Chapter 353: The connection between the beginning and the end is wonderful
"The Legend of Su Qier" was put into filming.

Because Zhou Xingxing always wanted to be a director himself, he declined the team prepared for him by Jia Lan.

Instead, he flew back to Hong Kong Island to recruit crew members himself.

Shen Lang did not force it. He had been in a crew before and naturally knew how difficult it was to be a director.

The task issued by the system is to recruit Zhou Xingxing into the company. Although Zhou Xingxing is gradually moving away from this path, he is not in a hurry at all.

During this period, as a scriptwriter, he was on the crew of "The Imperial Doctress", explaining the script to the director and actors, and he couldn't spare the time to go to Hong Kong Island for the time being.

After Zhou Xingxing finally assembled the team, he quickly called Shen Lang to invite him to fly to Hong Kong Island, and the filming was about to start.

But Jing Cheng has just joined the crew, so he has to discuss the plot with the long-legged girl.

The two have been apart for such a long time, so they should at least give each other a chance to talk to each other.

On Hong Kong Island, Shen Lang had not arrived yet, but the crew was not waiting for anyone. Since Zhao Wuji didn't have many scenes, Stephen Chow announced the start of filming without waiting for Shen Lang.

It must be said that Stephen Chow is very talented as a director. In other movies, he often asks the director to add or reduce scenes, which can indeed elevate the plot of the movie.

The script of "The Legend of Su Qier", like other scripts, does not have a complete plot.

A lot of it requires the director and actors to improvise.

For example, when Su Can took part in the written examination for the top military scholar, the script only said that Senggelinqin's nephew cheated in the examination room, and Su Can even had the examiner change his paper for him.

But how to create an interesting plot depends on the director filling in the gaps based on the characteristics of the actors.

In fact, because the scripts drawn from Pandora's fan box are all original scripts of classic movies from various time and space, the script in Stephen Chow's hands now is exactly what it was when the movie was filmed!
What makes Zhou Xingxing so amazing is that even if Shen Lang told him the "ghostly" plot at the beginning, he was able to fill it in with a lot of reasonable plots on his own.

For example, when he was writing, the way he wielded the pen was like practicing martial arts, giving the feeling of "he was as fierce as a tiger at first, but turned out to be an idiot after all."

It makes people laugh.

For example, in order to get rid of Zhou Xingxing, Rushuang provoked him by saying, "Do you think it's so easy to be my husband?"

"My husband wants to be a martial arts master, a top scholar, second only to the emperor, and above everyone else. Can you do that?"

Finally, Zhou Xingxing was inspired and decided to move his family to Beijing to take part in the martial arts champion examination.

What did he tell his dad at home?

"I've decided to go to Beijing to take the exam for the top martial arts scholar!"

Wu Mengda slapped the bamboo chair and said excitedly: "Achan, Dad has been waiting for you to say this for 25 years! For the sake of the Su Chahar family, you should do this."

Su Can also patted the bamboo chair and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not doing this for anyone, I'm doing this for a woman!"

"A hero, died for a girl, died for a girl, went to Beijing to take the imperial examination for a girl, what girl is this?"

"Miss Rushuang, the golden medal prostitute of Yihong Courtyard!"

During the filming, Stephen Chow wrote the lines and designed the actions on the spot, and the whole audience burst into laughter.

This kind of line not only shows the absurdity of Su Can, but also shows the character of Su Can's father who unconditionally dotes on his child.

These are all closely related to the subsequent plot and can be said to be very important.

What makes Stephen Chow so great is that he can not only lay the groundwork for the main plot, but also make the plot interesting.

But after filming for a while, Zhou Xingxing's lack of experience became a problem.

Because he was a new director, he had only a vague understanding of many technical issues on the set.

He had considered this and had asked director Chen Jiashang, with whom he had worked before, to join the crew and help for a while.

But Chen Jiashang was unable to make the trip due to some matters. Coincidentally, Wang Jingjing, who had just finished filming a scene, came to the crew to [visit] Wu Mengda, and she offered to stay and help.

Even though Wang Jingjing had expressed some dissatisfaction with Zhou Xingxing in a tactful way before, the circle is so small that everyone is still very polite when they meet.

Zhou Xingxing was very grateful to Wang Jingjing for her help.

After helping to deal with technical issues, Wang Jingjing watched two scenes.

At this time, the crew was filming the scenes before Su Can fell into poverty, so the focus was still on comedy.

After watching it, Wang Jingjing felt that the level of the Oscar-winning screenwriter was just so-so, and he was just using Zhou Xingxing's talent to make people laugh.

But when he saw that in the script, Su Can became a beggar because of cheating in the exam, Wang Jingjing frowned.

"Mr. Shen's script is very good and can bring out your strengths, Xingzai, but there is a problem..." Wang Jingjing raised the question when Stephen Chow invited her to dinner in the evening!
Before Zhou Xingxing could speak, Wu Mengda, who was present, asked with a smile, "What's wrong? What's the problem?"

Wang Jingjing said: "Xingzai, your biggest advantage and the face most familiar to the audience is that you can play a character in a very funny way!"

"Since this is a script built around you, some repression is fine, but it can't be too tragic!"

"Look at this script, it's too miserable. He becomes a beggar, and is not welcomed by anyone. In the end, Zhao Wuji breaks his limbs and makes him a cripple!"

"This routine is not bad, but it is obviously not suitable for you!"

"For a script that suits you, there should be low points in the whole play, but they cannot exceed 20%!"

Zhou Xingxing had already discussed this with Shen Lang.

At this moment, although he was still nodding in front of others, he felt a little disapproving in his heart.

He wanted to adapt it, but Wang Jingjing still constrained herself with her old perspective.

Seeing that he remained silent, Wang Jingjing knew that he didn't listen.

The next day, the crew was filming the scene where Su Qier met Rushuang again in the capital.

This scene tells the story of Su Can's father being sick, and Su Can going out to beg in the heavy snow.

Feeling cold and hungry, he happened to be sitting in front of Rushuang's house.

Next, the script does not describe the development of the plot in detail.

It’s just that here, Su Can lost his self-esteem and couldn’t hold his head up in front of the person he once admired.

How to lose self-esteem?

What plot connection is used in the middle?
The script wasn’t written.

And this is the most important part. Here, Su Can’s depressed life will become bright again!
Zhou Xingxing thought about it for a long time but couldn't come up with a good plot. It just so happened that Shen Lang was going to fly to Hong Kong Island today, so he planned to wait for Shen Lang to come before studying it together.

But at this time, Wang Jingjing on the side gave her own solution.

"The downtrodden champion is in a state of despair!"

"When she saw her lover begging, Rushuang fed him dog food just to stimulate and inspire him!"

……

Wang Jingjing's design immediately won applause from many crew members, and even Wu Mengda felt that this design was very consistent with Rushuang's character.

Before in Yihongyuan, Rushuang had provoked Su Can.

When Su Can was at his lowest point in life, Rushuang encouraged him again!
Echoed around!

"wonderful!!!!"
