let go of that director

Chapter 27 Reversal
As a not-so-successful director in the industry, the leading actor is well-known for his fast, cheap, and acceptable-quality works, and his ability is acceptable, but not outstanding.

On this day, the male protagonist received a new job invitation to shoot a live broadcast short film program for a TV station.

The shooting process of the whole short film was shot to the end, there was no NG, no recording, and it was directly broadcast live to the audience.

As a director, the actor is naturally well aware of the difficulties and troubles of this model, and also knows that he may not be able to do the job with his own ability, and there is a high chance that he will screw up the project and even ruin his reputation .But for the sake of family and life, and to make ends meet, the hero must cherish every hard-won job invitation.

On the one hand, he was worried about his incompetence, and on the other hand, he was concerned about his family and livelihood. The hero struggled inside and hesitated whether to accept the job.

at the same time.

The daughter, who was influenced by her family environment since she was a child, followed her father's footsteps and became a filmmaker when she grew up, and inherited the stubborn and unyielding part of the hero's character.

But what is different from the male protagonist is that the male protagonist has been worn away by work and life, and has learned to compromise and muddle along, but his daughter is still at the age of passionate youth, and she is strict and responsible for her work and is extremely serious.

On this day, the daughter who was too serious at work had a conflict with the crew and was kicked out of the crew.And it just so happened that this day was also my daughter's birthday. When I got home, I found that the father who was supposed to prepare a birthday cake for her ignored her and didn't make any preparations at all.So, successive blows, disapproval at work, and neglect by her father on her birthday, the daughter ran out of the house in a fit of anger.

……

in the cinema.

Sitting in the back row, Lee Seung-woo couldn't help cheering up when the plot reached this point, and carefully observed the reaction of the audience in the front row.

Unlike the original movie of RB in the previous life, although the emotional line between father and daughter is also shown in the movie, it is not obvious or prominent, or in other words, there are no bright spots that make people remember and move.And the father's reason for taking over the job just to make his daughter happy is a bit too far-fetched.

So it is.

Lee Seung Woo adapted the plot.

……

on the screen.

After the daughter ran out of the house, the father found her with a paper cake with a candle on it.

"Min Sun, I'm sorry, happy birthday. ... Dad is very sorry. Dad shouldn't be busy with work and neglect your birthday. It is Dad who made a mistake and neglected my most precious daughter. But, Dad, I...was not born all my life Even Dad, Dad is also a first-time dad, and he will make mistakes and be careless sometimes, so, can my precious daughter be a little more considerate, and forgive Dad this time?"

Listening to the father's apologetic apology, the daughter also felt guilty, knowing that she had gone too far.

"Abba, it's my fault. I'm sorry. I shouldn't take it out on you. I'm just in a bad mood because of work. I have admired Abba since I was a child. I hope to become a director like Abba, and become a director who can make Abba feel happy. Proud daughter, but why the more serious and responsible I am, the more people blame me, is there something wrong with serious work?"

……

"嘻嘻~~咱咒~~"

When this scene appeared on the screen, a slight sobbing sound suddenly sounded from the front row, Li Chengyou's heart tightened, and then he relaxed.

He knew that the scene was stable, and his adaptation was recognized by the audience.

The reason why he adapted the movie and added this scene, in addition to highlighting the emotional line between father and daughter, made the father accept the job more fully in order to make his daughter happy and proud of himself. Audiences are more likely to empathize.

After all, such things are very common in real life.

The more serious and responsible they are at work, the more they are blamed for not being tactful and ignorant of the world. Many young people have had this experience and suffered such criticism.

……

On the screen, the plot continues to advance.

In order to become the father whom his daughter adores, and to make his daughter happy and meet his favorite idol, the male protagonist accepts the job of a TV station.

But as soon as the crew was set up, the leading actor started to have headaches.

Unreliable actors, demanding sound engineers, self-respecting male leads, and superficially cute but troublesome female leads... The filming of the short film has not yet started, and the crew is already full of ghosts and ghosts.

The leading actor had no choice but to make various compromises and appeasements, barely maintaining the operation of the entire crew.

But two hours before the filming started, something happened to the crew: the actor who played the director and the actor who played the make-up artist got into a car accident together because of an affair, and they couldn't come!

"Pfft hahaha-"

When the crew started to have frequent accidents and various situations continued, the actor broke out in an instant, and the movie officially reached the time of reversal.

"Hahahaha, so that's how it is, it's so fucking funny!"

Hearing bursts of laughter, Li Chengyou looked over and found that the one who was laughing was the boy in the front row who said he was bored and sleepy, and he woke up again at some point.

The plot continues.

The crew had already been in a mess, but the live broadcast had to continue, so the actor had to lead everyone around, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, defusing various crises skillfully, causing bursts of laughter.

In the last half hour of the movie, the laughter in the movie theater never stopped, and bursts of laughter sounded from the front row from time to time.

Li Chengyou sat in the back row, observing the reaction of the audience, his mentality was completely stable.

He knew that as long as he could get the audience's approval, even if his remake didn't reach the box office height of the previous Japanese version, there would be no problem in recovering the cost and making a profit.For a new director like him, as long as the movie can make a profit, it is already a very good starting point.

What's more, judging from the reaction of the audience, the performance of this movie should not be too bad.

Half an hour later, the movie came to an end, and the lights in the theater were turned on again.

Li Chengyou squinted his eyes slightly, just as he was adapting to the light, a burst of admiration came from the front row——

"I am really impressed by the director's imagination. This movie is really interesting. The front part is boring to death, but the back part is extremely classic. The most interesting thing is that without the boring part in the front part, there is no part in the back part. Classic. What a genius the director is."

Li Chengyou took a look and found that it was the same boy who said he was bored and sleepy.

Lee Seung Woo: "..."

Young man, you are so condescending, you really... have vision!

I have to say that there is nothing more refreshing than making the person who originally criticized reverse praise.

Li Chengyou stood up, exhaled lightly, raised his head slightly, and looked at the screen.

At this point the movie is over and the screen is blank.

But Li Chengyou knew that he had already written a heavy stroke on this blank space.

Success is just around the corner!
