The core of comedy movies is mostly tragedy.

Comedians are also mostly introverted.

Over the past 20 years, Hong Kong has given birth to countless hilarious comedy movies, as well as countless humorous and funny comedians.

In front of the screen......

They are immersed in exaggerated or satirical predicaments, and make the audience laugh with their antics and behavior.

Behind the Screen......

The figures who racked their brains to make laughter finally became depressed in every reaction of the audience, unable to extricate themselves.

………………………………

On October 1st, the weather was sunny.

Zheng Xingzu, who is over forty, keeps trying on all kinds of suits and ties.

But every suit and tie made him very dissatisfied, as if he was obsessive-compulsive, staring at the anxious self in the mirror in a broken heart.

The figure that has brought laughter to countless people and has been away from the film industry for nearly 5 years is still not old at this time, but it is rare to see a smile on his face.

Five years ago......

He was sick.

Suddenly, overnight, I lost my desire for everything, and I rarely smiled, and I felt a little numb in the depths of my heart.

This state naturally made it difficult for him to engage in acting career again, so in a burst of lamentation and reluctance, he left the film industry.

In the first year or two, the news of his comeback can often be seen on the Internet, but as the times become more and more developed, the Internet becomes more and more convenient, and more and more new things that can provide users with interest appear, people begin to gradually forget Zheng Xingzu.

"Are you really wearing this T-shirt?"

"Let's wear this......"

“……”

He was the only one in the room.

He muttered to himself in the mirror, then laughed, and simply threw his suit and all his ties into the trash.

Eventually, I put on a very simple T-shirt and jeans and walked out of the room.

At the door, a business vehicle has been prepared for a long time.

When he saw him coming, Bi Feiyu walked out with a smile, "Teacher Zheng, let's go!" ”

"Good!"

When he saw Bi Feiyu, Zheng Xingzu showed a smile on his face, and then got into the car.

Almost a year ago......

There was a knock at his door.

Subsequently, he received the script of "Truman".

When he opened the door and saw Bi Feiyu, he was shocked!

He never dreamed that after five years away from the film industry, he had long since ceased filming, and someone would invite him to make a movie.

He instinctively wanted to refuse, although he was already outdated, his requirements for the film script have always been high.

He is from a comedy background, you can say that comedy is vulgar, you can also call it "nonsensical", you can even laugh at him, he has been nominated for the Academy Awards 5 times over the years but has not won a single award, you can even say that he has never been accepted by mainstream filmmakers, obviously the box office is very high, crushing many movies, and his acting skills are also very good, but he has never won an award......

But, you can't deny that it's really hard to make a good comedy.

Moreover, his seriousness with each movie is also rarely matched.

However, before the words of refusal were spoken, he saw Bi Feiyu's sincere face, and finally, he lowered his head and read the script.

The gears of fate, at that moment, turned completely.

"Teacher Zheng, hello ......"

"Mr. Zhang, hello, hello!"

He saw a young man with glasses and a sven man.

He hurriedly shook hands with this young man, and the figure of a forty-year-old looked helpless at this young man at this moment.

The roadshow for "Truman" has been terrible......

He followed the crew around the country, but in exchange for scolding again and again, saying that he was in the company of capital and had come to cut leeks.

He was a little embarrassed for this young man in his heart, thinking that he had made a mistake in his expression during the roadshow and messed up a lot of things.

After all......

Listening to Director Bi, the Chinese starring role in this movie seems to have been personally recommended by Mr. Zhang.

Mr. Zhang......

It seems that I have watched his movies and watched them very seriously.

"Don't be nervous, Mr. Zheng......"

Zhang Sheng looked at Zheng Xingzu, who was at a loss, and a smile appeared on his face.

motioned for Zheng Xingzu to sit down.

……………………………………

"I've always been picky about reading."

"Especially for magical data, I never read this kind of book before......"

"But, by chance, after I took a look at "Demon World", I was deeply fascinated by this book!"

"About 5 years ago, when I heard that "Demon World" was going to make a movie, I even went to Hollywood myself, hoping that I could play a role in "Demon World"......"

"Of course, I was vetoed, but after the veto, I still discussed with the director about the investment in this film......"

"Steven, I also saw a big director since I was a child, haha, I have many of his movies, this cooperation is definitely the most anticipated in my life......"

“……”

【Wanda Cinemas】

The premiere of "Demon World" next door is in full swing.

Nearly half of the Chinese artists have rushed over there.

Ma Yunhua also took his [Jiahu Pictures] to attend the premiere of "Demon World" in person.

At the premiere, looking at the countless stars and audiences below, he smiled and followed Steven, the assistant director of "Demon World", to chat about the original book of this movie and some magical movies in the past, which caused a burst of laughter below.

The opening warm-up for the premiere was a success.

As the lights gradually went out, Ma Yunhua sat on the main seat under the gaze of the media, quietly watching this epic movie, and slowly kicked off.

The film opens with a war......

Humans, elves, goblins, dragons......

Fighting, roaring, roaring, towering mountains, snow and ice full of boundlessness and cold winds......

The epic sense and the thick western fantasy made Ma Yunhua couldn't help but feel the blood boiling after a long absence.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart......

This is an epic blockbuster in the true sense of the word!

Not far away, a group of directors from the Huaxia Directors Association sat on chairs, and almost everyone came except for Vice President Kou Huai!

They stared at the opening of the film with burning eyes, felt the cells and souls stimulated by the tragic music, and involuntarily remembered the "Truman" in their hearts.

There is sarcasm, there is ridicule, as if "Truman" is like a clown who jumps off the beam, and is fiercely nailed to the pillar of shame.

Several directors invariably looked in the direction of "Truman......

The imaginary door did not happen, but instead, I saw a few artists who supported "Demon World", with their heads down, in the dark, secretly left the screening hall and walked in the direction of the screening hall on the other side of "Truman".

It's not just them......

Even a few people in the main creative team of "Truman" turned around and left.

………………………………

The propaganda of "Truman" was a failure.

may have been the repeated encounters of the roadshow that made Bi Feiyu finally give up the premiere of "Truman......

But......

No one could have imagined that when Zhang Sheng and others got out of the car, countless media flocked to it.

Bi Feiyu and Zheng Xingzu were stunned at the same time, and then looked at the young man who walked into the screening room with a smile.

...... in the sun

That young man is so dazzling and dazzling, the audience who used to accuse them angrily, and even smashed them with eggs, when they saw this young man come out at this moment, they were extremely excited!

"Mr. Zhang!"

"Mr. Zhang, look at me, Mr. Zhang, look at me!"

"Mr. Zhang, that's Mr. Zhang!"

"Mr. Zhang, ahhhh

"Mr. Zhang, can you say a few words? Please, say a few words, or, make a speech......"

“……”

“……”

The excited voice stimulated everyone's eardrums, and after looking at the extremely excited and even crazy expressions, Bi Feiyu even felt a sense of horror from the heart.

Behind Zhang Sheng, they seem to be a foil......

When Zhang Sheng looked at these people, he was also a little stunned, but then he smiled brightly and greeted everyone one by one.

Until he walked into the cinema, the entire cinema was still enduring.

"Mr. Zhang, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Wang Jiancong, the young son of [Wanda Pictures], came over excitedly and shook hands with Zhang Sheng.

After Zhang Sheng said a simple hello, a large group of brand parties [Hula] next to him rushed over.

"Mr. Zhang, I have a project, Mr. Zhang, can you help me take a look? I want to work with you! ”

"Mr. Zhang, I've been waiting for you for nearly half a year, Mr. Zhang, I've finally waited for you!"

Mr. Zhang...... We support you to fight with Lao Ma, Mr. Zhang, don't worry about money, what we have is money! We just want you to push our brand! ”

“……”

“……”

The brands are crazier than the audience outside, and the security personnel have tried hard to block for a long time, but they still haven't blocked these Zhang Sheng, who is full of red eyes, as if he sees the God of Wealth.

Zhang Sheng always greeted these brands one by one with a smile.

At the end, when he was about to walk in the door, Zhang Sheng saw another group of people appear in the aisle not far away.

"Mr. Zhang, congratulations!"

"Mr. Zhang, congratulations!"

"Mr. Zhang, I wish you a great movie sale, Fa Fa Fa Fa Fa!"

"Mr. Zhang, I have already called on my fans on the Internet to buy tickets for "Truman"!"

"Mr. Zhang......"

“……”

In this world, sometimes it is really confusing.

Bi Feiyu and Zheng Xingzu looked at a group of celebrities and artists who gathered around......

Half a month ago, their "Truman" was met with almost all the boycotts on the Internet, which once made Bi Feiyu miserable.

But......

When Mr. Zhang appeared, these artists who had just supported "Demon World" surrounded one after another, and some even had almost flattering smiles on their faces, which was extremely flattering.

Why is this happening?

Maybe......

It was when they learned that Zhang Sheng had returned......

Perhaps, when they heard the news, Zhang Sheng integrated two of the three major cinema chains in China in one fell swoop, and was planning to clean up [Dadi Pictures], but the rest of the capital never dared to say anything......

More perhaps, they realized that in the future, the entertainment industry may usher in the era of Zhang Sheng......

……

Capital, fame, talent, power......

When all these things are concentrated on this young man, everything forms an almost explosive feedback.

Bi Feiyu also saw the organizer of "Demon World", and assistant director Steven also came over, simply shook hands with Zhang Sheng, and said congratulations.

……

Wherever Mr. Zhang goes, it seems that he will always be so much attention.

And when everyone finally walked into the screening room, they found that the entire screening room was crowded.
