The story of "Thin Cherry" could be traced back to the Bai Ying case from twenty years ago. The main character, Cheng Wu's wife, Jiang Si, had an argument with Cheng Wu in the early morning of March 21, 1998, and killed him. Then, she killed the five members of the Cheng family, including her son, one by one and dismembered them to vent her anger. This was a shocking and shocking case at the time. It was also because of this case that the large number of wives who had been hiding in the shadows were exposed to the light in an unexpected way.
Jiang Si's method of committing the crime was extremely cruel, and the victims were family members who had lived with her for nearly 10 years, including her own son who had just entered primary school. When this case came out, the whole world was furious. They all accused Jiang Si of being worse than animals. Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs, but she was simply crazy!
At that time, the Internet was not developed yet. People who learned about the case through the newspapers began to speculate about this woman called Jiang Si with the worst intentions.
She must be the daughter of a butcher, so she didn't take human lives seriously.
Her son was not her biological son. Otherwise, how could she be so cruel?
The Cheng family must have treated her very badly. They beat and scolded her every day to drive her crazy!
She had never been educated. She was usually very arrogant and domineering. Her father was an official, she …
However, with the in-depth understanding of the case, an unacceptable reality was placed in front of the world: Jiang Si was the only daughter of the deputy director of the city hospital. She had been well-educated since she was young, was beautiful, and had a gentle personality. The Cheng family also treated Jiang Si very well and treated her like their own daughter. Every time the Cheng family went out, they would praise her endlessly. The Cheng family itself was a scholarly family. Cheng Ying's parents were intellectuals. The eldest son of the Cheng family became the secretary of the county party committee before he was 40 and had a promising future. Cheng Ying himself also had an iron rice bowl job in a government agency …
If there was a concept of "winner in life" at that time, it must be referring to Jiang Si.
But why?
Why?!
Why did Jiang Si, who had such a happy family, do such a cruel thing?!
The whole country held their breath as they waited for the trial of Jiang Si's case … Yes, it was still called Jiang Si's case at that time, but after the first day of the trial, people called this very representative case: Bai Ying's case.
It involved the other two protagonists of the case: Cai Bowen and Cheng Ying.
They were both gay.
Jiang Si, on the other hand, had been his wife for nearly ten years.
Hidden behind the cruelty of Bai Ying's case was a tragedy brought about by the times and culture. It was so deep and dark.
After Jiang Si's case broke out, the wives all over the country seemed to have been stimulated. They quickly gathered together and, with the help of a fearless media, exposed the lives of the wives and the family tragedies in front of the public.
Be it shock or disbelief.
What descended upon even more people was fear.
Whether it was the wives, the families of the wives, or the families of the homosexuals, they were all terrified of the fate of the Cheng family and Jiang Si.
They all realized that bringing innocent girls into the swamp of marriage was not redemption or cover up, but an abyss.
The next year, under the agitation of the public, the country had no choice but to introduce laws related to same-sex marriage, openly recognizing same-sex marriages.
However, as time passed, China's same-sex marriage laws and regulations changed again and again, becoming stricter and stricter. Information related to Bai Ying's case was also deliberately suppressed, which inevitably made people suspect that the law was just a temporary measure.
However, that was a digression. Now, they were faced with the problem of the script and filming.
The day after the four-man meeting, they went to Meng Chuan, the original director of "Thin Cherry" in her previous life.
In her previous life, Meng Chuan had spent his entire life working on commercial films. The only literary film he had directed was "Thin Cherry". "Thin Cherry" did not disappoint him and brought him the highest artistic achievement of his career.
In this life, other than "Thin Cherry", he had already directed "Cat and An Xue".
"'Thin Cherry'? No way? You guys even got your hands on a script like that? " When he heard that Xie Yifeng and Zhou Yuhe wanted to direct "Thin Cherry", Meng Chuan's eyes lit up. Obviously, he had heard of "Thin Cherry" before. However, the next moment, his bright eyes quickly dimmed.
"'Thin Cherry' is no longer the same as before. It was so good when it first came out. I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to buy it now …" Meng Chuan sighed.
Xie Yifeng and Zhou Yuhe were not surprised by Meng Chuan's attitude.
This was because they had expected him to say this.
In fact, with Bai Ying's case as a foundation, as long as "Thin Cherry" did not go overboard, the results would definitely not be bad. Moreover, "Thin Cherry" was a good script that had been polished many times. Therefore, when it appeared in the market back then, it attracted a lot of attention from various investors and had always been in high demand.
However, "Thin Cherry" also had a fatal problem.
The script was not complete.
