I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 626 Brother, why are you here? (45)

"The Accidental Murderer 2"...

This movie was made purely to take advantage of the IP of "The Accidental Murderer"!

"The Accidental Murder" is a remake of the Indian film "Alamy", both of which are suspense films.

Therefore, "The Accidental Murderer" has a strong suspense, and there is a high degree of confrontation between the two camps, which makes it very entertaining;
But "The Accidental Murderer 2" is a remake of "The Accidental Murderer," starring Denzel Washington.

It tells the story of a father who kidnaps doctors and patients in the hospital as hostages to threaten the police because his child cannot get a heart transplant.

The original film is not suspenseful, it is a realistic crime drama, and its focus is on accusing how the American medical system systematically crushes the American dream and forces hardworking and honest people into a desperate situation.

It doesn't have much suspense, but of course it is still very confrontational because it is a confrontation between one person and the entire system!

"Manslaughter 2"... Since it's called "manslaughter", it must be more suspenseful, so the story becomes that an official snatched the transplanted heart of the hero's child, and the hero made a "shocking plan" - kidnapping doctors and patients in the hospital as hostages to threaten the officials...

Manslaughter? Who was killed by mistake?

Therefore, it has never been able to surpass "Famous".

By the way, Shen Liang recommended three unpopular crime films to Chen Sicheng, namely "Suit", "A Beautiful World" and "Mean Streets", asking him to watch them carefully, maybe he can put together "Manslaughter 3"...

Anyway, he is good at sewing and mending.

By the way, there has been quite a stir recently regarding the Happy Camp incident...

After all, it was a program that had been with us for 24 years, and it just disappeared without even saying goodbye to the audience!

Base Camp is really...

The content of the program has long been irrelevant, and the number of minutes of screen time has become a bidding item for each fan club.

It has completely become a fan circle battleground!
From good to den, from evil to collapse.

It took only five short years from giving birthday cakes to giving gold bars!

Why doesn't Kuaiben even have a farewell ceremony?

Executing secretly is already the greatest respect they can have, why hold a memorial service?

"Teacher He... I used to think he was worldly-wise, but he was kind to everyone without expecting anything in return... In simple terms, he was especially good at taking care of newcomers and the disadvantaged, and he paid attention to details. He had strong empathy, and he was also very good at handling crises on the spot.

Teacher He has not changed much over the years. His smile can be described by two idioms: refreshing like a spring breeze.

I will be on a few episodes of Mr. He’s show later, such as “The Great Detective”…”

"He is my teacher in hosting, and I debuted on "Big Camp" all thanks to Mr. He for cueing me and giving me the opportunity..."

“…I can’t be ungrateful!”

A friend mentioned Wang Han, and Shen Liang replied: "Wang Han, Brother Han's health has not been very good... He is a regular employee, and now he is the deputy director... We are in contact frequently, and I will ask him for advice when I encounter something..."

“I don’t know if “Mars Intelligence Agency” will be rebooted. Even if it is, can it regain the feeling of the past? I doubt it!”

"Okay, I'm not going to chat with you anymore. I need to go to bed. I have to get up early tomorrow morning to shoot!"

……

Dong Runnian’s first film, directed and acted in, was a failure. It was called “The Man Caught by the Light”…

In fact, before "The Man Caught by Light", he directed a compilation film "City of Love" with Wen Muye, Han Zhi, Ji Jiatong and Fu Tianyu...

Five short stories about five couples in the world's five "holy lands of love"!
Then Wen Muye became a new talented director with "Dying to Survive".

Dong Runnian must be a little indignant. After all, before this, Dong Runnian was already a talented screenwriter in the industry. "Lost in Thailand", "Mr. Six", "Crazy Alien"... were all well-received and popular works!
Therefore, "The Man Caught by Light" gathered a lot of stars, including Huang Bo, Wang Luodan, Tan Zhuo, Bai Ke, Huang Lu, Song Chunli, Wen Qi...

And then it was a box office flop!

It even set the lowest box office record for movies starring Huang Bo in recent years - the previous one was "Go Fighting: Royal Treasure", that variety show movie had a box office of 1.25 million, while "The Man Caught by Light" only had 7000 million!
After the profits were split, it wasn’t even enough to pay Huang Bo’s salary.

Dong Runnian was depressed for a long time.

He hadn’t taken on any new projects for more than a year until Shen Liang contacted him…

Shen Liang clearly said, "You are the director of "Keep You Safe" and "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop!"

Since his junior fellow apprentice trusted him so much, Dong Runnian definitely didn’t want to mess it up.

The script of "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop!" is easy to write. As long as the characters are perfected, Hu Jianlin, a fitter, is transferred to the headquarters by mistake, and then promoted three levels, but he is incompatible with the environment of the big factory...

With this premise, it’s a typical comedy of misplacement – ​​a country bumpkin comes to the city and causes a bunch of jokes!
The most famous movie in film history, Welcome to the North, is of this type. Chinese-language movies also have this type of movie. The movie Family Fun, starring Sam Hui, is also of this type of movie.

But there is a problem, Hu Jianlin cannot be 30 years old, he must be at least 45!

Shen Liang is not suitable...

He told Shen Liang about this, and Shen Liang said straightforwardly: "It's OK, I've contacted Yu and Teacher Wei, and asked them to play Hu Jianlin!"

By the way, Shen Liang also suggested that he could make a friendly guest appearance...

Dong Runnian was quite touched...

After finishing "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop!", I came to "Keep You Safe", and there was another problem!
That is Wei Ping'an's driving force.

At the beginning, his driving force may be "for the client's innocence", but...how to persevere when encountering so many difficulties?

New driving force is needed!

Dong Runnian thought of family affection, and the new driving force was his daughter!
Here comes the problem again…

At Shen Liang’s age, it’s not very credible for him to play a divorced man living alone - he’s too handsome.

And a daughter...

According to the plot, this daughter is in junior high school!

That means at least 10 years old or older.

Brother Liang has a daughter who is over ten years old?
This is really not very credible.

What should I do?
Persuade Shen Liang to give up starring in "Keep You Safe"?
No, that's too much. They gave you two projects in total, and you didn't keep any for him?

Is that true?
But if I don’t change it, the logic of the script won’t work…

"Keep You Safe" is more realistic, and the protagonist is just an ordinary middle-aged man...

Pay attention, it’s middle age!
Dong Runnian simply wrote a version according to his own ideas, and then wrote another version according to the male lead Shen Liang...

I heard him read both versions, and the more he read, the more guilty he felt…

Forget it, let Shen Liang decide for himself!
It’s not appropriate to call...I just went to the Watergate set in person.

When he arrived, Shen Liang was chatting with Wu Jing - the scenes had been filmed and the director was checking if there was anything else that needed to be re-shot.

He immediately saw Dong Runnian: "Brother, here!"
