The 2024 Spring Festival movies are actually very interesting. Among them, Jia Ling's "Hot and Spicy" is undoubtedly the biggest winner, followed by Han Han's "Flying Life 2", with a box office 1% lower than "Hot and Spicy". It’s over 2.4 billion, and “Article 20” with the best reputation is over 2.4 billion, which is quite a good result!
We should still remember that Andy Lau chose to withdraw from the Spring Festival show in the middle of "Mr. Red Carpet". The reason is actually very simple. It is simply that the box office was beaten by these three movies. Even a superstar like Andy Lau could not make it. The audience bought into it. Could it be that Andy Lau's appeal is no longer enough? Can you retire?
After "Mr. Red Carpet" was withdrawn, it was criticized by all parties and even criticized by CCTV. It is reported that Andy Lau's "Mr. Red Carpet" lost more than 230 million yuan. This result is undoubtedly regrettable Andy Lau's identity.
In fact, this is not the first time a movie starring Andy Lau has suffered such a loss. There were two earlier movies that also encountered unsatisfactory box office results, such as "Stealth" and "Goldfinger". I believe many fans have watched these two movies. Well, to be honest, does it look good? How many people bought tickets to watch it because they were fans of Andy Lau?
In fact, many people in the industry are discussing this issue regarding the bleak box office performance of movies. Some netizens say that it is because the movies starring Andy Lau lack quality. Andy Lau plays everything, and Andy Lau's acting skills are too average; many other netizens suggest that it should be The "King of Comedy" Stephen Chow must be invited out immediately. Only Stephen Chow can truly save the film market.
Recently, Hong Kong celebrity Xiang Tai was interviewed by reporters. In this interview, Xiang Tai also talked about some issues in the film market. In addition, she even bluntly said that the live broadcast industry is still very popular. For this reason, she suggested that celebrities can Consider developing in this direction. In the interview with
, Xiang Tai and Chen Lan clearly mentioned that Andy Lau's recent three movies were not good at the box office. Then she mentioned that the cost of making movies is very high and the film industry itself is not in recession. Then Xiang Tai mentioned live streaming, She also bluntly stated that she has achieved brilliant results by leading newcomers to do live broadcasts. The sales of one live broadcast were as high as 300 million. For this reason, she strongly recommended that celebrities move closer in this direction.
Obviously Xiangtai’s interview aroused heated discussion on the Internet, and soon there were countless comments in the comment area. Some voices supported Xiangtai’s decision to let the star develop in the direction of live broadcast;
and more Many netizens do not recommend it, and even say that celebrities should be banned from live broadcasting. Celebrities are stars, and not only celebrities and entertainers cannot live broadcast, but also officials and celebrities cannot live broadcast, because the gap between the rich and the poor in society is already scary. Well, if those celebrities continue to engage in live broadcasts, it will only arouse complaints from the common people.
Some netizens also refuted Xiang Tai’s remarks about the movie slump, and then mentioned Jia Ling, why can Jia Ling’s two movies in a row be a hit, but why are your movies dumped in the trash and no one watches them? Shouldn't we think more about how to improve the quality of movies? The quality of the movie is high, won’t the audience buy it?
To put it simply, there were too few people making movies in the past, so people had no choice. But now there are many high-quality movies, and people know how to appreciate them. For this reason, they naturally go to watch high-quality movies, and for garbage The movie naturally rejects it.
In addition, fans of Andy Lau are naturally very dissatisfied with their idol Andy Lau's live broadcast. After all, this is undoubtedly devaluing his own identity. After all, he is a superstar, and all the stars are doing live broadcasts. In the future, the film and television drama market On whom? Do they all rely on little fresh meat to act? In that case, the domestic film and television drama market will really be completely dead.
Do you all agree that Andy Lau should engage in live streaming to sell goods?
