Once upon a time, Hong Kong films were infinitely brilliant, but in recent years the popularity of Hong Kong films has been declining at a speed visible to the naked eye. Of course, this is related to the problems of Hong Kong films themselves, but it is undeniable that Hong Kong films have made a large number of powerful actors famous, and Chen Xiaochun is one of them.
Although Jordan Chan is not as popular as Andy Lau and Tony Leung Chiu-wai, he still wins the love of many fans with his changeable acting style. When mentioning Jordan Chan, the movie "Young and Dangerous" cannot be avoided.
In 1996, the movie "Young and Dangerous" was released. Although it was not optimistic, the movie achieved a counterattack at the word-of-mouth and box office. Jordan Chan, who played the "Pheasant" in the film, began to be recognized by the audience.
After that, Jordan Chan successively participated in many works of the "Young and Dangerous" series and achieved good response. To be honest, Jordan Chan's appearance at that time made people doubt that he was not acting. I thought that with Jordan Chan's appearance and acting style, There won't be any big developments in the future.
What people didn't expect was that in 1998, Jordan Chan starred in the TV series "The Deer and the Cauldron", playing the role of "Wei Xiaobao" in the drama. After getting used to seeing the pheasant brother who can change everything, Jordan Chan's Wei Xiaobao was unexpectedly good. In "The Deer and the Cauldron", The great success also means that Jordan Chan has got rid of the stereotype left by Brother Pheasant to the audience.
Later, Jordan Chan starred in more and more works, including comedies, science fiction films, action films, and horror films. His wide range of dramas also made Jordan Chan famous.
In 2010, Jordan Chan married Cai'er Ying. After marriage, Jordan Chan put his work focus on his family, and he and Cai'er Ying are also regarded as a model couple in the entertainment industry.
Today's Chen Xiaochun can be said to be a sure winner in life.
However, it was recently reported by Hong Kong media that Jordan Chan's new drama "Anti-Gangster 2" was completely suspended due to financial problems, and hundreds of actors were tragically affected. This news triggered a heated discussion among netizens.
The TV series "Anti-Black" starring Jordan Chan and Chen Guokun achieved good reputation and ratings after its launch in 2017. Therefore, in 2023, six years later, it was announced that the second season would officially start filming.
It is reported that the investment amount in the second season is as high as 200 million. In addition to the return of the original cast members such as Chen Xiaochun and Chen Guokun, the second season also invited many Hong Kong stars such as Xie Tianhua and Chen Ying to join the cast. Judging from the cast, the second season has indeed A big improvement.
In November last year, the filming ceremony of "Anti-Black" was held, and then the filming officially started. However, after the filming started, it was a bumpy road. Recently, the production was completely stopped due to financial problems, which directly caused many actors in the drama to have no scenes to film.
TVB is not like domestic entertainment. Many actors rely on filming to support their families. After the complete shutdown, it will still have a great impact on them.
According to media reports, the reason for the suspension of work is that the sky-high investment of 200 million scared the "financiers" and they chose to withdraw their capital. One of the financiers, Shao Shaw, did not dare to be impulsive and was only willing to invest 10 million. In this case, he could only Reluctantly stopped work.
The production team is currently actively looking for "new investors" to invest. If everything goes well, filming is expected to resume at the end of April.
I have to say that today’s Hong Kong drama market is really not optimistic. The format is single and the market is too small. As a result, TVB can only cut back on food and clothing. More and more Hong Kong stars are coming to the mainland for development, and the brain drain has dimmed the once glorious TVB star. If things continue like this, TVB really has no chance of turning around!
