Perfect Life

Vol 2 Chapter 65: Demolition?

The waiter quickly came over and served tea, Cheng Suping thanked him, picked up the teapot himself, poured a cup for each of them, and then looked at Li Qian with a smile.

Li Qian opened it and looked at the beginning. He was sure that it was correct, and he didn't even make any changes, so he turned back to the first page, raised his head, and smiled helplessly.

Cheng Suping also smiled, pointed to the first page of the script, and asked, "That Li Qian, is this Li Qian?"

Li Qian nodded, closed the book, and asked, "Who found you? Which role?"

Cheng Suping said: "It was Director Yu. Brother Wang brought him to listen to a play of mine, and then they went to the backstage and talked first, and the next day, he sent the book to my house. Go. Say you want me to play the heroine, green onion."

Li Qian nodded, thought about it, and asked, "Then you... agreed?"

Cheng Suping smiled when he heard the words, "I don't want to hear your advice! You are also one of the screenwriters!"

Li Qian thought for a while and said, "Brother Yu! No! Wrong! We have a good relationship, this is true. This book was saved by Brother Cao and I for him. Even here, there are many scenes. , I wrote it myself. …”

Speaking of this, he stopped suddenly, looked up at Cheng Subing, and suddenly asked, "Sister, actually, you prefer acting in movies and TV dramas compared to singing, right?"

Cheng Suping didn't look surprised when he heard the words, but after thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "That's right, it's not right. In fact, I like it a lot. It's just... Now singing is even my old job. Well, I also want to try something new."

Li Qian nodded, "So, are you going to take it?"

Cheng Suping smiled again when he heard the words, "I've been graduating for several years, and this is the first play that came to me! ... Well. Yes, I want to try it to see if I can act like this. play."

Li Qian heard the words and sighed in his heart, a little confused.

This play, to put it simply, is actually not complicated. But it's not easy to say, it's really not a simple play.

This story is about the period of the Republic of China, that is, the Shun Dynasty had perished, but during the period before the founding of New China, modern consciousness was gradually entering the country and began to affect many people. At home, there is a maid who has sold her body because she is clumsy. She was not good at serving people, so she was sent to the kitchen to help the cook cut vegetables, and everyone called her "green onion". Basically, she was the kind of person with the lowest status in the society at that time.

She was ignorant at first, and was deceived by the housekeeper who was in charge of grocery shopping, but the housekeeper refused to even marry her as a concubine, not because he was afraid of his wife, but mainly because the green onion was a "slave". It can only be assigned to the servants of the family and give birth to children and grandchildren. Continue to be a slave. However, he has always maintained a lover relationship with Cong Hua'er, and later introduced her to a good friend of his, the accountant, or even under his introduction. Onion Hua'er also slept with a pig butcher, because the housekeeper wanted to buy meat cheaper, so he got more rebates from it.

In short, so unknowingly, the green onion has almost become the social flower of the bottom society.

But the green onion is very resigned. She has always been submissive, just begging the housekeeper to let him talk to her about her relatives and not let her marry a servant of her own family in the future, because she does not want her children to be servants of others in the future. The housekeeper agreed non-stop, saying that he was going to tell her to a distant nephew.

So Cong Hua'er acted ignorantly as the housekeeper's underground lover and as a courtesan in the housekeeper's hands, while looking forward to a future marriage. She even went to sneak a peek at the housekeeper's distant nephew. Although she didn't like it very much, she thought he was stupid and looked very dark, but because he was a freelancer and a commoner, she felt inwardly. There is no idea of ​​resistance, just thinking about marrying a chicken with a chicken and a dog with a dog, and fantasizing about the bright future after the descendants will no longer be slaves of human beings.

But she didn't know that the housekeeper just lied to her.

How could he, a small housekeeper in charge of purchasing, have the right to marry off the owner's property?

So, in the face of Onion Hua'er's request, he kept making excuses to shirk, but he patted his chest and said it was fine. Later, news came that his distant nephew was married.

Onion Hua'er was furious and felt that she had been deceived, and once held the knife to kill the housekeeper. But who is she, and who is the housekeeper? Facing her kitchen knife, the housekeeper scolded her, but instead she cringed. The housekeeper told her that she was only the lowest slave, and that she would never want to marry freely in this life and in the next life.

After the inner hope was extinguished, the green onion became more and more promiscuous. She even became the "sister" in some people's mouths, and she gradually became numb in the face of those ugly guys.

Later, with the introduction of the consciousness of freedom in modern society, the concept of freedom of marriage and freedom of love also spread in. Even at this time, the old man who had been scolding the revolutionary party all the time, also transformed himself into a new-style figure, and began to serve as a sectarian. Members of Tianfu, outside the home, talk about democracy and freedom. Onion Hua'er gradually became fascinated by her eyes and ears, and she began to have thoughts in her heart.

At this time, by chance, she met a college student and helped him hide in the house of the congressman, so that he escaped the search. Then, I have to say, young college students, full of new ideas, new thinking, full of democracy and freedom in the country and the world, Hua Onion fell in love with him almost immediately.

So, she seemed to come back to life suddenly.

She began to take the initiative to break free, and often slipped out to listen to the university student's lectures. The two had frequent contact, and then the two finally slept together. For that night, she even secretly made a handkerchief with chicken blood, trying to hide herself from being wrong. The fact that she was a woman, and the college student didn't seem to notice.

Then the student left, according to him, the revolution was about to be won, and he was going to join the army. He also said that when he came back, he would marry her beautifully. So, after he left, Onion Hua'er waited with hope. Her past lovers, the housekeeper, and the accountant, came to tease her one after another, but she faced each other with kitchen knives, so frightened that the gang didn't dare to approach her again.

But after more than a year, Cong Huaer was almost 20 years old. According to the rules, she was assigned to another servant by the master of the family. Onion Hua'er firmly disagreed, and told the master and wife that democracy and freedom were just and stern, and the master was furious. He beat her up and ignored her objections and ordered her to marry.

But the dramatic thing is that the next day, the revolutionary army entered the city.

A woman who had a good relationship with Onion Huaer told her that she had seen it with her own eyes. The college student was sitting in a jeep, wearing a well-shaven military uniform, and it seemed that he had become a high-ranking official. Onion flowers are very happy and full of anticipation.

When the news spread, even the big housekeeper in the house looked at her differently, and her former housekeeper lover also came with the wife at home, crying and begging for forgiveness. Everyone is talking about spring onion as a legend.

All of this seems to indicate that the democracy, freedom, and love that the green onion has been pursuing. It's finally here.

And sure enough, as the situation in the city gradually stabilized, about ten days after the revolutionary army entered the city, just when the green onion was waiting, the college student came to the door.

Onion Hua'er was overjoyed, but then news came that he had come to propose to the former MP. He fell in love with the third daughter of the congressman, and the uneasy congressman was overjoyed. At that time, I agreed, and the wedding date was set in a month.

After Cong Hua'er got the news, she found the yamen where the college student was, but she was beaten out without even seeing the other party, but she went there every day, like crazy. later. When the college student came out, she questioned him, but the other party replied with a sneer: You are no longer worthy of me.

So, a month later, the night of the college students' marriage. The onion was hanged.

…………

After the script came out, according to Yu Bojun's estimate, it would take about two hours.

And to be honest, the story itself is not novel, nor does it have too much story tension, plus it is destined to be quite lengthy foreshadowing and slow rhythm, it is destined that this film will never become a blockbuster.

In people's minds, even in the opinion of many directors, screenwriters, and producers who have been in the film industry for many years, it can't be a commercial blockbuster, and it seems that it can only be called a literary film?

In fact, literary films are not so cheap!

It does not mean that it is not commercial, it can be very "literary".

In Li Qian's view, in addition to commercial films and literary films, there is also a type of film called bad film.

And this book that he, Cao Zhan and Yu Bojun fiddled with, if it fell into the hands of some extremely awesome directors, it might really be able to rejuvenate, and it could really make it a shocking, even tortured human nature. A literary film, but it fell into the hands of Yu Bojun, who was just about to use it to practice his skills... This guy has been very careless in making commercial films for so many years before. You can expect him to suddenly switch to making literary films, and he can play a lot. high level?

Therefore, even if it is not made into a bad film, in Li Qian's opinion, it is estimated that it is just an ordinary level.

The reason is very simple. The penetrating power of the script itself is a little bit worse. I always feel that it is still separated by a layer and not fully explained, and the director's skill must be a little bit worse...

If Yu Bojun had found another actor, Li Qian would have nothing to do with him and would be too lazy to take care of him, but he chose Cheng Suping to play this "green onion", and Li Qian felt a little tangled in his heart.

Holding the cup and taking a sip of tea, he raised his head and looked at Cheng Su bottle, and said slowly: "Although I have a part in this book, I still think...Sister, why don't you think about this book? "

Cheng Suping glanced at Li Qian in surprise when he heard the words, and immediately smiled: "What? As a screenwriter, you are so familiar with the director, yet you have no confidence in it?"

Li Qian shrugged. It was inconvenient to dismantle the buddy's stage and said that Yu Bojun's director was not good enough, so he had to patiently analyze the defects of this book with Cheng Subing, which meant that he was not good enough.

In short, under Li Qian's analysis, this film has almost one result, that is, it becomes a bad film.

And there is no doubt that when making a bad film, in addition to the remuneration that can be obtained, the actor's acting career is often more negative than positive. Not only word-of-mouth, even acting skills, many times, because a film is badly made, it often affects the actor's confidence in himself.

Cheng Suping nodded slowly while listening to Li Qian's analysis. When Li Qian was almost finished, she thought about it and asked with some reluctance: "Since you also know that there are so many deficiencies, you can't think about it. How to change it again?"

Li Qian heard the words helplessly: "I'm not an immortal, I want to change, Brother Cao also wants to change, Brother Yu must think more than us! We all want to make this book more complete and more penetrating, but ... our level is limited!"

Cheng Suping smiled when he heard the words, and really comforted Li Qian like a big sister, and said, "Don't say that. How old are you? Before graduating from university, you have already written so many good songs and made so many good songs. Many albums, and now not only the photography, but even the script can be written at this level, which is already amazing!"

Having said that, she thought for a while and said, "After graduation, Jing has been busy singing operas. In fact, after reading this book, I didn't see what you said, and I think it's pretty good. But... Since You said that, then I'll think about it again."

After she finished speaking, she raised her wrist to look at her watch and smiled: "I've been sitting here for a long time, are you hungry? Come on, my sister invites you to dinner! Thank you for showing me so much, even torn down the stage of your good buddy. ."

Li Qian smiled when he heard the words, and casually replied "Okay", while subconsciously looked down at the name of the script in his hand, and then returned the book to Cheng Suping in a complicated mood.

To be honest, at least half of this book is Li Qian's hard work, no matter what the level is, but he really put a lot of effort into it. So, no matter from which point of view he considers it, how could he be willing to say that his work is a bad movie even if it is made? Doesn't he wish his book could be better?

But think about it again... Hey, forget it, from being a third-rate actor and a small assistant director, now not only can I write the script by myself, but I have already written it to the current level. In fact, I have made great progress~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ At this stage, it should be enough, isn't it?

…………

After having dinner together in the evening, watching Cheng Suping drive away, Li Qian got into his car and drove back.

After tossing Xie Bing twice, Xie Bing was tired and sleepy, and soon fell into a deep sleep, but Li Qian was still mentally terrified, without any sleepiness at all.

After staying up until after midnight, Li Qian was still unable to fall asleep. Li Qian simply put on his clothes, poured himself a glass of warm water to drink, and then went to the studio, turned on the computer, and entered his mailbox. , I downloaded the document of "Love of Green Onion" and read it from the beginning.
