I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 610 Invitation (14)

"I read a review that 'Chasing the Dreams of Show Business' is a groundbreaking movie..."

Xu Zheng was surprised: "Era-changing?"

"It's someone else's review, listen to me... If you put a camera on a dog, find a chicken to sprinkle rice on the keyboard, and finally close your eyes and use your feet to make do with it, the movie you finally make may not be as bad as "Dream of Show Business". A movie that bad is definitely not something that ordinary people can make!"

Liu Xunzimo couldn't help but interject: "The comments I read were 'From the script to the director, from the acting to the editing, from the publicity to the box office, they have all reached a low level that is difficult for future generations to reach...'"

"There are also people saying 'Chasing Dreams in the Entertainment Industry has refreshed the bottom line of bad movies, greatly broadened the breadth of my country's film market, lowered the entry threshold for directors and screenwriters, increased employment opportunities, and made positive explorations to reduce the unemployment rate...'"

"No, this is what you guys watch online?"

"We usually don't pay attention to bad movies... but movies like "Dreaming of Show Business" are so rare... I don't think even "Report to the Boss" can be changed!"

Liu Xunzi was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Indeed...it can't be changed!"

Ma Dong smirked: "What does Mr. Huang Bo think?"

A group of people looked at Huang Bo, including several actors...

——When “Chasing Dreams in Entertainment Circle” was promoted, Huang Bo and Ning Hao both helped out on stage.

In fact, it is a polite phrase similar to "Good luck in opening your business" and "Congratulations on your prosperity"...

After all, Bo Ge was not an expert or scholar at the time, and he had not seen the real movie...

Shen Liang waved his hand and said seriously, "No more jokes. Actually, I wanted to make a comedy variety show last year, Sketch Comedy, because I felt that comedy variety shows were not funny anymore... I wanted to make a comedy variety show that was a little funnier, and not invite familiar faces...

At that time, I discussed the idea with Yahuazi Comedy, who is a single person... I also talked to Rao Xiaozhi, who was a pioneer in comedy before... Ah Qiu should know about this! "

Ah Qiu, who was sitting in the back row, nodded...

The Graphite Deer Cult... the four trump cards of Shanliren... have all disbanded...

Shi, Shi Jiefu, stage name Shi Laoban, is the founder of Danliren Comedy.

The next three: Zhou Qimo, Xiaolu and the "leader" Liu Yang...

Danliren used to be the utopia of talk shows. Currently, the relatively well-known talk show hosts in the industry, including Yang Meng'en, Rock, Yang Li, Tong Mo'nan, and Xu Zhisheng, were all contracted artists of "Danliren" - yes, they all jumped to "Xiaoguo" later.

Those talk show hosts who failed to become popular offline through "Danliren" became famous overnight with the help of the online variety show "Xiaoguo". Their ideals were smashed on the golden stage, making a crisp sound, and then a bunch of gold coins burst out - that thing was really attractive.

Now it’s time for “reality” to ask “ideal” a question: The stage is there, will you go or not?
So, Ma Dong organized an annual comedy conference, and Dan Liren also joined!
Ma Dong was curious: "Why didn't you do it?"

"I took on 'Changjin Lake' and it took 200 days to shoot, so I was delayed... When I came back, there were seven or eight dramas waiting to be filmed, so I didn't do it! It's a pity. Now that I think about it, I was too conceited. I thought that no one in China could do a comedy variety show except me!"

Ma Dong continued: “You may not know that Liang Ge is very good at making programs. He made “Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves” back then, and we launched “Rock Summer” at the same time... That variety show almost bankrupted us, Miwei!”

“…It’s not that exaggerated… ‘Rockin’ Summer’ is still quite popular…” Shen Liang waved his hands hurriedly: “I can only do planning. Even if I have the idea of ​​sketching, it is very likely that I won’t be able to make ‘Annual Comedy Competition’…”

"How to say?"

"There is no Teacher Ma Dong!"

……

After chatting for a while, Ma Dong suddenly asked, "I heard that Director Liu Xunzimo came to our Comedy Competition to select actors?"

Liu Xunzi nodded: "Yes... a new movie, it will start shooting in January... the lead actor is Shen Liang!" "Do you want to choose the lead actor?"

"It's the lead actor..."

Shen Liang explained: "It's a satirical comedy, quite bold..."

Yang Mi, who had been silent the whole time, interrupted: "It's satirizing reality shows and Chinese entertainment stars!"

"…Yes, our theme is to use a reality show to show the indifference of celebrities to the public and their contempt for ordinary people… We are currently lacking two leading actors, one to play a second-generation celebrity with resources, and the other to play a variety show idiot…"

Ma Dong was puzzled: "Ignore?"

Shen Liang smiled: "The child who grew up in the honey pot talked about the taste of bitter melon with a grin. The dumb man who was eating coptis root was forced to listen to the story of the honey pot child. The honey pot child even made a joke out of it, even though they didn't bite the bitter melon at all..."

Liu Xunzimo: "Brother Liang told me about this idea, and I thought it was interesting... The theme of the reality show is to let celebrities experience the life of workers..."

Huang Bo disagreed: "We've done this before!"

This is true, "Go Fighting"... Whether it's Urban Night Walker or 24-Hour Survival Challenge...

"Brother Bo, you are you. Most young artists nowadays, especially those with rich families, are different from you... You have experienced it, but the current traffic stars have not. How can people with millions of endorsements understand the hardship of a monthly salary of less than 4000..."

"Who do you fancy?"

Shen Liang pointed at the stage: "I want all three of them..."

"Then I go back and revise the script?"

"No need to change, Shi Meng can play the role of the group PD..."

Several actors on the stage could not hide their surprise: "Really?"

Yang Mi: "You have to think carefully, it's easy to offend people by acting in this movie!"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "What they want now is the opportunity to be seen by others. It doesn't matter if they offend others or not... After all, they dare to act in "Dreaming in the Entertainment Circle", so what is there to be afraid of for our movie?"

“…The show Chasing Dreams is mentioned again…”

"I'm just giving you an example..." Shen Liang smiled and said, "Leave your contact information to the director later..."

……

Oh, and finally there’s “The Invisible Man” by San Gou…

Ma Dong asked Shen Liang: "What do you think of San Gou?"

Xu Zheng also looked over - in a previous episode, Ma Dong and Xu had an argument. Xu Zheng believed that comedy should have meaning, while Ma Dong believed that comedy should make people laugh first...

Shen Liang thought for a moment and replied, "I've watched the show by the Three Dogs Band. I also watched an episode of the Chinese version of Saturday Night Live... It was quite funny. The conflict between the absurdity and the actors' sense of belief created a joke... It made the audience laugh..."

"So do you like this form?"

"I may be more logical. I think the high-level jokes are the kind that are "unexpected but reasonable"... Their works are unexpected and unreasonable, lacking continuity and logic, and many are completely out of touch. So they look too deliberate, and the kind of funny that tickles the armpits. Sensitive audiences may even find it a bit awkward."
