Donnie Yen , one of the most popular kung fu actors in China!
Although he became popular a little late, many young friends born in the 1980s and 1990s grew up watching his movies. To the later " fuse ", "Slaying the Wolf", and his famous "Ip Man" series, they are all very exciting and worthy of many appreciations!

But what makes people incomprehensible is that this year, Donnie Yen broke into the Mid-Autumn Festival with the transformation movie "Search and Rescue". Wan, even Donnie Yen's own salary is not enough!
You have to know that the cost of this play is 200 million yuan. The filming is located in Changbai Mountain, and the shooting difficulty is very high. It takes more than 600 million box office to make a return!

Someone will ask, Donnie Yen is a kung fu star, and his best-selling movies are also martial arts movies, why did he suddenly make disaster movies?
The vast majority of netizens believe that Donnie Yen is too old and needs a transformation. Jackie Chan, , Jet Li, and have all gone through this step, but after "Search and Rescue", Donnie Yen has directed and acted "Qiao Feng of the Eight Parts of Heaven" non-stop. Biography", proving that he can fight, and he has not given up on kung fu movies!
What is the reason?
This starts with what Jackie Chan said in an interview a few years ago! After

Wolf Warrior 2 took 5.6 billion box office, Jackie Chan said: I often go with me, I said your play must fail, why? You follow the trend, you want to make money, quasi-death, if you go to film for the box office, you will definitely die. In the past, when my box office was 108 million, wow, 108 million, now, wow, 5 billion, do you think it is a lot? Not much, for so many years, I have not said to follow suit. I have no expectations for the box office. If it is for the box office, I might as well shoot Zuiquan 2345678910 and keep filming. This way I will not be an actor and the box office will not be very good. , the audience doesn't know how to accept it, but you can't think that the box office is not good, you don't make this kind of movie, you need to develop in many ways as an actor!
From this passage, we can see that in Jackie Chan's opinion, actors who follow suit to shoot certain types of movies for the sake of box office will not end well!

Take the movie "Search and Rescue" as an example. It is a typical disaster film. In the past few years, disaster films and family films have indeed achieved good results. The representative work is "The Wandering Earth", but this is not It doesn't mean that all actors have to make disaster films. Donnie Yen's advantage is his kung fu, not his acting skills!
Of course, for Donnie Yen, the filming of "Search and Rescue" may be just for money, not for transformation. When the epidemic is serious, it is already very good to have the opportunity to make a movie!
Finally, I hope that in the years to come, actors can make movies that suit them, don't blindly follow the trend, and don't make bad movies just to make money!
