Wang Wen was almost fed up with Zheng Guolin.

The beautiful love story he wrote, came to Zheng Guolin's hands and changed his appearance and became a hodgepodge.

After Zheng Guolin made such a fuss, the male protagonist was obviously not his second uncle, and Zheng Guolin even said "your second uncle". Do you think it's annoying?

Zheng Guolin also realized that it is not appropriate to call the male and female protagonists like this. The key is that Wang Wen is unwilling to do so. Isn’t this ruining his relatives?

He changed his name directly and said, "These two bad guys have to be with you, oh, no, work in the same unit as the male and female protagonists, so that they can get out of the show. In addition, I think there are still too few characters. Just two families, how can they shoot dozens of episodes of TV? They have to add people."

Wang Wen reminded him, "You have never seen that Shikumen before? There are too many people who can't live in it, and one or two families are good. In the past, they all had separate courtyards. After the Liberation War, the original owner ran away and arranged some poor people in, changing one household to two households."

Zheng Guolin nodded and said, "Well, it's right. So, Shikumen can't be taken anymore, it's necessary to be converted into an alley. There are more than a dozen families living in an alley. Is this okay? Moreover, the alleys in the past were very narrow and closed, and many families share a kitchen, which makes it easier to develop stories, right?"

This idea makes sense.

Before Wang Wen could figure it out, Zheng Guolin continued to slap in his own way.

"We need to add a few people with the characteristics of the times. For example, the ladies from the old society, cadres from the new society, as well as old workers, old intellectuals, their children, young and strong in the factory, what kind of performance will they be in that era? What kind of story will happen to them when they live together in an alley? What kind of intersection will arise with the male and female protagonists? In this way, the story will be full, right? Let's continue to compile it."

Wang Wen's head is big.

God, he thought that although he had written novels for so many years, his brains would definitely be bigger than others. When he saw Zheng Guolin today, he realized that he had a brains that were born to be bigger than others, so he was considered an eye-opener.

If Zheng Guolin writes online novels, he will definitely be much better than him.

The three of them discussed the story outline for a week. Then, Wang Wen had to write down all the things Zheng Guolin said, form words, and give them to him to read. He was satisfied and then he finished it completely.

If you have an outline, it means the detailed outline, which is the plot of every episode of TV.

This took time. It took three of them a whole month to write more than 40 episodes. This was when Zheng Guolin knew the plot.

In another month, Wang Wen finally wrote the first episode of the script.

Wang Wen has been creating literary works, which requires him to pass the Mandarin. His Mandarin is indeed very standard.

He is also a native and often speaks of slang.

When writing conversations, he was able to skillfully integrate local slang into Mandarin so that everyone could understand it while also feeling the strong atmosphere of local life.

Not only Wu Xi, a local, can read a strong atmosphere of life when reading his script, but even Zheng Guolin can feel this atmosphere, filling the entire script.

The only regrettable thing is that Wang Wen has no experience in creating scripts, and he does not consider the scenes and details of the story well.

This is also the fundamental reason why he wrote an episode of the script for a month.

If you don’t make the scene as detailed as possible, and when you are filming, let the art tools and sets imagine at will, then you won’t mess up the entire script?

Faced with Zheng Guolin's dissatisfaction, Wang Wen reflected deeply.

He drew all the scenes used in the script into real scenes, and then described them in detail in words.

Fortunately, this guy is versatile and has calligraphy and painting skills. This skill is not something that ordinary people can do.

Not only that, he also summarized another experience from this matter, that is, every character, personality, age, way of speaking, voice, sharpness, thinness, and roughness, he deliberately described it separately. When writing the dialogue, each has its own characteristics, but if you don’t write about who said it, you can feel it yourself.

When the first episode was written and revised repeatedly and finally finalized, Zheng Guolin knew that under his constant request, a first-class screenwriter was about to be born.

In the future, Wang Wen would probably be able to make a lot of money by writing market TV series alone.

However, this guy sold him to him for ten years in a daze, and I am afraid that he will only be able to serve the film and television company he will be about to set up in the future.

Although Zheng Guolin used his experience to trick Wang Wen and tricked him into signing a sales contract, he had no intention of cheating him. As long as he was honest and obedient, he carefully created scripts for him and the film was sold for money, he still had to take out part of the profit and give it to him as a bonus.

The first episode was finalized, and the second episode was a little faster. It only took half a month, and then Wang Wen could get one episode a week.

Zheng Guolin didn't want him to write too quickly, for fear that he would not be able to guarantee the quality.

When he wrote more than twenty episodes, Zheng Guolin began to ask Wu Xi to contact the director with a notebook.

Zheng Guolin also has requirements for directors. The first is to film several TV series that have received good responses, with certain skills and popularity.

Second, I have filmed such TV series that reflects the lives of ordinary people in the city. I have experience in this area and have good responses.

There are not many directors who meet the conditions in S City. This saves Wu Xi a lot of trouble.

Others are directors holding books and sending people everywhere to attract sponsorships and seeking funds.

Zheng Guolin is good, he has funds, so he goes to the director, and the director team will find other cast members.

The script is good and rich, so it's easy to find a director.

Zheng Guolin couldn't remember who the director of this drama in his previous life was, so he could only hit the dead mouse like he was looking for Wang Wen.

However, if the crew is established, Zheng Guolin wants to be the producer and Wu Xi wants to be the producer. This is a prerequisite and cannot be negotiated.

Zheng Guolin has the final say on how to shoot the TV series and how it works. He can't watch it, so he has to reshoot it.

Big-name directors generally cannot accept such harsh conditions.

You layman, what do you know? You have the final say? Why do you still ask me for your own actions?

After several famous directors came to find him, none of them could accept such a treaty that was humiliating. No matter how good the book is, I will not accept it no matter how rich you are!

Soon, things came to a deadlock again.

Wu Xi was also a little dissatisfied with Zheng Guolin's approach.

Just as the famous directors said, you don’t understand, why are you involved in it?
