The ten-year box office list of Chinese films was quickly reprinted, and some people who were unhappy and jealous of Wang Xu's rapid rise were speechless, and they were powerless to complain in the face of such a demonic character, and they ruled the box office list of Chinese films alone, and of course the king of comedy could be the king. ββ Top Novel,
In fact, the entertainment industry has gradually accepted the fact that Wang Xu is the king of comedy, but his debut time is too short and he is young, which makes people inevitably have a prejudice.
As if to add convincing power to the list of Phoenix.com, on the morning of the same day, some people counted 35 celebrities speaking together on Weibo to support "Journey to the West", and they all called Wang Xu the king of comedy.
"I highly recommend everyone to watch "Journey to the West: Moonlight Treasure Box", the golden sign of the king of comedy is enough for a reason, right?" ββHe Jiong was the first to speak out on Weibo to support his good friend, and reprinted the ten-year box office list of Chinese films.
Almost at the same time, Xiao Shen Yang also reprinted the list and said: "I just found out that my friend you are already so great, I poured you wine last time, you are too ignorant, and now I am sincerely afraid when I think about it, but the next time I meet, I still want to toast you and the king of comedy in my heart." β
Wang girl Liu Shishi posted a limerick poem on Weibo, which was affirmed and recognized by Zhao Rongrong and many Wang fans.
You are forever shining around people's hearts,
You will always be a dazzling star,
You're always flying deep in people's souls.
You are the eternal symbol of comedy films,
Your unique performance techniques and methods,
Created a new term for nonsensical films.
The king of comedy is your forever fixed position,
Your classic lines and your hilarious poses.
It will be passed down through the ages in China.
This limerick poem also made friends in the circle who like Wang Xu and like the movie "Journey to the West" can't help but post Weibo or speak out in support of reporters in interviews.
Director Huang Jing, who has collaborated with Wang Xu in the "Macau Vice" series, told reporters at an event in the afternoon: "I was fortunate to be invited to watch the complete sample of "Journey to the West", and I am here to say that "Journey to the West" is the best comedy movie in the past 20 years, and there is no one of them, just with this film. I think he's the king of comedy. β
Huang Jing's words caused an uproar among reporters, and also caused an uproar among the viewers who watched the news.
Director Huang Da was so righteous, Wang Xu was embarrassed, so he had to post a Weibo and said: "Director Huang, I'm not as good as you say, I still want to continue to ask you for advice, it's very pleasant to work with you, I have learned a lot from you, and I have benefited a lot for life." β
Wang Xu is not deliberately modest, and Huang Jing's professional attitude towards movies has really benefited him.
During the filming of "Macau Vice", Wang Xu was deeply impressed by Huang Jing's words: "There is no inspiration. Professional people don't talk about inspiration, inspiration is just an excuse to be lazy. The profession is that your dad dies in the morning, and you have to write comedy in the evening. I did, one of my wife's godfathers, and I went to the funeral in the morning and came back in the evening to write comedy. β
The support of the great director Huang Jing and many friends in the circle has brought Wang Xu great honors. However, the voices of criticism and questioning were silent for a while, and then they erupted in the afternoon. The ferocity of some critical voices is also remarkable.
Among them is the interpreter of the classic image "Monkey King", Liu Xiaolingtong, who rarely criticizes "Journey to the West". Liu Xiaolingtong said that he had not watched Wang Xu's "Journey to the West", but he knew the general story of "Journey to the West". At the beginning, he was reluctant to respond directly to Wang Xu's adaptation in the face of reporters' questions, only emphasizing that the creation of works related to Journey to the West should respect the spirit of the original work and promote the positive themes in the Journey to the West story, rather than spoofing. Under the repeated questioning of reporters, the six-year-old child confided his heart.
"I don't dare to comment on the Monkey King played by others, but the classic things must be respected. I can't accept that Sun Wukong and the girl are in love, and Zhu Bajie will give birth to a child. β
In the eyes of Liu Xiaolingtong, the words Monkey King and "Journey to the West" are very sacred.
In response to the various film and television versions of "Journey to the West" in the TV circle in recent years, he said something serious to reporters: "The Monkey King you see now is in love with the white bone spirit, and Tang Seng and his daughter King have some not-so-good plots and stories. Especially in such a state where the situation of mainland TV dramas in China has not yet been fully classified, I don't think it's very good when our children watch it! There are very few world-class masterpieces in China, and I have always said that they should not be destroyed in the hands of our generation. The adaptation is not a random fabrication, and the joke is not nonsense! β
"Adaptation is not random fabrication, and drama is not nonsense." This sentence was immediately picked out by the reporter and posted on the Internet. As far as the huge number of lovers that Liuxiaolingtong has in China, this remark naturally caused an uproar.
Huge honors and huge criticisms poured towards Wang Xu almost at the same time, and this situation of ice and fire made Wang Xu's mind calm down.
At this moment, the time is five o'clock in the afternoon, and Wang Xu is in a hotel in Shanghai.
He posted the last Weibo of the day and intercepted a lyric from "The Sea and the Sky".
The one who knows me best
Thank you for being with me silently all the way
Let me have a good story to tell
Look at the future, step by step.
Originally, he also wrote a lyric, which he deleted, and the deleted content was:
Indifferent people
Thank you for looking down on me for once
Let me not bow my head and live more brilliantly.
It's not that he thinks that the words of the indifferent person are inappropriate, but that he really doesn't have the kind of cultivation that he has at his current age, 'Thank you for looking down on me'.
He was grateful for the praise, and he remained silent for the criticism, which was the greatest restraint he could do at his age.
He also has a psychological expectation of criticism, and Liu Xiaolingtong will not be the last to criticize the film. Wang Xu knows a little anecdote, when the original "Journey to the West" was filmed, Zhao Jiping had become the leading film score master in China with films such as "Red Sorghum". At the invitation of the West Film Field, Zhao Jiping came to make the soundtrack for "Journey to the West", but almost collapsed after seeing the script:
"At that time, the movie was called "Journey to the East", there was no complete script, and the logic was messy, so I decided to go to the set to take a look, and when I went, I was filming the scene where the fight in the body of the Bull Demon King was filmed, and there were internal organs and intestines hanging everywhere on the set, which was very disgusting."
After finishing the soundtrack, Zhao Jiping also found someone to ask the filmmaker not to sign himself in the subtitles because he didn't like the movie too much, which felt too embarrassing.
"Later, my son told me that this movie is now unbelievable and has become a cultural phenomenon, and I remembered that I had made such a film and been to the scene." And another famous song in the movie, "The Love of My Life", was chosen by Liu Zhenwei, "It was chosen by me according to the theme of love after filming, and I didn't know that Zhou Xingchi had broken up with Zhu Yin at that time." β
Even such master-level figures who participated in the production of the film are suspicious of the film, and there is no other place in the entire world film industry.
"Let people say it, this kind of evaluation of ice and fire is actually a good thing for a commercial movie, the more noisy it is, the box office will rise."
Wang Xu figured it out in his heart, and he was able to accept the criticism calmly.
He turned off his computer, changed into casual clothes, and left the hotel to attend the finale of the film "Chinese Partner".
This movie is directed by Chen Kexin, starring Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Tong Da.
That's right, this movie Golden Hammer Film and Television is one of the investors.
