Chapter 113 Sheng Yixia! Are You Here to Usurp Power? (Monthly Vote Requested)

The middle-aged screenwriter looked aggrieved and began to complain in tears: "My name is [Ning Tianyi]. Nine years ago, I was also a handsome, talented, and inspirational powerful screenwriter. But just when I was in high spirits, I was killed by that Zhao San cheated and got into the Super Shield crew."

"I originally thought that Zhao San was a well-known director, and he had a huge amount of money and connections, and he was gearing up to do something big. Who would have thought that one version after another of my scripts would be criticized by Zhao San as worthless? , under his guidance, I kept changing, changing, changing! ”

"It wasn't until I looked back later that I realized that my script had changed beyond recognition. The main plot had been changed to pieces and was difficult to piece together. I realized something was wrong and wanted to leave my job, but I was reluctant because the sunk cost was too high."

"I'm also thinking about what if, what if it explodes?"

"In the past nine years, I have delayed my youth and wasted countless time. I am just Zhao San's tool, sinking and killing myself little by little on the set..."

"Woo!"

As he said that, Ning Tianyi took out his mobile phone and showed everyone his photos from nine years ago.

Sheng Yixia took a look and found that the words "handsome and handsome" were completely unrelated to him nine years ago, but it could also be seen that he was indeed high-spirited, high-spirited and very different from now.

At least, there was light in his eyes at that time.

"Of course, this is my own choice anyway, and I can't blame Zhao San entirely." The middle-aged screenwriter suddenly looked serious and said solemnly, "But Teacher Sheng's simulated girlfriend was like a light, illuminating me instantly. , and it was like a thunder, waking me up, and——"

"Okay, okay." Sheng Yixia quickly interrupted his flattery and corrected, "It's the bionic girlfriend! Besides, the success of this film is not due to me alone."

"Yes, yes, yes." The middle-aged screenwriter nodded in agreement, "But I have inquired about it. The original script of the bionic girlfriend was not very good. It was Teacher Sheng who turned the bad into a miracle. And the most important thing is that from the filming to the It only took a month for the later version to be put on the shelves, and our Super Shield Bureau————-wuwug~,

When he thought about the nine years of delay, he wanted to cry. The gap between people was too big.

"So, what about Teacher Ning's previous works? I mean the ones before Super Shield." Hearing his tearful accusation, Sheng Yixia also felt that the screenwriter was a bit pitiful.

In fact, he also knew that it was common for the screenwriter's script to be changed at the request of the employer and director, but it was really rare for Ning Tianyi to be as miserable as this.

Liu Xinming and the screenwriters of the crew also expressed sympathy for him.

"Yes, yes, I've prepared my resume." The middle-aged screenwriter took out a resume and handed it to Sheng Yixia respectfully.

Sheng Yixia took it and looked at it carefully, and found that the screenwriter actually graduated from Beijing Film Screenwriting Major, and there were many familiar works in the scripts he had participated in in the past.

There is even a work by the main screenwriter that has received good response. Although it is not a big hit, it still has decent results.

What a talent. Sheng Yixia was a little shocked, but he immediately felt that this was the case. If Ning Tianyi wasn't a screenwriter with a professional background, how could it be possible for Zhao San to recruit him as the chief screenwriter with his temperament?

In addition, his background as a major gave him a lot of points in Sheng Yixia.

That’s not to say that Yeluzi screenwriters are necessarily worse than Keban. Some Yeluzi screenwriters who can fight through thousands of troops are also very strong.

However, screenwriters who have received systematic education will have good advantages in the overall structure of the plot, succession and transition, and drama principles.

Of course, the specific situation still depends on the individual, and there are also many incompetent screenwriters with academic backgrounds.

Seeing Sheng Yixia in deep thought, the greasy middle-aged assistant director also stepped forward and said sincerely: "Teacher Sheng, why don't you, for the sake of us coming all the way to join you, give us a test?" ? If you are not satisfied, we brothers will turn around and leave without saying a word and will never harass you.

This makes sense.

Sheng Yixia nodded and said: "Okay, you have to rely on your true ability to speak a thousand words."

With that said, he turned to look at Liu Xinming and said, "Brother Liu, can I borrow your crew's venue and equipment?"

"What are you talking about, Yixia?" Liu Xinming said with a look of displeasure, "This is our own crew. We just give you instructions for what we want to do. What do we need to borrow or not?"

Come on, Liu Xinming is also a talented person who can climb up the ladder.

However, judging from his support for Sheng Yixia and his bionic girlfriend on V-blog before they officially cooperated, Liu Xinming is also a man who understands the situation clearly.

Think about it too.

How could a person who can get into the middle level of T-station video and have the opportunity to start a business and organize a game be a stupid fool?

It was also at this time.

A very fashionable little Taoist boy walked over from across the street, greeted Sheng Yixia and said, "Senior, it's really hard to find a position in this crew."

Sheng Yixia greeted him with a smile and introduced the little Taoist boy to everyone: "This is Zhang Junhao. He is an authentic professional Taoist passed down from his ancestors. He is the kind who has a Taoist temple in his family and wants to inherit it. And he was just admitted to Aurora University this year. He's my junior."

When Liu Xinming first saw that Zhang Junhao was young and very fashionable, he felt a little nervous.

However, after hearing the introduction, he suddenly became enthusiastic. He shook hands with Xiao Daotong and praised him repeatedly. He bluntly said that he had a bright future, which made Xiao Daotong look a little at a loss.

This kid is rarely seen in the market and can easily be fooled.

After some pleasantries.

Everyone entered the studio and found some benches to sit on, while the set manager got each a bottle of water.

After sitting down, Sheng Yixia originally wanted the middle-aged screenwriter Ning Tianyi to outline the main plot of Legend of Sword Immortal and Conquer Demons and discuss modification plans.

However, Ning Tian scanned the scenes in the studio one by one, as well as the banners held by the crew, Taoist Demons and Demons, etc., and took the initiative to say: "Teacher Sheng, can I read the script of our film?"

Now, without Sheng Yixia having to say anything, Liu Xinming waved his hand and said, "Okay, who is that? Bring four copies of the script and distribute them to all the teachers."

His assistant immediately took the script and distributed it.

Seeing this, the director and screenwriter looked uncomfortable, but they didn't object.

observed this scene.

Sheng Yixia already knew who was the boss in this crew. The producer Liu Xinming had a lot of say, but the director's authority seemed insufficient. As for the screenwriter——not to mention, it felt like he didn't have the say.

This is not a good thing.

If the producer is too strong, it is easy for the director and screenwriter to be submissive and become tool men.

But major movies are essentially a kind of creation, which requires strong subjective creativity and conscious aesthetics. If the director and screenwriter cannot give full play to their creativity and imagination, the quality of the finished film may be worrying.

However, Sheng Yixia didn't understand it at all.

If he guessed correctly, the director was either not qualified enough or not confident enough in himself, which is why he behaved like this.

Among the directors Sheng Yixia has come into contact with, the most powerful ones are of course Mr. Ba and Director Chen. They have very distinct personalities, and their personal opinions and ideas are very strong.

Of course, the personalities of the domineering Director Li and the dedicated Director Chen are still very different. The former has a more assertive personality.

He has a strong personal style, and it is difficult for other people's opinions to sway his ideas, while the latter is more inclusive. Once he is "persuaded" and makes sense to him, he can still change his mind.

For the time being, Sheng Yixia suppressed all her thoughts and read the script again.

The script of the Internet University is actually not long, only about 20,000 words.

Half an hour later, middle-aged screenwriter Ning Tianyi took the lead in closing the script. After thinking for a while with his eyes closed, he said, "Teacher Sheng, Mr. Liu, I'll lend you the crew's whiteboard."

This time the screenwriter said directly: "Okay, I will move it for you."

As he said that, he found a floor attendant and brought the whiteboard over with him, with a somewhat unpleasant coldness in his eyes. In fact, he looked down on Ning Tianyi at all, and kept blaming Zhao San for the whole Super Shield movie.

What's more, Ning Tianyi has been idle in the Super Shield crew for nine years, and he has long been unable to keep up with the times. He had put a lot of thought into the script of Dao Tu Fu Mo Lu, but he didn't believe that Ning Tianyi could change the script to perfection.

The screenwriter of the crew is ready. He is going to have a PK competition between screenwriters and screenwriters with Ning Tianyi to let him understand that even the screenwriters of the Internet University are not that easy to be.

As soon as Ning Tian took the ink pen, thanked him and said bluntly: "It can be seen that our Taoist Priest Conquers the Demons refers to many excellent Hong Kong films from the early years and quoted many classic elements. If the overall quality of the story is passable, it should be able to sell for money·——.——”

The screenwriter's face softened slightly, but before he could speak, Ning Tianyi suddenly changed the subject: "But stitching too many classic elements and plots will also make the overall plot become messy and unclean. Many plots are actually forced parts, and even if they are cut, it will not affect the progress of the plot at all. "

The screenwriter immediately changed his face and retorted: "But these scenes are quite interesting, aren't they? The audience will also smile knowingly after watching it, right?"

"Then are you filming a joke or a plot? Does the plot serve the joke, or does the joke serve the plot?" Ning Tianyi retorted mercilessly, "There are many places in this script that are designed to express The jokes, forcibly twisting the plot and sacrificing the characters to serve the jokes, are acceptable once or twice, but if they are repeated too many times, it makes me feel that this is a movie made up of jokes.”

The screenwriter's face suddenly looked a little uncomfortable.

Ning Tianyi continued: "From the perspective of drama principles, a good joke should be the spice of the entire plot.

It should also be interesting jokes that are naturally derived from the plot, rather than taking over the main role and making a good movie full of MSG flavor. It's okay for the first bite, but it gets better as you eat it. "

This makes sense.

Sheng Yixia nodded secretly after hearing this, and Liu Xinming also thought about it.

The crew editor opened his mouth several times, but Que Wen could not refute.

"Secondly, there is the problem of the frame structure of this film." Ning Tianyi began to write on the whiteboard, "Let's first apply the traditional three-act film structure, and we will find that the plot distribution structure of our film is obviously It’s too top-heavy. The appearance of each character, background explanation, and narrative length in the early stage are a bit lengthy, and the conflicts and plot extensions in the middle stage are not full and substantial enough.”

"Especially around the 50-minute mark, this should be the darkest moment, that is, pushing down the plot point, so as to generate greater motivation for the subsequent boss fight and increase the sense of satisfaction. However, this is not done in the script. If it’s not enough, the male and female protagonists are just making things up, talking about love, and forcing the plot.”

"In terms of the design of the BOSS battle, the sense of oppression is not strong enough, and the plot twist is not convincing enough. It needs to be readjusted."

“Swish, swish, swish!

Ning Tianyi kept writing and drawing on the whiteboard, analyzing the problems of the original script one by one. In many places, he hit the nail on the head and pointed out the problems very clearly.

Sheng Yixia also felt enlightened after hearing this.

The main reason why he changed to a bionic girlfriend before was because he loved watching science fiction movies and had more material in his mind.

In addition, logic is his strong point, so he can successfully change it. However, he does not have enough accumulation of elements in this type of fantasy themes, and his judgment is not sharp enough. Therefore, although he thinks the script is ordinary, he cannot say what the specific problems are. came out, but after being analyzed by Ning Tianyi, it was indeed found that there were still many problems with the script.

He quickly arranged and combined it in his mind. If he revised the script according to Ning Tianyi's opinions, it would indeed make the whole film more full and three-dimensional, with a clearer and neater structure, and the plot would not be as scattered as it is now.

Of course, the specific results will depend on the final presentation of the script.

But in his heart, he had already accepted Ning Tianyi's frame of mind, and turned to look at Liu Xinming: "Brother Liu,

What do you think? "

Liu Xinming looked at Ning Tianyi and then took a sneak peek at Sheng Yixia. Now a conspiracy theory sprouted in his head.

That was Sheng Yixia, the "big drama tyrant" of the crew. In order to get rid of the "notoriety" of the big drama tyrant, he deliberately played a double act with Ning Tianyi. The purpose was to use Ning Tianyi's mouth to change the script, and he didn't have to do it again. Take on the reputation of being a great drama player.

Otherwise, how could it happen that he had just arrived on the set, and Ning Tian and the others came to kill him as soon as he came?

Damn it.

As expected of "Mr. Thirty Million", his acting skills are so tough. Unfortunately for him, Liu Xinming just now really thought that these two guys came here to join him after a long career.

but.

Ask him what to do?

What can Liu Xinming do? Is it possible that I can still say to Sheng Yixia, get lost, you big drama tyrant?

Then, haha, when the time comes, the management and T station will tear Liu Xinming apart. You know, T station is now very greedy for the new data of the bionic girlfriend.

"Okay, very good." Liu Xinming suddenly slapped his thigh and praised with bright eyes, "You are worthy of Ichika, your insights on the script are really to the point."

Sheng Yixia was stunned: "Brother Liu, this is Teacher Ning's idea."

"Yes, yes, this is not your idea, it is Teacher Ning's." Liu Xinming slapped his head and pretended to say, "Teacher Ning's insights are really inspiring and make me reflect again and again.

,

But I cursed secretly in my heart, this damn entertainment industry is really a good place to hone one's skills.

Even a big drama star like Sheng Yixia learned to wear a vest for himself so quickly.

In the past, I just modified the script myself.

Now it's better to bring the screenwriter directly into the group.

This kind of spectacle can only be achieved by top-notch, top-notch actors, right?

When the crew directors and screenwriters on the side saw that even the most authoritative producer Liu Xinming was lying down, as if he was letting you have fun with Sheng Yixia as you wanted, what else could they say?

They could only pose each other, with smiles on their faces and praises repeatedly, praising Ning Tian to the sky.

Now Ning Tianyi was dumbfounded.

Damn it, I just analyzed it and haven't started to make any formal changes yet. Why are you kneeling down one by one?

This reminded him of the previous nine years. Every time he put forward any ideas or suggestions, Zhao San would criticize them fiercely and then give him a set of values.

And the treatment now is like the difference between heaven and hell compared with that then.

Could it be that I, Ning Tianyi, am really a genius in the screenwriting world?

Oops, Zhao San’s stubbornness misled me.

No, what Sand Dollar misunderstood was the development of the entire film art. During the years that he was delayed, how many excellent films did he produce?

Thinking of this, Ning Tianyi felt the urge to beat his chest and sigh.

If God had not given birth to me, I would rather have been born. Movies will last forever like a long night.

Zheng Baokun, the deputy director of the Super Shield Bureau on the side, saw Ning Tian showing off his power and high spirits. He was envious and came up to him and said, "Teacher Sheng, how about you also test me?"

"this----."

Sheng Yixia had just seen Ning Tianyi's level, and she had some expectations for Zheng Baokun.

Let's not talk about Zhao San's aesthetics and consciousness in making movies. At least, with his high requirements, the deputy director he chose must have two skills.

"Okay, then Teacher Zheng, please show your skills." Sheng Yixia said, "The personnel here are at your disposal, and the equipment can be used as you like. You need to get familiar with it first."

"You don't need to be familiar with it. These equipments are very crude." Zheng Baokun straightened his back immediately. As he swept across the studio, a strong self-confidence suddenly surged out of him, as if he was transforming into a general who was about to be invincible on the battlefield. The greasy look just now was gone.

He first took out a pen and paper from his backpack, and began to sketch out some simple shots. Then he threw them to Sheng Yixia and said, "You are familiar with these shots. While putting on makeup, um, um, Tianyi, you and Xiaoxia Talk about drama.”

Xiao Xia?

Sheng Yixia's mouth twitched, you just called me Teacher Sheng! ?

However, he still raised doubts and said: "Teacher Zheng——

"Call me Director Zheng." Zheng Baokun glanced at him unhappily, "On my set, I don't like actors to question my arrangements too much. Since this is your first offense, tell me what's the matter."

Damn it!

Is this bastard director so quick to get into the role?

Sheng Yixia's eyes twitched, but she still raised her hand and said, "We are just trying out the play, do we need to put on makeup?"

"Swish!"

Zheng Baokun stared at Sheng Yixia: "Try out the play?"

"As the saying goes, the theater is like a battlefield. How much effort and sweat does every shot contain? Do you think this is a game? Put on makeup, don't let me say it a second time!"

Damn it!

This method of establishing the director's authority...

Liu Xinming and the director and screenwriter of the crew next to him were all dumbfounded.

Damn it, you bastard, are you sure you are here to apply for a job with this attitude?

Okay.

Sheng Yixia actually appreciated this work attitude, which made him feel like he was facing Director Li and Director Chen.

If he didn't have some confidence, he wouldn't dare to be so arrogant.

He immediately called a makeup artist to do the makeup, and Ning Tianyi followed and said, "Teacher Sheng, don't blame Director Zheng. He has been angry for these years. Before we left, Zhao San also blamed us."

"We are now thinking about doing something, and slapping Zhao San hard."

"Director Zheng has strong overall strength, but Zhao San is more powerful, and he has turned him into a tool."

"I understand." Sheng Yixia said with a smile, "Teacher Ning, you should tell me about the play, so that Director Zheng won't get angry if the filming is not good."

Ning Tianyi nodded slightly, and while Sheng Yixia was putting on makeup, he told him in detail about the next play to be filmed: "In fact, this play mainly tells the fight scene of the first monster encountered by the protagonist after bidding farewell to his master and going down the mountain. It requires a high level of fighting skills from you, and also tests his ability in lens design and on-site scheduling."

"But you have to pay attention to one thing, to show the Taoist's elegance, and in the process of fighting, you need to reflect the protagonist's somewhat cynical character in the early stage."

Then

He talked a lot again.

Half an hour later, Sheng Yixia put on a wig, put on makeup, and changed into a flowing Taoist costume. Everyone was stunned at the scene.

Damn, everyone knows that Sheng Yixia is handsome.

But I didn't expect that his temperament after putting on the Taoist costume would be so otherworldly and elegant. Just showing this look would definitely attract a large number of female audiences immediately, okay?

This is not an actor at all, isn't this a humanoid succubus?

At this time, Director Zheng also stopped the scene arrangement. When he turned around and saw Sheng Yixia's appearance, his eyes immediately brightened. After subconsciously circling around Sheng Yixia, he pinched the clothes material and his face suddenly darkened: "Did the costume teacher embezzle? What kind of shitty clothes material is this?"

Liu Xinming hurriedly trotted forward: "Director Zheng, our crew is small, and we can't compare with the hundreds of millions of investment---·

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zheng Baokun and said: "No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in the costumes and props of the protagonist. Let's make do today. I'll give you a contact number and go to customize the best costumes and props immediately."

Damn it!

Liu Xinming was also scolded and looked at Sheng Yixia. Are you sure you didn't collude?

This is to seize power directly, right?

"Brother Liu, I support Director Zheng on this point." Sheng Yixia said, "Don't be afraid of spending money. If the money is not enough, we can ask for more investment. "

Just kidding, the better the quality of the film, the better the quality of the card he draws. Costumes and makeup are part of the quality of the work, in fact, a very important part, and will directly affect the audience's recognition of the role.

And the cards he draws are not for playing, but for the battlefield. Even a little more strength sometimes affects life and death.

"Okay."

Seeing that Sheng Yixia had spoken, Liu Xinming could only write down the number and arrange it later.

"Also, change this makeup artist. His skills are too rough. Ask a famous one in the industry to come."

-"Liu Xinming began to sweat.

"Well, Director Zhang, talk to Xiaoxia about some of the Taoist moves you designed just now. I still need to arrange the camera position and scene here." Zheng Baokun was very polite to the little Taoist boy Zhang Junhao, obviously thinking that he was a Taoist with real skills.

"Okay, Director Zheng." The little Taoist boy came forward with great interest and started to communicate with Sheng Yixia, "Senior, learn my Yu Bu from me, as well as these finger gestures and imperial orders."

Then.

The little Taoist boy demonstrated the steps. His steps were light and graceful, but each step seemed to be very rhythmic and rhythmic, as if it contained the truth of heaven and earth. When he stepped on the ground with the last step, it seemed that an invisible energy spread out from him, and even the ground trembled slightly.

"What is this step?"

"Yu Bu, also known as [Bu Gang Ta Dou], is to walk and turn according to the position of the Big Dipper. It is said that when it is cultivated to the highest level, it can communicate with heaven and earth, send gods and summon spirits, and can also be used to gather energy and exorcise evil spirits. However, I have only practiced the basics."

The stagehand on the side laughed secretly. This guy is quite boastful and speaks as if it is true.

"Interesting." Sheng Yixia briefly re-deduced it in the Super Memory Palace, and then began to imitate him walking. Except for the first two steps which were still a little awkward and immature, by the third step, he had already begun to show his charm. The fourth and fifth steps seemed like a replica of Zhang Junhao.

When he reached the sixth step, his spirit and energy seemed to have merged into one, and his steps were dignified and seemed to reveal an inexplicable majesty.

Damn!

At first, Zhang Junhao was still in a state of mind to watch the show, wondering how long it would take for the senior to barely walk out the general form of the Yu step, one day, two days, or half a month?

You know.

Bu Gang Ta Dou seems simple, but this is a basic skill, easy to learn but difficult to master. If you really want to walk out of the charm, you need to ponder and comprehend for a long time, and reach a state of transcendence before you can barely get started.

But what did he see?

He seemed to see his grandfather.

The posture and charm of his grandfather when walking the Yu step are exactly the same as those of the current senior.

"Pah!"

Sheng Yixia took the seventh step, and a wave of air rushed in all directions like a substance, enveloping the dust on the ground and rolling up a circle of air waves.

"Hua La La!"

The skirt of the makeup artist who was watching the excitement was blown up.

Zhang Junhao's mouth was wide open, as if he could stuff a whole apple in it.

His mind was full of…

Fuck, fuck, fuck!

(Please give me a monthly ticket. I stole half a day's rest on the weekend. Muah)
