Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 17: Online Literature Leads the Industry for Ten Years
ps: This chapter involves a lot of complaints, and the original protagonist actor has been changed to Zhu Yilong, so please rest assured.

Cheng Long left first.

There are still some things he needs to prepare for the "Myth" crew.

Although the original version of "Myth" has been completely stillborn, it does not mean that it can be forgotten. There are still many things that need to be dealt with, such as personnel, funds, contracts, etc.

In addition, he is also one of the producers of the adapted version of "The Myth".

Since something went wrong with the original version, it would be reasonable for him to oversee the production of the new version until it is officially aired.

It can also be considered as an explanation for the padding.

After Cheng Long left, Da Tiantian began to act unrestrained: "Zhou Mo, what's wrong with your brain? This script is too well written."

Zhou Mo thought that this was a good result from an online novel with 10,000 subscriptions ten years later, which had been verified by a group of old bookworms at Qidian.

There has always been a joke among the general public that "online literature is ten years ahead of the industry."

For example, the time interval between the original novel and the remake of Joy of Life is ten years.

Now, he is using a novel that will receive 10,000 orders ten years later as the original version. If it were now, that would be a gap of twenty years.

After further adaptation, it can at least surpass 99% of the current scripts.

"I'm not exaggerating, but if my script were put on the current historical drama market, it would basically be at the top of the market."

Da Tiantian actually agreed with this statement in her heart, but seeing Zhou Mo so proud, she said stubbornly: "That's not necessarily true. There are so many good scripts on the market."

Zhou Mo complained: "Who is it, Gao Xixi's Three Kingdoms?"

Da Tiantian: ...

The New Three Kingdoms directed by Gao Xixi was aired some time ago. It was so outrageous that it was criticized a lot on the Internet.

What is "If I tell you my name, you will be shocked".

Cao Cao shouted in front of Fatty Dong: "Traitor Dong Zhuo".

Sun Ce held the imperial seal in his hand and said to Sun Jian, "Dad, we can be crowned emperor now.

They are all famous scenes.

Chen Jianbin, an award-winning actor who has won numerous awards many years ago, was commented by many people after he finished starring in this drama: "his performance was based on a thesis defense."

Da Tiantian: "It's a good shot, but Gao Xixi, please don't take it anymore in the future."

The two chatted for a while and talked about the candidates:
"Tell me, who is the hero in your heart? Don't try to deceive me."

Zhou Mo smiled and uttered three words:
"Zhu Yilong."

"Our classmates?"

"You know him?"

Da Tiantian rolled her eyes beautifully: "Mr. Zhou, what kind of image do I have in your eyes? The incident with Lei Jiayin last time was just a coincidence."

Xianyu turned over and asked, "By the way, how did you come up with the idea of ​​looking for Zhu Yilong?"

"Zhu Yilong doesn't look bad, his acting skills are pretty good, and he's a nice person. Why not choose him? His character image is just right." Zhou Mo spread his hands.

The real reason was that Zhou Mo had seen the young master played by Zhu Yilong.

I have to say, the acting was really good.

There are not many people of the same age who can be funny, have good acting skills, and have a good image.

Zhang Yi can act, but he has a contract.

Luo Jin's acting skills can't hold up.

The company recommended Du Chun to him, who has acting skills, fame and temperament.

But Zhou Mo rejected it on the spot.

The self-destructing infantry is too cruel, I can’t bear it.

The scenes in "The Knife-Stabbing Sect" were so beautiful that he didn't even dare to look at them.

Da Tiantian felt uncomfortable lying down, so she simply took off her shoes, revealing her two white and tender feet.

"Speaking of character images, Zhou Mo, your portrayal of the protagonist Zhao Kuo is ten thousand times better than the original Yi Xiaochuan."

She doesn't like Yi Xiaochuan's image.

Not only is he involved in love affairs everywhere, but the key is that he is not responsible and just wants to escape.

Zhou Mo complained: "I don't know whether you are scolding me or praising me."

"Of course I'm praising you. You write better than Yi Xiaochuan. What's wrong with that?"

"Is it possible that anyone can write better than Yi Xiaochuan?"

Da Tiantian: ...

It seems so.

The character of the original Yi Xiaochuan is really weird, and he performs breathtaking actions in many plots that make people applaud.

Give a simple example:
In dealing with the relationship between Lu Zhi and Lu Su, Yi Xiaochuan used deception, escape, and escape. In the plot, Yi Xiaochuan saved the lives of several members of the Lu family, which led to the two sisters' secret love.

Later, with the help of Lu Zhi, Yi Xiaochuan successfully made a charger. In his excitement, he hugged and kissed Lu Zhi.

This is ancient times, brother.

Kissing and hugging an unmarried girl, is this something a normal person can do?
There are even worse.

The subsequent plot is that by chance, Yi Xiaochuan met Liu Bang, and the two became sworn brothers. Liu Bang had long fallen in love with Lu Zhi and wanted to marry her, so he asked Yi Xiaochuan to act as a matchmaker.

And Yi Xiaochuan actually agreed.

What a super minotaur.

The key point is that Zhou Mo only knew that there were cows, but he didn’t figure out who was the cow.

However, this is not the best part.

Later, when Lu Zhi learned that her sister Lu Su also liked Yi Xiaochuan, she found Yi Xiaochuan alone, expressed her love, and asked him to propose to her father. At this time, Yi Xiaochuan chose to refuse and said that he really liked Lu Su. Lu Zhi left sadly.

Unexpectedly, the conversation was heard by Lu Su, who believed it to be true. When Yi Xiaochuan went to Xianyang later, Lu Su followed him disguised as a man and confessed her true feelings to him.

Then, Yi Xiaochuan said:

"You didn't expect that, haha. Actually, I don't like you either."

The key point is that later, Lu Su and Yi Xiaochuan contracted the plague at the same time. Lu Su left the only medicine to Yi Xiaochuan and chose to die herself.

Whenever Zhou Mo thought of this plot, he felt like he was constipated for ten days.

Damn, what a crap plot.

Even what I write with my toe hair is better than yours.

Even so, the opening episode of "The Myth" had a peak viewership of 4.13% for a single episode, and the average viewership for the first six episodes was 3.13%.

As a veteran with nearly 20 years of experience in the industry, Zhou Mo has a basic understanding of character creation:
You can be bad but not despicable; you can be cruel but not a scumbag.

What this means is that, in the characterization of the protagonist, he can be a fierce and even brutal thug, but he cannot be a scumbag who betrays feelings.

You can be a villain who does all kinds of bad things, but you cannot be a timid leper.

Can you imagine Gao Qiqiang abandoning his wife and children at a critical moment?

Can you imagine Xu Wenqiang being timid and irresponsible?
However, Yi Xiaochuan easily accomplished the above two things:

When the woman (Lü Zhi) needed him the most, he turned around and ran away.

He gave advice and suggestions when his brother (Zhao Gao) needed him the most.

In Zhou Mo's opinion, Yi Xiaochuan was like a wild donkey, avoiding the correct answer without hesitation, and then running headfirst into these two taboos.

Absolutely.

Da Tiantian expressed deep agreement with this: "Yi Xiaochuan's character is so badly portrayed, a white lotus, a saintly bitch, and irresponsible. The same goes for the female characters, who are all like they are under a spell and are too obsessed with love."

Zhou Mo: ...He glanced at Da Tiantian silently.

Sister, do you have the nerve to criticize others?

After all, they are characters in the script, they are fictional.

You are truly a love-brained person.

Da Tiantian didn't realize it at all, and continued to talk to herself: "Also, his plot is very strange. Yi Xiaochuan had many opportunities to fight back, but he chose to give up in the end. The reason was that he was afraid of changing history."

What Da Tiantian said is the second failure of this drama.

One of the important reasons why Yi Xiaochuan did such a thing was that he was afraid of changing the course of history.

So, when Lu Zhi expressed her love to Yi Xiaochuan, he backed off and used Lu Zhi's sister Lu Su as a shield, without caring whether it would hurt another woman.

In addition, Yi Xiaochuan was framed by Liu Bang more than once. The reason he could have fought back but gave up was because he felt that history could not be changed.

The founder of the Han Dynasty was Liu Bang, so Liu Bang could not die.

Liu Bang's wife was Lu Zhi, so he could not accept Lu Zhi.

No, brother, you have traveled through history, so why are you afraid of changing history?

If you don’t travel through time, you’re afraid of changing history.

After traveling through time, are you still afraid of changing history?

Then wouldn’t your travel through time be in vain?

With such a timid character, Qidian would have to apologize to all the readers!
　Please collect, recommend, and give me monthly votes.

　　ps1: I originally wanted to make some improvements to the original plot, so I watched "The Myth" again. However, when I saw Yi Xiaochuan scolding his good brother Gao Yao several times, I couldn't stand it anymore.

　　So, just apply it to the novel.

　　ps2: Lao Lang is a bad guy. I cried so hard several times watching "Picking Up the Emperor"
　　ps3: If it is original, there should be more chapters, unlike the previous "Love Broken Heart", where one chapter was filmed, one chapter was promoted, and one chapter was released.
