The screenwriter must think clearly about the character's surface and potential desires, as well as the goals and obstacles he wants.
The potential desire of the character must be opposite to the apparent desire, otherwise his value is not written (commercial film only).
At that time in the story, it shows the interweaving of the desires of the characters with each other.
It is about the character's desire to win at the time.
But the character's apparent desires and potential desires, and the struggle hidden under the water, are still surging.
Positive desires and potential desires, just like Sun Tzu's art of war, "to win with Zheng Qi, to win with Qi", Zheng Qi changes at any time.
The character's actions determine what his desires are at the time. The above is right, and the below is strange.
Zhengqi changes with each other at any time.
"Those who are surprisingly good are infinite as heaven and earth, and inexhaustible as rivers and seas."
The characters are all desires on and under the water, entangled with each other, inspired each other, and reciprocated.
In this way, we can also write colorful group performances.
First group:
Gua, dad
Appearance desire: the whole family must be together, but it makes everyone unhappy. Love one person and resist everything, and don't love to confide in your troubles with your family.
Potential desire: happiness is a family. Hungry for a channel to talk.
Obstacle: Xiao Yi wants to leave with her boyfriend
Hope, civilized father
Surface desire: I want Guy to be a son-in-law, and feel slightly unbearable for his wife. Believe in wisdom, long to be alone, look down on the rudeness of the Guru family
Potential desire: I want to be a good father and make my daughter happy. Not longing to be alone, but longing for family friendship, longing for friendship
At first, Gua Ge's apparent desire and Hope's apparent desire collided with each other.
Although Hope looked down on the rudeness of the Guru family, he relied on his wisdom to inspire Gua Ge's potential desire, and he began to talk about his distress, so the two initially established a superficial friendship.
When the two found out that neither of them was a "good father", and found that making family members happy can truly be together,
Gu Ge's latent desire and Hope's latent desire instantly matched, so tears filled their eyes, and they became banana brothers like glue.
Second Group:
Xiao Yi, eldest daughter
Surface desire: hot unreserved love
Potential desire: mutual affection
Obstacles: Father hates them for being crooked. Guy is eager to go to tomorrow, but she doesn't understand what it is, and blindly agrees.
Cover, boys
Surface desire: there is love, but to find home, tomorrow. At first I thought he was looking for a civilized man's home, but it was not.
Latent desire: looking for the home of the heart.
Obstacles: Gua brother wants to be a family and will not leave. Xiaoyi wants unreserved love and doesn't know how to compromise.
This group is easier to understand:
Xiaoyi wants unreserved love, and Guy pursues love, but thinks that only by finding hometomorrow, there will be true love.
Guy came to the home of a civilized man, thinking that was the hometomorrow he wanted, but Xiao Yi thought that was wrong.
In the end, Guy also recognized the mistake, and truly understood that being with Xiaoyi and his family is hometomorrow.
The third group:
grandmother
Appearance desire: mixed eating and waiting to die
Potential desire: thunder mad flower
Obstacles: aging and unresponsive people.
Civilized mother
Surface desire: I want Guy to be a son-in-law, love cleanliness, love independence, look down on the rudeness of the Guru family
Potential desire: I want my daughter to be happy, want to be wild, and envy the intimacy of the Guru family
Obstacles: environment and lack of guides.
This group is very cool. The grandmother who eats and waits to die brings the most changed civilized mother and a group of women into a thunderous flower, saves men, and defeats King Kong.
Group 4: Tool People
elder brother
Surface desire: like the scenery outside the window
Latent desire: like the outside world
Xiaoxiao
Surface desire: don't like being overprotected, want to go to the outside world
Latent desire: get rid of shackles and gain friendship
Xiaoshan
The superficial desire and the latent desire are completely unified, that is, eating, smelling, and beating!
