The launch conference of "Mom Love Me Again" is over.
For the media reporters present, it was a worthwhile trip.
Because Li Yi did let some big melons out at the press conference.
Especially the last paragraph where he directly questioned names by name made the media reporters at the scene very excited.
The gossip media on Hong Kong Island also feel that the trip is worthwhile. After all, the media that Hong Kong Stars can influence is limited, and it is impossible to influence all Hong Kong Island media.
Hong Kong Island TV naturally sides with Li Yi. After all, Lin Jinrong is an artist of Hong Kong Island TV.
And what Li Yi released is also worth studying.
In fact, it is a commonplace in Mainland China to say that speaking lines is a performance and an actor’s basic skills.
Although Li Yi was talking about the problem of Hong Kong actor Wu Ting, in fact, the situation in the mainland is more serious.
Because many celebrities don't mean they can't speak Mandarin, but they don't have the concept of lines or anything like 123456, so they are really not afraid of comparing goods, but they are afraid of comparing themselves to others!
Even if you make a comparison like this, you will find that an actor like Wu Ting is actually quite wealthy.
After all, at least I have some acting skills. At least, although my Mandarin is not accurate, at least I don’t cut out pictures or use digital lines!
The digital dialogue thing was probably invented here in the Mainland.
Let’s talk about it, if we compare with the lower limit, the Mainland will surely win!
The launch press conference of "Mom Love Me Again" ended, and the news on the Internet media started immediately.
First of all, in Hong Kong Island, the media mostly reported on the people Li Yi named and scolded.
"Director Li Yi angrily criticized Hong Kong actor Wu Ting. He can't even speak his lines well. What kind of actor is he?"
"Why did Wu Ting lose to newcomer Lin Jinrong? Director Li Yi alluded to being unprofessional!"
"Young director Li Yi questioned the best actor Huang Disheng: Aren't lines the basic skills of acting?"
"Discriminate against Hong Kong actors? Li Yi: Am I discriminating against my own father?"
"Wu Ting was accused of being unprofessional and had to be replaced. Hong Kong and Taiwan newcomer Lin Jinrong worked hard to win the opportunity!"
As for the gossip media in Hong Kong, they are actually more willing to report on actors such as Wu Ting and Huang Disheng. There is no way, no matter what Li Yi is, he is also a director.
How can a director report that there is a market for negative material about actors?
How many people know Li Yi? Even those who have watched his movies may not necessarily know that the movies were made by Li Yi.
As a result, except for a few paid gossip media, they directly hated Li Yi, saying that Li Yi was attacking the best actor, veteran actors, and veteran directors like Wu Zhuobin!
At most, they would not report on Wu Ting being scolded for not being professional.
In fact, if Wu Ting is replaced by a mainland youngster, Li Yi may have to waste a lot of time, and for some people, he may not be able to explain it clearly.
But it turned out that the same Hong Kong actor was replaced, and Wu Ting was dumbfounded.
Everything they did earlier was based on the fact that Li Yi replaced him with a mainland actor. It can be said that "Mom Love Me Again" has become a cast where all the protagonists are mainland actors.
But the result was not the same. Li Yi was just replaced by Lin Jinrong, who is also a Hong Kong actor, but he still played a small role.
This makes Wu Ting directly indistinguishable.
Because, if you want to say that in order to curry favor with the mainland market and the mainland audience, Li Yi replaced him with a mainland niche, that’s fair enough.
But as soon as Lin Jinrong came out, this was nonsense.
Li Yi cast Lin Jinrong, obviously not to curry favor with mainland audiences, but purely out of movie considerations.
After all, Lin Jinrong is incredibly popular.
And he is an actor who was born and raised in Hong Kong, so why was Wu Ting replaced? His basic skills are not good and he is not dedicated to his job.
On Hong Kong Island, in fact, if Hong Kong stars didn't want to force Li Yi to cooperate and Wu Ting's incident, Li Yi, a rising star in the director world of Hong Kong Island, would actually be very popular.
After all, there are really not many young directors in Hong Kong, so from this aspect, it is too late for them to praise him, so how can they criticize him?
Of course, the forest is big and there are all kinds of birds.
For example, Huang Disheng, such as Xu Rongqiu, such as Wu Zhuobin.
But they forgot one thing, that is, Hong Kong Island is no longer the Hong Kong Island of the 1980s and 1990s.
Their words can have great or small influence. Li Yi and Lin Jinrong proved that he is not discriminating against Hong Kong actors as reported by the media, and temporarily replacing Hong Kong actors in order to please the mainland audience.
It’s entirely because Wu Ting doesn’t live up to his expectations!
And it’s not like Li Yi really has no foundation except his father.
He graduated from Beijing Film Academy!
Although the directing department of the Beijing Film Academy is not as famous as the acting department, and there are not many famous directors, it is still a famous school.
There are quite a few senior brothers and mentors.
Li Yi, a junior, can be said to have gained a lot of respect for the directing department of Beijing Film Academy with his previous film, but it was just because the previous public opinion was limited to Hong Kong Island.
In addition, the topic is somewhat sensitive, so if they try to help Li Yi, it may be counterproductive.
But it's completely different now.
Li Yi understood clearly at the press conference that it was not a matter of discriminating against Hong Kong actors, but simply that Wu Ting was unsatisfactory and unprofessional.
At this time, public opinion also spread to the mainland.
What else is there to say?
So, soon, it was discovered that a well-known director who graduated from Beijing Film Academy was Li Yi's senior brother. Tang Lu directly supported his junior brother Li Yi during an interview!
"He (Li Yi) is right. Lines are an important part of performance. It does not mean that you must be able to say this or that, but the director has requirements and the work requires it. As an actor, let alone learning
In Mandarin, you just have to learn how to meow like a cat or howl like a dog. As an actor, if you want to play this role, you have to learn it. If you can’t learn it well or act well, it means your professional level is not up to standard. You try and work hard.
If it still doesn't work, it's excusable, but if you don't do anything, you feel that it doesn't matter. Since you think it doesn't matter to learn these things, there is no need to play this role."
Fortunately, Tang Lu supported Li Yi, but he did not comment on the names of several other Hong Kong actors or directors.
But another famous director who is also Li Yi's senior brother, no, I should say a big star, Chen Wen, is not so polite.
Although Chen Wen graduated from the directing department, he ended up on the path to becoming an actor. On the contrary, his major was unsatisfactory.
But this does not prevent him from supporting Li Yi as Li Yi's senior brother. Moreover, Chen Wen is not a small role, he is a real big shot in business, literature and art.
A true international best actor, and he has won more than one. A Hong Kong Film Award winner like Huang Disheng is not at the same level as Chen Wen.
