I didn't want to be an actor

"You play the male lead, and I'll play the lead!"

"You're kidding..." Seeing that he didn't scare her, Shen Liang immediately changed his words: "Our company doesn't have any production plans at the moment... there are only two movies and one TV series scheduled to be launched... I've already told you about the movies..."

Rouba: "What about the TV series?"

"It's called "Twinkle Twinkle Star", a bit like "Want to Meet You", and Zhao Jinmai has been cast as the lead!"

"Why are you so nice to her?"

"She is suitable. There is no choice in terms of age, image, or acting skills!"

"You play the male lead?"

"I don't act... I'm just a producer!"

"Do you like her?"

Shen Liang was speechless: "Are you mentally ill? When I met her, she was only 15 years old. We filmed "The Wandering Earth" together, and the little girl suffered a lot with us... Besides, what kind of film do I like? , don’t you know?”

"What do you like?"

"A person over 1.7 meters tall, someone as...feminine as you!"

"You just know how to coax me!"

"I'm so unjust. Isn't it okay to tell the truth these days?"

"...Hmph..." Rouba rolled his eyes at him, and then asked: "Then what's going on with "Canglan Jue"?"

Shen Liang: "Oh, that's a drama that iQiyi asked me to film... I happen to want to act in an ancient puppet fairy drama, so I took it!"

"Am I not suitable for that drama?"

"...If it suits you, I won't dare to film a drama with you!"

"Why?"

"You have to consider the schedule... A drama takes at least two months. After "Secretary Kim", we will shoot "New Travel Notes". After "New Travel Notes", I will join the cast of "Canglan Jue". At least it will take more than two months." Photographed until June…”

Rouba interrupted him: "So? Are you annoying me?"

Brother Liang clapped his fingers and said, "Just do the math for seven months...three times a day. Even if I'm made of iron, I can't help but do this!"

Rouba was a little embarrassed, but couldn't help but retort: ​​"You tease me every day!"

"Tell your voice lower!" Shen Liang made a downward gesture, and then said: "I have to find a state for you, otherwise, your eyes will be dull every day, you will be tired, and you will look uncomfortable..."

Rouba was surprised: "My eyes are dull?"

"What do you think? You don't even read the comments?"

Shen Liang turned on his phone and casually searched for 'Rouba status'. He immediately got the answer. He showed it to Rouba, who muttered in a low voice, '...Beauty is beautiful, but her eyes are getting more and more hollow. Eyes are the windows to the soul, and they can convey emotions even when we are tired and sleepy. But in recent years, especially this year, the look in Nurouba’s eyes is no longer sleepy, only chaos...'

Shen Liang said: "But in your play, your eyes are moving, your spirit is high, and you are in high spirits every day. What do you think is the reason?"

"Did I sleep well? Did I eat well?"

"Yes... I must be at least half of the credit for your ability to relax so much... All my hard work is due to my responsibility for art!"

Rouba was silent for a while, seemed to have thought of something, and rolled his eyes at him: "...You are so shameless!"

"What happened again?"

"Then you are also responsible for art if you put it on my face or mouth?"

"Oh, that's responsible for life!"

"Pooh!"

Shen Liang looked at her and thought about asking for leave...

Take it easy for a day or two!

Although he is very capable, he is not a professional player after all...

Then the director came over and said, "What are we talking about?"

Shen Liang immediately said: "As for the script...director, is it ready for filming?"

"Um…"

"Okay... Sister Rouba, it's time to shoot!"

"good!"

Rouba's words are concise and concise, and she looks like a cold goddess...

…

When "The Beginning" aired, "Ace Force" aired for seven days!

"Ace Force", an iQiyi S+ drama series, cost over 350 million.

In today's film and television drama market, the cost exceeds 200 million, even if it is an S+ top drama.

Under the main theme of Dongfeng, the key projects of the competent authorities are divided up by a few leading companies every year.

For example, the anti-epidemic dramas "Together" and "Meritor", etc., have a high concentration of head resources!

A quick aside: CCTV’s purchase price has never been high, so why are so many dramas willing to be broadcast on CCTV?

Because dramas are broadcast on CCTV, there is no need to worry about ratings, and payment is returned faster. After the basic drama is broadcast, the payment will be settled in one go...

Some second- and third-tier satellite TV stations not only have serious delays in payment, but also suppress dramas and are slow to set schedules. However, no matter how low the price is, CCTV will definitely give you a clear answer.

Also, the price on paper is not the final price.

The TV station will tell the film studio that due to changes in the market environment, the previously signed price no longer matches, and a supplementary agreement must be signed to reduce the price. If the film producer doesn't sign, the TV station may keep suppressing the drama and not air it. If the film producer doesn't air it, the film producer won't get the money back.

Moreover, due to the influence of policies, satellite TV has fewer and fewer schedules for market-oriented dramas. The State Administration’s control over satellite TV has been specific to the arrangement of dramas. What dramas will be shown at each node is arranged a year in advance. Other dramas Can't get in at all.

Some main theme projects, such as "Stone Blossoms", are even broadcast simultaneously on the five major first-line satellite TVs and Guangdong Satellite TV, and are not subject to the "one drama, two stars" restriction.

Of course, dramas starring Shen Liang have always been top dramas, and real top platforms will still cost a lot of money to compete for!

Last year, the most profitable show was Lotus Tower: two major TV stations each paid 3 million yuan per episode, Tencent Video paid 3 million yuan per episode, Youku paid 2.8 million yuan per episode, and iQiyi paid 2.7 million yuan per episode, totaling 14.5 million yuan per episode, with copyright income of about 14.5 million x 40 = 580 million yuan.

The subsequent second-round copyright, third-round copyright + overseas copyright income is close to 200 million yuan!

Storm Chasers has not yet been aired, and currently, CCTV-1's prime time bids more than 1 million yuan per episode - this is their standard!

Tengxun offered 7 million yuan per episode to buy out the new media copyright...

The cost of Storm Chasers was only 250 million yuan - Shen Liang's salary for the series will not exceed 20% of the total cost. Of course, he can participate in the copyright profit sharing, about 20%...

Back to Ace Troops, iQiyi offered 400 million yuan to buy the exclusive broadcast rights...

Sometimes I really wonder if the group responsible for purchasing took kickbacks!

For a show like Ace Troops, you spent 400 million yuan?

How many members do you have to exploit to get the 400 million?

For one member, I will calculate that the price will increase by 100 yuan a year.

That means 4 million members!

4 million members' money to support a drama with young actors? Or a bad movie that humiliates soldiers!

Oh, in the original time and space, the data and popularity of "Ace Troops" were not very high. Whether it was Cloud and Data or Cool Cloud Data, including Detawen Data, none of them made it into the top 20 of the annual list...

It didn't even beat "Special Warfare Glory"!

So, it's normal that it can't beat "Beginning"...

If it's the same, fans are likely to be dissatisfied and say that "Beginning" relies entirely on marketing, but... the gap is too big, whether it's word of mouth or data, it's crushed.

How do you do it?

Go to Douban to give it one star?

Shen Liang's national popularity is here!

By the way, after "Beginning" was broadcast, several major TV stations bought the afternoon show...

It's normal. "Beginning" is about time loops and it's unlikely to be broadcast in prime time.
