The superstar is here

Chapter 600 Companionship is the Best Confession
"Sister Ya, have you heard of this folklore?" Seeing that Zhao Ya's reaction was a bit abnormal, Chen Ziang asked in surprise.

Calling "Sister Zhao" is a bit outdated, so Chen Ziang changed Zhao Ya's name to "Sister Ya".

"I've heard of it, Bai Suzhen." Zhao Ya smiled and quickly returned to normal.

Chen Ziang said with a smile: "That's really fate. Although some versions of "The Legend of the White Snake" say that Bai Suzhen came from Mount Qingcheng, many people here have never heard of the folklore "The Legend of the White Snake."

Zhao Ya nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, I only know about it because of my parents when I was young. They often scare me and say that if I don't obey, they will let the white snake take me away."

Chen Ziang said seriously: "This folk tale is about to be put on the screen."

Zhao Ya was taken aback.

Folk operas have gradually disappeared on the stage of history, and the story of The Legend of the White Snake has become less and less known.

A long time ago, "Legend of the White Snake" was not uncommon on the opera stage, but with the decline of opera, not only "Legend of the White Snake" was gradually forgotten by people, but also many folk tales were buried in dust and disappeared in history.

"Who wants to put it on the screen?" Zhao Ya looked at Chen Ziang eagerly.

Chen Ziang saw expectation and longing in her eyes.

She probably doesn't want this folk tale that grew up with her to be forgotten by the world.

When they were young, people didn't know what they got, but when they grew up, they found that they lost more and more.

"Me!" Chen Ziang replied.

Seeing Zhao Ya's eyes, the tight string in his heart loosened.

It turned out that she knew the folklore and expected it to be widely known.

Then, it might not be too difficult to invite her to play the role.

"You?" Zhao Ya was a little surprised, she didn't know that Chen Zi'ang had Bo Yu Film and Television, and had already finished filming "Dragon Ba Bu".

Chen Ziang smiled and said, "Why, it doesn't look like it?"

Zhao Ya thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's quite similar. People in the circle and the Internet say that you like to make troubles. I didn't expect that you not only entered the film and television industry so quickly as an actor, but also invested in film and television works."

"How about it, are you interested in the role of White Snake?" Chen Ziang asked.

Zhao Ya hesitated.

Chen Ziang became a little worried, feeling something wrong with himself?
The look in Zhao Ya's eyes just now was like a child seeing a toy.

He took out all his toys to seduce him, but Zhao Ya actually had a tendency to shrink back.

"Uh, didn't you say that the company didn't find notices for you? What difficulties do you have?" Chen Ziang asked.

Zhao Ya pondered for a moment and asked, "Can I read the script first?"

After inquiring, Chen Ziang found out that Zhao Ya was more concerned about the definition of Bai Suzhen's role in "Legend of the White Snake".

In various folk versions of "The Legend of the White Snake", the image of Bai Suzhen is different, and there are even two extremes.

These two extremes, one is the snake demon who harmed Xu Xian, and the other is the goblin who married Xu Xian in "Legend of the New White Snake".

Zhao Ya said that the White Snake in her parents' eyes was a good person, and would only come down from the mountain to pick up disobedient children.

"Don't worry, in my "Legend of the White Snake", Bai Suzhen is a good person." Chen Ziang reassured Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya asked curiously: "Your "Legend of the White Snake"? Did you write the script?"

"As long as the script is good, it doesn't matter who writes it." Chen Ziang smiled, and promised to show Zhao Ya the script after dinner.

Zhao Ya was originally a little worried about Chen Ziang's writing the script, but during the meal and chat, she was a little shocked when she learned that the script of "Swordsman" was written by Chen Ziang.

Although the screenwriter's status in the crew is relatively low, its importance is self-evident.

Everyone knows that stories and scripts are the basis, just as everyone knows that rice, wheat and vegetables are grown by farmers, and the importance of farmers goes without saying.

But how many people put farmers in their eyes?
How many well-dressed people in high-rise buildings do not think that they are superior to those peasants?
Occupations such as farmers and sanitation workers represent swearing and tiring work, and those who do these jobs are considered useless to do it.

But people do not see these people, such as sanitation workers, no matter in the cold winter months or in the dog days, they guard our clean streets on the street. When they are tired and sleepy, they can only hide in the shade of trees to rest, drowsy...

"Has the crew of "Legend of the White Snake" started preparations?" Zhao Ya asked.

"That's right, the most important candidate for the role of White Lady is missing." Chen Ziang laughed.

In the previous life, the TV series that made Lin'an and West Lake a sacred place for Chinese people around the world was "Legend of the New White Snake".

The water of the West Lake, my tears...

There are many versions of the story of the White Snake in the folklore of this life, but Chen Ziang did not dare to copy all of them from his previous life, and had collected them day and night.

Eventually, he knocked down his own version.

In general, it is a fusion of the Taiwan version and the CCTV version.

In terms of the degree of moving, the Central version of White Snake is not inferior to the Taiwan version of White Snake.Especially in the ending part, the appeal even surpassed the Taiwanese version.

The CCTV version of The Legend of the White Snake is the most profound and perfect interpretation of the poignant love between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen.

Compared with the new white, you will actually find many problems.Xinbai's overall performance in the early stage is very brilliant, but the finale is very exciting: White Snake and Xu Xian respect each other like guests, Fa Hai becomes a fairy, and Xu Xian's son marries Li Bilian.

The most distressing thing is that in the end of Xinbai, the human love between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen no longer exists, leaving only the helplessness of becoming a fairy queen.

Such an ending makes the story lose the love value of the myth itself, and deliberately caters to the so-called happy ending, which seriously weakens the original interpretation of love in the legend of the White Snake.

People see the perfect reunion, but their hearts are actually empty, powerless and even helpless.

Is this the perfect ending?
The Taiwanese version of The Legend of the White Snake was originally planned to end only when Bai Suzhen entered the Leifeng Pagoda, but for the sake of market demand and business, Xu Shilin's story was forced to be continued. Later, because the previous part of the screenwriter did not agree to add more content, the producer The screenwriter was changed.

Therefore, the style of the two parts before and after the Taiwanese version of The Legend of the White Snake, such as the libretto, is completely different.There were also self-contradictions before and after, for example, when the screenwriter conceived of the White Snake Out of the Pagoda in the early stage as the No.

Chen Ziang can't do this, he can't completely copy the Taiwanese version of The Legend of the White Snake.

In the CCTV version of The Legend of the White Snake, let alone the first part of the plot, only the ending, which perfectly interprets the tragicomedy love.

This kind of love is not desperate, but gives the power to heal people's hearts.

In the central version of the Legend of the White Snake, the final ending is that 700 years later, the Leifeng Pagoda collapsed, which shows that Xu Bai's love or Bai Suzhen herself has been recognized.

Their love was suppressed, what happened in the end, the Leifeng Pagoda was used to pour down, and the code word was the final victory of love.

In the previous life, some people discussed the central version of the Legend of the White Snake, saying that Xu Xian was dead, but regardless of Xu Xian's ending, Xu Bai and Bai Suzhen, especially Bai Suzhen, had already seen through the eight tears of life, old age, sickness, death, love, hatred and parting in the world, and fully understood Xu Xian's infatuation.

Companionship is the best confession.
