I didn't want to be an actor

Rouba is a bit like Shen Liang, that is, he rarely hangs out with others when he is off the show!

When actors are filming, the crew usually stays for two or three months.

Some people like to make friends very much. After the show, we eat together, sing karaoke, or play games together...

Shen Liang rarely does this.

With this time, he would rather go back to his room to live stream or read a book...

On the one hand, he really doesn’t like useless social interactions;

On the other hand, he is a superstar with a different status!

There is no need to pretend to be nice...

Others will also have psychological burden!

Rouba, almost the same...

When I was on the set, apart from filming, I rarely interacted with people...

However, unlike Shen Liang who enjoys being alone, Rouba doesn't want to communicate with others!

I am afraid of traffic, care about other people’s opinions, and am afraid of causing trouble to others because of myself. These altruistic attributes are all caused by being denied self-examination for a long time...

But she knew she was successful!

Therefore, I feel inferior and conceited...

Ahem...

However, filming wrapped today, and she still went to have dinner with several actors from the crew.

After eating, she went back to her room.

Find Shen Liang immediately.

"They all like you very much, why don't you go to dinner?"

"I want to broadcast live. "Storm Chaser" will be broadcast tomorrow!"

“…Is work that important?”

Shen Liang smiled; "I'm not familiar with them. When we get along, I have to remind myself not to be shy and to be approachable... It's so tiring!"

Rouba asked curiously: "Then you don't care what they think of you?"

"I don't live by other people's looks..."

"You do have a lot of negative fans!"

"Do you have more?"

Brother Liang silenced her with just one sentence...

Compared with Shen Liang, Rouba really has anti-fans all over the Internet!

"A person's true freedom is to have the courage to be hated."

"What?" Rouba was speechless: "...can you please stop talking about these big principles while taking off your clothes?"

"Life is not about proving yourself, but living a wonderful life. Don't let other people's judgments constrain your thoughts. All our low self-esteem and sensitivity are due to our expectation of being recognized by others. So what if others recognize you? You are just a typical example "I won the world but lost myself."

"I'm here to deepen your memory..."

As he spoke, Brother Liang picked her up and skillfully used the equipment separation skill...

"…Wait a moment…"

"Tell us later!"

…

At noon the next day, Chen Jiadong also flew from BJ to Shanghai...

It can be seen that Brother Liang still attaches great importance to this conversation!

Well, Chen Jiadong is here to participate in the event - the national theater chain talks organized by United Cinemas...

As the person in charge of Shen Liang's studio, he must come to participate.

By the way, Shen Liang pulled me over...

"Gan Xinqing Studio..."

"Yes, the producer of "The Next Stop Is Happiness" and "In the Name of Family"!"

"They seem to be cooperating with Mango Channel, right?"

"Well... what they produce are basically original modern dramas!" Shen Liang then added: "Affected by multiple factors such as cost reduction and efficiency improvement, the platforms are basically following the route of self-made dramas. Mango Channel is not as wealthy as Teng Aiyou. Therefore, they will actively cooperate with young teams, such as Kan Xinqing Studio, Wang Juan and the like!”

Chen Jiadong nodded: "Yes, there have been quite a few original projects in the past two years. Because the conversion rate of IP is low, it takes a very long process to turn an IP into a good script and be filmed. Generally speaking, IP novels Often 2-3 years before the script, the producer cannot start filming immediately after buying the IP, and the IP will be backlogged. Maybe only one or two of the 10 IPs will be seen by everyone.

In addition, IP procurement costs are increasing year by year, and platforms have begun to advocate "cost reduction and efficiency improvement" in recent years. Original drama series have naturally become the focus of major platforms' efforts. "

"Okay, the script is good, so I'll take it!"

"Okay..." Chen Jiadong immediately asked: "What do you need me to do? Do you want to fight for the salary?"

“…What’s my current market quote?”

"It's all the same, 80 million!"

"So high?"

Chen Jiadong waved his hand: "...The basic salary for a movie is 5 million plus a stepped share, and the salary for a TV series is 30 million plus a 20% profit share!"

"Then...generally A-level projects won't come to me..."

"There are no A-level projects nowadays. They are either S-level or B-level..."

"Is the polarization so extreme?"

"Reducing costs and increasing efficiency. In the past, the price for a drama was 80 million for big stars. Now, it is cut off by two-thirds... If you can get 30 million, it is considered the best!"

"I see…"

Chen Jiadong remembered something: "Director Shao Yihui has obtained the rights to adapt "What Is Love" and is going to invite you to star in it!"

"..."What is Love"? A Japanese movie?"

"Yes, it tells the story of the love brain..."

Shen Liang was surprised: "I can't play the role of love brain, right?"

"No...her script is still in the finishing stage..."

Shen Liang was curious: "How did you know?"

"I get along well with her..."

Shen Liang immediately asked: "Are you pursuing her?"

"No," Chen Jiadong shook his head: "I have bought her e-cigarette before..."

"She... sells e-cigarettes?"

"Hmm..." After a pause, Chen Jiadong continued: "I have contact with many young directors. The current environment is not good, and many of them have started to do side jobs. Some sell courses, some teach people to make films, and some teach people to shoot films..."

"Side jobs?"

"The high-end ones are engaged in overseas confinement centers, overseas real estate purchases, study abroad agencies, and even overseas surrogacy agencies; the mid-end ones are overseas purchasing agents, producing and selling Malaysian bird's nests and Musang King durians; the low-end ones sell insurance, open Taobao stores, and help people tell fortunes..."

"Isn't this illegal?"

"It's much better than being a pimp..."

"There are pimps?"

"They are insiders and know many unsuccessful young actors..." Chen Jiadong reacted: "What's wrong? Do you want to know them?"

"I'm just curious for a moment... ahem... you ask Director Shao Yihui to write well..."

"Hmm..."

While the two chatted, they arrived at the place.

A high-end private restaurant...

...

Push open the seemingly inconspicuous glass door, and you will find a different world inside. Walk through the long corridors, touch the texture of the stone wall with your fingers, bronze utensils through the glass, exquisite wood carvings and stone carvings, paintings of different styles, bricks, stones, wood and green plants.

It makes people feel like they are in a "museum"!

A very stylish private restaurant.

Push open the door, and there are four or five people sitting inside...

Huace's boss, Zhao Yifang, is here too!

Shen Liang immediately greeted: "Mr. Zhao!"

"Xiao Shen is here... Let me introduce you, producer Long Ya, director Ding Ziguang, and our screenwriter Wang Yi..."

"... Hello..."

Shen Liang greeted everyone one by one and sat down.

Usually with Chen Jiadong, who is responsible for socializing: "Brother Liang told me that he has always wanted to shoot a modern drama, but... there has never been a suitable script!"

"Yes... I have basically acted in costume dramas in recent years!"

"... This is Wang Yi's latest script, called "Go to a Windy Place", you can take a look first..."
