1905 movie network news Recently, Jing Wong has attracted a lot of attention, and it has been searched frequently.The reason is very simple. He is going to make a new play. And he released this series of Weibo’s plot even more wonderful than the new play.

In the critical period when the film industry is about to resume work in an all-round way, the initial cast will be "out of the circle", and people have to sigh that Jing Wong is really body of work in terms of marketing.First, on May 3rd, Jing Wong’s birthday, he sent a message to Weibo announcing that he was about to "go through the customs" for filming, and announced the "Golden Supporting Actors", most of whom were mature actors with recognized strength, which was full of Hong Kong flavor. Netizens can’t help but sigh, "Looking at the supporting lineup, the starring role should not be wrong."

After a lapse of four days, on May 7th, director Jing Wong once again announced the starring lineup of the new version of "Eternal Dragon Slayer" through his social platform official, and at the same time exposed a group of actor modeling stills. Weibo finally sold a pass. "As for Xiao Zhao … I won’t tell you yet!"

A word shocked a thousand waves, and netizens immediately set off a discussion upsurge on the starring lineup. However, the discussion heat has not dropped yet. Jing Wong then deleted the information and explained the reasons for deleting the article, and at the same time rumored that "Xiao Zhao … is definitely not."Dilraba”。

Such a series of operations, several topics airborne hot search, this fan has been looking forward to 27 years of "Eternal Dragon Slayer" finally came, will it make up for so many years of childhood dreams? Or just another self-consumption? Today, we invited film critic Tan Fei to give a special comment — — Director Jing Wong’s feelings are on the shelf again. Should marketing start with casting?

"Do you think Jing Wong’s marketing is heavy?" Moderator Chen Min asked."It’s too heavy," Tan Fei sighed. "You see, at the end of 2019, he vaguely said that he would shoot a new version of" Eternal Dragon Slayer ",and after the release of first hero and No.1,LAM Raymond、Janice ManThe lineup once again made everyone stunned. "How can these people compare with the version 27 years ago?" But at this time, the film has been "out of the circle."

In fact, in the Weibo propaganda in 2019, Jing Wong also buried an important "stalk", that is, "Zhang Wuji finally went to Dadu to find Zhao Min" — — Twenty-seven years ago, Zhao Min and Zhang Wuji said, "Zhang Wuji, if you want to save the six sects, come to me." Tan Fei frankly said that he was actually very impressed by the scene at that time, and "I am still very excited after waiting for 27 years and finally getting the chance."

In Tan Fei’s view, this hot topic of Dilraba shows the superb marketing ability of director Jing Wong.

Since 2016 and 2017, many netizens have been casting roles for directors. Everyone thinks that Dilraba’s appearance fits well with the setting of Persian saint Xiao Zhao. This time, Jing Wong himself Weibo denied it, which pushed the topic even hotter. "This is called marketing, which is called hype, which is called unprofitable. This is called small Boda. He denied it and also took the word Dilraba.

Talking about this, Tan Fei boldly guessed Xiao Zhao’s candidate — — "I just mentioned a name Chingmy Yau, didn’t I? She played Xiao Zhao 27 years ago. If her daughter Shen Yue plays Xiao Zhao 27 years later, it will be more topical. "

The topic is enough, and many fans turn their attention to the content and quality of the film. On the one hand, the existing cast and modeling are quite controversial; On the other hand, how Jing Wong’s director level will be this time is also an unsolved "mystery" for everyone. "There is a saying among fans that’ the most difficult level to guess in the world is Jing Wong’s director level’ because it goes up and down, up and down," Tan Fei added.

Jing Wong’s previous works seem to prove this point. "Douban scored as high as 7.2, and the second one dropped to 5.5. Besides, these movies are actually popcorn movies." Tan Fei said, "Wang Jing has an idea, that is, if he is a art cinema, he will be the top art cinema. If he is a commercial film, he will be the first and a complete hit."

Jing Wong’s creative style is so changeable that film critic Tan Fei can’t help but sigh, "You can see his highest side, his lowest side, his meticulous side and his shoddy side". From this point of view, he can completely match the title of "film actuary" given to him by everyone. He is not limited by artistic creation, but he particularly understands his goal of making commercial films.

Take this film as an example. Tan Fei said that Jing Wong left himself a "back road", and this cast, which was criticized by many netizens, was part of the "back road" he laid for himself.

"What is my goal? The first is to make money. Let’s compare this movie. Do you think that if first hero is replaced by a top-notch mainland player like Karry or a top-notch Jackson Yee, his personal worth is estimated to be much higher than eating all the lineups together, then he may not be able to make money, but if he takes such a lineup, think about it. Even if he encounters a’ black swan’ like the current epidemic, he can sell it to the website. "

In fact, director Jing Wong has always been criticized for this. In the face of doubts, he always behaves very calmly. "He may say his feelings, how much can he sell?" Tan Fei said with a smile. For Jing Wong, the most important thing about a commercial film is not how you evaluate it, but how the market evaluates it. Tan Fei recognized this. "I think it is a director’s duty to respect capital.".

"However, we still hope to see director Jing Wong’s real talent ability besides the marketing expert, that is, besides financial quotient, there is also talent quotient", Tan Fei finally said. Everyone also.I look forward to the early publication of this new film directed by Jing Wong.
