I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 719 A Busy Day (33)

I looked at the schedule, including an interview with Tencent, an interview with Popular Film, and China Film Report...

Shen Liang was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and was directly in the reception room of the hotel.

Sitting across the table from the reporter, he glanced at the outline and thought there was no problem, so he said, "We can start now."

"The box office of 'New Journey' has reached 30 billion yuan. Did you expect this before?"

"…To be honest, I really don't have any," Shen Liang paused and explained, "This theme is not popular. It is not like "Life Events". "Life Events" can easily resonate with the public. "New Journey" is satirical and very sharp... Director Liu Xunzimo was very worried at the beginning whether the box office of this topic would be less than 10 billion..."

"what do you think?"

"I think the script of New Journey is very complete, the rhythm is good, and I have worked with Director Zimo once before, and I felt pretty good about it. There is no reason not to act!"

"So do you care about the box office?"

"I still value it, but I value the film itself more. Is your story interesting? Is the role challenging? Some time ago, Director Wei Shujun gave me a copy of "The Mistake by the River". I quite liked it, but I didn't like his script. It could have been made into a Rashomon structure, but he insisted on rejecting the commercial aspect. I didn't like it..." After a pause, Shen Liang added, "If most of the audience can't understand a film, then no matter how wonderful and profound what you want to express is, it can't be considered a good film."

The reporter nodded and changed the subject: "The ratings of 'Kim's Secretary' have exceeded 2 on both channels, the number of online hits has exceeded 40 billion, and the popularity has exceeded 35000 million... It has broken the record just set by 'Storm Chasers'. What do you think of this result?"

“Thank you to the audience…”

"Many netizens want you to play a domineering CEO again. What do you think?"

"Let's talk about it later...see if there is a suitable script."

……

"Kim's Secretary" has finished airing, and both Dragon TV and Beijing TV have exceeded 2, so the annual ratings champion can be confirmed.

Shen Liang's dominance in ratings remains stable.

In terms of online broadcasting, the average number of views on both cloud platforms is 1.3 million (Cool Cloud and Cloud Hero)…

Cloud and Jijun V30 sales exceeded 1.8 million!
Surpassed "Storm Chasers"...

V30 is the number of views of each episode within 14 days after it is released. Yunhe will issue a V30 forecast days after it is released...

And it has refreshed the new list again...

Another point is that "Kim's Secretary" has 15 advertisements in a single episode, with an average of 12 advertisements per episode... setting a new record for Tencent's long video advertising placement!
This drama made a lot of actors popular...

Rouba’s reputation has also improved a lot, and its business resources have also gained several high-end endorsements.

Shen Liang… His business resources are top-notch—he has 45 endorsements, most of which are national brands, except for the global endorsement of Gucci, which is considered high-end luxury. He recently reached a cooperation with B&L and officially announced the global endorsement, which is also a breakthrough…

Of course, this has little to do with "Kim's Secretary"...

But there is no doubt that "Kim's Secretary" is a hit.

There are many famous scenes, most of which are in the workplace, such as team building. In order to pursue Jin Weixiao and become the type that Jin Weixiao likes, Li Yingjun actively participates in office dinners and team building. However, because the leader has never participated in previous activities, all subordinates are very nervous when they see Li Yingjun participating, and even feel very puzzled...

A bunch of marketing accounts popularized Jin Xiaoxiao's workplace secrets, and finally said, "Of course, we just need to learn from it, not copy it. After all, we are not meatheads!"

In addition, after the show was broadcast on Dragon TV and Beijing TV, the second-round broadcast rights were immediately bought by Hebei TV, Hubei TV, and Shenzhen TV. It was broadcast during prime time and had a pretty good viewership rating of 0.4%!
……

At 6pm, at BJ Wanda Cinema, Shen Liang and Liu Xunzimo watched the media screening of "Mozart from Outer Space" together...

Then... I felt like there was something stuck in my throat, like a thorn in my back, and like I was sitting on pins and needles.

It really sucks...

It's not even as good as "The Secret of the Magic Gourd" - "The Secret of the Magic Gourd", the magic gourd is also a toy with super powers, but the setting is "good intentions lead to bad consequences", which is very wonderful. Then Shen Liang was asked to comment, Shen Liang hesitated for a long time, and really couldn't praise it, so he directly gave the microphone to Liu Xunzimo, who praised the special effects...

It’s also hard chat!

In fact, theaters are not optimistic about "Mozart from Outer Space" and have given it a box office forecast of 3 to 5 million yuan.

You have to know that theaters are very professional in predicting box office.

After all, it’s related to the film scheduling!
However, "Mozart" still relied on its strong star lineup to attract 25% of the screenings...

After watching the movie, Shen Liang said goodbye to Chen Sicheng and returned to the hotel.

There were two more media interviews, and it was almost 10:, and they were finally finished...

No, there is also live broadcast.

I chatted with my brothers for more than an hour - and we didn't mention "Mozart from Outer Space" at all...

Not quite accurate, he just said 'This is a movie for children, it is not recommended for audiences over ten years old to buy tickets!'

In fact, the word-of-mouth of "Mozart" has already spread - in this era of mobile Internet, user word-of-mouth spreads faster and faster. It was released in the morning, and the bad word-of-mouth spread all over the country in the afternoon.

Otherwise, if "Mozart" was released on July 7th, the first day of release, "The Lone Moon" would not be announced the next day to be released on July 15th...

The focus of Shen Liang’s live broadcast was on the latest hot news—"Gentlemen of East District 8" was removed from the shelves!

"Gentlemen of East District 8" is really awesome. After it was aired, it immediately attracted complaints from netizens. The plot was unrealistic, the male actors were collectively greasy, and Zhang Han was even suspected of making sexual advances towards the actresses.

Zhang Han said that this was a sincere work that he had been preparing for five years. This sincerity was too much for netizens to bear, and they directly gave the drama a score of 5, which became the lowest score for Chinese TV dramas.

In fact, the popularity of this drama is not low.

During the week since its broadcast, the popularity of "Eastern District 8" has skyrocketed and dominated various charts.

Deeply interpreting that black and red are also red...

Moreover, compared to the popular "Kim's Secretary", making unreserved complaints about "Oil King" Zhang Han is a way to relieve stress in busy life.

First it was a hot search on Weibo, then it was mentioned by CCTV, and then Douban gave it a low score of 2.1 in the history of TV series.

As for why it was taken off the air, the official reason was "the story was fabricated, the characters had no life, they only talked about love and enjoyed their lives, such a drama should not be broadcast."

The real reason... maybe it's too bad and the officials can't stand it?
Who knows…

……

At 11 o'clock, Shen Liang took a shower and prepared to go to bed...

Then the phone rang - it was Zhao Liying!
Shen Liang was quite curious, Zhao Liying rarely contacted him...

I quickly answered the call: "...Sister Liying!"

On the other end of the phone, Zhao Liying didn't waste any words: "Are you in BJ? Can we meet?"

Shen Liang was a little confused: "Now?"

"…It's not clear over the phone. I'll come to you. Send me the address."

“…Uh, okay!”
