I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 740: Honesty (23)

In fact, the hottest topic recently is "Dream of Hualu"...

"Dream of Red Mansions" scored 8.8 points on Douban!
That's a bit of an exaggeration.

When the trailer for "Dream of Splendor" came out, many viewers thought it would be an ancient food writing routine like "Chang'an Restaurant", "Bianjing Food Record" and "Beauty Snack Shop".

Unexpectedly, entrepreneurship is a secondary plot, and the love between the male and female protagonists and the love-hate relationship between the sisters are the main plot.

The ancient costume version of "Tiny Times"...

The protagonists in "Tiny Times" always dress beautifully, never worry about living expenses, and live in big villas in the best locations in Shanghai;
The protagonists of "Dream of Hualu" are also dressed beautifully, never worrying about living expenses, and living in super luxurious villas in Bianjing...

After the problems of food, clothing, housing and transportation were solved, the small group of sisters began to fight with each other.

The Times sisters split up because of the man issue between Gu Li and Nan Xiang, and Nan Xiang left alone.

The Song sisters split up because of the man issue between Zhao Pan'er and Song Yinzhang, and Song Yinzhang left alone.

However, the screenwriter of "Dream of Red Mansions" is much smarter than Guo Jingming. He knows that the scene of Zhao Pan'er and Song Yinzhang pulling each other's hair cannot be shown directly, so Ge ​​Zhaodi alone took on the task of fighting on Zhao Pan'er's side. Because of Zhao Pan'er's character, she cannot directly talk back to Song Yinzhang, so Ge ​​Zhaodi is Zhao Pan'er's substitute, and all the words that play the good guy are said by Ge Zhaodi.

Every time Ge Zhaodi finished criticizing someone, Sanniang would have an expression that showed she clearly agreed but didn’t dare to admit it, and would tell her to “stop talking” in a gentle and non-serious way. Then Ge Zhaodi would happily continue to talk next time…

Another point is that once the sisters encounter a powerful external enemy, they quickly unite to face the outside world - this adjective comes from the Douban review of Tiny Times 3.

In "Tiny Times", Gu Li later went bankrupt, and the sisters who had been separated reunited around her.

In "Dream of Splendor", Zhao Pan'er's funding chain broke, and this tragedy brought the sisterhood together again.

I can only say that Guo Jingming suffered from the times and failed to take advantage of the popularity of Girls Help Girls...

Of course, Shen Liang would definitely not tell these things!
Moreover, Song Yinzhang's story line in Meng Hualu is really good. The courtesan who said "using beauty to seduce people is called cheap" is originally a noble and arrogant person, who thinks she can get everything with her singing voice.

Finally, the prosperity faded, the beloved was gone, and the eldest daughter married a businessman.

The changes before and after, the contrast in personality, a complete image of an oiran.

Song Yinzhang, who was well protected, said that her pipa was not for peddlers and hawkers. Later, after experiencing all kinds of hardships, in the mud of the dock, Song Yinzhang played a song attentively for real peddlers and hawkers.

With this kind of contrast, the growth of the character Song Yinzhang really stands out!
Unfortunately, the protagonist is Zhao Paner, and Liu Yifei is the lead actress...

Attracted most of the audience's attention.

Moreover, the art, props, color matching and plot rhythm of this drama are all pretty good, so it became a hit naturally!
In addition, Yang Mi starred in "Assassination of Novelist" during the same period, which was also a big hit at the box office...

Fans of both sides are fighting each other!
One said "double clean character", the other said "cost exceeded 7 million, must be loss-making!"

There were all kinds of arguments on Weibo, and even Shen Liang’s live broadcast room was flooded with fans from both sides...

Shen Liang briefly explained what he knew: "The investment promotion and overseas copyright sales of "Dream of Red Mansions" are both good. It is second only to "Kim's Secretary" and is the runner-up of Tencent Video Platform this year..."

"Our company has developed a new drama, "If the Weather Is Good, I Will Go to You," starring Liu Yifei and Zhu Yilong. The filming is almost done and it should be aired in April next year..."

"…After all, there is an age gap between her and me. If I were to star in the film, the female lead would have to be replaced…"

"Invite her for "Shushan". We'll see how it goes. We've already invited Liu Shishi. The second part should have Yang Mi and Tang Yan... Let's see how the box office performs. If it's good, we'll invite her for the third part... All four beauties from "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" will be here!"

"The Four Beauties of the World... We have gathered them all: Wallace Chung, Qiao Zhenyu, Yan Yikuan, Huo Jianhua, including Jiao Enjun and Zhang Zhiyao. We have invited all of them!"

"For a fairy tale film, it must have handsome men and beautiful women. Otherwise, what kind of fairy tale is it?"

"Now is the cold winter of the film and television industry, many actors are unemployed. "Shushan" is a big production and big IP project, and the actors are very happy to participate... The remuneration is basically symbolic... not high, so the cost of the first part is 4.5 million, of which the pure production cost is more than 4 million!"

"The current film and television environment is very bad. Cinemas are basically waiting for money to come, but investors dare not invest in movies... Every movie they invest in loses money, so who would dare to invest?"

"The main reason is the lack of funds. We can't afford to make movies in theaters. Even those with millions or tens of millions of dollars don't dare to make movies in theaters. On the other hand, stricter censorship and the fear of trial and error have led to low efficiency in content production and people are afraid to shoot...Investors are very cautious now. For example, if an investor is willing to invest in a certain movie, it was relatively easy to negotiate in the past. Now, any small change in the terms of the contract is very sensitive to investors, which may cause the failure of the entire contract negotiation." "I won't talk to you about these. The new album will be released tomorrow, so remember to listen to the new songs!"

……

In the room, Naza asked curiously, "What do you talk to them about every day?"

"what?"

“It’s just a live broadcast…”

Shen Liang was very casual: "Just chat, they ask questions, I will answer the ones that are interesting..."

"Why can't I?"

“Have you ever live streamed?”

Naza nodded: "I've done live broadcasts a few times, but my answers weren't good enough... I was always worried that I'd say the wrong thing!"

Shen Liang smiled and said: "Read more books, you will have more knowledge and confidence!"

"I...have a headache from reading."

"Well... stop talking. You did a good job marketing the role of the silly beauty in "Meng Detective"..."

Naza shook his head: "But I still want to be smart..."

Shen Liang sighed: "You have a face that looks smart... but you are so easy to deceive!"

"Yeah, yeah, that's what they all say about me!"

"Then you will be wary of others in the future. If someone praises you, you will open your heart to them...they must have some intentions towards you!"

"Yeah," Naza nodded, then remembered something: "When you first met me, you often praised me. Is there any intention?"

"What do you think?"

Naza turned over and stared into his eyes: "What's your intention?"

Liang Ge was very frank: "It's very simple, just sleep with you!"

“…Is that the only reason?”

"Do you have any other ideas?"

Naza was unconvinced: "I'm very rich!"

Shen Liang waved his hands: "... like who has no money..."

"Then...what is our relationship?"

"What's wrong? Do you want a formal status?"

“…No, I just feel awkward…”

"I've told you before that we need each other. Life in this world is just a few decades. The prosperity is fleeting, and fame and fortune are like clouds and smoke. Time is like flowing water, and it will never come back... Why should we let the world limit ourselves? The brave ones enjoy the world first!"

Well, Brother Liang is frank now!
If you accept, then continue, if not...

It doesn’t matter. Brother Liang won’t make any promises anyway!
