I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 552: Fight (33)

"Life Events" does not follow the common "depressing" path of the subject matter, but instead focuses on depicting the fireworks of the world...

Other directors often shoot about death with awe.

"Life Events" is different, it is respectful but not fearful.

Respectful, but bland.

It seems as if death is as common as eating and drinking.

The story begins with Xiaowen's grandmother dying in her sleep, making it seem as if she hasn't woken up yet. By the time Xiaowen comes to her senses, her grandmother has disappeared from her side.

There is no deliberate exaggeration, but it makes it seem unexpected.

This is what death really looks like in our lives.

Death takes only a moment, but acceptance takes a long time.

The rhythm is very comfortable and the story flows smoothly. There is no deliberate "sadness or joy" for the sake of "sadness or joy", but instead various thoughts are given based on the development of the story.

Rough, but real.

It is a rare and excellent film for a movie to be able to express true emotions and accurately convey them to the audience.

The third brother comes from a funeral family, and even his brother-in-law works in a funeral home. He was taught to inherit the mantle, but he also suffered a lot of contempt and ridicule since he was a child, and had to constantly come into contact with life and death.

Very secular, the third brother's job is not very profitable, he lives in a small shabby house passed down from his ancestors, sleeps on a bunk bed, and even goes to the hospital to solicit customers and is scolded for "jumping on him like a dog". He also wants to accept the unreasonable funeral of his grandfather...

Because I want to make money!
The whole movie has a brisk pace and a compact and complete storyline...

But where the tempo should be slowed down, it is very slow - the part where the third brother is tidying up the remains of his enemy...

Added a narration: In the long time, carefully and calmly, love, hate and emotions will all disappear at the moment of death.

Shen Liang’s acting was also good, especially the fighting power of the scumbag…

No one can beat...

First, she was beaten by Xixi's husband, and then she was pinned down by Jianren...

You know, Shen Liang is a good fighter. In "Raging Fire", he competed with Zhen Zidan. In "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils", he beat Andy On. But in "Life Events", no one can beat him...

However, Xiaowen's biological mother appeared in the final stage.

After the movie ended, during the interview session, someone asked about this.

"We should be together... This is our last bit of kindness to our third sister...

I have discussed this with the director. Look, Mo Sanmei is not even 30 years old, has been in jail, has a criminal record, works in the funeral industry, and has a little girl... It is basically difficult for a man like this to find a wife in the blind date market... He is likely to be single for the rest of his life, and Haifei is the best choice!"

Director Liu Jiangjiang nodded: "Brother Liang is very handsome, but the third sister is very miserable. There is a saying that those who make money from the dead are "widowed, lonely and disabled". He also adopted a little girl who is not related to him by blood. This is very easy to be criticized. How to give this oriental fairy tale a perfect ending? We designed Xiaowen's biological mother to return..."

At this point, he looked at Nini and said, "And Nini and Liang Ge have starred in "Want to See You". I really like that TV series, and it can be regarded as a dream come true! It's just that Liang Ge didn't want to add a love scene, which I feel very sorry about!"

Shen Liang quickly explained: "...I don't think it's necessary to shoot so full, give the audience some room for interpretation..."

"Our filming was actually quite simple, and we basically got it right in one take. We rehearsed many times, and Liang Ge accompanied little Nezha every day, and Yang En rehearsed again..."

Shen Liang waved his hand: "I learned a lot from the little girl. Her sense of relaxation is natural... and it triggered a lot of ideas about acting. Little girls don't have so many things to bear, nor do they have any obsessions or demands. Therefore, when they perform, they are as light as elves... I actually have a sense of design in many cases... Maybe this is what we often say, the ancestors rewarded me with food!"

……

It’s been a long time since we had such a formal process.

Shen Liang’s previous films were basically released directly, and there were rarely any premiere ceremonies…

Because there is no need!
To be honest, Life Events doesn’t really need it…

After all, Shen Liang is the lead actor, and these four words alone are attractive enough.

But the film producers and cinema chains all thought that holding a premiere would help attract media coverage…

Most importantly, a bunch of celebrities with nothing to do need an occasion to show their faces...

The premiere of "Life Events" provides the stage.

After the premiere, many people came to congratulate Shen Liang for completing an excellent work...

This also includes Zhang Ziyi.

Shen Liang had met Zhang Ziyi at Weibo Movie Night before, but they didn't have any further contact...

In Shen Liang's opinion, the Four Dans and Two Bings belong to the previous generation! Actually, that's not quite right. Strictly speaking, Shen Liang is a post-95s rising star. The idols born after 85 belong to his previous generation, while the Four Dans and Two Bings are from an earlier generation.

Oh, Zhang Ziyi praised "Life Events" very seriously, and then said, "You really should ask me to act in it!"

"…The core of this play is Mo Sanmei and Wu Xiaowen, there is no room for other characters to play…"

“For me, as long as the script is good, nothing else matters!”

“…Yeah, next time for sure!”

Zhang Ziyi… her status is there, even if she wants to cooperate with Shen Liang, her attitude is to actively show goodwill, hoping that Shen Liang will lick her…

Yang Tianbao is a little different.

She...said first: "The movie is really good..."

"Thanks…"

"If the next play finds me, I'm willing to act for free!"

Shen Liang looked at her and said, "...Sister Tianbao, you don't need any movies to film, right?"

Tianbao immediately said anxiously: "We are in great need... Do you want to talk in detail?"

Shen Liang hurriedly said: "...I still have to do the publicity... maybe another day..."

……

It's not that I'm scared...

Well, he was indeed scared!

Yang Tianbao, even Xiaoming can't stand it...

After the premiere, the creative team of "Life Events" gathered together, and the person in charge of publicity came over with materials: "There is no need to go on a roadshow, after all, the current environment does not allow it..."

“So how do we promote it?”

"Promote it online...Hold a few live broadcasts..."

"...Alright," Shen Liang nodded: "Then what should we do now?"

Wei Daxun asked, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay..." Shen Liang shook his head, then remembered something: "I have an interview with "Four Poisonous Uncles", who will come with me?"

"I!"

"I!"

Nini and Nazha both raised their hands...

Then they gave way to each other: "You go..."

"Go ahead…"

Wei Daxun asked cautiously: "How about both of you go?"

Shen really wanted to say, "If you want me to die, just say so!"

Jiao Junyan chuckled: "Who does Brother Liang want to take with him?"

"I'm fine with anything," Shen Liang said casually, "How about, Sister Jiao, let's go together?"

Jiao Junyan was speechless: "I won't go with you..."

Naza stared at Shen Liang, who gritted his teeth secretly: "Naza, come with me, Nini still has to shoot "Night Traveler"!"

Nini felt a little disappointed, but not particularly sad. She stood up and smiled: "...Okay, I'll leave first then?"

Shen Liang immediately stood up: "I'll see you off!"

"No, there are staff following..."

"This is BJ. As a local boss, it's normal for me to send my friend off..."

Naza also stood up: "... Let's send it off together..."

Wei Daxun held back his laughter and pulled Jiao Junyan who was also eating melons...
