Chapter 117 Revising the Script
Throughout the weekend, Lu Li and Jiang Lianxue assembled a total of five two of them worked very efficiently together, but they didn't have much time to polish the model in detail. They were finished after just sticking stickers on it.
The new week begins, and it will be a very busy week.
Currently, Lu Li and Yaoyao are the only two people in the drama club who have not joined the rehearsal and are instead focusing on writing the script.
This time, Lu Li was the main writer and Yaoyao was responsible for assisting.
Lu Li was the first person in three years to take over Yaoyao's pen within just two months of joining the company.
As soon as get out of class was over on Monday, Lu Li rushed to the activity room of the drama club. Yaoyao, who was a junior and didn't have many classes, was already sitting in front of the computer. She looked at Lu Li with a painful expression, "You're finally here."
"What happened? Did you go too far in your training?"
"It's even more painful than that." Yaoyao stretched out her hands and grabbed her hair hard, "I'm stuck!"
Lu Li raised his eyebrows when he heard this. He was very familiar with this terrifying existence.
He walked behind Yaoyao and looked at the script in the computer. "Where is it stuck?"
"In this scene, the two of them are alone together, a man and a woman in the same room. What else can they do if they don't talk about love?"
Yaoyao felt that the only things in her mind were love affairs. Just as President Lan said, her whole state was not right.
She urgently needed help from others to pull herself out of this state, so she asked Lu Li for his thoughts, hoping to find some other ideas.
Lu Li blinked, "A man and a woman alone in a room, if they don't talk about love, they can watch a cat do a backflip!"
"???"
Yaoyao's mouth twitched, she slapped the table and stood up, "Come on! I'll go out for a walk to find some ideas, and I'll be back soon."
Then, she turned her head and looked at Li Tao, who was sitting not far away and reciting his lines with a sad face, "Li Tao, let's go for a walk!"
"Coming!"
Li Tao immediately smiled, jumped up, followed happily, took Yaoyao's hand and walked out of the activity room together.
Everyone in the drama club who was memorizing their lines looked up and stared at the two people's backs as they walked out of the activity room. As soon as they walked out of the room, they swarmed to the window.
Lu Li, who was sitting behind the computer and reading the script, looked at them curiously, "Are you guys eating melons at a high intensity?"
Xu Xingchen turned his head and said, "You don't know, this is the sixth time they have gone downstairs for a walk today."
"what?"
Lu Li was stunned for a moment. He thought that Sister Yaoyao came downstairs to look for inspiration because she was stuck in a writer's block.
I didn't expect that this was planned for a long time. They just waited for me to arrive and then started with zero frames.
Given this situation, it would be strange if the script wasn’t filled with love between men and women!
Sun Zhipeng, who was standing by the window, suddenly spoke up, "They're out! They're out! Come on, it's open, this time they'll take a few steps and start kissing!"
"I bet five steps!"
"Ten steps!"
……
Everyone began to shout out their guesses, but before they could decide on a result, Sun Zhipeng's voice rang out again.
"Okay, it's over. We've already started kissing."
Everyone: "???"
Wow, there are other experts?
After staring for a few seconds, everyone dispersed with a smile and continued to do their own things.
It seems nice to just relax like this every once in a while.
Lu Li concentrated on the script. He had actually come up with an idea by the weekend. If he wanted the story to be more than just about love, it was simple. He just needed to add some villains.
Add some conflict, add some knives, damn, I accidentally added too much!
It was already dark. Yaoyao and Lan Yuting stood behind Lu Li with their arms folded, looking at the script that Lu Li had revised on the computer with serious expressions.
“Why is it that the overall plot hasn’t changed, but it feels more painful to read?”
"Because of the characterization, Lu Li gave more details to several supporting characters who were supposed to die. Although there weren't many dialogues and actions, it felt like they were brought back to life."
Yaoyao was dumbfounded, she always believed that a character was brought to life by the actor, but after reading the lines written by Lu Li, she realized that a good screenwriter could also give a character a soul.
She felt that her thoughts suddenly became clear, and she had to admit that talent was something she had to admire.
Lu Li asked uncertainly, "Is this okay? Doesn't it feel a bit tragic?"
"But it's impressive, isn't it?"
Lan Yuting knew clearly that tragedy was far easier to remember than comedy, and people mentioned the four great tragedies far more often than the four great comedies.
She believed that this script should satisfy Party A.
This was actually the first time that Lu Li tried this kind of tragedy. He still preferred to write articles that made people feel happy.
Life already has enough suffering, so why bother experiencing sadness through literary works?
Even though he doesn't like it, it doesn't mean he's not good at it.
Since President Lan said it was okay, Lu Li didn't say anything more. He started revising the script at noon and ended up revising it until six in the evening.
The last time Lu Li experienced this state of total dedication was during the holiday after the college entrance examination.
At that time, he stayed at home day and night, immersed in the novels he wrote every day.
After entering university, things became busier and he no longer had the vigor and vitality he once had.
Lan Yuting smiled and looked at Lu Li, "Thank you for your hard work today. The script was completed earlier than I expected, and this time we have more time for rehearsal without realizing it."
It was obvious that the club president was very satisfied with being able to bring a talented player like Lu Li into the club.
Since Lu Li joined Zhilan, not only has work efficiency improved, but even the members have begun to break the curse of being single.
The entire community is quietly changing and thriving.
Lu Li smiled and said, "Then I'll leave first. Xiaoxue should be off work by now. I'll wait for her at the school gate."
After secretly showing off their love, Lu Li said goodbye to everyone in the drama club with a smile.
Because we live in the school dormitory, we have to line up for a while.
Acting together is a very happy thing for Zhilan people. It is like a script-killing drama, and there is a pleasure in acting.
Walking in the campus as the weather was getting colder, Lu Li couldn't help but shrink his neck.
The autumn wind is blowing, time is passing quickly, and in a blink of an eye, almost half of the first semester of college has passed.
In two months, it will be winter vacation, and I don’t know where Jiang Lianxue will go to spend the winter vacation.
Given her personality, she probably doesn't want to be separated from me for even a moment.
When he thought of this, Jiang Lianxue's smiling face appeared in Lu Li's mind, and he didn't seem to want to separate at all.
The two of them can plan their travel plans in advance and go out and have fun during the holidays.
While thinking about future arrangements, Lu Li quickened his pace.
Soon, he saw the familiar figure outside the north gate of the school, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.
