has successfully invested in "Wolf Warrior 2" and "I'm Not a God of Medicine" in the cartoon "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" adapted from the character theme of "The Romance of the Gods", which has swept nearly 5 billion box office. The three big hits of "Wandering Earth", the Beijing Culture Company, which has won more than 10 billion box office, has also started the development of the [live-action version of Fengshen Universe]. The company’s "Fengshen" trilogy, the first The film will be released in the summer of 2020.
The film has a budget of 3 billion and 1 billion each. It is the largest production to date in the history of Chinese-language movies. The goal is to create the Chinese version of the "Lord of the Rings" series. It can be said to be a huge gamble!
once directed "Painted Skin 2" (700 million box office) and "Looking for the Dragon" (1.68 billion box office) director Wu Ershan. He has a strong ability to accurately control costs. Each film only used 800 million to complete the first The first and second filming.
Recently, the list of the four leading stars has also been announced.
Huang Bo plays Jiang Ziya, Li Xuejian plays Zhou Wen Wang Jichang, Fei Xiang plays Shang Zhou Wang, and the big boss Shen Gongbao, who has many roles from beginning to end, will be played by Xia Yu.
, a young and ambitious international actor, nearly ten years after fading out of the film and television industry, five years after "Looking for the Dragon" and "Big Golden Tooth", he finally received the resources of mainstream commercial masterpieces.
Xia Yu, at the age of 17, his debut film won one of the three major European film festivals, the actor of the Venice Film Festival, and the actor of the Golden Horse Award. On the high starting point of his acting career, the entire Chinese film industry is unparalleled. It is a pity that a new generation has been created in the past decade. Many of the audiences are already relatively unfamiliar with him, and even when watching his masterpiece "Sunny Day", many people actually thought it was "Liu Xing" (Zhang Yishan).
And many old movie fans will feel sorry for him with such a high starting point for his career, and after a long period of stagnation, "do not do business" all day, skateboarding, turning magic, surfing, and mountaineering.
In fact, at the turn of the century, from 1998 to 2008, Xia Yu was also recognized as a popular actor. He received a lot of good reputations or good movies at the box office:
"Diorama", Douban scored 7.4, and ranked tenth at the box office in 2000. , Golden Horse Awards, seven nominations and two awards, Tokyo Film Festival finalists, Golden Rooster Award and Huabiao Award for the best co-production film award.
"My Brothers and Sisters", Douban scored 7.1, third place in the 2001 box office.
"Carla is a Dog", Douban scored 7.2, ranked tenth at the box office in 2003, and was nominated for two Golden Rooster Awards. "Flowers bloom at that time", Douban 7.0 points.
"A Date with the Police", Douban scores 7.5, six nominations for the Golden Rooster Hundred Flowers Award, and the Huabiao Award for Outstanding Film, which made Xia Yu himself the winner of the Golden Rooster Award.
"Waiting Alone", Douban scores 8.2, partner Li Bingbing, three Golden Rooster award nominations, Tokyo Film Festival shortlisted, still the memories of a whole generation of fans, they consider it to be the best domestic youth film.
In addition, there are "In the Name of a Friend", "Firewall 7788", "Our 80s", "The Ugly World", "The Past of the Movie", "The Blow of the North Wind", "Fate under the Sky", "Langtaosha" and "I "French Years" and "The Flower Blooming" and many other film and television dramas starring Douban 7 or more
Xia Yu, as many as 22 movies and TV dramas with Douban 7 or more points. This is a very good data. The actors of the Mesozoic era can be regarded as outstanding, however, they are basically concentrated before 2008.
After 2008, he starred in the film and television series, actually only "Master", "Moscow Action" and "Looking for the Dragon Art" scored 7 points, not to mention only 3 points "Romantic Heaven", and Guan Xiaotong's "Overbearing President" "Fall in love with flight attendants" this kind of bad movie, with the theme song "You xx" out of the circle, it is really...not to mention it. What is the reason for
? Why is a young and strong young actor who has three heavyweight trophies in his hand and his personal honor is second only to Ge You and Tony Leung in the entire Chinese film world as a "national treasure actor", but he suddenly broke off at the golden age of his career Good film resources?
This matter is plain and simple, because at that time Xia Yu’s agent, Ms. Wang, was also one of the top agents in the industry. There were many first-line stars under Xia Yu’s, and there was a conflict of interest with the industry giants that monopolized the resources of the film and television circle at that time. Later, if they didn't agree, they led the team away.
This was a big news that shocked the entire Chinese film and television circle at that time.
earlyXia Yu, who won an international actor, was once the company's most promising new-generation male star. However, in the choice of personal interests and friendship and loyalty, Xia Yu, who is very righteous, chose the latter and publicly expressed her team: [Most of the company’s artists are signed with Sister Wang, and she has a lot of status in everyone’s minds. And prestige, what she said is very important, we are all willing to follow her. ]
However, the new company they are affiliated with, the boss is engaged in capital operation, and the competition in the film industry is not strong. In only 3 years, Ms. Wang once again led the team to leave and formally established herself. However, following her group of stars, including Xia With Yu, the momentum and resources are all worse than before, and many of them have faded out or even retreated. Instead,
is the original company, which has continued to maintain its dominant position in the industry for more than ten years. The reason is simple. At that time, the company's real biggest trump card was not these stars, but the director Feng Xiaogang, who was the best at shooting commercial films in the film and television industry at that time.
Especially from the opening of Feng's "New Year Films" series in 1998, to the time when the box office record of "Tangshan Earthquake" was doubled and broken by "Taiyu", and "1942" encountered Waterloo at the box office again, Feng Xiaogang's domestic commercial film Hegemony lasted for about 15 years.
has won a total of 6 annual championships ("Not See or Break", "Big Name", "Mobile Phone", "Assembly Number", "Tangshan Earthquake" and "Tangshan Earthquake"), and 3 annual runner-ups ("Party A and Party B" "Endless "Night Banquet"), 4 times the third place ("A Sigh", "A World Without Thieves", "If You Are the One 2", "Private Order"), 1 time the annual fourth place ("1942").
Therefore, Feng Xiaogang's existence is the company's greatest confidence to monopolize the domestic film circle for many years and not fear the challenges of various emerging forces. No matter how celebrities are poached, or go solo by themselves, as long as Feng Xiaogang is there, they will continue to shoot new hot commercial films and make newcomers a celebrity.
Therefore, Xia Yu’s peers, from Huang Xiaoming to Deng Chao, came from behind one by one and became popular stars in the Mesozoic era. The three-crowned actor of the Venetian Film Festival, the Golden Horse Award and the Golden Rooster Award, except for the 2015 "Looking for the Dragon" "Big Golden Tooth", a male actor, has not acted in a good movie for more than ten years.
In addition, Xia Yu's "Looking for the Dragon Jue" was ranked behind the popular actress Angelababy, and he was nominated for the Hundred Flowers Award. Together with Zhang Yi and Duan Yihong, two acting actors, they lost to legitimate popular traffic. Star Li Yifeng...
with the same ip "Antique Bureau Intermediate Game", the newly popular Lei Jiayin, the male lead of the movie version, partner Ge Youge, the male number two is the just-popular "current boyfriend" Li Xian. Xia Yu could only play the web drama version with a protracted plot.
Speaking of "Antique Bureau Middle Game" and another novel of the same author, "Chang'an Twelve Hours", if "Zhang Xiaojing" was built for Lei Jia, the appearance alone would not be convincing at all. Xia Yu is also the best candidate for the character of
, such as "making a wish", and is much more suitable than Lei's head.
Unfortunately, because of the serious water-filled version of the online drama "Antique Bureau Intermediate Game", it did not reap the desired benefits, and its reputation is far less than Lei Jiayin's online drama "Changan Twelve Hours" (Douban 6.8 points: Douban 8.4 points).
At the same time, Lei Jiayin has another 30 million cost of "Overtime Cohabitation" in 2018, which has won a good box office record of 900 million with Xiaoboda. Therefore, it is obvious that investors and producers still trust him more.
is more than that. Xia Yu’s wife Yuan Quan has been with him for 20 years since he was a student. In fact, he won the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Award three times before he was 25 and nominated three times as a talented actress.
Twenty years ago, Zhang Ziyi with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Zhao Wei with "Returning the Pearl and Gege", Zhou Xun with "Daming Palace Ci", and Xu Jinglei with "Carrying Love to the End", became popular successively and became the recognized "Four Little After Hua Dan.
may finally catch up with them at that time. It was Yuan Quan and Tao Hong, Li Bingbing, Jiang Qinqin, Fan Bingbing and other actresses of the same age. When they were young and beautiful, they had taken such a group of "killing Matt photos", although
used today's Judging from the eyes, the makeup is very weird. It must be one of the photos that these actresses want to destroy the most (laughs), but it also represents their reputation in the film and television circles at that time.
At that time, Yuan Quan's achievements among these people were second only to those who are already the double shadow of Jinjihua, so Tao Hong who sits firmly in the C position is higher than the others.
She and Fan BingBing co-acted in a TV series "Little Fish and Hua Wuquan", which is the original work of Gu Long. One of them played Su Ying and the other played Tie Xinlan. They are both the heroines of the original, and they are equally matched.
Later, Tao Hong married Xu Zheng, Jiang Qinqin married Chen Jianbin, both for their families and supporting her husband’s career, and greatly reduced the number of films, and since then faded out of the film and television circles, occasionally came out in a few cameos.
Yuan Quan has also stayed away from the hustle and bustle of the film and television circle. He spends his time on rehearsing his own dramas all the year round. Compared with the many well-socialized counterparts of the same age, Dahua Dan and Da Tsing Yi, the network resources are almost equal to nothing, and there are very few film and television dramas that have really starred in them. .
Commercial blockbuster heroines like "Heart Flower" and "Captain of China" are really found in her head because of her personal temperament and acting skills that fit the role too well.
On the contrary, at that time, Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing, who were also signed by the same agent, Ms. Wang, chose to stay with the company after the departure incident. A few years later, they became a big flower. "Four Danshuangbing" said.
And the success of others in the entertainment industry is to Yuan Quan, who has chosen a drama circle without fame and fortune troubles, unless the film and television drama he starred in is released, otherwise the exposure rate is almost zero, and to Yuan Quan, who is passionate about skateboarding and magic. As far as rain is concerned, it is "like a person who drinks water, knows his own temperature".
With the huge expansion of the market, major companies have come across borders, or suddenly emerged, and the monopoly of the film industry has also been broken. Xia Yu and Yuan Quan finally have more opportunities. In the epic production of
"The Conferred God" trilogy, Xia Yu is not only one of the leading actors, but Yuan Quan will also play the important role of "Queen Jiang". Also guest starred was Chen Kun, who played the role of "Yuanshi Tianzun". In the leading documentary of the film, even Wu Jing, who has successfully cooperated with Beijing Culture for many times, also appeared. It must be more than just a martial arts instructor.
also expects that this Chinese heavy industry film, which has been so large in investment and many people are hesitant to succeed, can succeed as desired with the joint efforts of so many good actors.
