I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 701 Showing Talent (13)

Shen Teng is really a magical actor who has his own sense of variety shows or his own sense of humor.

Some people say that he has produced too few films since "Charlotte"...

Indeed, after "Charlotte", he has played the leading role in only a few movies, including "A Thought in Heaven", "The Richest Man in Xihong City", "Flying Life" and then "The Moon Walks Alone"...

"Crazy Alien" has two male protagonists, including "Man Jiang Hong". Although he ranks first, his role is less than that of Si Zi, and he was killed off early before the villain died, so he can be regarded as a supporting role!
However, he has appeared in many variety shows and has been a regular on 14 of them.

The actor's peak period was almost entirely spent on variety shows...

But it's amazing that his behavior completely goes against the so-called common sense that actors should not frequently appear in variety shows.

No matter how awkward the jokes are, he can still make the audience laugh just by his face and eyes.

If the protagonist of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was changed, to Bao Beier, for example, it would definitely be criticized as a bad movie!

Shen Teng has done it miraculously: he is himself in variety shows and he is also himself in movies, and appearing on variety shows has no effect on the box office appeal of his movies.

Among the six Mesozoic eras, only Wu Jing can be compared with him.

“MORE VFX also created the special effects for The Moon Walks Alone… I also asked them to work on The Cang Lan Jue and The Shu Shan I’m shooting now!”

Rouba interrupted: "'Cang Lan Jue'? A TV series?"

"Are they also being approached for TV series?"

Shen Liang explained: "When they were making "Shushan", they built a bunch of templates, all of which were fairyland and demon world with oriental aesthetics... They just happened to be able to use them. Moreover, "Cang Lan Jue" is an ancient idol fairy tale type, which can be regarded as opening up a new path for them..."

"The Shu Mountain hasn't been filmed yet?"

“Filming starts at the end of August…”

As they were talking, they saw Huang Lei coming over with a plate of cleaned suckling pig.

“…Not baked?”

“…Let’s bake it ourselves!”

Shen Liang glanced at the director team, then said, "Rou Ba doesn't eat pork, can we change to a sheep?"

"It's okay with me," Rouba said quickly, "You guys eat it..."

"I don't like roast suckling pig either... there's too much fat on it, I can't eat it!"

Shen Teng interrupted: "Like me, as long as my tongue feels it, I get goose bumps all over my body..."

"right…"

The director asked, "Roast lamb?"

"No?"

"Yes, I'll go buy one right away..."

"And bring some extra cumin and chili powder!"

Huang Lei frowned: "What about this pig?"

"Put it in the fridge, and bake it for the next guests who come over!"

"also"

……

In the kitchen, Shen Liang was preparing the marinating ingredients, and said to Huang Lei, "Roasting lamb is much easier than roasting suckling pig. Roasting lamb only needs one to two hours of marinating, and the flavor will be almost absorbed. Roasting suckling pig is not the same, it needs at least a day of marinating... The production team directly gave us a live pig, and only half a day, so the marinating will not be absorbed... It will also have a fishy smell when it is roasted... It won't taste good!"

"You know a lot about this?"

"I started learning cooking in middle school. I'm good at roasting suckling pig and roasting whole lamb!"

“…Let’s try the skills of the state banquet chef today!”

"No, I only learned the basics from my master, and I haven't done it for a long time..."

Having said that, Shen Liang quickly mixed salt, pepper, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and other seasonings to make the marinade...

After waiting for a while, the program team brought two sheep, both alive!
Shen Liang was speechless: "...You guys are too bad, at least handle it properly..."

He Jiong and Mary also said, "Yes, these two are so cute!"

"Yes, let's not eat today!"

"Haha," Shen Liang couldn't help laughing.

"What's wrong?"

"I remember watching a program before, where Mr. Dou Wentao participated in "Twenty Thousand Miles in the Desert", and the herdsmen were going to treat the program crew with a lamb.

Teacher Dou was very compassionate to the poor lamb from the beginning, and tried to persuade the herders to stop slaughtering the lamb several times. She even almost cried at the scene of slaughtering the lamb, and kept saying words like "heartache" and "poor". Then, after eating the lamb, Teacher Dou ate it with great relish, and finally praised it as "very delicious"... I hope Teacher He will eat less later! " "I won't eat it..."

Huang Lei asked Shen Liang: "Can you handle sheep?"

Shen Liang glanced at the camera that was following him and said, "Yes, it will happen, but it's quite cruel. You guys should stop filming..."

……

About half an hour later, Shen Liang finished processing the food, washed his hands, turned around and asked Teacher He: "What should we do now?"

"Not roasting?"

“Marinate for an hour first…”

"Then let's go pick some vegetables..."

"Okay."

When Shen Liang came back, he saw Shen Teng sitting on the stairs playing guitar...

Liang Ge was a little surprised, "Oh, Uncle Shen can also play the guitar?"

"Tsk, who doesn't know how to play a musical instrument?"

Shen Teng plucked the strings, and the sound came. Shen Liang felt something was wrong the moment he heard it - the sound of the strings being plucked did not match the sound produced...

After waiting for a while, the sound of a violin came in. Shen Liang couldn't help but said, "...Uncle Shen, your guitar also has the sound of a violin?"

"Violin?"

Shen Teng took out his phone with an innocent look on his face, then said with an annoyed look: "I should have searched for guitar solos!"

Mary burst out laughing: "…You are acting again!"

He Jiong: "As expected of a billion-dollar box office actor, I didn't see any flaws!"

Shen Liang also interjected: "When Brother Teng was filming "Charlotte", he should have learned guitar for a while, right?"

"No, I can only strum a few strings... Come on, aren't you a musical talent?"

"OK…"

Shen Liang climbed up the stairs, took the guitar, and played "Those Flowers"...

After playing three sentences, he remembered something: "The copyright fee for Mr. Pu Shu is quite expensive, right?"

"…It's just one song of his, how much can it cost? Just play it, I'll give it to you!"

Shen Liang approached Shen Teng: "Brother, at least six figures!"

"It's so expensive... Then let's change it! You have so many songs, just play any one!"

"…good!"

Shen Liang stood up and played the prelude to "Summer Soseki"
Shen Teng frowned, thought for a long time, and then said: "This song is so familiar to me, I feel like I have heard it somewhere before!"

"Summer Soseki, a song from 2018, I put it in my second EP. Many people said it was just for show. It wasn't very popular at the time, but recently this song is everywhere on TikTok..."

“…Then sing!”

"I'll sing right away..."

Then Shen Liang listened to the interlude, played it again, and immediately started to sing 'Upset Cold wet I just gonna feel alright…'

Shen Teng listened for a long time, then wondered: "Is this an English song?"

"…Yes."

“How did you write an English song?”

“…The style of this song is British slow rock with a little jazz style…”

Shen Teng immediately shook his head: "I don't understand!"

"Then I'll change to another one..."

Liang Ge immediately changed to the 1345 chord, and then sang "~ My heart, my heart, the whole building is rented out, everywhere is for you, planted flowers~"

When he finished singing, a group of people applauded. Mary asked Shen Teng, "Have you heard this song, Brother Teng?"

"No...but it sounds nice!"

Shen Liang explained: "This song is called "Flowers", and it hasn't been released yet... But when we were filming "New Journey", Director Zimo liked it very much and insisted on using it as a promotional song... I guess it will be online soon!"
