I didn't want to be an actor

Xu Zheng has actually been contacting the actress...

The preliminary preparations for "Cohabitation in Time and Space" have been completed - the breakdown of the script including the scenery work has been completed!

Decomposing a script, simply put, means breaking it down one by one according to basic elements such as scenes, locations, actors, etc. At the same time, attention should also be paid to the length of shooting, props, stunts, and photography equipment.

Write everything down on index cards to make scene cards.

Then after the actors arrive, variables will be added based on the actors' schedules, and the production team will make a budget and shooting plan based on this.

As for the scenery, it’s all about shooting and framing…

Only by seeing the exterior scenes can we determine the composition of the shot and draw a storyboard.

These tasks have been completed, and now we are left with the starring role!

Su Lun flew to Qingdao and chatted with Shen Liang several times. He was very relieved about Shen Liang and the male lead was finally decided.

Female number one…

It’s a bit difficult!

If Xu Zheng becomes the director himself, actresses will surely compete for this project. The problem is, he is only the producer...

I tentatively made appointments with several people, but either they thought the money was too little or they were not optimistic about it...

In short, I don’t want to appear.

This matter is easy to understand. It is a light romantic comedy directed by a non-famous director, but it is still an original script. The male protagonist is a newcomer, and the key is to pay for it...

What he is looking for are all popular female celebrities. What can they do that doesn’t make money?

Starring in your crappy movie with an uncertain future?

Xu Zheng called to complain...

"What do you think is wrong with today's actresses? They don't read the script or the lineup when accepting a movie... They also said that "Cohabitation in Time and Space" will definitely not make over one billion, so they won't star in it..."

Shen Liang told the truth: "It's really difficult to get this book over one billion!"

"Let's not discuss whether it can exceed one billion. Actors should not use this as a criterion when accepting roles... Do you like this story? Do you like this character? Do you like this subject matter? Have you been affected by it?

I think this is what an actor should pay attention to. It’s up to you to choose whether to take the role or not. You can say: I don’t like this story and I won’t accept it, that’s no problem! Now you are saying: This movie is not worth 1 billion, so I won’t accept it... This is ridiculous! Did you know? "

"...There is no other way. Public opinion now regards 1 billion as a watershed. Only those with more than 1 billion are considered hot hits!"

"Then how do you answer it?"

"I like this story..."

"So... you are a good actor who knows how to act..."

The voice on the other end of the phone was a little confused, and Shen Liang asked in a low voice: "Director Xu, are you drunk?"

"No...I just drank a little..."

Shen Liang suggested: "Director Xu, if it doesn't work out, I recommend Jing Tian or Nini..."

"Do you know them both?"

"I know Jing Tian... I met him once during a program recording some time ago."

"What about Nini?"

"...I quite like her..."

When Xu Zheng heard this, he immediately became happy: "Haha, do you want to develop a relationship with her?"

"...It's not...mostly those post-85s actresses who have a good reputation..."

Shen Liang really remembered it accidentally, mainly because he auditioned for "Know or Not" some time ago, and he thought of Feng Shaofeng, and then thought of Nini...

"Don't explain, this kind of thing is normal...I'll help you make an appointment..."

Shen Liang thought for a while and said: "Director Xu, if the crew is really short of money, I can invest half of it..."

"Vote half..." Xu Zheng immediately asked: "Do you like this play?"

"To be honest, I think this project is a romantic light comedy. If the schedule is good, it should be fine with a box office of 200 to 300 million yuan. Therefore, I can accept a cost of 50 million yuan..."

"...I'll try to invite you again. If it really doesn't work, let's stop talking!"

Xu Zheng hung up the phone, and the translation of the last sentence was, 'I'll try to fool you again, but there's really no one around, so I'll throw money at you again! ’

In fact, Xu Zheng just wants to use small money to do big things. It is best to do things without spending money!

The so-called ‘Do you like this story? Do you like this character? Do you like this subject matter? Have you been infected? ’ To translate, ‘If you are impressed, can you reduce your salary to star in the show? ’

Of course, he himself is also this kind of person. When he wanted to make a breakthrough, he starred in "Crazy Stone" for free, and took over the filming of "Night·Club" with a low salary...

Therefore, he felt that some of those popular actresses might also want to transform...

Transformation?

That is a question that a group of talents are considering when the film and television industry enters the cold winter period. At this stage, female stars are all busy with dramas with female protagonists - even Zhang Ziyi couldn't help but act in one...

At this time, big names are vigorously moving from movies to big IP dramas. This is called the limelight!

"Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace", "Emperor and Phoenix Industry", "The Legend of Ba Qing", "Huang Quan: Game of the World", plus Tang Wei's "The Princess of Ming Dynasty"...

There are more than a hundred episodes on the record, all adapted from the ancient Internet romance Mary Sue, with big IP and big heroines.

The leading actors also received huge salaries.

Who can watch poor movies?

…

Shen Liang arrived at the set and saw Uncle Gong and Li Hongjie lying back to back on the ground...

After hurriedly saying hello, Li Hongjie didn't bother to look up at him and said directly: "Go change your clothes quickly!"

"…good!"

The staff came immediately to help him get dressed...

With the improvement of the proficiency of on-site staff, it used to take three people more than an hour to put on this protective suit, but now it can be done by two people in half an hour...

"Which part was shot?"

"The rescue team's mission to ignite Jupiter's hydrogen!"

"…shooting today?"

"Um!"

Shen Liang sighed secretly...

This scene was very difficult to film. I remember reading an interview. Qu Chuxiao, who played Liu Qi in the original version, had a deep memory of this scene - it took two days and two nights!

By the end of the job, all the staff were numb...

Shen Liang was actually not prepared...

If he had known that this scene would be filmed tonight, he would have had a good rest!

Forget it, Zhao Jinmai didn't even say anything. How could he be so embarrassed as an adult?

The first time…

Not good at the beginning...

It's normal. This thing is a green screen scene, and Shen Liang needs to mobilize enough emotions to say goodbye to Liu Peiqiang...

The plot is that Liu Peiqiang decided to sacrifice himself to light Jupiter and say goodbye to Liu Qi.

The key point is that Liu Qi, played by Shen Liang, has no rivalry with Liu Peiqiang from beginning to end...

It’s hard to make an emotional connection.

Moreover, Wu Jing was not at the scene, so Shen Liang yelled crazily at the camera alone - an emotional breakdown - and then collapsed to the ground...

When Liu Qi learned that Liu Peiqiang was trying to ignite Jupiter by detonating the space station, he was unwilling to do so. He just said shut up, shut up, shut up. Liu Peiqiang said, "Son, you should know that this is the only way for you and the earth to survive! As long as there is a third I wouldn’t choose between the two options..."

"...What qualifications do you have to make decisions for me?"

Liu Peiqiang replied, "You are right. I have no right to make decisions for you or others, but I have the right to make decisions for myself. Now I give my life to the earth and to you."

"Son, dad loves you, and mom loves you too. If we have to choose between ourselves and you, then we will choose to let you live without hesitation.

Because no matter at any time, you are our favorite person.

Because we love you, even if we can no longer grow up with you, even if we can't see each other for the last time, we must leave the hope of life to you. Son, please live well. "

Liu Qi burst into tears...

Emotions are like this...

It looks simple, but it’s so difficult to act!

Shen Liang has acted three times and is still not good...

I really can’t find emotional support...

After three passes, Shen Liang collapsed from exhaustion. The key protective suit weighed more than 60 kilograms. The suit was not only thick, but also very airtight. After several months of shooting, all the accumulated odors could only be discharged from the collar, and then in the helmet. Mid cycle…

Smelly and rancid...

It makes people want to vomit...
