After the filming was completed, I awakened my superpowers.

Chapter 27: Choose One of Three, I Don’t Want Any of Them (Please Read More)
……

This is a near-future science fiction film called "My Bionic Girlfriend".

The story is set in 2050, when proxy wars are spreading all over the world, with tens of millions of people dying in wars every year and countless more being displaced.

The male protagonist is the leader of the anti-war organization [Dawn]. During an operation against the warmongering [Eternal Life Group], he accidentally saved the female protagonist. The two sides cooperated to deal with the Eternal Life Group. After a series of twists and turns, they destroyed the Eternal Life Group's bionic laboratory.

The male protagonist then discovered that the female protagonist was cooperating with him in order to rescue her father, Dr. Wu, who was controlled by the Eternal Life Group, and that the female protagonist was just a replacement created by Dr. Wu with great effort in order to commemorate his wife and daughter who died in a car accident.

In the end, the male lead gave up on the second female lead, confessed his love to the female lead, and got together with her.

Read the introduction and general synopsis.

It's not nice for Sheng Yixia to play tricks on others.

From the world background to the story background, this film is full of illogicality and melodrama. He also couldn't imagine that an online movie with an investment of only 4.3 million yuan would also be science fiction. What kind of science fiction scenes could it produce?

The production crew probably knew about this problem themselves, so they started to focus on romance.

Even the conspiracy to crush the bionic people of the Eternal Life Group was done with love and courage. He was also constantly in love during the whole process. What a ridiculous love affair. Your dad has been arrested for so long, and he is still in love every day.

A screenwriter wouldn’t be able to write a script if he doesn’t fall in love, right?
He even included some melodramatic plots such as jealousy between the male lead and the second female lead, and between the second male lead and the female lead.

Sheng Yixia was flipping through the script quickly while complaining crazily in his heart, from the male lead to the second male lead, from the female lead to the second female lead, they were all useless, this crappy drama would not even be played by him.

He threw the broken project aside and started working on the second one.

The name of this project is "Spring Breeze Left", which sounds like a weird literary and fresh style. Sure enough, after reading the introduction, he found that it was a campus romance drama about the pain of youth.

I took a closer look at the synopsis and storyline.

Sure enough, the sweetness of campus romance, the regret of having to separate to go to college after graduation, and then the reunion as an adult... In between, there are jealousy, misunderstandings, quarrels, reconciliation, and then breakup...

So you guys were dating in high school, right?

What kind of high school is this? A bunch of male and female students don't do their work, don't study hard, and spend all day dating and being jealous of each other.

Is this school so open?
Why did Sheng Yixia spend the whole summer in high school studying, studying, and studying hard... If he dared to fall in love, his mother and teachers would take turns to supervise him 24 hours a day.

Before Sheng Yixia could drop the script as if she had received an electric shock, Zhang Qing at the side spoke up: "Yixia, this movie [Spring Breeze Left] is good, right? The leading actress is a well-known and promising young actress with a good image. She and you really complement each other."

"The crew immediately noticed your student-like image, and both you and the male lead are top students, so you can act that way."

No, no, no, the male protagonist is a top student, but I am not.

I studied so hard but was still a few points short of being admitted to Peking University, while the male protagonist was able to get into Peking University despite being in love and jealous all the time. I, Sheng Yixia, feel ashamed of myself.

Even if Wang Jianfeng had an IQ like that of others, he would have to actively participate in the Mathematical Olympiad, get into the national team, and be admitted to the Yao Class.

Sheng Yixia was complaining crazily in his heart.

"Three hundred thousand, and I have also secured a salary of three hundred thousand for you." Zhang Qing said as if to seek credit, "The cost of this drama is only three million. Eight hundred thousand, and I have already secured the best salary for you." Sheng Yixia's expression was a little stiff.

Considering his current level and quality, letting him play the leading male role and paying him 300,000 yuan is indeed a great honor for him, but the problem is, what kind of cards can he get by playing such a role?
Love card?
As long as I insert the love card into the card slot, all girls will fall in love with me?
Didn’t he talk enough with Qin Weiwei before?
However, considering Sister Zhang Qing's mood, Sheng Yixia said carefully: "Sister Zhang Qing, let's not think about making money right now. This movie is too far into my comfort zone. Not only is it a waste of time, but it also doesn't improve my acting skills at all."

"Next we have to consider laying the groundwork for taking on the role of the magician Zhao Xingyao. We have to choose a role that can help me hone my acting skills in real combat."

Zhang Qing's expression froze slightly, but she seemed to be convinced by Sheng Yixia. She nodded and said, "I didn't think it through. We should really take a long-term view. Winning over Zhao Xingyao and playing him well should be our biggest goal at this stage."

"Take a look at the next project. The director is a new director who has won an award at Cannes. It's not an online movie, but a serious big-screen movie. But your salary for this one is low, only 50,000, and you can only play the second male lead."

Upon hearing this, Sheng Yixia's heart skipped a beat and he thought something was not good.

With his current qualifications and abilities, which serious big-screen movie would choose him to play the second male lead?

as predicted.

This is an art film called "Morning Glory Spring". The theme is a rural romance film from the 1960s and 1970s, interspersed with many explicit or implicit satires and criticisms of that era.

As for the cost, it’s about five or six million.

According to the project introduction, this is a film that is going to be exhibited abroad, and there is no expectation for domestic box office.

Sheng Yixia felt a little numb all over.

Sister Zhang Qing, no, this is the so-called “proper big-screen movie”?
Putting aside the director's purpose and intention in making this film, what skill card did Sheng Yixia get from the cynical second male lead, Runren, who went abroad on public funds after being admitted to a top domestic university and never came back?

Sheng Yixia fell into silence.

Among the three projects, none of them is reliable.

And every movie is about love, as if the screenwriter can't write without a love story.

After hesitating for a long time, Sheng Yixia put down "Morning Glory Spring" and silently picked up "My Bionic Girlfriend", which he despised at the beginning.

He now feels that this movie is actually quite good.

Sorry, "My Bionic Girlfriend", I was blind before.

"Yixia, you're not going to act in this one, are you?" Seeing him pick up "My Bionic Girlfriend" again, Zhang Qing looked a little embarrassed. "To be honest, many people in the industry are not optimistic about this sci-fi film with a budget of just over 4 million."

"Besides, the male lead of this film has already been booked, so you can only play the second male lead. His part is not that outstanding."

No, no, no, actually the male lead is not that outstanding.

Sheng Yixia complained silently in her heart, then gave Zhang Qing a gentle smile: "No, I want to play Dr. Wu."
