Pan Changjiang is a well-known comedy performing artist. He has produced many excellent works in his youth, especially in sketches. His performance is particularly outstanding. He has appeared on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala many times and participated in many local Spring Festival Galas.
Nowadays, Pan Changjiang is no longer young, and his career is not as brilliant as before. He even changed his career to become an Internet celebrity and started live streaming. Now Pan Changjiang seems to have become a marginal figure in the entertainment industry.
Recently, Pan Changjiang, who has been silent for a long time, finally met everyone with his new film "Doubao County Magistrate". Although well-known veteran actors such as Yuan Qiongdan, Cai Ming and Zhang Li joined the film, as well as outstanding comedians such as Pan Binlong and Wei San, the final box office performance of the film was not ideal, which was a bit of a slap in the face to the stars.
After watching the film, many netizens said that "Doubao County Magistrate" is somewhat similar to Pan Changjiang's previous work "Donkey County Magistrate". There are many similarities in both the story and the characters. They even wanted to watch the remake. Movie feel.
Many viewers began to suspect that Pan Changjiang's artistic creative thinking has long been exhausted. He has exhausted his skills and will never be able to return to his peak.
This is indeed the case. Pan Changjiang has indeed had no good works in recent years. Especially after focusing on bringing goods, Pan Changjiang mainly relies on live broadcasts to make money, and no longer relies on comedy sketches to "make a living". He has long been slack on artistic creation.
Although Pan Changjiang often shoots some jokes online, the quality is not high. Many of the scripts are old jokes, or they are just funny and cute, without the slightest look of an old artist.
Coupled with the mistakes he made during the previous live broadcast, in the eyes of many people, Pan Changjiang is no longer an old artist with both virtue and art, and it can even be said that he is no longer guaranteed.
Some of Pan Changjiang's previous works are quite good, and he has also made some good movies. For example, in the movie "Hands Up", Pan Changjiang left a deep impression on the audience, and everyone still recognized his acting ability and comedy talent.
Now Pan Changjiang wants to prove himself again through comedy. It seems that it is difficult and impossible to return to the public eye. Is this a problem of him running out of talent, or is it to blame the overall industry downturn? The rise of
short videos has taken away a lot of limelight from comedy. People just watch the videos to bring themselves happiness, and many viewers no longer pay attention to comedy performances.
So can we say that comedy is in decline? This is not necessarily the case. Comedy has many forms of expression, and works of art that can bring laughter and joy to everyone can be classified as comedy in a certain sense. Isn’t Guo Degang’s cross talk always very popular? Why can't comedy work?
I don’t know if you have paid attention to the "Annual Comedy Competition" series. There are many talented young actors on it, and they have brought you many excellent works through their own efforts.
For example, Jiang Shimeng, Zhang Zhehua, Zhang Chi and Jiang Long are all successful and their works are good. Many of their works have no problem getting into the Spring Festival Gala.
These actors are young and energetic, dare to innovate and accept challenges, have active minds and can come up with good jokes. These are the qualities that many outdated comedy artists lack.
So it’s not that comedy is no longer good, but that some actors have not kept up with the times and their abilities cannot keep up, so they will be eliminated.
Nowadays, Pan Changjiang is not good at carrying goods, and he is unable to do his job in his old business. I don’t know how he views his own development and how to arrange his life.
No matter what, I hope Pan Changjiang will not overturn again, or it will become a joke in the end, which would be too funny.
