China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 48 Love has an afterlife adapted
Zhang Nanyi took the script and asked in surprise: "Have you accepted my adaptation?"

Yu Feihong was actually very stubborn about the script of Love Has an Afterlife. Zhang Nanyi had discussed it with her many times before, but the eldest sister often refused to give in.

Zhang Nanyi himself was very embarrassed because when he was revising the script, he was also a stubborn person with a strong desire to express himself. In the end, he changed the script of "Love Has an Afterlife" beyond recognition, which was very different from Yu Feihong's original story.

He didn't discuss it with Yu Feihong anymore. He just sent her the outline of the script he wrote as a reference for her, and then ignored it.

Zhang Nanyi had actually given up on the movie Love Is Afterlife, because Yu Feihong had said before that if two people didn't agree on the idea of ​​changing the script, they would not choose to cooperate.

Yu Feihong was stubborn. He was even more stubborn than Yu Feihong. He changed the script into a brand new story. Zhang Nanyi felt that the eldest sister would not accept it.

Unexpectedly, the eldest sister suddenly came to the crew again and changed the script according to his outline.

Turning around.

Yu Feihong said seriously: "Although we had a big argument before, I still admire your talent.

After you sent me the outline of the script, I read it over and over again and compared it with my original script.

I have to admit that the script you wrote is very interesting. "

Yu Feihong smiled gently, brushed her messy hair, and said slowly: "Put aside my previous stubbornness, put aside my prejudices, and read the synopsis of your script carefully.

The more I read, the more addicted I became. Although it is a little different from what I originally wanted to express, your script actually contains the love I want to express, but it is more real and complex. "

Yu Feihong's love has an afterlife, and the story is actually very cliché.

The story is divided into two lives. In the first life, the male protagonist A Ming came from a bandit family. When he was very young, his parents and family were killed by another gang of bandits.The hero's brother grew up to take revenge and killed the bandits' entire family, leaving only one little boy behind. He couldn't bear to kill him and let him go.

The little boy who was let go was the brother of the heroine Ajiu. He wanted revenge when he grew up, so he sent the heroine Ajiu to deliberately get close to the simple male protagonist A Ming.

A Ming and A Ming met and fell in love in this environment, and tortured each other. In the end, A Ming succeeded in avenging his brother, and both A Ming and A Ming died under the ginkgo tree.

Before she died, Ah Jiu made a promise to see him again in the next life. She thought that the male protagonist would not die, so she turned around and was reincarnated.

Unexpectedly, the male protagonist A Ming also died. He was worried that the female protagonist could not find him, so he waited for her under the ginkgo tree and missed the opportunity to be reincarnated.

It was not until 50 years later that Xiaoyu, the reincarnation of Ah Jiu, appeared. This is the story of the second life.

A Ming waited for Ah Jiu, but Ah Jiu had no memory of her previous life. Her name was Xiaoyu in this life, and she already had a husband and lived a happy life.

The male protagonist just stayed under the ginkgo tree every day, watching the female protagonist and her husband love each other.

Is it exciting?

Literary youths love to play this trick.

The essence of this plot is a bloody plot of plotting revenge but falling in love with the enemy's brother, but Feihong's directorial talent is really good, and the story she tells is a flashback.

At the beginning of the movie, the heroine Ayu 50 years later is shown lovingly with her husband.

It is narrated from the perspective of the heroine Ayu 50 years later. She meets a monk (male protagonist) who behaves strangely in the yard. She invites the monk to drink tea, and the monk tells her a story.

As the monk narrated, the story of the male and female protagonist's previous life slowly unfolded in front of the audience. Finally, when the female protagonist looked in the mirror, her previous life appearance appeared in the mirror. She completely recalled the experience of her previous life, and then turned around to find the monk, but the monk... Already out of his mind.

People who like this story can still feel the explosion of emotions.

At least Zhang Nanyi's literary girlfriend in his previous life burst into tears when watching this movie.

However, Zhang Nanyi felt that there were some problems with the script, and the poor box office performance was also related to the plot.The first problem is that the story is too bloody and cliché. Many moviegoers don’t want to watch it anymore once they see this clichéd story.

The second is that there are also problems with the character design of the characters in the play.For example, the male protagonist A Ming's brother, as a ruthless bandit leader, is soft-hearted and lets his enemy's son go. This plot is too fake and makes people laugh.The script can find other reasons to let the enemy's son live.

In addition to the brother, the male protagonist A Ming also has problems with his character.

His motive for telling the story to the heroine has no logic. According to Yu Feihong's script, the hero has been waiting for 50 years to see the heroine living happily with her husband in this life, and understands that love is giving and tolerance. As long as the heroine If he is happy, the hero will be satisfied.

Then the male protagonist shouldn't show up and tell the female protagonist the story of his past life. Otherwise, he will awaken the female protagonist's memory of her previous life, but he will be in a state of confusion. Wouldn't the female protagonist's happiness in this life be completely ruined?
There was a problem with the logic of this story from the beginning. Zhang Nanyi felt that it had to be changed, so he had a quarrel with Yu Feihong.

Zhang Nanyi said: “Actually, the most important thing for a literary film is to have a theme to express.

Your original script elevated love too high, causing everything else to become fake. Without a basis in reality, the elevated love also seemed hollow.

The heroine's family was killed by the bandits of the hero's family. This was a blood feud. She fell in love with the hero even though she knew the hatred. This elevated the love, but it was harmful to the heroine's character.

The male protagonist was raised by his older brother, who responded to his requests and took good care of him. Such a close person was killed by the female protagonist's revenge.

The male protagonist doesn't seem to have any hatred for the female protagonist, and he still stupidly waits for her under the ginkgo tree for 50 years. You say this is love, but I say Qiong Yao will praise this plot after watching it! "

A common problem with many romance films is that they like to put love above everything else.

Yu Feihong hit Zhang Nan angrily and said with a smile: "Is my script that bad? You said it was worthless!"

The eldest sister has really figured it out and can accept Zhang Nanyi's complaints.

When Zhang Nan saw that Yu Feihong had really changed, he explained a little more: "Actually, I understand you very well. What you want to shoot is a touching love story.

That’s why I changed the script.

Love stories should be rooted in real life. Only by absorbing nutrients from the complexity of reality can love stories be moving. "

Yu Feihong nodded: "You are right. After reading your script, I feel that your love story is more powerful than mine. Maybe this is the truth. Love is always complicated.

That’s why I spent more than ten days perfecting the script, and even went to the Tianlong Babu crew to find you. "

The story adapted by Zhang Nanyi is not so bloody, but more complicated.

At the beginning of the script, Xiaoyu also meets a monk, who tells her a story.

The first story takes place in 1939. A Ming is the son of a landlord, and Ah Jiu is a progressive young woman who went to a girls' school. They were born on the same day in the same year, the same month, and fell in love at first sight after meeting.

They knew that there was a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in the village. Legend has it that as long as lovers get the blessing of the ginkgo tree, they can be together forever, so they found the ginkgo tree and concluded a vow of love under the ginkgo tree.

The two were in love for a while, but soon had conflicts.

A Ming has traditional ideas and is extremely possessive of Ah Jiu, and places great restrictions on Ah Jiu's clothing and interpersonal interactions.

As a result, the two had a fierce conflict. Ah Jiu felt that she was being restrained and rebelliously went to a nightclub with a group of classmates to have fun. However, she encountered harassment from several gangsters and the classmates all ran away.

When Ah Jiu was desperate, A Ming rushed to the nightclub and fought with some gangsters to protect Ah Jiu. A Ming was outnumbered and was beaten to death. Ah Jiu also committed suicide by hitting the wall.

After listening to the story, Ayu said that possessiveness in love is too terrible and she would not accept such love. The monk told her another story.
