I didn't want to be an actor

Well, Rouba didn’t completely let Shen Liang go these days.

Maybe she thought it was more interesting and exciting…

It’s also possible that she wanted Shen’s mother to find out that she and Shen Liang had a relationship beyond friendship. In short, she asked Liang Ge to spend the night with her from time to time!

She even deliberately called out very loudly…

Actually, it was useless. Shen Liang had already arranged for his parents to stay upstairs!

There were several floors between them…

Besides, Liang Ge was not always available…

Basically, he only went there once every other day…

The reason was easy to find—chatting with Dad!

It wasn’t an excuse. Shen Liang did chat with Dad for several hours every day…

Dad Shen still worked in the China Film Theater System, but his position was promoted by two levels. He is now the vice president of digital theaters, and his main work is digital theater management and digital distribution…

China Film Digital Theater ranked among the top five in the country in terms of box office revenue last year, with more than 900 theaters under its umbrella.

Although he didn’t make movies, he knew the process of movie distribution and release very well!

Besides, he was very sensitive to the movie market because he had been facing the first-tier market for a long time.

He told Shen Liangming, ‘This year’s film market will be very bad! ’

It is true - I remember it very clearly, the total box office for one week was less than 100 million, and the total box office for the whole of November was less than 600 million...

The reason is simple: no new movies were released!

"The Journey Home" was released for three months - it got the extension key three times, and the original 1.3 billion movie was forced to reach 1.59 billion!

And...arrogance.

Shen's father suggested that Shen Liang go to the Film Archive (Jiuxianqiao Huantie North Bridge) and broadcast the news "China's film market is the world's number one, and the only one who can beat you is yourself" in a loop!

The year before last and last year, China's box office surpassed the United States and topped the world. "Changjin Lake" is also the global box office champion of 2021-"Spider-Man: Three Spiders" Although the global box office exceeded 1.8 billion US dollars, this is a movie released at the end of December, and the box office results are counted in 2022!

Then, in 2023, the publicity department in charge of the film returned the film's release date to the film company...

At the same time, commercial films are encouraged!

The newly appointed Director Mao signed a military order: the minimum KPI of the mainland box office in 2023 is 50 billion, and the goal is 60 billion!

Therefore, in 2023, the film market will usher in the largest-scale recovery...

For Shen Liang, the movies released this year may only be "New Journey" in addition to "Watergate" and "Miracle" during the Spring Festival...

It's good, maintaining the efficiency of releasing two or three movies a year.

Last year, it was really unexpected!

...

"It's so difficult!"

After filming the bed scene, Shen Liang wiped his sweat and couldn't help but sigh...

The director in charge of recording the highlights asked: "This is the first time that Brother Liang has filmed a bed scene!"

Shen Liang nodded: "Generally speaking, powerful actors are most disgusted with filming intimate scenes. In our opinion, the way to express emotions is not only intimate scenes, but also eyes. The emotions expressed by the details of language, actions, and eyes are the most touching."

"Then why did you agree this time?"

"Nonsense! Rouba, how can it be impossible not to be unwilling!"

"What's the most embarrassing thing?"

"Too many people are around... can't I was free to act, and the director was still guiding me... I took several takes, and my waist was sore... I could only stop when the director thought there was a scene that would make people's adrenaline soar. "

"Are you sore?"

"I can't really press on Rouba... I have to hold myself up... Especially the core part..."

"How does it feel?"

"Not bad, at least I act in front of people, which is much better than when I acted in front of the green screen in "The Wandering Earth"!"

After chatting for a while, Shen Liang noticed that the screenwriter Li Yingji waved at him, and Shen Liang said: "I'm leaving first... The screenwriter called me!"

Li Yingji occasionally followed the crew, and stayed in the hotel most of the time.

Some time ago, Li Yingji took out a script she wrote for "Just Love", and Shen Liang liked it very much, but unfortunately, he couldn't act it - the male protagonist in the play was 20 years old and full of youthfulness...

He was a lot worse!

Originally, Liang Ge wanted to buy the script, and then... I knew that the script had entered the development stage.

Yes, Li Yingji is the ace screenwriter under Lemon Film and Television, and her script must be highly valued!

"Sister, you're looking for me?"

"...I'll introduce you to someone in the same field!"

"Who?"

"Zhou Yifei!"

Brother Liang frowned, obviously he had never heard of this person...

Li Yingji: "The screenwriter of "Little Willingness" was a reporter before, and later worked as a literary planner for several years. He is still a little famous in the circle!"

"Really?"

"...This is her script, take it back and have a look..."

Shen Liang took the script, without even looking at it, and asked directly: "Aren't you going to introduce me to her?"

"You'd better take a look at the script. If you are not satisfied with the script, you will not respect her even if I introduce you to her!"

"Who said that...I have always admired screenwriters..." As he spoke, Shen Liang opened the cover page of the script, and then saw the title "Book of the Dead", and couldn't help frowning: "Horror theme?"

"Medical theme!"

"Really? Let me take a look..."

Plot summary: Zhou Xiaofeng, Fang Xiaoran and Lin Yi, three cardiologists, met by chance at the Heart Center of Dongli Hospital. The three people had friction and collision due to their different professional backgrounds and career concepts, and then gradually got along and reached a tacit understanding in the process of curing diseases and saving lives, and finally fought side by side in the battlefield of life...

It looks familiar...

This... seems to be "Ask the Heart"!

Li Yingji saw him staring at the synopsis of the plot and said quickly: "Don't look at the synopsis, it seems very cliché, but the story arrangement is very good..."

Well, just from the plot summary, "Ask the Heart" is indeed quite old-fashioned - domestic medical dramas often have different medical styles between the protagonist doctors, which leads to various differences at work, but behind these differences, They are all dedicated to doing the best for their patients. The development trend of the plot is also in the cooperation one after another. The protagonists begin to get along successfully, go hand in hand, and fall in love while working together...

"I'll take it back and take a look..."

"Well, if you are interested, please contact the producer Sister Xu as soon as possible..."

"ok!"

Shen Liang nodded, and Li Yingji turned and left...

Brother Liang was also about to leave the shooting location, and Rouba came over: "Where are you going?"

"Eat!"

"What are you holding in your hand?"

Shen Liang: "Senior sister knew that I was looking for scripts all over the world, so she recommended me a good one...it's called "The Book of the Dead"!"

"Screenwriter Li is so kind to you!"

"Of course, she is my senior sister... We at Communication University are considered a vulnerable group in the entire circle, so we must unite!"

"The Book of the Dead...what is it about?"

"Medical theme..."

Rouba was surprised: "Are you interested in medical topics?"

Shen Liang waved his hand: "I have always been interested in the content, not the subject matter... Medical themes can also produce good dramas!"

Rouba waved his hand: "I'm not saying there's anything wrong with medical themes... Sister Mi also filmed "Thank You, Doctor", why don't you cooperate with her?"

"I can't carry her..."

Rouba was delighted: "I will tell Sister Mi what you said!"

"You want to talk or not... let's go eat!" As he spoke, Shen Liang walked towards the car and thought of something: "Do you want to take a look?"

"I won't watch anymore..."

"What's wrong? Are you afraid that I can't take you with you?"

"...Bah...I don't need you to take care of me!"
