Chapter 212 This is an old fox

After Long Yi left, no one in the meeting room spoke.

Seeing this, Shen Lang said to Jiang Wei, "Director Jiang, I'm so sorry. I just got here and I'm causing you trouble!"

Jiang Wei took a deep puff of his cigarette, feeling really depressed.

However, not all of them are directed at Shen Lang.

That's right, Shen Lang did give everyone a difficult problem, but he was very humble and spoke in a negotiating tone. It was obvious that Shen Lang was not here to cause trouble.

It seems that he really has his own ideas.

And what about Long Yi?

His behavior is understandable.

After all, for a writer, if anyone touches his manuscript, it's like killing his child.

Even Jiang Wei was very cautious when adapting and expanding the work.

But what do you, Long Yi, mean by turning around and leaving when you have a disagreement?
And before leaving, he emphasized that he was going to the crew of "Borrowing a Gun"!
Is this embarrassing for Shen Lang?

This is a slap in the face of him as a director and friend!
Jiang Wei felt uncomfortable, but he didn't want to show it in front of everyone, so he smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher Shen, you really gave me a big problem when you came here!"

At this moment, Wang Gang, who played Lu Qiaoshan, suddenly said, "Director Jiang, I have a small suggestion!"

Jiang Wei nodded and said, "Teacher Wang, go ahead!"

Wang Gang said: "I haven't had much contact with Mr. Shen. We just passed each other during the filming of In the Name of People. I didn't meet him, but I heard the director of the crew say that! It was the same situation at that time! Mr. Shen expressed some of his own opinions on Chen Qingquan!"

"As a result, I believe everyone already knows it!"

After hearing this, there was finally laughter in the conference room. Just kidding, who doesn’t know about learning a foreign language?

Wang Gang saw that the atmosphere was getting lively, so he smiled and said, "Why don't we ask Mr. Shen to speak out his thoughts, Director, and let us all help to make a decision. What do you think?"

"Yeah!"

"Teacher Wang, this is a good idea!"

Everyone nodded in agreement with Wang Gang's words.

Shen Lang also thought to himself: "He is a veteran actor after all. He has a lot of life both on and off the stage! Compared to him, I was not tactful enough in what I said just now!"

Jiang Wei also nodded and said, "Okay, I believe in Teacher Shen!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Lang clasped his hands together to express his gratitude to the director.

Wang Gang said: "Teacher Shen, please tell us about it!"

Shen Lang thought for a moment, nodded to everyone and said, "In fact, I respect Teacher Long and Director Jiang very much. The work "Live" is also the best spy-themed script I have ever seen."

Let me praise the director first.

Sure enough, Jiang Wei's expression became much gentler.

Shen Lang continued, "Especially what Teacher Long said just now. He said that I want to act in a different spy film. That's right!"

"So, what's the difference?"

"I just said that if Wu Jingzhong follows history, there will be no problem."

"But we are not a historical drama, we are a spy drama. In addition to the tense atmosphere, we also need to have our own artistic creation!"

"I would like to ask everyone here, what kind of role can be deeply rooted in people's hearts?"

This question stumped everyone present.

Sun Honglei said after careful consideration: "I think a successful role is one that allows the audience to identify with themselves!"

Shen Lang applauded and said, "Teacher Sun said it very well!"

Others nodded secretly at this time, especially Wang Gang. After listening, he also nodded and said, "Honglei said it very well. If the audience cannot empathize with the character, then the character is a failure. Let me add one more thing. To put it bluntly, the character must have life."

"No matter what era, a character is first and foremost a human being. As a human being, he has humanity!"

"As long as the character captures human nature, it will definitely be successful!"

……

After Wang Gang finished speaking, everyone present, starting with Shen Lang and Jiang Wei, applauded.

"Teacher Wang said it very well!"

"Teacher Wang is a senior after all!" "Here comes this time!"

……

Shen Lang saw the opportunity and struck while the iron was hot, saying, "Teacher Wang's words really touched my heart."

"Everyone thinks that Wu Jingzhong's character was originally an old revolutionary during the Northern Expedition, but the background of the story is that the Kuomintang is about to retreat to Wandao. Everyone can imagine, in this situation, can he still stick to his original beliefs?"

"He is a human being. Isn't he afraid of being held accountable after being caught?"

"He is a human being. Seeing so much corruption in the Kuomintang, wouldn't he be tempted?"

"He is a human being. Seeing his faith gradually falling into darkness, can he still maintain his original intention?"

These three questions made everyone present fall into deep thought.

Shen Lang said: "Director, colleagues, if we just talk about theory, you may not have a direct impression. Let me change the previous part on the spot, and everyone can help with the advice!"

"This is good!"

"Ah, Teacher Shen has a specific idea for the adaptation so quickly?"

"Yes, let's listen. I'm also curious about how Teacher Shen will change it!"

Jiang Wei heard this and nodded to Shen Lang: "Teacher Shen, please..."

Shen Lang already had a draft in mind. Seeing the director's approval, he immediately said, "Director, in the script, after Li Ya returned, Station Master Wu basically completed the construction of the Tianjin Station structure."

Jiang Wei nodded.

"Li Ya is in the front, responsible for making achievements; Yu Zecheng is hiding in the back, responsible for collecting money!"

"Then the question is, in our script, what is Wu Jingzhong's attitude towards Yu Zecheng, who is responsible for helping him collect money?"

"We are both defensive and afraid, but let's put ourselves in their shoes. If we had a good subordinate who brought money home every day, would we still treat him like this?"

"Obviously not! It's too one-dimensional!"

"So the balance between Li Ya and Yu Zecheng was broken. Facing the declining party-state, will Stationmaster Wu stick to his ideology or stick to his life?"

"Oh, to put it another way, is it to protect Li Ya or to protect Yu Zecheng?"

Jiang Wei nodded thoughtfully after hearing this and said, "You mean, Station Master Wu knew that Yu Zecheng was an undercover agent, but in order for Yu Zecheng to help him make money, he still deliberately protected Yu Zecheng."

Shen Lang smiled and said, "That's right! The director summarized it very well."

Jiang Wei lit up another cigarette with a puff of his tongue. This time, he was not confused at all. Instead, he said with interest, "This will make the TV series more interesting!"

Shen Lang pointed to a part of the script and said, "For example, here, if the director allows me to modify it, I will change it to..."

"Li Ya went to the 94th Army to deal with military corruption. He went there in high spirits and returned in a rage!"

"Go with joy, and return with bruises and bruises!"

"Then Stationmaster Wu got angry and threatened to severely punish Captain Xu who had hit someone!"

"But at this moment, Yu Zecheng appeared."

Shen Lang was writing on the script while reciting, "Just now, Adjutant Pang from the 94th Army came to see me! He mentioned something about Commander Xu!"

Wu Jingzhong said: "As for his case, let's meet in Nanjing! His crime is not light!"

Yu Zecheng: "Stationmaster, this is what I thought. Hasn't the report been submitted yet? Tianjin Station will temporarily detain him for a period of time. Chief of Staff Shen is willing to redeem him..."

At this point, Shen Lang said to everyone: "At this time, Wu Jingzhong did not change his expression, but his body leaned forward slightly on the sofa..."

"Adjutant Pang told me that Commander Xu has a car at home. Um, it's a Studebaker!"

"What kind?"

"You don't even know this? This is the kind Chennault used! It's new, just shipped from the Philippines! If you can raise your hand, the Xu family is willing to give you a car!"

"Humph! I'm not interested in cars. Xu is fine, but I should go to jail!"

Having said that, Shen Lang took a sip of water.

Sun Honglei, the actor who plays Yu Zecheng, asked anxiously, "What's going on down there? What's going on down there? This Station Master Wu...won't he eat the food that was fed to him?"

Shen Lang nodded: "Of course not, this is an old fox..."
