I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 318: Not a Very Good Start (23)

The Pillow Book…

"Three Lives Three Worlds: The Pillow Book" is the sequel to the hit drama "Three Lives Three Worlds: Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". The protagonist is Bai Fengjiu, also known as Rouba...

Yang Mi is a guest star...

This is to tell all the audience that this is the official sequel to "Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". Didn't you see that Bai Qian is here?

Jing Tian took on the role in "Once Upon a Time There Was a Spirit Sword Mountain".

Produced jointly by iQiyi, Tencent Pictures and Star Gravity Media.

The team of Stellar Gravity Media is quite powerful, having produced "Blame You for Being Too Beautiful" and "Cang Lan Jue"...

Oh, and later on they filmed "Seven O'Clock Auspiciousness", which almost ruined their reputation.

However, "Spirit Sword Mountain" is not bad!

As for Yang Mi and Jing Tian…they have always had a good relationship, but I don’t know if Da Tian Tian has ever told Shen Liang about it…

It’s hard to say…

It's not impossible that he might show off if he got drunk.

……

Changsha at the end of February is still cold...

Well, this description is not quite accurate, it should be said that it is still chilly in spring.

Going out for a late-night snack was out of the question, so I found a private room in a restaurant next to the hotel...

I ordered a few dishes at random, mainly to try something new, but I still need to control my diet!

The idol mentioned his next drama, "Jiuzhou·The Pearl Lady"...

He looked at Shen Liang and asked him, "The male lead hasn't been decided yet... do you want to play it?"

"Another ancient puppet?"

"Jiuzhou series, I have read the original novel, "Lady of the Pearl" is not limited to the love affairs of young people, but focuses on the family, the country and the world..."

Before she could finish, Shen Liang asked, "Princess Agents?"

“…Just tell me whether you will accept it or not?”

"I won't take on ancient idols for now..."

Jing Tian interrupted: "You don't shoot costume dramas?"

"Yes... I have several costume dramas waiting to be filmed!" After a pause, he talked about the plot of "The Imperial Coroner" and emphasized: "The focus of this drama is to solve the case... Romance is just an embellishment! There is also a martial arts drama..."

“…Who is the production team?”

"Teacher Bai Yicong produced it, Teacher Lou Jian was the director, and my studio also participated in the investment..."

"Where's the heroine?"

"It's very likely that they'll use a new actor, since I'm already playing the male lead..."

It doesn’t matter who the heroine is!
Anyway, I can fly...

"Why don't you like ancient puppets?"

“…There are too many parts about love, all entangled in the affairs of men and women, and too little description of the country, the world, and the people’s livelihood. To put it bluntly, it is not down-to-earth enough.

The actors play characters that are suspended in a fantasy world. If they don't fit in with reality, they naturally can't perform well. Playing the role of a supreme god for tens of thousands of years all day long, it's natural that the character will float... To be honest, I can't handle it.

I have seen a review that specifically evaluates ancient puppet dramas: If you can’t write about an innocent personality, you have to write about an innocent body; if you can’t create a noble soul, you have to create a noble birth... it’s very boring! ”

"Spirit Sword Mountain... is it an ancient idol drama?"

Jing Tian shook her head: "No, it's quite funny..."

"Idol," Shen Liang asked, "Has your team ever considered letting you change your career?"

"…Yes…but there is no suitable script…"

Shen Liang suggested: "You can find a script about a sister-brother relationship..."

"Are you willing to take it?"

“…If the script is suitable, I have no problem with that!”

"Then I'll ask them to keep an eye on it..."

"It would be better if there was something that focused on the difficulties faced by women over 30 in the workplace... This way it would resonate with people."

Yang Mi took note and complained: "Your requirements are quite high... No wonder they all said you are hard to hire!"

"I'm just being careful about my reputation..."

"The two movies together grossed NT$60 billion, so we really need to be careful about our reputation!" "NT$60 billion?" Xie Yilin couldn't help but say, "Taiwan's total box office is less than NT$60 billion per year!"

"RMB?"

"Taiwan dollars!"

60 billion Taiwan dollars converted into RMB is less than 14 billion!
排不进内地前十——去年，广东、江苏、浙江、四川、上海、BJ、湖北、山东、河南、福建，票房收入分别是87亿元、58亿元、51亿元、38亿元、36亿元、34亿元、28亿元、26亿元、24亿元、20亿元…

Yang Mi suddenly remembered something: "Hey, is there a female character in the second part of The Wandering Earth?"

"Yes...but it's already been decided!"

Yang Mi was surprised: "Who did you choose?"

No news at all...

"Wang Zhi..."

"Why? Did you hold an audition?"

"No need for an audition," Shen Liang said as a matter of course, "She played Liu Peiqiang's wife in the first film... Although there was only one shot, she came here to shoot for three days without receiving a dime in pay. Now that they are going to shoot the prequel, they will definitely continue to look for her!"

"…You're not going to act in the second part?"

"I can't act in this, it's a prequel!"

……

We chatted for more than an hour, basically discussing work...

In the last few minutes, I talked about "Escape Room". Except for Shen Liang, everyone else was a novice...

I guess it still depends on Shen Liang and Huang Minghao to carry the team. Oh, Huang Minghao is an old player.

The next day we officially gathered...

We got on a bus together.

To be honest, we didn’t know each other very well and didn’t dare to talk much.

This wouldn't work. Shen Liang and Yang Mi were the main MCs and they had to set the pace, so they acted as the host and asked everyone about their impressions of each other.

"At first, I had no impression of Huang Minghao... I only knew he was from Lehua. As for Zhang Guowei, I've watched quite a few of his funny videos, he's a very interesting person;"

Huang Minghao continued: "So what's your impression of Sister Yang Mi?"

"…The biggest impression is that she is beautiful and…rich!"

"rich?"

"I used to participate in the "Tomorrow's Son" talent show, and Sister Mi was my mentor. She would take us out to dinner whenever she wanted... a beautiful sister who often treated us to dinner!"

Yang Mi interrupted: "…Is your impression of me so superficial?"

Shen Liang asked in surprise: "Rich but superficial? Then what is your impression of Ma Yun and Ma Hua Teng?"

"...I don't know them...What's your impression of Da Tiantian?"

Jing Tian looked at Shen Liang expectantly. Shen Liang pondered for a moment and answered decisively, "I have money!"

“…Do I have money too?”

"Every time we eat out, you always pay the bill... Isn't that rich enough?"

Xie Yilin couldn't help but ask: "Ah? You let a woman pay for your meal?"

"…Don't you think women are most beautiful when they're paying the bill?"

"I've only heard that men look their best when they're paying the bill!"

Shen Liang said seriously: "...You see, what you said is discriminatory against women...Men can pay the bill, but women can't?"

"So what's your impression of me?"

"Not bad, a very quiet young lady!"

Xie Yilin pointed at his nose: "Me? Quiet?"

"...I mean privately..." Shen Liang smiled: "I have always admired comedians, especially female comedians. Those who can become female comedians are almost all those who give up the advantages of being a woman...You can't be pretty, you can't be sexy, you have to act ugly and funny..."

Yang Mi nodded: "Xie Yilin really has a hard time..."

Shen Liang interrupted her: "Don't feel bad for her. The money she makes from each show is enough for you to make for several years... There are no alternative competitors in the domestic entertainment industry for the time being. She is the only funny female comedian of the younger generation... So, she is also very rich!"

Xie Yilin immediately yelled, "I don't have any money!"

The whole bus burst into laughter...

Huang Minghao remembered something and asked, "Brother Liang, why did you take on "Escape the Room"? "
