Daily life in anime: I use my inner power to exorcise demons

Chapter 58

"5 points!"

As Chen Sicheng gave the score, the scene fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's eyes widened, as if they couldn't believe their ears.

Whether it was the audience in the live broadcast room, or the major bidding companies.

Even the other three judges, and the contestants.

Everyone's jaw dropped.

Xiao Sa was the first to come to his senses, and he asked tentatively:

"Did you just say 5 points?"

Chen Sicheng put one hand in his trouser pocket, held the microphone with the other hand, and said in a deep voice:

"Yes, that's 5 points."

After getting Chen Sicheng's affirmative answer, Xiao Sa quickly adjusted his expression and was about to ask a question, but was interrupted by Chen Sicheng.

Chen Sicheng looked calm and said slowly:

"Don't worry, Teacher Xiao Sa, let me tell you slowly."

He looked around and saw everyone's expectant eyes, and continued:

"I know you may be confused about this 5 points"

"But allow me to explain my reasoning for this rating."

"I have always had my own set of criteria for judging scripts."

"And external factors will never affect my judgment"

"I will analyze why Su Chen's script can only get 5 points from three aspects."

"The first aspect: I think this story lacks completeness."

"Compared with other contestants' scripts, Su Chen's script is almost a semi-finished product."

"The setting of Pinocchio is not new, and it has appeared in many similar movies."

"But the script didn't include the real Pinocchio."

"What is the subsequent development of placer gold?"

"Will the corporation eventually invade the family?"

"This part is missing"

"So I think that Su Chen didn’t do a good job in terms of story integrity."

"Of course, this may be related to the three-hour time limit of the game."

"But a game is a game, and rules are rules"

"Since you are participating in this competition, you must abide by the rules of the competition."

"The second aspect: In my opinion, Su Chen is somewhat off topic"

"The title was [Gambler], but Su Chen wrote [Gambler's Life]】"

"These two are completely different concepts"

"Although there is some connection, it is just a trick."

"The key point of level 27 is that there are not many plots in the script about gambling with gold and life."

"This also caused the whole story to deviate seriously from the proposition"

"Looking at other contestants, most of them are based on the premise of"Gambler" and then set up the plot"

"For example,"My Father, the King of Gamblers","God of Gamblers 2","God of Gamblers Prequel", etc."

"In contrast"

"Su Chen's script doesn't seem to fit the topic that well."

"The more you look, the more biased"

"The third aspect: the problem of skirting the line"

"I believe that the audience who watched the live broadcast are very clear"

"The reason why Su Chen's script has received so much attention"

"A big reason is that they used"gamble life" as a gimmick"

"To attract more audiences"

"According to the program's rules, Su Chen's behavior is very risky and may be suspected of guiding people to have bad values."

"Just imagine, if other contestants wrote [betting on women], [betting on rights], etc., would they also be able to catch attention?"

"Su Chen's practice of taking advantage of loopholes even misled the bidding company and caused it to misjudge"

"But in my opinion, Su Chen's script has low commercial value"

"First: The script takes place in a science fiction world, and the current film and television technology in Longguo may not be able to film it"

"Second: The key characters in the script are relatively young, but the acting skills required are relatively high. Everyone knows the acting skills of young domestic actors."

"Even if it is made into a movie, it will definitely be a bad movie"

"So, in my comprehensive judgment,"

"I can only give it 5 points!"

At this point, Chen Sicheng looked at Su Chen with a serious expression, and said with a smile:

"Su Chen, I hope you won't be discouraged."

"I was just pointing out the problems in your script."

"You are still young, and you can get guidance from seniors, which can help you avoid many detours."

"And like the other judges, I think you have some talent."

"It's just that within the framework of our competition, your script doesn't satisfy me."

"Even if I only give you five points, you can still advance to the next round"

"I believe you will be able to hand in a more perfect answer later. I look forward to your new work!"

While Chen Sicheng was explaining the reason for his scoring, five cameras turned to Su Chen, capturing every subtle expression on his face.

However, to everyone's surprise, Su Chen's face did not show any drastic emotional fluctuations.

He maintained a calm look, as if he was not surprised by Chen Sicheng's doubts.

"Thank you Mr. Chen Sicheng for your comments. I will work harder in the future."

At this moment, Chen Sicheng was stunned.

He originally wanted to stimulate Su Chen by giving low scores, so that he would show timidity in front of many cameras.

However, Su Chen's calmness was completely beyond his expectations.

Facing low scores and doubts, Su Chen not only did not show any displeasure or nervousness, but seemed indifferent.

In fact,

Su Chen did not take Chen Sicheng's comments to heart at all.

How could he not know whether the gold sand was popular?

No matter how you, Chen Sicheng, belittle it, you can't deny an excellent script.

But then again, Chen Sicheng's twisted logic is set.

It can be clearly seen that he has a little prejudice against Su Chen.

Su Chen didn't know when he had offended Chen Sicheng.

I can't figure it out...

But since the other party is a judge

Su Chen would not be like a shrew and curse him in public.

That would only damage his image.

He has a mouth on his body, so he can say whatever he wants.

Su Chen has no right to interfere, so he doesn't care.

Five points is five points.

As long as he can advance.

As for whether he can get the first place to advance?

This is not important to Su Chen at all.

That's why Su Chen acted so calm.

However, when the audience in the live broadcast room saw Su Chen being targeted by Chen Sicheng, the barrage was like a volcanic eruption, full of angry remarks.

【This Chen Sicheng is going too far. He is obviously targeting Su Chen!】

【Su Chen's script is so good, how could it only be given five points?!】

【Is there something wrong with this judge? I feel his judgment is not fair at all!】

【No way, did I hear it wrong? Is there something wrong with Chen Sicheng?】

【This really made me laugh! This is all nonsense. How did such a person become a judge?】

【What does it mean to lack completeness? Don’t you know that many high-scoring movies have blank spaces?】

【That is to say, it is because of the existence of blank space that it is more profound!!】

【This guy is still posing there, does he really think he is handsome? I am so disgusted】

……

On the stage.

After Chen Sicheng expressed his opinion.

He felt so happy.

Of course, he could guess that netizens must be furious.

But what does it have to do with him?

Netizens can scold him.

He won't lose a penny.

On the contrary, the more netizens scold him, the happier he feels.

"" I am the judge, not you. I say the score, and that's it. If you have the ability, you can be the judge."

Chen Sicheng was smug.

However, at this moment, a deep voice suddenly appeared, shocking the whole scene:"You, five points?!"

Jiang Wen strode to the center of the stage and snatched the microphone from Chen Sicheng.

He looked at Chen Sicheng with a sharp gaze and asked firmly:

"Teacher Chen, it is your right to give a five-point score, but your judgment logic is bullshit to me!"

This sudden change shocked everyone.

Even Chen Siben himself did not expect Jiang Wen to challenge him so openly for Su Chen.

"Teacher Jiang, you……"

"Don't worry, let me speak first."

Jiang Wen's voice revealed unquestionable authority.

"I have been in this industry for many years and I have never seen such ridiculous ratings."

"Su Chen's script is excellent in terms of creativity, plot and characterization. Your five-point rating is an insult to everyone's IQ."

"Teacher Chen, you said Su Chen's script is not very complete?"

"Then I would like to ask you, what does high degree of completion mean?"

"As a professional screenwriter, don’t you know what blank space means?"

"《Life of Pi, Inception, The Fast and the Furious, etc. all use the same blank space technique"

"This method of not telling the story in full and letting the audience participate in the imagination is a kind of blank space in the story."

"The blank space in the story is often used at the end, which is an open ending."

"This blank space technique that can trigger audience thinking and discussion, you actually said that the completion is not high?"

Jiang Wen's words directly made Chen Sicheng speechless and his face flushed.

The key is that Jiang Wen's words are very reasonable and well-founded.

"Teacher Jiang, I……"

"You listen to me first." Jiang Wen held up the microphone and did not give Chen Sicheng any chance to speak.

"But let's talk about your second point - going off topic."

"Whether it is off topic or not is not up to you to decide"

"During the competition, Xiao Sa had already asked the program team"

"What is the response of the program team? [Gambling with Life] is also a theme of [Gambler]"

"Not only that, the program team also praised Su Chen's ideas as very novel"

"But when it comes to you, it becomes off topic?"

"Speaking of this, I have to talk about the problem of homogeneity."

"In this round, how many contestants chose the same subject matter? The same background? The same central idea?"

"You don't think this is a good thing, do you?"

"Don't forget that the purpose of the Young Screenwriters Competition is to create good stories."

Jiang Wen's voice was powerful, like a huge bell, shaking everyone's heart.

Every word and sentence he said seemed to carry endless power, penetrating people's hearts, filling the audience's body with blood and shaking with excitement.

Of course, except for Chen Sicheng.

Xiao Sa originally wanted to mediate, but the program director stopped Xiao Sa.

After all, they also thought that Chen Sicheng's comments were biased.

Jiang Wen continued:

"Next, let's talk about the last one, the edge issue"

"What does it mean to attract attention by skirting the line?"

"You've always said this before, and I wanted to refute you."

"Of course, I admit that Su Chen's"Gambling Life" does have some suspicion of being on the edge."

"But that was also a misjudgment made without us knowing the plot."

"Anyone with eyes knows what the core idea of Su Chen’s script is?"

"「Living towards death」"

"You call this negative energy? And it's borderline? It's hilarious!"

"Not only that"

"Su Chen's script also contains very profound philosophical thinking"

"「Nihilism and Existentialism」"

"Haven't you seen all this?"

"I'm leaving this here today."

"I'm here to be a judge for the Young Screenwriters Competition"

"There is only one purpose, to find good stories"

"As long as the story is reasonable, legal, and in line with the requirements of the program team,"

"Then everything else is secondary."

"As for what you said, it has no commercial value"

"Sorry, I think it has great commercial value."

"So I think the three points you mentioned before are all nonsense."

After Jiang Wen finished speaking, he handed the microphone back to Xiao Sa without hesitation, then returned to the judges' seat with his hands behind his back and his head held high.

The studio was now in silence, without any sound, as if even the air had frozen.

Everyone opened their mouths wide, but could not speak, shocked by Jiang Wen's words and momentum.

They looked at Jiang Wen's back, their hearts filled with respect and admiration.

""Pa pa pa!"

Liu Heping was the first to applaud. Although his applause was not loud, it was like a nuclear bomb dropped into the calm sea, which immediately caused huge waves.

Under his leadership, the atmosphere in the entire studio was instantly ignited.

Seeing Liu Heping applauding, Zhang Songwen also applauded without hesitation.

With the leadership of the two heavyweight judges, everyone present reacted and joined in the applause.

The applause was deafening, surging like waves, filling the entire studio.

At the same time, all the 357 viewers in the live broadcast room were trembling with excitement.

【Teacher Jiang Wen is really kind, and 357 really touched my heart!】

【I cried. Teacher Jiang Wen was really tough. She made Chen Sicheng speechless.】

【I was thinking that what Chen Sicheng said seemed to make sense, but also seemed to be nonsense. So this is what happened.】

【It feels so good to look at Chen Sicheng in front of everyone!】

【Thank you Teacher Jiang Wen for speaking out!】

【In one word: awesome!】

……

On the stage, Xiao Sa was stunned.

He never expected that Jiang Wen and Chen Sicheng would have such a fierce dispute over Su Chen's score.

Chen Sicheng's comments were indeed shocking.

But Jiang Wen's domineering response was even more unexpected.

Xiao Sa shook his head helplessly.

He knew that this game was beyond his control.

I'm afraid that Su Chen's popularity has now rushed to the headlines of major social media.

……

Chen Sicheng became the target of public criticism.

Feeling the contemptuous gazes of the crowd, Chen Sicheng smiled instead of getting angry.

He held up the microphone and said word by word:

"Teacher Jiang Wen, can I speak now?"

Jiang Wen crossed her arms and remained silent, not bothering to pay attention to Chen Sicheng.

Chen Sicheng's mouth twitched.

"Let me remind you that I am also one of the judges."

"I have my own criteria for judging scripts."

"No one can interfere with my judgment."

Chen Sicheng's tit-for-tat did not surprise Jiang Wen. He snorted coldly and responded:

"I don't mean to change your opinion."

"Of course, you can't change my opinion."

"Again, your review is complete nonsense to me."

"You!"

Chen Sicheng was so angry at Jiang Wen's words that his face turned blue. He obviously didn't expect Jiang Wen to refute him so firmly.

Taking a deep breath, he tried to calm down his emotions, and then said word by word:

"My final score is still five points, and it won't change."

After that, he handed the microphone back to Xiao Sa and returned to the judges' seat with a sullen face.

However, Jiang Wen had no intention of continuing to pay attention to Chen Sicheng. He changed the subject and suddenly cast his eyes on Su Chen in the contestant seat.

Jiang Wen's face showed deep encouragement,

"Su Chen!"

"Don't let other people's comments affect your creation, you have done a good job"

"Keep it up and strive to create more exciting content"

"Remember, a screenwriter's best weapon is a good story."

"Remember to use your story to shut up other people."

Su Chen nodded heavily and replied,"I understand, Teacher Jiang.��"

Xiao Sa led the applause.

The studio burst into applause.

The applause was like a slap in Chen Sicheng's face.

Xiao Sa didn't waste any time and went straight to the point.

"Next, Su Chen's final score will be announced."
