MTL - Yan Yan-Chapter 23 Wronged

Everyone in the crew knows that the second female Lin Yiran is a high-end RMB player who brings money into the team. Money can make ghosts push the mill, so it is also very common for RMB players to bring their own screenwriters into the team, and everyone is not surprised. .

Su Yan was mentally prepared in this regard before joining the group, but she still had a little bit of luck: What if I think too much? Not all actors who brought money into the group like to change the script without authorization.

However, the reality threw a pot of cold water on her and completely woke her up.

For the main creative team of the script, the behavior of actors bringing their own screenwriters into the team is definitely contempt and insult to them, as well as contempt and disrespect for their work results. Slapped in the face, I only dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, because the screenwriter's status in the group is very low and he has no right to speak at all.

A film crew is a small society. The top of the society is not the director, nor the starring star with a large number of fans, but the type of people who have capital and backing behind it; the screenwriter is the bottom of the society, both a humble worker and a hard-working tool. .

For the crew of "Monitoring the Moon in the West Tower", the second female Lin Yiran is the top of the society. Even the starring and the director have to give her three points. If she wants to change the script at will, it will simply be like an army rushing into a no-man's land. , No one dared to stop it.

The thing Su Yan is most worried about is that she will add drama to herself. If she can add it to the logic of the outline of the script, she can accept it through gritted teeth, but if the addition is too outrageous, it will make the outline very illegal. And, like a steel bar twisted by brute force, it is not pleasing to the eye horizontally and vertically. After the TV series is broadcast, it will definitely affect the overall storyline. When the time comes, the audience will complain or the investors will complain. In the end, they are the ones to blame. Help the humble screenwriter.

This kind of worry started from the first day Lin Yiran joined the group. After more than a week of anxiety, the most worrying thing still came, and the actual situation was more serious than she imagined - Lin Yiran The way to add drama is not to add self-created scenes, but to grab the scenes that originally belonged to the heroine and add them to himself.

It is the first time that Su Yan has encountered such a thorny problem in her two-year career.

If it was another drama, it might not have a big impact, but "Moonlight in the West Tower" must not do this, because the heroine and the second girl are close sisters and fall in love with the same man, and the heroine is trying to save the man. The master paid a lot, but the second girl took over her sister's efforts, and even planned to kill her sister, pretending to be her sister, deceiving the male protagonist that she saved him by herself, the male protagonist was blinded by her, really fell in love with her, and even Decided to marry her, but on the day of the marriage between the male lead and the second female lead, the female lead came back domineering, exposed her sister's conspiracy and lies in public, and recovered her innocence and justice for herself.

What Lin Yiran wants to add to herself is a scene in which the heroine risked her life to save the hero on the battlefield, and she also wants to change the heroine who harms the heroine to the heroine who kills the heroine, which not only completely distorts the character of the heroine, It greatly weakens the presence of the heroine, and also seriously destroys the audience's sense of involvement and empathy for the heroine. It can be said that the heroine and the two female characters are reversed.

As one of the screenwriters of this play, Su Yan can't accept this kind of change, even death!

But what annoyed her even more was that Lin Yiran didn't discuss with her at all before changing the script, and she only knew about it on the day the filming started.

In other words, Lin Yiran only discussed this matter with the director, and also obtained the director's support and approval, but the director knew that Lin Yiran had changed the script, but did not inform her the screenwriter, let alone come to her to discuss .

She also doesn't ask the big director to take her as a small screenwriter, but at least don't treat her like air, give her some due respect!

Even if you don't respect her as a person, you should respect the results of their team's labor, right?

For a screenwriter, maintaining the completion of the script is the bottom line, so she must stop this, although doing so will offend the director and Lin Yiran, but she can't watch her and her colleagues' efforts were wasted.

After the shooting of that scene, Su Yan went to find the director.

The director was sitting under the blue awning, staring at the monitor, but the assistant surnamed Yang approached the director one step ahead of Su Yan: "Director Zhou, President Sun called you just now, you are filming, I I'll answer it for you."

Hearing the call from the investor, the director immediately raised his eyes from the monitor: "What's the matter?"

Assistant Yang put his mouth close to the director's ear and whispered, "The Crown Prince of Haoyuan Group will come to the film and television city for inspection soon, and it will be in our production crew. The person in charge of the film and television city also called us just now to ask Treat yourself well."

The director's eyes widened in disbelief: "Why did you choose to be on our crew?"

This film and television city is invested and constructed by Haoyuan Group. In order to attract investment and publicity, the film and television investment company under Haoyuan Group has invested in many large-scale costume dramas and given great discounts. The only one. The requirement is that the shooting base should be located in the original Tang City Film and Television City.

It can be said that 70% of the costume dramas currently being filmed in this film and television city are invested by Haoyuan Pictures.

Assistant Yang guessed: "Maybe it's because Lin Yiran is a relative of President Sun? Or is it because our IP is big and we have a lot of investment?"

"Which drama is being filmed in this city now with a big IP? That one isn't S-rated?" The director sighed again, "Forget it, it's just bad luck, just wait and don't make any mistakes, by the way. , Mr. Sun didn't tell you when Mr. Bai will come?"

Assistant surnamed Yang: "I didn't say it."

The director reprimanded: "You don't ask?"

Assistant Yang looked aggrieved: "I asked, and President Sun said he didn't know either. He still listened to the person in charge of the film and television city."

The director sighed again: "Alright, alright, let's go and inform the whole crew, put everything in order, and put your spirits up. From now on, pay attention to your words and deeds, and leave one for Mr. Bai. good impression."

Assistant Yang: "Okay."

While the two of them were whispering and whispering, Su Yan had been standing beside her anxiously waiting, and finally got the man named Yang away, but the male screenwriter surnamed Wang brought by Lin Yiran was the first to cut it off. In front of the director: "Director Wu, there are still some problems with the script, I need to communicate with you here."

Anyone with long ears can understand the implication of his words: we have to continue to change the script.

Su Yan immediately said: "Director Wu, I also have a question that I need to communicate with you."

Wu Daoxian and the screenwriter surnamed Wang looked at each other, then looked at Su Yan, and asked helplessly, "What's the matter with you?"

Su Yan couldn't take care of it anymore, so she said straight to the point: "Shouldn't that scene just now be the heroine's scene? How did she become the second girl?"

The director also expected her to ask this question, and said impatiently, "This scene is more suitable for the second female lead."

Just as Su Yan was about to retort, the screenwriter surnamed Wang interrupted her: "Who's part of the scene depends on who filmed it, the second girl filmed this scene, and the scene belongs to the second girl, and has nothing to do with the heroine. ."

Su Yan understood that the two of them were working together to force herself to stop pursuing this matter, but her professional ethics did not allow her to give up, and argued rationally: "But this scene is not suitable for the second female lead at all. It ruins the heroine, and it ruins the overall storyline."

She knew that saying that would offend many people, but she wasn't afraid to offend people, just that the script would be destroyed.

The director's face sank instantly: "You know a lot? Would you like to be the director? You will direct the rest of the scenes?"

Su Yan: "I didn't mean that, I mean..."

"Then keep your mouth shut!" the director roared and interrupted her.

Many staff members on the set were startled by the director's roar, and they stopped their work, looking at the awning angrily and fearfully.

The unfamiliar eyes burned her face like clusters of fireworks. Su Yan was extremely embarrassed and aggrieved, and pantothenic acid followed in her eyes, but she knew that she couldn't cry, and it would be even more embarrassing to cry, so she bit down. He clenched his teeth tightly, clenching his fists tightly, so that his fingernails were deeply embedded in the flesh of his palm, resisting the urge to cry with pain.

A screenwriter surnamed Wang glanced at Su Yan coldly: "Man, it's important to have self-knowledge, I've seen a lot of little screenwriters like you who don't know the sky and the earth, and after writing two or three scripts, I feel that I am the best in the world. Well, in fact, it's not as good as shit, and I like to pretend I don't understand, and disgusting people don't know it!"

This yin-yang theory made Su Yan angry and aggrieved. She took a deep breath. She tried her best to keep her calm, and said without being humble or arrogant: "Director Wu, this script was the work of the four of us on the team for four months. I know that no one is perfect, and the script cannot be perfect everywhere. I can accept criticism and correct the imperfections of the script, but it is unacceptable for me to transfer the heroine's scene to the second heroine. Destroying the outline and destroying the character design is destroying the script and destroying the work.”

This time, Director Wu patiently listened to what she said, and then asked with a blank face: "Finished? After you finish speaking, pack your things and get out, and don't think about messing around in this business in the future."

Su Yan: "…"

The screenwriter surnamed Wang: "Oh, there are some small screenwriters who don't even know how to behave, and they still try to break ground on Tai Sui's head.

The corners of Su Yan's nose and eyes kept getting sore and hot, tears poured into her eyes, she gritted her teeth again to force the tears back, and looked at the director without fear: "Even if you dismiss me, ban me, My attitude will not change, the script just can't be changed so blindly!"

Director Wu said fiercely, "Go away!" It was as if he was kicking a mangy dog.

There were already snickers from around.

In this industry, being stupid is the original sin. As long as you are stupid, it is your fault; you have no background and no connections, and it is also your fault.

Su Yan has long understood the rules of survival in the entertainment industry, but it is still difficult to accept when something happens to her.

She bit the tip of her tongue fiercely, forced back the grievance and humiliation with pain, gave the director one last look with a stubborn look, then turned and left the awning.

The scorching sun was scorching hot, so Su Yan wore a beige knitted short-sleeved top, and the slim fit perfectly fit her figure; she wore a pair of light blue casual jeans.

As soon as she stepped out of the awning, she felt a tingling sensation in her head, neck, and arms.

But this tingling sensation not only came from the blazing sun overhead, but also from the gazes of the people around him.

She hated that sympathy mixed with gloating or disapproving glances that instantly brought back memories of that nightmarish wedding.

Shame, embarrassment, grievance, anger and other negative emotions flooded into her heart instantly, but she couldn't do anything about it.

She can only order herself not to cry. It's embarrassing to cry in public, and it will only be laughed at.

She just wanted to leave the studio quickly, just like she escaped from the divorce banquet that day, and then burst into tears when she escaped to a corner where no one was around.

However, before taking five steps, Su Yan suddenly froze, because a tall and straight man suddenly appeared on the set.

The man was wearing a white shirt and light blue jeans. Under the fierce sunlight, his complexion was as cold as jade, his facial features were extremely handsome, and his temperament was as outstanding as bamboo.

His appearance also caused a commotion, and the crowd cast their inquisitive glances at him, thinking that it was a top male model who came to join the show.

Bai Xingfan found Su Yan in the crowd at a glance, slightly bent his eyes, walked towards her step by step, and gently opened his lips: "Miss Su, long time no see."

Su Yan stared blankly at Bai Xingfan in front of her, her eyes were getting more and more sour, and her grievances also flooded inexplicably. It was like a bullied kindergarten child finally saw the parents, and finally couldn't bear it anymore and cried with a "wow". .
