The King of Soft Rice in Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 124 I don’t know what she is thinking

The depth line set by Xu Jiuyang - let's call it that - is also very simple. It is to make a comparison. During the Warring States Period, the seven countries were at war, the people were living in dire straits, and a large number of people could not survive. However, it was impossible for the seven countries to stop the war, so it is better to suffer a short pain than a long pain, and let Qin unify the world.

Therefore, Canjian, who realized this, finally hid his identity and became a farmer in the original Zhao land. He only tried to persuade Wuming after he came to him.

But he still died under the other party's sword on his own initiative. The reason was naturally the reversal later. The reason why Wuming still had to assassinate King Zheng of Qin after agreeing with Canjian's statement was because he did not see how good the lives of the people were along the way.

In other words, although the country was unified, there was no more war and production could be resumed, but taxes and corvee labor were still the same, and Qin laws were extremely harsh.

To put it bluntly, there are so many black spots on the First Emperor that one can easily find well-founded arguments. However, these screenwriters in the mainland entertainment circle are too lazy to do their homework and are self-righteous. Whether it is "The Song of Qin" or "The Emperor and the Assassin", they all portray the First Emperor as a pervert, a lunatic, or even a psychopath.

Of course, Xu Jiuyang also knew why they portrayed him this way, and why after "Hero" was released in his previous life, they said that the movie was whitewashing Ying Zheng, and expressed dissatisfaction with this.

There's no need to worry about it. The highest virtue is to establish merit, the next is to establish merit, and the next is to establish words. This, even if it endures for a long time, is what we call immortality. The teacher has achieved merit, words, and virtue. As long as this civilization continues, he will be a monument that history will never be able to avoid, and there will inevitably be people who will study and understand him.

Then, as long as these people have a deep understanding and as long as they have a conscience, they will know where they stand.

Of course, there will definitely be ambitious people who will try to misinterpret his words, just like Confucianism after Confucius, but so what? As long as that monument cannot be avoided, the sun will eventually rise as usual one day. This is the law of history.

"Stop, you are just a script doctor. You are just diagnosing the problems of "Hero". Don't think divergently." Xu Jiuyang, who had already returned home, slapped his face and continued to draw a mind map on paper.

In short, the setting of being an unknown person from Zhao can be retained. So even though he accepted the statement about the broken sword, he had to stab with the sword because of national hatred, family feuds, and the life of his friend.

"Well, we can also let Wuming question King Zheng of Qin in the hall and use... military law. After all, those who surrounded the hall are all soldiers. If someone in the same squad died in battle, the others will be punished as well." Xu Jiuyang said, scratching his head.

Although there are many different interpretations of this law, this is not a documentary. As long as it is one of the mainstream statements, it will be fine. If it is really controversial, the worst that can happen is that Ying Zheng will come out to refute it.

If you think it is inappropriate to let Ying Zheng refute, then add another person to his side, such as Li Si or Feng Quji, to come out with the soldiers and refute.

It was this line… Xu Jiuyang began to feel a little painful, and finally clapped his hands: "None of my business, I'm just a script doctor, sorting out the storyline, I don't even have a credit. Things like polishing the lines, shouldn't that be the job of the screenwriters?"

That's it, then. You can send it to Angela... Oh, and the character of Ruyue, that's easy, just change her to Canjian's country wife, etc., in this way...

Xu Jiuyang thought about it, then took out his phone and dialed: "Mr. Fan, are you free now?"

"If you need anything, you have to wait until after 5 o'clock. I'm at school now." Fan Qiaoqiao said over there.

This sentence made Xu Jiuyang stuck for a few seconds. He completely forgot that no matter whether it was Fan Qiaoqiao, Gao Yuanyuan, or Li Yunxin, they were still college students.

Well, Gao Yuanyuan and Li Yunxin will both graduate this year. One is a well-known beautiful writer, and the other is the youngest daughter of the Samsung Lee family. It is normal for them to have plenty of time to themselves.

As for Fan Qiaoqiao, Beijing Film Academy is notoriously lax in its management, and she is a national idol. Even if she graduates next year, the school will have no control over her. They may even grant her every request because she helped to make Yang Xing, Yin Tao, and Wan Qian famous.

Hey, this kind of thing should obviously be done by me, a reborn person, why did it happen to them? With this thought in his mind, he kept talking: "I have a movie role, are you interested?"

"Wow, wow, classmate Xu is actually being approached by a film crew? He's not a scammer, is he?" Fan Qiaoqiao's tone was full of teasing.

"It shouldn't be that serious, Director Zhang Yimou," Xu Jiuyang said calmly, "and I'm not acting as a role, I'm just helping to sort out the script."

"Ah?" Fan Qiaoqiao on the other side asked a question full of doubt after a pause.

"I adjusted the story line and redesigned the character traits. You don't have to think about the female lead, but you can still give it a try for the supporting actress." Xu Jiuyang said.

"Is it... the movie called "Hero"? " Fan Qiaoqiao asked after a pause.

Xu Jiuyang was surprised and wanted to ask how she knew, but then he thought, this movie has been in preparation since last year, and she is now a national idol, so she must be more informed than in her previous life, so it is normal for her to know.

"Yes, but don't tell anyone." He replied.

"Wait, I'll be there soon... No, you go to the company, I'll be back right away." Fan Qiaoqiao said and hung up the phone.

Xu Jiuyang blinked in confusion. Something didn't seem right. They had spent quite a bit of time together and had even had close contact. She didn't seem like someone who cared so much about the movie script.

In other words, she cares, but she is definitely not the kind of person who would compromise herself for a role. Otherwise, the heroine of Stephen Chow's "Shaolin Soccer" should be her, not Karen Mok.

Without thinking too much, he packed up, took the script and drove to Xingyao Films.

After waiting in the office for a while, Fan Qiaoqiao rushed in with Qin Lan.

"Tell me what happened." After sending the secretary away, she sat down in front of him with a serious expression, "Tell me everything from beginning to end, without missing a single word."

"It shouldn't be so serious," Xu Jiuyang said, somewhat puzzled. "I'm just helping a friend, a boss I know, to look at Zhang Yimou's script and help sort out the story. Why is it being made into such a big deal?"

"I am..." Fan Qiaoqiao showed an impatient expression, then swallowed back his thoughts. Finally, he held his hand, making himself look concerned. "I'm worried about you. You're not famous right now, so how could such a good thing happen to you? If you're being too attentive to me for no reason, you're either a traitor or a thief!"

She was practically writing the words "I'm afraid you'll be kidnapped" on her face, and Xu Jiuyang was too embarrassed to argue anymore: "Let me think about where to start... Forget it, let's start from last July, when I first came to Beijing."

He spent about ten minutes describing in detail how he met Angela, how he gave her advice, how he met her again because of Li Yunxin, and how he helped serve as the script doctor for "Hero" at her invitation. He also explained what a script doctor was.

"I don't know what that angel lady was thinking, but I can make money and interfere with Zhang Yimou's big production. I thought it was very interesting, so I agreed." Xu Jiuyang said finally.
