I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 235 Choose a Variety Show (33)

Variety show resources...

In fact, "variety show stars" are still a hotbed of despise, and most of the artists trained and signed by most brokerage companies tend to develop into singing, dancing, and acting types.

There has never been a management company that said that its main business is to train variety show stars!
Domestic artists are more inclined to position themselves as having more "pursuits", and both artists and audiences feel that variety shows are not considered works.

Shen Liang is different...

He really thinks variety shows are the best way to maintain exposure.

There are so many Chinese stars, it's really hard.

However, there are only a few TV series and movies that can become popular or profitable in a year, and most of them are just a matter of luck.

The success of a work requires the right time, right place and right people...

Moreover, even if your work becomes popular, it doesn’t mean you will become popular as well!
Another point is that in the coming period, during the cold winter of the film and television industry, all circles that are short of money will be worn out, and the Shanghai, Hong Kong, Beijing, and Northwest circles will be directly integrated into one family.

In the past, even the most tycoon investors could spend money without regard to cost. But now, when a large company is working on a project, it has to hire two third parties to conduct background checks before it feels at ease.

Who would dare to hire you without a third-party investigation?

Before recording a variety show, I had to do a urine test first.

I guess that from now on, whenever a TV show or film is shot, it will follow this process...

It might even evolve into a daily routine within the circle.

After all, if you are not careful, the project will sink to the bottom!
Then, the movie stars, idols and gods who have ‘come down to earth’…are regular guests on various variety shows.

——There is no work to do!
Then, the truth that he was empty-headed and uneducated was exposed...

For Shen Liang, he needs variety shows to maintain exposure.

Because he himself never thought about being a pure actor...

Sense of mystery?
Haha, not to mention the frequency of live broadcasting once a week, just the fact that he didn’t appear on the trending searches for a week has changed his mentality a bit…

Still mysterious?

Mysterious Der.

……

"Mars Intelligence Agency is offering 300 million per episode..."

"Wow...so sincere!"

“…Are you sincere?” Chen Jiadong shook his head: “Chinese Restaurant’s asking price is 5000 million per season!”

"... "

Shen Liang is a little numb...

He knew that his salary was high, but... he really didn't expect it to be this expensive!

50 million per season...

It’s just that!

Chen Jiadong asked him: "What do you think?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "I have no idea for now... But I know that I can't take on variety shows right now. There are nearly 500 scenes in "Celebrating Yu Nian" and I have to finish filming them in two months..."

“I know this…” Chen Jiadong nodded: “But what I mean is that after “Celebrating Yu Nian” is over, we have to choose a variety show…”

“I want to be on an indoor variety show!”

"…Indoors, mainly for conversation?"

"Yes!" Shen Liang added, "No games, no reality shows."

"…"Fire Intelligence Bureau" or "Strange Talk"…"

Shen Liang pondered for a moment, then said: "I personally prefer "Mars"... "The Debaters" is a debate show after all, and the focus of the show is still debate..."

"Okay, I got it!" Chen Jiadong nodded, then remembered something: "I heard that Tengxun is also going to do a talk show..."

"Impossible, there are already "Tucao Conference" and "Talk Show Conference"..." Shen Liang waved his hand: "At this stage, there are only four types of online variety shows: dance, cute kids, idol development, and watching others fall in love..."

"…How do you know?"

"I have eyes, I can see...Okay, I'll take a nap first, and I'll wake me up when the crew arrives!"

……

For the crew of "Joy of Life", this time on the "Singer" championship night, Shen Liang and Li Qin's live singing of "Sheng Sheng Man" + "If I Put You"... directly saved tens of millions in publicity costs!
OK, tens of millions is a bit exaggerated, but millions is for sure...

The hero and heroine sang...

And Shen Liang said in an interview afterwards, "... Li Qin and I are working together on "Celebrating Yu Nian", so it's more convenient to find her..."

Although there was no direct promotion of "Celebrating Yu Nian", it was mentioned...

Mango TV and CCTV TV drama channel have proposed purchasing dramas...

In fact, when the project of "Joy of Life" was launched, the model of simultaneous broadcast on the Internet and TV stations was chosen, and Zhejiang Satellite TV and Dragon TV were both among the satellite TV platforms chosen.

We also obtained the satellite TV premiere license!
——In the original time and space, the lead actress Zhang Ruoyun went to the Zhejiang TV investment promotion meeting to promote "Celebrating Yu Nian"...

However, the producer of "Joy of Life", New Classics Media, couldn't wait any longer and directly changed it to online broadcast - the pressure of gambling was too great!
——In order to improve its performance, New Classics released two dramas at the end of the year, "Joy of Life" and "The Elite Lawyer".

Now, CCTV TV drama channel wants to buy dramas...

Then CCTV will definitely be given priority.

——CCTV has issued a new policy for purchasing dramas, which stipulates that one set of eight dramas will be broadcast in parallel with each other. If the eight prime-time dramas perform well, one set can be adjusted to the prime-time slot, or all channels can be broadcast. The most important thing is: ensure timely payment!

It is an industry practice for TV stations to default on their final payments…

I won’t go into details about this. Anyway, because of Shen Liang, Joy of Life has gained another sales channel…

So, when Shen Liang returned to the crew of "Joy of Life", he was greeted by the crew's celebration banquet - to celebrate his winning the runner-up in "Singer"!

"…It's not like I won the title of Singer King, it shouldn't be that serious!"

Shen Liang was a little embarrassed...

Although I accepted the flowers, I felt really bad...

Damn, there’s even camera recording it.

Sun Hao applauded and said, "With so many talented singers, it's great to be ranked second!"

"Director, I am also a talented singer..."

“…Yes, yes, yes…”

On-site producer Zhang Mingchao interrupted: "Brother Liang, say something!"

Shen Liang’s eyes widened…this…what do you want me to say?

After a moment of silence, I could only say: "...Thank you everyone..."

After thinking for a while, he added, "How about this, I'll pay for everyone in our crew's afternoon tea tomorrow!"

"really?"

“…Thank you, Brother Liang!”

This thank you is really sincere...

After all, verbal thanks are not as good as spending real money!
"Okay, I'll go to the dressing room to put on my makeup first..."

After making a promise, Shen Liang hurried to the rest area...

Oh, tonight, he has four scenes to shoot!

This was all arranged in advance, otherwise, Shen Liang would not have had to return to Xiangshan that night...

Well, the filming task is so arduous!

……

"In the finals, I really wanted to win. Otherwise, I wouldn't have carefully arranged "Sheng Sheng Man" + "Ruo You"... The stage and effect of this song are really beautiful. Unfortunately, the audience prefers the direct type. I lost to Jessie J in the first half. I am not convinced..."

"In the second half...Jessie J sang "I will always love you", this thing is cheating...too strong! Especially listening to it live...To be honest, due to physical reasons, Jessie J's singing skills have shrunk a lot, but she still sang her idol's song with 100% dedication..."

"To be honest, after listening to this song live, I already feel a little scared before the battle even begins!"

"I sang the song "Scream" at the end. The original singer of this song is Zhang Shaohan. I really like Zhang Shaohan's first two albums, "Scream", "Fable", "The Horizon", "The Sun in the Palm", "Your Favorite", "Mama", "Floating Clouds", "Aurora"... They are stunning..."

After thinking about it, I deleted the four words "惊为天人" and changed the line

"Thank you to "Singer 2018", thank you to Director Hong Tao, thank you to Mango TV... Thank you to Director Liang Boqiao, thank you to the band teachers I have worked with..."

"Many people asked me how I felt about being the runner-up... I thought about it all the way, and now I can answer: I will continue to work hard! In addition, I feel that I have never won the championship in all the competition programs I participated in... Maybe I am always a little short of the first place..."

"I almost forgot, thank you, beautiful lady Li Qin..."

After checking it, I sent it directly to Weibo, which brought a perfect end to my "Singer 2018" career!
