Chapter 1747 The Current Situation of Chinese
To be honest, Xing Zai has been quiet for a long time. Although he can be seen occasionally in many newspapers or at banquets and award ceremonies, he is not as popular as he was in previous years.
To be more precise, he no longer has the box office dominance and suppression power he had before. You have to know that when Xing Ye was the most popular, it was an era when he competed with the four kings.
Of course, the box office suppression power is not good. One reason is that Xing Zai has not produced any good works in recent years, and another reason is the overall environment of the film industry.
These years can be said to be the years when Chinese-language films have been hit the hardest by Hollywood blockbusters. The Demon World Trilogy, various American comic heroes, and Captain Jack Sparrow have swept the world.
Although there are some Chinese-language films that are a little popular, there are no blockbusters that can compete with them. Whenever a Hollywood movie is released, the entire discourse market adjusts the schedule to avoid it.
It is no longer the kind of unstoppable spirit that existed when Hong Kong movies were popular, with a new movie released every day and Hollywood kneeling down when it came.
So in recent years, not only Xing Zai, but also the works of Andy Lau and others have been criticized more than praised. And whether it is the music industry or the film and television industry, the representative trust superstars no longer have anyone on the top.
The most popular ones are all kinds of young actresses and young actors. Compared with Hollywood, all kinds of little queens, little kings, and all kinds of newcomers who became popular with a movie, the entire Chinese-speaking market gives people a feeling of lifelessness and lack of vitality.
Then, coupled with the animation of Benben and Korean dramas, they all seem to have made an appointment to enter the mainland entertainment market together, making the entire Chinese-speaking market feel precarious.
Even Haina feels that it is beginning to be a bit difficult. Liu Zongsheng has obviously talked to Yang Dongxu a lot more times in the past two years.
Fortunately, Haina is in a period of transformation, and the transformation speed is not slow. It is no longer so concerned about the cash cow of stars.
On the surface, foreign movies, TV series, and male and female groups are making a lot of money in China. In fact, the basic market is still in Haina's hands.
In other words, most of the money in the entire Chinese-speaking market is still in Haina's hands. Those foreign movies and Korean entertainment stars who seem to make money in China are actually disguised money-making tools.
Otherwise, it's not just Liu Zongsheng who has a headache. It's estimated that the father of the radio and television can't sleep at night. After all, a market worth hundreds of billions a year, but outsiders eat meat while they drink soup. No one can stand it.
With Haina as the mainstay, at least the market share and annual tax revenue can still be boasted. Otherwise, there is really nothing left.
"It's good to relax. Staying in the mountains will reduce a lot of troubles." Gu Zai patted Xing Zai's shoulder.
The two have never worked together on the screen, but they have a good relationship in private. The main reason is that Xing Zai is a person with a little social phobia in private. He speaks directly and doesn't beat around the bush and easily offends people.
Gu Zai is a very conservative person. Smart phones are flying everywhere in the future, but Gu Zai still uses an old phone. He is the only one among so many stars.
So the two of them have the same temper in private. After getting to know each other at a dinner party, they have more interactions in private over meals and tea than others.
"I know my problem. It's mainly because my brain can't keep up with the times. I always feel that something is missing from what I want to shoot. I am angry at myself."
Sing Tsai smiled back and said to Gu Tsai, "Don't learn from me. You wasted your life in the past few years. Don't learn from me just now when you have found the right direction."
"That's right, Gu Tsai. You have risen very fast in the past few years. Your future is limitless. You should seize the opportunity at this time. Don't be as depressed as Xing Tsai.
You don't have to worry about Xing Tsai. He will be fine if he figures out his problem. It's useless for outsiders to persuade him." Yang Dongxu said beside him.
Gu Tsai's rise in the past few years is indeed very fast. He has the posture of being able to take on the responsibility after the old generation grows old, compared with Xie Tingfeng and others who were seen before.
Before 2000, he was called the successor of the Four Heavenly Kings. Now in 2008, he is still standing in the position of successor. It's okay that he has not made any progress. He can't even be considered as standing still. He has taken a few steps back. He is incomparable to Gu Tsai who is on the rise.
"No, although I am very tired now, I am very fulfilled, especially when I make money to donate to the school, I am very happy, how can I be decadent." Gu Zai said with a smile.
People who have experienced hardships will always cherish the hard-earned happiness. Gu Zai is undoubtedly such a person.
"Then you have to work hard. The young people in Korean groups are very powerful now. Don't let them compare with you." Hua Zai said with a smile.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Yang Dongxu subconsciously. After all, Haina is the basic plate of the Chinese market. If you want to eat in this pot, if Haina doesn't nod, others will rarely pick up the chopsticks to eat meat.
"There are many people with real skills, but few can stand out, so don't slack off." Yang Dongxu smiled and didn't answer the question directly.
However, the euphemism is already very clear, that is, whether it is possible to stand out or not, the premise is that you have to have "real skills".
It must be said that compared with the assembly line artists of later generations, the Korean boy and girl groups that have emerged in recent years are really really talented, and the basic skills of singing and dancing are really good.
On the other hand, among the younger generation in China, the bad trend of focusing on looks, cutting out pictures, and acting has already started.
In the future, Chinese audiences will generally look down on their own artists, occasionally supporting them, but most of the time they will just wait and watch the fun.
It’s not that Chinese audiences are picky, but there are really few artists of this young generation who can do it.
To be honest, the fact that the house collapses due to eating melons is not really a fatal injury in the big dye vat of the entertainment industry. There are all kinds of gossips about male and female stars in Hong Kong flying around all day long, but I haven’t seen any Hong Kong artists fail.
In fact, there are also scumbags in the older generation of the entertainment industry, and there are also all kinds of cheating and house collapses, but why did such behavior not collapse in the end, while the actors and stars of the younger generation are directly eliminated as soon as something happens?
One is that these artists of the younger generation have no idea in their hearts and dare to touch anything.
The second is that you can say that the older generation of artists have bad character and don’t know how to behave, and they are romantic sea kings.
But you can’t accuse this person of not being able to act. In short, being a scumbag is a personal behavior. In the profession of acting, people’s jobs are very stable and you can’t find any fault with them.
On the other hand, those who are like riding a rocket in the future, who woke up overnight and were completely unknown yesterday, suddenly gave people the impression that this person has become famous all over the country on the Internet. Are they out of date? They don’t even know who this popular person is.
Every one of them is good at making money, acting cool, pretending to be a lady, and harvesting fans. In other aspects, they are really a bunch of scum. They can’t hold their rice bowls steadily, and they are good at doing things that have nothing to do with their rice bowls.
When his house collapses, let alone outsiders, even their own fans don’t know what "highlights" to use to save their idols.
In the end, they can only say, "Do you know how hard and strong my idol is?"
Then they are ridiculed. Are they hard and strong enough to eat without feeding and cut their hair without anesthesia?
In the end. There is no end. Basically, one will be left out when something happens, and no one can turn over. Even if one person is left out, can he bring a group of people to the same place?
