Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 522 Red Temperature
Xiao Tu is dead.

To be precise, it was Xiao Tu, who was controlled by Da Tiantian, who was shot dead by a Japanese officer.

Da Tiantian watched the screen gradually lose color and finally turn black and white due to the death of the protagonist, with a large bright word in the middle of the screen.

dead.

This is the solution to each protagonist's death, and a special scene will be given on the screen.

Originally, when playing the trial version, Da Tiantian was already very familiar with this special show, but now, in front of so many audiences, she chose the wrong option and was shot.

Da Tiantian felt that the word on the screen was not "death" but "dish".

The big word "菜" (vegetable) looked like a smiling face, mocking the ambitions that Da Tiantian had just set.

Don't worry, everyone. We won't make any mistakes this time.

Da Tiantian stared at the screen, but her eyes secretly glanced at the barrage.

I saw that the barrage was now surrounded by a completely different atmosphere.

"I've said it before, there's absolutely no mistake."

"That's right. He didn't die the previous two times, but he died directly this time. If this isn't the right choice, what else could it be?"

"Ha ha ha, you're secretly reading the comments, right? I can't hold it anymore."

"I didn't expect that the sweet princess is actually a comedian. I just discovered it when I came here today."

"No, Gomen, why are all three options wrong? Is this game so outrageous?"

It wasn't until she saw the latest news that Da Tiantian reacted.

Yes.

Why are all three options not possible?
She exited the transition and returned to the game process, staring at the game options carefully.

That's right. Three of them.

First, the comrade was arrested.

Second, he was caught.

The third one was that he was destroyed.

There are three endings in total, three bad options, and no subsequent branch lines.

Isn't this a dead end?
Did I fail to notice some details, or were some options not included before?

Da Tiantian began to look forward at some branches.

She hasn't played many games, but she knows that some game designers will hide some special plots, and the hidden plots can only be unlocked when all conditions are met.

However, after searching for a while, nothing was found.

At the same time, the barrage was also offering suggestions.

Da Tiantian tried several more times according to the fans' requests, but none of the methods were successful.

Seeing that the comments were about to start a quarrel, Da Tiantian just waved her hand.

"Friends, stop arguing. I have a solution."

Barrage:? ? ?
There is a way?
any solution?
The audience behind the screen was looking forward to what new thing Da Tiantian was going to do, but she picked up her phone and dialed a number.

After the call was connected, he asked directly:
"Zhou Mo, I know you are watching my live broadcast. What is going on with the current plot? If you have any secrets or something, send them to me quickly!"

Audiences:……

Okay.

Just ask for external help, and the person who wrote the script is here, right?

This idea is really feasible, they didn’t think of it at the first time.

On the other hand, even Zhou Mo did not expect that Da Tiantian would call him directly and ask how to deal with the subsequent plot.

However, doing so also avoids wasting too much time and affecting the live viewing experience.

As expected of you.

Big sweet.

He thought about it and spoke into the microphone.

“There is no subsequent plot.”

Da Tiantian on the other end of the phone was stunned and said subconsciously.

"How is this possible? This branch of the storyline has just begun, why is there no follow-up?"

"But the fact is that there is no such thing, because this line symbolizes that Xiao Tu's identity has been leaked, and the result that awaits him is that he will be arrested. You should have seen these contents in the short ending just now."

There is no subsequent plot?
Then wasn't all her hard work just now, searching for clues over and over again and analyzing the plot, just a battle of wits and courage with the air?
Da Tiantian suddenly felt a deep sense of malice.

There is no doubt that this was done by Zhou Mo, the scriptwriter.

But it certainly wouldn't do if the conversation ended here.

Setting up a "dead end" plot line for no reason will not satisfy the audience, but will make the audience feel that this is a stupid thing to do.

As Chekhov's gun theory:
If there is a gun in the first act of a novel, then the gun must be fired in the third act.

So, we need to make this line round.

After thinking about it, Da Tiantian asked again.

"But what's the point of doing this? Adding another side quest? Just to increase the amount of game play?" Zhou Mo understood what Da Tiantian meant. He had already prepared a draft in his mind, and took the opportunity to reveal everything at once.

"of course not.

The plot is designed in this way to convey a message to the audience:
Working behind enemy lines is actually a very dangerous job. If you are not careful, not only your own life will be in danger, but also the safety of your comrades, friends, and even the organizations and strongholds above and below you.

In some spy war dramas in the past, we often see that the protagonist is like a god, always able to react to conspiracies and always able to see through the traps set by the local authorities. But the reality is that the real work is very difficult and there is always the possibility of endangering life.

Therefore, in the game, we try to restore this kind of situation as much as possible. Just like the branch you just played, we added some small habits for Xiao Tu in this branch plot line that he did not have in other lines, and it was these small habits that exposed his identity.

There will be many more such plot developments in the future.”

Datiantian nodded and gave a thumbs up to Zhou Mo's speech in his heart.

With these words, it is equivalent to adding an extra meaning to these endings, and the feeling of "abrupt ending" will be much less.

Following Zhou Mo's instructions, she compared some of Xiao Tu's small actions in different plot lines.

Sure enough, there were indeed some small changes, which exactly matched what Zhou Mo said.

If she hadn't been reminded, she really wouldn't have noticed these little details before.

But now that we have discovered it, we all feel very happy.

At this time, take another look at the barrage.

As expected, the comments increased from a series of "mystification" half a minute ago to "Is this the Easter egg?"

Looking at the sudden change in the style of the barrage content, Da Tiantian did not feel very angry. Instead, she thought that this generation of netizens was quite cute.

As long as you explain the problem clearly, you can appease the child.

"Okay, now I understand the situation. I'll be prepared for the follow-up and I'm sure I'll be able to find changes in the protagonist's behavior pattern. Come on, friends, watch me go through it again."

Zhou Mo shook his head and looked at Da Tiantian on the screen with some pity in his eyes.

Silly child, if it was really that easy, would I have spent so much time studying the script?
There are still many pitfalls ahead.

Not surprisingly, in the next less than twenty minutes, Da Tiantian once again experienced the trap-setting plot more than once.

I thought the plot was fine, but it ended up with a bad resolution right from the start.

I thought I had discovered the clue in the little plot, but it was actually a smokescreen that completely concealed the real trap.

then……

boom!
Da Tiantian slapped the table.

"Why is this happening? How did he find out my identity?...Oh, so that's how it is. OK! I understand. There will be absolutely no problem from now on!"

boom!
He banged his fist on the table.

Da Tiantian stared at the "dish" on the screen and her expression began to distort.

"How could he break me? On what basis did he break me? I clearly did not have any problems this time...ah, so it turned out that I was betrayed in the previous option?"

boom!
This is the sound of a head hitting the table.

Da Tiantian covered her face.

"Why? Why is this person one of ours? Didn't he try to assassinate me before?"

In just twenty minutes, Da Tiantian's originally fair face was stained with a layer of pink.

There is no other reason, it is purely the result of the surge of qi and blood.

Too bad.

It's really a scam.

When I watched spy war TV dramas in the past, I always felt that although many things seemed very ingenious, they could be made up if you thought about it carefully.

But when it was my turn to play, I died without knowing why or what happened.

I can still remember clearly what I know.

But I have no idea what the other party knows.

It is very likely that a certain sentence in the previous chapter is actually an important clue in the next chapter.

"But who can remember this thing? I have to remember one of your words for three days." Da Tiantian was a little crazy.

At this time, jokes started again on the barrage.

"It's red and warm. It's really red and warm."

"What can I do? I can't remember it, and I can't react. The only thing I can do is die."

Zhou Mo was laughing loudly in the room.

This is the state of losing the God’s perspective and adding narration explanation.

When following Yu Zecheng's perspective, everyone knew that the webmaster was a little greedy, Li Ya was an opponent, and Ma Kui was very clumsy.

But without a God's perspective, let alone Yu Zecheng's analytical ability, let alone figuring out the characteristics of the webmaster, Li Ya, and Ma Kui, who is Li Ya and who is Ma Kui is the first thing that needs to be done.

This is the charm of the optimized "Guardians".

Many times, Xiao Tu didn’t even know whether the different characters he faced were enemies or friends.

And their true identities are actually completely hidden in the lines.

This undoubtedly greatly increases the difficulty of the game.
