I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 248 Promotional Movie (44)

During the filming of "Honey Stewed Squid", Shen Liang directly increased the frequency of his live broadcasts...

Because it is boring!

Actually, he got along well with the entire crew, but...

how to say…

On the one hand, he rarely socializes, and on the other hand, he is too lazy to deal with these people...

They are all a bunch of fools!
Well, he's pretty realistic...

It’s not like there weren’t any beauties in the crew, but he had no interest in that…

The shooting period of "Squidward Dungeon" was 70 days, with at least ten hours of shooting every day. It was such a heavy workload, coupled with the scorching heat.

After work every day, I just want to go back to my room and rest.

If you have the energy, go into the live room and chat with the brothers.

We talked about some hot topics, and the most popular one recently was of course "Love Cemetery" - the good "Love Apartment" movie turned into "Love Apartment" + "Grave Robbers' Chronicles"...

Netizens gave good reviews: In the past, movies were divided into action movies, comedy movies, science fiction movies, art movies, ethics movies, etc. "Love Apartment" created another milestone in the history of movies - scam movies.

In comparison: "Chasing Dreams in Entertainment Industry" is at least an original bad movie that is honest, consistent, and highly anticipated by the public!

Shen Liang looked at the brothers in the live broadcast room complaining, smiled, and said:
"You all missed the point. The scariest thing is that all the actors, production staff and authorities chose to remain silent about this fraud from the beginning to the end... They knew it was a tomb-robbing movie, but they still didn't say anything and let the crew make money..."

"I think Yuan Hong wants to curse. He is the main actor, but his name is not on the poster or even in the cast list!"

“…very shameful behavior…”

"Huang Bo's "A Good Show" is not bad, at least it exudes sincerity. Another movie "Take My Brother Away" is also OK... In another week, the movie "Nobody" that I invested in will start to be screened..."

"Yes, that movie whose script was very well written, but whose character image was so different from me..."

"You'll know when you see it, it's definitely worth the money!"

"…I sang the promotional song, it's called "Nobody"…I'll sing it once…"

……

"Click, pass!"

In the crew of "Honey Stewed Squid", director Li Qingrong took off her headphones, wiped her sweat, and said, "Everyone take a break!"

Oh, the original director was Qu Youning, who directed "It Started with a Kiss", but he was replaced by Shen Liang - a matter of stance!
Since Shen Liang has joined "Honey Stewed Squid", it is impossible for the things in the original time and space to happen again...

"It's so hot...quick, ice!"

Shen Liang went straight back to his RV, took the ice cubes handed to him by Chen Jiadong, put them on his face, and then blew them in front of the electric fan for a while, and finally he felt a little cool.

The temperature in Shanghai in August is insane!

The most feared thing when filming is being too hot or too cold. It's the people who are hot and the equipment that is cold. If either of them goes wrong, the progress will be delayed.

The problem is that Shen Liang doesn't have time, so he can only shoot in the hot sun...

He is resting on a chair with a small fan next to him...

The RV's air conditioning was also on.

"Brother Liang, Huoxiang Zhengqi Water!"

“…Drink again?”

"No other way, to prevent heat stroke..."

"Fine…"

He took the cup of water, drank it all, turned around and asked Chen Jiadong: "What are we eating later?"

“Vegetable salad...and seafood...”

“…I’m too lazy to go over there, please bring it to me!”

"Um…"

Chen Jiadong went to the restaurant to get food, and then Yang Zi came over: "It's quite cool here..." "Sister, does the RV have air conditioning?"

“…I heard you want to take three days off?”

"Hmm..." Shen Liang nodded and explained, "I can't help it. The movie I invested in is about to be released, so I have to make some promotional trips..."

"I just asked for leave, and you want to ask for leave again!"

“…What a coincidence…”

Yang Zi also took a leave of absence some time ago. She went to promote "Ashes of Love"...

The drama "Ashes of Love" not only achieved great success in terms of ratings and word of mouth, but Yang Zi also reached the peak of her acting career due to the popularity of the drama.

This drama established Yang Zi's status as a first-line actress. Not only her, but also Deng Lun and Luo Yunxi became famous thanks to this drama...

By the way, I heard that Guan Xiaotong was originally scheduled to play the female lead in this drama, but she was busy filming "Sweet Strike" and she was dissatisfied with Deng Lun's lack of popularity, so she quit the role...

All I can say is that the fire depends on luck!
"Hey, what's the name of the movie you invested in?"

"Nobody's Name is a story about a nobody, and the script is really great... After I read it, although I didn't act in it, I couldn't bear to see the project fail, so I invested half of it and introduced Beijing Literature to him..."

"directed by?"

"Rao Xiaozhi, the director of Hello, Madman... What's wrong? Are you interested in movies?"

Yang Zi directly asked back: "Who doesn't want to act in a movie?"

"I don't believe there's no movie for you."

"Yes, there is... but the script is not very good..."

"For example, 'A Paper Engagement'?"

Yang Zi smiled and didn't answer...

In fact, this summer, there is a movie called "A Paper Engagement" starring Yang Zi, directed by Zhang Hui, the current dean of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy...

This project is to promote her new wife Liu Xiyang.

It should be last year, Zhang Hui, who was born in 69, divorced, and regardless of the nearly 30-year age difference and the teacher-student relationship, he married Liu Xiyang, a female student of the class of 2010, born in 93...

This movie brought in Yang Zi, Zhang Yishan, and Guan Xiaotong as supporting roles...and the heroine is of course his lovely wife Liu Xiyang!
The investor is Youth Film Studio, in which Beijing Film Academy holds 100% of the shares.

In other words, Zhang Hui used public funds to give his wife a big gift...

A sanctimonious middle-aged man who is bold and high-profile...

Even if two people are in love with each other, it is indeed shameless to use state-owned assets to make a film for their own entertainment and romance!

The most important thing is that the distributor of this crappy movie is Zhang Hui’s own company, which paid a lot of publicity and promotion fees.

The later stage was done by Liu Xiyang's company, who paid another wave of later stage fees.

So it doesn’t matter what the box office does, the couple has already got the money!

Not only that, the film premiered at the Houston International Film Festival, went to the Montreal World Film Festival, and had its name on the Golden Rooster Awards...

In addition, Liu Xiyang won the Best Actress Award at the 3rd Italian Chinese Film Festival for her role in A Paper Marriage—the organizer of this film festival is Beijing Film Academy…

Shen Liang thought of this, so he asked, "Are all the teachers at Beijing Film Academy so blatant?"

“…I don’t understand what you are saying!”

"Forget it..." Shen Liang was too lazy to care about this matter. Just as Chen Jiadong opened the car door, he changed the subject: "Do you eat vegetable salad?"

Yang Zi was surprised: "...You're going to eat this?"

"I have to maintain my figure..." Shen Liang took the vegetable salad and prepared to eat it with a fork: "You don't want to eat?"

"…You eat first, I'll eat later…By the way, I'll help you promote your movie on Weibo…What's it called?"

"'Nobody'... Thank you."
