"sit!"
Sheng Jiaoyang and Xu Ping sat on one side, while Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting sat on the other side.
"Our TV series has been reviewed and approved," Ma Tingting said happily.
"Yes, I know." Sheng Jiaoyang nodded.
Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting looked at each other, and Ma Tingting asked tentatively: "Jiaojiao, are you unhappy?"
"Of course I'm happy."
If you are happy, why do you still have such a serious look on your face
Xu Ping explained helpfully: "Something happened to an elder in Jiaojiao's family recently, so she is not in a good mood."
"Oh." The two looked at each other again, both of them not knowing how to comfort each other.
Sheng Jiaoyang tapped the table with his hand on the table and said, "I asked you two to come out to talk about the auction of the rights to broadcast our TV series."
She paused and then said: "You all know the original plan. Once it is reviewed, the broadcast rights will be auctioned, and then publicity will begin. But something has happened to me in the past few days, and there may be a big incident for me next. The public opinion storm will definitely affect the price of our TV series, and it may even fail to be sold. So my current plan is to postpone the auction until I solve the problem."
"What happened? Is there anything we can do to help?" Qin Anliang asked hurriedly.
"I can handle this myself, but there is indeed another matter." Sheng Jiaoyang picked up the tea cup and took a slow sip of tea.
"What's going on?" Ma Tingting asked cautiously.
"Have you ever thought about making a movie?"
"What?" Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting both looked surprised.
Sheng Jiaoyang looked at the flowers and plants placed on the shelf in the corner, lost in thought.
Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting looked at each other, completely confused. They had no choice but to look at Xu Ping, who shrugged at them, indicating that she didn't know what was going on.
After a long time, Sheng Jiaoyang came back to his senses and smiled apologetically at the two people opposite him.
"I have a story about my parents' love that I want to turn into a movie," she said.
"This..." Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting looked at each other again.
In their impression, the love between their parents means that the parents are short-lived and have a simple life! If it were made into a movie, I don’t know how many people would watch it.
"What's wrong? It's very difficult?" Sheng Jiaoyang looked at the two of them.
"Jiaojiao, to be honest, in today's impetuous era, it is estimated that not many people can quietly appreciate the ordinary love stories between parents. What is being sold now are all about youthful throbbing and some imaginative stories. ." Ma Tingting said.
"Ok, I know."
Sheng Jiaoyang responded calmly, "But I don't intend to make money from this movie. I just want to make it and make it according to my ideas."
"Now that you have decided, I have nothing to say. As long as you believe me, I will help you take the photo." Qin Anliang said.
Ma Tingting glanced at Qin Anliang, and then said, "I am also willing to help you."
Sheng Jiaoyang smiled and said, "I won't treat you badly."
"Since it's to help..."
"These are two different things. You can help out of friendship, but I can't let you help in vain. After all, your time is precious." Sheng Jiaoyang interrupted Qin Anliang.
Hearing these words, Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting felt happy both physically and mentally, and they decided to help out even more.
"Now, if you two are free, please sit down for a while and listen to me tell a story."
"I have plenty of time."
"Me too."
Sheng Jiaoyang took a sip of tea and spoke slowly: "Once upon a time, there was a young and handsome young man who met a wealthy eldest lady..."
Once upon a time, there was a young and handsome young man who met an eldest daughter from a wealthy family. This eldest daughter had a father who loved her very much. The father specially donated a library to his daughter's school for his daughter's sake. The young man also heard about this. The name of the eldest lady.
One day, when the young man was jogging in the morning, he turned a corner because there was road construction in front of him. He walked through the forest path and saw a girl sitting on a stone chair under a tree reading a book. So the next day he deliberately I ran on that trail and saw the same people in the same position on the third day, the fourth day...
Finally one day, the girl suddenly stood up and walked to the road, and the young man knocked her book away. The two met, and the young man also knew that this girl was the eldest lady of a wealthy family.
After so many days of secret love, there was finally a breakthrough. The young man did not stop pursuing the girl because of his different status. The two of them got to know each other better and better, and finally got together naturally.
Naturally, the girl's father would not agree with them being together, but the girl was determined to be with the young man. The young man also used his actions to slowly change the girl's father's attitude, and the two got married.
After being married happily and sweetly for a while, the wife found out that she was pregnant. This was supposed to be a surprise, but the doctor advised her to get rid of the child and not to have any more children in the future because she had a family-hered heart disease. The child, not only will her child inherit the family disease, but she will also put a heavy load on her heart due to pregnancy. The child may not be born, and she may have to take her own life. Even if she can give birth to the child safely, she The heart will also fail prematurely due to overload, which means it will be short-lived.
The wife chose to hide the doctor's diagnosis and only told her husband the news of pregnancy. The husband, who did not know the secret, was overjoyed, but the wife became more depressed day by day. These days, she often asked, if she died in the delivery room, what would he do? what to do. In order to reassure her, her husband always said that he would live and die with her.
The wife who loved her husband deeply made a decision. She wanted to use a cold attitude to make her beloved husband slowly stay away from her. Although the husband was confused and sad about her increasingly cold attitude, he thought that his wife was suffering from the disease. I suffered from prenatal depression, so I have always endured the indifference shown by my wife. Even though I was working hard in my career and I was so tired that I fell asleep every day, I still always cared about my wife. After the birth of my daughter, I even took care of my daughter. Pampered like a princess.
Because the wife deliberately concealed it, the husband did not even know that his daughter also had heart disease.
Year by year.
On the eighth birthday of the little princess, the wife suddenly became gentle to her husband again. They recalled the beautiful memories of their love alone. The husband was very excited. He told his wife that he would arrange a grand wedding for her, but the wife said I made a premise - if we can celebrate my daughter's birthday together next year.
The husband did not hear the implication of his wife’s words. He was just happy that his wife’s attitude had improved, thinking that she had finally overcome her pre- and post-natal depression. He was thinking about how to celebrate tomorrow, but when he woke up the next morning, he found that his home had changed. Oh my God, his wife committed suicide. In fact, it was the wife who had run out of oil, but the unknowing husband believed it when his father-in-law said that his wife had committed suicide.
Because of the huge psychological gap, the husband resented his wife. He numbed himself with work all day long, and even avoided seeing his daughter, who he had always held in his hands and loved. Even if he saw her, he ignored her and his attitude became very cold.
"What happened next?" Ma Tingting asked, fascinated.
"Later he knew the truth, and then he died of illness." Sheng Jiaoyang said the ending very lightly.
"Gone?"
"Gone."
Uh, this... Qin Anliang and Ma Tingting looked at each other, a little helpless.
How to film a story like this? The timeline is too long, and it’s not dramatic enough. I’ll probably just have to keep it for myself after I shoot it.
"The background of the story is like this, but I don't want to unfold the whole story in such a flat way. I want to add a little bit of the so-called 'imagination' that Tingting said, and then use flashback to tell the story." Sheng Jiaoyang said. .
"Brain hole? What brain hole?" Ma Tingting asked curiously.
“I wanted to do it from their daughter’s perspective.”
"It starts from the perspective of their daughter, but how does this daughter know the details of her parents' love story? Through what, mother's or father's diary?"
Sheng Jiaoyang glanced at Ma Tingting with admiration. She was indeed a screenwriter, and she could quickly think of the key points.
"Yes, my daughter does have her mother's diary in her hand."
Ma Tingting nodded and said: "That's okay. There have been movies made in this way before, allowing the younger generation to unfold the real story through memories through diaries." However, this should not be considered an idea. Bar
"My idea is that after the daughter learned about her parents' story, she disapproved of her mother's actions in the whole story. When she was reading the diary, she inadvertently traveled to the time when her mother was writing that page and possessed her. For her mother, that is to say, she temporarily became her mother, and then she wanted to change the outcome of her parents. Her mother's death was inevitable, but her father's death was completely changeable in her opinion. But she finally discovered , no matter how long she wore it, no matter what she tried, in the end she couldn't change her father's death."
After hearing what Sheng Jiaoyang said, the other three people present were shocked.
Qin Anliang murmured: "If it were shot like this, the whole story would be readable."
"Yes, this idea is really good. I have the urge to write a script immediately." Ma Tingting said.
Sheng Jiaoyang smiled slightly and said to Ma Tingting: "Tingting, I would like to trouble you to help me write this script."
"Okay, no problem." Ma Tingting agreed.
Sheng Jiaoyang picked up the tea cup and drank tea. His eyes fell on the table aimlessly, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Jiaojiao, is the background of your story true?" Ma Tingting asked suddenly. Of course she would not think that this was the story of Jiaojiao's parents, because Jiaojiao did not have a heart disease and Jiaojiao's mother was still fine. The characters in the story are completely different.
"This is a story about one of my closest friends. It's basically true." But she directly deleted those redundant people from the story. (To be continued)
