I just want to be an actor

Chapter 188 "I'm Not the God of Medicine"

"It's late, go to sleep."

Su Jingwen hugged a blanket and put it on Zhou Sen's shoulders.

At this time, I don't know what time it is, but Zhou Sen is still at his desk and fighting at night. He is not worrying about other people's affairs, but working hard for himself.

There are countless A4 papers spread out on his desktop, on which the content of the script "The God of Medicine" is printed, and the dense black characters are filled with various marks and notes.

Zhou Sen worked hard this time.

He also worked very hard before, but he only needs to focus on his own role and make his role to the extreme.

But now he found a problem.

In fact, there were certain limitations in my own cognition before, and it was not just the actor's own performance that allowed a character to truly reach its peak.

It's the shaping of the whole story, the shaping of the whole plot.

The story and the characters complement each other. Without a good story, it is difficult to make a character even with the best characters.

Standing up here refers to the sense of reality that is close to reality.

Now the script "The God of Medicine" in Zhou Sen's hand, the story is already very good, and the character design is also well done,
But he always felt a little bit awkward in handling some details. In the past few days, he has been constructing a new dream world in his dreams while sleeping, perfecting the details of the script over and over again.

This is also the first time that he has completely brought the adjustments in the dream world into reality.

Of course, this is also the first time that Zhou Sen, as the director with the highest decision-making power, arranges everything.

This feeling has never been there before.

At that time, he worked part-time as an assistant director in "Embroidered Spring Knife", and he only provided Lu Yang with inspiration. He was more of an evaluator than a creator.

Now that Zhou Sen has taken on the role of creator, the pressure is naturally greater than before.

"Okay, go and rest first, I'll be fine soon."

Zhou Sen gently kissed Su Jingwen's face, and told her to rest first, instead of staying up late with him.

But Su Jingwen seems to have a posture that if you don't sleep, I won't sleep. She sat next to Zhou Sen and looked at the book in her hand. After reading the script on the screen, she hugged Su Jingwen to rest.

Recently, he has repeatedly entered the dream world, and he has firmly remembered the mood and state of the protagonist Cheng Yong.

He even felt that Cheng Yong's personality had begun to appear in his body, but he was completely under his control.

He feels that this may be the effect of his own ability becoming more mature and complete. He doesn't know what it should be called, but he knows that it can help him shape the character better, and that's enough.

Zhou Sen actually didn't like the name "The God of Medicine" very much.

This story is adapted from real events. In order to better complete this story, Zhou Sen also got in touch with the prototypes of the characters, and had an in-depth chat with them in the past few days.

The story of "The God of Medicine" is actually not complicated.

Cheng Yong, the middle-aged owner who originally opened an Indian oil shop, lived a very useless life, and his originally muddle-headed life also ushered in a crisis.His father was critically ill, and his Indian oil shop was out of business, so he couldn't make up the surgery fee.At this time, his ex-wife had remarried to a rich man, and wanted to take away the custody of his most beloved son.Cheng Yong, who had lost hope, was found in his shop by Lao Lu, a leukemia patient, and asked him to go to India to bring some special medicines that can treat cancer, but those medicines are generic drugs, and smuggling generic drugs is illegal.Desperate, Cheng Yong took the risk, organized a team, and embarked on the road of smuggling generic drugs.Even though he went for the money at the beginning, he also saved countless leukemia patients who could not afford the sky-high price of genuine drugs.However, after competitors appeared, the authorities strictly investigated the source of generic drugs. Cheng Yong, who was afraid of going to jail, chose to give up smuggling, opened his own clothing factory, and became a legitimate big boss.But when Lao Lu passed away, the old man was disappointed, Cheng Yong chose to start again when he had seen all the poor patients' lives.

This time, he sold the medicine at a loss, really just to provide medicine for leukemia patients in the country.But what followed was a dangerous multi-party tug-of-war.

In this story, everyone is just the most ordinary ordinary people in life.But this kind of realistic portrayal of grassroots group portraits has brought the tenacious life stories, daily, ordinary, humble, and desperate lives of the little people to a height worthy of admiration.

Zhou Sen likes this script very much, but he always feels that this script should have a more suitable name.

The name "The God of Medicine" may not be in line with the character's archetype's thoughts and wishes. Zhou Sen didn't think of the most suitable name in his mind until Shen Qingqiu was about to audition for the role.

"I'm not a drug god"

Perhaps this sense of contradiction can make people understand the emotions and mental journey of the characters.

Everyone is actually just a mortal, an ordinary person, no one is a real god, only the courage to overcome oneself, and never give up in the face of life.

I hope that poverty is no longer the original sin of life, and I also hope that the world no longer needs the God of Medicine.

For this reason, Zhou Sen personally revised the ending of the script many times.

In his opinion, perhaps the ending without any ups and downs is the one that can leave the deepest mark in the hearts of the audience.

The script that Zhou Sen got in his hand ended with Cheng Yong, with the help of his fellow patients, finally the prosecution withdrew the prosecution and Cheng Yong was acquitted.

Although this highlights the feeling that good people will be rewarded, Zhou Sen's intuition told him that this seems a bit inappropriate.

This may not be in line with the role of positive publicity. If everyone can fight against the law because of public opinion, then the law will be useless.

But if the ending is set to be unreasonable, it will seem too realistic, and it is not suitable for positive values.

What he struggles with the most these days is this ending.

He needs to constantly measure whether there is any problem with the promotion of values. It must not violate the fairness of the national judicial system and the sanctity of the law, and must not destroy the kind of humanity in people's minds, and must not let the image of the judiciary become useless. The presence of human touch.

Among them, how to adjust the scale is the biggest problem.

But until the audition agreed with Shen Qingqiu, Zhou Sen still didn't think about the ending arrangement.

He could only take Su Jingwen to the location where Shen Qingqiu was going to audition, and sent Shen Qingqiu the location, first to test the level of the only female lead in the lead group.
