I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 242: Support (24)

"What about Squidward?"

“…The filming will officially start on July 7th!”

November 7nd…

Shen Liang calculated that he only had two days of free time...

He also has to take a day off to meet Xin Shuang and talk about the details of "Want to See You"...

Alas, being a star is really tiring.

There was too much work, Jing Tian had called him several times...

I really can't get away!
The promise of meeting all requests has completely become empty talk.

This made him feel very uncomfortable.

After all, keeping promises has always been his life creed!

What's the point of being a human if you don't even have integrity?

But... I really can't do it~
I thought that the filming of "Celebrating More Than Years" had finished... at least I could spare some time...

Now it seems that there is no extra time...

I took the itinerary and looked at it...

Oh, there is a bug. He could have met Xin Shuang, then gone to Hengdian, and then went to Shanghai to join the crew of "Go Go Squid!"

The important thing about time is management!
Chen Jiadong remembered something and added, "There is another itinerary, which was just notified!"

Shen Liang's face darkened: "What?"

"…The second season of "Tomorrow's Son" has started, and you have to be a guest star…"

“…What’s wrong with you? With “Idol Producer” and “Produce 101” coming out one after another, do you think anyone still cares about “The Coming One”?”

"We can collaborate with Rocket Girls..."

"Rocket Girls?"

“The limited girl group of Produce 101 is called Rocket Girls…”

"…It's useless," Shen Liang waved his hand: "It takes time to accumulate the quantity and quality of trainees. I don't think there will be any fish that slip through the net after two phenomenal talent shows…"

"That can't be helped... We have already done the work of attracting investment."

"...Okay," Shen Liang just complained and then asked, "What day will you go?"

Chen Jiadong looked at the email: "... on the 7th, just in time for one night of recording, and then going to Shanghai the next day..."

"…Row!"

This 'line' is really a grind!

Going to record the show means it’s unlikely that I’ll see Jing Tian.

Then, we arrived in Xiamen, the filming location of the Dove commercial…

He took on the endorsement of Dove - 800 million in half a year!
The heroine of the advertisement is actually Da Tiantian.

"Hey, why are you here?"

“I’m here to shoot a commercial…”

"Dove's advertisement? Are you also a spokesperson?"

"…Is that right?" Jing Tian asked back: "Don't you know?"

"…have no idea."

I really don't know. Shen Liang was extremely busy at that time. He didn't have time to read the endorsement contract carefully. When he knew it was Dove, he signed it directly...

……

There is nothing much to say about the commercial shoot, it was over in half an hour...

He checked the time and saw that there were still three hours left—he had to fly to Guangzhou to support the screening of “Dying to Survive”…

Jing Tian noticed his actions, rolled her eyes, and said, "Let's find a place to chat for a while..."

"…Then let's go to your room?"

"I... was talking about chatting!"

“…I have another schedule later…”

"I have to go back to Hengdian too." Jing Tian was speechless: "Don't think about that all day long!" Okay...

You said so...

They found a nearby restaurant and chatted while eating.

"Has the filming of Celebrating Life of a Nian finished?"

"Um...what about you? Um...what's your name..."

"Swagger..."

"Have you finished filming?"

Jing Tian: "Soon... I'm going to join the crew of "Snowstorm"..."

"Don't tire yourself out!"

"I'm fine. I only have three dramas a year at most..." At this point, Jing Tian glanced at Shen Liang and said, "Is Bai Lu from the crew of "Swagger" your ex-girlfriend?"

"…What?"

"…Bai Lu, Bai Mengyan…"

Shen Liang pretended to understand something: "...Oh, you mean her...Yes, my old friend."

……

In fact, the most important purpose of movie previews is to build word of mouth, and movie effects are the best free advertisements.

Of course, this depends on the creative team and distributors’ understanding of the film itself!
Pre-screening of films with good reputations is conducive to spreading word of mouth and helping the box office...

Those with bad or unstable reputations are just courting disaster and will cause the box office to plummet sooner!
"Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" is a typical example of a movie that failed after being screened. Although the film grossed 1.7 million yuan on the first day of its screening, its reputation after its release was not ideal, with a Douban score of only 4.4 points, and the final box office was fixed at 7.2 million yuan...

"Dying to Survive" is very confident!

A large-scale preview screening has been launched—the number of screenings of Huangdian exceeds that of Animal World…

The box office in the preview stage exceeded that of "Animal World"...

Many fans of Li Yifeng posted: Don’t be prejudiced against actors…

Li Yifeng works really hard!

Damn it, the audience is not a goldfish, and every time they watch a bad movie, their memory will be automatically cleared...

How is prejudice formed? Isn't it because you have already given the audience the psychological hint that your acting is poor and your expression is dull?

Many people criticized "Dying to Survive" for messing up the market...

When Shen Liang was supporting "Dying to Survive", an audience member asked him about the large-scale preview of "Dying to Survive" and how it was disrupting the market.

Xu Zheng replied: "This is the distribution strategy formulated by the distribution company!"

"Let me answer!" Shen Liang took the microphone. "You are lying with your eyes open. The Chinese film market is so big, isn't it enough to accommodate two movies? The Spring Festival set a record of 9 million box office in a single day! What market are you disrupting? No one is watching your movie, why don't you look for the reason from yourself?"

“But…Animal World has a Douban rating of 7 points!”

"so what?"

“…We just want to discuss why the audience doesn’t accept Li Yifeng!”

"Are you his fan?"

"Correct!"

"...I just said 'because the audience has memory!'" After a pause, Shen Liang asked curiously: "Why do you have such low requirements for actors? Just passing is enough? I think it should be treated similarly to other actors with better acting skills! With an investment of more than 200 million yuan, you actually hired an actor whose acting skills are just passing... Tsk tsk..."

"Ahem... Shen Liang meant that we shouldn't attack each other... They are all Chinese films..."

Xu Zheng quickly came out to speak - it doesn't matter if you attack Li Yifeng, but you can't offend Guangguang Media...

Shen Liang also changed his words: "Exactly. Everyone knows that in the current film market, using traffic is just to drive the audience away! Some actors have been working diligently since their debut, just to live up to the name of actor... Some people just perform well, but there are a lot of people praising them... Is it so double-standard? What a pity, the market is fair!"

Just target Li Yifeng...

Guangxian is more than just a production company, they also have Cat's Eye!

Ning Hao at the side said: "Ask something about "Dying to Survive"."

"Shen Liang, what do you think of 'Dying to Survive'?"

"This is a film that records the times. It does everything a film can do well. It faces reality and encourages people to think. Such a work deserves everyone's praise!" After a pause, Shen Liang looked at Wen Muye and said, "Director, please find me for the next movie. I don't charge any money!"
