I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 637 I’m also having a hard time (34)

"If you play the leading man, I'll play it!"

"Just kidding..." Shen Liang realized that he didn't scare her, so he immediately changed his words: "Our company doesn't have any plans for productions at the moment... There are only two movies and a TV series scheduled to start filming... I've already told you about the movies..."

Rouba: "What about the TV series?"

"It's called Twinkle Twinkle Star, it's a bit like Miss You, and we've already found Zhao Jinmai to star in it!"

"Why are you so nice to her?"

"She's suitable. She's perfect in age, appearance, and acting skills!"

"You play the leading male role?"

"I don't act... I'm just a producer!"

"Do you like her?"

Shen Liang was speechless: "Are you mentally ill? When I met her, she was only 15 years old. We filmed "The Wandering Earth" together. The little girl suffered a lot with us... Besides, don't you know what kind of person I like?"

"What kind do you like?"

"Anyone over 1.7 meters tall, like you...feminine!"

"You just know how to coax me!"

"I am so wronged. Can't I just tell the truth these days?"

"... Hum..." Rouba rolled his eyes at him and asked, "What about the Cang Lan Jue?"

Shen Liang: "Oh, that's the drama that iQiyi asked me to film... I just happened to want to act in an ancient idol drama, so I took it!"

"Isn't that play suitable for me?"

"…I don't dare to film a drama with you even if it's suitable!"

"why?"

"You have to consider the schedule... A drama takes at least two months. After "Kim's Secretary", we will shoot "New Journey". After "New Journey", I will join the crew of "Cang Lan Jue", which will take at least until June..."

Rouba interrupted him: "So? Are you annoying me?"

Liang Ge counted on his fingers and said, "You count for seven months... three times a day, even if I'm made of iron, I can't stand this!"

Rouba was a little embarrassed, but couldn't help but retort: ​​"You are the one who teases me every day!"

"Lower your voice!" Shen Liang made a downward gesture, and then said: "I have to get you in shape, otherwise, you will look dull and tired every day, which is uncomfortable to look at..."

Rouba was surprised: "My eyes are dull?"

"What do you think? Don't you even read the comments?"

Shen Liang opened his phone and searched for "Rouba's status" and immediately got the answer. He showed it to Rouba, who whispered, "…She is beautiful, but her eyes are becoming more and more empty. Eyes are the windows to the soul, and they can convey emotions even when they are tired and exhausted. But in recent years, especially this year, Rouba's eyes have lost their tiredness, and are only confused..."

Shen Liang said: "But in this play, your eyes are lively and energetic, and you are full of energy every day. What do you think is the reason?"

"Did I sleep well? Did I eat well?"

"Yes... I deserve at least half of the credit for your being able to relax like this... All my hard work is out of responsibility to art!"

Rouba was silent for a while, as if he had thought of something, and rolled his eyes at him: "...You are so shameless!"

"what happened again?"

"So if you put it on my face and in my mouth, is that also a responsibility to art?"

“Oh, that’s taking responsibility for life!”

"Pooh!"

Shen Liang looked at her and thought about asking for leave... to take a day or two to relax!

Although he is very strong, he is not a professional player after all...

Then the director came over and asked: "What are you talking about?"

Shen Liang immediately said: "Yes, director, can we shoot now?"

"Um…"

"Okay... Sister Rouba, we can start filming!"

"it is good!"

Rouba is concise and to the point, with a cool goddess style...

……

When "The Beginning" was broadcast, "Ace Force" was broadcast for seven days!
"Ace Troops", an iQiyi S+ series, cost over 3.5 million yuan.

In today’s film and television drama market, the cost of producing a drama exceeds 200 million yuan, even for an S+ top drama.

Under the influence of the main theme, the key projects of the competent departments are divided up by a few leading companies every year.

For example, the anti-epidemic dramas "Together" and "Meritorious Service" have a high concentration of top resources!
By the way: CCTV’s purchasing price has always been low, so why are many dramas willing to be broadcast on CCTV?

Because the series is broadcast on CCTV, there is no need to worry about the ratings, and the payment is faster. Basically, after the series is broadcast, the payment will be settled in one lump sum...

Some second- and third-tier satellite TV stations not only delay payments seriously, but also hold back on dramas and are slow to schedule releases. But no matter how low the price CCTV offers, it will give you a clear answer.

In addition, the price on paper is not the final price.

The TV station will tell the film company that due to changes in the market environment, the price previously signed is no longer suitable, and they have to sign a supplementary agreement to reduce the price. If the film company does not sign, the TV station may keep the drama and not broadcast it, and if it does not broadcast it, the film company will not get paid.

Moreover, affected by policies, the time slots that satellite TV stations can provide for market-oriented dramas are getting smaller and smaller. The General Administration's control over satellite TV stations has been specific to the arrangement of drama programs. What dramas will be broadcast at each node is arranged one year in advance, and other dramas cannot be broadcast at all.

Some mainstream projects, such as "Stones Bloom", are even broadcast simultaneously on the five major first-tier satellite TV stations and Guangdong Satellite TV, without being restricted by the "one drama, two stars" rule.

Of course, the dramas starring Shen Liang have always been top dramas, and the real top platforms will still spend a lot of money to compete for them!

Last year, the show with the best performance was "Lotus Tower": 300 million yuan per episode each for the two major satellite TV stations, 300 million yuan per episode for Tencent Video, 280 million yuan per episode for Youku, and 270 million yuan per episode for iQiyi, for a total of 1450 million per episode. The copyright income was approximately 1450 million x 40 = 5.8 million yuan.

The subsequent second-round copyrights, third-round copyrights + overseas copyrights brought in nearly 200 million yuan in revenue!
"Storm Chasers" has not yet been aired, but currently, CCTV-100's prime time bid is over million yuan per episode - this is their standard!

Tencent offered 700 million yuan per episode to buy out the new media copyright...

The cost of "Storm Chasers" was only 2.5 million yuan - Shen Liang's salary for the series will not exceed 20% of the total cost. Of course, he can participate in the copyright profit sharing, about 20%...

Back to "Ace Troops", iQiyi paid 4 million for the exclusive broadcast rights...

Sometimes I really wonder if those in charge of purchasing have taken kickbacks!
You spent 400 million on a drama like "Ace Troops"?

How many members do you have to exploit to get the 4 million?

As a member, I can increase your membership by 100 yuan per year.

That’s 400 million members!

400 million members' money to support a drama starring a young actor? And it's a crappy movie that humiliates soldiers!
Oh, in the original time and space, the data and popularity of "Ace Force" were not very high. Whether it was Cloud and Data, Cool Cloud Data, or Detawin Data, none of them made it into the top 20 of the annual list...

I haven’t even played “Special Warfare Glory”!
So, it’s normal that I can’t beat “Beginning”…

If the two were evenly matched, fans would most likely be dissatisfied and say that "The Beginning" relied entirely on marketing, but... the gap is too big, and it was crushed in terms of both word of mouth and data.

How do you do it?
Go to Douban to give it one star?
Shen Liang’s national popularity is here!
By the way, after the broadcast of "Beginning", several major TV stations bought the afternoon slot...

This is normal. "The Beginning" is about time loops and is unlikely to be broadcast during prime time.
