Chapter 200 The Birth of the Great Prophet
All thoughts pass by in a flash, and if you don’t have the ability to think more, it’s just nonsense.
Some people's mouths are faster than their brains, and the words are spoken before they have thought clearly. Sun Tao was like that for a while, but he has long since suffered a lot and has a long memory.
He is just a screenwriter. Tian Rui's matter has not been settled yet, so he dares to take matters into his own hands!
Originally, Jin Yan had no idea, so he had to go and tease her. If Sun Tao waited until she got excited, he would tell her that he couldn't do it anymore. That would be nothing but trouble.
——
Sun Tao hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door and started working seriously.
He boiled water and soaked a few pieces of ginseng and deer antler. Sun Tao knew that supplements should not be taken randomly, but he only soaked a few pieces and it shouldn't be a big problem.
There is no rush for "Battle", "Infinite" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". Sun Tao has saved the manuscript, and he does not read the comment section. As long as it is not Lin Pingping or Hu Jingjing (Xiaolong's editor who interfaces with him), Sun Tao will call directly. You can ignore it.
The top priority is still "Charlotte Trouble".
Writing a script is not like writing a novel. When writing a novel, readers are left to figure out the logical illogicalities. If there are flaws in a script, it would be a joke. Once the image is shot, the flaws will be obvious and no one can cover them up.
Sun Tao considers himself not a genius, and what he wants to do now is to reproduce the original movie.
But he didn't rush to write. If a movie made in 2015 was moved to 2003, many changes still had to be made.
For example, audiences in 2015 all know that Jay Chou is a superstar and a leading figure in the Chinese music scene.
But how did the audience in 2003 know that Jay Chou would become a superstar in the future?
After all, the most powerful people in the current music scene are: Adu, Leehom Wang, Kelly Chen, Miriam Yeung, Jen Xianqi...
Jay Chou, he is still just one of the stars.
……
Sun Tao thought about it carefully and found that the original "Charlotte Troubles" did not specify the specific time of the two parties. The only clear time mark was actually the song "Meet 98" that was supposed to be sung by Faye Wong and Na Ying.
In the movie "Meet at 98" became a duet between Charlotte and Na Ying.
According to Zhang Huanchun, the era of Charlotte's life should be set in 2017, and he should be reborn from 2017 to 1997, trying to avoid the present moment.
Avoiding the present, Sun Tao strongly agrees, can avoid a lot of troubles. Not to mention, if Charlotte is reborn from 2023 to 2003, the audience will not have a sense of empathy, and they will not know what will happen after 2003!
And by the time it was reborn in 1997, at least the major trend in the next six years, the audience knew that they could put themselves into the role of Charlotte when they watched the movie.
The timing is very consistent with the original work, so Sun Tao doesn't need to make major changes. He only needs to fictionalize a singing superstar named Sun Tao. Fiction rather than using real people is to consider copyright issues, portrait rights, reputation rights, and Charlotte's return. I want to beat up Sun Tao!
In 2017, Sun Tao experienced it; in 1997, Sun Tao also experienced it.
The background of the times does not matter to Sun Tao. In 2017, China has become the second largest country in the world, with electronic payment, shared bicycles, JD.com, Taobao and Pinduoduo...
……
The main difference was resolved. Sun Tao began to recall the plot. What he told Zhang Huanchun before was just a rough outline, but now he had to write it down in detail.
The story begins in 2017, at a wedding banquet in a large hotel.
Qiu Ya is married to a short, fat black man. Among the guests are Dachun, Teacher Wang, Zhang Yang (I call you brother, you call me dad), Monte (sissy), and of course Yuan Hua who brings his own BGM, but these people are No specific work was specified.
Then there is the protagonist:
For Charlotte, the original work didn't seem to specify what kind of job he did. It was the audience who analyzed Shen Teng's performance that he was a "waste".
Ma Dongmei, Charlotte's wife, the original work did not specify what kind of job she did. It was just judged from the clothes she wore that she worked in the housekeeping industry, cleaning or selling vegetables, etc.
Sun Tao thought for a while and set Xia Luo as a Meituan delivery company and Ma Dongmei as a Didi driver. After all, he was familiar with both industries...
Sun Tao just casually described a wedding banquet in 2017, and unknowingly he wrote about touch screens, QR codes, scanning codes to pay with friends, e-commerce, and the sharing economy.
Sun Tao had no problem describing a wedding banquet. He wrote it very casually. He didn't care about ordinary things at all. Sun Tao forgot that he was writing a comedy, not a science fiction film.
Sun Tao focused on the funny dialogues, and he racked his brains to recall those funny dialogues bit by bit.
Of course, if he can't recall it, it's not funny. If he forgets it, he will forget it... Sun Tao recalled the plot and embedded funny dialogues. At this moment, Sun Tao suddenly felt that he was really the most suitable person to play Charlotte. Because he clearly remembers Shen Teng's expression, tone, and actions.
The same sentence wouldn't be funny if the tone and expression were different.
While Sun Tao was writing his lines, he imitated Shen Teng and acted them out, "Some people are deficient in iron, and some are deficient in calcium. What I lack most is face. Today I used the little face I have." , and it was completely lost..."
"...I don't understand why such a beautiful girl will marry a pig in the end..."
"Although I am not the protagonist today, I want to dress the most handsome. But the saddest thing is that I actually match the dress of the emcee."
Sun Tao even feels that he can also be a director, because he also knows very well how other actors should play.
Master of Ceremony: My colleague, did you go to the wrong room?
Teacher Wang: Students, stay safe!
"Old Wang? Later he was expelled from school for accepting gifts, but he still has the nerve to come."
Yuan Hua: Teacher Wang, my dad gave me a TV set.
Teacher Wang: Yuan Hua is still such a talented person.
Dachun: Teacher, what I am sending is a wall calendar.
Teacher Wang: I can’t remember that teacher. Teachers don’t hold grudges...
Meng Te: Teacher Wang, I am Meng Te, and my current name is Meng Tejiao.
Sun Tao recalled the plot and all the details of the performance.
——
At around six o'clock in the evening, Li Qinglei came back first.
She went to the Spring Festival Gala and even performed as a soloist, but she had no money!
Although it was fun to go shopping, Wen Jianjun wanted to take everyone to a dinner party, so Li Qinglei made an excuse to come back to take care of Tian Rui, so she came back first.
If it is AA, she has no money. If Wen Jianjun wants to treat her, she is not from the song and dance troupe and she is suspected of being a swindler.
Back at the hotel, Li Qinglei did not return to 4307 immediately. She first came to Sun Tao's door and hesitated for at least three minutes before she mustered up the courage. Girls are very sensitive and Sun Tao liked her. She knew it very well, but she didn't care about what Sun Tao was worried about. have no idea.
The girl didn't know how to hide her worries, so she told her best friends about her situation. Her best friends all felt that she should take down Sun Tao. Even if she couldn't be the boss's wife, she should at least be the deputy boss's wife.
The members of the song and dance troupe won't be back until at least ten o'clock from the dinner party. He still has four hours of free time. Four hours should be enough for Sun Tao to perform.
Li Qinglei pressed the doorbell with her hand, but no sound came. Only then did she see the "Do Not Disturb" sign.
"Silly girl, why are you hesitating? If the doorbell doesn't ring, just knock on the door. It's dinner time, how can he not eat!"
Li Qinglei turned her head in surprise. The door of 4307 opened at some point. Tian Rui looked at her with a smile. Her smile seemed very proud, and her radiant face was not sick at all.
"Bang bang bang, bang bang bang"
Wearing a white tights, high-waisted jeans, and sneakers, Tian Rui walked over with brisk steps. She didn't even look at the "Do Not Disturb" sign and knocked on the door.
"Put your down jacket in and wash your face. Don't worry, we are waiting for you here."
