I didn't want to be an actor
Chapter 218 Schedule Conflict (13)
This is true. In terms of age, Shen Liang is indeed very suitable for youth films...
The problem is...what's the use?
The big wave of domestic youth films has ended!
After all, it's too bad. The plot framework is basically fixed: the heroine transfers to another school, is alone, is noticed by the other party, gets to know each other, gets together, is known by parents, gets a room, has an abortion, breaks up, goes abroad, goes to college, remains single after work, and meets each other a few years later... sighing that they missed each other...
This kind of routine, who can stand it?
So, it was soon labeled as a bad movie - domestic youth films are equal to bad movies!
Even if the model of no abortion, no youth was abandoned later, it is still difficult to sell.
The reason is nothing more than that the audience's good impression of the youth film genre has been consumed by a bunch of bad movies.
No matter how good your quality is, the audience will stay away from it.
The market feedback is very real, and the investors are even more real - most investors have the attribute of "profiteering", respecting the box office and supplementing art, and shooting whatever is popular.
Since youth films are not selling well, then don't invest!
Of course, Shen Liang still receives many invitations to youth-themed movies - after all, his age is indeed suitable.
What?
No investment?
As long as Shen Liang joins, someone will definitely invest. Although investors look at the subject matter, they look at the person more.
Shen Liang sighed: "The youth films that I am mainly looking for are quite boring..."
"Boring?"
"Deliberately sensational, formulaic plots..." After thinking for a while, he asked back: "Why? Are there any youth films looking for you?"
"No..." Li Qin shook her head, and then remembered something: "I filmed one before, but it has not been released yet!"
"Oh? What's it called?"
"Shut Up! Love, a Sino-Korean co-production..."
Before she finished speaking, Shen Liang was already laughing - what a shitty title!
Li Qin was so angry that she threw a pillow over: "... Co-productions are all like this... Don't laugh."
"...Haha..."
Shen Liang was still laughing and couldn't stop at all...
"...I'm leaving."
Li Qin rolled her eyes and got up.
"Okay, I won't laugh anymore..." Shen Liang tried to recover and asked, "How's your practice for "If You're Here"?"
"...I think it's OK..."
"I believe you...When the champion night of "Singer", we'll sing together..."
Li Qin immediately got nervous: "Ah? You're going to sing "If You're Here" with me on the champion night..."
"...I'll sing "Slow Song"...Don't worry, I've designed the stage..."
"How can I be assured? That's the final of "Singer"..."
Shen Liang comforted: "Think positively, maybe I'll be eliminated in the next episode!"
"Really?"
"You're overthinking. Next time I'm going to sing "A Man Should Be Self-reliant" + "Chinese Military Spirit", at least I'll be in the top three...If The program team is awesome. They really invited teachers Li Youbin and Zhang Guangbei to come. It's possible to get the first place..."
"...Then you said you might be eliminated?"
"I'm just relieving pressure..." Shen Liang explained with a smile, and asked by the way: "Didn't you perform on the Spring Festival Gala?"
Li Qin was anxious: "When did I perform on the Spring Festival Gala? I participated in the CCTV New Year's Eve!"
"It's the same, but you can't lip-sync this time...Keep going, I'm rooting for you!"
...
"I'm Waiting for You in the Future" is a youth film jointly produced by iQiyi and Guangguang. Originally, they planned to invite Hu Xianxu to play the male lead, but he was preparing for the college entrance examination and declined the invitation...
Li Guangjie recommended Shen Liang as a substitute.
Several major producers agreed without thinking!
On the one hand, Shen Liang is very popular, and on the other hand, his age is also quite suitable...
But...producer Liu Tong was a little hesitant, because...Shen Liang is too handsome, sunny and confident, and he is very different from the Liu Dazhi he imagined!
The Liu Dazhi he imagined couldn't be so handsome!
And... "I'm Waiting for You in the Future", he was going to make it well - the shooting period was set to 6 months!
It was going to be shot in his hometown Chenzhou...
Chenzhou is definitely not suitable for shooting the scenes in 1998 - it's been 20 years!
So, a lot of art work is needed to recreate the past...
Also, Chenzhou is very inconvenient. All the staff and actors can only take the high-speed rail for a long time, and Chenzhou does not have a large studio for photographic equipment and scenery. Many things have to be shipped from Guangzhou.
There is not even a hotel that can accommodate actors and crew members at the same time.
But in order to make the restoration higher, Liu Tong insisted on shooting in Chenzhou.
Oh, Liu Tong came to Xiangshan with the director, met Shen Liang, and objectively described the situation of the play "I'm Waiting for You in the Future"...
Shen Liang likes Liu Tong very much. How to say it, Liu Tong's parents are both doctors, and there is no way to help him in literature or media. A Hunanese with no foundation has actually become the vice president of Guangguang, and he is doing a good job!
Such people are worthy of admiration.
Shen Liang listened carefully and interjected from time to time...
"I'll Wait for You in the Future" describes the troubles of youth and the regrets of growing up from two different perspectives: "experiencing" at the age of 17 and "looking back" at the age of 37.
Shen Liang roughly studied the character of Liu Dazhi. He is naive and does things without considering the consequences, but he is very loyal and cheerful...
This role is not difficult to grasp.
"You don't need to tell me this..." Shen Liang waved his hand: "Just tell me when to join the group for filming."
"...It should start in July..."
July...
Shen Liang calculated that "Joy of Life" will be finished at the end of July...
After coordination, it should be in time. Just as he was about to nod, Liu Tong said: "Shoot until December!"
"What?"
Before Shen Liang spoke, Chen Jiadong on the side said: "Five months to shoot a campus youth film? Are you going to shoot "The Chorus" or "Dead Poets Society"? "
"The Chorus" and "Dead Poets Society" are classic campus-themed movies, ceiling level.
"Don't say that..." Shen Liang glared at him, and then said to Liu Tong: "Five months is too long...Does a youth campus drama need such a long shooting cycle?"
Director Xue Ling said: "...Except for you, we plan to use newcomers for most roles..."
Shen Liang hesitated: "...This..."
Five months spent on a campus youth drama, the time cost is too high!
Chen Jiadong interrupted again: "Li Guangjie didn't say this before, he just said the script is good..."
Shen Liang told the truth: "The script is indeed good... but I really can't spare five months... After "Celebrating Yu Nian", I still have a movie and a web drama waiting to be filmed!"
"Then how long can you give at most?"
Shen Liang calculated, and then said: "Two months... If we squeeze in, two and a half months should be no problem!"
Liu Tong sighed: "That's definitely not enough... We plan to shoot in Chenzhou for five months..."
"... It's really not possible, I definitely can't spare the time."
Then... I can only regret it!
Although no cooperation was reached... but the two sides still had a very pleasant chat.
Having a meal together...
At the table, Liu Tong asked Shen Liang if he knew any actors and recommended them. Shen Liang thought about it and said: "I think Mao Buyi can do it!"
Liu Tong obviously knew Mao Buyi and shook his head: "No, he gets nervous even when shooting a magazine."
Well, Mao Buyi is indeed not suitable for acting, he gets nervous too easily...
He feels uncomfortable even when doing a variety show!
"...I rarely hang out in the industry, and I'm not familiar with most of the actors...You'd better find one yourself."
