Chapter 398: Two Scripts

In the evening, when Guo Xiaoyu was writing a script in the living room, Zhang Xinyi came over and asked: "Xiaoyu, what are you doing?"

"Writing a script..." Guo Xiaoyu said without looking back: "I'm going to try to make a movie by myself, and this is the script."

"What is it? Can I see it?"

"Of course." Guo Xiaoyu stood up to pour a glass of water and gave her seat to Zhang Xinyi.

Zhang Xinyi watched for a long time and suddenly laughed: "This male protagonist's mouth is really bad! Is this the role you want to play, Xiaoyu?"

"Yes!" Guo Xiaoyu came over with a water glass and said: "This character is very malleable, and it will definitely be attractive if you play it well!"

"Indeed." Zhang Xinyi nodded and asked: "Have you considered the role of the female protagonist? It can be said that the heroine of this drama is colluded. If the male protagonist does not have a special surname and a vicious tongue, there is no way he can do it.

It’s not outstanding, so the heroine is very important.”

Hearing what Zhang Xinyi said, Guo Xiaoyu became interested, so he continued to ask: "What are the requirements for you to watch the selection of the heroine?"

"Well, let me see it..." Zhang Xinyi thought for a while and replied: "The first thing is the age. It's not good if it's too big or too small. Between twenty-three and twenty-five is the best.

, because it is easiest for a woman of this age to perform the heroine’s calmness and escape. The second issue is acting skills.

, this role is quite challenging, no one without acting skills will be able to do it, and if you partner with me, the girl must not be too plump. I am not talking about fat, but some girls have baby fat, look.

I feel fleshy when I stand up, and I don’t look good standing next to you."

Listening to Zhang Xinyi's words, the smile on Guo Xiaoyu's lips became stronger and stronger. Although they were talking about some basic issues, a girl from the literature department could see so much, which is already amazing enough! Guo Xiaoyu now has a deep understanding of

She became more and more interested, so she asked: "Do you have a copy of the script you wrote on the Internet? If so, can you show it to me now?"

"There seems to be one, let me look for it."

After a while, Zhang Xinyi put a computer in front of Guo Xiaoyu and said, "This is it. Take a look and see if there is anything that needs to be modified."

"Well, let me take a look and call you after I finish reading." After saying this, Guo Xiaoyu started to look. He wanted to see if Zhang Xinyi's skills at hand were as good as her mouth.

The script written by Zhang Xinyi is called "Our Graduation Season". It tells about the reluctance of high school students to let go of friendship and confusion about the future when they face graduation. It is a very simple but heartwarming drama. The whole plot of the drama is

The route of youth, friendship, ignorant love, separation, sorrow, and expectations for the future.

Seeing Guo Xiaoyu return the computer, Zhang Xinyi asked expectantly: "How do you feel?"

"That sounds good." Guo Xiaoyu changed his tone and said, "But I think there are a few problems."

"Well, what's the problem?"

"First of all, the first issue is the audience. Your entire film is set in a school in Taipei. This is the same as "The Girls We Chased in Those Years", or even worse than it, because all your stories

They all happen in school. If the background is a Taipei school, mainland students don’t know much about it, mostly because they lack a sense of involvement. Since the mainland dominates the domestic market, you can completely change the background to a mainland high school. If you don’t understand, you don’t understand it at all.

You can go and see China, and you can even go to school with them for a while."

Hearing Guo Xiaoyu's opinion, Zhang Xinyi nodded and said, "Then are there any questions?"

"Others are minor problems. There is another big problem, which is that the audience area is too small."

"What's the meaning?"

Guo Xiaoyu took a sip of water and said slowly: "Your whole drama takes place on campus. It is not so much a youth campus film, but a graduation documentary. The only films filmed in this way are people who are about to graduate."

Only when you can find the feeling, people who have been out of school and working for a few years will not watch this movie at all, because there is no sense of immersion at all!"

"What should we do?"

"It's very simple!" Guo Xiaoyu said: "We use memories to unfold, and the ending of the film plus the appearance of the main characters when they grow up. As for whether it will be good or bad when they grow up, it depends on you, so that he will not

It's just a youth campus film, and it's also a memory film. Adults will recall their own era when they see it." After a pause, Guo Xiaoyu continued: "Actually, your problem boils down to one thing...

"

"You are thinking in the wrong direction."

"Huh?" Zhang Xinyi obviously didn't understand what Guo Xiaoyu was talking about. She raised her head and looked at Guo Xiaoyu doubtfully.

"Your mind is still stuck on writing a good script."

"Isn't this wrong?"

"It can't be said that it's wrong." Guo Xiaoyu explained: "But before that, you must understand what a good script is. In my opinion, there are three kinds of good scripts, one is award-winning, and the other is good script.

As for box office, the last one is for both. But these three have one characteristic, the scripts they write are all aimed at the audience. Like yours

This play is obviously launched not to win any awards, but to get higher box office, so you naturally have to expand the audience. But your thinking is still at the level of me writing a good script. If you simply write

There is something wrong with the script, but if you want others to film the script you wrote, you must correct your thinking!"

Guo Xiaoyu's words shocked Zhang Xinyi to the spot. It turned out that she had always thought that she was very powerful. She had read a lot of scripts, but she felt that some of them were not as good as her own. For this masterpiece that she had worked so hard for, Zhang Xinyi was

I was quite confident, but when I went to Guo Xiaoyu, I found out so many problems!

As expected, the Golden Touch was not blown out. Zhang Xinyi bowed deeply to Guo Xiaoyu to express her gratitude!

"Okay, girl." Guo Xiaoyu said: "This is really a good book of yours. You have already built the big framework. All that's left is to add bricks and tiles. Take it back and revise it, and send it to me when you're done.

Look, I'm going to make it into a movie."

"Making a movie? Are you serious?" Zong Han, who had been silent for the whole time, jumped out.

"Of course!" Guo Xiaoyu said with a smile: "As long as Xinyi's book passes the test, we can start shooting right away."

"Yes!" Zong Han hugged Zhang Xinyi and shouted, "Xinyi, do you hear that? The script you wrote is going to be made into a movie."

"Hmm..." Zhang Xinyi was also very excited. She really didn't expect that her book might actually be made into a movie!

The two of them were so excited that they didn't notice that they were hugging each other tightly at this moment, and they were so harmonious. Anyway, in Guo Xiaoyu's opinion, the two of them should be like this! (To be continued.)
