Chapter 42. The Old Fox and the Female Director [Seeking to Follow]

When Sun Yi said this, the entire conference room was instantly silent.

Ten pairs of eyes looked at him at the same time, and those eyes were curious, surprised, confused, and disdainful.

Tian Zhuang took the lead in breaking the deadlock and asked suspiciously:

"Sun Yi, what did you say?"

"Uh, I said I wrote a patient-themed script, and the basic outline and segmented plot have been written, and I ......"

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.

"Hmph, young man, don't be ignorant of the sky, your job is to study, is the script of realistic themes so easy to write, you are young, do you have this experience?"

It was Jiang Wei who was the director of the Department of Literature, and the expression on his face was very serious at the moment.

Wang Jinsong smiled, looked at Jiang Wei, and said:

"Director Jiang, there is a twelve-year-old greeting in ancient times, we must not underestimate young people, whether the script is good or not, just look at it, and there is Director Jiang, your authoritative screenwriter, do we want to give young people a chance?"

While Wang Jinsong was protecting the calf, he also held Jiang Wei in a small hand, but the latter did not speak again.

Then Wang Jinsong looked at Sun Yi and said half-jokingly:

"Come on, our great talent, take out your work and let us read it."

After listening to it, Sun Yi took out the script, and wanted to hand it over to Wang Jinsong, but he didn't expect Director Tian Zhuang to reach out and take it first, and took out a pair of glasses from his arms to look at it.

After a while, Tian Zhuang glanced at Jiang Wei, a trace of sneer leaked from his face, and handed the notebook to Wang Jinsong, and said approvingly:

"That's good, it's a good book, the degree of completion is very high, Director Wang, your acting department is really talented."

Wang Jinsong laughed, did not accept the script, but excused himself:

"There is Director Jiang who is a big player in the industry, so I won't look at it first, and let Director Jiang check it and put forward opinions."

Hearing Tian Zhuang and Wang Jinsong's words, Jiang Wei was also a little curious, so he simply took it over and read it carefully.

"Act I,

Location: Hospital, Operating Theatre.

Male protagonist: (voiceover) Insomnia and amnesia, aphasia and imbalance, hemiplegia and low intelligence, schizophrenia, there are many sequelae that may occur after surgery, if I'm lucky, I'll take one of them to continue to live ......"

The first scene pointed out the identity of the male protagonist, a patient, through several serious surgical sequelae, expressing that the male protagonist's disease is definitely a serious one.

"Well, that's a lot of ideas." Jiang Wei had a little expectation in his heart.

As I continued to watch, the more I watched, the more frightened I became.

Typical Hollywood scriptwriting model, three-act structure.

In the first act, the triggering event, the male and female protagonists are both cancer patients, but they do have completely different attitudes towards life after illness. One is optimistic, the other is decadent, and when the two meet, they collide with all kinds of sparks. Directly engage the audience with the characters and the story.

Act II, Conflict. It depicts the lifestyle of the male and female protagonists' respective families facing illness, as well as the changes and their respective life goals after the male and female protagonists come into contact with each other, and uses progressive dilemmas to keep the audience engaged in and enhance their investment in the story.

The third act, no, is the second and a half acts, through the sudden crisis encountered by the male and female protagonists, mobilize the audience's emotions, and amplify them, so as to resonate.

Finally, the third act introduces the climax through the ending of the story of the male and female protagonists, and puts the audience into thinking about the story as a whole.

After reading it, Jiang Wei was very shocked, he changed his opinion just now, he really couldn't imagine that an 18-year-old freshman student, still in the acting department, could write such a complete and structured realistic script, not to mention, the story in it is still very strong.

Jiang Wei looked at Sun Yi, the big boy with a faint smile on his face, confident, as if he was confident.

After thinking for a moment in his heart, he handed the script in his hand to Xue Xiaolu next to him, and said insincerely:

"It's okay, it's a complete story, the lines are not rigorous enough, and the style of youth love is more ingenious to avoid the heaviness of the realistic theme, I can only say that I have some ideas, Xiao Xue, you can also take a look."

After Sun Yi heard it, he was also a little angry in his heart, I have only written the script for two days, and the lines have not been polished yet, of course it is not rigorous, if the realistic theme is filmed according to pure reality, the artistry is enough, but no audience loves to watch it.

After hearing this, Tian Zuo was not happy, and said: "I think this book is very good, if your literature department can't get it out in a short time, I'm going to use this book." ”

After Jiang Wei heard it, his eyes lit up, and he followed Tian Zhuang's words and said:

"Use this book, it's not impossible, but if this is filmed in the style of youth love, the expression of various emotions in the story is delicate, and it is best for a female director to shoot it."

Jiang Wei talked about the matter, and what he said was quite reasonable, Tian Zhuang nodded and said:

"It's true that female directors are better at this." After speaking, Tian Zhuang thought for a while, frowned slightly, and continued: "There are no female students in this year's directing department."

Jiang Wei wanted this sentence, and immediately picked it up:

"That's right, Lao Tian, you can see it as a professional director, and I agree with it. But there is no one in your class, my little teacher Xue happens to have many years of screenwriting experience, and she is also ready to become a director, so it is better to let her try, and you will give guidance and guidance. ”

When Tian Zhuang, this old fox is waiting for me here, but the words have already been said just now, and I don't know how to refuse for a while.

After Sun Yi heard it, he thought about it carefully and remembered it.

Xue Xiaolu, who was also a well-known female director in later generations, "Ocean Paradise", "BJ Meets Seattle" are all very good works, and the expression of the characters' emotions is very delicate, this book is very suitable for her.

Tian Zhuang thought about it for a long time, and he felt that Sun Yi's book was very good, in line with the requirements of the theme, the story was very strong, very novel, and the degree of completion was high, which could save a lot of preparation time.

In the end, I had to nod and agree, and agreed to use Xue Xiaolu as the director.

After hearing Tian Zhuang's agreement, Jiang Wei immediately changed his face, and said to Sun Yi with a smile: "Sun Yi, are you interested in transferring to our literature department?" Your script is very well written, I think you are very suitable to be a screenwriter, do you think about it? ”

It turned out that Jiang Wei was intentional just now, and he had a heart, so he wanted Xue Xiaolu to be the director, so he put a field in the shape of a field.

After hearing this, Tian Zuo knew that he had been fooled, and scolded with a smile: "Old Jiang, you literati have a lot of eyes."

Sun Yi also saw it, and secretly said that Director Jiang could be described as an old fox among old foxes. It's so fucking shameless.

Sun Yi didn't agree, and passed vaguely.

After the script was passed around, Mr. Cui read it and asked with a smile:

"Sun Yi, your script is tailor-made for yourself, right?"

Sun Yi's old face suddenly turned red, and he scratched his head a little embarrassedly, causing everyone in the room to laugh.

At this time, Xue Xiaolu interjected:

"Sun Yi, what's the name of your script?"

"I'll give you a little red flower."
