I didn't want to be an actor

Shen Liang and Liu Shishi actually knew each other...

In Hengdian that year, Shen Liang was filming "The Legend of a Little Mermaid", and Nini and Liu Shishi were co-starring in "Golden Years" and had a dinner date together.

However, since then, there has been no intersection!

After all, Liu Shishi has been a bit elusive in recent years.

She hasn’t been in the group for more than two years...

And I often don’t post on Weibo for more than a month!

Shen Liang's impression of her... was that she was as pale as a chrysanthemum?

In fact, she may not have much career ambition.

But it’s impossible for a team. If you don’t fight for them, what will they eat?

Her team is very powerful. A previous Bazaar interview video was immediately dropped from public relations because it was ridiculed because it didn’t look good.

And the things that affect her rarely go out of the circle - compared to other companies, it is not painful to send a lawyer's letter until everyone knows it...

And, have you seen her interview? Have you ever watched a talk show? Do you know how she talks? Do you know what her voice sounds like?

At most, you've only watched "Happy Camp", right?

However, she is indeed quite low-key...

Even if there are works online, they are rarely promoted...

Shen Liang greeted: "Sister Shi Shi, Sister Mi..."

They both stood up and shook hands... At the end of the process, Yang Mi was curious: "You two know each other?"

"We had dinner together in Hengdian before..."

"Yes," Liu Shishi nodded: "It seems to be 19 years!"

"I thought you two didn't know each other..." Yang Mi smiled: "Would you like to eat something first?"

"...I just ate something..."

"Burger + milk tea?"

"Yes...how do you know?"

Yang Mi spread out her phone: "It's been on the hot search... It said you invited more than 2,000 movie fans to dinner!"

"I didn't ask for it, it was the crew's account..."

"Why do you think of inviting them to eat? Do you want tea?"

"Okay..." Shen Liang nodded and explained by the way: "They haven't eaten yet, and I heard that many of them have been waiting all afternoon..."

"Are you so nice to your fans?"

"They are the first wave of word-of-mouth promoters of the movie...and burgers and milk tea are not expensive. Why can the media charge travel fees, and why are the first batch of moviegoers not left? This is unfair!"

Yang Mi was noncommittal and changed the topic: "Why is "Peak" released today? Isn't it supposed to be a National Day release?"

"There is "Changjin Lake" on the National Day schedule..."

"Then how much box office can "Peak Explosion" earn?"

"The theater chain gave a box office forecast of 2.5 billion, but I don't think it is that high... After all, the market in September has always been on the cold side..."

"How many do you think it is?"

Shen Liang hesitated for a moment, then said: "About 2.3 billion..."

"2.3 billion..." Liu Shishi suddenly said: "I have acted in seven or eight movies, but the total is not 2.3 billion, no, not even one billion!"

"I'm about the same...but in his opinion, a box office of 2.3 billion can only be considered a normal performance..."

"Who said you don't have 2.3 billion? Don't you have the "Tiny Times" series!"

The four "Tiny Times" films together have a box office of 1.79 billion...

But don’t forget that Yang Mi was known as the box office queen in the early years - the "Tiny Times" tetralogy has a shortcut of 1.8 billion, "The Breakup Master" has exceeded 600 million, and even the super bad movie "Why Sheng Xiao Mo" (movie Version 1) The box office has reached 350 million!

Until "Baby" officially hit the market, it completely shattered the so-called box office queen's marketing...

Yang Mi immediately said: "Don't mention "Tiny Times" to me! That movie brought me nothing but attention..."

"Then what do you want? Recognition of your acting skills? Four Golden Broomsticks?"

Yang Mi rolled her eyes: "Lin Xiao, you are so advanced in cursing people now, aren't you? You really can't understand it if you don't have a bit of vicious IQ."

Liu Shishi was confused when he heard this: "...What are you talking about?"

"The lines from "Tiny Times" are very popular..."

…

When the tea was delivered, Shen Liang took the tea made by the staff, took a sip, and then asked: "By the way, idol, why did you come to me?"

"...My sister is going to make a comeback. Do you have any good scripts?"

Shen Liang subconsciously wanted to reply: I strongly recommend "Defiant"...

Or remake "I Am a Witness" again and let the blind lady tell you what is the correct way to interpret a blind person!

But this is too vicious!

He wasn't that familiar with Liu Shishi, so he thought about it and shook his head: "No..."

"'Lotus Tower' is so popular, you have no idea of ​​doing another martial arts film? Shi Shi is very suitable for martial arts!"

Shen Liang shook his head: "I have no idea at the moment... I even rejected "Swordsman in the Snow"..."

"Why not shoot?"

"There is no such thing as a particularly good script..."

"That's right," Yang Mi also picked up the cup, took a sip, and then said, "There's a queue for your book!"

"...It's not that exaggerated..."

But it's almost the same. After "Lotus Tower", a bunch of costume action scripts came to the door, "Mirror Two Cities", "Heroes", "Thousand Gates" including "Shattering Knife", "Luoyang Daughters", " "Wild Geese Flying to the Moon", "Kunlun"...

That’s right, the masterpiece of the four new mainland martial arts masters!

"Shattering Sky Knife", the opening work of Shi Weihan's "Ming General" series;

"Daughter's Journey to Luoyang", Xiao Zhen's masterpiece;

"Kunlun", Feng Ge's masterpiece;

"Wild Geese Flying to the Moon", a work by Wang Qingchuan...

These are all undeveloped IP.

In the past few years, the Jiuzhou series has been adapted into big and small screens, including "Jiuzhou·Sky City", "Jiuzhou·Sea Shepherd Clouds", "Jiuzhou·Piaomiao Lu", "Jiuzhou·The Lady of the Pearl" (renamed "The Lady of the Pearl"), "Jiuzhou·Hua Xu Yin" (renamed "Hua Xu Yin"), and "Jiuzhou·Zhu Yan Ji" (renamed "Xinghe Changming")

But one after another, they have disappointed the audience.

In comparison, the contemporary "Jin Gu Wuxia Edition" and "Wuxia Story" seem too lonely. In fact, the scenery of the Jiuzhou series is very big. On the one hand, it comes from the popularity of "Game of Thrones". Investors have come up with the gimmick of "China Copyright Tour"!

It's not that shooting martial arts dramas is expensive, but it's more expensive to shoot Jiuzhou well. Because they don't want to spend money, one after another has failed...

The market has invested resources in a series of big female lead dramas. With the current film and television winter, the restriction of ancient dramas, and the negative growth of theater box office, investors would rather continue to remake Jin Gu than take the risk of trying these new martial arts.

Because remaking Jin Yong and Gu Long's works is a very safe behavior - there will definitely be TV stations and video platforms to pay for it. The 2018 version of "New Smiling Proud Wanderer" directed by Jin Chen was so bad, but Youku still paid for it.

The investment of sophisticated production and well-known actors is not proportional to the income and risk obtained.

Capital is not willing to take risks.

Now there is only one possibility, Shen Liang is willing to take a film!

Once he shoots it and the broadcast effect is good, the IP value of these works will be reflected.

Shen Liang is not afraid of taking risks. He likes Shi Weihan's "The Peak" and Wang Qingchuan's "Wild Goose Flying in the Moonlight", including most of Xiao Linden's works, he has read...

If there is a chance, he will try to make a series of movies. Shi Weihan's "Stealing the Sky Series" and "Ming Jiangjun Series" can be made into online movies...

Oh, back to the dinner, Yang Mi went to the bathroom in the middle, leaving Shen Liang and Liu Shishi alone...

So, good girlfriends are to share good things?
