Chapter 312: Qi Yan Ruthlessly Insults Chen Wenyu

The plot was of him helping a young couple that was about to get married. They were arguing over buying a house and a car, and there was also a particularly unreasonable seller.

In order for this young couple to have less debt and so that they could continue pursuing their dreams, Shu Jie gave them all his savings. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough.

After repeated persuasion and mediation by Shu Jie, the unreasonable seller was finally willing to make some concessions, but there was still some balance left to be paid.

At that moment, a passer-by heard everything and generously resolved the conflict.

It was a peaceful ending. Everyone’s faces brimmed with happiness. It was wonderful!

After the performance ended, it was time for the directors’ comments.

The usually quiet Qi Yan was the first to raise her hand.

The host, Xu Xuan, naturally hurried to say, “Director Qi, please.”

Then, Qi Yan said, “I think this work is very unreasonable. First of all, let’s not talk about whether or not there’s a person like Shu Jie in real life. The appearance of the passer-by at the end is like a deus ex machina! This is anathema in drama scripts!

“With a protagonist who experiences countless difficulties, viewers want to see how he solves all his problems through his own efforts. In the end, such a powerful figure suddenly appears and solves all the problems for the protagonist without a word. Viewers may be dumbfounded and even angry at this!

“Why didn’t he rely on himself?

“Why did this person suddenly show up out of nowhere?

“Is it because the screenwriter was lazy and unable to find a solution?

“As for the previous performances…”

Qi Yan rattled off a bunch of absolutely incendiary things.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

She, a mere newbie director, actually dared to insult Chen Wenyu?

Chen Wenyu!

He was the only person in China who had ever won the Palme d’Or director’s award!

However, after some thought, many people, or even most people, agreed with her.

The comments were already rolling by in the live stream —

[To be honest, although my opinion of Qi Yan dropped a little because of what happened yesterday, I have to say that her evaluation is very reasonable! The main character is bustling around, but someone suddenly comes along to resolve the conflict; it feels like it was all for nothing. It’s especially boring.]

[That’s right, that’s right, I think so too! Why doesn’t the protagonist solve the problem with his own capability? If he relies on a deus ex machina, which is also a golden finger, can he still be considered the protagonist? It’s fine if it’s fantasy or an online novel, but this is a production about real life!]

[That’s right. Also, this protagonist is too good to be true! Personally, I think Shu Jie is a fool. Why are you giving up so much for someone else? Who knows, people might laugh at you behind your back. I really can’t stand it!!]

One after another, the online users became even more enthusiastic. They felt like Qi Yan had spoken their minds!

On the other side, Director Chen, the director of this production, listened attentively the entire time. Now, he just smiled slightly and didn’t even look at Qi Yan.

Or, was he looking down on Qi Yan?

As the host, Xu Xuan said weakly, “Then, Director Qi has already shared her thoughts. Director Chen, do you want to explain the original intention behind your production?”
