Back to 80: My literary life.

Chapter 611, as far as the script is concerned, is a love triangle that couldn’t be more cliché.

"Director Liu, when does Director Wang want it?" Fang Minghua asked.

"He didn't say, but as soon as possible."

"Okay, I'll give it to you in two days. I'll go home after you finish writing it. I've had enough of Yinchuan." Fang Minghua replied.

Two days? !
Liu Zhenwei was a little bit unconvinced and was about to question it when he suddenly remembered that it only took people one day to write "A Chinese Odyssey"!
The words immediately turned into: "Well, Mr. Fang, Ms. Song, I won't disturb you to rest. Goodbye!"

"goodbye!"

After seeing Liu Zhenwei off, Fang Minghua said to Song Tangtang, "Wife, you take a rest first. I'll use your computer."

"You want to write now?"

"Yes, I'll finish writing sooner and go back to see the kids."

Oops
You were not in a hurry when you were following Zhang Xianliang around, but you are in a hurry now?

However, Song Tangtang still stood up, said "I'm going to take a shower" and went into the bathroom.

Fang Minghua filled his teacup with water, sat at the desk, opened his laptop and called up WPS.

Historically, "Ashes of Time" has been called an alternative peak of Chinese martial arts films. The film's scattered characters and stories are intertwined with each other, and the beautiful photography shows a fictional imaginary world.

Putting aside the director Wang Sunglasses and the photography level, just from the literary point of view of the script, it is a complete stream of consciousness.

A large number of characters' psychological activities, disordered time and space order, and of course those lines that are just the right amount of pretentious.

At first, I felt confused by Fang Minghua's film, but after watching it several times and reading the script and online reviews, I finally understood:
Holy shit! That’s what it is.

In fact, judging from the script alone, it is a love triangle that couldn't be more cliché.

The story of the script is divided into eight parts, but the content of the released movie is not presented to the audience in chronological order. Wong Kar-wai deliberately disrupted the timeline to confuse the audience.

It's actually pretty simple once you get your head around it.

OK, let’s get started!
Fang Minghua typed a line of words on the computer screen:

Many years later, I was nicknamed the West Poison."

I couldn't help but complain:
“Fuck! The beginning pays tribute to Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude.”

"It's a film about a novel written by Jin Yong, but it pays tribute to Gu Yong."

The next day, Fang Minghua did not go out. He called Zhang Xianliang and said that he was commissioned by a friend to write a script for a director in Hong Kong.

For two consecutive days, Fang Minghua stayed in the room and did not go out. He even had the waiter deliver meals to the room.

If you’re going to play, just have fun.

Just write it and it will be done in a few strokes.

Of course it was impossible to remember the entire script, so he just memorized the general idea. However, Fang Minghua still wrote down those pretentious lines.

Buddhist scriptures say
The flag is not moving and the wind is not blowing, it is the human heart that is moving
Although I liked her very much, I never told her.

Because I know that what you can't get is always the best
Maybe because I haven’t seen peach blossoms for a long time, the next spring,
I went to that person's hometown.
There are no peach blossoms there.
Peach Blossom is just a woman's name.

It took two days to complete. The first reader was of course his wife Song Tangtang.

Song Tangtang admires her husband very much.

Sometimes he seems to be lazy and playful, but when he actually writes something, he is very serious and hardworking, and he works day and night.

Just look at it, a script was completed in two days.

"Tangtang, take your time and look at it. I'm going to go out for some fresh air." After saying that, Fang Minghua walked out of the room, left the hotel and wandered around the street.

Fang Minghua wandered around the street and bought some snacks such as Hui maltose and wolfberry cake from a grocery store and brought them back for her two children.

An hour later, Fang Minghua returned to his hotel room.

Seeing Fang Minghua come in, Song Tangtang looked at him blankly.

"What's wrong?" Fang Minghua put down the plastic bag and asked.

"Minghua, your script is indeed a modification of Mr. Jin's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but apart from the more literary lines, the plot is relatively ordinary." Song Tangtang asked.

"Really? Why is it so ordinary?" Fang Minghua walked over.

"Look." Song Tangtang pointed at the computer screen and began to analyze.

"The content of your script is actually divided into eight sections. 1. On White Camel Mountain, the woman Ouyang Feng loves married his brother out of spite. After learning about this, Ouyang Feng wanted to elope with his sister-in-law, but was rejected. Ouyang Feng left White Camel Mountain sadly and came to the desert to start a business, mainly engaged in the murder business."

"2. The eldest sister-in-law couldn't forget Ouyang Feng, so she went to live by the sea. Later, Huang Yaoshi became the eldest sister-in-law's scabby dog. He found that the eldest sister-in-law still loved Ouyang Feng. So he would go to see Ouyang Feng every year during the Spring Equinox."

"And he knew that the eldest sister-in-law wanted to know about Ouyang Feng very much, and he was very jealous of Ouyang Feng. Huang Yaoshi couldn't get the eldest sister-in-law, so he began to fall in love with someone else, and fell in love with Taohua, the wife of his good friend the blind warrior. When the blind warrior found out, he was heartbroken and ran away."

"3. Huang Yaoshi is a typical playboy. He met Murong Yan, who was dressed as a man, in Gusu City. He played with her feelings, causing Murong to split her personality. Murong was filled with hatred and paid Ouyang Feng to kill someone. One night, Ouyang Feng and Murong Yan were infatuated and regarded each other as their lovers."

Song Tangtang looked at Fang Minghua when he said this. "Minghua, do you think my analysis is correct?"

"Yes, continue." Fang Minghua made himself a cup of tea and said with a smile.

"Okay, 5. In the blink of an eye, it's Jingzhe. When the script begins, Huang Yaoshi brings the Drunken Life, Dream of Death wine to find Ouyang Feng. He drinks it, but Ouyang Feng doesn't. After that, Huang Yaoshi goes to his good friend Blind Swordsman's hometown to see the peach blossoms.

Later, Huang Yaoshi met the blind swordsman and Murong Yan, and was slashed by Murong Yan. "

"Then, at the beginning of summer, an orphan girl came to Ouyang Feng to seek revenge for her murdered brother. She only had a basket of eggs and a donkey, but Ouyang Feng rejected her.

""6. On the other hand, the blind warrior came to Ouyang Feng to find a job. In order to collect money to go back to his hometown to see the peach blossoms, he was killed in an operation. "

"7. When the time came to Bailu, Ouyang Feng welcomed a new partner, Hong Qi. For an egg, Hong Qi helped the orphan girl kill her enemy and lost a finger.

After Hong Qi recovered, he took his wife to travel the world, and many years later he became the Nine-Fingered Divine Beggar. Ouyang Feng envied Hong Qi for being able to travel the world with his beloved.

'8, the next year, at the beginning of spring, Ouyang Feng went to the blind warrior's hometown and found Taohua was a woman. Taohua knew that her husband, the blind warrior, had passed away and cried bitterly. Seeing this scene, Ouyang Feng finally understood why Huang Yaoshi went to visit him every year during the Spring Equinox.

"9, which is the last part, Jingzhe arrives, Ouyang Feng returns to the desert inn, but cannot wait for Huang Yaoshi. One day, he receives a letter from Baituo Mountain, and learns that his sister-in-law has passed away. He burns down the inn and returns to Baituo Mountain. The story ends."

"Tangtang, you said it very well." Fang Minghua said with a smile.

"The story of your script involves murder, revenge, and a love triangle. If it were given to another director, he would probably be very happy and the movie would be a big hit at the box office, but do you think Wong Kar-wai would be interested in it?!"
