Chapter 31 Completion of the script
The day before going to Bincheng, Zhang Duo first asked Su Wengong for leave. Although Zhang Duo took the first exam of the school year in the middle of the term, Su Wengong gave him preferential treatment, but he often asked for leave recently, and Su Wengong still complained.
"What, you have to ask for leave, Zhang Duo, although you study very well, you always ask for leave like this, which will delay your studies sooner or later! Do you know?" In the office, Su Wengong said sadly.
Zhang Duo said helplessly, "Mr. Su, I also know this, but now I have to ask for leave!"
Su Wengong said angrily, "As a student, why do you have to ask for leave for so many things?"
"Teacher, in fact, I am Meng Nanxing, the author of the novel Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils and the director of the TV series of the same name that is being prepared." Zhang Duo said slowly.
"Oh, author and director, what's the matter? Let me tell you, Zhang Duo, your most important task now is to study and be admitted in the future..." Su Wengong said halfway before he realized what Zhang Duo was talking about and stammered, "You... do you think you are...?"
"The author of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils and the director of the TV series of the same name who is preparing for filming." Zhang Duo said plainly. At this time, it was evening self-study time. He was the only one in Lao Su's math group office. Zhang Duo took out the director's employment contract signed with Wanbang Film and Television Company from his pocket and put it on Lao Su's desk.
Su Wengong took the contract, looked up and down carefully three times before putting down the contract and said, "A Duo, although I have always felt that you are a promising child, I never knew that the author of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, which I have always liked to watch, is in my class."
Zhang Duo said, "Although it will be revealed sooner or later, if it can be kept secret, please ask Mr. Su to keep it confidential first!"
Su Wengong pushed the contract to Zhang Duo and said, "It's natural, but A Duo, you always ask for leave. What can you do if you miss too much homework? You study so well and are a person who is completely hopeful to get the top student in science. It's a pity to delay your homework like this!"
Zhang Duo put away the contract and said with a smile, "Mr. Su, in fact, I have been self-studying high school courses. At present, I have finished my sophomore year of high school, so even a year of delay will have no impact."
"Have you finished your self-study in the second year of high school?" Su Wengong didn't believe it.
"If the teacher doesn't believe it, you will know if you pass the exam." Zhang Duo said.
Su Wengong got up and turned over the desk next to him, found a math test paper, and said to Zhang Duo, "This is an intensive test paper for senior high school students to review in previous years, but don't worry, you can write the content of the first and second year of high school."
After sitting down, Zhang Duo took the test paper and took a pen. He just looked at the test paper roughly and waved his answer. Zhang Duo was extremely fast, and Zhang Duo answered a test paper with a full score of 150 points in only one class.
After Su Wengong took the test paper and judged it, he was shocked. Zhang Duo, a freshman in high school, took a class to answer a sophomore paper with a full score of 150, and actually got 147 points. In the recent test, the highest score in the third year of senior high school was only 148. He has been teaching for many years, and although he has seen many talented students, he is like Zhang Duo, but not one.
Zhang Duo saw his grades and said to Su Wengong with a smile, "Mr. Su, you can approve my leave!"
Su Wengong is a little interested. At such a beautiful moment, he can't carve it. How painful it is for Su Wengong, a very responsible and self-motivated teacher, to watch him go to another road. He waved his hand and said, "Approve, approve, don't worry, I'll help you say it at the school!"
Zhang Duo got up and wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, Su Wengong stood up first and walked to the door of the office with his hands behind his back. As he walked, he said, "A Duo, if a man doesn't do it, he won't do it. He must do his best. I hope you can make "Dragon Babu" into a classic. Don't pay attention to the rumors outside. Even if you don't succeed, it doesn't matter. You are still young, teacher, always support you, alas~!"
Su Wengong left the office, but left Zhang Duo alone in it. Zhang Duo clearly heard the last sigh, which made him suddenly feel very uncomfortable. Not to mention that he failed Lao Su's expectations in his previous life, he didn't expect to make Lao Su frustrated again in this life. He clenched his fist and said to himself that he must shoot Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils well and get a good result in the college entrance examination.
In fact, what Zhang Duo just said to Su Wengong is not all right. He said that he taught himself the second year of high school, but he only learned the mathematics taught by Lao Su. Zhang Duo's memory is equivalent to Zhang Wuji, who has Jiuyang magic skills. He learns everything with half the effort and is much faster than ordinary people. But he is now busy writing scripts and doesn't have much time to self-study the second year of high school, so he chose the evening self-study time to find Lao Su.
Zhang Duo wants to develop freely in high school, but Zhang Zhenxing and Lao Su can't get around. Fortunately, Zhang Zhenxing was open-minded and confidently believed that his son was a shocking genius and signed the contract. Lao Su is more difficult to do. Don't take out some means to let him see his amazing learning ability and how to let Lao Su let go.
The next day, November 26, Zhang Duo came downstairs of Wanbang Film and Television Company in Bincheng with his computer on his back. After passing the guidance of the front desk of the building, I went straight to Wanbang Film and Television Company on the 18th floor.
When he arrived at the door of the company, Jin Yutang came to greet him in person. Aduo, you came just in time. Gu Zongling and his apprentice Du Wenhui, whom we invited, also just arrived. They were drinking tea in the office and chatting together.
Zhang Duo smiled and said nothing, followed Jin Yutang into Song Siwei's office. Song Siwei's office is very spacious. Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, it is estimated that most of the scenery of Bincheng can be panoramic. After all, there were not many skyscrapers in Bincheng in 2000.
Song Siwei with golden glasses sat on the sofa, opposite an old man in his 50s and 60s and a young man in his 30s. When Song Siwei saw Zhang Duo coming, he got up and stretched out his hand with a smile and said, "Come on, Aduo, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Gu Zongling, a famous domestic director, producer and Mr. Gu is the director of Blood Clean Cold Light Sword and Wu Song. This is his apprentice, the famous director Du Wenhui.
Zhang Duo stretched out his hand to shake hands and say hello. Gu Zongling was fine and smiled. Du Wenhui had a cold face and seemed to have been owed a lot of money.
Five people sat down on the sofa. A secretary came in to deliver tea to Zhang Duo. Zhang Duo put his computer bag aside and took a sip of tea. Song Siwei asked, "Aduo, I don't know how the script is prepared?"
Zhang Duo said with a smile, "One hundred thousand words will be finished."
Du Wenhui interrupted: "100,000 words? How long will you write? If you write for ten and a half months, it will be too time-consuming. If the script doesn't come out for a day, the casting can't be carried out for a day.
Zhang Duo said confidently, "Three days is enough!" Since he discussed the film and television adaptation rights with Jin Yutang on November 1 and the idea of becoming a director, Zhang Duo has begun to adapt the script. The number of words in a TV script is usually between 12,000 and 15,000 words, and the number of words in the script of 40 episodes of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils requires more than 500,000 words. He has now written 460,000 words, and it is estimated that another 100,000 words will be finished.
Gu Zongling laughed and said, "Little baby, don't talk big. Although I have never been a screenwriter, I also know that the script is difficult to write. Do you have 100,000 words in three days? Isn't it too much?
The traditional Chinese culture in this world has been passed down from generation and has never been interrupted. The higher the cultural literacy, the older people will be, the more literary they will be. Those who are not well educated or young usually speak some vernacular. As for Zhang Duo, he talks to people and ghosts. He can speak the classical Chinese, and he can also speak the vernacular.
Zhang Duo also said with a smile, "Old man, the boy is not talented, the people of the world give him a nickname, honest and reliable, jade-faced flying dragon Xiaolang, the reputation is absolutely guaranteed."
Du Wenhui said angrily, "Do you... dare to tease us?"
Jin Yutang said quickly, "A Duo, don't mess around. Can the script really be completed within three days?"
Zhang Duo smiled and said, "No mistake!"
Song Siwei said, "It's better. It happens that the investment person in charge of Songjiang Satellite TV is not here. Today, we won't talk about the outline of the script and the outline of the episode. How about waiting for three days and getting the script before discussing it?
Gu Zongling smiled and said, "It couldn't be better. According to what Mr. Song said, in this case, I will leave first." After saying that, Du Wenhui, who was indignant, went out of the office, and naturally Song Siwei was sent to the door.
Zhang Duo also got up and said that he would go to the hotel to write a manuscript, and Jin Yutang sent him there. On the way, Jin Yutang said, "Aduo, why bother you to provoke Gu Zongling's master and apprentice!"
Zhang Duo asked, "Am I provoking them?" I'm just saying that the script can be finished in three days. One of them is questioning and the other is mocking. Why can't I make fun of them?
Du Wenhui has been the assistant director of Gu Zongling for nearly ten years, but he has never directed a film and television drama independently. You are still a high school student, but you have such an opportunity. How can he not be jealous? Moreover, Gu Zongling has never directed such a 30 million martial arts giant like Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils!" Jin Yutang said.
Zhang Duo said with a smile, "It's mediocre not to be jealous. Some people are born to look good at others. Unfortunately, my achievements are destined to far surpass that of many people, and I can't stop them from being jealous."
Zhang Duo arrived at the hotel booked by Wanbang Company, took a break, turned on the computer and began to type. When he was hungry, he asked the waiter to deliver food into the room. When he was tired, he stopped to walk around the room to see the scenery outside the window. In this way, on the third night, he finally finished the 550,000-word script.
