I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 320 Make up lessons? (14)

"For me, this episode is pretty easy. The puzzles are basically like "play a small game", "remember a long list of things and then find a panel to press", "find a prop in a corner after almost tearing down the room", etc.
And basically all levels are about finding keys and passwords.

This kind of secret room might have been fine 8 years ago, but now it’s 2019…”

Yang Mi was surprised: "You think it's easy?"

"It's still a bit too simple... If you have time and go back to BJ, I'll take you to a secret room. There's a book called "And Then There Were None" on Storm Island. I played it three times. It's really interesting!"

Yang Mi casually said, "Three times? So, you went there with three different girls?"

"..." Shen Liang paused for a moment, then said: "...I went there alone...I usually don't team up with acquaintances when playing in escape rooms..."

"why?"

"I don't want people I know to see my ugly appearance..."

"…So, you are afraid of NPCs too?"

"Of course I am scared. When you are thinking with all your heart and soul, and the space is small and quiet, it is easy to be frightened by sudden noises."

The program team decisively took note...

Shen Liang's expression changed slightly: "Don't make random arrangements!"

Director He Shu looked up at him and said, "…Don't worry, we will definitely give you a script that will amaze you!"

“…Don’t be too scary…I’d be really scared.”

"Do not worry!"

……

After the review, a group of people had a dinner together...

Jing Tian asked Shen Liang about his schedule, and the latter said, "I'm going to Huzhou Film and Television City to join the crew of "Awakening Age"... What about you?"

"Awakening Age...you play a supporting role?"

"I've already agreed, I'm definitely going, and this kind of drama doesn't have protagonists or supporting roles, nor does it have rankings or anything like that..."

After thinking for a while, Shen Liang added: "The Awakening Age... can be seen as a TV version of The Founding of the Party, showing the magnificent historical picture scroll from the New Culture Movement, the May Fourth Movement to the founding of our party, telling the social customs and various life situations in the Awakening Age... The character I play is called Chen Yannian, the eldest son of Mr. Zhongfu!"

“…I heard from them that you didn’t receive any salary for taking this role?”

"Anyway, the crew doesn't have much money. I just happen to like the script of "Awakening Age" and I really want to work with the creative team on a play... Most importantly, I don't need that money!"

The production crew of "Awakening Age" showed the greatest sincerity - 200 million in salary!
Shen Liang...really doesn't think highly of this pay. The Moutai stocks he bought, not to mention the daily earnings, the monthly earnings are more than 200 million.

The crew simply donated their pay to the Longhua Martyrs Memorial Hall, which is actually the Martyrs Cemetery. Most of the martyrs recorded in the Longhua Martyrs Memorial Hall were in their twenties or thirties... Yannian, Qiao Nian, Zhao Shiyan, and the 24 Longhua martyrs...

“…You want to transform?”

"Yes!" Shen Liang nodded: "I am not very interested in romance dramas anyway. I prefer military dramas and dramas that express patriotism..."

"So 'Want to See You' isn't a romance drama?"

"…Not really, it's a time-travel drama…the focus is on redemption…"

Yang Mi was a little embarrassed: "...I haven't read the script..."

"Normal," Shen Liang waved his hand: "Even if you saw it, your team wouldn't let you take it!"

"why?"

"Everyone knows that as long as you accept a role, your company will definitely insert newcomers, which makes it difficult for external partners. Also, when you shoot your own drama, your schedule is too full, so you don't have time to contact external partners... Didn't your fans boycott Jiaxing's self-made products some time ago?"

Yang Mi shook her head: "...The company is also very difficult... Many times..."

Jing Tian suddenly interrupted: "...Do you know Nothing But Thirty?"

"…Know!"

"Tong Yali quit the show, and now they are looking for me... I'm still considering..."

The drama "Nothing But Thirty" is actually a good resource. It is a new drama created by the "Mr. Good" team - directed by Zhang Xiaobo and written by Zhang Yingji.

The reason why Tong Yali quit the show was mainly because her character caused fans to leave...

Then I turned around and took over "Perfect Relationship"...

Shen Liang immediately said: "Take it... What's there to consider?" "... I'm a little worried..."

"What are you afraid of?"

"...This Gu Jia...is a character in the film. The main plot is that when faced with a family crisis, she chooses to face it bravely and uses her own way to get her husband back to the family and mend the rift..."

Shen Liang said casually: "Then let the screenwriter change the ending... Just divorce. I tell you, Zhang Xiaobo's team is quite reliable."

"…Okay, I'll go back and talk to them."

Yang Mi was a little surprised and couldn't help asking, "Do you believe him so much?"

"He knows a lot..." Jing Tian answered seriously: "Besides, there is no need for him to cheat me!"

Shen Liang boasted casually: "…I was the one who recommended her to take on "Swagger"!"

"Hmm..." Jing Tian nodded: "You just said that Zhang Xiaobo's team is reliable, how about you also play a role?"

“…I don’t necessarily have the time.”

"Just a cameo appearance, just as a friendly performance!"

Shen Liang thought about it for a while, and the Aquaman in Nothing But Thirty was pretty good, so he nodded: "Okay..."

……

"The Legend of Chu Qiao" has a good reputation and the data is not bad either!
The Mango Weekly Drama's first broadcast had a viewership rating of 0.882%, and has since remained stable between 0.8% and 1.2%.

It ranked first in ratings on both networks and was the weekly drama ratings champion in the first quarter.

Judging from the popularity value of iQiyi, "The Legend of Hao Lan" has long "dominated" the top 3 of iQiyi drama popularity values, and has been ranked first in popularity many times.

It can be said that it has achieved great success in both ratings and traffic.

There are soft articles like "The Legend of Chu Qiao goes viral, heroine-led dramas enter the 2.0 era" and "Is the era of Da Tiantian coming?" everywhere...

Specifically speaking of Da Tiantian, after "Swagger", she officially announced 6 endorsements.

Well, it's a pity that Shen Liang didn't have the chance to be alone with Da Tiantian...

It felt like Yang Mi was deliberately pestering her...and actually rested in her room.

No, don’t you have a room of your own?
Do you want to have... a threesome?

Shen Liang...had to go back to his room alone.

Then I calculated my income and expenditure last year...

Just calculate how much money you made!

The profit share from the album "Shen Liang" has arrived - 1.2 million, mainly after deducting the profit share with the company.

The album has been free – for six months.

"Man Is" is very popular recently, it is the promotional song of "The Wandering Earth"!
Last year, the biggest revenue came from the profit sharing of “Nobody” - 1.4 million after tax.

Then there is the revenue of "Want to See You", which is close to 1.8 million yuan - the purchase price of the Tencent platform is million yuan. In addition, the purchases of the two TV stations...

The salary for "Squid Stew" is 6584 million after tax;
"Time Travel" is approaching 1400 million...

The remuneration for participating in several variety shows is close to 2800 million!
There is no income from "Sunny Days" and "The Evil Dead" for the time being, so they are considered expenses...

In addition, there are public relations expenses, studio staff salaries, and necessary favors expenses...

Last year's revenue was at least over 2.5 million!
Shen Liang himself was shocked by this calculation - this did not include the revenue of "The Wandering Earth", which started at at least 200 million yuan.

No wonder a bunch of second-generation stars and ugly sons of capitalists have entered the circle. Damn, it’s too easy to make money in this circle!
I opened my computer and looked at the budget of "Underground Fire" - 2.8 million.

He can buy it all by himself!
Of course, this is impossible. China Film Group, Penguin Pictures, Guo Fan Pictures, and Lu Yang's Cool Whale Pictures all need to be connected to Maoyan - you need to have an online ticket purchase portal...

After careful calculation, he would be lucky if he could retain 20% of the investment rights - his salary is 100 million + 10% of the box office revenue!
That’s 30 points, not bad…

There is also a movie called "A Bouquet of Love". The heroine has to be a better choice and her age should be close to mine, at least she has to be born in the 90s.

Just as I was thinking about it, my phone vibrated and Jing Tian sent me a message: "Come to room xx..."

Shen Liang almost replied "...right away!", and then his phone vibrated again. It was a message from his idol...
