I didn't want to be an actor

"Shushan" will be released on the 20th of next month, and Shen Liang will definitely have to promote it.

This is why he is anxious to return to the crew...

According to the plan, Shen Liang must stay in the crew of "West of Anxi" for at least two months...

Well, Liang Ge is not a person who values ​​time that much. When it comes to filming, efficiency comes first!

But no matter how efficient you are, filming takes time.

"West of Anxi" is not a low-cost genre film. It is a historical and military theme with a large investment. It is shot on location and even requires thousands of people to work together for large scenes!

The shooting cycle of the whole play is four months.

Liang Ge has a lot of scenes, and no matter how intensively he shoots, it will take at least two months!

Therefore, he will probably have to take leave to promote "Shushan".

Moreover, relatively speaking, "Shushan" is more important to Shen Liang!

After all, "Shushan" is produced by Shen Liang Studio, with an investment of nearly 300 million yuan. Moreover, "Shushan: Origin" is related to the subsequent "Shushan: Sword Fighting" and "Shushan: Heaven and Earth Tribulation"...

The total cost of "The Vanishing Her" is only 80 million...

Shen Liang's salary is 15 million + tiered box office share!

If the box office exceeds 1 billion, he can take 10% of the box office share after deducting the cost. If it exceeds 2 billion, it is the previous share plus 15% of the box office share between 1 billion and 2 billion. If it exceeds 3 billion, it is 20% between 2 billion and 3 billion...

If it is 4 billion, it is 25% between 3 billion and 4 billion...

The ceiling is 40%, which is 7 billion box office!

The fixed 15% box office share will make the producer dissatisfied!

Let's calculate based on the 4 billion box office. After deducting the cost, the total share is about 1.55 billion, and 15% is 232.5 million...

The tiered share is 236 million!

35 million more.

Of course, this kind of profit sharing is actually quite disadvantageous to Shen Liang...

But he is a man of high moral character!

Well... He rarely accepts foreign films, and may not accept one in a year, so just follow this profit sharing. If you don’t want to, forget it!

…

“Shushan” is a special effects film, and its benchmark is “Fengshen”... So, “Fengshen Part 1” will be released on July 20, and we will also be released on July 20. Released on the 20th!" Chen Sicheng sighed: "Do you hate Chen Kun so much?" Shen Liang was puzzled: "What does it have to do with Chen Kun?" "Chen Kun is in "The Investiture of the Gods"!" "I really don't pay attention to this. I only know that the director of "The Investiture of the Gods" investigated domestic special effects companies and said it was not feasible, so he found someone to set up a visual effects company and held 70% of the shares. The special effects company has an office in BJ and Los Angeles respectively. The domestic concept design was outsourced to foreign companies, including eight outsourcing companies in Australia, the United States, New Zealand, South Korea and other countries, including Weta... That's it, and you still have the nerve to brag about 'domestic The first heavy industrial special effects blockbuster in China'..."

Wen Yongshan: "Ah? Isn't this money laundering?"

"...This is not money laundering...When "The Lord of the Rings" was filmed, Peter Jackson also established a special effects company, Weta Digital, and Cameron established Digital Kingdom for "True Lies"...Director Wu Ershan is just imitating his predecessors!"

"But I still feel..."

"The basis for judgment is very simple, just look at the finished film and you will know!"

Chen Sicheng: "Are you confident in "Shushan"? "

"Yes, I am very confident. Even if it is placed in Hollywood, the special effects are not inferior. Moreover, we have introduced special effects teams since the preparation period, and have done a lot of work. 18 months is enough!"

"When the premiere comes, remember to send me an invitation!"

"That's a must..."

After chatting for a while, the car arrived at the hotel, and Shen Liang remembered something: "Old Chen, do you want to do a live broadcast with me?"

"Promote "The Lost Her"?"

"Yes!"

Chen Sicheng looked Shen Liang up and down: "...Aren't you tired?"

"I'm fine...I can handle it, just wash my face later!"

"...I..."

Chen Sicheng was about to agree, but the assistant next to him reminded him: "Brother, there will be an interview later!"

"...Forget it...You can do the live broadcast yourself..." Chen Sicheng shook his head regretfully, and then mentioned "You can bring the three of them with you!"

Shen Liangyi refused righteously: "It's late at night, a man and a woman alone, how can it be so embarrassing!"

"..."

Chen Sicheng almost couldn't help it...

Damn it, when you were in the crew, you spent every night together... Do you really think I don't know?

"The Lost Girl" is a commercial film, and commercial films need to mobilize a large number of non-suspense film audiences, so the film is relatively straightforward in dealing with suspense, which certainly cannot meet the viewing requirements of suspense lovers... The Douban score dropped by 7 points, which is within expectations!"

Entering the live broadcast room, he first answered the question of the decline in the word-of-mouth score of The Lost Girl.

Then he said: "After all, this is not my movie, I am just an actor... This kind of exotic + suspense + crime creative model is very Chen Sicheng!"

"I still like Chen Sicheng very much. He made "Vanished Her" just to make money, and he only wanted to make money from mainland audiences, so he repeatedly studied the preferences of mainland audiences... "Vanished Her" at least has an interesting story, clear logic, smooth rhythm, and beautiful pictures. It is not only the director himself who can understand it, but also ordinary audiences..."

"His self-positioning is quite clear. He understands that the first rule of commercial movies is customer first, not art first, or even self first!"

“Of course, many so-called film artists are not actually first in art, but first in “foreign” art. They make movies for the recognition of foreigners!”

Then a group of people in the live broadcast room asked him to give examples.

Shen Liang chuckled: “Give me an example… Do you think I’m afraid? Well, I’m really afraid… I’m now a mainstream filmmaker, and many things are hard to say, but those who are interested can look through my previous live broadcast records, I believe you will gain something!”

“The song “Rakshasa Sea City” is actually a satire on the media. I’ve read the script of the movie “In the Octagonal Cage”. The ending is that Xiang Tenghui, played by Bao Qiang, attracts attention by self-degradation. Under heavy pressure, he defeats his opponent with the help of public opinion and wins a good ending… I thought of “Rakshasa Sea City” in “Liao Zhai”…”

“It tells the story of a man named Ma Ji, who is handsome and was accidentally blown by a hurricane. A country that values ​​beauty over talent - the Great Rakshasa Country. In this country, ugliness is considered beautiful, and officials are appointed based on appearance. The rank of official position decreases with beauty and ugliness. The handsome Ma Ji is regarded as a monster in this country... The story vividly depicts a deformed society where beauty and ugliness are not distinguished, black and white are reversed, and good and evil are abnormal..."

"The stories in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" are always new... I think they are similar to Xiang Tenghui in "In the Octagonal Cage", so I wrote this song at that time..."

...

After chatting for an hour without realizing it, Shen Liang went off the air, then took a bottle of red wine, went out, and knocked on Wen Yongshan's door...

I originally thought that it was the last day, so we should drink some wine together, not engage in any artistic exchanges, and chat and talk about our hearts!

I thought too much, the three of them had no intention of talking about their hearts at all...

They just wanted to exchange art!

Wen Yongshan even suggested that Shen Liang not use security measures, and then see who gets pregnant...

As expected of the young model master, he has many tricks...

It is similar to the legendary Russian roulette.

However, Shen Liang certainly disagreed, this is too dangerous!

Liang Ge went to the hospital for testing, and his activity rate was A-level, which can easily make women pregnant.

Therefore, intercepting the elves is standard!
