This actor just wants to verify

On the day of the concert, everyone got together for a simple rehearsal.

After all, we need to find our form and test the equipment.

Zhou Xun is Park Seok's ex, but there is no awkwardness between the two.

They are still like friends.

Zhou Xun even had dinner with Park Seok and his wife.

It is easy to fall in love with this circle, but it seems easy to let go.

Xu Wei also arrived early.

He has two concerts planned this year.

He held one in the capital in August, and there will be another one in Tianjin in December.

He auditioned seriously and rehearsed on the spot.

Musicians of this era are very serious. After all, Xu Wei almost gave up his music career after experiencing the difficult days of uncertainty.

He cherishes his current stable life and career.

Jay Chou and Chen Guanxi also came.

Everyone sat together and listened to Xu Wei singing "Blue Lotus", and inevitably a lot of confusion arose.

People will have problems after listening to Xu Wei and Park Seok's songs too much.

"What is this?" Hao Yun was surprised when Jay Chou handed him a paper bag.

Could it be filled with cash?

"It's the script I wrote. I've always wanted to be a director and hope to make a movie about music or young people. I told you last time that I want you to help me take a look." Jay Chou was a little embarrassed.

He was just a singer, and suddenly he got involved in the film and television industry as an actor.

Now he's starting to be a screenwriter and director.

He doesn't know if he will be misunderstood as not doing his job properly.

"So fast, you're really good." The other Hao Yun, who had already been not doing his job properly, smiled and opened the file bag.

It felt like peeking at someone else's diary.

Hao Yun read it very slowly, not because he was reading the script for his brother, so he read it carefully.

But because the script was a little too complicated.

This movie tells the story of a piano genius, Ye Xianglun, who transferred to an art school and met Lu Xiaoyu, who played mysterious piano music, in an old piano practice room, and then unfolded a fantasy love story.

The first half of the script does tell a subtle and moving love story.

But soon, Hao Yun discovered that this was a love story that traveled between two eras and across time and space.

Hao Yun has read a huge amount of films, perhaps more than many professional directors.

He has also been exposed to many scripts.

He has also learned a lot of screenwriter attributes.

Over time, Hao Yun's level is definitely not much worse than that of ordinary screenwriters.

So, he soon realized that there were two big problems with this script.

One is that the script is suspected of being pieced together.

There are several obvious clips, and Hao Yun has read the original work.

One is that Xiaoyu traveled through time and space to meet Xiaolun 20 years later. The two fell in love with each other, but always missed each other in surprises and regrets, which has the shadow of "Untouchable Lovers".

"Untouchable Lovers" is a love film directed by Lee Hyun-seung and starring Lee Jung-jae and Jeon Ji-hyun. It was released in 2000.

Another one is that Xiaoyu and Xiaolun in real life sit in front of the piano and play a beautiful and romantic four-hand piano, which is very similar to "Ghost".

In addition, the scene of Xiaolun and his senior playing the piano also borrowed from the classic plot of "The Legend of 1900".

"The Legend of 1900" is a classic work in 1998.

Lastly, the scene of Xiaolun and Xiaoyu using correction fluid to travel through time and space through the desk is a replica of the dialogue between Harry and Voldemort through the notebook in "Harry Potter".

However, these are not big problems.

Such similar plots, or tribute plots, will not be accused of plagiarism no matter where they are taken.

Hao Yun's "Heart Labyrinth" also has some shadows of classic movies.

Therefore, Hao Yun thinks that the first problem is not a problem.

It is precisely the cleverness of Jay Chou.

For the first work of a newcomer, it is best not to be too ambitious, and the industry is also very tolerant of this approach.

However, the second problem is fatal.

"Jay, there is a big problem..." Hao Yun feels that there are many other areas that can be improved, but if this second problem is not solved, Jay Chou will probably lose both fame and fortune.

"What's the problem?" Jay Chou was refreshed.

"Don't you think the threshold for watching movies is a bit high? I guess most people can't understand it, at least it's unlikely to understand it after watching it once. If they don't understand it the first time, do you think they will just say it's a bad movie, or buy a ticket to watch it again, or even watch it three or five times?"

Hao Yun thinks this question is too fatal.

"Heart Labyrinth" has similar problems.

But even if you don't understand it completely, or only understand half of it, it doesn't affect it as a good story.

What's more, the audience of "Heart Labyrinth" is suspense film lovers.

But "Secret" is mostly watched by romance film lovers in the cinema.

It can't be said that there is a gap in IQ between the two types of fans, at least there is an insurmountable gap in deciphering.

Hao Yun also speaks frankly because he sees Jay Chou as his brother.

If you ask other screenwriters, he will definitely say that the script is very good, the creativity is also very good, and all kinds of foreshadowing and settings have been polished very well.

"How do you think I should change it?" Jay Chou asked Hao Yun.

After Hao Yun said this, he also felt that due to the setting and structure of the story, this story is indeed not easy to understand.

They studied the script over and over again, and they themselves had no difficulty understanding it.

In the dark, I ignored the question of whether others could understand it for the first time.

"One is in 1979 and the other is in 1999. For different time and space, you can choose different tones, or some other things that readers can discover and use as a 'mark' to identify which time and space it belongs to." Hao Yun could only think of these for a while.

"This is a good idea." Zhou Jielun nodded vigorously.

"In addition, you made it so pure love in the first half, but the emotional foreshadowing is actually not enough..." Hao Yun made a few more suggestions.

"Emotional foreshadowing... hehe!" Chen Guanxi, who came back from rehearsal, laughed at this.

What kind of foreshadowing? You have already met each other but you don't go to get a room. Are you waiting for the New Year or something.

"Shut up!" Hao Yun and Zhou Jielun scolded him together.

Then Jay Chou thought for a while and said:

"You think it makes sense. The main reason is that the story structure of the movie is relatively complex. It is necessary to make enough foreshadowing and settings. If the audience can understand it in a simpler way, more time can be spent on emotions."

Hao Yun is worthy of being the best screenwriter in Cannes. He really helped him see a lot of problems.

"For the first movie, it is actually mainly about polishing the script. Once the script is polished, just find the right people to play it."

That's how Hao Yun did it.

"Ayun, are you interested in acting? How about you and An Xiaoxi playing the male and female protagonists?"

Jay Chou doesn't necessarily have to play it himself.

He knows his own business. As for acting, the reason why he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer is that the role fits him well.

His immature performance just matches Takumi's personality.

If he changes his character, his acting skills will become the shortcoming of the movie. It's better to find Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi to play.

He admires Hao Yun's acting skills. He can play any type of role.

His main job is a singer, and Hao Yun's main job is an actor.

"Forget it, just figure it out yourself, it will help you understand the movie more deeply."

Hao Yun thought the script was okay, but he didn't plan to bring An Xiaoxi to play.

"You can let Xixi and Jay play." Chen Guanxi squeezed between the two of them, picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank half of it.

"It will officially start after the rehearsal, be careful not to pee too much and go to the toilet," Hao Yun first complained about Chen Guanxi, and then said seriously: "I read the script, but I don't think it's suitable for An Xiaoxi. Do you still remember Gui Lunmei who presented you the Golden Horse Award? I think she is quite suitable."

"I'll think about it, let's revise the script first."

Chou Jielun didn't think of asking An Xiaoxi to play, Chen Guanxi said.

An Xiaoxi has been replaced on the stage for rehearsal. She has arranged four songs to sing today, two of which are duets with Hao Yun.

One is "Wind Blowing Wheat Waves" and the other is "Little Dimples".

Without "Marry Me Today", Hao Yun rehearsed this song whenever he had time. He almost vomited from rehearsals.

"Come on, the quality of this movie is very good, but you should also be prepared to be criticized, just like me. When my "Heart Labyrinth" was first released, many people questioned whether it was Uncle Jiang who filmed it under my name."

Hao Yun reminded Jay Chou.

A new director, and a new director who turned singer, will definitely face more doubts than an ordinary director.

This doubt cannot even be eliminated.

Unless you make a better movie than your debut.

If you don't believe it, just look at Chen Kaige.

He broke the rumor that his father ghostwrote "Farewell My Concubine" without any evidence. He just needed to make a better movie than "Farewell My Concubine".
