I didn't want to be an actor

The younger son entered a juvenile detention center, the older son committed suicide without warning, and the father eventually became a murderer.

Under the sun, everyone has a shadow.

The core characters of "The Sun Shines" are three teenagers: the youngest son Ahe, the eldest son Ahao, and Ahe's "bad friend" Afei from a family of four.

The character A Fei is actually a tragedy.

Family background: There is only an old grandmother. When he impulsively committed a crime out of loyalty, not only was his family unable to provide him with any help - not even a dime could be compensated, and even his only relative, his grandmother, was sent away Went to a nursing home.

No one around him showed any mercy to him. His friends just wanted to draw a clear line with him. In short, he was a poor and helpless man...

Relatively speaking, Ah He's parents gave him a lot of help, and in the end his father even helped him kill the troublesome Ah Fei.

Ironically, Ah Fei died because he was worried that Ah He would be scolded by his boss because of the smell of cigarette smoke in the car, so he chose to get out of the car to smoke. This allowed Ah Fei's father to find a suitable opportunity to kill him...

Let’s talk about the meeting between the cast and crew.

"Teacher Chen Jin, who plays my mother in "Do You Know", I told her about "The Sun Shines" and she came over to help..."

"Teacher Chen Daoming, we have already met at the Qinhan Film and Television City in Duyun."

"This is Bai Lu, my... friend, here to act as my wife in the play..."

"Jingtian..."

Shen Liang's team naturally wanted to introduce everyone to each other: "Xiao Zhan, we have known each other for 15 years and participated in the talent show together... Later, we signed a contract with a company, a warm man, and he played Ah Hao, which is considered his true character; Wang Yibo, Han My brother introduced us... I felt that this person had a bad vibe, so I cast him to play Ah Fei this time!"

Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo hurriedly said hello...

"This is the director of photography, Mr. Li Pingbin. Our producers particularly like Mr. Li Pingbin's photography style..."

Seeing that Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo were not very surprised when they heard Li Pingbin's name, Shen Liang reminded in a low voice: "Mr. Li is director Hou Hsiao-hsien's royal photographer, and has also worked with Xu Anhua and Wang Jiawei... a top photographer!"

"So powerful?"

“Who is our producer?”

"...my aunt..."

After Shen Liang said this, Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo both looked at him. The latter waved his hand: "Don't look at me. I told you a long time ago that I am a resource guy!"

…

The original budget of "Sunshine Shines": the total cost was 12 million, and the actors were basically friendly and supportive. The highest paid one was Director Chen's 300,000...

——According to Shen Liang's estimate, this movie will only have a box office of 300 million at most!

After all, the subject matter is here, "The Party at Southern Station" was supported by Brother Hu, and the box office was just over 200 million.

But it can at least exceed 100 million - Shen Liang + Xiao Zhan + Wang Yibo, this lineup is too popular.

Making money is certain.

Therefore, the investors are Shen Liang Studio + China Film.

One is responsible for production and the other is responsible for distribution.

Simply perfect!

Later, Wow, Tengxun Pictures and BJ Culture all wanted a piece of the pie...

Mother Shen thought about it and gave up 40% of the investment - after all, they do have more experience in distribution and publicity than China Film...

Therefore, there are a total of five production companies: Shen Liang Studio, China Film, Wow Haw Haw, Tencent Pictures plus BJ Culture...

It’s not over yet, Rao Xiaozhi’s Yi Yiyi Culture Media will also co-produce it. In addition, Guo Fan’s Guo Fan Pictures, including Hanshanping’s Zhengfu Pictures.

Let’s do business together and make money together!

The film industry is a vanity fair and it's all about connections and relationships.

In other words, the pie of "Sunshine Shines" is too small. Otherwise, more partners can be brought in.

It’s a cold winter period for film and television, so let’s all stick together to keep warm!

From this perspective, has Shen Liang been promoted to capital?

Capital is a piece of cake. Distribution and publicity include upstream production and downstream channels. He does not occupy any of them. Is this also called capital?

At most, he can only be considered a producer with some say!

Oh, Rao Xiaozhi came here with producer Han Shanping...

…

"The idea for the script was given to me by Shen Liang. He told me a beginning and character designs. The story was supplemented by me and the screenwriter..."

"...It's different from "The Unknown". "The Unknown" itself has a strong dramatic color, while "The Sun Shines" is more plot-oriented..."

A lot of media came to the opening ceremony, and director Rao Xiaozhi was interviewed first.

Then he asked Shen Liang: "Why is it called "The Sun Shines"?"

Shen Liang said seriously: "Everything is bright and full of hope; it also contains the interweaving of light and darkness, as well as the repeated joys and sorrows...

At my age, there are not many suitable roles. I originally wanted to do a school bullying theme, but this theme is not easy to work on. I happened to see a news article: After an argument with his mother, a 17-year-old boy in Shanghai opened the car door and jumped out of Lupu. Ohashi'...I feel that our minors live very repressed lives. Teachers are the authority at school and parents are the authority at home.

All communication is never equal...and then there's this story! "

“…So, this is a movie about underage mental health?”

"No," Shen Liang waved his hand: "You will know after watching the movie!"

"...I heard that you called all the actors here?"

"Yes, I worked with Chen Daoming on "Celebrating Yu Nian" and Chen Jin, who played my mother in "Do You Know?". Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo, we have a good relationship. When they heard that I was going to organize a movie, they came to help without saying a word."

"Then... Bai Lu?"

"Bai Lu is the same..."

"Will it be awkward?"

"I thought it wouldn't be awkward at first... After all, it's been three years. I still feel a little awkward when I met her in the morning... Fortunately, I don't have many scenes with her..."

"Isn't she playing your wife?"

"When she appeared, I was already in the juvenile detention center. After I came out, my child was three years old..." At this point, Shen Liang looked annoyed and looked at Wang Yibo: "Did I spoil the plot?"

Wang Yibo was speechless: "... You've almost finished talking about your role experience !"

"...My fault," Shen Liang said hurriedly: "I said don't report it..."

"Hehe..." The reporter who interviewed him smiled and asked: "Your first album sales exceeded 100 million... Many people are concerned about your music plan. Do you have any idea of ​​holding a concert?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "Offline concert plans... No for now, but if everyone wants to watch a concert, I will work with Douyin to hold a few online concerts... No need to buy tickets, the kind that can be watched with a mobile phone..."

"Why not hold a concert?"

"...No time! I still owe Tengxun two dramas and a variety show... How can I have time to hold a concert?"

"...So, you position yourself as an actor?"

"Not really..."

"What is the specific position?"

"Worker, a relatively free worker..."
