The potential of comedians is unlimited. Jia Ling, who once entertained the audience on the sketch stage, is now the most box office female director in the mainland. Li Huanying" has made her a high-profile new star in the director world.
Huang Bo and Xu Zheng, who are famous for their comedy films, can not only make the audience laugh until they fall asleep, but also make the audience burst into tears. Huang Bo's reputation as the best actor is convincing, and Xu Zheng once starred in "I'm Not the God of Medicine" " and "No Man's Land" are both word-of-mouth works.
Even Jia Bing, who has starred in so many tepid movies and even bottomed out in reputation, still became popular in "Hurry Up", and even when the character was offline, the audience felt it was a pity.
What is even more regrettable is that Jia Bing returned to his original position after the popularity of "Cyclone". For him, the bonus of "Cyclone" is only the discussion enthusiasm of netizens and short-term goodwill, and there is no resource upgrade or coffee. Bit promotion.
Jia Bing's new film "What's in the Zoo?" 》 is the best proof.
01
was a hit at the box office, its reputation collapsed, and Jia Bing became the king of bad movies?
shows the movie "What's in the Zoo?" based on data. "" opened with an opening score of only 5.3 points. While its reputation collapsed, the movie's box office performance became even more dismal.
It is reported that the movie "What's in the Zoo?" "The box office on the first day was only 9.84 million, and the platform predicted that the film's final box office would be only 80 million.
Some netizens bluntly said that is "extremely juvenile, and it is not recommended to watch if you are over ten years old." . Some netizens commented on , "I don't know what is in the zoo, but there must be deceived audiences in the cinema."
Based on the plot, "What's in the Zoo?" "is a remake of the Korean version of "Secret Zoo". The original version's rating performance was very weak. After localizing the same story, it lost new ideas and creativity, and "What's in the Zoo?" "The style and positioning of "The Movie" is too child-oriented. Isn't it a complete "fraud" to find actors like Bao Beier and Jia Bing, who often appear in adult comedies, to star in a family-friendly children's movie?
Nowadays, "What's in the Zoo?" "It's more like a team building for Northeastern comedians. Many plots and scenes in the movie are completely absurd and childish, such as pandas playing on the horizontal bar and orangutans drinking beer, all of which are completely nonsensical.
As for the characters in the movie, they are all outrageous in their own way, but they all have a common characteristic: they don’t have high IQs.
An animal expert who can’t tell real and fake pandas, a manager who suppresses employees, employees who don’t know how to adapt at all, each character is like a clown, the character’s motivation is completely unreasonable, and the outbreak of conflicts is as simple as children’s play house Perfunctory.
Even viewers who have not seen the original movie can still watch "What's in the Zoo?" "In the first ten minutes of the plot, the ending is foreseen.
What's worse is that Bao Beier and Jia Bing's new film has such a bad reputation, but I take it for granted. Looking at the cast list of the movie, among them Bao Beier, Song Xiaofeng, and Pan Binlong have been in bad movies over the years.
Jia Bing is the only one who can hold up the drama and is more popular with the audience, but appearing in this movie also feels ridiculous like shooting himself in the foot.
02
Bad movies hurt people's hearts, and the decline in reputation is a foregone conclusion
After "Hurious", the audience's favor for Jia Bing doubled. His humorous screen image and intense acting skills made Xu Jiang, the gangster in "Hurious", But the opportunities the role brought him were not grasped by him.
In 2023, Jia Bing had many works that met the audience, but after leaving Zhang Songwen, the reputation of his works plummeted. The movie "Can You Leave Me" scored 2.5 points on Douban and only had 2,000 comments.
's "Guess I Am a Hero", "Unfortunate Dad's Happy Event" and "Beier Likes You", which were released immediately, all stuck at 3.7 points tacitly.
Even the most outrageous one is "Let's Play". The box office on the first day was only 100,000. The popularity of the movie was bleak. So far, the number of reviewers has not reached the standard for the movie to score.
Obviously, Jia Bing has the ability to perform wonderful works, but unfortunately on the road of waiting to become famous, Jia Bing is indeed not a person who cherishes feathers. He has very low requirements for scripts, which led to the explosion of "Hurry" After that, the audience finally began to pay attention to Jia Bing's works, but found that the average score of his works was always at the level of three or four. He was deeply involved in comedy, and the characters he performed were all bloody characters with abnormal logic.
How does Jia Bing break the situation? It’s actually very simple, just make a clear connection with bad works.
is like the movie "What's in the Zoo?" "" is not a movie starring Jia Bing in the first place. He could have posted a poster to cooperate with the film's promotion, but he was particularly active.
went on a variety show to promote the movie, using the popular role of Xu Jiang as a gimmick, and I can't wait to watch "What's in the Zoo?" "The character he created dances like Xu Jiang's persona.
But when the audience walked into the cinema with the expectations he gave, they discovered that it was all a scam. This scam defrauded a small amount of box office and made the audience lose their trust in Jia Bing.
How can Jia Bing save his reputation now? It's very simple, look for "Zhang Songwen".
Give up starring in any bad movies, bad dramas, or bad productions, and get more involved with supporting roles in some excellent dramas, such as Xu Jiang in "Hurry", and try not to partner with actors like Bao Beier, who has a bad reputation. Even if he is a supporting role, It is necessary to partner with some leading actors with outstanding actor labels and strong drama resistance, such as Zhang Songwen, Zhang Yi, Huang Bo, Shen Teng, etc.
On the surface, Jia Bing's reputation plummeted after leaving Zhang Songwen, but in fact, his own position as an actor was too vague. Who has not experienced the confusion stage?
Zhang Songwen, who was once far less famous than Jia Bing, is also a professional actor, but his requirements for taking on roles are obviously higher. From "The Hidden Corner" to "Hurry Up", Zhang Songwen has always cherished his wings as an actor. He treats the audience and himself His work is full of responsibility.
In addition, Jia Bing's performance style is too single, including Xu Jiang in "Hurry", who also has a very obvious personality of Jia Bing, but if you want to break through, you must make changes and break out of the comedy shell and routines. Only by choosing subjects that have never been tried before can the audience truly recognize the acting skills.
After all, the audience has expectations for Jia Bing, but if this continues, there will be one more "What's in the Zoo?" "With a movie like this, the audience will completely lose patience with Jia Bing.
Jia Bing's next upcoming works "Flying Life 2" and "Tang Dao Ji" will almost determine the life and death of Jia Bing's reputation. As for whether to cut off the seat or actively promote it, it depends on Jia Bing's own opinion on the quality and reputation of the film. judged.
