I just want to make idol dramas

Chapter 43 Preparations for The Beginning
"The Beginning" is adapted from the novel of the same name by Mr. Gong. The original novel tends to focus on suspense and reasoning, while the series is more like a social school that focuses on investigating realistic issues.In the original work, except for the bus driver Wang Xingde and his wife who retaliated against the society because their dead daughter was subjected to cyber violence, the other characters on the bus have no relevant background extensions. This observes reality.

In Xiao Yu's opinion, such an adaptation is undoubtedly clever. The bus gathers all kinds of characters and is closer to the grassroots. If it is only based on the original work, it will be considered a good suspense drama at best, and it will be difficult to attract widespread attention. Expanding the passenger's background story, It is closer to life, convenient to show the world, and brings more topics. This is also the basis for "The Beginning" to become a hit.

Regarding the revision of the script, first of all, the background and character of the two protagonists are not rich enough, and the image is relatively simple. Xiao Yu joined Li Shiqing when the police were doing background checks and was commended for her bravery during the university. Teachers and classmates also commented on her willingness to help others. This can better explain Why did she try her best to break the cycle, and it is normal for the police to treat her well during the interrogation, and her behavior stems from the driver's help to her, so it is even more difficult for her to accept when she finds out that the driver is an accomplice.

Xiao Heyun was bullied by his classmates because he was introverted since he was a child, but he could only bear it silently and did not dare to tell his teachers and parents. Therefore, he designed the plot of using violence to control violence in the game. When he discovered the explosion on the bus, he instinctively thought Avoidance, under the influence and leadership of Li Shiqing, dare to face the fear and come out, with a certain growth potential.

A few years ago, Wang Mengmeng saw a classmate encounter a pervert on the bus and bravely called the police and became a witness. A few months later, the two met the released pervert on the bus. He harassed and threatened Wang Mengmeng. Wang Mengmeng complained to the bus driver. She asked for help but was met with cold reception. In desperation, she grabbed the driver's hand and pleaded. The driver let her out of the car for the safety of all passengers. The accident occurred. Although the classmate took the photo, he was afraid of retaliation and chose to hide it. The police suspected a pervert during the investigation , because no one has identified and there is no evidence, it can only be considered an accident.

Auntie Guo actually heard the conversation of a pervert on a bus in the toilet, but when she chased her out, the person who spoke had disappeared. Over the years, her daughter was robbed of the steering wheel and suffered cyberbullying. Her identity was often revealed to her. She called to ask if she would use her daughter’s case to educate students. She and her husband left home and changed their identities to pursue the truth but were not understood. Thinking of the suffering over the years, she decided to use the most extreme method to gain attention and re-investigate her daughter’s case.

The hero and heroine accidentally learned from the counselor that they had seen a post back then, and realized that there was something hidden about Wang Mengmeng's death, but the classmate didn't say anything during the police investigation. Several people found the classmate and got the photo from her after some persuasion.

This kind of adaptation made Wang Mengmeng's story even more tragic. The people I helped were unwilling to help me when they were in the most difficult times. After they died, they would be raped by others on the Internet, and their parents were also affected.And Aunt Guo's choice of this extreme method seems to be easier to understand. The hero and heroine not only saved the lives of a carload of people, but also saved two broken hearts.

As for the ending, Xiao Yu doesn't want to change it. In his opinion, all members HE is the best. If it is not improved, it will be really unfinished. However, no change does not mean that it will not change at all. He can still make some fine-tuning.

In the cycle in which Police Officer Zhang was killed, Xiao Heyun was weak and fell heavily on the ground in the fight with Aunt Guo. The people around him didn't know the plan, and after Officer Zhang appeared, he struggled to smash the car window, and finally As a result, there was not enough time for Police Officer Zhang to be killed, so that he would not stand stupidly during the whole process and destroy the tension of the plot.

In the last cycle, Wang Mengmeng's photo was originally used as a backup plan. When the plan was in progress, the driver accelerated and rushed to the bridge. Li Shiqing hung up the phone and was about to log into the cloud disk. Police officer Zhang saw an accident and arranged to force the bus to stop. During the collision, Li Shiqing The mobile phone flew out, everyone worked together to control Aunt Guo, Xiao Heyun also woke up at the most critical moment, and defended Li Shiqing when the driver crashed into the checkpoint, everyone was in a mess due to the impact, and the driver got the bomb Li Shiqing in the panic Picking up the mobile phone, she could only re-enter with trembling hands because she hadn't logged in successfully just now, and at the last moment she took out a photo to persuade the driver to stop, thus saving everyone.

Of course, such a change cannot satisfy everyone's wishes, but it can increase the sense of compactness and tension at the final climax, so that the audience will not be able to win the game by talking about it in the end.

The revision of the script will also bring about different characters. Li Shiqing needs to be more enthusiastic and kind, while Xiao Heyun needs to be more introverted and even selfish.The role of the former director was a big failure because of the script setting and the poor acting skills of the actors. For this, Huadun Film and Television Center gave Xiao Yu a professional opinion, telling him the real reaction of the police station in the event of an explosion, and revised Xiao Jiang’s As a tool human attribute to accelerate the male and female protagonists to enter the cycle, it greatly increases the authenticity.

In addition, Xiao Yu thought that in the original drama, the relationship between the male and female protagonists heated up too quickly, so they cut off the kissing scene and only kept the hug.

Tianhai Films has seen the social discussions that this drama can trigger and attaches great importance to it. After all, a drama involves various social issues such as cyber violence, survival of the bottom class, live broadcast industry, family education, and the game industry. Melted in one furnace, it has become a hodgepodge of real life, and any one is a hot topic.Coupled with the intense excitement of the reasoning part, the suspense design is exciting, and a big success is almost inevitable.

For this reason, Tianhai specially sent Tian Zhiyuan and Liu Tong to play Zhang Cheng and Tao Yinghong.Tian Zhiyuan was in
In "Jiangshan Sheji", he played an important official who has been in the political arena for 30 years and won the Golden Lily Award for Best Actor. Liu Tong also played the role of a housewife who has suffered continuous blows in life but lives optimistically in "Fire Burning Heart" and won the Ascension Award. The best actresses are the veritable queens of Shidishi. Xiao Yu has specially watched their performances, and he can confirm them at a glance.

As for the director, Tianhai Films persuaded Zheng Jigang to direct it himself. Zheng Jigang was famous for his suspense and reasoning dramas in his early years. In recent years, he has also performed very well in movies. He is not a director under Tianhai but has his own studio. Tianhai Apart from the fact that the script itself is good, he should have paid a lot of money to invite him.

Before the supporting role, Zheng Lan was promised to let her play the policewoman, Lu Di gave it to Gu Wei, Wang Mengmeng was played by Xin Waner, and Chen Xuesi and Jin Xing recently went to Yunhai to film, all the actors of the Starlight Project went out to film, and the few people in the car The role was handed over to Aunt Hua again.

Xiao Yu also arranged for the newly hired employees to study in various production crews. He is not bad at scripts, and he has enough experience to go out and work on his own as soon as possible.
