I turned out to be top-notch!

Chapter 161 New Script

Chu Xiaoxiao publicly confessed to Zhou Dingran downstairs in the boys' dormitory, causing a sensation on the entire Nortel campus that night.

In the school forum, users’ posting speed has increased by 200% compared to before!

"It's a hammer, it's a hammer. Goddess Chu really has thoughts about Zhou Dingran. She openly confessed her love to Zhou Dingran this afternoon downstairs in the dormitory. There is a video to prove it!"

"I cried to death, how come the goddess has become so vulgar!"

"Is this star something we must pursue?"

"Don't worry, Zhou Dingran is a serious artist. He is signed with a management company, and the company will not let him fall in love!"

"Chu Xiaoxiao didn't go back to update and went here to pick up men? Sisters, don't be in love!"

"I just watched the live video. To be honest, Chu Xiaoxiao's figure is really top-notch. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is the best in Nortel. Plus, with that foxy face, my mom, I want to save this video and watch it. A hundred times!”

"Zhou Dingran didn't react at all? Is he still a man?"

"I envy Zhou Dingran's first day."

The campus was full of classmates talking about this matter, and even the teachers mentioned it to each other. Gossip is human nature, and soon the matter reached Chen Daozhou's ears.

Early the next morning, Chen Daozhou called Zhou Dingran and joked about the matter: "I know that Chu Xiaoxiao is very talented in literature, but her mind is not on the right path. With her writing style, if she writes some novels that are popular with the mainstream, it will definitely be a big deal." popular……"

Zhou Dingran knew as soon as he heard that the teacher was pointing at him, he coughed dryly and said: "What, teacher, her mind is not on the right path, and there is nothing I can do about it. She and I are just ordinary friends now."

"Don't panic, college students. It's never too early or too late to fall in love. It's just right. Who hasn't had a few relationships when they were young? You will mainly be an actor in the future. In terms of your acting skills, even if you have a girlfriend, My friend, even if you marry a wife and have children, you can still make a living in this profession."

As Chen Daozhou spoke, his voice changed: "Cha Duo replied to me."

Zhou Dingran asked: "What did she say?"

Chen Daozhou smiled and said: "I compliment you on your well-written script and agreed to play the role of Chen Nian, but she is worried that she will not be able to play the role of a high school student. After all, she is already 24 and [-] years old."

Zhou Dingran said with a smile: "Cha Duo looks very childish. If she puts on a school uniform, she will definitely be a high school student. Moreover, she is the Golden Rooster actress and has strong acting skills. She has no problem playing a high school student."

"Yes, that's what I told her too."

Chen Daozhou said meaningfully: "She is looking forward to starring opposite you. Moreover, you are the screenwriter of this drama and have a deeper understanding of the plot than anyone else. You also starred in the male lead of this drama. Now many people are interested in you." His acting skills express his expectations."

Zhou Dingran was also aroused in his heart: "It's absolutely no problem. Believe me, no one is more suitable to play Xiaobei than me."

Chen Daozhou smiled and said: "Among my peers, no one who is more popular than you is willing to play Xiaobei. Not only are those who are willing to play Xiaobei not as popular as you, they are not as good at acting as you. You are indeed the most suitable candidate."

In "Young You", the male protagonist Xiao Bei also had to shave off his facial hair.

Among the popular idol stars nowadays, no one is willing to shave off their hair for a drama. Of course, the most important thing is that his acting skills are far behind Zhou Dingran.

Judging from Chen Daozhou's vision, Zhou Dingran's acting skills are at least at the level of a movie star. If he performs well, he can definitely win the Best Actor Award.

However, this is the first time Zhou Dingran has played a leading role. Even if he wins an award, he will most likely win the Best Newcomer Award.

As for the Best Actor Award at mainstream film festivals, we need to hone at least a few films and select some good scripts before we have a chance.

"The crew of "Sword of Sword" has been established, and the leading actors have been assembled in the past two days. The press conference will be held in a week, and the cast will start in ten days. Please arrange your time properly."

Chen Daozhou paused and then said: "I watched your live broadcast video of selling goods. I heard that you seem to want to make this your main business?"

Zhou Dingran shook his head and said: "Before, I wanted to quickly accumulate the first pot of gold through live streaming, but now, teacher, you can directly attract investment, so there is no need for me to live stream the goods, but I signed the contract, two days a week Each live broadcast must be four hours long. The last live broadcast was four days ago. I will have a live broadcast tonight to bring goods..."

Chen Daozhou said: "It's not that I won't let you do this. You can do it as a side job. After all, your live broadcast is quite popular. I heard that the last live broadcast was in the top three of Douyin? This is good. Investors are I like artists like you who have their own popularity, but you have to consider your schedule. Once you join the group, you may not be able to take care of it all, so you have to be mentally prepared."

"I understand." Zhou Dingran nodded.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Dingran started calling the live broadcast assistant Jiang Xiaohong, informing the other party that he would arrive at the studio before [-] p.m., and then started tinkering with the new script.

The inspiration for the new script came out of nowhere, stemming from the new ability he accidentally acquired by opening a blind box in the studio four days ago, that is, master-level language expression ability.

At that time, he had just acquired this ability and didn't know how to use it flexibly.

But after these few days of exploration, he found that his language organization ability when communicating with others seemed to be much stronger than before.

But that's obviously not what concerns him the most.

What concerned him most was that this ability seemed to allow him to have a special connection and induction with animals.

For example, the cow cat he met in the studio last time, he made the cat flee the scene quickly with just a few words.

Zhou Dingran was surprised at that time.

In order to verify this conjecture in the past few days, he has contacted some cats and dogs on different occasions. As a result, he found that even when faced with a cat or dog that had never been masked, the instructions he gave casually would be heard. Get an accurate response from the other person.

Of course, some cats are naturally aloof.

For example, a civet cat I met outside the campus yesterday morning didn't listen to Zhou Dingran's instructions at all, and even stretched out to urinate on Zhou Dingran.

In most cases, when Zhou Dingran encounters a dog, whether it is a Shiba Inu, a Husky, a Pomeranian, a Samoyed, etc., as long as Zhou Dingran speaks, he can attract the attention of these dogs, and there is more than 80% chance of being able to Instructs these dogs to perform various actions according to his instructions.

This surprised Zhou Dingran.

"I didn't expect that a master's language expression ability can not only express human language..."

"I wonder if I can communicate with plants?"

After this idea came to mind, Zhou Dingran conducted an experiment and communicated with the flowers and plants on the roadside. Unfortunately, it failed miserably and was thought to be insane by a passing sanitation worker.

But no matter what, being able to communicate with animals is already a very good ability.

Even simple communication and induction are enough for Zhou Dingran to do a lot of things.

The script he is currently writing is also inspired by this ability, namely "The Story of Hachiko, the Loyal Dog."

The script tells the legendary story of a university professor who encountered a poor Akita puppy at a station in a small town and decided to adopt him and named him "Hachiko".
This script comes from Neon and is adapted from a true story. It left a deep impression on Zhou Dingran in his previous life. Even if he only watched the clips through online videos, he could not help but get wet in his eyes many times.

Later, the film was remade many times and even localized, but the core content remains the same.Zhou Dingran is definitely not able to play the male protagonist in "The Story of Hachiko" at his current age, so this script is not written for himself, but reciprocates and is given to his teacher Chen Daozhou.

Chen Daozhou gave him great help during this period. Not only did he help him stand up, he was also willing to help him find investment.

The most important thing is that he is willing to participate in a supporting role in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" just to support his students and gain popularity.

This left Zhou Dingran with nothing to repay. He was not an ungrateful person, and he often even repaid his kindness with drops of water.

Therefore, after thinking of "Hachi the Loyal Dog", I immediately thought of Chen Daozhou.

Chen Daozhou is also a university professor now, and his age is very consistent with the leading actor. He is perfect to play the leading male role in "Hachi".

He believed that the teacher would like the script, and he also knew that the teacher had been waiting for a suitable script, so he took the time to write "Hachiko".

Although Zhou Dingran fully knew the plot of the movie and even knew many details of the movie, it was not easy to write the complete script.

So after writing the script and polishing it for two days, I threw it directly to the system and let the system complete the entire script.

And he only needs to spend a certain amount of favorability points to buy the complete script.

[It has been detected that the script is 57% complete. Do you want to add more?Supplementary scripts will deduct 430 million favorability points from you. 】

"How much? 57%"

Zhou Dingran was so confused that he worked on it for two days, almost trying to write out all the original plots he could think of. Unexpectedly, he only completed 57%.

He looked at the 430 million favorability points and hesitated.

This is much more expensive than redeeming a song.

But it's not that I'm reluctant, but I'm considering whether I should use the admiration and adoration points to deduct it.

After all, his current admiration value has exceeded 600 million, and his admiration value is over 80.

If he uses adoration or adoration points to deduct it, he only needs to deduct 43 adoration points or 4.3 adoration points.

"Forget it, it is difficult to obtain the love and adoration points. They may be of great use in the future, so keep them for now."

After thinking about this, Zhou Dingran decided to continue spending the favor points.

[430 million favorability points have been successfully deducted, and the script "The Story of Hachiko, the Loyal Dog" will be supplemented for you soon. Please wait...]

["The Story of the Loyal Dog Hachiko" has been supplemented. 】

In just a few seconds, "The Story of Hachiko the Faithful Dog" was completed.

Zhou Dingran imported it into his mobile phone and looked through it, and found that the scripts supplemented by the system were actually the American version.

And the names of the protagonists and supporting characters that he randomly wrote down because he couldn't remember them all became the names in the American version of "Hachi," namely Parker, Andy, etc.

"No, it has to be changed. The scenes and names have to be localized."

Zhou Dingran frowned and began to reform the script.

But after a full hour or two of editing, I still felt like I had no idea where to start. The nearly [-]-word script had only been changed by a hundred or two hundred words.

"Are my literary skills so weak?"

Zhou Dingran was a little embarrassed. Fortunately, he was still a well-known great writer on Qidian Chinese website. "I carry an umbrella but not a knife on a rainy night."

If this is going to spread, why don't we dig a hole in the ground?
With a flash of thought, he summoned the system.

Daji: "Master, please come in and give instructions to Daji."

Zhou Dingran: "Help me redeem my writing ability."

Daji: "Okay, Master, writing abilities are divided into elite level, master level and perfect level. The exchange price is as follows..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a virtual panel appeared in front of him, marking the exchange prices for different stages of writing ability.

Like the elite composition ability, the elite writing ability is also worth 100 million favorability points. By analogy, the master level and perfect level require 1000 million favorability points and [-] million favorability points respectively.

Zhou Dingran's various vests and deities have gained countless favorability points in recent times, but as of now, they have only just exceeded 5000 million favorability points, and they can only exchange for one master-level writing ability.

"If you earn goodwill points, you'll spend them on them. We'll talk about the rest later!"

Thinking of this, Zhou Dingran exchanged for his master-level writing ability and master-level composition ability in one go.

[1900 million favorability points successfully deducted! 】

[Congratulations, you have exchanged your writing ability (master level) and composition ability (master level)! 】

Although these two abilities are necessary skills, Zhou Dingran watched nearly 2000 million favorability points being deducted from his account. He felt extremely lost for a moment, and even felt a sense of tension oppressing his heart.

You know, he is now in a stage where his favorability value is rising crazily.

But he guessed that the increase in favorability is not endless, and may eventually run out.

For example, as a fat-headed fish, when he first appeared on "The King of Masked Singer", he gained the most favorability, admiration and admiration points. The increase was astonishing, and he could gain tens of millions of favorability points overnight.

But after participating in "The Masked Singer" for the second time, his favorability and other attributes have obviously dropped a lot.

Although at that time, the release of "Xiaochou" became popular all over the country, the favorability points brought to him were far less than the speed when he first participated in "The Masked Singer", and he only gained 700 million favorability points.

Another example is the Douyin videos he uploaded. In the early stage, the favorability value of each video was very high, but in the end, the increase rate of the favorability value was decreasing, and the decrease has been very obvious in the recent period, because he has been There are no new videos posted.

All of this makes Zhou Dingran feel that the increase in his favorability will be in a crazy decline process sooner or later, such as when he announces his relationship or is attacked by some dirty information.

Therefore, even though the favorability value is increasing very fast now, Zhou Dingran is also careful when spending it. In addition to the necessary abilities that must be redeemed, some abilities that are not strictly needed, even if the system introduction is lavish, he has no urge to redeem it.
