Chapter 14 Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes (please follow up)

At the entrance of the Grand View Garden on the North Second Ring Road, Chen Shiping took out his work ID and went in.

After entering, Chen Shiping was attracted by the scenery inside. In the spring season, the flowers and plants inside were extremely beautiful.

The antique buildings built exactly according to the Red Mansions are beautiful. Especially when Chen Shiping saw the actors in ancient costumes walking through it, he really felt like he was traveling through time.

Especially when I saw Tao Huimin standing under the peach blossom tree, I really felt like I was seeing Sister Lin.

Chen Shiping looked at Tao Huimin, who was carrying a small hoe and hanging a bamboo basket, and immediately knew that what he was photographing today was Daiyu's funeral.

It was a coincidence today that I could see such a classic scene. Chen Shiping walked around to Xie Tieli holding the book and was now narrating a play.

Seeing Chen Shiping coming, several people took the initiative to say hello, and Tao Huimin also nodded softly to Chen Shiping.

This is in the character, but Tao Huimin's version of Sister Lin doesn't have the feeling of Lin Daodong.

Her performance feels more like a cute and cute little daughter, which is completely different from Chen Xiaoxu's aloof, sensitive, weak and yandere attitude.

If you really want to talk about it, Chen Shiping prefers Lin Daodong's feeling, but Tao Huimin's appearance is more than superior.

Chen Shiping happened to take advantage of the crew to rest and handed Mr. Xie the script he had revised and the contemporary magazine he bought.

"Mr. Xie, this is the script I just finished revising." Chen Shiping said with a smile.

Mr. Xie did not read the script but was very interested in the contemporary magazine handed over by Chen Shiping. He glanced at the catalog and said with a smile: "Is it published? Just take a look."

Chen Shiping smiled and nodded, and gave the extra copy to Xie Tieli.

Xie Tieli also took the magazine and said with interest: "I just want to see what the novel is like."

Chen Shiping looked at the two remaining books in his hand and turned to give them to Sister Lin and Baoyu.

Tao Huimin hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it, and he and Xia Qing got together to open the magazine.

These days, they are very curious about what Chen Shiping wrote.

At this time, the crew was resting, and Xie Tieli was fascinated by the contemporary movie while holding it in his arms.

Chen Shiping is also happy with this. The more the boss likes him, the better. This way, there will be opportunities for promotion and salary increase.

Mr. Xie read the novel for a while and then put it down. He picked up the script that Chen Shiping had revised and started discussing it with him.

"The changes are good, but there are still many problems. For example, the Great Famine sequence needs to be appropriately weakened, especially the ending sequence. It would not be good for Xu Sanguan to be in pain alone on the street. It would be better to be brighter."

Chen Shiping said humbly: "I still don't have enough experience. Then I will go back and revise it. I will come back to you tomorrow for advice."

Mr. Xie closed the script while holding a cigarette and said: "It's okay, take your time, just in time to see the response after the novel is published. If the response is good, maybe the script won't need to be changed."

After the two chatted for a few more words, Chen Shiping took the initiative to turn the topic to the script of Red Mansions. He couldn't use the excuse of asking Xu Sanguan for advice on the script every time.

It would be best if you can participate in the creation of the Red Mansion script and finally add your name to the screenwriter column!

One Hundred and Twenty Chapters of Red Mansion was compressed into six parts and eight episodes. There were too many things that needed to be changed, and the version that was continued by Gao E was used.

Some of the characters in the book have been changed significantly, and Mr. Xie and Xie Tieli are also feeling melancholy.

After Chen Shiping read the script for a while, he discovered several problems.

“Mr.

"There is also the scene where Miaoyu appears. A separate scene takes up a lot of space, and Miaoyu's own role is not important. It is better to introduce it in the poem where Baodai talks, so that the rhythm of the plot will be more compact."

Chen Shiping pointed to the line in the script that was full of meaning, and said, "Quiet, beautiful and beautiful."

"This is a good idea!" Xie Tieli, who had been reading, suddenly said.

Chen Shiping turned around and saw that he had put down the contemporary magazine.

Mr. Xie thought about it for a while and felt that this idea was a good one, so he nodded with a smile and said, "Shi Ping, you have a very sharp mind. You are a good candidate to be a screenwriter, but you just don't want to change your script carefully." His face turned red when he said that, and all his little thoughts were seen through.

Xie Tieli laughed and said, "I don't want to change my own things. After reading the novel, I understand Shi Ping's thoughts. The writing is really good. It would be a waste to change the script at all!"

Mr. Xie adjusted his glasses, wrote down Chen Shiping's comments in his notebook, and said, "It's true that your children are different from others."

After chatting for a few words about the script, Chen Shiping didn't have any other opinions. If he spoke too much, he would not give the leader face, but he had to speak, otherwise he would not be able to highlight his talents.

Other suggestions will be less abrupt if you wait until there are more people in the meeting.

Soon the crew was about to shoot again. While the crew was preparing, Tao Huimin also put down the magazine in his hand and looked at Chen Shiping with complicated inquiry in his eyes.

How could such a frivolous person write such profound things? The sadness and humor in the writing are so well blended that it makes people sad and infected by Xu Sanguan's strength.

"You write really well." Tao Huimin hesitated for a while but couldn't help but took the initiative to talk to Chen Shiping.

Chen Shiping smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment. I will give you another copy when I publish the book later. It is not easy to have a star reader."

"Xiao Tao, come here to film!"

Director Xie called out in the distance, and Tao Huimin didn't bother talking to Chen Shiping anymore, acquiescing that Chen Shiping would give him a book next time.

Chen Shiping couldn't help but smile when he saw Tao Huimin walking into the peach blossom forest carrying a small hoe. This was a connection, and he didn't have to take the initiative to apologize for his previous behavior.

However, when Chen Shiping turned around, he saw Mr. Xie looking at him with a half-smile, and Chen Shiping immediately showed a simple and honest smile.

"What a ghost!" Mr. Xie cursed with a smile, and took the initiative to ask Chen Shiping to come over and discuss the script of Red Mansions with him.

Although Chen Shiping is not a Hong Kong scholar, as a very spiritual screenwriter, he can come up with many interesting ideas.

There are many people in the drama team of Red Mansion. Chen Shiping's sudden addition made many people feel a little grudge.

Everyone wants to gain favor in front of the leadership and add their name to the screenwriter column.

Chen Shiping's sudden appearance gave them a sense of crisis and competition.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there is no way to avoid this.

Chen Shiping didn't care either, but in the subsequent discussions, whenever he made suggestions, he would be refuted.

I can't believe that Chen Shiping was so popular when he first came here. Everyone wanted to stand out, so there was no reason why you, a latecomer, should be surpassed.

"I think Xiao Chen's suggestion just now is not good. Sister Feng's image has already been set. It will not be good if she changes it later!"

"Yes, Xiao Chen's suggestion is still inappropriate. Mother Jia and Sister Feng have become scheming villains."

Chen Shiping felt very uncomfortable as he listened to them talking about each other. They were just implying that he was a newcomer and had no qualifications.

"If you don't change it, the character will have no sense of existence and be confused. If you want everything, the final result will be nothing!"

Chen Shiping was also used to them and said directly: "If this is the case, then it is better to make a TV series and just follow the TV series version!"

After listening for a while, Mr. Xie said directly: "Stop arguing, let's wait for Director Xie to make the decision."

Chen Shiping is still very confident in his suggestions. He has seen the movie version of Red Mansions and knows what Sister Feng's image is like. There is a high probability that his suggestions will be adopted.

After a while, I finished writing the scene and came back. After listening to Mr. Xie talk about the controversy just now, he thought for a while and said: "Shi Ping's suggestion is very good. The duration of the movie is limited, and it is inevitable to create characters." To be more intuitive, let’s change it according to Shi Ping’s suggestion.”

After Director Xie made the decision, everyone else stopped talking. What else could they do but watch Chen Shiping steal the show?

However, some people still felt uncomfortable and deliberately applied eye drops and said: "Xiao Chen provided very good suggestions as soon as he came. I think your name will appear in the screenwriter column together with Mr. Xie and Director Xie!"
