Chapter 15 Try Again
Script 2: "The Strange Bar"
Plot overview: Day and night seem to be separated by two completely different worlds.
In Los Angeles, the Thanksgiving Day atmosphere is overflowing over the entire city.
Even the chaotic neighborhoods in Compton seemed to be infected with such a hint of joy.
However, it is not only ordinary humans who are affected by the festival.
At night, a noisy and brightly lit bar suddenly appeared at the entrance of an unknown street in Compton, and the burning bone signs were vivid.
Several drunken men and women found out about the bar and entered...
...
"It's finally done."
Compared with the "Cycle" created in a hurry before.
Zhao Yuan obviously spent more time on creating this new script.
After compiling all the detailed introductions to the bar in the script into the system, Zhao Yuan let out a long sigh and rubbed his faintly sour forehead.
I looked up and confirmed the script in the system panel again and again, and after that there was no omission.
Decisively pressed the [Generate] button under [Script Evolution].
"Ding! Please invest in accordance with..."
With the previous experience in "Cycle", when I saw the prompts popping up on the broken panel of the system, there was no difference on Zhao Yuan's face.
Instead, I had already expected to put up my prepared [material] and invest it.
[Material 1]: Wine glass - 1000 [Plot value] (recorded in the house)
[Material 2]: Red Suit - 100 [Plot Value] (Finished in thrift stores)
[Material 3]: Leftover Fried Chicken Bones - 50 [Plot Value] (Last Dinner)
[Material 4]: Abandoned dolls (multiple) - 150 [Plot value] (Leave by the former tenant)
If we say that the "Cycle" created by Zhao Yuan was a one-act drama with a simple overall structure.
Then, the new script "The Strange Bar" that is about to evolve this time is a complete group scene. Although every character involved in the play is not necessarily eye-catching, it is crucial to the composition of the entire script. With the increase in material, the [plot value] required by the script also increases a lot.
【Plot Value】: 1620
"I hope this time the [Plot Value] gains can be worthy of the expenses."
His eyes were taken back from the top of the data panel [Plot Value], and Zhao Yuan now understood the director's feelings.
There is only so much budget cost to be used, and the entire film must be filmed as perfect as possible within a limited cost. No wonder so many directors are asking for help because of financial problems.
I don’t know when I can completely ignore the evolutionary scripts [Plot Value].
The heart is filled with beautiful expectations.
However, Zhao Yuan knew very well that such expectations could never be realized.
After all, even in Hollywood, even a big director like James Cameron is still trapped in financial difficulties.
Although, from a certain perspective, this great director is indeed gifted in spending money.
When filming "Titanic", the continuous budget was added almost forcing Fox to go bankrupt.
Shake your head and restrain your thoughts in your heart.
Zhao Yuan put his attention back on the [Script Evolution] of the system in front of him.
"You also need to choose an evolutionary location!"
"Choose the evolutionary location—Compton Street Alley!"
"Ding! The evolution location is confirmed. The total number of 1,500 points of [Plot Value] is required to be invested in the evolution of the script, whether to evolve!"
He completed a series of operations step by step towards the system, and looked at the last inquiry on the data panel, Zhao Yuan decisively confirmed.
【Evolution begins】
At this point, the last 120 points left on the system panel is used to replace the backup [Plot Value].
Zhao Yuan has invested all the [plot value] obtained from the previous scripts "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and "Cycle" into the evolution of the new script.
...
Under the invisible fluctuations of power.
In the Compton neighborhood, in an unknown alley, a brightly lit bar suddenly appeared there, and noisy noise came from the bar.
A burning bone hangs on the neon sign at the door of the bar.
A pungent burning smell came from the air.
On the street, several drunken men and women appeared there staggeringly.
“…Fu** you, Ian, don’t think I don’t know what you are thinking!”
Walking on the road in high heels, he was about to fall but not fall. A blond woman with heavy makeup shook the man's arm with one hand and shouted and cursed.
"You're drunk, Cassie..."
Faced with the blonde woman's accusation, Ian, who was also full of intoxication, opened her drunken eyes and replied with a silly smile.
"I'm not drunk, don't think you'll deceive me with this kind of quibbling. I know you've always wanted to join me, Ian..."
Her whole face was so drunk that she was red, but the blonde Cassie still said stubbornly.
"I think you're confused, Cassie, haha."
"That's right, otherwise how could he say such drunken words? I've forgotten that Ian is GAY. He likes men like you. How could he go to you? It's almost the same for you to be attacked by Bert."
"That's right, hahahaha."
"Hey, why did you get me involved? I'm not GAY."
Hearing the nonsense of the blonde Cassie, everyone burst into laughter and said with a loud laugh.
"You're so disgusting, Kassie."
And as another party involved in the entire incident, Ian.
But he looked disgusted and acted disgusted at Cassie.
There is no doubt that Ian's reaction made the men and women around him laugh a little louder.
Several drunken drunks were drunk and drunk, playing drunkenly in the uninhabited neighborhood of Compton.
Such an unscrupulous approach is obviously to show off his identity as a fat sheep to be slaughtered at Compton.
Under normal circumstances.
They will most likely encounter the enthusiastic "holiday" of those guys who are hiding in Compton. Whether it is Cassie who likes men or Ian who likes men, they will wake up from a garbage dump pennilessly and in a disheveled manner the next morning.
If you have a little less luck, you may not even have the chance to see the sun the next day.
However, strangely.
In the past, the group of guys who wandered around the Compton neighborhood like wild dogs, wandering around, working diligently to "subsidize" their household income, and could not drive them away.
Tonight, it was unexpectedly quiet.
It seemed as if they had been homeless in the past, they all found their homes all at once.
And just at the end of this strangely quiet neighborhood.
Under the reflection of the old street lights, a tall figure who was two meters tall, dragged his long shadow and walked stiffly towards Kassi and the others.
Chapter completed!
