And when Lin Xiaoguang came to the stage to speak, he was asked by the reporters in the audience which film is most likely to become a competitor of "Hong Kong" in this year's National Day file, Lin Xiaoguang said bluntly: "I think it's "Charlotte's Troubles"!

As soon as the words fell, the audience was in an uproar, and people began to talk about each other.

"1 billion box office? Lin Dong really dares to say it!"

"I've heard all of "Charlotte's Troubles", how can it have a box office of 1 billion. ”

"Maybe, as far as I know, Director Lin has predicted the box office of movies for so many years, and he has never been inaccurate!"

"That's right, I also believe in Director Lin when it comes to the box office, Director Lin has never looked away!"

“……”

In fact, everyone present knows that "Hong Kong Embarrassment" is the number one hit in this year's National Day file, and "Rescue Mr. Wu" and "Nine-Story Demon Tower" are also the two most competitive seed players, as for "Charlotte's Troubles", it is just a low-budget movie that has been plagiarized, and there is not even a movie star in this movie.

When asked why he was so optimistic about "Charlotte's Troubles", Lin Xiaoguang explained seriously: "Because this movie, like "Hong Kong", was invested and produced by me. ”

As soon as the words fell, the audience burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Director Lin can pretend to be this one!"

"I'll just say, why is Director Xiaoguang so optimistic about "Charlotte's Troubles", it turns out that it is all to advertise the movies he invests in!"

"Director Lin is really worthy of being a gold medal producer, and every sentence reveals business opportunities. ”

“……”

Between "Hong Kong" and "Charlotte's Troubles", Lin Xiaoguang is obviously more optimistic about the latter.

As for the reason, in fact, there is nothing special, but Lin Xiaoguang simply thinks that "Charlotte's Troubles" should be more funny than "Hong Kong".

In Lin Xiaoguang's view, the most important thing in comedy is to be funny, if the comedy is not funny, all other feelings and the like are.

Of course, the reason why Lin Xiaoguang dared to openly promote the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" at the premiere of "Hong Kong" is also because these two movies will be released five days apart, and there is not much box office competition between the two.

Moreover, so far, no one thinks that "Charlotte's Troubles", a low-budget comedy movie, will have the slightest chance of pulling down "Hong Kong".

There is no doubt that "Hong Kong Embarrassment" is definitely an annual hit, as long as Xu Zheng doesn't make this movie too badly, he should be able to make hundreds of millions or even billions of box office in the short term, and "Charlotte Troubles" is more like a small workshop movie that no one cares about, and it is still unknown whether it can break 100 million, let alone challenge a domestic super IP like "Hong Kong Embarrassment".

Subsequently, Xu Zheng also revealed at the premiere that in "Hong Kong", in addition to Zhao Wei playing his wife, another important female role is played by Du Juan.

The actress Du Juan, Lin Xiaoguang has heard of it before, and today is the first time I have seen her, although she is not very good-looking, but she is not ugly, at least much better than other so-called "senior faces".

Talking about the filming experience, Du Juan also revealed that he and Xu Zheng also had a kiss scene, "It's just that in the movie, the kiss didn't go well." ”

"In the movie, how do you make people think of this?" Hearing the ambiguity of Du Juan's words, Xu Zheng smiled and hurriedly helped Du Juan play a round.

can be corrected several times, but Du Juan was stunned to hear it in a fog, and the conversation between the two is always not in the same frequency band, giving people a feeling that the bull's head is not the horse's mouth.

In the end, the two of them had to give up, and they had no choice but to reach a consensus, "Everyone will understand when they go and see." ”

And Lin Xiaoguang came to watch "Hong Kong Embarrassment" today, in fact, he also did a good job of psychological construction.

Although in his previous life, Lin Xiaoguang had already watched "Hong Kong Embarrassment" once, but he had slightly flipped through the popular Douban short reviews before, and most of them were occupied by four-star and five-star, so Lin Xiaoguang still had great expectations for this version of "Hong Kong Embarrassment" in this world.

Moreover, as a film investor, Lin Xiaoguang is still very curious about how Xu Zheng injected Hong Kong film feelings and youth into comedies this time.

Soon, the film opened, after a sperm and egg battle, Jacky Cheung's "Legend of the Hungry Wolf" music sounded, accompanied by a set of fast-paced editing shots, light and shadow, human flow, and a strong Hong Kong-style flavor was brought out, because the lyrics were too explicit, "The Legend of the Hungry Wolf" This song was a banned song in the mainland back then, but after 20 years, it can be regarded as an elegant yellow explosion at most, Pan Weiyuan is a very talented Hong Kong lyricist, I have to say that Xu Zheng played high when he chose this song as the opening credit, and he didn't even touch his first love hand in the movie, just listening to the lyrics, you know how hungry and thirsty he is for his old love.

The story unfolds, a Xie Dingnan (Xu Zheng) accompanied his wife (Zhao Wei) and his family to Hong Kong for a trip, but was bumped into by his brother-in-law (Bao Bell) and wanted to renew his relationship with his first love in college (Du Juan).

So, he was entangled by this second-hand young man with a dream of documentary, from Mong Kok to Central, from Milton Road to Causeway Bay, the two of them chased after me, and the turmoil continued......

Obviously, unlike Lin Xiaoguang's previous "Thai Embarrassment", Xu Zheng is playing with feelings and changes this time, and it is obvious how much laughter a comedy can bring after adding such a profound theme as mid-life crisis and youth feelings.

"Hong Kong Embarrassment" is actually about the theme of mid-life crisis, because Lin Xiaoguang's performance in "Thai Embarrassment" pays more attention to the comedy effect, and this theme has not been fermented, so this time Xu Zheng hopes to interpret the mid-life crisis more deeply and present a deeper emotional level in "Hong Kong Embarrassment".

For post-70s and 80s audiences like Lin Xiaoguang and Wang Bo, watching "Hong Kong" is not only watching the movie itself, but also listening to a Cantonese golden song and watching a classic clip editing of Hong Kong films.

"I swear that I will never have a gun pointed at my head again in my life", "There was once a sincere love in front of me", "Don't speak." Because you and I will remember this minute, maybe we are friends for a minute", classic lines of Hong Kong films appear frequently, Yuan Qiongdan, Baliang Jin and other golden supporting roles in the Hong Kong film industry are collectively appearing, Wang Jing's true colors play herself, leading a bunch of old boys to shoot each other on the street, and even the Xiangjiang Academy Awards ceremony was spoofed by Xu Zheng in the movie.

On the other hand, before watching the premiere, Xu Zheng also reminded Lin Xiaoguang that this film can't be watched as "Thai Embarrassment", "Thai Embarrassment" will bring you happiness, "Hong Kong Embarrassment" Let's talk about life, Thai embarrassment and Hong Kong embarrassment are indeed very different, there are more emotional descriptions, more concrete character transformations, and more things injected.

Youth nostalgia, Hong Kong film feelings, Hong Kong music, mid-life crisis, Xu Zheng seems to be ready to serve it in order to cater to the public's taste.

From Lin Xiaoguang's professional point of view, "Hong Kong Embarrassment" is not a successful commercial comedy movie.

However, Xu Zheng's performance in the movie is still quite good, at least it won't be annoying, and it won't make people play, but the supporting actor Bao Bell's performance in the movie can be described as a disaster.

To be honest, in reality, if Bao Bell was so underwhelmed, he would never have lived to be so old now.

Anyone who has watched the movie "Hong Kong" knows that Bao Bell's character Cai Lala will definitely be hacked to death countless times in reality.

The middle-aged man who asked Xie Ding why his hair was gone, and he was choked to death.

Ask a middle-aged man who has been infertile for many years if he has premature ejaculation and has been kicked to death by someone in the crotch.

Xu Zheng hurried to see his first love, Bao Bell took a DV to shoot everywhere, Xu Zheng ran away in a taxi, and he caught up and opened the car door and sat down.

has been chattering, asking Xu Zheng how to take the condoms that others give you, asking if you are going to meet female customers, asking if you are going to make a date, and asking if you have a lot of little secrets.

If Xu Zheng was ruthless enough, he completely stuffed the DV into his mouth, threw down the taxi, and the wheel ran over his chest and died.

When he met filming, Bao Bell picked up a prop helmet and put it on Xu Zheng's head, and was knocked to death by Xu Zheng.

As a result, the helmet could not be taken off, so he continued to knock and knocked on the corpse.

People worship their deceased father at home, but he ran in and stepped on the electric fan, and his father was wiped out. It's not dead, can't you say it, right?

Xu Zheng finally found someone to open and remove the prop helmet on his head, but when Xu Zheng was about to meet his first love, he put it on for you again. Die or not, you say die or not?

called the police and lied that Xu Zheng, who was his brother-in-law, was the murderer, and asked people to arrest Xu Zheng, which has risen to the level of lying to the police, and handed it over to the state for execution.

Compared with Bao Bell's unaware expressions and performances, Lin Xiaoguang felt more and more at this time how good Baoqiang's acting skills were.

After acting in "Xi Youji" with the happy family, Xu Zheng also said that he would never make bad movies again, from "Nightclub" to "People in Embarrassment" to "Thai Embarrassment" to "Hypnosis Master", Lin Xiaoguang saw him walking steadily step by step, and the embarrassing series made more and more audiences like him, and at the same time, many audiences had higher and higher expectations for him.

No matter what others say, it's good, anyway, in Lin Xiaoguang's own opinion, Xu Zheng's "Hong Kong Embarrassment" is a bad movie with mixed reputations.
