After sleepless nights and forgetting to eat and sleep, the script that originally only had an outline was finally tempered by Qiao Shuran into a complete finished product, which he named "The Swamp".

The inspiration for the formation of "The Swamp" comes from Qiao Shuran's many years of experience. At that time, he was a college student. During the summer vacation, he went to a backward mountainous area as a volunteer teacher and witnessed the poor and difficult life of the people there.

He once taught a child who had no father. He heard from the child's mother that the child's father died of illness. Because he was poor and had no money to see a doctor, he died of illness.

I am sick but have no money to get medical treatment, I want to live but I can't.

When Qiao Shuran heard this story, he felt a little sad, but he didn't cry.Then one day, he was sitting quietly by the field ridge outside the elementary school, and when he saw the child playing with other friends, he suddenly cried.

He had seen the photo of the child's father, and the child smiling carefreely under the blue sky was really like his father.

What is he crying for?He didn't know, but he just wanted to cry.

It may be because he suddenly realized that there are many tragedies in the world, and that all living beings are suffering.In the face of these tragedies, people are just a drop in the ocean and have no power to parry.

It may also be because he has seen from others that many people's lives are like a quagmire. For them, disease is a quagmire, and poverty is also a quagmire.Once you step into it, you can no longer pull it out. You can only sink deeper and deeper slowly, and die of suffocation.

Because I feel something, I have something to say.Qiao Shuran followed the outline and created the story of "The Mire".

The protagonist of the story is a man named Li Shangfu, one of thousands of ordinary migrant workers. He has a virtuous and considerate wife and a lively and lovely daughter. Although his life is not rich, he is also happy.

Suddenly one day, it was a sunny day, the man was told that he was terminally ill, and he knew he had no money for treatment.The script tells what happened in the six months after he learned that he was terminally ill.

Just a small script condenses all kinds of life: the sacrifice and struggle of the people at the bottom, the joys and sorrows of relatives and friends.The lines are full of concern for human nature and compassion for the weak. Qiao Shuran's creations touch on issues that attract attention in society.

In fact, Ning Han is right, Qiao Shuran is very suitable for writing some in-depth works.

During this period of time, Ning Han gave full play to the qualities necessary for a high-quality boyfriend, serving all kinds of delicacies in turn, serving Qiao Shuran so much that he could even use his fingers to type on the keyboard.

He cheered and encouraged Qiao Shuran on the phone and on WeChat every day, and would exchange ideas with him. He also introduced many film screenwriters he knew in the industry to Qiao Shuran to provide some professional advice.

Qiao Shuran, on the other hand, has always remained mysterious, covering her baby with a veil of mystery.

Perhaps it was Ning Han's wholehearted encouragement that gave him some encouragement; or maybe it was a little expectation of his own ability that gave him some inexplicable persistence and stubbornness.Qiao Shuran hoped that when her script was unveiled, it would be a blockbuster.

His boyfriend deserves all the praise in the world, so he shouldn't be far behind, right?Ning Han is his pride, so he should work hard to be Ning Han's pride, right?

Ning Han cried when he read this script for the first time.

On the day when Qiao Shuran submitted the script to be examined by the examiner Ning, he was still sitting in his small house, on the blue Doraemon carpet.

Qiao Shuran solemnly handed over the child she had nursed for so long into Ning Han's hands.

The talented actor Ning Han cooperated with his actor boyfriend very well, sat upright on the sofa, solemnly accepted the script as if unveiling a new real estate project, and opened the first page to congratulate.

The minute hand on the wall clock circled around in a daze, and the hour hand moved forward slowly...

A big man who was nearly thirty years old and about 1.8 meters tall was crying in Qiao Shuran's arms, crumbling.

"I said this little brother..." Qiao Shuran's heart trembled, and while handing a tissue to the man in his arms, he gently patted him on the back: "Don't you just read a script? How did you get into it? Don't cry Don't cry."

Ning Han cried silently, and just held back, tears kept falling, the script in his hand was tightly clenched, and he refused to let go no matter what.

After Ning Han cried continuously for half an hour, Qiao Shuran said weakly: "Brother, you have to accompany me to the supermarket to buy toilet paper later, you used up all the paper towels in my house."

Ning Han: "Can you get me a towel? I feel like I haven't finished crying yet."

Qiao Shuran: "..." Seeing that he is crying so full of energy, why can't he keep singing that tune?

After Ning Han cried unceasingly for an hour, Qiao Shuran handed him a glass of water distressedly, "Boyfriend, drink some water to rehydrate, I'm afraid you will become dehydrated from crying."

Ning Han: "I'm not thirsty, I want to concentrate on crying..."

Qiao Shuran: "..." It seems that this is an arduous marathon.

After Ning Han cried non-stop for two hours, Qiao Shuran asked unrequitedly, "Baby, are you done crying? Are you not tired? If you are not tired, I will be tired..."

Ning Han: "Oh, then I'll try to collect as much as possible."

Qiao Shuran: "..." My boy ticket might be made of water, why didn't I know he could cry so much before?You can consider going to Africa to fight drought.

In this way, Ning Han spent a full hour reading the script, crying while watching.After reading it, the aftertaste was still there, and then I continued to cry for two hours, crying until my eyes were red, like a sad little rabbit paper.

Qiao Shuran thought he was going to tear down the Dragon King Temple.

Is this script so easy to cry?Although he himself was crying while writing in the later stage of writing, crying so much that he needed to use ice cubes to reduce the swelling of his eyes.

Finally, under Qiao Shuran's comfort, Ning Han's two waterfalls of tears successfully stopped the valve. He finished the script, looked at the word "swamp" on the cover, and said in a hoarse voice, "That's it."

Because the first time I read "The Mire", it was amazing, and Ning Han fell in love with it at first sight, and immediately decided to use this script for the next filming.

That kind of silence reveals his inability to resist life and destiny, the feeling of being so disturbed after seeing an illness, no matter how he reads it, he can't put it down, and the desire to perform in his body is ready to go.

At the same time, he also has some thoughts on the casting of the male second role in the script.

The second male lead is named Zhang Jianjun, who is the male protagonist's coworker and good brother. After learning that the male protagonist is sick, he also tried his best to help him. Although he is not rich, he still helps the male protagonist's family.

It's a nice guy.

Ning Han took the script and discussed with Qiao Shuran, "I have someone to choose for the role of Zhang Jianjun, and I think it's quite suitable."

"Who?"

"Zheng Zhi."

Qiao Shuran was very surprised, "Zheng Zhi? Isn't he a professional villain?"

In my impression, Zheng Zhi is a national villain. Since his debut, he has never played a positive role, so that when people think of him, they will think of how bad his roles are. For this reason, his acting skills are often ignored.

"That's the fixed impression that the audience has of him," Ning shouted. "I played opposite him when I was filming "Dragon Warriors", and I found that his performance is very dynamic, and he can handle many different roles. I have been acting for many years and have enough experience, so I think I can give it a try.”

Qiao Shuran still felt a little unreliable, "But didn't you say that the audience already had a fixed impression of him, wouldn't it be risky to let him play a good old man?"

"It's because everyone's views are too fixed, so we can't judge an actor from the surface in the same way. In fact, if we pay attention, we will find that Zheng Zhi is a very malleable actor. Everyone's understanding of him is too superficial. , but your script is very deep, and it is quite suitable for him."

Qiao Shuran rested his cheeks, thinking it made sense, after all, he believed that Ning Han, as a professional actor, saw another actor's eyes.

Ning Han walked around behind Qiao Shuran, and graciously squeezed Qiao Shuran's shoulders and back, still maintaining his own opinion, "Besides, I worked with him quite well before. I just don't know if he would like to play such a role, after all, I can't pay him too much now."

"Okay, you can ask the person first if he is willing, if not, then let Brother Tao do it, his perfect tongue will definitely convince people."

"Well, I'll call and ask later."

Qiao Shuran bumped Ning Han's shoulder with his own again, recommending himself as a good wife, "If it doesn't work, let me do it, I didn't say it, I'm very eloquent, and I was born to be a pyramid scheme... No, it's the negotiator's job." Guess, Master Qiao will go out and promise to take care of it for you!"

Ning Han couldn't help laughing until his shoulders shook, and he rubbed Qiao Shuran's head like a cat, "Don't worry, Brother Zheng is very talkative, so you don't need to do it yourself."

With a trace of apprehension and uncertainty, Ning Han dialed Zheng Zhi's phone number.

Qiao Shuran lay on the side of the table, dangling her calves, staring at his boyfriend sitting across the table.Look at his respectful and obedient manner on the phone, he is really cute and painful.

The chandelier above the head emits a faint warm light, sprinkled on Qiao Shuran's slender and fine eyelashes, like a layer of fine glitter, which is charming.The man was still smiling, very cutely.

If it wasn't for the fact that the call had already been dialed, Ning Han really wanted to stand up, step over the table, and kiss him deeply.

The phone rang four times, and the other party finally answered. Zheng Zhi's familiar voice came over, "Hello? Ning Han? Brother?"

"Hey, Brother Zheng," Ning Han greeted a little jerky, "Busy?"

After all, Ning Han and Zheng Zhi haven't been in touch for more than half a year since "Qianlong Wushuang" was finished, and now they have a phone call for no reason, and they still feel a little nervous.

Zheng Zhi was very hearty, "I'm not busy, I'm in the car. What's the matter? Do you need me?"

"That's right, I'm preparing for a movie recently, and I want to invite you to play a role," Ning Han asked cautiously, "See if you're willing, and if you're willing, I'll ask my assistant to send you the script later. "

"Your own movie?"

"I initiated it, but I must invite some people, the director and other actors." Ning Han suddenly lost his confidence, and even lowered his voice a little. It’s not a traditional commercial film, and the main source of investment is myself, so—”

The observer, Qiao Shuran, looked at Ning Han with eyes full of pity: This poor child, who falters so euphemistically, doesn't he mean to be poor?

If only I were a wealthy businessman, I would give my family Han'er a lifetime support, and he can spend as much money as he wants.

It's a pity that I am a poor man.

The honest boy Ning Han felt that he couldn't fool people casually, so he gritted his teeth and told the truth: "So I can't pay you more, or even a little less, maybe it's better for you to act in a few episodes of TV series .”

After hearing what Ning Han said, Zheng Zhi didn't refuse directly, but asked, "Modern in ancient clothes?"

"Modern. Male second. The male lead's friend." Ning Han replied.

"Did he die in the end?"

"Not dead. The hero is dead."

"It's amazing, there are such negative energy movies now?" Zheng Zhi sincerely exclaimed, "So in the end, the villain won? The male lead got the dog instead?"

"It's not a villain." Ning Han was stunned before he realized, "Brother Zheng, the role I asked you to play is not a villain, but a good person."

The other end of the phone was silent for a long time, and there was no sound. Ning Han put the phone away a little bit, looked at the screen, and made sure that he was still on the phone. Then he said "Hello?" a few times, "Brother Zheng?"

After a while, a voice came from the other party, "Just tell me when to join the group."

Ning Han was stunned, his heart was suddenly moved, and he was a little speechless: "Brother Zheng..."

"The pay is whatever you want, as long as you mean it, or just treat yourself to a meal, isn't it OK?"

"Don't...you, you can't," Ning Han was so moved that he honestly said, "Brother Zheng, you made me not even know what to say..."

"If you don't know what to say, don't say it," Zheng Zhi said with a smile, "Don't give me such nasty words, I won't listen."

Ning Han was touched, "I, I really don't know how to thank you..."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Zheng Zhi also lost his mind, "Actually, I know it well. You know that the audience's impression of me is that you play a dead villain for ten thousand years. You still dare to use me. I thought I I will never have a chance to transform in my life, you are a fool, you let me play a good person, you are not afraid that your movie will be dragged down by me—”

"Brother Zheng," Ning Han couldn't help interrupting him.

"Ok?"

"I can't listen to nasty words either."

"..."

The author says:

There is nothing to say, just... Ning Han is really an attacker...
