I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 556 Word of Mouth (14)

The impact of hit works on actors is huge...

It can make an unknown actor become popular!

It can be divided into two parts: TV series and movies.

First of all, for TV series, a good hit with wide circulation can bring dividends for quite a long time. The character filter can cover up the shortcomings of the actor in other aspects to a certain extent, and the audience's requirements will be lowered appropriately. Even if the plot is bad, the audience will not criticize the actor, and may even feel sorry for the actor. This is the so-called anti-drama.

For example, Rouba!
After so many years of acting, the ones I still remember most are Gao Wen and Feng Jiu...

But she is not the protagonist in these two dramas.

The Golden Eagle Award directly destroyed Rouba's popularity, and she subsequently failed to produce a high-quality work to prove to the audience that she deserved the Golden Eagle Award.

Of course, she and her team also have problems. The capital has tried very hard. Whatever others shoot becomes popular, and Rouba shoots whatever is popular. Others become popular whoever they shoot with, and Rouba shoots with whoever is popular.

Moreover, she could appear in any drama she was cast in, without any delays at all - "One Thousand and One Nights" was broadcasted directly before the editing was completed, so she could only edit while it was broadcasting...

Then, the series were produced like an assembly line. This premise led to her not having a deep understanding of the role, so she presented templated acting skills + superficial understanding of the role. She could not create a successful character, and of course no good production would offer her an olive branch.

But the filters of Gao Wen and Feng Jiu still have a large number of loyal fans.

Enough to ensure that she can stay at the top of the first line...

The impact of the movie is even more profound!

"The Man Taken Away by Light", "Mozart from Outer Space" and the TV series "The Man Taken Away by Light". Although Huang Bo has failed so many times, he is still a first-line superstar and has the right to speak - he can choose suitable roles and scripts.

Looking at his reserve projects, the directors he has collaborated with, from Xu Lei to Zhong Wei, are all well-known directors. Xu Lei’s representative work is Sherlock on the Plains, and Zhong Wei was previously a screenwriter, with representative works such as I Am Not the God of Medicine, Miracle Stupid Kid, and The Vanishing Bullet…

Shen Liang is already a superstar, he doesn't need a lot of extra support...

But many actors in "Life Events", such as Wei Daxun, Jiao Junyan and Naza, need media exposure...

Especially the popular ones that have received rave reviews!

Naza has been in the industry for almost ten years, but as an actor, he has not had a single outstanding role.

Oh, not really. The Jianguo of Sewing Machine Band is pretty good...

But that movie was beaten by "The Shameful Iron Fist" released in the same period. The movie itself did not attract much discussion, let alone the characters!

Her last big screen movie was Dynasty Warriors - what a mess that movie was!

"Life Events" has a Douban score of 8.2 and a Maoyan score of 9.7. Most importantly, it sold well on the first day. It can be predicted that it will be a hit.

Then every character will be discussed...

Naza’s excitement is understandable!
Shen Liang wanted to say "routine operation" but noticed that she had changed her outfit: her hair was tied up, she was wearing a pair of decorative glasses, and she was wearing his white shirt...

how to say…

Dignified yet cute, cute yet a little bit coquettish...

Noticing Shen Liang's expression, she knelt down...

After more than ten minutes, I ran to the bathroom and came back quickly - the warm-up was over, and it was time for live shooting!

As the saying goes, the green mountains on both sides face each other, and a lone sail comes from the horizon.

However, just as Shen Liang was about to fill in the blank, Naza suddenly said, "Call Rouba and turn on the speakerphone!"

“…You’re a pervert!”

"…Don't you think this is interesting?"

interesting?

Could you please explain what is interesting?

Shen Liang ignored her and continued to finish his homework. …

"Life Events" has a very good reputation.

“There is nothing more important in life than death. Every star in the sky is someone who has loved us.”

“The plot is loose at the beginning and tight at the end, but the emotional intensity is quite high. How to support the bond between the down-and-out hero and the orphan girl in a short period of time is a big challenge. The director’s skills are not enough, but the sincerity overflowing from the screen makes people unable to help but give praise!”

"Liang Ge's performance was good. Although the ending was a bit cliché, every character was well acted. This is a very good movie in recent years for me."

There are also many pertinent comments:
"The director is too greedy: death, conflict between parents, children, loser's self-help, breakup, childhood trauma, any topic will be beautiful if filmed well, but he is involved in so many things at once, but he only tries them briefly, which is not good enough... Many plots are driven by phone calls, and they are all handled passively. But despite this, it is still encouraging to make such a movie in such an environment..."

"Liang Ge is indeed Liang Ge. I heard that this play only took eight months from the start of investment to the shooting. The director himself has never made a feature film... This film, from the backstage to the actors, was invited by Liang Ge. I hope every new director can meet a practitioner like Liang Ge!"

Of course, there were also negative reviews, which focused on Xiaowen’s mother and the overly forced plot advancement.

Some people who have "watched a lot of movies" also said, "It's obvious that the film wanted to pay tribute to the undertaker and explore the philosophy of human nature and life and death, but the result is so cliché..."

However, the negative reviews have little impact. Overall, the first-day word-of-mouth score was 8.2 points, which is in the excellent category.

……

"I always thought Daxun was a good actor. My first play was called "Love Through the Millennium 2: Exchange Under the Moonlight". The character I played was Jiang Shikai, and Daxun was the male lead. I saw Daxun act at that time..."

"Love Through the Millennium 2? Have you acted in it?"

"Oh, I filmed that movie for half a month, but I couldn't stand the stupid plot arranged by the director, so I had a big fight and then I was fired..."

Offline promotion...

Due to the objective influence of the overall environment, we basically just held a press conference and did not go to the cinema for a roadshow.

The next day, the crew arrived in Wuhan.

Shen Liang praised Wei Daxun...

At this point, Shen Liang asked Wei Daxun: "Is that movie directed by a Korean director?"

"Correct."

"Since then, I have lost all my filter for Korean directors... I have never acted in a company-produced drama again, even if it is produced by Tianyu. However, I have always had a good relationship with Daxun..."

"Jiao Junyan... I've watched "Forensic Qin Ming" and "Meeting Wang Lichuan", and I've always liked her..."

Jiao Junyan smiled and said, "He is compensating me!"

"compensate?"

"In the previous episode of Peak Explosion, he felt that I was not suitable and kicked me out. I was very angry, and then Life Events found me!"

"...It's really not suitable. We are playing a couple, or you have a crush on me..."

"I can't have a crush on you?"

"I mean the characters..."

“Director, do you think “Life Events” meets your expectations?”

Liu Jiangjiang smiled and said, "My dream has come true if this movie can be made. After all, I had nothing but the script at that time..."

"Have you seen the audience's feedback?"

"Of course I have watched it," Liu Jiangjiang nodded.

"Many viewers have reported that the appearance of Xiaowen's mother is a bit abrupt... What do you think?"

"It should be that we didn't execute it well when we were filming... Liang Ge told me that once a movie is released, the right to interpret it belongs to the audience. It's their freedom to like it or not... If you think it's ugly and makes sense, just remember their comments. If it doesn't make sense, just ignore it. Anyway, don't try to defend it!"
