I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 503 A Temporary Change of Mind (14)

After all, he is a direct descendant!

I won an award, so I know how to help celebrate...

Other actors in the crew sent text messages to express their congratulations...

But forget about going to his place!

Shen Liang lived in a different place from them, so it was quite a drive away.

They found a restaurant, entered a private room, and Liu Xining called them to come over.

After the call, she poured Shen Liang a glass of water and asked, "…Is the Changchun Film Festival great?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "It's not very valuable, and not authoritative enough... But the organizer is directly under the General Administration, so it's not a fake award, it's not bad..."

Liu Xianing was curious: "Is there a bonus?"

"One thing is that it is not as good as the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards. Once a film is shortlisted at these two film festivals, the relevant parties will reimburse the prize money... For example, The Wandering Earth was shortlisted for the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards, and Qingdao Culture and Tourism gave it a bonus of 2000 million..."

"really?"

"Of course, this is all policy! To attract movies to shoot here," Shen Liang paused and continued, "The bonus for TV series is generally linked to the Five One Project Awards... Works that win the Five One Project Awards will receive a reward of more than one million. For movies, it is linked to the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards! Therefore, every year there are hundreds of movies applying for these two awards!"

Liu Xining muttered, "I thought the Golden Rooster Award was a fake award!"

“…Why do you think so?”

"At the beginning, 'Dreaming in the Entertainment Industry' invited a bunch of experts and professors, and many experts praised it... One of the experts even said: Invite me to participate in the Golden Rooster Awards..."

"Is that a compliment? That's just a polite remark!" Shen Liang was speechless: "It's like a poor kid who finished a work that he thought was as good as Cameron's. He showed it to his parents, who said it was good. He then showed it to his subordinates and guests. The subordinates and guests also gave him compliments verbally... What does that mean?"

Liu Xining shook his head.

"Have you never read "Zhou Ji Feng Qi Wang Na Jian"?" Shen Liang was speechless: "It's okay, just read more books! Parents love him, subordinates fear him, guests need him... it's obvious! Just like after finishing the work, you will hear a sentence, it doesn't matter, one minute is also great!"

"puff…"

Liu Xianing couldn't help but laugh out loud...

"What are you laughing at?"

“I feel like you are very skilled…”

"What do you mean by proficient?" Shen Liang was puzzled. He really didn't understand...

“One minute is also impressive…haha…”

"This is a joke..." Shen Liang immediately defended: "I always start from half an hour!"

"…Um."

"I'm telling the truth... Liu Xianing, stop laughing!"

Liu Xining quickly apologized: "I'm sorry..."

At this moment, Shen Liang's assistant came over and whispered something to him...

Shen Liang looked at the place he pointed at, and then told Liu Xining: "We have a hidden camera in this box!"

Liu Xining was surprised: "Really?"

Shen Liang looked at his assistant Wang Lingkai with a little pride, and then said: "Brother Wang is a professional..."

"…Then let's go to another place! To where you live?"

"That's fine, you go ahead and I'll pack the food."

Wang Lingkai interrupted: "You go first, I'll pack!"

……

Shen Liang's residence is about a fifteen-minute drive from the movie studio and less than a twenty-minute drive from the restaurant where he was going to eat...

But Shen Liang drove for more than forty minutes.

When getting off the car, Liu Xining's stockings were gone...

There is some redness and swelling on the knee.

Well, Shen Liang just took a detour and stopped for twenty minutes, letting her experience it for herself...she became much more obedient!
Wang Yijin and Zhang Yifan were already waiting at the door, holding cakes in their hands: "Why are you here so late?"

“…traffic jam…”

Shen Liang entered the password and the door opened...

After opening the door and walking in, there was a yard with two maple trees. Wang Yijin was surprised: "Wow, it's a yard!"

"…A three-story villa? You live alone?"

"…The assistant sometimes comes to stay here, and there are two housekeepers who clean the house every day…"

"Why don't you stay in a hotel?"

"The hotel is too noisy. My team rented this apartment for me..." Shen Liang opened the door to the living room and said, "Come in!"

"Your team rented it for you?"

"It's on the crew's account..." Shen Liang waved his hand: "The price of staying in this kind of house for a day is about the same as a suite in a five-star hotel. Now it's in the emotional stage, so I'll rent it out at half the price..."

“That’s expensive too!”

"Why should we save money for the capitalists? Our crew is not short of money..." Shen Liang said, "You guys can do whatever you want. Do you want a drink?"

"Any drinks?"

"There should be some in the fridge...but I usually just drink ice water,"

Opening the refrigerator, Shen Liang took out two bottles of iced black tea: "Would you like some?"

"…we can just have tea…"

"Then you guys make your own tea, the tea is over there... I'll go upstairs and change my clothes!"

As he was talking, Shen Liang left, and Wang Yijin immediately asked Liu Xining: "Where are your stockings?"

"I'm not wearing any!"

"…You're lying! I saw you wearing it this afternoon!"

"You saw it wrong!"

"Is he powerful?"

“…What do you mean by powerful or not? I don’t understand!”

"Wipe the stuff from your mouth first."

Liu Xining was startled and quickly took out a mirror from her bag: "Where is the thing near my mouth?"

“…Bitch!”

Over there, Zhang Yifan suddenly shouted, "Come and see, this is Liang Ge's live broadcast room, it's so big!"

"Studio?"

The two rushed over after hearing the noise… It was a computer room, with some sponsoring brands on the background wall. They were basically all brands endorsed by Shen Liang, 33 brands, in addition to some dolls, figurines, etc…

The layout is very cozy!
Zhang Yifan boasted: "I often watch Liang Ge's live broadcasts and am very familiar with his live broadcast room, so I knew at a glance that this is where he broadcasts live... He broadcasts live very frequently now, basically more than three times a week!"

Wang Yijin asked in confusion, "…He was promoting a movie a while ago, so he did a lot of live broadcasts. That's understandable. Isn't 'Raging Fire' going to be out soon?"

Zhang Yifan shook his head: "No, the reputation and box office of the newly released movies are not very good. Maybe "Raging Fire" can break 30 billion!"

“…Nolan’s new film “Tenet” and Liu Yifei’s “Mulan” are not good enough?”

"You can check the real-time box office on Maoyan!"

Tenet is a very Nolan movie...

Because he is also the screenwriter!
The first screenwriter of "Interstellar" was Jonathan Nolan, and the first screenwriter of "Inception" should be Satoshi Kon!

How do you evaluate "Tenet"?
It doesn’t look good!
There is just no climax!
Many netizens commented: "After watching it once, I can roughly understand Nolan's narrative purpose. I also believe that his story must be logically self-consistent. After watching it multiple times, I can sort out the timeline and details. However, the pleasure of watching the movie after watching it once is too low, and it completely cannot support my desire to watch it multiple times. Personally, I think this is the worst of Nolan's movies."

"It's not a bad movie, just mediocre..."

At the dinner table, Shen Liang commented on "Tenet" in this way.
