I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 52 Shooting starts

Shen Liang studied acting for a while.

What is performance?
In simple terms, acting is to interpret another character!
How to do it?
You have to feel it, feel the character, get into it, and then speak his lines...

Actually, it's quite simple. Of course, feelings are fluid. For an actor, it depends on how you look at the degree. Everyone has different standards.

Why are there so many bad actors nowadays?

Because they have no feelings, they just deal with it mechanically, and they are even too lazy to deal with it...

Shen Liang has a somewhat performative personality. He likes to express himself, sometimes not for the sake of gaining attention or recognition, but more because it feels good to express himself. Being able to show a part of himself within his own scope makes him happy.

His basic design for Liu Qi is irritable...

Low sense of social morality, afraid of being looked down upon, somewhat arrogant, somewhat selfish...

You see, he has been without parents since childhood, is full of dissatisfaction and even hatred towards his father, and grew up in a very bad environment. He has to bear the burden of life at a young age.

The personality traits he possesses are a bit like those of a left-behind child.

It is actually normal to have a bad temper, be a little withdrawn and selfish.

Of course, this character also has a passionate side and is a man with dreams.

Therefore, Shen Liang asked the screenwriter to add a sincere word at the end, which is a monologue by Liu Qi after the father and son reconciled: In fact, if I faced the same choice as you, I would also choose to sacrifice my wife...

Oh, the lines went very smoothly...

Shen Liang is a singer himself, with a strong voice, clear pronunciation, and a good level of line delivery. In addition, he is very good at public speaking and has strong emotional investment, so there will be no problem with the lines!
Wu Mengda was very satisfied with Shen Liang's performance: "I feel it's pretty good... I'll try again tomorrow, and we'll be able to shoot almost the day after tomorrow!"

“…Uncle Da, what do you think of my acting?”

"Acting skills depend on the situation... I always think that the most important thing for an actor is to have a good director to judge him, because actors are often not sober, that is, when they are acting, they may not feel whether they are good or bad, or what they need to correct... At this time, the director really needs to judge..."

Shen Liang thought for a moment: "So, excellent actors are more willing to work with excellent directors..."

"Yes, a good director can bring out the best in an actor..."

Shen Liang nodded and looked at Guo Fan: "Director Guo, it depends on you!"

"I...I'll try my best."

"Uncle Da, would you like to have a midnight snack? It's my treat!"

"Sure, I heard the seafood here is good..."

Shen Liang looked at Zhao Jinmai: "Maimai, let's go together..."

Zhao Jinmai shook his head: "I won't go, I still have to do my homework..."

"Then I'll ask the staff to bring it to you. What do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine..."

"Director Guo, please call all the other actors..."

"All of them?"

"Yes, all of them!"

"Tsk tsk, you are still rich!"

Shen Liang was speechless: "How much does it cost to have a midnight snack?
"There are more than a thousand people in our crew!"

Shen Liang quickly changed his words: "I'm talking about the actors, not the staff."

If I really want to invite more than a thousand people to dinner, I can afford it...

There is no need!

……

The National Day holiday is coming, and naturally there are many films coming out during this big holiday...

"The Shameful Iron Fist", "Beyond the Cthulhu", "Chasing the Dragon", "Sewing Machine Band", "Sky Hunter"... each one of them has a great background!

“Iron Fist” comedy upstart Happy Twist;
Jackie Chan in "Beyond the Storm"
"Chasing the Dragon", Wang Jing + Andy Lau + Zhen Zidan;
"Sewing Machine Band" is Dapeng's second work directed and acted in - the first "Pancake Man" has exceeded 1 billion...

"Sky Hunter", known as the first military action film after "Wolf Warrior 2"...

I heard that in order to compete for the screening schedule, at the luncheon for the National Cinema Domestic Film Promotion Conference, Fat Fan raised his glass on the stage and drank it all...

Is there any effect?

There are some. In the National Day period, a few days ago, although from the perspective of the entire film market, Sky Hunter had an average of less than 10% of the screenings per day, the film companies that had cooperated with Fan had more than 30% of the screenings, but the attendance rate was pitifully low...

What did Li Chen do?
Well, we can’t say we did nothing. On September 9, Li Chen posted a Weibo message: We, forever…, and Fan Xiaopang also reposted it: Forever, forever…

The two are engaged!
Fan Xiaopang also posted a Weibo post: "I feel my life is perfect! I don't want the stars in the sky, I just want earthly happiness! I am very happy! And I am very lucky! Thank you for always loving me! Happy today! Happy birthday! Love you all!"

Tsk tsk…

I always feel like it's to promote Sky Hunter...

Really attentive...

Oh, these have nothing to do with Shen Liang. The only thing related to Shen Liang in recent days is probably PG One’s official announcement as the endorsement of Puma. In the beginning, he contacted Shen Liang and the talks were almost done. The brand felt that hip-hop stars were more appealing and more in line with the brand’s positioning…

Then I contacted PG One and quickly signed an endorsement contract...

There is nothing we can do about it, since he is so popular...

However, Shen Liang doesn’t care about this - there are many brands contacting him!

At this stage, more high-end brands are all facing the problem of becoming outdated. Brands are increasingly in need of keeping up with the preferences and aesthetics of younger people, chasing traffic and taking advantage of hot topics. From the leading actors of popular IP dramas or young actors to traffic queens and potential new stars, brands have extended olive branches.

In the past, when big brands chose spokespeople, they would often enter an observation period of six months to a year in advance, carefully weighing multiple aspects including personal image, commercial value, and other endorsements.

Now, choose whoever is popular!

Shen Liang is a definite potential rising star, so signing him is a good move.

……

After Shen Liang joined the crew, they rehearsed for three days and started filming on the fourth day...

Not that the rehearsal was very effective...

Lei Datou, who mainly played the role of the first brother, only had three days - he came here to guest star in "Crazy Alien", and then was pulled by Guo Fan to guest star in "The Wandering Earth"...

The studio next door is filming "Crazy Alien"...

I heard that the crew has been working on the construction project since 16!
It was shot by Ning Hao's team and was originally called "Rural Teachers". After the sample film came out, although the special effects were a bit low-end, the story context and character emotions were basically retained.

However, it didn’t look good no matter how you looked at it, and it didn’t taste right in any way, and everyone was very depressed.

Director Ning muttered to himself every day: This won’t work, this won’t work…

That’s right, Director Ning is a person who values ​​his reputation. He is willing to pay compensation, but he will never allow someone to be slapped in the face.

The entire crew tried many approaches, including spending a lot of money to invite various great consultants, and finally came to a conclusion: Director Ning's team could not shoot real science fiction, and if they forced it, they would only end up in failure.

Time is running out, Director Ning grits his teeth and starts over!
So the entire crew started over from the script, worked overtime, and finally came up with "Crazy Alien"...

This is a pure comedy, mixed with the black humor that Director Ning is best at. It is not a real science fiction movie. In the jargon, it is just dressed in science fiction clothes.

Huang Bo and Shen Teng were invited, and Lei Datou made a cameo appearance...

These are what Guo Fan told Shen Liang - the space capsule built by Ning Hao's crew was not used much, and was directly lent to "The Wandering Earth"...

They have a good relationship. In the same batch of directors who went to Hollywood to study, there were Chen Sicheng, Xiao Yang, Lu Yang, etc.

Xiao Yang later filmed "Weather Forecast", Lu Yang filmed "Assassination of Novelist", and Chen Sicheng filmed "Mozart from Outer Space"...

They are all big productions with special effects!
