I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 160: Two Business Deals (33)

Zhao Lusi is very grateful to Shen Liang. Her current popularity is basically due to the CP promotion with Shen Liang!
In the already aired "The Legend of Phoenix", the only thing that went viral was Guan Xiaotong's sewing machine look... and Yang Rong was also robbed of the role.

Ma Xueyun, played by Zhao Lusi, has little presence...

Well, the whole show has no presence!

The only trending search is 'Guan Xiaotong's paralyzed acting'...

The month that "Phoenix Prisoner" was broadcast, "The Legend of the Sea", "The Advisors Alliance: The Tiger Roars and the Dragon Roars", and "Nirvana in Fire: The Wind Rises in Changlin" were all broadcast...

The key is that it’s bad but it doesn’t have any style.

Want to watch bad dramas? That month there are three new dramas: "A Step into the Past", "The Strongest Man", and "National Husband"...

In short, Ruth herself did not gain national popularity due to her role in this drama, and the most popular news about her was still the scandal!
However, since this was a thank-you banquet, it was not appropriate for him to accompany her alone. Shen Liang drank two cups with her, then went to find Wang Han, oh, and took her room card...

Wang Han calmly accepted the toast from Shen Liang and Yang Di...

This is normal. "Mars" is Wang Han's show, and Shen Liang and Yang Di are both his younger brothers!
Shen Liang himself also respects Wang Han quite a bit, and he did become popular because of "Mars". No matter what, he bears the imprint of Wang Han.

As for Yang Di...

Originally, "Mars" only planned to invite him to be a mid-level agent, but Wang Han appreciated him and directly called him from the back row to the front row!
"You want to go back to filming?"

"…Well, this time I've been gone for three days. I guess the crew is upset!"

"There's nothing I can do about it. You have a job..." Wang Han thought for a moment and said, "Come to Day Day Up next week if you're free..."

Shen Liang shook his head: "No, I have to go to the Spring Festival Gala rehearsal next week..."

"Already in a row?"

"Well, the first rehearsal... there should be one more."

“The Spring Festival Gala is more important…”

In addition to Wang Han, Xue Zhiqian, Tian Yuan, Qian Feng, Shen Mengchen, Xue Zhiqian and Zhu Zhen all clinked their glasses.

They are all seniors and colleagues...

At about eleven o'clock, Shen Liang returned to the hotel...

Well, Ruth's hotel.

The original plan was to sing with a group of people until one in the morning - his flight was at 2:30 in the morning.

This is a change of plan.

Compared to pure catharsis like singing, the most correct way to express art is to blend the two!
……

The crew of "Do You Know?"

In fact, the crew members were not optimistic about Shen Liang at first.

First, he joined the team late, a month later than scheduled;
Secondly, after joining the team, I felt that this person was a bit arrogant and didn’t actively communicate with others…

Finally...

He is too busy. He just filmed one scene and he has to take another leave!
An actor who always takes leave is not a good actor.

Most importantly, he has no works and has not proven his acting skills.

A handsome young artist...

You're not taking filming seriously!

It perfectly fits the lowest end of the current contempt chain in the circle - young and handsome guys!

Since last year, there has been a wave of criticism against young and handsome men in the industry...

A lot of respected seniors came out to criticize the young actor.

Like being unprofessional, disrespectful to seniors, and having no professional ethics...

In fact, their logic is wrong. Their logic is based on the actor's job, or based on their cognition: an actor must first polish his work before he can become famous!
They equate the idol actors they recognize with young and handsome young men.

For the popular young actors, acting is just a job, not even their main job...

For example, some time ago, Wu Yifan became the first star to appear on the five major fashion "men's and women's magazines" - this is their profession and the business logic behind it, and this logic is 'how to make your image bring more value to yourself and related things'!
For him, performing is just one of their businesses, not their main job!
You criticized them for being unprofessional in acting...

Do people need to be dedicated? The selling point is just a face!

Well, many staff members of the “Knowing” crew also equated Shen Liang with this type of person.

And he is the kind of person who has capital behind him and you can't mess with him!

So, how to deal with such people?
It is impossible to respect, at most you can just ignore it...

The first episode of "Singer" was broadcast...

Shen Liang’s “Wukong” went viral - because of this song, Shen Liang’s Weibo followers increased by nearly 30, and that’s because it was only aired for two days…

What do the crew of “The Story of Minglan” think about this?
Anyway, when Shen Liang returned to Hengdian, producer Hou Hongliang and director Zhang Kaizhou came to invite him to compose the theme song. Shen Liang took out the two songs he had prepared, "Do You Know?" and "Ru Meng Ling".

“I wrote these two songs after I read the script… I think “Do You Know?” can be the theme song, and “Ru Meng Ling” can be the interlude song!”

Zhang Kaizhou took the lyrics and was surprised: "You have already written it?"

"…I am a musician. Since I am acting, of course I have to prepare a theme song…"

"just in case…"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "If you don't want to use it, then don't use it. If there is a more suitable one, you must use a more suitable one! But I think it will be difficult to surpass the "Do You Know?" I wrote..."

"The willow trees are tied to the boat, we hold hands and look at each other with tears in our eyes,

From now on, my sorrowful heart will follow the bright moon, and I will accompany you for thousands of miles.

After years of missing you, how can drinking alone relieve my sorrow?

Who sent the letter from the clouds? The west wind fills the building.

The rain and wind were violent last night.

I tried the questionnaire, but Dao Haitang remained the same.

Do you know, do you know? It should be green and fat and red and thin.

The lyrics written by Shen Liang were adapted by netizens, and the original lyrics are too bad.

Excluding the part of Li Qingzhao's "Ru Meng Ling", the content of the first two paragraphs of the lyrics can be said to be randomly piled up, illogical, and incomprehensible. From the perspective of creative attitude, it can be said to be very careless - if one has three to five hundred poems and is familiar with ancient Chinese, if one is a little more serious and can figure out the meaning of the words he uses, he would not write such a weird sentence as "一任宫长勇瘦"!

"The lyrics are indeed good...but is this a duet between a man and a woman?"

"Well, I'm going to ask Yu Kewei to sing with me... I think her voice is perfect for this song!"

Zhang Kaizhou was silent for a moment, then asked Hou Hongliang: "Is Zhao Liying a singer?"

Hou Hongliang was not sure, so he asked Shen Liang: "She is not?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "She's not... Even if she is, I'm not suitable to sing with her... I can lower the key a bit and let her sing with Feng Shaofeng... and make two versions!"

Zhang Kaizhou: “That’s fine…”

Hou Hongliang nodded: "Then I want both of them!"

"Hmm..." Shen Liang nodded, remembering something, and said, "I will write songs for any script that touches me... I auditioned for "The Eastward Flowing River" before, and although I was not selected, I also wrote a song... Would you like to take a look?"

"'The Great River Flows East'?"

Hou Hongliang took the lyrics and music from Shen Liang, and the song was titled "Harmony with the Light and Dust"...

"Be in harmony with the world" comes from Lao Tzu's "Tao Te Ching", which means to live in a non-confrontational manner.

"The Great River Flows East" was renamed "The Great River Flows Flowing East", and the song "Harmony with the Light and Dust" is absolutely suitable for the direction of "The Great River Flows Flowing East" - from the small streams flowing from the mountains, converging into a river, and finally flowing east into the sea.

There is a line in the lyrics: 'Look at the blooming flowers, they come from the seeds of expectation; look at the abundant fruits, they come from the romance of cultivation; the broad river comes from the streams that converge from all directions; the rushing river comes from the nourishment of the mountains...'

Eventually it becomes a mighty, surging, rolling torrent!
It echoes with the background story of carrying the mission of revitalizing the country and family, and complements each other brilliantly!
It’s perfect for “A Flowing River”!

Hou Hongliang clapped his hands and said, "This song is so well written...I want it!"

"Well... Thank you so much, Mr. Hou. You can talk to my agent about the specific price..." At this point, Shen Liang kindly reminded: "It would be best to finalize it before the Spring Festival Gala. I will be on the Spring Festival Gala this year..."

Zhang Kaizhou frowned: "You want to be on the Spring Festival Gala? Then you need to ask for leave again?"
