I didn't want to be an actor

"Are you ready to make a comeback?"

"Yes."

"Prepare to act in a costume drama"

"Yes!"

"Come on..."

Shen Liang picked up the cup and took a sip to ease the embarrassment...

Liu Shishi was very used to this kind of atmosphere and asked, "How do you choose a script?"

"First look at the type of script, then look at the logic of the script, whether the story and the plot can impress me..." Shen Liang shrugged: "Basically that's it!"

"What about movie scripts?"

"The logic is similar, but for someone like me who has made a name for myself, I can't avoid receiving favors from others. There are some faces you can't help but give, and some debts of favor you can't help but repay, so some scripts can't be rejected. At this time, try to understand the logic of the script as much as possible, the logic of the characters, including the personality, emotional lines, and career lines, grasp the core of the characters, and Magnify it into the performance..."

Liu Shishi was curious: "Are there times when you can't refuse?"

"I couldn't refuse "Feng Bao" and "Changjin Lake"..."

Liu Shishi nodded and said: "My previous acting jobs were arranged by the company..."

"If the company or agent is very strong, you don't have much choice, you can only passively wait for resource allocation... But you are lucky to have caught up with the peak period of Tangren..."

"Haha," Liu Shishi smiled: "I heard that your relationship with Tianyu is not very good?"

"Yes, I think they are idiots, and they also think I am an idiot... I see you all as idiots, and you should see me as such, and prejudices are born in this way!"

Liu Shishi laughed non-stop, and while laughing, she said: "...You talk so funny!"

This... the laugh point is too low!

Shen Liang changed the subject: "Hey, is there a suitable script?"

"My team helped me choose it, "One Thought at the Pass" written by Teacher Zhang Wei..."

"Not bad!"

Zhang Wei, a great screenwriter, has many representative works, "Legend of Lu Zhen", "Legend of Ban Shu", "Who Rules the World", "Dream of Hualu"...

I have previously worked with Liu Shishi on "The Female Doctor: The Legend of Ming Fei", and the effect was good...

So, it is understandable that she was chosen for this comeback!

I remember that during the broadcast of "One Thought at the Pass", Douyin had a lot of marketing, such as "Liu Shishi has waited for six years in the domestic entertainment industry, and no one is better than her in fighting! '

Then I saw the fighting scene: slow motion + fixed pose to show the face + unclear fast shot on the stand-in + stuck in PPT to show the killing eyes...

This thing is also called a good-looking fighting scene?

What kind of fighting scene is it if there is no continuous fighting set of moves with a long shot showing the face?

Don't expect the long shot fighting scenes of several minutes like Shaw Brothers, and you can't do it for dozens of seconds without cutting the camera?

Well, the main thing is "Legend of Fei"...

Besides, "One Thought of Guanshan" really has no marketing points!

"Didn't they hand you the script?"

"I won't take this kind of drama for the time being..."

"Why?" Liu Shishi was curious: "Is it because of the female lead script?"

"That's not the case," Shen Liang scratched his head: "This kind of drama is boring... If you have that time, you might as well find a script to make a movie!"

"That's right, your movies can all sell well!"

At this time, Yang Mi returned to the private room and asked: "Have you finished talking?"

"Um..."

"He disagrees?"

Liu Shishi glanced at Shen Liang, and then said: "I haven't even read the script!"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "Dream of Hualu" also found I refused as well."

"... Liu Yifei, you refused?"

"She is too unlucky, I am worried that I can't handle it..."

"That's right," Yang Mi nodded seriously: "Playing "Mulan" can catch up with global problems. Few people dare to provoke such unlucky people!"

...

After the dinner, Liu Shishi's staff came to pick her up, and Shen Liang followed the idol, tacitly going to the same hotel one after another...

Oh, the main reason for tonight's dinner was that Liu Shishi wanted to invite Shen Liang to star in "One Thought at the Pass"...

Unfortunately, Liang Ge didn't know the goods and directly refused.

In fact, it's not just Liu Shishi, including Yang Mi, Liu Yifei, Tang Yan, Zhao Liying, it's hard to find the second male lead in the dramas they starred in!

Of course, fans hope that their idols can get high-level scripts, join a good team, and at the same time have the golden signboard of "the first female lead".

This is impossible…

Rumors or comments such as “cutouts”, “pregnancy in the crew”, and “stereotyped acting”, as well as high pay with high commercial value, will make some dramas that work hard to polish fine products avoid such actors.

Even if they are found, they will not be given the first place.

For example, in “Skyscraper”, Tianbao’s performance has improved, and there are still many netizens who will specifically emphasize “Tianbao does not affect the whole drama” when calling on everyone to watch the drama.

But the fans accumulated over the years look at the past glory and basically cannot accept the second place…

They will be very sensitive about the ranking issue.

Apart from anything else, Tang Yan starred in “Flower”, and her name was ranked behind Hu Ge and Ma Yili. Many of her fans tore up the “Flower” crew, thinking that with Tang Yan’s popularity, the ranking was only third?

The national popularity and commercial value of the 85 flowers still have a certain precipitation, but in terms of status, they can’t match the movie emperor and TV emperor, so the better choice is to stick to their safe zone-idol dramas and ancient puppet dramas!

But most of the male actors who debuted at the same time as the 85 flowers have already turned to movies. Even if there are still some who are still in TV dramas, it is difficult for them to partner with the 85 flowers who can still market the girlish feeling in idol dramas.

Then the second best thing is to find some traffic...

It just so happens that in recent years, the CP models of younger people such as "sister-brother love" and "sister-dog" have become popular, and the 85 flowers choose young actors as partners, which is also in line with the trend.

Shen Liang before 2019 was the best choice. He was young, handsome and had many fans!

Most importantly, he didn't mind the ranking or anything like that!

But... Shen Liang now is impossible.

He is the Golden Rooster Film Emperor.

The resources he has access to are all top-notch...

Where is the time to play house with the 85 flowers?

The projects he leads basically don't look for 85 flowers.

"Famous" is an exception. After all, Su Mengdie in the movie is the kind of person who can't act - the less good she is at acting, the harder she acts, the more awkward it feels!

Of course, the little aunt is good, but her sense of substitution is not strong enough, because the little aunt can act and is proficient in the rules of Down's performance.

Yang Mi is very suitable!

It brings the audience in at once.

…

The idol has not been filming recently, but has been filming a few commercials…

After finishing “Assassination of Novelist”, she didn’t take any roles, so she was quite free and decided to go to Japan…

“Experience life!”

Shen Liang was a little speechless: “…Travel is also called experiencing life?”

Yang Mi retorted: “Why not?”

“Air tickets, accommodation and food are all decided by your accompanying staff. What kind of life experience? Seeing the scenery?”

“…Then I can’t go alone!”

“When I was in college, I often went out of town alone for two days on weekends and then went back to school!”

Yang Mi shook her head: “I can’t do it alone…”

“So you stars, without assistants, even eating becomes a problem!”

“You talk as if you are not a star…” Yang Mi rolled her eyes at him, and then asked: “Don’t you always like Liu Shishi? Why don’t you want to work with her?”
