Chapter 528 I Must Direct

Tang Jun is a hipster, not a hipster.

However, the term "literary youth" has become a derogatory term nowadays. He searched through his mailbox and read the submissions from netizens.

He has a side job, doing a love podcast. He accepts the love problems of netizens, acts as a love mentor, and gives responses.

Many good stories will be adapted by Tang Jun. Of course, he will find the parties involved to purchase them and pay the corresponding copyright fees.

Now, except for some job requirements, the people who listen to blogs are relatively petty bourgeoisie. Tang Jun increasingly feels that the love stories told are a bit out of touch with reality.

“There is so much love in the study abroad circle.”

Tang Jun finished a day's blog recording and sighed.

But he knows more about the study abroad circle, because his ex-girlfriend is a big girl, his ex-ex-girlfriend is a French girl, and before that, there was also an American girl. As for why there is no Germany, it is because the German students are busy graduating...

Because of this understanding, there is absolutely no way I can view these sharings equally.

After taking a shower, Tang Jun returned to the bedroom and began to prepare a new script "The 99th Time I Secretly Love You", which tells the story of secretly loving a boy from a female perspective.

He plans to show the differences of girls' secret crushes in different environments, from high school to college and then to entering society.

"Why is my writing getting worse and worse--" Tang Jun took his hands off the keyboard. He realized that today was not a good time to write.

Let's take a look at the original script of the great writer! Tang Jun took out the manuscript, stretched his body, and opened the first page of the script.

[Scene 1: Snow, exterior, day
The whistling sound of heavy snow.

On the third anniversary of her ex-fiancé Chu Tengshu's death, Xiao Wanyue lay in the snow, missing her deceased lover.

Xiao Wanyue stood up, shook off the snow on her body, looked up at the sky, and left the snow.
The camera slowly zooms out…]
First of all, the script format is standard, and Tang Jun was relieved. Novels and scripts can be said to be two different art forms.

It is revealed at the beginning that the story takes place in a small town called Hengdaohezi under the big city and the Ice City.

"It's a very steady opening to send a wrong letter." Tang Jun said that many literary works in ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, have used letters as their opening. For example, Sophie's World and Rousseau's New Heloise also designed letter elements. Even 84 Charing Cross Road is a whole letter dialogue.

"But the beginning is a dead male supporting role, which is steady but innovative. Teacher Gu is indeed a famous writer and is good at telling stories."

Once again, Tang Jun himself highly recognizes the other party's ability to tell stories.

As the story progresses, clues emerge and Tang Jun discovers that the dead Chu Tengshu seems to be the male protagonist.

The male protagonist dies at the beginning?

"Interesting. How will the hero be portrayed? Through memories? Then the storyline is too thin? Is this female Fuji, who has the same name as the hero, a character who helps the heroine get out of the haze?"

"Female friendship triumphs over love? The theme is good, but..."

But the love element is diluted! Tang Jun agrees that life is not just about love, but he is a romantic film director after all.

But soon the thing that gave Tang Jun goosebumps came.

A good storyteller can convey a lot of information in just one or two sentences.

"Ah, this guest looks exactly like the one we just rode in the car with."

"They really look alike, are they sisters?"

The person who said this in the script was the supporting character "Driver". He said this when he saw Xiao Wanyue.

In the previous plot, Xiao Wanyue couldn't help wanting to meet Chu Tengshu who wrote back to her, after all, her boyfriend was dead. She followed the address in the yearbook in her boyfriend's belongings and sent the letter to her boyfriend's hometown, Hengdaohezi. There should have been no reply.

"Isn't this a story of redemption? Could it be that the female vine and the male vine were classmates, and the female vine was the male vine's first love? So when the male vine grew up, he found the female protagonist Xiao Wanyue, who looked very similar to the female vine, as his girlfriend. Stand-in literature!" Tang Jun got excited, and he felt the tension of the story. In other words, it was possible to think of different story developments. Tang Jun lifted his messy hair, because his hair was too long, and it would affect his reading if it fell on the script, so he simply picked up a rubber band from the ground and tied it up.

In a household with cats, it is normal to have rubber bands on the ground.

The story developed differently from what Tang Jun imagined, and was more subtle. Tang Jun wanted to explode the contradictions. For example, when Nan Teng proposed to Xiao Wanyue, he said, "Do you believe in love at first sight?" Did it turn out that he looked like your first love?

If he were to film the scene, he would definitely film Xiao Wanyue's disappointment in love, her resentment towards her boyfriend, and how she would be healed by the love on the other side. The movie would definitely be better than reality.

But the script is more like throwing all the contradictions into a bag, and you watch quietly, waiting for that moment.

"What a master of storytelling, what a master of storytelling. Gu Lu is so amazing!" Tang Jun clapped his hands in admiration.

He originally thought that after the male protagonist's death, the male protagonist's character would be enriched through Xiao Wanyue's perspective.

Unexpectedly, it was after Xiao Wanyue realized that she might be a substitute for Female Teng that she wrote a letter "requesting" Female Teng to tell her about Male Teng's student days.

The image of the male protagonist gradually becomes richer in the female vine's letter, and at the same time, the female vine begins to recall how she got along with her former classmates with the same name and surname. The initial memories were "murderous" and nothing good happened.

"This detail is so fascinating. It even describes the secret love between young people..."

Tang Jun couldn't find a suitable word!
The girl and the boy volunteer at the Love Library next to the school. The boy is not busy all day and likes to leave his name on the library card. The girl hates this mischievous behavior.

[Chu Teng tree, Chu Teng tree, Chu Teng tree]

This is not a prank.

This is not writing your own name.

This is writing your name!

Because they have the same name and surname, the boy dared to write the name of the girl he secretly loves so unscrupulously.

"I want to shoot, I must shoot this movie!" Tang Jun was very excited.

Then, Tang Jun picked up the script "Ninety-nine Times of Secret Love for You" which he had written one-third of and became more disgusted with it. It is said that a mother will not dislike her child if he is ugly, but with such a good example before him, he, as a creator, began to feel dissatisfied with his own work.

"My voice was too loud, my vision was too narrow, and I was not sensible enough."

Without even finishing reading the script, Tang Jun called Gu Lu directly. He couldn't hold it in any longer!
No one answered the phone...

What's going on? Could it be that my previous response was not good and he is dissatisfied with me? Tang Jun was a little panicked.

There was another person who was equally uneasy.

"President Wang, why do you seem uneasy?" The energetic Manager Xiao saw that the publishing company was not in good condition at the helm.

If you are old and your body can’t keep up, can you…

"Xiao Gu said he wanted to give me a surprise," President Wang said, "but I have no idea what the surprise is!"

"Huh?" Manager Xiao thought about it and was a little disappointed. He responded casually, "He must feel that his new book, To Live, is very good, so it's a surprise."

"It's not that simple," said President Wang. "Xiao Gu told me that it's a gift that will allow me to return home in glory."

As the head of the Communist Youth League of Bingcheng, his rank is much higher than that of the mayor, so President Wang's return to his hometown is a glorious return.

But what is the gift for returning home in glory?
Manager Xiao frowned. It was unexpected, but it was not important. What was important was that he had to remind the president that it was time to pay attention to the progress of Teacher Gu Lu's new book.

Some authors have to be urged to update!
