I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 447 I'm free! (23)

Zhen Zidan's acting level is just so-so...

Zhang Chongbang’s character is very superficial, continuing the tradition of upright police in Hong Kong films: he has strong case-handling ability and a strong sense of justice, but is not good at handling interpersonal relationships. Because he is too upright, he has offended many superiors and colleagues.

There is nothing wrong with that, but Zhang Chongbang himself enforced the law violently, disobeyed orders from his superiors many times, and chased down criminals to kill them - he held Meng Guitou under water and forced him to hand over the person.

Then, when the judge accused Qiu Gangao, he nodded and admitted it!
This does make me feel like this character is a bit double standard...

You can be violent, but others can't?
Actually, Hong Kong police and gangster films cannot be analyzed in detail...

In fact, Zhen Zidan is not very suitable for Zhang Chongbang. Who is the most suitable?

Of course it’s 40-year-old Jackie Chan!
It’s a pity that Jackie Chan is already over 60 and looks very old…

When it comes to Hong Kong action movies, the only one who can carry the banner is Donnie Yen!
Moreover, he would not agree to play opposite Shen Liang if the role was not important enough.

"What do you think is wrong with my acting?"

"Brother Donnie... I think your expression is too stiff. This is the first time Zhang Chongbang has met Qiu Gangao, and there is no evidence to prove that he is the murderer... He should feel a little guilty towards Qiu Gangao!"

"Guilt?"

"After all, Ao follows Zhang Chongbang, and he treats him as a brother!"

Hearing this, Zhen Zidan looked at Chen Musheng...

Chen Musheng nodded: "They were indeed brothers at the beginning..."

Shen Liang continued, "In fact, from a procedural point of view, it doesn't matter whether Zhang Chongbang testifies or not, because based on the confessions of Mr. Huo and the officer, Ao and his men still committed lynching and violated police rules, so they are likely to go to jail. However, he was not crushed by the last straw of the leader, and he still believed that there is love and brotherhood in the world..."

"In fact, Ao's heart knot ultimately comes down to 'Everyone in this world can disbelieve me, but you can't disbelieve me'. They are both good police officers who uphold justice. When they go on a mission together, if the prince's confession deviates from his expectations, it would be a betrayal!"

Zhen Zidan shook his head: "But if Zhang Chongbang doesn't tell the truth, then he is committing perjury!"

Shen Liang shrugged: "...But the testimony of the state leader has had a great impact on Ao's psychology. It made Ao firmly believe that "you guys say one thing and do another". Colleagues, superiors, and even fiancées cannot be trusted. Even brothers may not be trusted. If they do something wrong, they will be punished..."

At this point, he looked at Chen Musheng: "…So, we must film the scene where Ao kills Qing, otherwise, the public will definitely be biased towards Ao."

"Well, Ao is an antisocial personality."

……

I have a question, if Zhen Zidan's character in "Raging Fire" chases the criminal, would the fate of the two people be swapped?

No, because Zhang Chongbang has a bottom line!

The state leader violated the rules because the lives of his wife and children were in danger.

Why did Ao kill people in the first place? It was because his superior told him: If this thing fails, you and I will have no hope of promotion.

Qiu Gangao is too utilitarian...

He faced the prince in the interrogation room and kept saying that either the suspect or the hostage would die!

Is that really the case?
In fact, he was cunningly changing the concept. In fact, even if the forced confession failed that night, the rich businessman might not die, but the stock market would fall when the market opened the next day, the boss would be angry, the leader would lose face, and his promotion would be affected.

Qiu Gangao is a bad guy and antisocial!
This is the basic tone. Of course, Shen Liang will not feel that he is wrong when acting. Otherwise, this character will lose all its charm!
He killed Aqing because Aqing betrayed him - she agreed to wait for him when he got out, but she turned around and followed someone else?

Can't stand it!
As for Lao Yao and his many friends, it can only be considered bad luck for them...

What a coincidence!
Oh, Shen Liang was troubled about the choice of Aqing...

Although there are many partners for artistic exchange, but... this is a pure guest role, with even less scenes than Qin Lan's Lan Keying... I might as well send WeChat messages to each of them and ask.

Just picked up the phone, and suddenly received a WeChat message from Rouba, "Are you in Hong Kong?"

Shen Liang immediately replied: "Yes, do you want to come over?"

“…Okay, I’ll go over there and play for a few days…”

"Then send me the flight information and I'll arrange for someone to pick you up!"

"Um…"

……

Shen Liang doesn't have much contact with Rouba...

I'm not very clear about her situation, I just know that she is very close to Tencent and has taken on several dramas.

Rouba has always been popular...

Many people say that she doesn’t have good resources…

I rely on!

Her resources are definitely among the best among all the young actresses, but she just didn't take advantage of them.

Not to mention "Gu Jian Qi Tan" and "Diamond Lover" at the beginning of their debut, and the later "Eternal Love", "You Are My Glory" and "The Long Ballad", these are all high-end of high-end, S+ level projects.

Unfortunately, it didn't catch fire, and with the addition of a water eagle...

That's fine, the two most awesome variety shows, "Running Man" and "Chicken Strip"...

Does this mean that the resources are bad?
Don’t analyze it afterwards, let’s just talk about "Chicken Strips", "Running Man", "You Are My Glory", "The Long Walk Song"... If you put it on any of the young actresses, they would wake up laughing in their dreams, which one of them is not a top resource?
The S-level top projects of the two major platforms, Tencent and Youku, competed for invitations.

Especially "Public Prosecution Elite" - in order to let Rouba be the leading actor, Tengxun replaced all the originally confirmed actors and crew. From beginning to end, only the "Public Prosecution Elite" IP and the female lead Re Rouba remained unchanged.

It was originally agreed that CCTV and Tencent would broadcast it exclusively, but later CCTV rejected it!

after that…

There was a problem within Tencent, and Tencent Video had been stuck with "Public Prosecution" for a year without airing it - Rouba's "One Thousand and One Nights" was not edited well before it was aired on both the Internet and TV channels;

"Public Prosecution Elite" was finally broadcast on Zhejiang TV, Beijing TV, iQiyi and Tencent TV.

It is clear that the platform has no hope for this drama and is distributing it only to make a profit.

It was not until 2023 that Tencent finally figured out how to play long videos - basically, the directors, screenwriters, producers, and editors, the group of people who produce resources, perform stably enough, and if the male and female protagonists have a little fame, even if the ending is bad, the show can still make a profit, or even become a small hit.

"Man Jiang Hong" was launched on video platforms, and among the major platforms, only Tencent did not buy it.

On the contrary, I interview director Guo Fan’s team and related production staff of "The Wandering Earth 2" two to three times every month, and rarely interview the actors!
I don’t really pursue the so-called traffic!
Then, Rouba moved to Youku.

Although the finished films "Legend of An Le" (from the team of "Word of Honor") and "When I First Met You, It's Like Old Friend Returns" (from the team of "Ashes of Love") are not very good, this thing was also an S+ top project when it was first launched.

What is the concept of S+?
Ordinary artists can’t even reach it!

Oh, she came to Hong Kong mainly to relax - after filming "Happiness Is Within", the team gave her a week's vacation.

It just so happened that she wanted to visit Hong Kong and heard that Shen Liang was filming here, so she contacted him!
Of course, to some extent, meat is also for the purpose of satisfying cravings...
