Chapter 9: Three-Act Structure(2/2)

The most obvious thing is the hairline that has been pushed to the middle.

"Pu Jie, do you know why I left you alone?"

Oh! Look at this terrible line,

From primary school teachers to university teachers, not a word has changed!

"Uh... I'm not sure, Teacher Wang."

Wang Xiang took out a stack of A4 paper and threw it in Pu Jie's hand.

"Look, look at the good article you wrote. It's 300,000 words, but it's just plain language and vulgar language. Is this how the teacher taught you to write novels?"

"Be popular, don't be vulgar, don't be sensational."

"You are still young and can create better works. Don't give up on yourself and destroy your future."

Pu Jie took it in his hand and saw that it was the first 10 chapters of "The Son-in-law of the Urban Dragon King".

There are various revision opinions written by Wang Xiang in red pen.

A densely packed area,

The number of words revised is no more than the main text.

"Teacher Wang, this..."

Wang Xiang said angrily: "If you hadn't been a bit as diligent as I was back then, and you wrote this kind of article and handed in your homework, I would have transferred you to another department directly."

"Here, take a look at these first ten chapters. Tell me, where is the classic three-act structure of script creation?"

"Uh... Others provoke, the protagonist slaps in the face, and the villain regrets. Is this considered a three-act style..."

Pu Jie looked at the instructor's face and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"Is this the new three-act sequence you summarized? On average, you write a three-act sequence in 2 chapters? Should I praise you?"

Pu Jie said modestly: "That's not necessary."

"Are you still humble? Come here and learn the real three-act structure from me."

"The first act: reveal the background, clarify the protagonist, foreshadow the conflict, and provide suspense; the second act: the conflict occurs, encounter failure, and clarify the goal; the third act: reveal the foreshadowing, resolve the conflict, and sublimate the theme. This is the orthodox three

Act! Look again, what did you write? A running account!"

Pu Jie tried to put his own story into it,

"Teacher Wang, look, actually... I also have a complete three-act style!"

"The first act: reveals the background: a wealthy family. Defines the protagonist: the son-in-law. Foreshadows the conflict: discovering that the wife is cheating. Provides suspense: Will the mother-in-law discipline the wife?"

"Act 2: Conflict occurs: the protagonist is bullied by his wife's family. He suffers a failure: the mother-in-law and his wife conspire to cuckold him. The goal is clear: this family doesn't want to be treated as such!"

"The third act: Revealing the foreshadowing: Why does a tough guy like the protagonist want to be the son-in-law? Conflict resolution: The Dragon King arrives, how bold is the Lin family, how dare they humiliate the Dragon King? Sublimated theme: The Dragon King has a crooked mouth."

Instructor Wang Xiang was stunned.

After thinking for a moment,

I actually found that what Pu Jie said made some sense!

Small but complete.

The scene fell into silence for a while...

After a while,

Wang Xiang said angrily: "You kid has a lot of lies, but I can tell you responsibly, based on my 30 years of screenwriting experience, it is impossible for anyone to buy the adaptation rights for a novel like yours."

"And as far as I know, your grades in Qidian are also very poor. This proves that most book friends in Qidian don't buy it. Go back and take a good look at the changes I proposed for you. If you overhaul the article according to this idea, your grades should be able to

"improvement point"

"But...don't even think about adapting it into a film and television work."

Pu Jie took a look at the dense revision comments made by the instructor and was a little moved.

If they don't really care about you, who would be willing to criticize you so seriously?

"Okay instructor, I will take a good look at it"

Look again, it is impossible to change.

The director sentenced him to death for adaptation, blocking a possible path for success.

Proving that his strategy of showing off this time was completely effective!

The system has been completely manipulated by him.

Just wait and count the money.

The instructor took a few steps, then stepped back and said angrily:

"Are you a poisonous kid? You don't care about so many people scolding you. Why are you deleting my comments and banning me?"

Pu Jie instantly remembered the reader named "Daxiang" who had posted two positive reviews in a row...

"Ah this! Teacher Wang, do you also want to read Qidian?"

"Hmph~ Enable high-level VIP, what do you think!"

The instructor and the female assistant walked away proudly.
Chapter completed!
