Bai Yuhan came to Hong Kong this time, mainly to participate in an online talk show "Phoenix Very Dao" under the Chinese channel of Phoenix Satellite TV. This is an online talk show that is produced according to the specifications of the TV station and interacts with netizens at the same time. The host He Dong is the entertainer, host, writer and critic who scolded the garbage of "Hero" at the beginning.

This show is very interesting, it is a three-dimensional show. A week before the interview, a promotional preview page was created in the special column of Phoenix.com, soliciting opinions from netizens and recommending suitable guests and topics. Netizens can leave a message here to contact He Dong and the program team.

Then there is the live interview, so that netizens can participate in the interaction. The next day, the program will broadcast the official version of the video simultaneously on the Chinese channel of Phoenix Satellite TV and the broadband of Phoenix Network, and the most important thing is that the official version of the video will not be cut, how to talk at that time, how to broadcast tomorrow.

After the live broadcast, some video clips will be put on several video sharing websites.

In this issue, "Extraordinary Dao" wants to talk about the development of online video, and after netizens left messages, the guest was selected as Bai Yuhan, and the popularity of "Never Expected" was discussed.

Time: August 3rd, morning, a live broadcast room of Phoenix Satellite TV.

Under the leadership of the staff, Bai Yuhan met the host He Dong. He Dong spoke very directly, and he didn't seem to be a very good person to get along with, but this had nothing to do with Bai Yuhan. When I received the interview invitation for this show, it was still a surprise to read a "novel" YBDU. For other celebrities, the last time "Extraordinary Dao" was very conducive to fame.

But for Bai Yuhan, he is not keen on being on the show. Even if the grade of "Extraordinary Dao" is quite high, and the average little star can't go up, he is not enthusiastic. Because it all depends on acting skills. Nonsense.

The main reason why he agreed to the interview invitation was that Bai Yuhan wanted to come to Hong Kong to have fun, and then meet his idol Stephen Chow.

Through the broker's matchmaking, Bai Yuhan has already made an appointment with Stephen Chow to meet for dinner and chat. Stephen Chow is not as unkind as the legend, and he readily agreed to the request of Bai Yuhan, a well-known fan. Moreover, what made Bai Yuhan very excited was. Stephen Chow actually knew him.

I have also seen his works "All in All" and "Never Expected".

In short, this trip to Hong Kong, seeing Stephen Chow is the main thing. Playing is secondary, getting on the show is the least important. Therefore, during the recording of the program, he was very open. No stage fright. With the host He Dong, you come and go, and you are very happy.

"After "Wan Wan" became popular, in addition to being praised, there were also some criticisms, you know?" He Dong asked.

Bai Yuhan leaned on the back of the sofa: "It's not very clear, how to say it." ”

"They think it's a shoddy drama, in other words, it's a little more professional to cheat money."

"All I can say is. They don't understand the internet yet. The core competitiveness of online self-made dramas is not a high-level production. The audience won't care if you have god-like acting skills, or sleepwalking-like acting, or whether you are a beautiful aerial shot or a prevarication of inferior special effects. What they care about is content, and the core competitiveness of content is screenwriting, and our company has 20 professional screenwriters, as well as seven or eight contracted directors, including the production staff behind the scenes, who will participate in the discussion of scripts. Those who know the industry know that the filming of "Wan Wan" is so simple that it is mentally retarded, and even many scenes are filmed directly in the company's office, and the actors are all their own people in the company, and the cost can almost be said to be low. But there are a lot of people who like our works, they don't care that we are poor crews, what they want is fun, blockbusters are not fun or good-looking, and they still hit the streets. ”

"From a stylistic point of view, "Wan Wan" and "BREF (all in all)" are in the same vein, from the heavy taste of "BREF" to the more ordinary of "Wan Wan", have you given up some sharpness? Stripped of some insistence for the market? ”

"No, I make a film, I rarely think about whether it can satirize anyone, educate anyone, I just hope to entertain anyone, in addition to entertainment, more feelings, that would be better. "BREF" is a bit more important because at that time we didn't find out where the audience's laughter was, catering to some people, and at the same time you lost a lot of people. "Wan Wan" is more in line with commercial promotion, and the target group is larger. You see that Hollywood is like this, what can be eaten globally is basically a simple main line, and the decent villains are very clear. It may be that it is difficult to stand out, but it takes into account most of the commerciality and adapts to a larger group of people. ”

"In your life, are you a white swordsman or a king sledgehammer?"

"Haha, no, I'm more successful than them now."

"You are more successful than them, but you still grasp the spirit of the little people, and you are still in place."

"Because that's how I've come before. A few years ago, a large number of people advocated that the post-80s generation is the Beat Generation, and this generation is over, and it will not be able to hold up tomorrow. Because our generation, the era in which we grew up, is the era of the fastest change in the pace of society, and you will find that you are not ready, and you are suddenly thrown into society. ”

Bai Yuhan said quickly: "You think that you wake up with ten girls with you, in fact, you only buy one pancake fruit to eat every morning, and sometimes you are reluctant to add an egg." Life won't go your way, everything won't go your way. Many people will be pessimistic and think that they have been deceived by life. In fact, life does not deceive you, provided that you cannot live in your imagination. "Wan Wan", or several other short dramas, we are all talking about this, we laugh at our previous childish ideas, we have been naïve, humble, have been hit, and feel hopeless. When you see through your own naivety, you will understand something, struggle, hard work, and hard work to shoulder the responsibilities that this generation should bear, this is the grassroots spirit, the spirit of the little people, gathered together, that is the voice of the whole era. ”

In the end, Bai Yuhan summed it up: "Why is "Wan Wan" so rough, the Wang Da Hammer described is so grassroots, but there are so many people who like it. Because we're talking about a little man Wang Da Hammer, he's not very handsome. But it's cute, he has grievances, he has sorrows. has a desire and a very declining life, he is a portrayal of young people, looking at Wang Dazhui is like looking at his young self. Wang Sledgehammer He is a symbol, a symbol exclusive to this era. ”

……

The recording of "Extraordinary Dao" was recorded from 8 o'clock in the morning to 11 o'clock non-stop. Three hours. Bai Yuhan talked a lot about his own business and thoughts on online videos, and answered some questions from netizens. Speaking of which. Bai Yuhan also has a group of fans in Hong Kong, and many people have watched "Never Expected" and think it's fun.

After the interview, Bai Yuhan immediately set off. Rushed to Pinji International.

Pinji International is Stephen Chow's company. Engaged in TV dramas, advertising, planning and other businesses, last year's plan to go public failed, and this year is ready to invest in Stephen Chow's latest personal science fiction film "Yangtze River No. 7".

At the end of August, Stephen Chow was going to Boning to shoot a movie.

In Pinji International, Bai Yuhan saw Stephen Chow, who was not much different from the image on TV, with half-length hair. Some are gray and white, and they wear a pair of black-rimmed glasses. It's just temperamental. The difference is much bigger, and the whole person is a little too quiet. Because it was already noon, after saying hello, Stephen Chow asked the assistant to arrange a meal.

It's in a restaurant downstairs from Pin Kee International.

Speaking of which, Pinji International and Wanhe Tianyi also have business connections, because the network promotion of "Yangtze River No. 7" is also contracted to Wanhe Tianyi. Perhaps it is precisely because of this relationship that Stephen Chow knows that Bai Yuhan, a newcomer in the entertainment industry, has seen several of his works.

During the meal, there was no chat, but Stephen Chow simply asked Bai Yuhan about everything.

After eating, the two went to Stephen Chow's office and continued to chat.

"I've watched "Never Expected", it's very good, it's a good film." Stephen Chow's voice is not as funny as in the movie, and Mandarin is not very standard, considering that Bai Yuhan does not understand Cantonese, he still speaks broken Mandarin. Since falling out with the dubbing Shi Banyu, Stephen Chow's works no longer have the familiar hahahaha laughter, which has to be said to be a pity.

"I grew up watching your movies when I was a child, and many styles are also imitated by you."

"You've mimicked something new, and that's good."

Bai Yuhan took out a disc from his backpack and handed it over: "Master Xing, to be honest, I was very excited when I came to see you. In particular, I was given a transcript of all the works I directed, which were short plays of a few minutes in length, engraved on a single disc. Very early on, I thought about sending you what I had photographed. ”

Stephen Chow took the disc and smiled: "Is this my graduation work sent to me by my students in the mainland?" ”

"I'm still thinking about some short films, I've also directed TV series, and I've also co-written movie scripts with director Feng Xiaogang, and sooner or later I'll have to make my own movies. When the time comes, I will give it to Xing Ye to enjoy and taste it, and that can be regarded as a graduation work. Bai Yuhan smiled and said that Xing Ye was better than he imagined.

Before coming, he did a survey, and many people on the Internet said that Stephen Chow was mean and not easy to talk to. He was also worried that he would not be able to chat with Stephen Chow and ruin each other's impressions.

Now relieved.

Knowing Stephen Chow's temper, Bai Yuhan has no scruples about chatting. At the moment, I talked with Stephen Chow about a lot of ideas about comedy movies, opinions on Stephen Chow's movies, and cognition of comedy performance forms. Stephen Chow also did not hesitate to give advice, talking about the insights he had accumulated over many years of filming.

Unconsciously, more than two hours have passed, and Stephen Chow has to go to a meeting, so this chat ends here.

When parting, Bai Yuhan didn't forget to take a photo with Stephen Chow and asked for an autograph.

Click!

With the help of the assistant, a photo of Stephen Chow putting his arm around Bai Yuhan's shoulder, the two grinning together, Bai Yuhan also compared a photo of an old-fashioned scissor hand, which was frozen in the camera.

On this trip to Hong Kong, the most important thing was completed.

Back at the Peninsula Hotel, Bai Yuhan immediately went on the Internet and uploaded the photo to his new . Lang Blog. And a simple text description.

"Had a meal and talked for two hours. He was the same as I imagined, and not the same as I imagined. But either way, it's the king of comedy. ”

posted pictures and blogs, and Bai Yuhan closed the computer.

Start having fun in Hong Kong. (To be continued......)
