I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 839 Actors Carry Box Office

Brother Liang never relies on others for free!

He doesn't rely on women for a living...

He has his own resources!
Make your own cake...

Most of the young actors are different. For example: Yu Shi...

For a little resource, one against four!

The child really wants to improve.

It can also be seen that the competition in the industry is fierce now. In order to get some resources, it is almost transformed into shared bicycles!

Zhang Yuqi...is indeed a bit tasteless.

When she was young, she fell in love with an old man. Now she is looking for a young lover. She is a person who has exploited her body to the extreme in the entertainment industry...

No, she should be very clear that if the young hunk in the circle is dating an older sister, if it’s not for the connections and resources she has, could it be true love?

Do you really love their faces that are filled with hyaluronic acid and look terrible even without makeup?

In the same way, if an older sister is dating a young hunk who's new to the industry, isn't she also going for his youthful and strong body, exchanging her own connections and resources for it?

Once the gender is changed, how big is the essential difference between this and a greasy old man supporting a young girl?

I can't figure it out, can what happened in Juan be called cheating?

Who are you looking down on? If you like someone today, you can be together. If you don’t like someone tomorrow, you can break up…

This incident sparked a huge discussion.

Back to Brother Liang...

If the young lady is willing to give him a gift, it is unlikely that he will refuse to accept it...

I just don't really care...

Shen Liang remembered something and said, "I watched a few episodes of "Snow Eagle Lord" a few days ago..."

Naza immediately asked: "…Is my acting bad?"

"I didn't really look at it...it's not good."

"That's also an S-level production!"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "…produced by Siba Films, with bad and cheap makeup and blurry filters, it feels a bit like a work from more than ten years ago, yes, Lai Shuiqing's "The Lost City in Snow"…"

Naza pouted and muttered in dissatisfaction: "...I haven't heard of it..."

"If you want to act in a puppet show, it's best to cooperate with some good film and television companies..."

"No one is looking for me!"

"Then you should take the initiative..."

"You want me to accompany them?"

Shen Liang was speechless: "Sister... you are a famous female star, you are good-looking, and your pay is not high. You play in an S-level ancient puppet drama, and you have to accompany drinking? What have you experienced in Hesong?"

“…our boss…”

"Li Lianhua inherited the bad things from Huayi... and used them on you. I'm really impressed! What era is this? You're still socializing at dinner parties..."

"Then how do you discuss cooperation?"

"It's very simple. We take the script, project expectations and trailers to the platform for discussion. If the platform finds it credible, we will do it together..."

“What if the platform is unwilling to pay?”

"Then change the platform. Pale Fire and Ancient Love Song are both broadcast on Youku. There is also a new drama, Farming Notes, which will also be broadcast on Youku!"

"That's you... who else would dare?"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "Content producers should have the right to choose. There are so many platforms, so which one does it matter?"

...Traditional movie giants are collectively absent from this summer season!

The five major private film and television companies include Huayi Brothers, Bona Film Group, Enlight Media, Wanda Film and Television, and LeTV Pictures.

Leshi has basically closed down, and now Hengdian and Lianrui Films have emerged as new forces...

But who is the fifth one has not been decided yet!
In the post-epidemic era, the creative team has gradually taken control of content production.

Chen Shengqi, the major shareholder of Yitong Chuanqi, the producer of "She Vanished", is the father of the film's producer Chen Sicheng;
The four producers of "In the Octagonal Cage" except Maoyan Microfilm Culture, BJ Lekaihua Film, Tumushuke Sunflower Film and Wuxi Baotang Film are actually controlled by the film director Wang Baoqiang and his sister;

The same is true for Shen Liang’s movies. The main producer of “Shushan” is Shen Liang Studio, followed by China Film Group, Penguin Pictures, Lu Yang’s Freedom Cool Whale, and special effects company Sunglasses Tianhe…

There are 33 co-producers...

Almost all the domestic large-scale film companies are included...

Many joint productions are just in name only!

The investment share is not even 2%...

Traditional film and television companies are absent from the summer season...

In fact, they are not absent. Wanda, Guangguang, and Bona all have their own works in the summer season. Wanda has a romantic film "Countdown to Love You", Guangguang has two films, "Tea No. 2 Middle School" and "I Have Experienced the Storm", and Bona also has "Don't Call Me God of Gamblers"...

It’s just that the box office and word of mouth were not good, and there was not much response!

"She Vanished" grossed 48 billion, "The Octagonal Cage" exceeded 20 billion, "15 Miles in Chang'an" also exceeded 14 billion, and "Shu Mountain" was released for only 38 days, and the cumulative box office exceeded billion...

Four blockbusters... and one more "All or Nothing" waiting to be released...

The three producers of "All or Nothing", Bad Monkey and Fang Yuye Cultural Media Co., Ltd., have their controlling shareholders respectively as the film's producer Ning Hao, director Shen Ao, and Shen Liang Studio...

There are basically no traditional film and television companies!
This is normal, content is the primary productive force in the film market.

Excellent film works can attract users, build word of mouth, and drive the works to become hits.

Many film and television companies do not have the ability to produce movies, they are more like investment companies!

Investment companies…

In the past, the circle was closed and everyone preferred to find acquaintances. After the Internet came into being, everyone's thinking became more open...

Who is not looking for money?
In the film and television industry, the most core resource is still an excellent creative team.

……

The quality of "Megalodon 2" is really not good...

It earned 1.5 million yuan on the first day, but on the second day, it was surpassed by "Shushan" - the latter earned 1.7 million yuan in a single day, while "The Meg 2" only earned 1.2 million yuan...

It turns out that there is no such thing as anti-box office.

The so-called "single-anti box office" is just a marketing rhetoric.

No movie star in the world has this ability because it doesn't exist.

Movies are complex business ventures. Whether they are profitable or not is not determined by a single star.

However, a lot of people online, especially Shen Liang’s fans, worked hard to promote the news that Shen Liang’s total box office exceeded 600 billion...

Of course, this is true!
Excluding guest roles, the total box office of movies he starred in did break 600 billion.

So much so that at the preview of "All or Nothing", a reporter asked this question: "Brother Liang, what do you think about actors carrying the box office?"

Shen Liang pondered for a moment: "Actors who can carry the box office are basically actors in genre films. In the early Hong Kong film market, there was a saying that there were two Zhous and one Cheng...

They are all considered genre film actors!
The mainland market is too big. We can only say that actors are responsible for the box office. In the current Chinese market, this is just a guarantee. A big enough cast will usually schedule the film a little higher in the first three days so that it doesn’t end up being a total bust. But the box office situation depends more on the film itself!”

"I read a passage a few days ago and I think it makes a lot of sense: for the audience, actors are functional, and only when they satisfy the viewing needs can the movie be sold at the box office. In a country with a large population and strong spending power, it is difficult for the entire population to be fans of a certain actor, so the audience still has the final say. The key to an actor's box office success lies in satisfying the functional needs, not the actor himself."

"Then your total box office exceeds 600 billion..."

"It must be that my personal aesthetic is close to the public aesthetic..."
