Chapter 164 Romeo and Juliet!
The struggle between Wen Baojing and Kang Yuchang is somewhat similar to Hu Qingniu and Wang Nangu in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", but it is definitely not that extreme. It is a small fight within the controllable range, which will not hurt your bones and can be enjoyed occasionally. The most important thing is that although the couple fights openly and secretly, they tacitly agree with each other's strength in their hearts.
So, when Liu Jingting was inexplicably outstanding, Professor Wen set up many levels for him according to convention and had to use his own standards to test his quality. At least she had to prove that if she finally recognized Liu Jingting, it had nothing to do with her husband, but because Liu Jingting passed her.
The drama festival happens to be a good opportunity. Since Liu Jingting is outstanding in writing, the drama festival cannot do nothing. Although the subject matter is different, there is always something to understand in the text. You are not required to write a work that shocks the literary world like "The True Story of Ah Q" or "The Little Prince", nor do you require 100% accurate subject matter, but at least the overall text feeling cannot be too disconnected.
This is what Professor Wen thinks is "very low requirement". After all, she did not demand the uniqueness of the subject matter, which left a lot of room for Liu Jingting.
However, Liu Jingting still "disappointed" her.
It is not a rigid novel structure or a generalized textual narrative, it is a serious, regular and authentic dramatic text.
The text is divided into six parts. The first part is the character introduction and the opening poem. The last five parts are the main text, namely the five curtains of the drama.
In fact, after watching the first scene, Professor Wen basically came to the conclusion that it seemed that a clever foodie had a good and bad judgment of the quality and disadvantages was just in an instant.
The book submitted by Liu Jingting obviously has the conditions for all mature scripts, and it has a faint sense of everyone's atmosphere.
"The script is fine, but I have to ask him two more questions myself," Professor Wen said to her husband without hesitation. "If he can give the right answer, I will apply for him to have the priority of omnichannel resources."
Director Kang smiled and handed the phone to his wife, saying, "You ask."
The call Liu Jingting received was called by Dean Wen using Director Kang's cell phone.
"Hey, Director."
"It's me."
"Dean?"
The change of the second and fourth tones gave the dialogue a certain humorous effect. Of course, Liu Jingting could not follow the inherent style and make a joke, but waited quietly for Dean Wen's response.
"I am Wen Baojing." Dean Wen's tone was very calm.
Liu Jingting was slightly stunned and then said, "Hello, Dean, I am Liu Jingting."
"I know, call you and ask you two questions."
"Director, please ask."
"Why do you want to write such a story?" Dean Wen asked without any pause.
Liu Jingting was silent and thought for a moment, and replied, "Because-I think this world is incomplete without Romeo and Juliet."
This is Liu Jingting’s true words, just like Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu, Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, etc. Without these people, the world is incomplete, and the most obvious manifestation is that it is awkward to communicate in normal times. For example, after Chu Liuxiang, everyone can call others a handsome XXX handsome, and after "The True Story of Ah Q", everyone can tease others a "too Ah Q".
An artistic image that has been integrated into life. In fact, it has become a part of life. Liu Jingting chose "Romeo and Juliet" for this reason. It is world-famous and immortal.
For many people, they may not know about Shakespeare's four major tragedies, but they must have heard of Romeo and Juliet. Many people even mistakenly believe that this drama is also one of the four major tragedies, which shows its popularity.
Dean Wen fell silent and did not comment on this answer. Ten seconds later, he asked again: "Then what do you think the road to this drama is?"
"The whole world." Liu Jingting replied without thinking, "The Grand Theater in London, Broadway in America will leave a mark."
"Okay, from now on, you are always in charge of this drama. You can call the relevant resources of the Academy of Literature and Arts, and I will try my best to fight for you. When do you want to start?"
"immediately!"
Although Liu Jingting had no doubts about the script, he was not sure about the behavior of transforming the script into a stage. After all, there were a group of unruly and spoiled noble children in the school. It was afraid that it would be difficult to operate it.
"good."
Dean Wen was very happy and agreed immediately.
After the call, Liu Jingting was stunned for a while. From junior high school to now, he has always adhered to a concept that "it doesn't matter that you can be fearless." When people and things are adhered to a certain balance line, they try to use gentle, plain and kind methods to solve the problem, help Zhao Kan, become "My Fair Princess", break out of Qianhong's contract, participate in the drama festival, etc.
People always have to do things, but they can't do just one thing. Since they have that ability, why not do it?
The pressure does exist, but it will not be overwhelmed. If it can be handled well, it can be transformed into motivation. Thinking of this, I feel expectation in my heart.
Liu Jingting threw the phone aside, continued to write, and wrote the novel "Taking the scam to the extreme".
...
When Lin Xun and Xu Yuan returned to the apartment, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Both of them looked not very good. They sat on the sofa in the living room and remained silent. After a few minutes, Xu Yuan gently hugged Lin Xun's shoulder and said, "If you don't act, don't act, you won't act anyway. Anyway, there will be more opportunities in the future."
Lin Xun snorted and said angrily: "I have been preparing for so long! If my strength is not good, I have nothing to say. Obviously not. Everyone says that it is fair and democratic. In the end, it is not nepotism, but it depends on relationships when you go back door."
"Because of this, we are not willing to act anymore." Xu Yuan comforted.
Lin Xun sat angrily for a while, finally couldn't bear it. She fell into Xu Yuan's arms and started crying, and said while crying: "Do you know that I've been memorizing lines in my dreams? I'm obviously not worse than any of them."
"I know, I know. They don't choose you because they have no vision, isn't it just for the student union election? Good drama performances have made a mess, and we are not happy to participate. Anyway, there is still time, at most we can write, direct and act."
Xu Yuan was comforting Lin Xun, Liu Jingting, Yang Lilu and Dai Anqiao walked out of the room. When the three of them saw the scene in front of them, they immediately guessed the reason.
"I should have guessed it long ago that as long as I connect it with the student union election, there will definitely be no way to be fair and fair. The world is like a crow, and the Wanxiang Student Union is just like this." Yang Lilu complained indignantly.
Dai'anqiao still maintained his true nature, although there was no lack of concern in his eyes.
"Liu Jingting, where is your script? Didn't it mean that the result will be released this afternoon?" Yang Lilu turned her head and looked at Liu Jingting and asked aggressively.
Liu Jingting said: "It's already past. I've been worried for the afternoon, but I'm afraid that the couple will be snatched away by others. I'll find the male and female protagonists again."
Xu Yuan turned to look at Liu Jingting and said, "Old Liu, aren't you kidding?"
Liu Jingting walked to Yang Lilu and sat down. Yang Lilu glared at him and moved to the left.
"Of course it's not a joke. Dean Wen called me in the afternoon and asked me to be fully responsible for this drama. Will she give me strong support? Is it because my way of speaking too naive, or is it that a childish face that makes you think I am untrustworthy?"
Liu Jingting clearly wanted to liven up the atmosphere. He spoke naturally and relaxed.
"There are both." Yang Lilu, who was sitting next to her, seized the opportunity and replied.
Dai Anqiao smiled silently, and Lin Xun suddenly sat up, her eyes still swaying with tears in her eyes. She looked at Liu Jingting and asked, "Then. Do you really lack actors?"
Liu Jingting smiled and said, "I don't have an actor now. I'll wait until you two recite a line for me. If possible, I'll save myself from finding the male and female protagonists."
This unexpected surprise caught Xu Yuan and Lin Xun off guard. They didn't know how to speak for a while. Liu Jingting smiled and said, "I know you don't trust me, but you guys, since I can make the TV series with the highest ratings, of course I can also make the drama that makes the world admire. This is a very simple logic, right?"
"No, no, no," Xu Yuan hurriedly denied, "As for Lin Xun and I, I will never have no confidence in Liu Shen. The reason why I care about that, well that..."
Liu Jingting continued: "Is it because they are sponsored by the Academy Entertainment Department and the most formal, official and authoritative team?"
Xu Yuan nodded awkwardly.
Liu Jingting disagreed and said, "The most authoritative person in the arts and arts will always be the Academy of Literature and Arts."
"This sentence is correct." Yang Lilu commented condescendingly.
"Xie Yang Banxian agreed."
"What did you say? Who is the Sheep Banxian?"
"There is something I want to say long ago," Liu Jingting looked at Yang Lilu seriously. "I think you have the attitude of an immortal, whether from your extraordinary appearance or your sharp and thorough knowledge, and you can't help but scream like this. Please don't be surprised."
"I also think you are the God of False God Liu."
"I was originally a false god, so the name of Sheep Banxian is correct."
"Liu Jingting, I'm not fighting against you, but my shame is not as thick as you. You came from an alien planet, right?"
Liu Jingting suddenly shook his mind, was stunned for a moment, and murmured: "It should be a parallel world. I didn't expect that after so long I came here, I finally met someone who could break my true identity."
Yang Lilu was frightened by Liu Jingting's unpredictable expression. She thought that it touched his thoughts. She did not continue to say it. Instead, a silent Dai'anqiao suddenly answered: "Shen Liu, you just said that the parallel world gave me an inspiration."
Liu Jingting turned his head and looked at Dai Anqiao and asked, "What inspiration, Schrödinger's theorem?"
"No, I'm thinking about building a virtual online social space recently. I think the name of Parallel World is good. Let me give these four words. If you want to make a website, please be a creative director."
"No problem, ha, Lao Dai, you are quite good at talking."
"Hey," Yang Lilu reached out and patted Liu Jingting on the shoulder, "Didn't you see anyone waiting for your script?"
"Oh, so I'll print out the script first. You two will take a look. If you think it's okay, I'll review it symbolically for a few lines. How about it?"
"No problem." Lin Xun replied while wiping her tears with facial paper.
"Liu Fake God, what's your script called?" Yang Lilu asked.
