Chapter 424 Script
In this era, after work is over, people have few entertainment projects, except drinking and chatting, that is, listening to books.
However, the stories of storytellers are limited after all, and there are only a few over and over.
And Luo Ji himself is a daily manager, and as the supreme ruler of the civilization of the world, how can he have the spare time to help storytellers think about stories every day?
But let them think for themselves. Their brains are not flexible enough, and they lack those unrestrained thinking. Most of the stories they come up with are boring, and the guests don't buy it.
There is no other way, so I can only continue to tell the original stories.
But no matter how good a story is, after listening to it so many times in a row, it should be boring.
Therefore, in the recent period of time, within the civilization of the world, the treatment of storytellers has also declined.
Completely gone, wherever he went, it was like the treatment of stars holding the moon.
Under such circumstances, what would happen if Luo Ji launched an 'opera'?
Don't even think about it, it will definitely be an unprecedented event!
Therefore, what Luo Ji has to do now is to use the channel of opera to let the people take the initiative to understand the culture of the orcs in the process of 'entertainment', and finally change their views on the orcs and accept them.
As for what this almost historic first opera was going to be about, does it need to be said? Of course it's Beauty and the Beast!
There are both orcs and humans, isn't that just right?
The "Beauty and the Beast" story, in the original real world, is also very famous, at least in his generation.
Even Luo Ji, who doesn't like watching movies very much, has seen the animated movie "Beauty and the Beast" when he was a child, which can be called a famous IP.
In the past two years, he seemed to have made a live-action version of a big movie, and his popularity was quite high, but he didn't watch that big movie.
As for the plot of this animated film, Luo Ji actually doesn't remember very well, after all, so many years have passed.
I just vaguely remember that the plot seems to have a prince who, after being cursed, turned into an orc monster like a lion.
The heroine's father was imprisoned in the castle by the monster. In order to save her father, the heroine took a risk and used herself to exchange her father, while she stayed in the castle.
In the end, it seems that the monster changed back to a human, and then lived happily with the heroine, which is also a consistent routine in animated movies.
After racking my brains for a long time, I ended up writing something similar to an outline, with few words together.
As for the specific details and lines, Luo Ji's mind was blank. It had been too long, and he really couldn't remember these details.
And if you want to play an opera, you definitely need detailed sets and lines, otherwise, it will be a bit too empty.
"It seems that this time I have to go back to the real world."
This opera is very important to Luo Ji. Whether it can break the deadlock between the human race and the orc race is basically up to him. Therefore, he will never allow mistakes.
Thinking of this, Luo Ji simply spent a few more civilization points and chose to suspend his Myriad Realms civilization, and then decided to go offline.
Luo Ji, who had returned to the real world again, appeared directly in his room, quickly turned on his computer, and searched for the keywords 'beauty and the beast' and 'script'.
Sure enough, he found the script, and the props, characters, and lines of each scene were clearly written.
Under this premise, Luo Ji naturally started his 'endorsement career' directly.
But at the same time, he didn't forget to take a look at the movie "Beauty and the Beast" and combine the movie with the script, which would be more convenient for his memory and also make him more aware.
After watching the movie back and forth several times, and thoroughly memorizing the script, Luo Ji decided to relaunch it.
Time continued to flow, Luo Ji, who was sitting at the desk, hurriedly lost the quill in his hand, picked up the charcoal pen next to him, which was faster and more convenient for writing, and started writing all the way.
That "Beauty and the Beast" script is actually not much.
Because it is different from the movie, in the movie, a castle scene may have to be shot from several angles, and even a 360-degree high-altitude bird's-eye view to show off the castle special effects or scene special effects.
But in the script, there are basically only a few words left, that is 'scenery board - castle'.
Under this premise, what Luo Ji needed to memorize the most was the line.
It took him about ten minutes to write the script with extreme scribbles.
After checking the content quickly, after confirming that there is no error.
Luo Ji then picked up the quill pen beside him, and used the correct font, intending to write the script again.
At the same time, the content has to be changed slightly, for example, the prince who was cursed to become an orc, and finally lifted the curse and turned back into a human.
Definitely can't write like this, from the beginning to the end, it is directly set as an orc.
Otherwise, is it not a human being, to put it bluntly? According to this setting, more than half of the ideas he wanted to convey through this opera were suddenly lost.
As for the scribbled handwriting, he was worried that after a long time, he would forget the content, which is why he wrote it so scribbly.
And now this one in correct handwriting is going to be taken to a printing house and asked to print it.
Since it is an opera, why does this script need a dozen or twenty copies?
The interviews before that will require more estimates.
After all, in this era, there is no opera singer, you can't ask them to come up and start the performance directly with the script.
The script must be distributed first, so that they can follow the script and practice more in advance.
After finishing writing, Luo Ji quickly called the director of the printing factory over, and then ordered, "This entire content, please print thirty copies for me first..."
After speaking, Luo Ji, who seemed to have thought of something, hurriedly stretched out his hand again, "By the way, there is also this one, the one marked 'Act 1', this one will be printed for me in 5,000 copies. "
Those five thousand copies were apparently for interviews and publicity.
The script content of the interview does not need to be much, basically only need to send out the plot of the first act.
If the entire book is sent out, once it is spread, the entire civilization of the world will know it.
The opera was spoiled before it even started, and when it officially started, the effect would be a level or two worse.
But even so, Luo Ji doesn't think he can fully reproduce the show "Beauty and the Beast".
Because the conditions of his era are too limited, let's take music as an example, a lot of back music must be impossible to come up with, and some simple sound effects, he can make a person knock on it twice.
But it doesn't matter. People in this era have never been exposed to opera before.
This is like someone who has never seen a movie, is it necessary to show them a Hollywood blockbuster as soon as they come up? There's absolutely no need for that.
