I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 780 Finale (13)

Hesong is really garbage!

Back then, Li Lianhua was famous for being obedient in Huayi, so, nominally, Hesong only supported obedient people...

In fact, being obedient is useless!

There is no resource to be found at all.

The project of "Lonely Boat" had been agreed upon, but was eventually taken away by Chen Duling's team.

When it comes to selecting talent in the domestic entertainment industry, people either look for pure traffic and real popularity, or they look for pure actors with both good acting skills and recognition. There is no market for those who only rely on their looks and popularity gained through brushing data.

Hesong couldn't even get Zhao Liying's film and television resources, and the two sides were quite unhappy...

By the way, I heard that Zhao Liying will not renew her contract after it expires...

Apart from some positive reviews for his guest appearance in "Life Events", Naza's performance in TV series in recent years has been a mess, including the movie "Don't Forget I Love You", which had terrible reputation and box office!
Mainly because of poor acting skills...

Act with your mouth!

This has basically become the signature skill of the new actors and actresses. Specifically, the upper half of the face is basically expressionless, the eyes are dull, and the emotions are expressed entirely through the opening and closing of the mouth.

Because they are unable to invest their emotions into the characters they play, they have to resort to exaggerated performances to prove that they have tried their best.

Naza is a typical example, staring + shaking head + acting with mouth...

To be honest, in terms of acting skills alone, she is not as good as Chu Yuxuan!

There’s nothing I can do about this, it’s probably just because I don’t have the talent!

In fact, Li Qin is also like this...

I feel like they are all imitating Lin Miaoke, shaking their heads and being pretentious...

As TV screens become larger and cameras become higher definition, that kind of exaggerated performance with flying facial features is no longer feasible.

In fact, they are all the same. The actress San Jin played in "Da Ru Zhuan", and her facial features were also flying...

Shen Liang suggested: "You are not suitable for playing silly and innocent roles. It is better for you to take on some beautiful, strong and miserable roles..."

"This kind of role is not something I can get just because I want to..."

"...That's right," Shen Liang pondered for a moment, then said, "If there's a good role in the future, I'll definitely look for you!"

"Yeah," Naza nodded with satisfaction, and remembered something: "Jackie Chan's "Legend" asked me to play the leading female role!"

"A sequel to The Myth?"

"Yes!" After a pause, Naza continued, "I heard they approached you about this movie?"

"…Yes," Shen Liang nodded: "But I don't agree!"

"What?"

"I don't like it. Tang Jili's level has dropped drastically..."

“But my role is pretty good…”

"It's useless... The movie itself is a bad movie, and the character can't be popular..."

Naza hesitated: "Then should I turn it down?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "You've already accepted it, why are you turning it down... Next time before you accept a role, you can ask for my opinion..."

Naza leaned her head against his chest and asked quietly, "Are you going to sign me?"

"…I…my company doesn't have an artist management business, and I don't plan to start one!"

"Why? Don't you know a lot of directors? You make two or three movies a year. You're perfect for promoting people!"

"Film and television production and artist management are naturally contradictory. Film and television production needs to reduce pay and costs, while artist management needs to make a profit... For example, Jin Dong's pay for "Surgeons" was 3000 million yuan, but when he took "Mr. Love", his pay was 8000 million yuan."

……

Domestic entertainment and film and television companies like to monopolize. 99% of brokerage companies are making films and television, 99% of film and television companies are signing artists, and even video websites have begun to join the "talent-grabbing team", recruiting and signing artists to provide them for content creation.

In fact, in Hollywood, the law requires that production companies and agencies must be separated.

Because the producer definitely wants the actors to be as cheap as possible and the price to be as low as possible.

The agency strives for the highest pay possible, as this will also give the company a higher commission.

Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary companies to take care of both ends. One end must account for a much higher proportion than the other end... Shen Liang is like this...

His studio doesn't sign new people!
I have no idea of ​​developing artist management business...

In fact, Yang Mi once said that after leaving Jiaxing Media, she wanted to be affiliated with Shen Liang Film Studio...

He was rejected!
As I said before: a company’s energy is limited. Since they are engaged in film and television production, they have to take care of artist management at the same time. This is too difficult. Even if they can do it, it will take up a lot of manpower and material resources...

no need!

From the very beginning, Shen Liang had no plans to expand his studio, otherwise, the company would have been renamed XX Media long ago.

Yes, Shen Liang invested in Waterdrop Brokerage...

But with only 10% of the shares...

He didn't try to help the newcomers.

For agencies, in order to get newcomers seen, two steps are usually taken.

The first step is to secure the right role for the newcomer, usually a supporting role in a major drama, which is equivalent to "testing the waters" for the new product.

Once a newcomer's "test waters" role receives good market feedback, the agency will consider following up with the second step - sparing no effort to secure subsequent leading role resources for him or her.

In other words, Shen Liang is indeed capable of promoting newcomers - just inserting a few newcomers into his works...

But, Brother Liang is too lazy to do that!
In fact, Shen Liang didn’t bother too much with that company. Those who signed the contract were basically talented actors who had their own agents!
In fact, people in the industry, like ordinary audiences, also have a "buy stocks" mentality.

If producers or creative people use an actor before he/she becomes famous, it is equivalent to spending little money to achieve a big goal, which instantly improves the cost-effectiveness of the series.

Therefore, people in the industry will also maintain the habit of watching new films. If they see actors with potential, they will hand them scripts. More powerful capital, such as platforms, will reach more long-term cooperation with the actors' agencies.

Shuidi Agency has signed many scripts with Tencent!

If an ordinary actor wants to become a resource-rich actor, he must first have a role that is noticed by the industry.

Of course, the second-generation stars and Beijing princesses who grew up with a silver spoon in their mouths are not included in this category.

The drama "Twinkle Twinkle Star" brought all the young actors of Waterdrop Agency to the stage, and they were basically noticed by the industry...

Currently, the actors have good resources...

But they are not resourceful...

According to the definition of the term: a potential stock to be a hit...

……

On January 1, Shen Liang finished filming his last scene.

According to the process, take photos, group photos, sign autographs...

He also recorded a short video and then left.

By the way, the solo movie of “Anna” has been submitted for filing. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be starred by Naza.

As for Lu Bingkun and Acai, there will be no more independent films...

The independent film of "Anna" will have some prequels to Lu Bingkun.

As for the director's choice...

To be honest, with the popularity of All or Nothing, it is impossible for Anna to earn less than 1 billion as long as it performs normally...

We’ll see when the time comes, maybe they’ll be interested in bidding for the Olympics?

"Grandma's Grandson" has been confirmed to be directed by Shen Ao, and the deal has been finalized. Shen Liang needs to do some preparatory work - learn Chaoshan dialect well, as the background of this play is Chaoshan culture!
As for the heroine, it is most likely Wu Yanshu...

For the investment of this play, Shen Liang approached Tengxun...

After clearly mentioning Chaoshan culture, Tengxun immediately agreed - Mahua Teng is a Chaoshan person...

In terms of geographical concept, Chaoshan refers to the area of ​​Jieyang, Chaozhou and Shantou in eastern Guangdong, and is not a specific region.

Back to the topic, Shen Liang flew back to BJ that day.

I have to attend the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala the next day!

You don’t have to attend the dress rehearsal, but you must attend the joint rehearsal.
