Chapter 674: A Big Bowl of Blood
If Manman insists on starring in the film, perhaps she can suggest to Wu Gang to delete the overly revealing scenes after the filming is started.
This not only satisfies Manman's wish to play the leading female role, but also prevents the audience from scolding her after the movie is released.
As she was thinking, Lianxin took out a stack of manuscript paper from her bag and handed it to her.
Ye Rou took it casually: "What is this?"
"It's my new book," Lianxin said admiringly. "The inspiration came from the show you and your two other classmates performed in Auditorium A."
Lianxin went to University A because she read Ye Rou’s red speech at the opening ceremony and wanted to try to see if she could meet Ye Rou by chance.
As she wandered around the campus, she noticed students rushing to the auditorium, and out of curiosity she followed them.
There was some kind of radio club competition going on, and most of the programs were poetry recitations. She had no expertise in this area, so she couldn't tell the good from the bad.
The auditorium had no doors or windows, and the huge crowd of students was crowded together, making it stuffy and hot. When Lianxin couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to leave, Ye Rou and the others came on stage.
Combining stage play and recitation, the three girls have different appearances and play characters with different experiences, but none of them escaped death.
It's like a bird that is kept in a cage, singing to the blue sky all day long, completely losing its freedom.
After watching the show, Lianxin was filled with inspiration and wrote this book after returning home.
Ye Rou listened to the whole story and quickly flipped through it.
Lian Xin was going to serialize it in the newspaper. The article was not very long and Ye Rou finished reading it quickly.
The story tells that the heroine Xiaoli is very good at studying. She originally had the opportunity to take the college entrance examination and return to school, but because her parents objected, she was forced to marry a man she didn't know. After marriage, her mother-in-law and sister-in-law quarreled, her husband was indifferent, Xiaoli had several miscarriages, and finally died of depression.
Ye Rou came here fifty years later and has read many novels with wildly imaginative plots. In her opinion, this story is nothing special.
But in this era when conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have not yet broken out, the setting of this article is already novel enough.
Moreover, Lianxin has a very good writing style. She focuses on Xiaoli and describes her mental transformation in a delicate and thorough manner.
Xiaoli's life and energy before marriage turned into her decadence and despair after marriage, which made people feel sad. After watching it, they felt like they had a breath stuck in their chest and couldn't express it, which made them very depressed.
Ye Rou closed the book, faced Lian Xin's expectant gaze, glanced at Manman, and suddenly had an idea.
She pointed at the manuscript with her fingertips and said, "The story is very exciting, but I think it lacks some explosive points."
Ye Rou forced the plot of the novel set fifty years later into Lian Xin.
Lianxin went from being dazed at first to taking out a pen and taking notes frantically, with inspiration bursting out of her mind.
"...The reason why Xiaoli couldn't go to school can be expanded. For example, you can write that she passed the exam, but her parents didn't allow her to go because of the bride price. You can also write that she tried her best to persuade her parents to let her take the exam and promised her that she would go to school if she passed, but her place was taken by someone else."
"You can add a white moonlight to your husband, meaning childhood sweetheart. He doesn't like Xiaoli, but due to pressure from his parents, he has to marry Xiaoli. After marriage, he is indifferent to Xiaoli and remains a virgin for his childhood sweetheart."
"My mother-in-law was originally kind to Lily, but when she couldn't get pregnant, she started to dislike her and thought she couldn't have a baby, so she started to mistreat Lily."
"The sister-in-law could be set up as someone who has been jealous of Lily since her school days, and is using this opportunity to follow her mother in torturing her..."
"Lily's husband is obsessed with marrying Qingmei. Not only does he not explain, he even aids her in her evil deeds. Lily has to deal with the harsh treatment from her mother-in-law while also facing Qingmei's provocations and slanders. She is exhausted both physically and mentally."
“…”
Ye Rou said she was thirsty, and stopped to meet two pairs of dark eyes.
"What's wrong with you?"
Lian Xin's face turned dark blue, and she clutched her chest: "I don't know why, but after listening to you, I feel like vomiting."
Manman's fists stiffened when she heard this: "I'm so angry."
It turns out that no matter what era, melodramatic writing is always popular.
Lian Xin resisted the urge to vomit: "If I write like this, I will definitely be the one to be scolded to death by the readers."
Manman nodded in agreement, "Just hearing it is enough to make me angry, but why do you treat Xiaoli like this?"
"People are like this. When they don't have something, they long for it. When they really have it, they don't cherish it. When they really lose it, they start to miss it." Ye Rou smiled meaningfully: "This is just the first part. There can definitely be a second part."
"At the end of the first part, it can be set up that Xiaoli wants to divorce the male protagonist and completely leave this terrible family. At this time, she encounters robbers, and she and Qingmei are kidnapped together. The kidnappers ask the male protagonist to choose between the two of them to save one, and the male protagonist chooses Qingmei..."
"After the heroine died, they were filled with remorse and began to miss her. However, the heroine changed her appearance and came back with another identity to take revenge on the hero's family."
"The first one is a bloody, sad story, and the second one is a face-slapping, satisfying story..."
The highest level of melodramatic writing – crematorium literature!
Lianxin and Manman were stunned.
After a long silence, Lian Xin suddenly lowered her voice and asked Ye Rou, "Is your husband treating you badly?"
"ah?"
"If you need help, you can tell me." Lianxin said sincerely.
"..." Ye Rou laughed, "This is a story I made up, it's not true."
She teased the melon with her fingertips, smiling: "Don't you think it sounds exciting?"
Lianxin thought for a while and nodded.
“It’s really exciting.”
"Actually, you can also write about real and fake mistresses, stand-in literature, and rebirth and face-slapping..."
A series of incomprehensible words came out of Ye Rou's mouth.
Lianxin was confused after hearing this.
Ye Rou was afraid of confusing her, so she stopped giving examples and added weight, "If you write it, I can buy the copyright of your book and adapt it into a movie, and it will be..."
She turned her gaze to Manman and asked, "How about you play the leading female role?"
Lianxin was filled with inspiration because of the knowledge Ye Rou had instilled in her.
She had a hunch that if she really wrote this book, it would definitely bring about a new wave.
"I wrote!"
Manman's emotions became intense just by listening to Ye Rou's words. She finally understood why Ye Rou said that the plot of Director Wu Gang's movie was weak. Compared with Ye Rou's story, the movies Director Wu Gang had previously planned to shoot were indeed very mediocre.
If she plays the role...
The two girls left in high spirits and agreed to visit Ye Rou again when the manuscript was finished.
Ye Rou was very satisfied with her sudden flash of inspiration.
This not only saved Manman's life and completely nipped the crisis in the bud, but it was also her first investment, so it seemed very promising.
“Quack!”
Ye Rou came back to her senses and spread out her palms to signal Gua Gua to jump up. It had been so long, and the evolution of Aotian and Fugui should be completed.
She handed the teacup to the mute woman who was waiting beside her: "Don't use the teacup that Guagua has brewed in the future."
The mute woman did not take it immediately. Ye Rou looked up at her and found that the mute woman was in a trance.
Ye Rou stared at the mute woman in surprise.
The origins of these three old women in the family remain a mystery.
The mute woman's face was ruined.
Mrs. Gao is very strong but doesn't like to see people. She just keeps working and even Ye Rou rarely sees her.
Leng Po and Song Xiaoqin knew each other. Ye Rou heard about it by chance. Her daughter seemed to have been sold, so she came out to find her daughter.
Ye Rou was thinking about what she had just said that touched the mute woman.
The mute woman suddenly moved. She knelt down in front of Ye Rou, and her usually expressionless face became extremely distorted because of pain.
She seemed to have suddenly lost her strength, her body fell down, her head hit the ground, and she cried inconsolably.
Ye Rou was stunned.
She quickly put down the melon, stood up and helped the mute woman up.
The mute woman looked as if her spine had been pulled out, and her body was so weak that she couldn't even be helped up.
Ye Rou had no choice but to squat beside her and wait for her to digest her emotions.
After a long time, the mute woman gestured to Ye Rou and said: Miss Ye Rou, when did you know what happened to me?
Ye Rou was dumbfounded.
