I didn't want to be an actor

Chapter 827 Surprise (23)

Oh, actually, Shiji’s image comes from the “Sanjiao Sou Shen Daquan” in the late Yuan Dynasty. She is the villain…

In the "Three Religions Search for Gods", Shiji is the leader of all demons. Nezha shot Shiji's son to death with Tathagata's bow, and then Shiji led the demon army to take revenge. Nezha fought with her and finally got rid of Shiji...

So, in "The Legend of Nezha", Shiji is the main villain.

When "Investiture of the Gods" was written, it was obviously borrowed from "The Complete Collection of Gods of Three Religions", but it was not borrowed completely, so Nezha became the image of a demon child who cannot distinguish right from wrong!
Oh, mentioning "Investiture of the Gods"...

The promotion of "Fengshen" focuses on the industrialization of Chinese films!
The materials released are basically Wu Jing and Guo Fan visiting the set, and then bragging about how awesome the special effects are!
It's not necessary at all!
"Fengshen" started filming in 2018.

That is to say, when it was produced, its imaginary competitors were films of the same level as "Jade Dynasty", "Eternal Love", "Asura" and "The Legend of Wukong"...

In 2019, The Wandering Earth was released;
In 2021, "Underground Fire" was released;
In 2022, "The Lone Moon" and "Assassination of Novelist" will be released;
In the 2023 Spring Festival, "The Wandering Earth 2" will be released...

Do you still dare to brag about the special effects?

The special effects of "Shushan" are even better than "Assassination of Novelist" and can be compared with "Avatar"...

Even "Shushan" doesn't dare to boast about "redefining Chinese special effects"...

The advertisement is 'top special effects production'!
And the materials released are basically some words said by Ding Yin, played by Shen Liang, similar to "Life is fleeting, like a dream bubble. What is the purpose of living in this world?"
I don't want to die, but I'm not afraid of death.

I have already embarked on the road, and I will not regret it even if I die.'

'In this world, what is right or wrong? Who is right or wrong? It's just that everyone's path is different.'

And since we realize how small we are, we should become stronger.

We are insignificant to begin with, but we have become knowledgeable from ignorance.
You feel pain because you are growing. ', 'A person's life is a search for the Tao. '

Well, it’s all thanks to Shen Liang who sets the pace.

It also brought fame to Gu Zhenren and Da Ai Xianzun!
However, recently, related materials about Tsui Hark have started to be released...

"In fact, when Shen Liang and I were working together on "Zhou Chu", he suggested that I shoot another version of "Shushan"... I did have a good idea, but the pressure was too great and I didn't dare to do it. I had done it twice before. The Golden Harvest version of "New Shushan Swordsman" should have been filmed in 1983. That one lost a little money, and the 2001 "Shushan Biography" lost money again..."

"Later, we met again during the filming of The Battle at Lake Changjin. Shen Liang said that he would write the script and invited me to be the producer... He also showed me the early special effects templates of The Legend of Zu. They were really amazing, so I agreed!"

"His scripts can hardly be considered "Swordsman of Shu Mountain". The distinction between good and evil is different from that of our era. There is no absolute good... The trilogy has a complete story, and the ending is unexpected, but reasonable..."

enough!
Tsui Hark visited "Shushan" three times...

Shen Liang plays Ding Yin...

Only 8 video materials were released in total, and each one received more than 300 million likes. There are still ten days before the official release of "Shu Mountain: The Origin", and the official movie has gained one million fans on Douyin!
……

I almost forgot, on July 7th, not only "Octagon Cage", but also "Drug War 6: The End of the World" will be released!
It’s another movie that has been watched by many movie stars.

It is said to be a joint performance of six movie kings!

Directed by Herman Yau, starring Louis Koo, Aaron Kwok, Lau Ching Wan, Rou Ba, with special appearance by Law Ka Leung, and starring Tse Kwan Ho, Alex Fong, Chan Kwok Pong, Timmy Hung, Lau Ho Lung, Su Chen Rui, Yau Chien Fai, Lam Suet and others.

The first day box office was only 3300 million, the second day, 4600 million, and the third day box office was 3200 million...

It barely made over 100 million in the first weekend.

On weekdays, the filming schedule dropped directly to 6%...

Maoyan predicts the total box office will be 1.89 million!
Well, it is said that the cost of the whole play is as high as 3 million.

Even if it is not that high, it is certain that there will be losses...

With the box office failure of "Drug War 3", the "three lies" about Hong Kong movies can no longer be hidden...

Lie 1: Stars are a guarantee of box office success;

In the eyes of investors, with so many stars invited, the box office of "Drug War 3" would not be lower than the 13 billion of the second part. However, not only did it not make money, it even suffered losses!

This means that stars are not a guarantee of box office success, and if the script is not good, everything is in vain!
Lie 2: Hong Kong films have a large number of fans in mainland China; this is nonsense. Hollywood blockbusters have almost no fans in mainland China. How many people will buy into the sentiments of Hong Kong films?

As for the third lie, it is that Hong Kong film IP sequels can be popular...

Starting from "The King of Macau", "Anti-Corruption Storm" series, and of course "Drug War" series...

Reheating old stuff!
But...these old movies all made money!

Especially The Man from Macau, which was terrible, but the box office was quite good...

The first film sold 5.24 million;
The second part is 9.72 million;
The third part costs 11.16 billion!
The same is true for the "Anti-Corruption Storm" series, with box office revenue increasing:

The first part 9517 million;
The second part is 2.08 million;
The third and fourth films were 4.42 million and 7.99 million respectively...

The fifth film had a terrible reputation and was released during the same period as "The Annual Meeting Cannot Stop", which only sold 4.52 million...

That’s a lot of money!
The first installment of the "Drug War" series sold 2.37 million yuan; the second installment sold out immediately: 11.28 billion yuan - it met "The Devil"

Logically speaking, the third film should have grossed over 1 billion...

You think "Drug War 3" can win the award for the worst Hong Kong film this year? Haha, it's not over yet, this year there are also "Undercover", "Point Break", "The New Order"...

By the way, there is also a movie called “Don’t Call Me “God of Gamblers”!
Hong Kong films have completely declined!
……

In the crew of "West of Anxi", Shen Liang finished filming a scene and was standing and chatting with the staff - learning from Jackie Chan, there was no special seat for him in the crew!

As they were chatting, Cao Dun came over and said, "Brother Liang, let me introduce you to an actor!"

Introducing the actors?

"Who is it? So mysterious?"

Then a familiar face appeared in front of Shen Liang...

"Meat pie?"

"Yes, she plays the boss lady!" Cao Dun looked at his watch and said, "I'm leaving first. You two can chat slowly!"

Well, he is indeed a sensible director.

According to the plot, Lu Shisi needs to pass three levels. Guo Yuanzheng accompanies him in the first two levels. After passing them, Guo Yuanzheng dies. Lu Shisi continues to deliver copper coins, and then he meets the lady boss...

The erotic barrier, or the roadblock to the erotic barrier…

This level is the saddest!
Rouba plays the proprietress.

Shen Liang was a little surprised: "...Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Rouba blinked, raised an eyebrow and said, "I told you, there will be no surprise!"

“…Do you eat watermelon?”

"...I don't really feel like eating," Rouba asked quickly, "Where's Brother Jackie Chan?"

“…He left yesterday!”

Rouba's eyes widened: "Leaving? Why?"

Shen Liang said as if it was a matter of course: "My part is over, of course I'm leaving..."

"What a pity!"

Shen Liang remembered something: "…Did the box office failure of "Drug War 3" affect you?"
