw him ask like this, he suddenly remembered that he should have told him first if he had doubts about the script.

There are quite a few directors in the crew of "Tianlong", in addition to several main directors such as Zhou Xiaowen, Ju Jueliang, Yu Min, Zhao Jian, etc., there are also six or seven executive assistant directors and six or seven martial arts instructors.

The martial arts instructors are under the command of Zhao Jian, who is responsible for everyone's martial arts action training every day.

Under the command of Zhou Xiaowen, each executive deputy director specializes in handling the specific affairs of some crews.

Among them, Jiang Tong was specially responsible for organizing everyone to read the script before the start-up.

"Director Jiang, I was just about to ask you about the script."

As he was talking, the elevator arrived, and Jiang Tong said, "Then, let's talk while walking?" ”

"Okay." Chen Shuo followed him and said, "I read the script twice after I got it, and I was a little puzzled by some of Duan Yu's scenes, and I wanted to ask the director for advice. ”

"You say."

According to the description in the original book, Duan Yu appeared as soon as he followed Ma Wude, an old martial artist and tea merchant in southern Yunnan, to visit Wuliang Mountain, and happened to bump into the Wuliang Sword Sect's own martial arts competition.

Because Zuo Zimu's apprentice won the opponent with a fake fall, Duan Yu couldn't help but sneer when he saw it, which made people unhappy, and he had the intention to make him angry, and the two sides clashed.

In our script, Duan Yu was playing in the mountains and rivers when he appeared, and when he was drinking water by the stream, he found that there were blood stains in the river, and he came to the Wuliang Mountain Wuliang Sword Sect in the direction of the water, and was encountering the Shennong Gang attacking the Wuliang Sword Sect.

I can understand the reason for such revisions, after all, the space is limited, and some irrelevant scenes can be deleted.

But I don't understand why Duan Yu would rush into the melee battlefield to stop this battle when he doesn't know martial arts? ”

Chen Shuo paused, and then said: "Although he doesn't know martial arts and doesn't like fighting, he is not a broad person.

As I understand it, he will take the risk of dissuading both sides from letting go of their arguments before the battle begins.

But when the battle began, he was not self-righteous, and with his own powerless scholar, he wanted to rush into the battlefield to stop a big battle. ”

Speaking of Duan Yu, probably most people's impression may be the word dementia.

But in fact, he only looks stupid and stupid when he faces Wang Yuyan.

The rest of the time, not only is he not demented, but he can be fearless and alert and decisive.

At the beginning, he was fearless when faced with someone else's sword against his chest, and he was suddenly slapped and his face was swollen and he didn't care.

knew that it was a broken intestine, but when he knew that he had to eat, he still ate it without hesitation, and joked that it tasted sweet.

A person with such a mind and bearing is not like a person who will recklessly run to the center of other people's fights to persuade him.

A slight comparison between the original book and the script is not difficult to find that the way in the original book makes the character of Duan Yu more plump and reasonable.

And this part of the plot in the script is a little too stupid.

Although Chen Shuo said that he was puzzled and wanted to ask for advice, Jiang Tong still heard it, he felt that the script was unreasonable and problematic.

I couldn't help frowning secretly in my heart, although the stage of reading the script was to find out the unreasonable things in the script, and then discuss and improve it.

But generally speaking, the changes are all in the lines, and rarely involve changes to the plot.

The creation of a play involves all aspects and departments, and it is not just the script that needs to be moved if you want to change the play.

If you want to change the plot, it involves modifying the design and shooting plan, and even affects the duration of the finished film.

Of course, it's not that it can't be changed, after all, before filming starts, this script is not set in stone.

Even when filming starts, if the director or screenwriter has any new ideas, or fails to meet the scheduled shooting requirements, he will change the scene on the spot.

Moreover, Chen Shuo was invited by Zhang Jizhong, Zhou Xiaowen and others to replace Lin Zhiying, and was highly recognized by Mr. Jin Yong, so it is not impossible to change the script.

It's just that he can't make a claim on this matter, so he has to say: "I really can't answer your question for a while."

In this way, I just have something to find Director Zhou, you follow me to ask.

Or just ask him to help you find someone from the screenwriting team to guide you? ”

Chen Shuo didn't make it clear that he wanted to change the play, so he naturally wouldn't break it, but just dumped the matter on Zhou Xiaowen and the screenwriter team and let them solve it on their own.

"That's troublesome Director Jiang."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's not troublesome." Jiang Tong said and took him to the makeup team.

After arriving, I found that not only Zhou Xiaowen was there, but even Zhang Jizhong and Ju Jueliang and others were there.

Liu Yifei and Shu Wei have already started to try on, and Jiang Xin and Liu Tao are also trying on together, the two of them just decided to play Mu Wanqing some time ago, and it is just today's turn to try on.

When Chen Shuo saw it, hey, except for Ah Zi, his sisters were all here.

Zhang Jizhong and the others turned around when they heard the movement, and when they saw him, they beckoned and said, "Chen Shuo, you came just in time, these are all your sisters in the play."

Let's take a look, how are they looking?

If it appeals to you, it will definitely appeal to the audience. ”

"The styling and choreography of our crew, which was designed by Mr. Song, I don't even need to look at it to know that I will definitely be able to show the essence of the characters in the play." Chen Shuo came to Zhang Jizhong's side and said with a smile.

Song Hongrong, the art designer of the crew, won the Best Art Direction Award at the 3rd Xiangjiang Film Awards, and is also a professor of Beijing Film Awards.

The Yongkang "Tianlong Babu" Film and Television City in Zhejiang Province and the "Tianlong Babu" Film and Television City in Dali, Yunnan Province, which are now under construction, were designed and presided over by him.
