I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 394 Speech (33)

"My Motherland and I" and "The Climbers" are both tribute films. The former was produced by Fu Ruoqing of Huaxia Film, and the latter was produced by Ren Zhonglun of Shanghai Film Group...

Let’s talk about Lao Fu.

When China Film Corporation was under Han Shanping's rule, Lao Fu and Zhang Qiang were his right-hand men. Zhang Qiang was in charge of the planning department, the TV branch and the marketing branch; Lao Fu was in charge of the China Film Corporation's digital production base and built nearly 50 first-line commercial cinemas, making outstanding contributions to China Film Corporation's cinema and theater chain construction.

Later, there was a major reshuffle of the front line, and Lao Fu went to China Film Studio.

Zhang Qiang just left!

China Film, full name: China Film Distribution Co., Ltd.

It's a publishing company!
Although it can also distribute blockbuster films according to its functions, China Film Group has more power...

China Film does not have the right to decide the specific number of the 34 blockbuster films.

So, Lao Fu was demoted, but he was still capable. He found Huang Jianxin and Chen Kai to create "My Motherland and Me"...

Old Chen is awesome. It was he who suggested the idea for "Founding of a Republic" to Han Shanping: There is only one way to make this kind of project a success, which is to learn from the all-star cast of the "World War II" blockbuster "The Longest Day". You have all the roles played by celebrities, even if they only have one line.

"My People, My Country" is an upgraded version of "The Founding of a Republic", with not only many stars but also many directors.

In fact, on September 9, a movie called "The Final Moment" was released in theaters and earned 20 million yuan at the box office that day. It tells the story of the founding fathers who "rushed to Beijing for the imperial examination" and lived in the Shuangqing Villa in Xiangshan, commanding the remnants of the Kuomintang to cross the river for a decisive battle.

The director of this movie is also Huang Jianxin...

However, compared with other main-theme movies, "Call for Justice" has been strategically abandoned: sandwiched between the summer and National Day schedules, without top-down strategic mobilization, this movie is like a turtle in a jar, and it is difficult to break 100 million at the box office.

——I didn’t spend much money on publicity…

After all, the star lineup, topicality, and commercial operation methods are obviously not as good as "My People, My Country", whose production team belongs to the Chinese national film team.

Oh, why didn’t you mention “The Captain”?
That is a film controlled by Bona.

As for The Climbers, a film produced by Shanghai Film Group...

In addition, Han Shanping, who personally created a new pattern of tribute films, actually has a tribute film this year - "Liberation: The Ultimate Rescue".

Compared with the cast lineup of several other works, the production was not good enough and was finally withdrawn quietly in early December.

It’s not that the world is too cruel, it’s just that the situation is stronger than people.

The biggest star in "Liberation: Final Rescue" is Zhou Yiwei.

The best actors have already been assembled in three other projects.

I still feel a little sad that the movie directed by Han Shanping couldn’t even get a ticket to be shown as a National Day tribute.

……

"My Motherland and I"... Actually, according to his role, Shen Liang is not eligible to attend the premiere ceremony...

After all, he is not the leading actor. In the plot of "Escort", his presence is not even as strong as Zhang Zifeng's. At least the character she played, Lv Xiaoran (in middle school), had a beating scene...

But...who made Shen Liang the most popular!

Among the more than 100 actors and actresses in "My Country, My Parents", no one is more famous than him, except Wu Jing - Wu Jing also made a cameo appearance.

Wu Jing didn’t need to come, because Shen Liang had to sing “Wanjiang” and at the end he had to lead the singing of “My Motherland and I”…

That’s right, it’s the promotional song of “My Motherland and I”, a re-interpretation of “My Motherland and I” by Shen Liang.

CCTV gave Shen Liang a lot of face and even gave him three minutes for a solo speech!

Of course, I was also moved by his speech.

"When I read history books before, what I hated most was the 1840-year period starting from the Opium War in 109!"

"But this period of history is recorded in the most detail. That period of history when the Chinese nation was dependent on others is like a stain that can never be erased, smeared on this land."

“Sometimes I complain, why is it recorded in such detail?
Later I figured it out. We must be clear about a premise. The path that the Chinese people have chosen today is the result of 109 years of social experimentation, 109 years of failure, 109 years of darkness, and the sacrifice of five generations of people. During this period, we have tried almost all systems before making this choice. "

“It is history that has chosen our party, chosen Marxism, chosen the socialist path, and chosen New China!”

"In 1949, the People's Republic of China was founded. Until now, years have passed and great changes have taken place. The national rejuvenation has created glory!"

Then a group of people came back on stage, and Shen Liang began: "My motherland and I cannot be separated for a moment~ Wherever I go, a song of praise will flow~"

... "Brother Bo, Brother Zhang Yi... Director Chen..."

Shen Liang greeted a group of people before finding his father.

"That's very well said. Did you write the lyrics yourself?"

"Um…"

Getting ready to go home together...

Father Shen was curious: "Aren't you going to promote it?"

“…I’m just a minor character, why should I promote myself?”

"Then let's go home..."

"Okay," Shen Liang took off his coat, stuffed it into his hand, and asked, "Where's my mom?"

"She's probably cooking at home."

Shen Liang was shocked: "...cooking by yourself?"

"Command your Aunt Chen..."

"That's good."

Shen Liang breathed a sigh of relief. Mother Shen was an amazing person. Even when cooking according to a recipe, she could still make mistakes!
Thanks to Aunt Chen, their old nanny...

"When you get home, cook a dish yourself!"

“…Miss your son’s craft?”

"A bit..."

"No problem... I'll take a call."

As soon as he arrived at the parking lot, Shen Liang received a call from Chen Jiadong.

He asked if he wanted to cooperate with the crew of "My Motherland and Me" to promote...

"Don't you know if I have time?"

“…But this is what Director Chen Kai meant…”

Shen Liang said unhappily: "Who cares? Tell him I'm busy!"

“…Then remember to start a live broadcast tonight…”

"Well, I remember..."

"So should we boost sales?"

Oh, and his EP is released today.

"What the hell... Two for each account, what can I use to recharge? Just issue it normally... Anything else?"

"Guangguang said that director Zhang Yi's new film is a spy film, and asked if we are interested in playing a role!"

If it’s a spy movie, it must be “On the Cliff”…

But Shen Liang is too old to play the leading role...

However, being able to star in Zhang Yimou's movie was also a good experience for him.

So Shen Liang asked: "...Do we have a schedule?"

“…The schedule can be adjusted. They will start filming at the end of December…”

Shen Liang calculated the time, then shook his head: "Forget it, let's do it next time!"

“…That’s Zhang Yimou!”

"Lao Mouzi has a strong desire to create in recent years. Don't worry, there will definitely be opportunities for cooperation..."
