I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 16 Recording Songs
Guo Fan really loves science fiction movies!

His previous film, "You Are the One", was a super successful commercial film.

Even though the film may not be that good, but an investment of 1700 million in exchange for a box office of 5 million, this level of return on investment is the dream product of all film investors.

For investors, a movie like Avatar, which costs 3-5 million U.S. dollars, takes five years to produce, and finally earns 28 billion U.S. dollars at the box office...

The return on investment looks high, but it is not a good product!

Because the cycle is too long, you don’t know how the market will react, and there are countless examples of failures.

If he wants, Director Guo Fan can continue to make money...

After the success of "You Are the One Sitting Next to Me", Guo Fan signed a contract with Sister Hua and joined Beijing Language and Culture University. He had a bright future and was always eager to receive all the projects that came his way.

But he devoted himself to making science fiction movies even though investors from all walks of life were knocking on his door!
"The Wandering Earth" is not favored by investors!
A movie in the eyes of investors and a movie in the eyes of the audience are two different things. This is why we tried so hard to play with traffic before. The reason is that it makes money quickly and has a high return on investment.

So, Wanda withdrew its investment later...

Guo Fan's idea is to shoot the ground line well, and then use this plot to continue to attract investors to add money...

Therefore, after receiving part of the budget funds, Guo Fan directly rented the largest studio in Qingdao Film and Television Base, and built an underground city, an ice field, a planetary engine control room, and a space station in the studio.
Make everything that can be realized into reality.

This real scene covers an area of ​​10 square meters, which is equivalent to a large residential area!
The scene is built with great care...

Some excavators in the canyon have safety slogans added to them, such as "Return home safely"...

Ma Hao walked around for ten minutes and couldn't help but exclaim: "Wow, this is too detailed!"

Shen Liang explained: "The director said that we have to make it look like the real thing, so that when it is about to be destroyed, you will feel that there are people inside, and you will feel truly distressed."

"I still don't think it's good for Chinese people to make science fiction..."

Ma Hao curled his lips and said something from his heart...

This is normal. In fact, after learning that China Film Group wanted to make The Wandering Earth, Liu's fans shouted online, "Don't let the Chinese make it! Don't let the Chinese make it! Don't let the Chinese make it!"

Not only Liu's fans, but also directors and actors in the industry have almost concluded that "China cannot produce a true science fiction film under the current conditions."

It's not surprising that Ma Hao would have such an idea...

Shen Liang: "You have an old idea. I think Guo Fan will definitely succeed..."

"Why are you so sure?"

Guo Fan is a little different from the mainstream in the circle.

What kind of circle is the entertainment industry?
Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about things like unspoken rules. In other industries, it is done secretly, but in this circle, it is almost regarded as an explicit rule, and keeping oneself clean is something that should be written in the news.

They even brag about it!

What about "the little girls outside are rushing towards us in groups" and "since we have boys in our family, we won't suffer any loss"...

Make a youth film called "So Young", it's all about skipping classes and having abortions; make an art film, it's all about keeping mistresses.

Is literature and art just a matter of men and women?
Not to be ashamed of, but to be proud of.

The audience is not allowed to criticize. If they criticize, it means you are feudal, backward and don’t understand art…

Shen Liang smiled and said, "I read the script and also saw the execution of this crew... Most importantly, Guo Fan really focused on industrial civilization, while our mainstream directors are still thinking about agricultural civilization!"

Ma Hao didn't want to discuss this and changed the subject: "So, you don't want pay?"

"That's right..." Shen Liang added, "And by the way, I also invested 1000 million..."

"1000?"

Ma Hao calculated and asked in surprise, "You put all your money on it?"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "…Shooting a science fiction film definitely costs money. I am very confident that The Wandering Earth will definitely be a hit!"

Ma Hao was speechless: "...As long as you are happy." "If you have money, you can also invest a little..."

“I don’t dare to invest in movies…”

Well, Tianyu’s previous investment in movies has seen more losses than wins…

Ma Hao himself has no interest in making movies!

However, when "The Wandering Earth" is released, Ma Hao will definitely regret his decision today...

……

Ma Hao left that day, leaving an entire team to Shen Liang.

Three people, executive agents, responsible for itinerary and announcement-related work...

In addition, there are makeup and hair styling, assistants, and assistants who also serve as drivers...

Shen Liang is the face of Wajijiwa, and he should not be spared from the necessary configuration.

In the past, celebrity assistants were introduced by acquaintances or directly from their family members and relatives...

Many celebrities’ assistants are their mothers, brothers, and sisters.

The advantage of doing this is that it shields you from all risks posed by strangers.

So it’s rare to see celebrities’ privacy being leaked by their assistants…

Of course, most stars now have assistants assigned by their own agencies. These assistants are professionally trained star assistants who are more familiar with and understand the lives and work of stars. They are professionals doing professional things...

As Shen Liang's assistant, he must monitor online public opinion at all times and review every appearance.

Shen Liang broadcasts live every week, so this must be the focus of monitoring. When Shen Liang is broadcasting live, it is easy for him to get carried away, and when he gets carried away, it is easy for him to say the wrong thing...

As a contestant who has become popular again in "The Next Generation of Idols", Shen Liang is in a positive and optimistic state. His upward trend has hindered many people...

Because resources are limited!

If you go up, it means someone must be coming down...

Fortunately, Shen Liang's current image is "fun" + "talented"...

TV series that have not received any big IPs have not fallen into the most intense competitive environment, otherwise, just wait to be torn apart!
There is a term in the fan circle: explosion-proof.

Whenever a new artist comes up, they will use all kinds of tricks to seduce passers-by and rival fans, maliciously spread rumors, distort facts, instigate young fans to fight, and make the new artist suffer...

Shen Liang is a bit outspoken, and he dared to confront the instructor directly when participating in the program...

He left a lot of evidence during the live broadcast - disrespect for women!
Although, his topics fall into two categories: one is to persuade men not to be lickers; the other is to persuade men to give up…

'Brothers, don't be a licker. There is no good end for lickers... Put aside the cloak of civilization and focus on the primitive biological instinct. If you think carefully about the relationship between males and females in nature, you will find that licking does not give you the right to mate!'

'When a woman can control your emotions, don't hesitate, delete her... The so-called love can provide stable emotional value, not like a roller coaster every day...'

These two sentences were commented on in Xiaohongshu!
So, Shen Liang is also a "low-class man". Fortunately, he is handsome, otherwise he would be a low-class + greasy + out of the entertainment industry!

Oh, Shen Liang started recording songs...

It’s very easy to release songs now, just register them on QQ Music…

The company didn’t even approve the budget for the MV…

This is normal. We need to understand the role of MVs, which is to promote music and express a song in more detail.

Instead of spending money on making music videos, it’s better to spend it on online marketing…

But Shen Liang was determined to shoot it. He had promised his brothers during the live broadcast that he would shoot it even if it was simple!
