I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 418 Respond (33)

The so-called status means how much money the capital is willing to invest in a project when you get it!
Now, if Shen Liang is optimistic about a project and plays the role himself, he can easily raise less than 500 million yuan in investment...

Who else can do it?

Not to mention the new generation, even if we count the veteran stars, except Jackie Chan and Wu Jing, no one else dares to say this.

Let’s put it this way, in “The Crowd”, Rao Xiaozhi specifically asked Shen Liang about his opinion on Liu Dehua…

Once Shen Liang expresses his dislike, Liu Dehua will have to get out!
Shen Liang doesn't care...

Andy Lau previously starred in "Fulltime Killer" and his performance was pretty good.

And...Liu Dehua is indeed Rao Xiaozhi's idol.

But many passers-by think that Shen Liang has never even been a No. 1, and his only high-end endorsement is GUCCI, and he even sells goods live...

No class at all!

Look at Wu Kaikai in the past, Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Burberry, L'Oréal Men; car brand Porsche...

A row of high-end endorsements...

In addition, in terms of fashion magazines: the top five men's magazines and the top five women's magazines are grand slam players.

In comparison, Shen Liang has appeared on VOGUE, and his only high-end endorsement is GUCCI’s global endorsement…

The key is that he has endorsed White Elephant instant noodles, Yumeijing, Jeanswest, and recently announced Yuanqi Forest...

Car endorsement... He endorsed BYD Song...

It's definitely a Porsche!

The level of quality was immediately lowered.

……

"Don't worry about ranking or status, it's meaningless to me... When I take on a project, the first thing I consider is whether the script is interesting and whether the audience will like it... Then I consider my personal role..."

In the live broadcast room, Shen Liang responded to the status...

“As for my status… I can only say that I am in a very high position now and can choose projects at will.

Movie box office revenue is real money, it is simple and clear, and it is very easy to collect data.

Moreover, it is very easy to distinguish which actor, director or special effects the audience comes to watch the movie for.

An actor may have multiple works, and it is easy to draw conclusions by controlling for variables and analyzing them.

It’s not that movie box office can’t be faked, but the cost is too high and it’s illegal if it’s not done right. Moreover, once a negative label is placed in the minds of moviegoers, it’s very difficult to undo it.”

"When I choose a project, it's usually the one I like. I like Joy of Life very much, and I also like The Imperial Coroner, including The Wind Chaser, Lotus Tower, and The Devil King..."

"Yes, 'The Demon Lord' is an ancient idol drama!" "I don't have a contempt chain. All literary and artistic works serve the audience. If the audience says it's good, then it's really good! If the audience doesn't like it, no matter how hard you try, it won't work!"

After saying this, Shen Liang talked about the Golden Rooster Awards.

"In fact, in the field of literature and art, whether in terms of level or market strength, the mainland has surpassed Hong Kong and Taiwan by a lot, but the mainland has always ceded a large part of the right to speak to Hong Kong and Taiwan. In the hearts of the general public, there is still a strong impression of Hong Kong and Taiwan, music, TV series, variety shows, and especially movies, although you can't even find the basis for these impressions. This is actually the result of the transfer of discourse power!

We think that the Golden Horse Awards are given because of the value of the participating films, but in fact, as long as the mainland is willing, we can replicate an award that is more valuable and more convincing than the Golden Horse Awards in a short period of time.

This confidence comes from two things that the other side of the strait completely lacks - market and works.

As a regional award, the host city of the Golden Horse Awards actually basically does not provide any works. Every year, the Golden Horse Awards forces a few Taiwanese films to win some awards just to save face for themselves.

Taiwan, as a producer or market, is a backward place, both in the film industry and in film art, and will continue to lag behind.”

"You can look at the statistics. Including Hollywood movies, the total annual box office converted into RMB is less than 20 billion. It's not even half the level of The Wandering Earth, and most of the share is still in Western movies."

“To give you a simple example, would you care about the Argentine Film Festival? Would you pay attention to the Bolivian Film Festival?
No, because any influential award must be based on the market and works in its own region.

The Golden Horse Awards is an award that was forcibly propped up by the mainland. As long as the mainland government and the public stop doing anything to prop it up, the Golden Horse Awards will immediately become a third-rate award in a small place, just like the Golden Melody Awards and the Golden Bell Awards, a third-rate regional award!"

"Taiwan director Li Xing also said that 'the Golden Rooster cannot compete with the Golden Horse'... It's almost as funny as Murong Fu's declaration of emperorship in the suburbs of Dali. All that's left is the last helpless groan of a down-and-out prince who can't help but see the flowers fall."

“…If the Golden Rooster Awards is run well, it will become the largest Chinese film award!”

Then Shen Liang talked about the Best Supporting Actor.

"This is really unexpected. The core of Sunshine is Director Chen and Xiao Zhan... My role is actually quite annoying. The reason why I won the award is that, on the one hand, I applied for the supporting role in Sunshine, which means that my role is considered the main role, but I applied for the supporting role award; on the other hand, it is also because the judges encourage newcomers..."

"There is another possibility. With the blessing of the two movies "The Wandering Earth" and "The Devil", the judges felt that I should be given some honor, so they gave me the Best Supporting Actor award!"

"I don't feel unworthy of it. I personally feel that I have done my best in "A Sun"! It's actually not bad..."

“The biggest feature of my acting is that it is natural and lifelike…but I am not good at the kind of scenes with strong emotional outbursts…that kind of extroverted scenes!
In "Joy of Life", Fan Xian's emotional outburst is not particularly exaggerated. What I mean by exaggerated is the kind of loud quarrels... the kind with particularly intense dramatic conflicts!"

"There is no such scene in "A Sun". Even in the most emotional quarrel, Xiaolong questioned Ah He, 'We both have machetes, and you stole a motorcycle. Now you tell me that you just wanted to scare him?' Ah He was more ashamed and guilty..."

"Because I am a rational person and I am not used to yelling at people..."

"Well, I took on a movie called "The Man Who Planted Stars", which was filmed after "The Wrath of Time". That one required a lot of big emotions...it was a challenge!"

After checking the time, it was 12:6 pm, and the live broadcast was about to end. Shen Liang then remembered that there was no promotion for "Love Like a Bouquet", and immediately changed the subject: "By the way, I'm hungry, let me tell you something, the movie "Love Like a Bouquet" starring me will be advanced by half a month and will be released on December th..."

“…Yes, it’s the one starring Li Yitong!”

“I don’t know what the distributor is thinking. Maybe they think Joy of Life is a big hit… so if they release it now, they can save some publicity money?”

Then a sentence floated in the barrage: ...Li Yitong's two dramas are also being broadcast...

"Really? I didn't notice..."
