After getting Shidi at the start

Chapter 139 Standard Keyboard Man

Rather than saying that Li Mingji was giving advice, it would be better to say that he was expressing his dissatisfaction with that movie in his previous life.

Why do you feel so happy when you read some novels that travel to that world and see that the heroine is robbed and greened?This is not just a tauren, but because this dog-licking gesture is annoying to see, I want to torture him.

It's like when I watched the movie, I felt tortured by the protagonist.

Of course, the protagonist is not to blame for this matter, it is all a matter of the screenwriter's setting.

Either you simply make the lovers go through hardships and finally get married, or you don’t want to engage in the heroine at all, and the male drama is completely male drama.

It’s like an action movie in which the three male protagonists were almost killed by the villain alone but ended up being killed by the plot. There is almost no love in the movie. If it’s brotherhood, it’s good enough, but the protagonist’s aura in the ending is too serious. , it is better to let the villain win - although this is impossible.

Setting such a heroine in this kind of movie not only makes the protagonist's image much humbler, but also makes the heroine less lovable. How can the audience like such two protagonists?
The final result is that everyone likes the eldest brother the most, but regrets the third brother the most. Even the senior brother of the third brother is more likable than the hero and heroine.

It’s not necessarily that everyone likes that, but after comparison, they choose a relatively better one.

No matter how much the director thinks he cares about these plots and how much he thinks about designing characters, the audience has their own thoughts and feelings, and it is impossible to be directly led away.

In fact, when I watched the movie, the impact was not that big, but when I think about it after watching it, I will feel that the plot design is worse than not.

The original movie was actually very compact, but it happened to slow down the pace on the side of the heroine, which directly affected the evaluation of the movie.

"Then what you want," Lu Xing now regarded Li Mingji as a real subject of discussion, not just a predetermined male protagonist, "I will directly set the male and female protagonists to be together, but because of the redemption, It requires money, and the actor doesn’t have that much money.

"So he tried every means to get money, but in the end he was messed up in a conspiracy, and then the supporting role also needed to be deleted for him?"

Li Mingji shook his head and said with a smile: "There is no need to delete that part of the scene, just the simple passer-by relationship is fine, and even the part of the broken hand and helping him commit suicide can be kept, so that the characters can also be enriched.

"After all, that person's family was framed as an eunuch, and the protagonist "helped the tyrant to abuse", but later found out that he really wanted to and decided to take revenge, went to see him and was entrusted by him to kill himself, this is no more pure than some love between men and women Is it even more shocking?"

Lu Xing nodded thoughtfully. With this modification, the outline of his script has not changed much. The only difference is that the protagonist and heroine, and even the character of the supporting actor have been slightly changed.

But in this way, I really feel that the hero and heroine are much more pleasing, and the starting point of acting is more convincing.

Is it more touching whether a licking dog makes efforts for a goddess who originally had no interest in him, or whether it is a man who makes efforts for love, brotherhood, and to be with someone he likes and likes him, which is more likely to resonate with people? ?
As for the sacrifice of the elder brother and the third younger brother, Li Mingji felt that it was still necessary. It is impossible to have a perfect reunion, and there are always some regrets.

However, the male protagonist did something wrong to satisfy the elder brother's long-cherished wish, and the elder brother sacrificed for the safety and happiness of the brother. Isn't this kind of mutual recognition and dedication greater than the original effort to lick the dog's stinky younger brother?

There is no need to move the line of the third brother, it is already full enough, and if it is changed again, it will overwhelm the host.

Li Mingji looked at Lu Xing, and actually understood his desire to add something to the script.

This guy has an artistic face at first glance - can you tell?
But from the essence of the story, this movie should be made into an action movie, not a literary movie.

That being the case, it is not appropriate to include less of the literature and art.

A director should know how to use strengths and avoid weaknesses, not only for himself, but also for the movie.

At this moment, Lu Xing turned around again, and smiled at Wang Fengze: "It seems that this time I came to find Teacher Ming Ji and I really found the right one. I want to add him to the list of screenwriters."

"Don't, don't..." Li Mingji immediately waved his hands and smiled bitterly: "It's okay for me to offer suggestions, but I really don't know anything about writing scripts. And what I said is actually just my personal opinion. I'm a bit of an outsider guiding an insider. Director Lu Thank goodness for not being disgusted with me pointing fingers."

Lu Xing couldn't help laughing and said: "Where will it be? I said before that I can give my opinion, listen to it or not, but it is impossible to let you say it well? Besides, what Teacher Ming said is indeed very reasonable, Instead, I didn’t think about it.”

Li Mingji nodded secretly in his heart, this Lu Xing seems to be a close friend, he really looks good, and there is no trace of intentional acting at present.

Being able to accept opinions is already hard to come by.

Just like the director Zhang of the "Bodyguard" crew that he just worked with before, although he usually seems to be easy-going and nice, but he is actually a bit arbitrary when it comes to what he thinks he is good at.

If it weren't for the fact that there are so many places he hasn't touched before in this movie, he may become another kind of set tyrant.

But Wang Fengze smiled and said, "I don't think it's because you didn't think well, but because you, Director Lu, thought too much. Just like Teacher Ming Ji said, it's better to keep some settings simple, otherwise the audience won't be able to comprehend them at all.

"By the way, didn't Mr. Ming also say that the female characters in this drama are too weak or something? Do you think it is necessary to modify it, such as the identity of the heroine, or add other female characters? ?”

Li Ming said sternly: "It depends on your positioning. If you really want to follow the traditional martial arts routines, then the female characters are just icing on the cake, and mostly serve as vases. But if you want to attract female audiences, then the female characters are just fine." It's a vase, and it has to be a vase that doesn't hold back."

In the movie of the previous life, by the time of the second movie, the status of female characters has suddenly risen.

If the first film is a purely male drama, even if there are actresses in the drama, they are either pure vases, or they are played by men, then in the second film, even if the heroine has a role, she still does not change the true nature of the vase Under the circumstances, the supporting actress is relatively prominent.

Li Mingji thinks this is an advantage, and it can be regarded as one of the few bright spots in the second part, which is worth absorbing.

After all, major female lead dramas are popular in the TV circle now, regardless of whether they are fake or not, they can at least attract the attention of many female viewers.

In the current film and television market, women are indeed a large group, and even a group with potential to be developed.

Not to mention the development of the current Valentine's Day schedule, even when couples go out on a date to watch a movie, the woman's choice is also very important, so if it can be made into a movie that attracts female audiences and male audiences will not be disgusted, it is already It was a huge success.

A movie like this is destined to be unable to be made into a family carnival, so we can only work hard on the female characters, either in love or in the female characters themselves.

"Uh, you mean to set the heroine as a chivalrous woman?" Lu Xing was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he became a little excited, as if he had a new idea.

Li Mingji shook his head and said with a smile: "Director Lu, you still don't understand what I mean. In the ancient environment, women mostly took care of the house, so she should be the best harbor for men after fighting outside. , Give a man a feeling of home.

"For example, many of the female characters in those early gangster films in Peninsula played this kind of role. Since it is a vase, why not just be a complete vase, without having to talk about love and hate? Just simple love will do.

"Too many elements in a drama can be an advantage, but if it is too messy, it is a disadvantage. Obviously, the relationship between the characters can be set simpler. There is no need for enmity, and there is no need to increase the fighting scenes of female characters. Simply, he likes her and wants to take her away, and she is willing to go with him.

"But because of the heroine's status, she must have enough money to take her away, and the male protagonist's own salary is not enough, so he came up with the idea of ​​this money. A sum of money can solve the problems of his three brothers at the same time, Isn't it a good deal?
"It's just that he thought a little more simply, which also brought bad results. Then he used money to redeem the heroine. When he was about to take the heroine away, he was found by the villain, and then the hero killed those Minions, just in time the villain came over and started fighting with him.

"But the villain is too strong, and he couldn't fight at first. At the critical moment, the heroine picked up a crossbow and shot at the villain, saved him in time, and then jumped into the nearby river with him.

"Here, we can set the background of the heroine. It doesn't have to be an official lady, it can be the daughter of a military household, so that the heroine can be regarded as a good match, and it also fits the background of the time? It can even be said to be a fisherman's daughter. This is The foreshadowing of diving here.

"Then the heroine dragged the injured actor away by relying on her swimming skills, and was about to go to the doctor for treatment, and then met his dead third brother there. Well, it happened to be connected."

In fact, Li Mingji didn't think so much before, even when he watched the movie in his previous life, he didn't think so much when he watched the movie in his previous life. patches.

To be honest, if he wants to say which part of this movie he is most dissatisfied with, it should be this part.

There are a few big problems here. One is that the hero wants to take the heroine away, but the heroine is unwilling to leave. When the assassins attack, she still looks willing to die. Eating dead fish eyes can definitely make people feel uncomfortable from the heart.

However, the male lead still looks like a dog licking a dog. He would rather die to pull the female lead up to block swords and guns for her. Although this still can't change the slightest fluctuation in the actress' eyes, this also leads to a slight change in the back unexpected.

Of course, this can be due to the lack of performance of the actors, but it is also true that the plot is not self-consistent enough.

And the fight with the villain in the back is even more nonsense. In the end, there was a certain time and opportunity, but he didn't take the opportunity to make up the knife. Although it is understandable to pave the way for the final battle, it really feels insulting to IQ.

Even if you stepped forward and pretended to make up the knife, and then suddenly a pursuer broke in and interrupted it, this can also explain the past.

Especially with the protagonist's innate ability to kill bosses, he doesn't have to worry about not having enough blue bars, so why is he hesitating here?
And then the part where the hero walks in the snow with the heroine on his back, I have to say, it’s very beautiful when viewed alone, the composition is really amazing in the dead of night, red clothes and white snow.

But under the circumstances at that time, after thinking about it a little bit, I felt that it was so inconsistent.

There is no chasing soldiers in the relationship at all, so why didn't you make up the knife before?

In short, if it weren't for this stretching of the hips, Li Mingji felt that he could give this drama another one point of evaluation, instead of just the ordinary 7.5 points.

Listening to Li Mingji's long speech, Lu Xing and Wang Fengze glanced at each other, and they could see the excitement in each other's eyes.

In fact, when compiling this paragraph, Lu Xing himself felt that something was wrong, and he also mentioned it to Wang Fengze.

It's just that the two of them discussed it but still didn't think there was anything wrong, because the plot was derived in this way, and they didn't think about looking at it completely outside the framework set before.

But now I find that the kind of character that is fixed from the beginning is not easy to play here.

And Li Mingji's change is very good. The hero and heroine themselves do not have any conflicts, but they support each other in difficult times. The role of the heroine is also highlighted. It is no longer a seemingly key figure in the plot, but in reality it is just a burden. vase.

"Okay, it's really great! Although I've already said it, I still want to say it again, this trip is really the right one, even if you don't join us in the end, Mr. Mingji..."

Lu Xing was excited for a while, and then he suddenly came to his senses while talking, and quickly scratched his head and smiled innocently: "Uh, just pretend I didn't say that?"

These words made everyone laugh, and Brother Wang and Xiaoguang, who had been listening, also laughed, and then gradually calmed down from the previous surprise.

Compared to Lu Xing and the other two, they knew Li Mingji better after all, and they never expected him to have such a skill.

It wasn't like this when he talked about scripts with people in the past. Although he always talked people to nothing, it was another angle of nothing to say.

This time, however, it was obvious that Lu Xing, the screenwriter, was really persuaded to accept Li Mingji's opinion, and he might even refer to this modification.

When did he have this skill?

Li Mingji didn't think there was anything wrong. He had read so many novels in his previous life, and had studied some story modes. As an audience, he also had some conclusions of his own, but it just happened to come into play at this time.

Of course, being able to speak well is an advantage, but no matter how eloquently you speak, writing and doing it is another matter.

To put it simply, isn't he the standard behavior of a keyboard warrior in reality?
