I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 71 Stealing the Spotlight

In fact, at the beginning, Shen Liang was hostile to this group of people...

A group of southern barbarians came to our continent to beg for food!

Then just be honest.

But... seeing how hard they work, I can't help but admire them a little...

The only reason to notify artists is to make a living!

Besides, they are quite pitiful... they are already old.

It can be seen that they are trying to please "Mars"...

Think about it a few years ago, when Wanwan artists came to the mainland, they were like the moon surrounded by stars. Now, Wanwan’s variety shows are in a slump, and many Wanwan artists are really very careful to maintain this resource when they come to the mainland. It’s also a pity...

I heard that Zhao Zhengping was asked for advice by many young Taiwanese variety show actors, hoping that he could help introduce them to mainland China's announcements. Some even said that they would not accept money, but just wanted an opportunity.

Zhao Zhengping would immediately burst the young generation's fantasy: "There are so many entertainers in the mainland that they can't absorb them all. How could they look for you? This is not 20 years ago. Even if there is production funding, the first thing they think of is still those celebrities, and the second is to look for second-tier ones..."

On second thought, there are still two years at most, and with policy changes, it would be unlikely for these people to go north even if they wanted to!

Forget it…

However, letting it go does not mean giving up the glory!
After all, this is "Mars", why should the Kangxi Gang shine?
Wang Han probably had the same idea, so when he heard Shen Liang's question, he quickly responded: "Yes, ask the juniors what kind of seniors they like. Shen Liang, you speak first!"

"I like seniors who don't have so many problems!"

"thing?"

"They just like to show off and make sense... Common phrases include 'I tell you...', 'You tell me...' and 'our era'..." At this point, Shen Liang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Different eras have different rules. To be disrespectful, many of our predecessors caught up with the best 20 years of Chinese entertainment development. Most of them who did well enjoyed the dividends of the era, of course, they also had to add their own efforts and opportunities, but now the era has changed..."

"Especially those actors who have no acting skills but are older and have more experience. I call them Mesozoic traffic!

The biggest difference between middle-aged traffic and young traffic is that young people are responsible for making money and being scolded, while middle-aged traffic makes money while pretending to be conscientious actors and veteran actors... They always look distressed about the current state of the industry, and from time to time they have to teach young actors how to be human... There is no way, now young artists have traffic and original sin, scolding them has become politically correct, and they are dragged out and scolded whenever there is something wrong!"

Wang Han smacked his lips: "…You hit a lot of people with this stick!"

Shen Liang: "I'm just speaking my mind... I'm also considered a young celebrity, so they can scold us and not let us talk back? That doesn't make sense!"

Yang Di smiled and said, "Who do you want to talk about? Do you dare to tell me his name?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "Then I can't say... Many of them have completed the transformation from workers to bosses, and have become the ones who support the stars..."

"Ahem," Wang Han did not continue the topic and turned to look at Yang Di: "What kind of senior does Yang Di like?"

"Those with a sense of humor...those who are curious about the world...for example, Professor Fang Qingzhuo and Professor Dai Jingrong, they are the most interesting seniors I have ever met..."

Chen Weimin interjected: "When we first debuted, it was also quite difficult..."

"At that time, I needed my big brother to take me to the show!"

"Without the big brother's protection, you are not considered to be in the circle..."

Shen Liang immediately said, "I've read some information. Taiwan has more than a hundred TV stations, and a large number of variety shows require a large number of guests to appear on the show. This has spawned a group of artists who make a living on the show, responsible for creating atmosphere and outputting content. Most of them are consumable content output: consuming personal life, consuming personal talent, consuming personal image..."

Cao Xiping nodded: "Yes, the artists in the announcement are usually B-list or C-list... they are responsible for setting off the main star!"

"We lack professional variety show stars here," Shen Liang continued, "So, I suggest that Long Danny organize a program called "Interesting People" to find variety show stars who are interested in variety shows... The three major platforms produce a lot of variety shows every year, and this market is huge..."

Yang Di immediately asked: "Did Mr. Long agree?" "No..."

"Then what's the use of this?"

Shen Liang chuckled: "...My assistant told me that as long as I mention Long Danny, the scene will never be cut! I mentioned him twice in this episode, so I have to take two shots at least!"

"Do you need a lens?"

Shen Liang took it for granted: "One episode is 70 minutes at most. After cutting out the skits, product placements, etc., there are still 50 minutes left... 50 minutes, the opening introduction takes up 10 minutes. In addition, this episode must give at least five minutes of close-up shots to Mr. Cai Kangyong and Han Ge, and another 15 minutes of close-up shots of the Kangxi Gang brought by Mr. Cai Kangyong... In other words, we can only fight for 20 minutes... 20 minutes, divided among the six of us... Then I must tell some stories that cannot be cut out, otherwise, it will become Xue Fu... Two Xue Fus appearing in one program? Can you imagine?"

Qian Feng stood up and said, "I feel like you keep mentioning Xue Fu in this episode. What's the matter? Do you have any feelings for her?"

Shen Liang asked Yang Di: "Can I tell you the reason?"

Yang Di was confused: "You tell me..."

Shen Liang slammed the table, stood up, and said angrily: "...I just heard them say that Xue Fu's salary for one episode...is ten times higher than mine, ten times! I work so hard for this show...you are going too far! Brother Wei, aren't you one of my own? How can you treat your own people like this?"

The scene was a bit cold, and then the director of "Mars", Hu Ming, stood up and said, "I'll let you sing later, and I'll ask them not to cut it out!
Shen Liang immediately said: "Okay, I won't steal the spotlight anymore, you guys can do whatever you want!"

Qian Feng was dissatisfied again: "…If you want to promote the song, you can just say it directly, why do you have to drag Xue Fu down?"

"She's just a vase, who can I say anything?"

Yang Di was more concerned about the "remuneration" Shen Liang mentioned: "Is Xue Fu's remuneration really ten times yours?"

Shen Liang casually revealed: "I saw a report saying that her remuneration was 150 million per period..."

Shen Mengchen jumped up directly: "150 million!"

"It's too much!"

"Is that so?"

Guo Xuefu was so scared that she quickly waved her hands: "Not that much, how could there be that much, it's all nonsense!"

Yang Di was speechless: "Where did you see the report?"

"Then don't worry about it..." Shen Liang looked at Guo Xuefu expectantly: "Sister Xuefu, are you really going to give 150 million per issue?"

"No...really not!"

Shen Liang looked disgusted: "I almost fell in love with you, what a bummer..."

Liu Wei continued: "Are you in love with her or with her worth?"

"What's the difference? I have only one motto in life: to make money, to make money legally and reasonably..."

"Okay," Wang Han couldn't help but come out to advance the process: "Brother Weimin, do you have anything to say?"

Almost all the shots were taken by Shen Liang...

By the way, Yang Di, Liu Wei, Qian Feng and Shen Mengchen all performed well...

Wang Han was actually very satisfied, but... this episode is mainly about bickering with the Kangxi Gang, and we can’t just let our own people perform!
