"The one who locks himself in the script."

A WEEK LATER, NEWSWEEK FEATURED A PHOTO OF LI LIN ON ITS COVER, THE FIRST TIME HE APPEARED ON THE COVER OF ONE OF THE THREE MAJOR AMERICAN MAGAZINES.

In fact, as early as last year, when Li Lin's piano music was released, Time Magazine, one of the three major magazines in the United States, wanted to interview Li Lin.

However, the interview was with the Asian edition of Time Magazine, and Li Lin was busy recording his album at the time, so he missed the interview with the Asian edition of Time Magazine.

NOW, WITH "THE KING'S MAN", HE HAS FINALLY HAD A CHANCE TO APPEAR ON THE COVER OF NEWSWEEK MAGAZINE IN THE UNITED STATES, AND IT IS THE AMERICAN VERSION, NOT THE ASIAN VERSION.

You must know that the American edition and the Asian edition are two levels of newspapers, and magazines of this level like the three major American magazines generally have sub-editions all over the world, and the American edition is the core and the brand of this magazine.

The Asian edition of Time Magazine is actually not much different from the local magazine, but the American edition is different, which really means that the star has attracted the attention of the American public.

"He is a person who locks himself in the script, and before filming, he was criticized by many people, and in the process of filming, he suffered a lot of criticism."

"But none of this has deterred him, and he has attracted thousands of people in South Korea with his acting skills, breaking a series of box office records in South Korea, and becoming the frontrunner in Korean androgynous style." Creator of 'Boys Over Flowers'. ”

"In the Korean film industry, he is the hottest actor; In the Asian music scene, he is also the ruler of album sales exceeding 10 million. His piano music albums have been bestsellers all over the world. ”

"He was also a great businessman, and in just two years he had amassed hundreds of millions of dollars in assets, which is the face of the American dream."

"No, we should call it Huaxia Dream."

"I believe that it won't be long before the American people see him on the American stage. Bless him here. ”

UNLIKE TIME MAGAZINE, WHICH IS NOT AS CONSERVATIVE AS TIME MAGAZINE, NOR AS LIBERAL AS U.S. NEWS AND WORLD REPORT, NEWSWEEK STRICTLY ADHERES TO A POLICY OF JOURNALIST NEUTRALITY. Trying to inform the United States about the news on the other side of the globe.

And the NEWSWEEK report quickly affected China.

"Art."

"News Gossip" magazine wrote: "This is an art film, the popular star Li Lin starred in "The King's Man" in South Korea, and was once bombarded by the media, but when "The King's Man" broke the Korean film record one after another. When he became a frontrunner in Korean films. But there is no media bombardment of "The King's Man", the Korean troika and the two national actors were all defeated in the hands of Li Lin, and the Korean media at this time have collectively lost their voices. ”

"The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise."

"Film Weekly", "Speaking of the trouble of gay dramas, you should go and watch this movie again, it is true that this movie has a feminine tendency in makeup. But this style has set off a trend in South Korea, as far as the content goes. That's purely the opinion of the benevolent and the wise, if you think this is a gay drama, then I can only say that you are too dirty. ”

"Gay drama? Have you ever seen such a good-looking gay drama? Have you ever seen a gay drama in which the South Korean president personally praised the 'flower-like historical drama'? ”

"Contemporary Film Industry" reported: "Some media people are also cloudy, and they have heard that the Korean media say that gay dramas are hyped up here, and they have no serious attitude at all, and this kind of media will only mislead readers." ”

On the Internet, Li Lin's countless fans suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"It turned out that it wasn't a gay movie, so I said, Li Lin can't act in that kind of movie, it's all because of those media reports indiscriminately, and I almost became Li Lin's life."

Ruochen, a fan who quit the official website and joined in, said.

"Although "Farewell My Concubine" is good, I feel sick when I think of Li Lin going to act in that kind of play, but fortunately Li Lin is just neutral, anyway, I read the poster, it's so beautiful, I just can't understand what is written on it!"

"You still have posters, I don't have any posters here, I found a purchasing agent, but they told me that the posters are out of stock, and it will take at least half a month to ship them, so it's a pit."

"Is there anyone willing to sell Li Lin's signed poster at a high price?"

"I also begged Li Lin's signed poster, it must be signed, I already have an ordinary poster, fortunately, I asked a friend to help me bring the poster from South Korea, why isn't it released in Huaxia?"

"I heard that there is sensitive content, and "The King's Man", like "Memoirs of a Geisha", tells about other people's history, other people's politics, and there is a small amount of sensitive content, but unfortunately, I am looking forward to these two films."

"If you want to watch "Memoirs of a Geisha" and "The King's Man", you can go to entertainment paradise, these two movies have directly started to go to entertainment paradise since it was determined that they could not log in to the theaters in Huaxia, you wait, just a few days."

Two days later, "The King's Man" and "Memoirs of a Geisha" landed in entertainment paradise at the same time.

The two films began their final contest in Asia in China.

One is Spielberg's masterpiece, in which Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li, two leading figures of new and old women, participate; The other is a movie starring Li Lin, who swept the Korean film market and is super popular in Asia.

As soon as he landed in the entertainment paradise, a battle between dragons and tigers began.

"The King's Man" broke 100,000 viewers on the same day, while "Memoirs of a Geisha" exceeded 130,000 viewers, and "Memoirs of a Geisha" lost to "Memoirs of a Geisha", and in terms of revenue, "Memoirs of a Geisha" is a Hollywood blockbuster and Spielberg's masterpiece, so the fee is very high, while "Memoirs of a Geisha" is only a Korean movie with a low price, so at the box office, "Memoirs of a Geisha" crushes "The King's Man".

But it's also normal.

The market for Korean movies in China has never been very large, and if it weren't for the starring role of Li Lin, this movie would not have attracted so much attention.

What's more, "Memoirs of a Geisha" is not weak in the cast at all.

Needless to say, Gong Li is the leader of the older generation of actresses, who has worked hard in Hollywood for a long time, and her fame in the United States is infinitely close to that of a first-line actress, while Zhang Ziyi is a new actress in China.

With a face that resembles Gong Li, she won Zhang Yimou's favor, participated in "My Father and Mother", and then became famous in one fell swoop, and has since become Zhang Yimou's queen actress, starring in a series of blockbusters, with the popularity of movies such as "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides", her popularity in China is also increasing day by day, and among the four little flowers, she is the most popular.

Maybe Zhao Wei, who used to be infinitely beautiful, can match her, but with the outbreak of the military flag incident, Zhao Wei has lost the threat to her.

That's why Zhang Ziyi dared to go to Hollywood to develop, because she had reached the pinnacle of China, and continuing to stay in China would not only further expand her fame, but would make her and the light in the same dust.

Zhang Ziyi's box office appeal alone is higher than Li Lin's, after all, although Li Lin has many fans, all of them are fans in the music world, and it is not an ordinary difficulty for fans who have transferred from the music world to transform into fans, so many singers have rolled back after cross-border development.

And there's a Gong Li in it.

As the most popular movie star in the older generation, although Gong Li's popularity has declined a little because she left Huaxia to go to Hollywood, her status is still there, and her fame is still there.

Her new work is a huge hype hotspot for the media, and it also has a fatal attraction for fans.

What's more, there is a Spielberg standing in it.

Hollywood director, global director, and Spielberg, a great director with the same reputation as Cameron, has a large number of fans around the world.

With a series of word-of-mouth explosions such as "Jaws", "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "Jurassic Park", "Schindler's List" and so on, the movies that exploded at the box office have accumulated a large number of fans.

As long as he releases a new work, as long as his name appears in the director's seat, this film will inevitably attract the attention of fans around the world.

In the face of this kind of Cheng dù's director, "The King's Man", which is supported by Li Lin alone, is not an opponent at all, as for Li Junyi, what is he comparable to Spielberg?

It is understandable that such a situation has arisen.

"It's still "Memoirs of a Geisha" that is good, but "The King's Man" can't be understood."

"Director Li Junyi should be grateful to Li Lin, if it weren't for Li Lin, this "The King's Man" would not have any highlights, and who told me if "Memoirs of a Geisha" is good or not, where is the meat drama?"

"Meat play? The upstairs is really obscene, but the meat scene has been deleted, if you want to watch the meat scene, I recommend you watch the American version of "Memoirs of a Geisha", the American version of "Memoirs of a Geisha" is the full version, but you need to cross the wall. ”

"The words come out again, when will Entertainment Heaven translate those Hollywood blockbusters into Chinese? Movies with only subtitles are not good at all. ”

"Come on, I still want to watch Chinese, unless it is released in China, otherwise who will go to engage in Chinese, watch a movie in theaters, the movie ticket is 30 yuan to 50 yuan, and watch a movie here is 5 yuan to 15 yuan, the highest is not more than 20 yuan, and go to the cinema once you have to pay a movie ticket, and the entertainment paradise once purchased, permanently valid, this consumption gap you still want to have a Chinese version?" You dream! ”

"Who said that I dreamed, I spent money anyway, yes, watching movies on the computer is cheap, but the effect can be compared with the theater? Not to mention that a computer can't be compared with an atmosphere alone, and I can't say anything after I spent money, what's the reason? ”

"You're talking about here."

"It's useless."

"Okay, don't talk about it upstairs, who will take the account to me, I have no money to watch movies recently, beg for an account, I only watch the movies you have watched." (To be continued......)
