Chapter 13 (1/2)
Adapting the Script
On the set, Lu Zhen was discussing the script with the director.
Sun Xiao waved at Lu Zhen when she looked up.
“What’s wrong?” Lu Zhen walked to Xiaoxiao’s side and asked.
“Sister Zhenzhen, Sister Li called me and said that Wu Yu and Lu Rou went to the hotel to apologize to you. Sister Zhenzhen, you’re too smart. You asked the driver to turn around halfway and come to the set. Otherwise, there would have been trouble today.”
Because Lu Zhen had fallen into the water and fainted this time, Sister Li also came to Hengshui Town. Apart from taking care of Lu Zhen, she also had to see the other actors from the company filming in Hengshui Town.
Today, Lu Zhen had specifically greeted Sister Li, hoping that she could help her pay attention to Wu Yu’s movements in the hotel.
Lu Zhen chuckled. She could guess what Wu Yu and her daughter wanted to do.
“What did Sister Li say?”
“Sister Li wants you to film in peace. She will deal with Wu Yu.”
“Yes, Xiaoxiao, help me keep an eye on the development on the Internet. I feel uneasy.”
“Okay, Sister Zhenzhen.”
After explaining the matter, Lu Zhen returned to the director’s side.
“I’ve thought about the changes you just mentioned. According to what you mentioned, the first part of the plot also needs to be changed.”
“Brother Li, I’m just making a suggestion. If you feel that it’s not suitable, pretend I didn’t say anything.”
Lu Zhen smiled at the director. The two of them had a good relationship. She had acted in two television dramas with Director Li before and they had a good working relationship.
“Alright, I’ll discuss it with the screenwriter before telling you.”
“Okay.”
Actually, the suggestion she gave Director Li was something she had seen in the comments after the television drama aired in her previous life. Due to the character setting, it was understandable for the fans to complain. Although the female lead wasn’t good at scheming, she was still a female general who had led troops to war. In the early stages, the male lead had always saved the female lead, so the audience felt bored and it affected the viewership ratings.
Moreover, Lu Zhen had another special reason for mentioning this scene, which Lu Rou had appeared in.
‘Lu Zhen’s historical drama mainly revolved around imperial court schemes and political struggles. The first time the male and female leads met was the emperor’s birthday banquet, right after the female lead returned to the capital.
Five years ago, the female protagonist’s father died on the battlefield as a general guarding the border. At that time, because the emperor valued literature over martial arts, he had no generals to use. The female protagonist had no choice but to lead the troops to resist the enemy in the nick of time.
