I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 28 Homemade Drama

Wajijiwa is backed by Tencent, so in addition to variety shows, it will of course also produce dramas!

After all, they have signed so many artists - in addition to Shen Liang, they also have X玖少年团 and a group of artists selected by "Tomorrow's Son"...

Well, a group of idols...

How do idols develop?

There are only two ways: singer or actor...

Being a singer is difficult. Tianyu only has Zhang Jie and Hua Chenyu...

Then be an actor...

So, making a TV series was a natural choice...

We have platform support and artists, so just buy a few IPs and get started!
In fact, Long Danny is not very good at being an artist.

Although she is very good at talent shows, how to create an artist is a mystery to her.

A series of contract termination incidents at Tianyu that year made Long Danny extremely anxious and he also had a bad relationship with his agency director Si Jie...

After the establishment of Wajijiwa, Long Danny had no good ideas on how to help its artists rise to fame and break out of the industry...

X玖少年团, that is, Xiao Zhan and his friends, like Shen Liang, are among the first batch of artists after the establishment of Jijiwa!
When the company was first established, Shen Liang had his own plans and his career as an internet celebrity was booming.

Xiao Zhan and his friends are miserable. Apart from training, they are bored and play games in the company every day. Especially after the success of the "Tomorrow's Son" talent show, Long Danny completely let the previous batch of artists go...

But with so many artists, we must give it a try...

So, the self-produced drama was arranged.

"Please, Class Leader" and "Oh! My Emperor" were both scheduled during this time...

To be honest, the dramas made by Long Danny are just so-so...

Mainly bad dramas and idol dramas.

"Let's Watch Meteor Shower Together", "Runaway Sweetheart", "A Different Kind of Pretty Boy"...

A bunch of eye-catching dramas were created when Long Danny was the president of Tianyu!

"Please, Class Monitor" and "Oh! My Emperor" are both of this kind of thunder drama, as you can tell from the titles.

She has become path dependent.

These dramas...are actually aimed at elementary school students...

If it was broadcast on Hunan TV, it might be suitable, but it would not be right if it was broadcast on Tencent platform or the Internet!

Of course Shen Liang would not choose, so he shook his head decisively: "My film and television contract is with my mother, please let me go!"

"…Are you so resistant? Have you read the script?"

“I saw…”

"You don't like it? You think it's inappropriate?" Long Danny shook his head: "Don't you think about what you can play at your age?"

“…So, I don’t want to be an actor!”

Shen Liang added: "Mr. Long, let me say this from the audience's perspective: online dramas are different from TV dramas. They can be bad, but the logic must be on point. After all, the audience of online dramas is young people... You can ask Tencent's technical department for a list of the age and gender distribution of Tencent users... and investigate the types of dramas that mainstream users like to watch..."

"I'm working on IP dramas that have a fixed audience base..."

Shen Liang didn't want to talk anymore, so he changed the subject: "...Sister Ma, for my MV shoot, Brother Li Wei helped introduce the heroine..."

"I know... and I also arranged for you two to be a couple."

“…Well, do you have any experience you can pass on to me?”

Ma Hao looked at Shen Liang with a complicated expression: "I have no experience, just a warning!"

"warn?"

"Behave yourself... don't act like this..."

"What if?" Shen Liang chuckled, "What if she insists on making a move on me, what should I do?"

"...Try to control yourself...Anyway, don't hurt Ruth..." Shen Liang immediately complained: "What you said, why can't she hurt me?"

Ma Hao rolled his eyes: "Who are you? I don't know you? Hurt you? Is it possible?"

"What if! Maybe she is more powerful than me and turns me into her bootlicker, her backup... makes me love her to the point of going crazy... the kind that I can't help myself..."

"is it possible?"

"I'm just assuming... Even an asteroid could hit the earth, so how could it be impossible for me to be bewitched by a woman?"

"…Anyway, if you two are really together, you must tell me!"

"Don't worry, you are my agent!" Shen Liang nodded, then thought of a question, but it was difficult to say it in front of Long Danny and Mao Buyi...

Ma Hao noticed his expression and asked curiously, "What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Shen Liang glanced at Long Danny and told the truth: "If... we just had sex and didn't fall in love, should I tell you?"

Ma Hao was surprised by this question: "You..."

Shen Liang said seriously: "I am not good at saying no, but at the same time, I also think everyone is free, and I don't want to tie someone down with a relationship... Of course, I don't want to be tied down either!"

Translation: I can sleep with you, but I won’t admit the relationship…

After hearing this, Mao Buyi couldn't stand it anymore and whispered quietly, "You are so shameless!"

Ma Hao looked at Long Danny, and the two of them exchanged glances. The latter said, "...If you want to become famous in the circle, you'd better control yourself..."

"You're still worried about me. I never sleep with random people... I don't even fuck my fans!"

……

The tour of "Tomorrow's Son" will last about six months...

Basically, we hold one show a month, not seven shows a month...

Therefore, Shen Liang should participate in the next few games.

On the one hand, it supports the show, on the other hand, it is also a channel to promote new songs!
Last night, I sang "Summer Soseki", and that night this song was listed on QQ Music as the EP's pre-release song...

Then, it quickly topped the New Songs Chart and entered the top ten of the Hot Songs Chart the next day…

There is not much traffic for releasing songs this month.

Most importantly, it's free and sounds great...

However, these have nothing to do with Shen Liang. Whether or not it makes the charts doesn’t have much impact - there is no stage to promote his songs, so there is no place to promote them even if he wants to!

Shen Liang ran two commercial performances...

80 per show, and includes food, accommodation and transportation!
Please note that 80 for one show, not one song.

Shen Liang basically gets 80 for three songs plus interaction...which is considered the price for a second-tier artist.

Top-tier singers basically earn 80 per song, and some even earn up to 100 million.

Shen Liang actually has quite a lot of commercial performance opportunities...

He is an artist who has hit songs and is very popular.

This is also what makes him different from the general traffic idols...

It’s rare to see popular idols go to commercial performances…

In addition to the price reasons, the most important reason is that traffic idols do not have songs that are recognized by the public, so they cannot break out of the circle!

You think they don't want to answer?

The fans also "explained" that the brother's schedule is very full, and there are too many activities to find them...

Complete bullshit!
Except for the top ones, most of the traffic groups are too idle to do anything…

The worst off are those small artists who didn’t make it into a group through talent shows. They are neither high nor low and can’t get any work.

It seems glamorous on the surface, with many fans voting for and collecting data when posting on Weibo, but no commercial performances can be obtained.
