I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 270 All depends on Shen Liang (44)

"If you are interested, you can listen to Henan opera "The Three Beatings of the Golden Branch", Huangmei opera "The Legend and the Heroine"... For Yue opera, I recommend "Kong Yiji"... In fact, not every foreigner likes to watch a silent ballet performed on tiptoe. Their situations are similar to those of Chinese opera, which all rely on government support!"

"You can go to B station to have a look. The Trial of Galileo, the traditional Peking Opera Harry Potter and the Eight Gates Might Guy are all quite interesting!"

"Do you like visiting Station B?"

"The traditional Peking Opera Harry Potter?"

"Happiness videos, spoofs..." Shen Liang smiled and said, "Sometimes when I run out of ideas, I watch some funny videos... They're really interesting!"

After thinking for a while, he asked the production team: "Are there piano and suona?"

"What's wrong?"

"Let me show you Kikujiro's first seven days!"

The studio is fully equipped with musical instruments, including piano, but the suona is a bit difficult to play...

But he found it. Shen Liang sat in front of the piano. Yang Di helped him hold the microphone. Shen Liang said, "Everyone should have heard Kikujiro's Summer. It's easy to play it, but it's difficult to play it cleanly... I practiced it before..."

A pleasant piano sound floated up...

The track of "Kikujiro's Summer" is called "Summer", which is lighthearted, bright and happy, making people feel that it is no longer a hot and greasy summer.

Then the suona version came...

Before playing, Shen Liang said: "The king of all instruments is the suona, which either ascends to heaven or worships in the hall;

The thousand-year-old pipa, the ten-thousand-year-old guzheng, the erhu played for a lifetime, the suona played without dispute, the music played, the cloth was covered, the whole village, young and old, waited for the food to be served, some walked away, some were carried, and there was a white cloud behind them, the coffin arrived, the soil was buried, and relatives and friends cried! "

Then... the sound of suona started...

Immediately, everyone shouted: "Oh my god! This is not..."

"Kikujiro's ascension?"

"Ha ha…"

"Mainly when I hear the suona I think of the mourning hall..." Shen Liang wanted to explain...Forget it, this thing can't be explained!
The scene was already filled with laughter...

……

Shen Liang started the conversation, and then Yang Di made a proposal about unemployment. When sharing his experience, he talked about a movie he had starred in.

"Artists have no choice in many cases, they just don't have any work... I've experienced this before, a movie approached me... I could tell it was a bad movie, but I still took it in order to survive."

"What movie?"

"I can't say! But I can tell you the general situation," Yang Di continued, "I opened the script and the first page said 'This film has 863 laughs'... That is, the laughs in each scene are clearly arranged... But no matter how much I feel something is wrong, I have to bite the bullet and act according to these laughs."

"What about the movie?"

“It’s not online. I can’t seem to find the publisher!”

Shen Liang interjected: "In fact, most actors don't see the complete script when they accept the role. At most, they can only see five or ten episodes of the script. This has led to many films starting high and ending low. Not only did the audience feel cheated, but the actors also had no way to complain..."

“Of course, sometimes they also know that there is a high probability that the film will be a bad one, but the investors offer too much…they have no choice but to bite the bullet and take it!”

Jin Xin asked, "What about the movie?"

"It's hard to say about movies. Sometimes the producer, director and your agent are very good at PUA. They will brainwash you and make you think that the play you take will be a big hit... I feel that most actors don't understand the script that well. They are more likely to follow the direction of the director, producer and capital. The few who understand the script can't easily judge a bad movie. After all, a film or TV work is the result of the strength of a team and all links plus luck." "Do the actors know that their acting is bad?"

"It's highly unlikely that they know... No one would think that their acting is bad, their company and fans create that kind of atmosphere for them. When agents go to solicit work, they will brag to the directors about how great their actors are... After hearing that many times, you will naturally believe that you are a genius! Besides, if they knew what acting is, they wouldn't act like that."

"What about you?"

"I work with more mature actors and directors... They will tell me where there are problems. I personally find it difficult to fully commit myself when acting..."

Wang Han interrupted: "Brother Liang's acting skills are OK, and his attitude is very good. I heard from Yi Bo that in the play they were filming, Brother Liang, Xiao Zhan, and Yi Bo formed a group. They would rehearse several times a day, give each other advice, and also ask Teacher Chen Jin to come over for guidance..."

"There's nothing we can do about it. Our performance in that scene is related to the upper limit of what the movie can achieve..."

"Yi Bo also told me that he only filmed that drama for a week, but he felt that he gained more than he had in the past few years combined!"

"It's not that exaggerated. The main thing is that we have accumulated enough experience, and then we collided together, and then the effect was achieved!"

Yang Di interrupted: "Has Brother Liang ever taken on a job he didn't want to do?"

"Yes!" Shen Liang nodded: "I don't want to participate in "The Next Generation of Idols", it was arranged by the agent..."

"Ah? You don't want to participate in "Tomorrow's Son"?"

"I had already debuted at that time. Although I was not famous, the number of listeners of my first EP was still very good, and my live broadcast was also very popular... I felt embarrassed to compete with a bunch of pure amateurs..."

Yang Di chuckled: "And I lost to Mao Buyi..."

“…Don’t sow discord between me and Mao Buyi.”

Liu Wei: "But you became popular again through "The Coming One"..."

"That's the result. I'm still unhappy with the process..."

“Did you have it after you became famous?”

"Yes..." Shen Liang looked at Yang Yunqing and Fu Jing: "I didn't want to go to the "Produce 101" group night as a host that day..."

"You don't want to go?"

"I like watching girl groups dance, but that doesn't mean I like dancing myself...Being a host is so troublesome, the process is so long...and it's a live broadcast...I still doubt where the production team got the courage to ask me to be the host..."

Fu Jing said: "But you performed very well!"

“…performing well is also a result, not a process…”

“Were you not forced to perform in the production?”

Shen Liang thought for a moment, then nodded: "When I first debuted, the company arranged for me to act in a play called "Love Through the Millennium 2: Exchange Under the Moonlight"... That crappy movie almost gave up my idea of ​​becoming an actor... Then they arranged another project for me, but I didn't go!"

"Can I not go?"

"I didn't expect them to give me money at that time. I had already started live streaming and could make six figures a month... I didn't need to sell their face at all!"

"So, you have to be rich..." Wang Han took control of the situation and asked Li Yitong: "...What about Yitong? Is there any unemployment?"

Li Yitong scratched her head: "I'm fine... I still get a lot of attention!"

"Her first drama, Half-Demon Allure, was exclusively broadcast on Mango TV, setting a record for the number of hits for a drama exclusively broadcast on the platform..."
