I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 383: Short of Money (13)

Shen Liang is preparing to make a comedy...

"The Killer Is Not Very Calm"...is quite suitable for Wei Daxun.

His miserable look is perfect for this kind of role!
If that doesn't work, you can also watch "I Have a Friend" or "Happy City"...

Costume comedy track.

Shen Liang...is not very suitable for comedy, he is too handsome, and his character has a high IQ, he can't act stupid.

Back to the interview, Yi Li actually asked about his secret to choosing scripts.

"There's no secret. When I read a script, I first have to understand the story logic, and then the character logic. As long as these are clear, the script won't be bad!"

"for example?"

"For example, many idol dramas approached me. I read the scripts and couldn't find the logic for the hero to fall in love with the heroine. Why would the hero only love the heroine? Because she's beautiful and passionate? Because she's optimistic and generous... Actually, it's not quite right. The hero in general idol dramas is mature and rational, well-informed, and may be moved but not fall in love... This logic is wrong, I can't act it, so I won't accept it!"

"What if the other party throws money at you?"

"Spend money? How much can you give? To be honest, how many people in the circle are richer than me? If I don't want to take it, I won't take it. The show can't fail on me!"

Yi Li nodded: "So, "The Imperial Coroner" is good?"

"Well, the plot is very rigorous... and the characters also change..."

Yi Li suddenly remembered something and interrupted him: "Do you think your performance in "Knowing or Not" was successful?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "It's very different from what I imagined... Qi Heng's functionality is too strong, and he became a complete contrast character in the end... Although the ending is not bad..."

"You have appeared in so many movies and TV series. Do you have a favorite role?"

"Fan Xian in "Celebrating Yu Nian"..."

"Joy of Life... hasn't been aired yet, right?"

Shen Liang nodded: "It should be broadcast in November..."

……

In fact, it is difficult to stand out in this format of interview!
No one will reveal their true thoughts in front of the camera. Even if they are telling the truth, it is just to establish their character.

Times have changed, the media environment has changed, and the track for talk shows has gradually shrunk and is almost closed.

The same is true for Standpoint...

Interviewing celebrities is the most thankless job!

Because information can be intercepted everywhere on the Internet, especially information about celebrities’ lives and gossip.

Who will watch your show specifically?

Yi Li asked a lot of questions, but none of them made any sense...

There were only two topics, which were quite interesting. The first was gossip: "Do you pay attention to your own gossip?"

“Not really…but my team will tell me as soon as possible.”

"I'm curious. You had so many relationships before your debut. Did you abstain from sex after entering the industry?"

"Not really... I just don't have time for love..."

Then she mentioned the gay drama...

“…The Untamed is so popular, have you ever thought about starring in a gay drama?”

Shen Liang shook his head: "…There is no plan in this regard for the time being."

"Don't you like this type?"

“…If I had a choice, I wouldn’t touch this kind of subject matter!”

"So what do you think of the actors who starred in gay dramas?"

"There's nothing much to comment on. I don't watch them, but I do have some opinions on the gay drama track."

"What do you think?"

“Don’t take a momentary fluke and leniency as the relaxation of policies, and don’t follow the trend, otherwise, you will die without knowing how! There are so many risk-free topics to explore, why do you have to challenge the bottom line of policies? One exception can slip through the strict policy net, which does not mean that every project is so lucky. Only the majority will die in obscurity!”…

"Addicted" cost 500 million dollars to make, but it was profitable relying on DVDs and peripheral products. In addition, it made the two leading actors famous!

Even though the policy is not very supportive, there are still a lot of production companies joining the race!

According to incomplete statistics, among the 2014 BL projects aired since 30, the leading actors of the stand-out "Addicted", "Soul of the Guardian" and "The Untamed" were all unknown before these projects.

Zhu Yilong got the opportunity to star in "Guardian" because the original actor "ran away" at the last minute.

Wang Yibo’s role as Lan Wangji is just to complete the task assigned by Lehua!
Let’s put it this way, after The Untamed, the three major platforms including many veteran production companies have all entered the gay adaptation market!

"Silent Reading", "Additional Legacy", "Wanderers of the End of the World", "Earth Online", "Wolves Walk in Pairs", "Heaven Official's Blessing", "SPL", "Zhang Gong's Case", "Kaleidoscope of Death"...

Dangai 101!

During the audition, it was very exaggerated, the company brought the artists together.

Among these competitors, there are many actors who have played the third or fourth male roles in TV series, and their Weibo fans range from several million to tens of millions.

For producers, the most important thing is who holds the artist’s agency contract!
According to many producers, “It’s embarrassing. The artists we select often have problems with their management contracts. We dare not work with such artists.”

The "problem" here refers to the fact that most artists have already signed management contracts.

The money that Dangai projects earn from selling film and television copyrights is far less than the commercial cooperation income brought by making the artists famous!
"It's better to sign an amateur than a mature actor", otherwise, if he becomes famous, it has nothing to do with me!

Well, the Dangai genre is a bit like the popular IP dramas back then...

The adaptation rights of many BL novels have been sold for more than 10 million!
Tsk tsk…

Why is this concept so popular?
Because... there is a lack of money. The entire industry needs money now!
The story of big IP + young idols is no longer relevant, let’s change to the story of the rise of the Chinese idol industry and the industrialization of the film industry…

But the incident with Xiaopang last year caused most of the hot money to choose to leave the market - I don’t want to play anymore!
Danmei adaptations are a huge hit - sponsors, domestic entertainment can really be saved, please give us a little more!

It’s not that complicated, that’s the situation.

……

"I feel like you can come several more times!"

“…Although it’s true, I don’t want to do that!”

After the art exchange, Shen Liang lay on the bed while Meng Ziyi stepped on his back...

The effect is just so-so, after all, it’s not professional!

Meng Ziyi got off his back and suggested, "How about I call Wang Churan over?"

"…Why did you call me here? Do you want to help me push my back?"

"I want to see her roll her eyes!"

"…What are you thinking about all day long?" Shen Liang turned over and pulled her over: "Don't think about it, I'm very tired! Go to sleep!"

"You go to sleep first, I still need to monitor my reputation!"

As she spoke, she bent down and took out her cell phone from the pile of clothes on the ground...

When Shen Liang saw her holding a cell phone, he subconsciously said, "No taking pictures!"

"You're scared?"

“…A little bit. I’m very sensitive to this stuff!”

After all, the big photography exhibition has ruined too many people.

By the way, if Shen Liang had the habit of taking photos, the domestic entertainment industry would be at least half ruined!
“…You want to take a picture, but I won’t let you.”

Meng Ziyi looked disdainful, then clicked on Weibo...

Two minutes later, she pushed Shen Liang, wanting to share the melon she had just eaten, and then... was surprised to find that Shen Liang had fallen into a deep sleep.

"Sleep so quickly!"

She muttered something, and then she felt a strong desire to share, so she just started chatting with Wang Churan.
