Writing about entertainment was approached by a female villain archetype

Chapter 217 I would call it a unique skill

The screening room for "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was almost boiling.

I was still thinking whether it was a bit inappropriate for Xu Chuan to "blackout" Bai Tianyu in the movie.

Well now, Bai Tianyu has made a guest appearance.

In an instant, the "black" Bai Tianyu's behavior turned into a strong plot effect.

Some of the audience at the scene were discussing excitedly, some were scratching their heads and thought it was "ridiculous", and some couldn't wait to pick up their mobile phones to reveal spoilers. The performances were all different.

Of course, this is just the beginning.

In the original plot, Leehom Wang sang a total of two songs, one called "Need Someone to Accompany" and the other called "I Can't Miss You".

These two songs are both Wang Leehom's classics, and the quality is needless to say.Moreover, the functions of these two songs in the play are relatively clear.

First, a slow-paced song like "Need Someone to Accompany" brought out the ambiguous feeling between Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu.

Originally Wang Duoyu didn't like Xia Zhu, but he just wanted to have a reason to spend more money.But everyone knows that falling in love with someone often only requires the moment of heartbeat.

At this moment, Wang Duoyu was obviously a little moved.

The fast-paced "I Can't Miss You" is to quickly show the love process between Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu.

Therefore, Xu Chuan retained these two songs in the movie and gave them to Bai Tianyu to sing.

In other words, the original singer of "Need Someone to Accompany" and "I Can't Miss You" on Blue Star is Bai Tianyu.This was considered a reward for him coming to guest star in the movie, and it was also a gesture of goodwill.

After all, this guy is the second best young male singer in the country, so it would be best if we could unite him around.

The most important thing is that this guy appeared in Xu Chuan's movie and sang the song Xu Chuan wrote for him.This kind of drama, to say nothing of it, would have given this movie a box office increase of 5000 million.

The reaction of the audience in the theater at this time well proved this point.

When everyone watched Tian Tianyu sitting in front of the piano, playing and singing a song that no one had heard of, but it was quite nice.Many viewers immediately realized where this song came from.

"Isn't this a new song written by Xu Chuan for Bai Tianyu?"

"Fuck, this is okay!"

"No, aren't they enemies? Is there something wrong with my memory?"

"Just tell me whether you like it or not."

"Be sure to have more. This movie was so fun to shoot."

The audience was discussing, and Bai Tianyu on the big screen had already started singing the second song "I Can't Miss You".

As I just said, this is a happy song.Therefore, the scenes filmed are naturally joyful interactions on and off stage.

Ever since, scenes that surprised the audience began to appear one after another.

First, Tian Yu sang and danced on the stage, and then Wang Duoyu, played by Xu Chuan, was as excited as a fan.

Just this one shot, you can’t say that ordinary viewers wouldn’t dare to think about it.Even if fans of Bai Tianyu come, they would not dare to plan such a scene.

"Ouch, I can't do it anymore, hahahahaha, this scene is so weird."

"Actually, this scene wouldn't be a laughing matter for anyone else. The problem is that it's so funny when Brother Chuan and Bai Tianyu act it like this. I declare that the most classic scene in this movie has appeared."

Facts have proved that it is still too early for the audience to speak.

Because right after, an even more outrageous scene is about to appear in front of everyone.

In the picture, Bai Tianyu on the stage was "passionately interacting" with Wang Duoyu and his group in the audience. They had regular support items such as light signs and fluorescent sticks in their hands.

Among these regular aids, there is one that is not so regular.

What does this thing look like?
A stick about 50 centimeters long, with a large number of filaments hanging down from the top.The filament is about 70 centimeters long. Because there is a light at the connection place, the filament is glowing.

This thing was specially made by Xu Chuan from the props team.

As for the name, everyone on the crew calls it "Cyber ​​Whisk".

The audience can actually easily tell that this thing is a light whisk.

This cyber whisk was in the hands of Wang Duoyu, played by Xu Chuan, one second ago, but during the interaction the next second, he handed it to Bai Tianyu on the stage.

Tian Tianyu took it and instinctively looked at the cyber whisk in his hand.The camera then cut to a close-up of his face. Bai Tianyu's expression was really difficult to describe in words.

It is worth mentioning that considering Bai Tianyu's acting skills, Xu Chuan did not tell him about this incident before filming this scene.

In other words, Bai Tianyu's expression at this moment was completely a true reaction.Precisely because it was a real reaction, the effect of this scene was explosive.

why?

Why else!
Tian Tianyu is nicknamed "Music Mage".

Now, the music mage meets the cyberwhisk.

Damn it if it doesn't explode.

"Pfft~ Hahahahahahahahaha." At this moment, the ceiling of the theater was almost overturned by the audience's laughter.

It can be said that this is the loudest laugh the audience has ever seen in the entire movie.

"Unique skill, this is really a fucking unique skill! This plot alone is worth the price of admission, hahahahaha."

"Oh, I can't do it anymore, I really can't do it anymore. Does Bai Tianyu owe Xu Chuan money? How on earth was he persuaded to do this kind of guest appearance?"

"Sure enough, jokes have to be played in front of the real owner to be interesting."

"This move is too naughty. I don't know how Bai Yu's fans will react when they see it."

It’s unclear how Bai Tianyu’s fans will react.

Anyway, Bai Tianyu's reaction was clearly displayed in front of all the audience at this moment.This guy held a whisk in his hand and started singing happily, having more fun than anyone else.

Having said that, this scene of "playing your own tricks" can be said to have directly changed the audience's impression of Bai Tianyu.

In addition, when he sang these two songs written by Xu Chuan, he completely put aside his criticized singing style in the past.

Therefore, in terms of the listening experience of music, he also won the favor of the audience.

When the two factors are combined, the audience at the scene will not say that they are fans of him, but at least they will not continue to criticize him.

The movie is still playing and time passes by.

The plot of the fat insurance was unfolding, and it was during this process that the famous song "Calories" from "The Richest Man in Xihong City" appeared.

During this plot, members of Rocket Girls appeared in the movie one after another as guest appearances.

For example, the original Bao Beier guest-starred in the show, hiding dumbbells and ribs on his body, and drinking a lot of water before weighing in.Xu Chuan was played by Rocket Girls' C-position Han Jie.

Again, this plot was a laugh-out-loud scene in the original version.

However, due to the special relationship between Xu Chuan and Rocket Girl, the audience still found it funny and had a warm feeling.

Of course, this is just incidental stuff.

This movie, and it is here that Xu Chuan made quite a few changes.

Objectively speaking, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is undoubtedly a relatively excellent and successful commercial comedy movie.

However, in the handling of the entire plot of the final test at the end, Xu Chuan felt that there were too many flaws, so many that he could not copy the original version.

The biggest problem is that Wang Duoyu has insufficient motivation to give up 300 billion to save Xia Zhu.

First of all, his relationship with Xia Zhu was not that great.

You know, the two of them have only known each other for a month.Even if two people have been in love from the beginning, the relationship for this period of time is not enough to make one give up 300 billion.

What's more, the two of them were not in love from the beginning.

Speaking of which, if it was Zhuang Qiang, a good brother, who was kidnapped and asked Wang Duoyu to rescue him, it would seem to be more convincing than saving Xia Zhu.

But a movie is a movie after all, and it needs dramatic tension and expression of emotions and values ​​that are larger than life.So it cannot be based on completely realistic considerations.

According to realistic considerations, this 300 billion will never reach Wang Duoyu from the beginning.Not to mention giving up this money to save people.

Therefore, Xu Chuan does not intend to change the method of this final test.

In fact, it cannot be changed.From the perspective of the story's beginning and ending, it's time to turn. If it doesn't turn, it won't end at all.

Due to the above considerations, Xu Chuan modified the lines and performance methods in the last plot.

The biggest purpose of making these modifications is to strengthen the positive character of the heroine Xia Zhu and show her character arc.

The character of Xia Zhu in the original version can be said to be a pure tool man without any highlights at all.This is very fatal, and it represents a complete failure in the creation of this heroine.

Xu Chuan needs to make this character so that the audience likes her and thinks she is worth saving.Only in this way will Wang Duoyu's behavior become reasonable in the eyes of the audience.

Back in the movie, the plot that Xu Chuan added based on the original version has begun to play.

Wang Duoyu’s fat insurance started paying out.

Seeing the money being taken away box by box, Zhuang Qiang and Da Chongming burst into tears and became "stupid".

In contrast, Xia Zhu was calm and calm.

Wang Duoyu next to him looked at Da Chongming and Zhuang Qiang, who were crying like idiots, and then at Xia Zhu, who had a peaceful expression next to him, and deliberately asked her: "Don't you think my behavior now is unreasonable? ?”

Hearing this, Xia Zhu turned to look at Wang Duoyu, then turned to Qian Dui and nodded, "It's true."

"I will no longer be a rich man." Wang Duoyu also turned to look at the pile of money in front of him and said.

The meaning of this sentence is actually very simple, and the audience can understand it. This is a quite straightforward temptation.

Ever since, everyone was looking forward to Xia Zhu's performance.

After Xia Zhu heard this, he first turned to look at Wang Duoyu, then reached out and held his hand and said, "I am not a rich man either."

This may be a bit false to others, but it is actually reasonable when it comes to Xia Zhu.

Do you still remember what Xia Zhu likes about Liu Jiannan?

I like what Liu Jiannan said "Don't be a slave to money".She broke up with Liu Jiannan because she discovered that Liu Jiannan was jealous of money and said one thing, but actually said another.

Therefore, whether it is the original version or Xuchuan's version of Xia Zhu, the character from the beginning is a person who does not value money.Even if everything Wang Duoyu moved her was achieved through spending money, this point still needs to be emphasized.

And to emphasize this point, you don’t need to shout slogan-like lines in long paragraphs.Xu Chuan felt that this action and this sentence would be more effective.

It can be seen from the reaction of the audience that Xu Chuan's adaptation was successful.

The camera cut to a close-up of Wang Duoyu, and Xu Chuan performed a feeling of surprise, touch, and heartbeat.

Then the camera showed two people's hands again, the one belonging to Wang Duoyu, it was obvious that he had used force.

Through this plot, it can be regarded as telling the audience that Xia Zhu has really reached Wang Duoyu's heart this time.

Immediately after this episode, they played football with the Hengtai team.

It was also at this time that Liu Jiannan told Xia Zhu the truth in the stands.She said that Wang Duoyu didn't like her at all and was pursuing her overwhelmingly just to find a reason to burn money.

Liu Jiannan deliberately made an extra 2000 yuan, so that Wang Duoyu would end up with an extra 2000 yuan and not be able to complete the task.

He wanted Xia Zhu to pretend that he didn't know anything, and would give Xia Zhu 30 yuan after the incident was completed.

Here, the performance of the original version is that Xia Zhu first recalled everything he had with Wang Duoyu in disbelief, and then angrily threw away Liu Jiannan and said that he was going to tell Lao Jin about this.But Xu Chuan's handling was a little different.

Du Wenyu first looked at Wang Duoyu on the court. After looking at him with complicated eyes for a second, he turned to look at Liu Jiannan with an extremely sarcastic look and said, "Do you really like money that much?"

This seems to be a question to Liu Jiannan, but in fact it is also a question to Wang Duoyu.

And, again, Xia Zhu won't look like a "white lotus" by asking this.Because she had lost money before, it was foreshadowed that what she cared about was not money.

What is certain is that there are very few people like Xuchuan's version of Xia Zhu in reality, regardless of gender.

It is because there is little that it becomes precious.And it is precisely because of her preciousness that it becomes more and more reasonable for Wang Duoyu to choose to save her.

After adding this plot, we entered the original scene where she wanted to tell Lao Jin.

The plot continued. Wang Duoyu finished playing football and received a call from the "kidnapper", asking him to use 1000 million to redeem Xia Zhu.

Wang Duoyu thought it was the two fund managers who did it, and quickly found them.

Then I received a video from the kidnapper.In the video, the kidnapper once again emphasized that he should get the money to redeem the person before [-] p.m.

If he doesn't show up or calls the police, he'll kill him.

In order to make Wang Duoyu completely nervous, the "kidnapper" even kicked Liu Jiannan out of the unfinished building.

Here, the rules are emphasized again through the mouth of the fund manager.That is, Wang Duoyu cannot use money to redeem people. To redeem people is against the rules.

Moreover, the fund manager also tempted, "300 billion is enough for people to forget all the troubles in the world."

These things are actually meant to show the difficulty of making choices.

One side is 300 billion, and the other side is the life of a girlfriend whom I have not known for a long time but has entered my heart.

It's a good choice, but actually it's hard to choose.

On the other side, Xia Zhu finally learned from Lao Jin that now is the ultimate test for Wang Duoyu.

The key point of the test is whether Wang Duoyu will give up 300 billion and choose to save himself.

The original Xia Zhu's first reaction was this.She stood up directly and said to Lao Jin: "What does this have to do with me? He has no reason to save me."

Immediately afterwards, he began to talk to himself: "Even if he really likes me a little bit...impossible, he must like the 300 billion more!"

Here, the emotions she displays, the words she speaks, and the mental activities she performs are all quite unpleasant and abrupt.

And Xu Chuan changed his lines and performance method.

At this time, after Du Wenyu heard Lao Jin's words, she first looked at Lao Jin in disbelief, and then said in an uncertain tone: "What did you say?"

"I believe what I said is very clear." Lao Jin leaned on the chair and said to Xia Zhu with a smile.

Du Wenyu didn't speak immediately after hearing this. Instead, he slowly leaned back and looked around with his head slightly lowered, thinking.

Then, she stood up and asked Lao Jin: "Do you think this is fun? That's 300 billion, not 300 million!"

"Xia Zhu, I don't know about others. The difference between 300 billion and 300 million here is not that big." Lao Jin's lines are still strengthening Xia Zhu's character.

"Money is a good thing for everyone. You cannot and should not require everyone to be like me, let alone use this matter to test him.

Also, have you ever asked me for my opinion on the exam questions you asked me?Don't you think it's funny?How long have I known him?Even couples who have been married for decades have quarreling over money, let alone me and him?
This test is for you, can you pass it?Why should you ask others to do something you can't do yourself? "Du Wenyu continued to question.

This long line, in addition to re-emphasizing Du Wenyu's character, also has two purposes.

First, it avoids the risk of the audience thinking she has double standards.

You know, she asked Lao Jin not to use her standards to demand others, but she actually asked her boyfriend.

So the last line of "Why ask others to do something you can't do yourself" is very important.

Because through this line, it provides support for Xia Zhu to ask her boyfriend not to like money so much.

After all, she can do this herself, and she is qualified to ask for it.

Second, "the couple who have been married for decades have been at odds because of money" actually reflects the relationship between Lao Jin and the second master Wang Duoyu.

In other words, Lao Jin is also qualified to ask Wang Duoyu to make this choice.Because from practical considerations, he has countless ways to put 300 billion into his own pocket.

But he didn't do that.He chose to fulfill the last wish of his "lover" Erye and gave the money to Wang Duoyu.

As Lao Jin is an important character, Xu Chuan must also show his character arc.

"Money is cold, but the hands of a lover are warm. Don't you want to know whether Wang Duoyu is the lover you have always expected?" Lao Jin said while still smiling.

The previous line "Money is cold, but the hand of a lover is warm" is the original line.As I just said, Lao Jin is qualified to say this.

When faced with this sentence, the original Xia Zhu replied: "I am not his lover."

As for Xu Chuan's response, he chose not to reply to Du Wenyu.

As the plot continued to advance, Wang Duoyu called to discuss with Lao Jin. Naturally, Lao Jin used all kinds of excuses to force Wang Duoyu to continue making choices.

Xu Chuan showed quite solid acting skills here. Every question he asked Lao Jin clearly made the audience feel that he was actually questioning himself.

Time passed by, and Lao Jin and Xia Zhu continued to wait in the unfinished building.

The original Xia Zhuhui made a big move to get time information by peeking at the watch on the coffee table.

On Xu Chuan's side, the shooting method gave Du Wenyu a feeling of no expectations.

But in this appearance of no expectations, a close-up of Du Wenyu's eyes was given, using small movements to peek at the time to show her inner fluctuations.

"I believe in my judgment. Wang Duoyu is a person who values ​​friendship and loyalty." Lao Jin poured a glass of water for Xia Zhu.

At this time, Wang Duoyu, who values ​​friendship, is singing in KTV.

The screen then switched several times.The original version of this plot is actually handled well. Through these comparisons, Wang Duoyu's inner struggle is shown.

The plot advanced again, and it was very close to six o'clock.

Xia Zhu looked at the stairs and seemed to see Wang Duoyu handsomely carrying money to redeem himself.

Of course, this is just an illusion.

Her inner movements were felt by Liu Jiannan, who had been untied and let go.

Liu Jiannan said to Xia Zhu, "It seems that everyone really likes money."

This sentence was used in response to Du Wenyu's taunting him on the football field, "Do you really like money that much?"

Du Wenyu glanced at Liu Jiannan when he heard this but said nothing.

When Liu Jiannan saw that Du Wenyu was silent, he continued: "He won't come. No one in this world can refuse 300 billion."

After saying that, he turned back to Lao Jin and said, "Mr. Jin, the time is up, let's call it a day. I seem to have diabetes and I need to go to the hospital."

This line is a joke because the grandson was so scared that he peed when he was pushed downstairs.And because he was hanging upside down, he could taste himself.

Lao Jin didn't reply when he heard this, but looked at his watch. The time had indeed reached six o'clock.So, he put away his watch and said, "It seems that I overestimated him."

"It's over, I'm going to bring the car over." Lao Jin's "kidnapper's men" said and walked towards the corridor.

The next development is no different from the original version.

Wang Duoyu came with money, but he was not as handsome as Du Wenyu imagined as the redeemer.

Instead, he sat on the stairs and burst into tears.

As for Du Wenyu above the stairs, at Xu Chuan's request, her emotional processing was much richer than in the original version.

Looking at Wang Duoyu who was crying, she first glanced at Lao Jin with some confusion.

This feeling of being overwhelmed was the reaction she should have. What she expected came true, but what came true was so unreal.

The camera gave Lao Jin a close-up at this time.In the close-up, Lao Jin blinked at Du Wenyu, showing an expression that said, "I said I was right."

Du Wenyu then turned to look at Wang Duoyu, who had runny nose and tears.

This "ugly look" made her laugh.

Smiling and laughing, she couldn't stop crying anymore.

In addition, Xu Chuan added a scene of Liu Jiannan here.

Liu Jiannan, who was sitting in the back, heard Wang Duoyu's voice and crawled to Lao Jin's side.Wang Duoyu looked down at Wang Duoyu from a prone position, his face full of disbelief.

Then, he slowly sat back, staring blankly ahead, the disbelief on his face finally turned into a self-deprecating smile.

In the original version, at this time Liu Jiannan ran over and said, "Congratulations to Mr. Wang, lovers will eventually get married."

In Xu Chuan's opinion, this plot is meaningless and unsightly.

Not only that, but it also wastes an important role like Liu Jiannan who could express himself better.

As mentioned before, the end of Xu Chuan’s plan is not Wang Duoyu’s donation, but a group portrait.

Liu Jiannan's group portrait plot is him talking about "Don't be a slave to money".

How to make his transformation appear reasonable and natural?

Then we need the blessing of this plot added by Xu Chuan.

Liu Jiannan doesn't believe that anyone can really give up 300 billion.Even one second he was still insisting on this point of view, but the next second, Wang Duoyu really came.

This simply subverted his outlook on life.

Perhaps at this moment, he remembered many cases from his previous lectures.

It was also at this moment that his character was sublimated.

The plot continues.

When Lao Jin's classic line "Strictly speaking, you should call me mistress" appeared, the character arc that Xu Chuan wanted to show to Lao Jin emerged.

Here, Xu Chuan did not let Du Wenyu say anything like "Mr. Jin, I apologize for what I said before. You are qualified to ask others to choose the hand of their lover" to emphasize Lao Jin's setting.

Some things are not suitable to be explained so clearly and need to leave some room for interpretation by the audience.

The advanced art is to leave blank space.

Although the artistic sense of commercial films is certainly not that strong, the spaces that should be left blank should still be left blank.

Then the screen cut out, the background music of "Need Someone to Accompany" sounded, and then the subtitles appeared on the right side, while the ending Easter egg prepared by Xu Chuan began to play on the left side.

There are wedding photos of Wang Duoyu and Xia Zhu, and photos of Xia Zhu’s pregnant belly.

There are also life scenes of Liu Jiannan, Da Mingming, Zhuang Qiang, coach and others mentioned before.

When these shots appeared, the audience suddenly found that they were moved by watching a comedy.

Xia Zhu, a heroine who was originally unlovable on earth and had a weak image.The hearts of Blue Star viewers are relatively full.

Some people even think that Xia Zhu is a perfect girlfriend.

After all, most ordinary people are far from wealthy.

　It took a long time to adapt, I hope you all like it.
