Chapter 23 Rewrite The Script
Chapter 23 Rewrite The Script
"Ahem." Hearing the scriptwriter's words, Director Quentin choked on his tea.
The scriptwriter chuckled, "As Director Quentin just said, we should not be narrow minded. The
situation is different now. We should think out of the box."
"What do you mean?"
"Although the leading antagonist of my script is Mr. Black and he is a man, We can also change it to a
female role. No one says that a woman can't be an antagonist. Look, so many leaders in the world are
women now, and women are also very powerful. " The scriptwriter explained.
"So the setting is going to be changed?"
The scriptwriter didn't answer the producer's question. She turned to Director Quentin and said,
"Director, I have had a lot of inspirations after seeing Muriel's performance. Can you give me one more
day? I'll write the outline of the script and send it to you in one day! "
"Are you going to make some big changes? No, we can't. the crew can't wait for so many days. " The
producer strongly opposed, "It's better to let Muriel play the role of Mr. Black directly, so that time won't
be so short."
Director Quentin shook his head and explained, "Although Muriel is a newcomer, her acting was
professional. Almost all the scenes have been done in one shot, and only a few emotional scenes have
to be shot two or three times, but on the whole, the progress is not slow, but faster."
"But we are also short of money. We will give you a day to write the outline. Once the outline is
changed, you have to change the script, right? You can't finish the script in one day, can you? As long
as I give you a few days, the progress of the shooting will be delayed. The actors have their own
schedules. Are you sure that the schedules of Lindy and Crystal can match us? Do you know how
much I will spend on this project? "
The producer grumbled without gasping, and everyone's heart sank.
The scriptwriter lowered her head, wiped her tears and sobbed, "I just want to write a play that I'm
satisfied with. I don't want to be so perfunctory."
"Don't cry. It's not perfunctory. Your script is still the same as before. It's just that Muriel plays the role of
Mr. Black."
The scriptwriter shook her head and said, "It's different. In the play, Mr. Black is more than forty years
old, and Ms. Leopard is in her early twenties. Her age and makeup are not fit that role."
"In that case, we'd better find another suitable actor to play Mr. Black."
Everyone thought that they had reached an agreement, but they didn't expect that they would soon
returned to where they had been. They had contemplated hard just now, but they couldn't think of a
suitable person.
At this time, Director Quentin's phone rang. He didn't want to answer it, but it was from the agency. He
made a gesture to stop the meeting and walked out of the meeting room to answer the phone.
In the meeting room, everyone was irritably browsing micro-blogs. The scriptwriter took a look at the
producer, bit her lower lip, and began to write on the notebook, unwilling to give up. The plots in her
mind were like a steady stream of water, constantly emerging.
After a while, Director Quentin pushed the door open and said excitedly, "That's great! We are saved!"
"What's wrong?" Everyone craned their necks and asked curiously.
"The XR Group has acquired the Times Culture before. Their first investment to the entertainment circle
has been contributed to Storm!"
"What? XR Group invested in Storm? " The producer asked excitedly.
"Yes! My agent called me just now. " Director Quentin looked at the producer and said, "Now with XR Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
Group's investment, it doesn't matter if we delay for a few days. I think Muriel is a good actress. I also
trust our scriptwriter very much. I'm looking forward to her new script. Let's wait and see, okay? "
The producer didn't immediately answer Director Quentin's question. He asked curiously, "How much
does XR Group invest?"
"I heard from my assistant that XR Group is very optimistic about our Storm. They are willing to offer
this number." Director Quentin made a gesture.
The producer asked uncertainly, "Ten million?"
Director Quentin shook his head. The producer asked in surprise, "Really? Only one million? It will only
last for two or three days. It won't cover all the extra expenses due to the rewriting of script."
Director Quentin laughed and shook his head. The producer looked at him in a daze and stammered,
"One, one hundred million?"
"One hundred million? So generous? " The deputy director looked at Director Quentin excitedly.
The producer was so excited that his eyes turned red. "Are you kidding? A hundred million? This is a
police movie, not a science fiction movie! Are you sure you didn't hear it wrong? "
"XR Group is willing to offer one hundred million. They will send someone to discuss the details
tomorrow. Anyway, one hundred million won't run away." Director Quentin's hanging heart was finally
relieved. He looked at the producer and said, "Can you agree with Miss Zhu to change the script this
time?"
Then everyone turned to look at the scriptwriter, only to see her completely immersed in writing on the
notebook.
Seeing that the scriptwriter was very devoted, the producer nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay,
I'm looking forward to the new script."
On that day, the Storm officially issued a statement and said that it decided to remove Culbert Yang
from the cast. However, another TV series that Culbert was still shooting claimed that it wouldn't
change the actor. The two officials had two different attitudes, which immediately caused a hot
discussion among the netizens.
Many marketing bloggers posted on micro-blog, "After Culbert's accident, everyone hit him when he
was down. Only the crew of this play said that they could wait for Culbert. It's really a loyal thing. We
must watch this play!"
"Something happened to Culbert, so the shooting of this play has been suspended. It can be said that
Culbert is actually a very good actor, but he is sentenced to six months for prostitution. I hope the crew
can hold on. "
"In this play, the role played by Culbert is called"Wang Shun ". He fell in love with Hu Min played by
Rose at the first sight, so the two of them performed a desperate love. They had gone through too
many setbacks, and finally had a happy ending."
"I recommend everyone to pay attention to this play, because the crew of this play is loyal, and the
actors are relatively famous. Moreover, I think Culbert and Rose Qin have made an unprecedented
breakthrough in this play, which must be a good play to look forward to! Don't miss it. "
These bloggers seemed to have made an agreement. They forwarded that the Storm crew were
inhuman. Many netizens thought that they were right, so they ran to the Storm official account to add
cursing comments.
"They are hypocrites!"
"How could you change the actor at such a critical moment? The Storm crew are so disgusting. He has
been miserable enough, but you still add salt to the wounds."
"This crew is really LOW! When Culbert was best actor, they eagerly invited him there. Now that others
are in trouble, why don't you help them? "
