The bard joins the entertainment industry

On May 2, more than ten days have passed since Chen Shuo participated in the interview for Zhang Yimou's new movie.

Just when he thought there was no hope for Zhang Yimou, he suddenly received a call asking him and Yu Bo to go to Zhang Yimou's studio tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Chen Shuo drove Wu Qi's van to pick up Yu Bo and found Zhang Yimou's studio according to the address.

This is in an apartment building, with only a room of tens of square meters and four or five desks.

Posters of Zhang Yimou's works are hung all around.

When Chen Shuo arrived, everyone was busy.

Zhang Yimou was sitting at a conference table made up of two table tennis tables, discussing the script with Wang Bin and others.

Seeing the two people arriving, he waved and said: "Come!"

"Hello, Director Zhang! Hello, Director Chang! Hello, Director Gan!"

After entering, the two greeted Zhang Yimou, Chang Xiaoyang, and Gan Lu.

They also knew these three.

Zhang Yimou pointed to the stool beside him and said: "Sit down, I came to you today to confirm your roles."

He picked up the two scripts at hand and handed them to the two of them, and said: "You guys take a look at the script first. Chen Shuoqian's tentative role is Sui Feng, and Yu Bo's role is King Qi.

After reading it, you can also share your thoughts on the script and the characters in it. "

Chen Shuo and the others took the script and looked at it while Zhang Yimou continued to discuss the script with Wang Bin and others.

The background of the story is still the Qi State during the Warring States Period.

In 294 BC, Tian Jia, a nobleman of Qi State, kidnapped King Min of Qi.

After the defeat, Yin Tianjia and Mengchang Jun Tianwen had always been on good terms.

King Min of Qi deposed Lord Mengchang in anger and eradicated all his followers.

This not only led to the "hostility" between Mengchang and Qi.

It also gave Su Qin an excellent opportunity to use "political deception".

This script is adapted from the history of "Tianjia Tribulation King".

But now, the specific content has been separated from this historical story.

The main characters include: the blind girl Liu Ye, the young master Suifeng, his father, the eldest sister of Feidaomen, the second sister of Feidaomen and other main characters.

The story begins with the blind girl entering the palace as a dancer to perform her first dance.

After King Qi arrives, he will assassinate him after the second dance.

However, due to the attempted assassination, he was thrown into a cell and questioned about the purpose of his assassination.

Here it is explained that some people are dissatisfied with the ambition of King Qi and have been preparing to rebel. The most threatening one is Feidaomen.

The blind girl is most likely a disciple of the Feidao Sect.

The character who replaced Su Qin's identity in history was named father, but no specific name was given.

At his father's suggestion, King Qi planned to use the blind girl as bait to lead out the Flying Sword Gate, and then annihilate her in one fell swoop.

The person who performed this task was Young Master Suifeng.

Under the arrangement of his father, the young master Sui Feng pretends to be a knight who encounters injustice on the road and rescues the blind girl.

By the lake, the blind girl washed away the dust from her body, and Sui Feng named her Liu Ye.

The two talked freely about their ideals and decided to walk the world together.

Along the way, the two experienced several chases and ambushes, and their relationship gradually underwent many changes.

At the same time, the complicated life experience of the blind girl was also revealed bit by bit.

She was separated from her father when she was a child, and was picked up and raised by her eldest sister.

For the purpose of Feidaomen, she accepted her father's employment and went to assassinate King Qi.

On the way, her father appeared and recognized her, and the two of them were inexplicably moved.

The father dances with a sword, and at the climax he draws his sword and commits suicide, leaving a suicide note.

He said that she was snatched away by his eldest sister. Now he has no face to face her and her mother. He can only apologize with death and ask for her mother's forgiveness.

Liu Ye was grieved, and she and Sui Feng came to the Feidao Gate in disguise, preparing to challenge their eldest sister.

In the woods, the eldest sister fought with Liu Ye. Liu Ye was defeated and Sui Feng came to the rescue. The two of them walked while fighting.

Just when they thought they were out of danger, Liu Ye was kidnapped by her second sister and chased by the wind to the flower field.

The two fought with him and killed him, while Liu Ye was also seriously injured.

At this time, his father, who had committed suicide, suddenly appeared and said that all this was a trap set by him to eradicate the flying knife door.

On the surface, the second sister of Feidaomen is the person whom the eldest sister trusts the most, but in fact, she is an undercover agent placed by her father very early on.

Liuye's assassination of King Qi was also planned by him, with the purpose of gaining King Qi's trust through this conspiracy.

Sui Feng lost the battle with his father. In order to save Sui Feng, Liu Ye was stabbed by his father and died in Sui Feng's arms.

The eldest sister appears and resolves the grievances and conflicts between her and her father.

The two were originally a pair of lovers who were in love with each other, but they had different ideals.

One chose the court and the other chose the world. In the end, the two had irreconcilable conflicts and parted ways.

Liuye is the daughter of the two of them, but she was taken away by her father when she was a child and abandoned to her eldest sister for his own purposes.

Although the eldest sister didn't know that Liu Ye was her daughter, the special connection made her treat her as her own.

Liu Ye's betrayal made her sad, but her years of love made her deliberately let go and let Sui Feng rescue Liu Ye.

But later I felt something was wrong, so I turned back, and happened to encounter my father chasing the two of them, and found out what happened.

After clarifying their grievances, the two of them took out their swords at the same time.

There was a big battle, and the two of them were dying. Their lives were not long.

Finally, Suifeng inserted his sword beside the two of them, hugged the willow leaves and disappeared into the sea of ​​flowers.

After Chen Shuo read the script completely, he couldn't help but feel something was a little awkward.

The characters in the play seem to be a bit too childish.

However, he didn't think too much, but read it again and analyzed the character Sui Feng.

As the son of King Qi, Prince Suifeng pretended to rescue the blind girl Liu Ye and escorted her back to Feidaomen in order to trace the Feidaomen.

From using each other at the beginning, to loving each other until death, and being willing to give up their lives for each other.

Although the main perspective of the script has always followed Sui Feng and Liu Ye.

But the main plot hidden behind it is the game between the father and the eldest sister.

Both of them are just pawns in the game played by their father and eldest sister.

Perhaps there is still a nurturing relationship between the eldest sister and the blind girl.

But Sui Feng was just an ignorant young man who suddenly broke into the world and got involved in a grudge and conspiracy.

His purpose and identity are the clearest.

Judging from the content of the existing script, the roles are very simple and the performance is not difficult.

Whether it is fighting scenes, circus scenes or emotional scenes, it is nothing to Chen Shuo.

On the contrary, the scene of the blind girl Liu Ye was too complicated, and he was a little worried about whether Liu Yifei could handle the emotional changes involved.

As for Yu Bo's King Qi, apart from his initial appearance, there are no subsequent scenes.

It can be said that it is just a small supporting role.

Compared with TV scripts, movie scripts have very little content.

Even if Chen Shuo watched each scene carefully, it would only take an hour to watch it twice.

He and Yu Bo, who had also finished reading, looked at each other, put down the script and looked at Zhang Yimou, who had stopped discussing and was deep in thought.
