[Time]: [-] | November [-], [-]

【Location】: England, London, 221 B Baker Street; reception room on the second floor

[Characters]: Sherlock Holmes, Jane Nan, Watson

[Guide D] (holding a small speaker): Attention all departments, the third act of the first scene, preparations, start!

[Holmes] (looking at Jane Nan calmly): Miss Jane, please sit down.You can safely tell me everything in detail, although I still don't know anything about you-except that you are from China, and although you came from a good family, you have recently undergone major changes.By the way, this is my friend Dr. Watson, I believe you will not mind his presence.

[Jian Nan] (shocked): God, you, how do you know this?Seriously, how do you know I'm from China?

[Holmes] (smiling): This is just a trivial question, not worth wasting time on.Let's talk about the purpose of your visit.

[Jian Nan]: Oh, it may seem unremarkable to you, but I really want to know, how did you explain my background in one word.

[Watson] (interrupting): Yes, Holmes.I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm curious too.

[Holmes] (slightly helpless): Well, if you insist on finding out. (puts fingers together, sits back) First, I realize when you come in, this is a lady from the East End.The shape of your hat, the dirt on the soles of your shoes, and the tung oil on your gloves all testify to this.Your accent is not pure, it has Asian characteristics, but your grammar is correct and your diction is rigorous, so I conclude that you are of good family background and highly educated.Apparently you are facing the dilemma of life again, very poor and down-to-earth-you have a hole in the corner of your hat, but you didn't repair it, you just sewed it up with a needle and thread.Your elbows, knees are badly worn, and combined with the fact that you're from the East End, I assume you work in the docks for a living.A lady of good birth has to struggle to survive in East London, and I can think of no other reason than the cataclysm.

[Jian Nan] (eyes shining): Then how do you know that I am from China?Although it is obvious that I am Asian at a glance, why don't you say that I am Japanese or Korean?

[Holmes] (smiling): This question took me a while. Of course, it doesn't take into account whether you are Japanese or Korean. You must be Chinese.The only question that needs to be resolved is whether you are from China or British with Asian descent.

[Watson] (raising eyebrows): Why can't this lady be Japanese or Korean?

[Holmes] (impatiently): Come on, Watson, the answer to this question is right in front of you.Although they are both of Asian race, there is no doubt that there are subtle differences in facial features between Chinese, Japanese, and Korean.Although I don't know much about Asia, the fact that I have done some interesting research in the East End is as clear to me as the sun rises in the east. (laughs) But what's really interesting is judging where you grew up, there are definitely two possibilities - you grew up in that mysterious East and came to Great Britain for some reason, or you grew up in England, but you still have the flow The blood of that ancient nation.I prefer the latter because you put your last name first when you introduce yourself, which is an Asian habit.And I noticed that you have a Chinese sachet in your pocket, which is an exquisite workmanship only found in China, so there is no doubt that you got this souvenir from there.Its surface has been polished smooth and shiny, and it is obviously old, at least ten years old.Maybe you went to China once as a child and treasured it as a souvenir.But I am more inclined that this is something left to you by your relatives. You have recently come to Great Britain for some reason and cannot return to the country, so you take it as a consolation-because you often caress it unconsciously, just when you So far, you have repeated this action three times.

[Jian Nan] (stunned, covered her mouth after a while, and forcibly suppressed the urge to cry): Mr. Holmes, you must help me.You are so powerful, you must be able to help me, right?

[Holmes] (smiling): The premise is that you have to tell me the matter.

[Guide D]: Card!The scene ends.

Jian Nan excitedly ran to the director and asked, "Director D, how is my performance?"

Director D sneered: "Look for yourself, it's a mess. When you should be emotional, you act like a facial paralysis, and when you should restrain your emotions, you look like a crazy celery. God knows what you learned in school." Director D said Lowering your voice, "Although you are my niece, so you can easily join this crew, but please work hard. There are so many eyes watching, where do you want my face to be placed?"

Jian Nan blushed: "I'm sorry director, I will work hard."

"Learn well from Mr. Fu and Mr. Hua," D's lead said earnestly, "It's easy for me to invite these two big names. You watch their plays, their emotional grasp, their sense of camera, their looks... "

Jian Nan coughed: "Forget about my appearance, my mother won't let me have plastic surgery."

"Heh," Director D sneered, "Okay, work hard. If you can't do it, I'll change the heroine in the next movie."

Jian Nan said pleasantly, "Is there a next one?"

"Yes, the book is almost finished." Director D shouted, "Ah T, how is it?"

The screenwriter T on the side helped his eyes and replied: "The book is finished, but it still needs to be revised. The tentative protagonists are Doctor Who and Doctor Strange."

"That can make a 'magic combination', catchy." D came up with a bad idea.

Jian Nan said obsequiously: "What about me? How about calling it the 'Magic Nan' combination? Or the 'Qinan God' combination?"

"Go, go, don't disturb me." Director D waved his hand, and then said to the screenwriter, "You rewrite this paragraph, and delete the reasoning process. Then we will reshoot."

Before the screenwriter expressed his opinion, Jian Nan protested first: "Why did you change the script?"

"The reasoning part is easy to be criticized. If you explain things clearly, you will lose your sense of mystery." Director D vowed, "The audience will feel that it is not subtle enough, and it will be troublesome to ask various questions. It is better to give it directly. As a result, the intermediary reasoning is omitted, which works extremely well."

Jian Nan rolled his eyes: "Then why are you filming this segment?"

Director D thought for a while: "Let's save it as a sideshow and release it later."
