Chapter 359 What a big pit
Chapter 359 What a big pit
This new script finally seems to be somewhat in line with Jiang Baige's wishes.
It is impossible to delete the male protagonist, but as Jiang Baige said at the discussion meeting, the logic has been adjusted. It is no longer about the male protagonist saving the female protagonist, but the focus of the story is put back on the female protagonist.
Jiang Baige felt somewhat relieved: Perhaps because it is already 20 years later, people’s acceptance of heroines is increasing.
From 13 to now, even if she is from 23, in these seven or eight years, she has gradually become a part of the "past", forgetting that although the living conditions of women were still unsatisfactory until 23, women's consciousness has been awakening in the past ten years.
Although women are still subjected to various judgments about appearance, figure and morality in dramas starring female protagonists.
Although the benefits of female-led dramas are still shared by various male protagonists and supporting actors.
But at least there are dramas with strong female protagonists.
This provides a brand new option - it is better than women always being sidelined in various male-dominated dramas.
As long as you can seize this opportunity, who says you can't turn the tables and become the real master?
At least this drama has Jiang Baige in charge.
What does the literary editor of the group do?
Isn’t it just about adjusting the script in time?
Now that she's here, she has to do something.
Although we don’t know how many editors the crew has arranged, considering the size of the short drama and the length of filming, having one is good enough.
Maybe it's one of the two screenwriters I've met before.
Lao Ge also knew that she didn't like the male lead, but he still spent money to hire her. Doesn't that mean he wanted her to work hard on the female lead?
She is confident that she can do this well.
However, she also felt that Lao Ge was too confident: by letting the original author enrich the image of the heroine, wasn't he afraid that Lu Tian wouldn't be able to reap the benefits of the heroine?
When Jiang Baige had read two-thirds of the script, she understood it.
The ice cubes in the iced lemon tea had long melted, diluting the taste. It was neither icy nor sweet in the mouth, but rather bland. She put down the plastic cup, looked out the window, and smiled: I still can't beat these old hands.
In the new script, the hero went to the other extreme - he did not come to save the heroine, but he came for her and devoted himself to her.
At first glance, it's a little better than the previous Savior, but at its core it's still a prince or a knight.
That is, an idealized masculine image.
Such men hardly exist in reality, and they are written into books just to satisfy the imagination and fantasies of female audiences.
It's only right that you are loved by everyone.
So Lao Ge is not worried at all that his brilliance will be overshadowed by the heroine.
Because he is sure that his female audiences would rather imagine themselves as the "little girl" who is infinitely loved by the male protagonist than to imagine themselves as the female fighter who has to go through hardships to fight for a future for her mother and herself.
——There is a part in the script where the heroine encounters setbacks and is in a miserable state, and is met by the hero.
The male protagonist's consolation is: "With me, you don't have to worry about any betrayal or infidelity, and you can be a little girl forever."
Jiang Baige took out a red pen and crossed out this sentence angrily.
too disgusting.
There is a feeling of being denied, as if after working for ten years, because of a small mistake at work, people complain that "you've been working for ten years but you're still like a newcomer."
But she could also imagine that because of this sentence and the thousands of other sentences in the script that made her sick but made the male lead shine, under Lao Ge's manipulation, the entry "Lu Tian X-month boyfriend" became a hot search.
What's worse than this is that the existence of the male protagonist conveys the message that the female protagonist cannot do this alone.
In a sense, this is true.
Humans are social animals, and many times, it is difficult for one person to achieve a huge and difficult goal.
She needs companionship.
But the heroine in this story is not without companions.
She has a mother and a female classmate who understands her - that female classmate has completely "disappeared", replaced by the male protagonist, and even became the "enemy" of the female protagonist because the female classmate developed a liking for the male protagonist.
In Lao Ge's script, a companion is equated with an admirer of the opposite sex, and the purpose is quite impure.
Jiang Baige understood everything now.
Lao Ge asked her to come, not to let her write a better female lead, but to let her adjust everything except the male lead, so that the whole story can better serve the male lead without appearing abrupt.
No wonder another screenwriter left.
No wonder he continued to pester Jiang Baige despite her blunt rejection and refused to give up until he achieved his goal.
Because he had already dug a big hole, just waiting for Jiang Baige to jump in.
If Jiang Baige didn't jump in, the pit would not be complete. So he tried every possible way to get Jiang Baige.
Even Xue Qinghui's intentions towards this role were taken into account by him.
Jiang Baige was so angry that she wanted to pack her bags and leave immediately.
But the labor contract has been signed.
No, what made her unwilling to leave was not the contract - although if she paid the penalty, her copyright would be given away for free.
She doesn't like the feeling of being plotted against and having to admit defeat.
Since Lao Ge wanted to play, she would accompany him to the end. She wanted to see who would win.
If she wins, maybe Xue Qinghui will also become a little famous?
In her previous life, she did not write this article, nor did she sell the copyright of this book, and Xue Qinghui did not act in this drama.
What if she acted in it and became famous?
Ge Hongjian wants to kill three birds with one stone, and so can Jiang Baige: if the drama becomes a hit, the copyright fees for her novels will also increase, so why not?
Moreover, she could also avenge a personal vendetta: ever since Lu Tian wanted to use her hard work to pave the way for his future development, they had almost become enemies.
If Xue Qinghui becomes famous, Lu Tian and his team's plan will fail. How can Jiang Baige not be looking forward to it?
She wasn't expecting it, she was making it happen.
Now, working on the crew is not just for those tens of thousands of dollars.
She risked her dignity without anyone knowing, so she worked extra hard.
In addition to following the team every day, she also has to take time to handle the company's temporary and regular work.
The crew's start time is uncertain, and it is common to start work in the middle of the night.
As she expected, there was only one editor in the crew besides her, the one she had met at the discussion meeting before.
However, after Jiang Baige came, the editor was assigned by Lao Ge to revise the flyer for Lu Tian.
Xue Qinghui was left alone and helpless.
Jiang Baige's blood boiled and she felt a sense of mission on her shoulders. She followed Xue Qinghui in almost every scene.
The other editor-in-charge would also come to Jiang Baige if he had any questions, so she had to follow some of Lu Tian's scenes.
As time goes by, she has to be in almost all the scenes.
The advantage of the fast pace of short play work is that Lu Tian is also busy and has little interaction with Jiang Baige's work, so he has no time to bother her.
So that Jiang Baige doesn’t have to pay any extra attention.
But perhaps because she was too tired, she suddenly felt abdominal pain on the set that day...and her period came early.
