I didn't want to be an actor

Nowadays, when it comes to movie reviews, the audience can’t say anything bad, otherwise, you will be a negative fan, and the film studio will have to find a lawyer...

The older generation of directors are very conceited!

I don’t even want to reflect on the success rules of commercial films. I have always stayed in the era when large state-owned studios and CCTV invested in one-stop broadcasting, regardless of profits and losses.

Therefore, it is easy to attribute the success caused by the collective wisdom and the dividends of the times to one's own unique artistic sense.

At that time, "Confucius" directed by Hu Mei was released at the same time as "Avatar". She said that "Avatar" is "nothing interesting except stunts" and "a group of little elves flying around."

Further back in time, the "Jinling Evening News" excerpted a news item: Feng Xiaoning, Zhang Yimou, and Huang Shuqin were not optimistic about the famous Chinese director's critical review of "Titanic", and they all said that "Titanic" may win the world. Audiences welcomed it, but as far as "movies" go, the film was little more than a money-splitting game. ’

Similar to them is Ding Sheng...who blames the audience for his box office failure.

Many veteran filmmakers are now under the impact of the trends of the times, and their creativity cannot keep up.

After the new film received negative reviews, they chose to resist, feel aggrieved, defend themselves desperately, and were unwilling to accept it.

This did not help the movie's box office, and it caused a lot of controversy for individuals.

Oh, Ding Sheng's film was directly criticized by director Xie Fei. At the post-screening press conference, Ding Sheng also defended himself, saying, "It is difficult to promote the film and there are barriers to viewing. It is not particularly easy to watch. Nowadays, many people like to watch short videos." , People who never leave their mobile phones may not be able to read it, so the reputation will be polarized.

Director Xie Fei said directly: "You can't find the right point in your publicity. It may be because your genre is unclear, your suspense is unclear, your sensationalism is not focused, and your laughs are not focused. These may cause the publicity to not be able to find the right point, and you use the famous Yang Yang." Honey, but only in the second half of her play, which may cause problems. ’

The same goes for Gao Qunshu, who posted on Weibo that ""Point of Knife" and "Trident" were both filmed before the epidemic, and both went through many hardships.

The investment has not exceeded 100 million, and I personally invested almost half of it.

Because money is scarce, friends come to act as friends and help make guest appearances, all based on friendship.

They asked for almost no money.

Why?

Everyone loves movies.

Thank them forever.

I am also forever grateful to the audiences who watched these two movies.

Criticism, I will accept it.

To be insulted, I can only reply: Fuck you. ’

Then there was Gao Zhi at the bottom: "Director Gao, please calm down." I think "The Wind" and "Hunter Chang" are good films, but "Point of Knife" and "Trident" really don't agree. It’s hard for me and you. It’s become a luxury for me to spend money to go to the cinema, even in third-tier cities! ’

"Shanghai Fortress" was ridiculed, with several Weibo posts saying "This is a bad movie"...

In fact, these directors are constantly praised by people in the small circles around them, and they have long been separated from the masses and away from real creation. Many real evaluations are considered by them to be treason and rebellion against Tiangang.

In fact, there is no need. The audience no longer cares about the rights and wrongs.

…

When he arrived at the hotel, Shen Liang took a shower and then went to sleep...

It was almost night when I woke up.

After changing clothes and washing up, I walked to the living room and saw Rouba sitting on the sofa playing with his mobile phone.

"You're here..."

"Um...have you slept well?"

Shen Liang sat down next to her, looked at her mobile phone screen, she was playing Honor of Kings, and said casually: "Aren't you the one who endorses..."Archangel of Glory"?"

"Endorsements are endorsements...haven't you ever endorsed a game?"

"I don't play games..." Shen Liang shook his head: "After this game, let's go down to eat!"

"...The director and others are here too..."

"Then Jiang Long and Zhang Chi are also here?"

"Well, they're all downstairs... contacting the publicity staff..."

Shen Liang took out his cell phone and complained: "Then why didn't you call me?"

"Mr. Chen said you are too tired..."

"...Is this game over?"

"Five minutes left..."

"Okay, after you finish the fight, let's go down!" Shen Liang took out his mobile phone and started to check the filming news...

"New Travels" starts screening tonight, with prime theaters accounting for 60%, and nearly 50,000 shows scheduled - "Jurassic World 3" is not very impressive, with a box office of less than 25 million on weekdays...

Theaters are betting on "New Travels".

"New Travel Notes" has released materials on five platforms: Weibo, WeChat, Douyin, Xiaohongshu and Douban...

They all went viral, especially Douyin - nearly fifteen promotional videos were released, most of them showing the two faces of Ma Liangren played by Shen Liang...

Especially the clip of choosing a concubine for the concert, which has nearly 30 million likes and more than one million comments...

Everyone is saying, ‘If this is included in the feature film, I will definitely buy a ticket! ’

There is also a clip that mocks the character played by Rouba for not knowing how to eat caviar...

The main promotion is 'equal satirical domestic entertainment for everyone 208! ’

Even the hip-hop song "Young Boss" written by Shen Liang specifically for Ma Liang to promote his fashion brand has lyrics that look down on ordinary people, "You have never seen the world, I think you can experience it in the next life"...

Show off wealth…

Shen Liang specifically posted on Weibo to explain, 'This lyrics was automatically generated by me using the Rap Rhyme Assistant, so it has no connotation...it has nothing to do with me...'

"New Travel Notes" is very popular...

I guess the screening tonight will be good.

After scrolling for a while, Rouba put away his phone: "Let's go..."

"Um…"

…

"We can see that in the "video sharing" data, the popularity of "New Travel Notes" exceeds 120 million, indicating that it has stimulated users' strong desire to share..."

The distribution team and the publicity team are discussing distribution strategies.

Conclusion: "We can join forces with Douyin to do a live broadcast!"

Liu Xunzimo asked: "Won't you join forces with Weibo?"

“Weibo’s daily activity index is far lower than Douyin’s…”

"Shen Liang, what do you think?"

"Everything is fine..." Shen Liang had no objection to this: "How do you arrange it, how do we do it... After all, you are professionals!"

"...That's it for today. Let's have a good rest tonight. Let's start the road show tomorrow!"

The staff left, and Shen Liang suddenly remembered something: "Have you all watched the movie?"

Jiang Long, Zhang Chi and Rouba all shook their heads: "No..."

"Neither do I..." Shen Liang looked at the assistant and said, "Please book a few tickets and let's go see a movie together!"

"…good."

Liu Xunzi was not confused: "Didn't you read it twice?"

Shen Liang shook his head: "I saw the rough cut and the unscorched version. I haven't seen the theatrical version... Do you want to come with me?"

Zimo said: "I won't go. I have been watching it for the past few months and I almost vomited... I really don't want to watch it again!"

"Okay...how far is the nearest cinema to us?"

“…it’s not bad, less than one kilometer, but the attendance rate is quite high…”

"It's okay, they are all wearing masks, so they can't be recognized!"

As soon as Shen Liang finished speaking, Jiang Long said: "We are not going!"

"ah?"

"We have to go back to the room and rest early. You and Sister Rouba can go!"

Way to go!
