Chapter 535 It’s My Fault (66,000 Words Updated!)

The latest episode of "Young Days" is broadcast.

This is the last issue of the Venice International Film Festival, and the thank you dinner hosted by Lu Yanhe has become the main content of this issue.

In this episode, Lu Yanhe finally became the protagonist. The entire episode revolved around Lu Yanhe's preparation for the dinner, running through other people's content and slowly unfolding.

When preparing for a dinner party, various problems always arise.

But these issues are rarely exposed to the public. Because in most cases, everyone will not have the opportunity to hold such a flashy large-scale dinner party.

In the show, Lu Yanhe had a saying that was widely circulated.

"In the past few years, I have had an experience, which may not be correct, but it is now my code of conduct: when entertaining others, if you have spent 50 yuan, don't be reluctant to spend another 100 yuan."

This statement caused some controversy, but more discussion.

Discuss the ways of the world and the rules of social interaction.

In the comment areas of Lu Yanhe's various social platforms, he saw some fans lamenting that the once young and clean idol now has a sense of society.

Lu Yanhe was stunned.

A sense of community?

Lu Yanhe thought for a while and laughed.

All right.

People will change no matter what.

How can it stay in one place without any changes?

-

Lu Yanhe exited his social platform interface and was about to turn off his phone when a message suddenly came in.

Miao Yue sent him the first draft of the drama version of "Rouge Button".

She said: I have finally finished writing it, but no one has given it to me yet. I want to hear your opinion first.

Lu Yanhe: OK.

He opened the electronic file of "Rouge Button" and saw that it had more than 400,000 words and a total of twenty-six episodes.

Lu Yanhe forwarded it to Wang Biao and asked him to print it into a manuscript and send it to him.

There are too many words and it would be difficult to read on a mobile phone.

The first draft of the drama version of "Rouge Button" has finally come out.

When Miao Yue was writing this script, she had been communicating with him and keeping in touch.

Lu Yanhe knew Miao Yue's idea of ​​creating this script——

Based on the movie version, she expanded the stories of many women in the brothel where Ruhua lives to enrich the details of the background of that era.

In general, the main plot of the story has not changed, but a lot of enrichment and filling has been done. For example, Ruhua's life in the brothel is only briefly touched on in the movie, and the main focus is on her and the Twelve Young Masters together. In fact, the Twelve Young Masters are absent most of the time Ruhua spends in the brothel. In this case, what was her life like? Apart from her, there were all kinds of women in brothels at that time, and what kind of stories did they have.

Similarly, Miao Yue also played tricks on the Twelve Young Masters' big family, adding origin-like descriptions to the Twelve Young Masters' affection, cowardice, and selfishness, and focused on depicting the overt and secret struggles in such a large house. Mutual harm and selfishness. The twelve young men who grew up in such an environment were not only attached to the love and warmth that Ruhua gave him, but also laid the foundation for him not to end up in hell with Ruhua in the end.

At the same time, she also expanded the couple in the modern context, incorporating the modern men and women's views on marriage and love, and made a comparison between ancient and modern times. In the context of grand history, the love between Ruhua and the Twelve Young Masters is tragic. Modern men and women are also entangled in the shortcomings of their parents. While they help Ruhua find the Twelve Young Masters, they also face pressure from their families to examine them. Love between two people.

Lu Yanhe felt that Miao Yue's idea was a good idea for the adaptation of "Rouge Button".

Miao Yue did not want to make another work of art, but used storytelling to enrich the story, from the freehandism of the movie version to the realism of the drama version.

Lu Yanhe has been looking forward to the script written by Miao Yue.

A story like "Rouge Button" is just right for Miao Yue to write at her age. In the final analysis, it is not a particularly heavy story. Miao Yuelai was the one to write it, and he would not pretend to be a classic, nor would he write it in a way that would make the story full of blood.

However, how to find actors for the drama version of "Rouge Button" is quite a headache.

In any case, the roles of Twelve Young Masters and Ruhua are difficult to play. Especially Ruhua, with Chen Bige’s pearls and jade in front.

These two roles must be played by already famous actors in order to hold up the scene. A newcomer can't play this role, it can't be suppressed.

Of course, it was actually not Lu Yanhe's turn to be anxious here.

After all, this drama is produced by Icefield Video.

-

Chen Bige heard from Lu Yanhe that after the first draft of the drama version of "Rouge Button" came out, he also wanted to read it.

She has always said that "Rouge Button" is the best movie script she has received in the past two years. In fact, this movie also helped her win the Best Actress award at the Spanish Film Festival, and then won the Best Actress crown at the four major international film festivals, making her one of the top Chinese actresses.

She also hopes that adapting such a story into a TV series will not ruin it.

After Lu Yanhe told Miao Yue, he also made a copy for Chen Bige.

The two of them were at the filming site of "Seventeenth Floor" and read the script of "Rouge Button".

The two of them were reading a thick script in their hands, which made many people in "Seventeenth Floor" a little curious as to what they were reading.

Li Yuefeng was the first to ask Lu Yanhe: "What script are you reading? Are you and Sister Bige going to collaborate again?"

Lu Yanhe then explained what kind of script this was.

When Li Yuefeng heard that it turned out to be the drama version of "Rouge Button", his mind started to move.

"Has the male lead been decided? If not, let me play the role." He was not polite at all and asked for it.

Lu Yanhe said: "It hasn't been decided yet, but one is that I don't have the final say on this show. It's made by Icefield Video. They bought the copyright and the script was written by Miao Yue. Please let me help you check it out. The other one is that even if I have the final say, You know, we still have to audition, and we have to find the most suitable actor.”

Li Yuefeng will play the role of the Twelve Young Masters?

It wasn't that Lu Yanhe looked down on Li Yuefeng, it was that he felt that Li Yuefeng was too inappropriate.

His image doesn't have the air of a young man - the kind of person who has been pampered since he was a child, but who seems a bit indecisive at first glance.

Li Yuefeng is actually the kind of sunny and cheerful school boy.

He is more suitable for the role of male protagonist in a movie like "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

When Lu Yanhe said this, Li Yuefeng gave him a somewhat depressed look.

"You can't trust me so much?"

"Do you want to hear the truth?" Lu Yanhe asked.

Li Yuefeng nodded, "You say."

"I think you are not suitable for the role of Twelve Young Masters." Lu Yanhe said bluntly.

Li Yuefeng: "..."

"You also asked me to audition for "Squid Game" last time." Li Yuefeng's tone was a bit complaining.

"Actually, if you had come to audition for "Squid Game" last time, you would have had great hopes of getting the role." Lu Yanhe also said bluntly, "The only hesitation I had about you last time was that you acted in "Seventeenth Floor" "Would it be difficult for the audience to tell the difference if you play a similar subject again? Apart from this, I think you are very suitable for the role of Liu Zefan in every aspect."

Li Yuefeng looked at Lu Yanhe in disbelief, "Then you still let me audition?!"

"I said, almost every role requires an audition, makeup, styling, and a final look before you can decide." Lu Yanhe said, "Even if I think you are suitable, this step is still needed."

Li Yuefeng: "Holy crap, I just missed out on a role that could have made me globally famous?"

The young policeman played by Liu Zefan is indeed very popular, especially in Asian countries.

Lu Yanhe said: "You don't have to think about it that way. It's just a play and a role. There will be many plays and many roles in the future. Li Yuefeng, I really regard you as a friend. That's why I'm telling you this. Don't You are always afraid of auditioning. Even if the producer does not require you to audition, you should take the initiative to ask for it, set your makeup, and try out a scene. Find people who will tell you the truth, listen to their opinions, and don't be afraid that you are not suitable for the role. If you can find this out before filming starts, it is a good thing. Any film must win the audience. If you can find out in advance that you are not suitable for a role, you can avoid a performance that may fail. "

What Lu Yanhe said is completely in conflict with Li Yuefeng's understanding of acting.

Li Yuefeng hesitated and said nothing.

Lu Yanhe said no more.

All in all, if Li Yuefeng wants to act in his drama, it is okay. In fact, Lu Yanhe is still inclined towards him now, and there is no rejection after the first cooperation with him in "Seventeen Floors" (he must admit this, he was not so good at the beginning) He didn't want to meet Li Yuefeng because he felt that Li Yuefeng was too utilitarian), but auditions and auditions were indispensable links, and he had to take this step no matter what the relationship was.

Now the only people who have not accepted this link from him are three people, Chen Bige, Jiang Yuqian, and Jiang Jun. Even Huang Kairen is a serious person who has tried acting and makeup. The three of them didn't have to go through this step because Lu Yanhe had already thought about filming with them before tailoring the script for them.

Maybe in the future Lu Yanhe feels that Li Yuefeng really needs such a script to make a breakthrough, and Lu Yanhe will also write such a script for Li Yuefeng, but not now.

Lu Yanhe didn't know whether his refusal would alienate Li Yuefeng from him.

He hoped that Li Yuefeng would really understand one thing. The inappropriate fit was a forceful one, and it was really not sweet.

"This script is well written, but does the structure need to be tweaked again?" After reading the script written by Miao Yue, Chen Bige said, "I think each paragraph has good content, but when put together, it is a bit messy. The feeling is not so coherent, especially from the seventh to the seventh episode. In these eleven episodes, almost all the content is used to talk about the troubles in the family of the Twelve Young Masters. Although the writing is wonderful, the flowery story line and the line between the two modern people have not been advanced or disappeared. It’s the same. As a drama, it still needs to be adjusted, right?”

Lu Yanhe nodded and said: "I feel the same way about this place. I can understand why Miao Yue wrote like this, instead of working on multiple fronts. She probably hoped to write down clearly the things in the Twelve Young Masters' family in one go. , she used a particularly risky writing method. The Twelve Young Masters have a lot of family members. They need to figure out the relationship between their characters and explain their entire family history clearly within a few episodes. If it is not concentrated. If you write it, the audience may not remember it.”

"Then why not cut off some characters?" Chen Bige said, "This is also the second point I want to say. I can understand why it is necessary to enrich the family situation of the Twelve Young Masters, but in the context of the entire main plot, if it cannot serve Yu caused resistance to the love between Twelve Young Masters and Ruhua , and the explanation of why the Twelve Young Masters are such a person, I think they should be deleted. If Miao Yue really wants to write about this big family story, she can take out this chapter separately, and then make a side story and release it. In the feature film, it greatly affects the overall rhythm.”

Lu Yanhe nodded.

Top actors like Chen Bige have read too many scripts, movies and TV series. Their eyes are already the most cunning, and they know very clearly what is good and what is bad. Moreover, Lu Yanhe did not expect that Chen Bige would put forward so many suggestions so sincerely.

Lu Yanhe summarized Chen Bige's opinions and his own and sent them to Miao Yue.

Miao Yue's first reaction was: Ah, sure enough, you also think this is too bloated. I myself also feel that the family story of the Twelve Young Masters is written too much and too detailed, and I always think that every character does not need facial makeup. In fact, it was written like a small side story.

Lu Yanhe: I can feel that you are trying to achieve the effect of "Dream of Red Mansions" in this part, which is about a family and an era, but it is indeed a bit abrupt in the entire feature film. I think Chen Bige's opinion is very reasonable. , you have already written it in such detail. It would not be appropriate to abandon all of it. Maybe you can make a side volume, film it together, and then broadcast it as an independent side volume.

Miao Yue: OK, let me think about it and communicate with Icefield Video.

Lu Yanhe: Yeah.

As long as a creator has some pursuit, he will have ambition.

Everyone knows that they may not be able to reach the end of "A Dream of Red Mansions" in their entire lives. However, they have been influenced by these classic literary works since childhood. In the process of creation, they will inevitably follow their shadows, because literary views, aesthetic views, and even The method of creating a work will be affected by them.

It is impossible for any family story to avoid being influenced by "Dream of Red Mansions".

Just like any story about strategy, it is impossible to say that it can escape the influence of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Miao Yue's part about the family of the Twelve Young Masters clearly shows traces of influence from "Dream of Red Mansions". If you want to compare, I dare not compare, but it is indeed better. All kinds of characters are all contaminated with the decadent atmosphere of that era. Everyone has the afterglow like the setting sun.

Lu Yanhe even felt that this was the best part of Miao Yue's entire script, where the plot and characters were the smoothest and seemed to come together in one go.

There are indeed differences between women and men.

When Lu Yanhe was asked to write such a family drama, it was hard for him to imagine that he could write it like Miao Yue, who poured a kind of compassion into each character as he watched them come to an end.

-

Two days later, Li Yuefeng came to see Lu Yanhe.

"I have thought about what you said to me in the past two days." Li Yuefeng said to Lu Yanhe seriously, "Although you said that I am not suitable for the role of Twelve Young Masters, I still want to audition. Since you told me, audition It’s such a good process, so I want to see, after my audition, in your eyes, where am I not suitable and where am I worse than others.”

Lu Yanhe did not expect that Li Yuefeng would sharpen his sword as if he was aroused to be competitive.

He nodded and said: "Okay, then let me tell Icefield Video about your interest in this role. I don't know if they will arrange an audition, but I will definitely strongly recommend that they organize an audition. Although it is very possible , they knew you were willing to act, so they decided to cast you directly—Li Yuefeng, I’m not lying to you, I don’t think you are suitable for this role.”

"You don't have to repeat the same thing a second time," Li Yuefeng waved his hand to Lu Yanhe in disgust, "That's why I'm a generous person, so I don't care about you. If it were another person, I would have been angry with you a long time ago."

Lu Yanhe: "..."

-

"This Li Yuefeng, why do you talk so funny?"

On the phone, Chen Siqi smiled.

Lu Yanhe: "I've known him for a long time, and I find that he is indeed quite interesting."

"I understand what you are talking about." Chen Siqi said, "Because he is very direct, so even if he is sometimes very realistic and very philistine, you still think it's good."

"right."

"Have you seen it? Some of your fans said in your comment area that they feel like you have become a philistine." Chen Siqi was talking about the impact of the "Young Days" program.

Lu Yanhe smiled and said: "I saw it, it's good. It would be good if everyone can see that I have changed and that their impression of me is no longer the same as before."

"Many fans are very disappointed and feel that you are no longer the Lu Yanhe they like."

"Then I can't be eighteen forever." Lu Yanhe said.

Chen Siqi: "Aren't you going to explain it to everyone?"

"I don't want to explain." Lu Yanhe said, "I don't want to have to stand up and explain every time I do something that causes controversy. Obviously there is nothing, how can I explain to them that people will grow and change? ? How should I explain that my behavior is not a philistine. This kind of thing cannot be true or true. If I really become a philistine in their eyes, there is no use in explaining it."

"I think you're a little resistant to your fans now."

"I can't say that I am against my fans, but I admit that I don't want to take their evaluation of me seriously now." Lu Yanhe said, "I really cared about it at the beginning, and I can't say that I don't care now. , but I can’t care about every word they say, because I can’t maintain a particularly good state every day, and I can’t say everything I do. One thing and every word said is the most perfect. There must be times when it is not so good, and people will inevitably say, ah, why are you like this, ah, this is not your level, ah, why do I feel so bad? You are a bit perfunctory to us. I really often see such comments in the comment area, and then I can only turn a blind eye to keep my mentality stable."

After saying this, Lu Yanhe was stunned.

"Why did I suddenly tell you this?"

He rarely told Chen Siqi this before.

Chen Siqi smiled and said, "It's good. You're telling me this. I rarely listened to you before."

Lu Yanhe didn't want to bring these negative things to Chen Siqi before.

Chen Siqi: "I feel relieved knowing that your mood is not that stable."

"ah?"

What is the logic of this?

Don’t girls say they like boys to be more emotionally stable?

Chen Siqi did not intend to explain.

She said: "After you finished filming "Seventeen Floors", you should be able to take a break, right?"

"Yes." Lu Yanhe said, "I can rest for about a month, and then I will start filming "Friends"."

"I have to go to the UK to talk to their publisher about publishing the English version. We have always communicated by email before. Let's just go there for a vacation together." Chen Siqi said, "I've been too tired recently. , I want to take a rest.”

Lu Yanhe: "Okay, I'll ask Sister Ziyan if there are any arrangements later and what time is suitable."

"Um."

-

Lu Yanhe finished the phone call and returned to the studio.

He met Song Li again.

This was his last filming in this drama.

This time, Lian Bei talked to him one-on-one about the drama.

Although Lian Bei was really annoyed, he still cared about Song Li's identity. It was impossible to cut out all his scenes, and he still had to leave a few usable scenes in the feature film.

Therefore, Lian Bei carefully told Song Li about the scenes he was going to shoot next.

Lu Yanhe found that Song Li seemed a little more nervous as soon as he appeared.

He knew what was going on now.

Therefore, Lu Yanhe left the shooting scene silently.

He guessed that if he was not around, Song Li would be able to feel less nervous.

Lu Yanhe did not stay on the set, but stayed in his lounge.

About an hour later, there was a knock on the door.

Lu Yanhe said "come in" and stood up, thinking that it was the staff who came to remind him that it was time for his filming.

What he didn't expect was that the person who knocked on the door and came in was Song Li.

"Teacher Lu." Song Li stood at the door nervously, looking at him.

Lu Yanhe glanced at him in surprise, then realized his purpose, smiled, nodded, and said, "Hello, Song Li."

Song Li was stunned.

He asked in surprise: "Do you know me?"

Lu Yanhe nodded and said, "Of course."

Song Li scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "My acting was so bad that it delayed the progress of the crew. I'm really sorry."

He thought it was for this reason that Lu Yanhe remembered him.

Lu Yanhe didn't explain much.

"Today is your last shoot, right?"

Song Li nodded and said: "I'm leaving after today's filming, so, I want to say hello to you before I leave. I...I want to come to the set to experience it because of you. Of course, now I found that I am not suitable and I will never act again.”

He said with some embarrassment.

Lu Yanhe nodded.

"You...then what are you going to do in the future?"

Song Li thought for a while and said, "My family helped me contact a director and asked me to go to his company to learn first. Although my acting skills are terrible, I still like this industry very much and I want to continue working in this industry." ”

"Okay." Lu Yanhe laughed, "Fortunately, this filming didn't make you disgusted with film and television dramas."

"How could it be? I've watched you perform live several times and I was stunned." Song Li said, "It's just that I didn't live up to my expectations."

"But I know that you have always wanted to do this well." Lu Yanhe said, "Let's become friends."

"Ah?" Song Li looked at Lu Yanhe in surprise, not expecting that Lu Yanhe would take the initiative to add him as a friend.

Lu Yanhe said: "Actually, I knew why you came to this crew before, and I also thought about whether to take the initiative to chat with you, but I was worried that it would make you more uncomfortable, so I just kept it as it was. I didn't change it. I don’t know what I can do for you, but I am lucky that someone is interested in this industry because of me, so if you need me in the future, you can always come to me.”

Song Li looked at Lu Yanhe in shock and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

"Are you such a nice person?"

Lu Yanhe smiled and shrugged, "It's okay, not very good. It's just as good as I can."

Song Li was stunned and added Lu Yanhe as a friend.

After knocking on the door, things went completely beyond Song Li's expectations and plans.

Lu Yanhe nodded to Song Li.

"The next scene should be mine, I have to prepare." Lu Yanhe said, "I wish you a happy ending."

Song Li came back to his senses and nodded, "Thank you."

This was the first time he heard someone say this to him.
