I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 633 Shen Liangnian (34)

After a pause, Shen Liang continued, "Many of our creators are clearly making commercial films, but they insist on putting art first. If art really comes first, it's fine, but many of them are foreigners who put art first!"

"Foreigners' art comes first..."

"Just like the recent controversial film Young Lion, no matter whether the director did it on purpose or not, if the audience feels offended, he should apologize. Why are you saying 'art is independent, aesthetics is diverse'? You have completely forgotten that your film is for Chinese audiences!"

"Our national awakening is getting higher and higher. We have zero tolerance for such "traditional Chinese insulting" elements as the squinty-eyed models of the X Huamei Academy and Chen Man's photography of ugly Chinese people!"

"You actually used this kind of thing to make a movie?"

"What's the current state of the film market? No one watches Hollywood blockbusters anymore, so who cares about your artistic pursuits? You insist that ugly people can also play leading roles, but there are so many ways to be ugly, but you chose the 'classic' squinty eyes. It's like someone insisted on wearing a kimono to go shopping on the 'Nanjing Massacre Memorial Day'."

"It feels like you know too much, not that you don't understand. You just want to make trouble... People like you are crazy!"

"Secondly, I really dislike the idea of ​​exploring different aesthetics because it's too old-fashioned. It makes me feel like, 'Why do you always appear in every crackdown on pornography? '... On the other hand, if squinting eyes are not meant to cater to us, then who are they trying to cater to?"

“Who do you think you’re catering to?”

"Foreign sir!"

"Then why do you think there is no market for Hollywood blockbusters?"

“First of all, I feel that I am fed up. Sometimes I think it is important to judge others by yourself. As a creator, have you ever put yourself in the position of the audience?

Second, today’s Chinese audiences are more concerned about our own predicaments and our own living conditions!
After the economic downturn, the audience's frequency of watching movies has decreased. In the past, people would go to the cinema to enjoy the air conditioning when they had nothing to do, but now people are no longer willing to do that. Therefore, the willingness and motivation to go to the cinema are very important. The movie must be something that everyone can talk about after leaving, which is what I call interesting!"

The last question: "Can you respond to the relationship?"

Shen Liang thought for a while, then said: "I don't have time to fall in love. For me, the time cost of falling in love is too high... Maybe in a few years, I will consider these..."

"Are there many girls chasing after you?"

"I don't know... maybe a lot, but I never interact with people I don't know well alone... I don't like to attend dinner parties or drinking parties... even if there are any, I won't be able to interact with them!"

……

Oh, this year's film market, the total box office data is 652 billion, Shen Liang's six films, "Underground Fire" 47 billion, "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" 34.27 billion, "Life Events" 49.5 billion, "Peak Explosion" 36.8 billion, "Changjin Lake" 60.7 billion, "Famous" is still in theaters, and the current box office has reached 29 billion...

He alone occupies six seats in the top ten of the rankings, and they are all relatively high!
In the film history list, he occupies seven of the top ten box office lists, plus "The Wandering Earth"...

In the top 20, "Raging Fire" and "The Evil Dead" can also be counted, which means there are nine seats!
If "My Country, My Parents" and "My Hometown and I" are also counted, there will be eleven seats.

Without a doubt, this year is the year of Shen Liang!
Most importantly, none of the movies he starred in were bad. The lowest Douban score was above 7 points. The highest-rated movie was "A Sun" with 8.8 points, followed by "Underground Fire" with 8.6 points, "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils" and "The Evil" both with 8.1 points.

A phenomenal superstar!
In terms of box office data, he is far ahead of everyone else, more than twice that of the second place Wu Jing!

Leaving everyone in the dust...

The essence of the film industry is that business and box office are king. Whoever decides business and box office will dominate the mainstream of the film industry. Therefore, in Hollywood, only those who have personal box office appeal are the real first-line stars, far better than those Oscar winners who have superb acting skills but no box office appeal. Even if the marketing account led the rhythm some time ago, it only talked about the gossip and never mentioned his actual achievements!

Many fans who have a lot of traffic will also exclude Shen Liang when they review the performance of their idols...

This is a Bug, who dares to compete with him?

Of course, many self-proclaimed artists in the industry "look down on" Shen Liang, saying that his films are all meaningless and that it is a tragedy of the cultural market that his films can sell well. Many people also say that "his films are too simple, or that it is too easy to make money from Chinese audiences!"

This kind of thinking that everyone can do it easily just because they see others succeed is essentially a lack of respect for the market and professionalism.

Since it’s so easy to make money from Chinese audiences, why don’t you make some?
Don't you want to?

Shen Liang kept his distance from these people...

For the audience, some directors make movies simply for your money, so they will do what they can, but there are some directors who not only want your money, but also want to make you sick and educate you...

The so-called sixth generation made their mark by shooting fringe subjects. They talk a lot about artistic freedom, but in fact they are only pursuing fame and fortune.

Another point is, how can these directors have the nerve to say that others are uneducated.

Those who watch the movie all have come through a mountain of books and a sea of ​​questions.

It's really speechless. The literacy campaign has allowed many mentally retarded people who couldn't even complete compulsory education to have inappropriate ideas. Just because they can read a few foreign names, they dare to call themselves intellectuals.

The biggest problem with these people is that they pretend to be cultured even though they have no culture, and they call themselves artists even though they have poor skills!

……

"Thank you everyone, the estimated revenue of "Famous" is 29 billion today..."

Shen Liang opened the live broadcast room and started broadcasting for half an hour before Rouba came back, so as to avoid being exposed by eating chicken!
"Of course I'm happy. I invested 30% in this movie, plus the actors' salaries... I can earn half!"

Then a bunch of comments came: I don’t care how much money you make, I just want to ask when will you sell goods next time?
Oh, Brother Liang sold YaYa down jackets a few days ago and made 4 million in two hours.

Mainly because of the affordable prices, Liang Ge rarely sells expensive items, and rarely sells things that people don't need, such as "a hook that can hang a child, and a butt pad that cools your butt when you sit down!"

Brother Liang never expects to make money from selling goods, all prices are sold at cost. We are not fools. In this Internet age, the prices of goods can be directly compared!
So, he sells out fast, but… the quantity is limited!
After all, it is unlikely that the manufacturer will always give you the cost price!

Another thing is that the things he sells are basically endorsed by himself...

Shen Liang obviously saw all this, and after thinking for a while he said, "The day after tomorrow, Bestore, Liuliumei and Qiaqia will join forces to hold a year-end sale..."

“…Yes, I’ve joined the crew of “Kim’s Secretary” and it will probably take at least two months to shoot…”

"Rou Ba is the heroine... There aren't many kissing scenes, mostly in the second half..."
