Depressive screenwriter.

Chapter 44, starting to get depressed!

At 8 pm on Sunday, the last of the three A-level dramas of this season, "Doctor Lone", a big-budget drama with an investment of more than 40 million yuan by Shanghai TV, was broadcast.

The response after the broadcast was mediocre. It cannot be said that it was bad, but it can only be said that it did not meet the expectations of many viewers.

Sakura.com, Xingxia.com, and Hongsong.com are subsidiaries independently controlled by the three major TV stations. Together with Raccoon.com, which is jointly invested by several film companies, they are known as the four major online broadcasting platforms in Xiaguo.

Many young viewers not only follow the drama on TV but also on online streaming platforms.

Over time, these four websites have become places for young drama fans to complain.

After the first episode of "Doctor Lone" was broadcast.

As usual, the exchange conference for a number of TV series that were aired this season began on the forums of these four websites.

"I won't say any more. Lone Doctor is too mediocre. There's nothing much to say about the plot. The highlight is the participation of the best actress Ma Yijia. Without Ma Yijia, this drama would be useless."

"Sakura TV's Gilded Man is also boring as hell. What era is this? The plot still uses these routines. I am almost sick of it."

"The suspense drama "The Man in the Picture" on Zhongxia TV made me laugh. It's not scary at all. It's the first time I watch a suspense horror drama and I hope I can be the protagonist in the drama. Haha."

"It's extremely mediocre. Just like last season, these A-level dramas are probably just like this. The ratings will be above 4% at best. It's a pipe dream to expect them to be higher, to reach the level of a hit or even a blockbuster."

"But the drama called 'Night Sakura' that started airing on Saturday is actually quite interesting. I feel like the screenwriter is of a high standard. Although the plot is easy to guess, at least it doesn't lower your intelligence."

"Don't say that. The screenwriter of the drama "Night Sakura" and the screenwriter of "Seifeng" are the same person, both of them are Kiyota Sanji. Haha, if you follow "Night Sakura", just wait for you to be fed shit in the later stage."

"What? The same screenwriter as Qing Feng?"

"Damn, I wasted an hour yesterday watching Night Sakura."

"You can't say that. If the previous game was a mess, maybe the sequel will be good?"

"There's only one person like that in ten. Most of the time, if a screenwriter has had an attack once, they'll have it periodically throughout their life."

"I didn't expect the quality of TV series and movies released this quarter to be worse than last quarter. There will be another TV series shortage."

"Alas, only Rurouni Kenshin was good last season. What a pity, Rurouni Kenshin only has four episodes, and it's a web series."

"Yes. I can't imagine if Rurouni Kenshin could be broadcasted during prime time on TV."

"If you like watching Rurouni Kenshin, why don't you watch Ancient Love Song? They both have the same screenwriter."

"Ancient Love Song? What the hell? I've never heard of it!"

"It's the new work of Su Yan, the screenwriter of Rurouni Kenshin! But this drama seems to be ignored. It was actually scheduled to be broadcast on Sakura TV at midnight on Sunday. If you count the time, it's eleven o'clock now. In less than an hour, the second episode of Ancient Love Song will be broadcast."

"?"

“Is this drama good?”

"It's good. I'm very picky when it comes to dramas, but when I watched this drama last week, I was very serious from beginning to end. Although it was confusing because the setting hasn't been revealed yet, I really found it interesting."

"Let me tell you about the setting of an ancient love song. A modern man travels through time to the ancient times to pick up a queen! How about it, is it attractive?"

"?"

"So cool?"

"Fuck, what kind of brain hole is this?"

"Is this true? The setting of this drama is so novel? Then why, when I checked, the ratings of this drama were only 1.38% when it first aired! How can a drama with such low ratings be good?"

"What do you think of a midnight drama? Last quarter, the first episode of a drama in the same time slot on Sakura TV only had a 0.96% viewership rating. At least the first episode of Ancient Love Song performed better than its predecessors."

"Oh my god, Rurouni Kenshin is writing a new drama? It's over. The top management of Sakura TV is so stupid that they don't even publicize this kind of information? I haven't watched the first episode of Ancient Love Song. Can I start from the second episode?"

"You can catch up on the second episode of Ancient Lovesickness tonight! Tomorrow night, the first episode of Ancient Lovesickness will be online on Sakura.com. You can just spend one dollar to catch up then. It won't have much impact."

As it approached midnight, the time for Ancient Love Song to start airing, Su Yan's fans began to become active again.

By midnight, Cao Huan was already very sleepy.

As an office worker with good habits, he is used to going to bed early and getting up early.

But still forcing myself to suffer.

He is waiting.
Finally, at midnight, the screen on Sakura TV changed.

Cao Huan's eyes lit up. Here he comes.
The opening theme of Ancient Love Song sounded.

Soon, the title "Episode 2" emerged.

[Episode 13: Am I in a loop? ]

There was a thoughtful look in Cao Huan's eyes.

The title of the first episode of Ancient Love Song is [Episode 14].

However, the second episode was marked as [Episode 13] at the beginning.

Just as he guessed, the title of this drama was announced backwards.

Therefore, the final length of the drama can be determined.

Fourteen episodes.
The title of the fourteenth episode will definitely be [Episode 1].

The plot continues from the end of the first episode.

The city defenders led by Lu Yuan and the rebels led by the traitorous Prime Minister Li Yong fought at the east gate.

In this plot
Lu Yuan, holding a three-foot-long green sword and wearing a red skirt, fought her way in and out of the enemy's army.

Cao Huan was stunned.

Is this still the same weak and frail Xue Dai Ba?

Although his movements are not as good as those of Kenshin actor Su Yan, it is obvious that he put a lot of effort into it.

As far as Su Yan is concerned, he personally feels that the character settings of Lu Yuan and her brother Lu Shi in Ancient Love Song are more similar to Emperor Wu of Han's Empress Wei Zifu and her nephew Huo Qubing.

They are all outstanding women and top-notch generals.

This fighting scene of Lu Yuan has already demonstrated her fighting power.

And through her fighting power, we can infer the strength of her brother Lu Shi.

This way it won't be too abrupt in the later episodes as to why a young man like Lu Shi could become the general of Sheng State and an idol in the army.

Because Su Yan had an even more perverted champion named Huo Qubing in his previous life, these outrageous settings in the TV series become normal.

Of course, the fighting scenes are just a bonus for this drama, and the advancement of the main storyline is the most important.

Li Yong, who was watching the fight between the two sides, looked at Shen Buyan, who was being protected by Lu Yuan with all his might in the crowd, and took out a crossbow from his sleeve. It was obvious that he knew and hated Shen Buyan, so he attacked without mercy.

A sneak attack.
Shen Buyan didn't react, but Lu Yuan did. She hugged Shen Buyan tightly and pushed him back, but she was pierced in the back by a crossbow arrow.
Lu Yuan fell into Shen Buyan's arms, barely breathing.

The defenders were thrown into chaos.

Li Yong took advantage of the chaos to take away Shengguo's military secrets and city defense maps and left through the east gate.

"Ah?" Cao Huan looked confused.

No matter how you look at it, Lu Yuan is the heroine, right?

She can't die, can she?
"Shen Buyan" Lu Yuan fell into Shen Buyan's arms with a weak expression.

Although Shen Buyan never told her his full name, Lu Yuan called out his name.

"Shen Buyan, don't be afraid." Lu Yuan looked at Shen Buyan's profile, her eyes full of complexity and reluctance, but she comforted Shen Buyan with a smile on her lips.

"Don't be afraid, you will see me again."

Gu Qingyuan's acting skills, coupled with the sensational BGM.

Cao Huan suddenly felt a little sour in his nose.

What does it mean that I will see her again? Does she think she will not die?

Shen Buyan looked at Lu Yuan's bloodstained body, not knowing what to say to this demon queen who she had just met tonight but risked her life to save her. Angry.

Because he knew the truth about the fifteenth year of Yuanqi in history.

Lu Yuan is not a demon queen, and Li Yong is not a wise prime minister.

History has slandered the woman who saved her for thousands of years.

Shen Buyan suddenly woke up.

He returned to the modern
On his desk, there were five pieces of broken jade. Two of them merged into one because of the blood from his nose before he traveled through time, turning into four pieces of broken jade, one large and three small.

Cao Huan looked confused at this moment.

"what?"

Can it still be done like this?

So Lu Yuan died there?
The heroine died to save you, and then the hero inexplicably returned to the modern era?
Screenwriter Su Yan, what are you doing?
At this time, the plot we want to see is the plot where Lu Yuan is rescued!

Shen Buyan in the plot is naturally unwilling to accept this.

He looked at the book in his study and found that the record in the book had changed. Lu Yuan died in the Yuanqi Rebellion in the fifteenth year of Yuanqi.

The male protagonist's time travel led to Lu Yuan's death!

Cao Huan was also angry.

How can I accept this plot?
The male protagonist Shen Buyan also realized the relationship between broken jade, blood, and time travel.

He quickly dripped his own blood on the broken jade, and sure enough.
My mind goes blank.

Shen Buyan is conscious.

[On the third month of the lunar calendar, people drink wine while enjoying the spring night.]

On the streets of the imperial capital of Sheng State, the lively residents were celebrating the Shangsi Festival.

He stood on the street, wearing the ancient costume that Lu Yuan had prepared for him when he first traveled through time.

The bright lights lit up the entire imperial capital.
Shen Buyan once again came to the ancient Sheng Kingdom and the imperial capital.

The night of Shangsi Festival has come again.

He wanted to change the fate of the woman who risked her life to save her.

He wanted to tell Lu Yuan everything.

Tell Li Yong that she will escape through the East Gate, and tell Lu Yuan that she will die there.

Change her fate of death.

Then, Shen Buyan saw that graceful figure on the street. She was moving among the crowds. She was beautiful, confident, and pretty, but her eyes were firm.
Cao Huan became nervous.

Damn, not dragging my feet at all.

However, Cao Huan also noticed something was wrong.

If it was still the Shangsi night, Shen Buyan had only traveled to one hour before Lu Yuan's death.

At this time, Lu Yuan should be waiting for his arrival in the palace, waiting to have dinner with him, and asking him questions. So why would she be wandering on the streets outside the palace?
Moreover, Lu Yuan's dress and makeup this time are completely different from the first time she traveled through time.

Shen Buyan chased after him, calling Lu Yuan's name.

Lu Yuan seemed to have heard something. She turned around and the two met again in the crowd.

An acrobat performing magic tricks and blowing fire, the lights, the crowd, and two pairs of eyes gazing at each other.

This picture is so beautiful.

Cao Huan's heart trembled.

He felt like he was about to fall in love with Lu Yuan.

This is so beautiful too.

Shen Buyan stepped forward and grabbed Lu Yuan's hand.

[Empress.] Shen Buyan said anxiously.

But Yihua ran up and interrupted Shen Buyan, saying that he was a playboy. After driving Shen Buyan away, he pulled Lu Yuan into the crowd.

Neither Lu Yuan nor Yi Hua recognized Shen Buyan this time.

Shen Buyan and the two separated.

Shen Buyan was dragged by the crowd to a place called Jinghua Tower.
Here he met a stupid man who gave Shen Buyan a token because Shen Buyan helped him.

Then a group of assassins came here and wanted to kill Shen Buyan directly after seeing his token.
This scene made Cao Huan dizzy.

Why is it different from the first time?
If he traveled back to before Lu Yuan's death, everything Shen Buyan experienced would definitely be the same as the first time.

Why did the plot change?
At the critical moment, Lu Yuan appeared and drove away the assassin.

Then Lu Yuan's younger brother, General Lu Shi, appeared
Shen Buyan in the play immediately noticed something was wrong.

Because in history, in the fifteenth year of Yuanqi, Lu Yuan's younger brother Lu Shi had already died.

If it was the fifteenth year of Yuanqi, there was no way Lu Shi would still be alive.

Lu Shi died in the fifth year of Yuanqi.
When Cao Huan saw this, he realized why he felt something was wrong.

The fifteenth year of Yuanqi, the fifth year of Yuanqi?

A flash of inspiration came into my mind.

Cao Huan also realized that the biggest setting of this drama is
Could it be that the male protagonist did not travel through time to the night of Shangsi Festival when Lu Yuan died when she was thirty-six years old?

But, if she traveled back to an earlier time, when Lu Yuan had not yet become the queen and her brother had not yet died, then Lu Yuan would only be 26 years old on the Shangsi Night, right?

A feeling of depression began to fill Cao Huan's heart.

The anxiety cannot be dispelled.

No wonder, thirty-six-year-old Lu Yuan knew Shen Buyan.

Because she was 26 years old and met Shen Buyan at this moment.

If that was the case, how could Shen Buyan save the 36-year-old Lu Yuan?

He can never go back to that night!
Isn’t Lu Yuan’s death a foregone conclusion?

And during the first time she traveled through time, Lu Yuan said before she died that Shen Buyan would see her again.

Lu Yuan didn't mean that Shen Buyan would continue to meet her after she recovered from her injuries.

She meant that Shen Buyan would meet her at the age of 26.

Meet her past self.

The first time I traveled through time, that night, those three questions and three answers, and those two people wandered the streets during the Shangsi Festival.

That was the last time Lu Yuan saw Shen Buyan in her life.

But for Shen Buyan.

However, he was able to travel through time a second time and meet 26-year-old Lu Yuan.

After understanding this setting, Cao Huan couldn't help but shed tears.

The 36-year-old Lu Yuan knew all of this, and she smiled and told Shen Buyan about it before she died.

【We will meet again!】?
