Screenwriter Cheng Shisan is also aware of the current situation of the crew.
He also knew how much pressure Li Huizhu was under now.
In a flash of thought, he soon understood Li Huizhu's thoughts.
So he immediately frowned and thought:
"It's not impossible to change the script, but the beginning of the filming cannot be changed."
"If we want to change it, we can only significantly reduce the main plot between Ning Caichen and Xiaoqian later and expand the branch plot."
As a talented screenwriter who can write creative scripts such as "I Have a Date with a Zombie", Cheng Shisan is naturally not lacking in talent.
Therefore, even though he is currently facing the situation of making changes while filming, he still has no fear at all.
But Li Huizhu still frowned when she heard this.
"It's okay to reduce the main plot and expand the branch plots, but TV dramas must have a main plot!"
"Otherwise it will all be a side plot, and it will be useless no matter how exciting we make the supporting characters!"
For a while, the two of them were discussing modifications to the script in the room.
In the end, the two finally came up with a preliminary modification plan:
Add drama, give the supporting actors a lot of drama!
Zhuge Liuyun and Yan Hongye, Lan Mo and Zhuge Qingtian, Yan Chixia and Sima Sanniang.
Anyway, as long as the supporting characters can form a pair, give them extra scenes.
Of course, the biggest changes are those of Qiye and Xiaoqian!
Originally, according to the original script, the character of the Seven Night Demon was just an intellectual big brother.
Just like the school sweetheart in idol dramas, he will always silently guard the heroine and become a warm boy like Doraemon.
It's just that the situation is different now. When the male protagonist fails to live up to his expectations, the screenwriter can only make the warm man darker.
In this way, the darkened warm man can just support the responsibilities that originally belonged to the male protagonist.
To be honest, when considering this issue, Cheng Shisan did not include his views on the actors at all, and purely thought about it from the perspective of script structure.
After all, not all supporting characters can support the position of the leading actor!
Of course, if the revision continues according to this idea, Ning Caichen will naturally not be able to have a happy ending with Nie Xiaoqian as before, otherwise the logic of the entire script will collapse.
So Cheng Shisan simply let his imagination run wild and let Qiye and Xiaoqian die together under Ning Caichen's arrows and embrace each other.
But at this moment, no matter from which angle you look at it, Qiye is more like the leading actor than Ning Caichen!
After the discussion between the director and screenwriter ended, everyone in the room was stunned.
Jiang Zhe couldn't help but look at the half-dead Chen Xiaodong on the bed with grateful eyes!
Brother Dong, he is such a good man, sacrifice him and help the whole crew! Tsk tsk~ What a good man!
At the same time, the other actors looked at Chen Xiaodong in the same way, except Nie Yuan.
Facing such a result, Chen Xiaodong must have felt uncomfortable.
It's just that he was worried about being picked on by Yang Daokui because he delayed the filming progress of the crew.
Therefore, no matter how aggrieved he felt at the moment, he could only force a smile to show his generosity.
No, he still has to thank Jiang Zhe and others.
After all, Jiang Zhe and others helped him clean up the mess.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaodong's face looked awkward.
Seeing Jiang Zhe was so refreshing, it was even more refreshing than drinking a bottle of iced Coke in the summer!
As soon as Jiang Zhe and his party left the room, they heard the assistant in the room shouting in a panic:
"Come here quickly~ Brother Dong has fainted, doctor~ doctor~"
After hearing this, Jiang Zhe and Wu Jing immediately looked at each other and smiled in tacit agreement.
Haha~ They were really right, it seems that men can’t be too cautious!
…
Three days later, Dali Tianlong Babu Film and Television City.
After a short break, Chen Xiaodong finally appeared on the set again.
Of course, the crew has not been idle these three days.
In addition to filming fragmentary plots that have nothing to do with the main plot, screenwriter Cheng Shisan finally came up with a revised version of the script.
And now is the first scene after everyone got the new script!
This time, Jiang Zhe finally changed into a black dress with long sleeves and a long robe.
He no longer held a long sword in his hand, but sat casually on the rockery with a wine bottle in his hand, slightly decadently.
As for Chen Xiaodong, he looked like his parents were dead, his eyes were lifeless, and he was sitting sloppily in the corner.
All in all, even if the two don't speak, the audience can probably guess who the protagonist is.
Chen Xiaodong was heartbroken and resigned to his fate.
There is no other way, unless he doesn't even want his life anymore, otherwise he can only accept the arrangement of the crew.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel sad.
So with this emotion, his performance was much better than before.
…
As the recorder left the field, Chen Xiaodong stared blankly ahead and said with a dejected expression:
"Maybe you are the one who can give Xiaoqian happiness, not me!"
"...If you say what you just said again, I will kill you immediately!"
Jiang Zhe, who had never been harsh and talkative, was as cold as ever this time.
Only this time, Chen Xiaodong was not frightened anymore and seemed to be lying down.
"Take Xiaoqian away, please..."
Regarding this behavior of begging his love rival to take away his beloved woman, Chen Xiaodong didn't know how the screenwriter came up with it.
Anyway, he always feels like he is cuckolding himself.
Therefore, the frustration and helplessness in his eyes at this moment were not entirely staged.
After seeing this scene, Li Huizhu behind the monitor finally nodded slightly.
After filming for so long, this guy finally gave her a little surprise!
At the same time, although Jiang Zhe was a little surprised by Chen Xiaodong's sudden extraordinary performance.
However, he was not panicked at all, but instead felt a little excited about meeting his opponent.
Even under Chen Xiaodong's sneak attack, Jiang Zhe was forced to break through and perform beyond his abilities!
Jiang Zhe lay on his back and drank the wine in the pot in one gulp, letting the wine flow on his clothes.
After casually smashing the wine bottle, Jiang Zhe finally took off his cold mask.
"If I can give Xiaoqian happiness, do you think I will give her to you?"
"If I can do it... After so many years, Xiaoqian has become the happiest little fox fairy in the world and the queen of the Yinyue Dynasty. If she still needs to find true love, will she meet you again?"
"And you dare to say give up! I really want to kill you, I really want to!"
In this long almost monologue performance, Jiang Zhe's eyes changed from sadness to disappointment, and from disappointment to anger. He almost perfectly interpreted the psychological changes of the character with his eyes.
And this kind of performance level is progressive layer by layer, rather than a simple expression transformation.
When she saw this scene, Li Huizhu immediately forgot about Chen Xiaodong just now, and quickly whispered to the photographer on the side:
"Quick, push it up, that's right, okay, let's do another close-up!"
When he saw photographers circling Jiang Zhe, eager to take a 360-degree close-up of him, Chen Xiaodong finally broke his guard.
Originally, there was no need for crying in this scene, but suddenly he burst into tears and burst into tears.
With such an appearance, the actors outside the scene were inexplicably shocked.
I still can't figure it out, when did Chen Xiaodong, who has mediocre acting skills, become so good at crying scenes?
However, Li Huizhu behind the monitor was elated when she saw this.
She didn't expect that these two good people would actually get into trouble.
So due to a strange combination of circumstances, the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story" continued filming in a way that made people laugh...
