Chapter 304 Train to Busan
The next day, Shen Lang sent the outline of the story of "Train to Busan" to South Korea.
I'm sorry, but for a friend like Ning Hao, I'll give you the whole script, no problem.
But when it comes to South Korea, Shen Lang is very careful to avoid risks.
After all, this country has some small blessings, no, some small shortcomings!
When Park Dehuan received the script outline via email, he found that it was just a few sheets of paper.
Looking at it again, it turned out to be a story outline and a description of the plot.
"Those idiots in the Ministry of Culture have made the Chinese people paranoid. The Republic of China now has no credibility in the international community!" Park Dehuan cursed some of the idiots in South Korea with great sorrow.
After cursing, he looked at the story outline sent by Shen Lang.
"Early in the morning, passengers boarded the train to Busan for various reasons. The protagonist, a fund manager, was busy with work on weekdays, which caused the breakdown of his family and lacked care for his daughter. On his daughter's birthday, he even brought back a birthday gift that was the same as the Children's Day gift!"
Seeing this, Park Dehuan didn't think there was anything special about this script.
However, as a veteran filmmaker, he never dares to underestimate such ordinary plots.
In the world of movies, a small thing is often the trigger for the entire movie plot to explode.
Sure enough, the protagonist's daughter Xiu'an insisted on going to Busan to visit her mother. The protagonist Shi Yu had to put aside his work and board the train in the early morning, and fortunately he arrived back to the company at noon.
Park Dehuan looked at the synopsis and said to himself, "This character is not likable! It's even a bit disgusting. If he were paired with a cute child in a movie, this lead actor would probably be criticized by the audience!"
"If a person doesn't pay attention to his family and only focuses on work, what's the difference between such a person and a robot? He has no emotions at all!"
The dull beginning, the unlikable characters, and Shen Lang's script outline made Park Dehuan frown.
"At the same time, extremely suspicious riots broke out all over the city. The government tried its best to whitewash the situation but failed to cover up the fact that zombies were rampant. Even the ignorant train passengers fell into a hell of panic and despair because of the arrival of the uninvited guests."
Seeing this, Park Dehuan's brows relaxed. He smiled and whispered, "Let's get to the point!"
"When the train started, Xiu'an saw a strange scene, but no one believed her. At the same time, a person with strange behavior boarded the train without being noticed. She soon turned into a corpse and started a bloody massacre of healthy people wherever she saw."
"It creates a plot that could have been avoided but everyone neglects it. Hmm, it starts to build up the audience's emotions! There's something!"
"It wasn't long before the number of zombies exploded exponentially. Shi Yu was forced to struggle for survival with the surviving passengers in a cramped space. The long journey to Busan was full of murderous intentions, and the humanity of each survivor was also put to a huge test in times of crisis..."
Seeing this, Park Dehuan scrolled down his mouse and said, "That's all? This, that's all? Why not include some of the things that happened in the confined space like the carriage?"
"Ah! That's it..."
Park Dehuan was almost going crazy, so he had to scold those guys from the Ministry of Culture again.
Fortunately, Shen Lang also gave a plot clip.
Fragment one:
Shi Yu's bedroom at night
Shiyu takes off his coat and his mother sits on the bed and looks at him.
Shi Yu’s mother: Are you busy lately?
Shi Yu: It has always been like this.
Shi Yu's mother: Have you agreed to go to Busan with Xiu An tomorrow?
Shi Yu: Yeah.
Shi Yu's mother held a DV in her hand: That's great. This time I go to Busan, and meet Na Young... meet Na Young, have a meal and have a good talk. The relationship between husband and wife is not so easy to cut off. Think about Xiu An too.
Shi Yu: Mom, I will take care of it myself. Because these are very important times.
Shi Yu's mother: That's right. You are an adult, you will definitely figure it out. Xiu An was very sad because you didn't come to the school meeting during the day. For Xiu An, this is also a very important period.
Shi Yu's mother put the DV on the bed and left the room. Shi Yu thought about what his mother said and looked at the DV on the bed. He picked it up and saw Xiu An's solo performance at the school meeting in the daytime.
——"Black clouds covered the blue sky..."
Shi Yu smiled as he watched the video.
——"Even if the day of separation comes, once again..."
In the video, Xiu'an forgot the words. Although the teacher encouraged her, the children still laughed and Xiu'an looked flustered. Shi Yu felt extremely guilty when he saw this.
Park Dehuan, a member of the Green Snake Award jury in South Korea, narrowed his eyes when he saw this. A good movie would be a failure if it was all fighting and zombies biting people from beginning to end.
What to do with good works?
First, you have to create the breath of life, then break it, and finally step on it hard!
Now, Shen Lang has obviously begun to create an atmosphere of life.
and……
"The lyrics of the little girl are very interesting. Black clouds cover the blue sky. Even if the day of separation comes..."
"It feels like something bad is about to happen!"
……
Scene two:
The zombie virus spread in the carriage, and Shi Yu and his child had just experienced a thrilling scene.
Unexpectedly, my mother who stayed in Seoul called me.
Shi Yu: Mom!
Shi Yu's mother sounded unwell, and it seemed that she was calling before she died.
Mom: "Shiyu, are you all right?"
Shi Yu: Are you on your way? Where are you and why are you making so much noise?
……
"Mom, what's with that breathing noise? Are you hurt?"
"Mom, are you okay?"
Shi Yu's mother began to breathe rapidly: "My Xiu An... I love her so much... but she only wants to find her mother (painful groan)... Damn bastards..."
The phone is disconnected!
Shi Yu: "Mom?"
Shi Yu put down the phone sadly.
Xiu'an: "Is grandma okay?"
Shi Yu looked at Xiu An, his face was shocked and unacceptable. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to describe it to the child. Xiu An seemed to have noticed it too...
“Haha, I knew it!” Park Dehuan slapped his thigh excitedly. “Shi Yu’s mother must have been bitten by zombies in the fallen Seoul! Shen Lang, this guy, is starting to destroy the beauty!”
Scene three:
Passengers Tu Po Po and Zhong Ji came over, and Xiu An gave her chair to Tu Po Po: "Grandma, come over here and sit!"
Granny Tu: "You better sit down."
Xiu'an: "No, let grandma sit!"
Granny Tu sat on a chair and took out some candy to thank Xiu'an.
……
Shi Yu pulled Xiu'an aside and said, "Xiu'an, you don't have to do this!"
Xiu'an looked at his father in confusion: "What?"
Shi Yu: "You don't need to give up your position. In an emergency, you are the most important. Do you understand?"
Xiu'an looked at Shiyu strangely.
Shi Yu: “Answer me!”
Xiu'an lowered her head and said sadly, "Grandma also often has knee pain!"
……
Seeing this, Park Dehuan burst into tears: "Little Xiu'an has already guessed that her grandmother has met with an accident, and she gave her love for her grandmother to the passengers!"
"It's so well written. I originally thought that Shen Lang would describe the story in the rhythm of building up beauty - breaking beauty - stepping on it."
“I didn’t expect that he was still using some details to pull at the audience’s emotions!”
"I'm really looking forward to seeing how Shen Lang cruelly steps on this beauty. It should be in scene four, scene four..."
"(Kazasi), scene four is not given..., ah... (Xiba)!"
"Yes, yes, yes, call Ting Xianghao right away, he will definitely be interested in this script!"
