Chapter 207, Storm Focus
This time, the media focused on Li Yun. Mainly, there was nowhere else to focus.
Or say.
Li Yun has a very natural conflict point, a conflict point that the media simply cannot ignore.
He had issues with both crews This was the basic point of conflict.
An actor discarded by "New Police Story".
Then he went to "Kung Fu" and was picked up by Stephen Chow to play the leading villain.
This conveys the message.
Probably.
Master Xing went to pick up the bargain.
As for picking up a real leak.
It really is something that other people don't want.
From the perspective of the opponent being Wu Yanzu who has the trait of being "handsome".
Then probably, it must be something that other people don’t want.
Probably that stubborn Star.
What is the result of insisting on having one's own way?
From here, the media starts to operate. From this aspect, the offensive of public opinion begins.
"How can you say that they picked up others' elimination? It was obviously Zhou Xingxing and his crew who had a keen eye for talent." At this moment, Jiang Chenggang was very angry: "It's worse than picking up leaks. These media really know how to talk."
Picking up a bargain at least means that it might be a good item.
Picking up things that others don't want is just pure mockery.
The kind of ridicule that makes people laugh.
The kind of ridicule without any reservation is also the view of many media in the industry.
after all.
In a sense.
The supporting cast in "New Police Story" is indeed one level higher than that in "Kung Fu" overall.
And, most importantly, the two people in charge have very different personalities.
Although both of them are Hong Kong's treasures and top-notch actors.
But their personalities are completely different. Cheng Shilong is just a little overbearing, but he will never emphasize his authority and have the final say.
He is quite obedient.
Zhou Xingxing, he won't listen to advice and will scold you.
If it is said that Cheng Shilong only exercises his willfulness in certain areas.
Then, Stephen Chow will probably be willful, do his own thing and be overbearing to everyone from beginning to end.
This is where the two differ a little bit beyond being actors.
It is precisely because of this that all major media outlets have inferred one thing.
The planning of "New Police Story" will be stronger than that of "Kung Fu". After all, there is a slight difference in the attitude of the main creators. In addition, Emperor Entertainment Group and Wu Yanzu's agency are doing things to add fuel to the fire. The focus is also on the selection of supporting roles. When the supporting cast on this side is much better than that on the other side, the balance of public opinion will tilt.
And at this moment.
Li Yun closed the newspaper and turned to surf the Internet. Unconsciously, we have almost entered the Internet age.
It's just that no one has discovered it yet.
"Oh my god, this is what all online media do."
Whether it is Sina Sohu or NetEase, the media sections above do not have too much personal bias in their box office predictions for this period, but in fact, when many keywords in the news above are talking about Stephen Chow's autocracy.
In fact, the bias in stance is quite obvious.
In a sense.
It is true that Stephen Chow's popularity in the industry is not as good as Cheng Shilong's.
This is indeed something that everyone can see.
The prediction is that this time, Stephen Chow will fail in such a subtle place. "Li Zi, why don't you say anything? You have such a big heart."
"Whatever I say here now is useless. Can my presence affect their publicity or the quality of our film?" Li Yun patted Jiang Chenggang on the shoulder and said, "Calm down, calm down and let the heat fly for a while."
Jiang Chenggang also hesitated to speak.
In fact, he was indeed a little scared in his heart.
Many media outlets are actually right.
In terms of supporting roles, "New Police Story" is indeed much better.
Moreover, in "New Police Story", Wu Yanzu is indeed a special second-tier actor. He has a unique trait called "handsomeness" that makes him different from other actors. Not to mention that he has a background and people to support him, actors with special traits have the opportunity to stand out even if no one supports him.
Traits and characteristics are so important in this industry.
Although Li Yun is handsome, he is nowhere near as handsome as Wu Yanzu. At that level ... he still doesn't have his own interpretation characteristics.
Supporting roles.
"New Police Story" is strong.
Moreover, Stephen Chow is autocratic and does not listen to discipline in various areas.
That’s actually not even news in the industry.
This time it was nothing more than exposure.
In fact, this time the industry opinion.
It was indeed a big blow to Stephen Chow, because his bad relationship with Andrew Ng was exposed due to the "unintentional" exaggeration of the media this time.
This also gave many people a sense of sudden enlightenment.
"Kung Fu" was clearly directed by Stephen Chow himself.
But there was no Andrew Ng.
Isn't it intriguing enough that this golden supporting actor who became famous almost at the same time as Stephen Chow did not follow him to this original film he directed and starred in?
When these intriguing things appear.
When many circulating "rumors" are confirmed, it will have unpredictable impact on the movie itself.
at this time.
Undoubtedly, this time the public opinion exploded.
It has an absolute advantage over "New Police Story", and it also makes people pay more attention to this battle between the two heroes.
People outside of the Hong Kong circle are all paying attention to the competition during this National Day period.
"It's really interesting that two top actors are both uncompromising in their own willfulness and have to attack each other during their schedule together."
At this time, Li Mo was reading the newspaper at home and said lightly.
Top actors are qualified to exercise their freedom and willfulness.
The type that even investors and bosses have to give in to.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
but.
“The movies and circles you’re in are totally different from theirs,” Liu Meng said lightly at this time, and there was even a hint of disapproval in his words. As a red artist, he didn’t look down on those who were promoted by popular culture.
Even if one's status reaches that of Stephen Chow or Cheng Shilong.
For artists like them who have obtained military ranks and extraordinary status through performing arts.
They all look down upon it.
"The future belongs to the young. We old guys will eventually move towards popular culture." Li Modu said lightly.
"If you say so, then so be it."
Liu Meng did not comment on this. She and her husband had some differences on this point.
But she won't argue, let alone quarrel.
Because the family is a role model of the times.
It must be harmonious.
Must be smiling.
Even though Liu Meng had some doubts about him, he still had to play the role of a peacemaker.
"Is it Li Yun again?" Liu Meng looked at the newspaper and said, "I keep feeling his name appearing recently."
"It's not an uncommon name. Is there anything strange about it?"
"No, it's not strange. It's just that recently, Peng Yuyan, Liu Yehong, and the two of us younger generations have met this Li Yun, a new generation actor, while filming."
Liu Meng was still observing her husband.
I found that he really didn't have any emotional fluctuations.
No, for this name. Liu Meng continued at this time.
"According to what they said, Li Yun's mental state is not very good. He seems to have some mental illness. It's a bit weird that he's a bit insane."
"It's just a gimmick. They just want to establish their own personality, just like Wu Yanzu said that he is the most handsome man in the five thousand years of Chinese history." Li Modu seemed to be used to this. He paused and said, "The audience knows the details. The audience can judge our works. They are not made for ourselves. The actors' personalities are not made for us to see."
Liu Meng was silent for a long time, but finally smiled brightly.
Seems to be a surprise.
Her own husband.
It seems that there really is some special relationship with this young actor named Li Yun.
If that's true.
That would be great.
Then, Liu Meng "transformed" herself into that virtuous wife.
A virtuous singing artist, an excellent daughter-in-law of the Li family, she enjoys the treatment of a military rank and is a top singer who also has her own treatment within the system.
And Li Modu was also smiling brightly at this time.
Two people.
They all had a tacit understanding in their hearts and put on their own masks.
Following what everyone can see This is such an ironic thing But both of them followed this inner rule.
At this time, Li Modu also talked about work. He wanted to go and see "Kung Fu" this time. The reason was very simple.
Because it is necessary.
Although Liu Meng doesn't think much of popular culture, Li Mo still wants to go and see this work. As a filmmaker, he needs to understand popular culture and needs to understand the movie "Kung Fu".
Whether it is "Kung Fu".
It’s still “New Police Story”.
He had to go see it, no matter what for his career.
Or it is paving the way for your future son. These are all indispensable things.
However, when I wanted to talk to my son about this in the evening, I found that my son was still in the bar at this time.
Only when this happened did Li Mo not want to play the role of a model husband. He said gloomily, "You gave him money to go to the bar again?"
"He's still young, so what's wrong with him going to a bar? Nowadays, all young people go to bars to have fun."
"But you can't let him go every day. He's only twenty years old. Aren't you afraid that he'll get into trouble and come back to you? The last time he got drunk and mad, you had to clean up his mess. It was already a big problem."
Liu Meng disagrees with this.
Only when he came into contact with his son Li Yichun.
She won't think about the pros and cons.
Pamper him.
Love him.
All my status and wealth belong to my son. (End of this chapter)
