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 the question by name, which 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 Star can influence is limited, and it is impossible to influence all Hong Kong Island media.
Hong Kong Island TV is naturally on Li Yi's side. 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 performance and the basic skills of an actor.
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 comparisons with others, but rather with comparisons with 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.
There is one thing to say, if we compare to the lower limit, the Mainland will definitely win!
The press conference for "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 lack of professionalism!"
"Young director Li Yi questioned the best actor Huang Disheng: Aren't lines the basic skill of acting?"
"Discriminating 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 there be a market for negative information about actors when reporting on directors?
How many people know Li Yi? Even those who have watched his movies may not know that the movies were shot 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 being unprofessional.
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 it turned out not to be the case. Li Yi was just replaced by Lin Jinrong. He is also a Hong Kong actor, but he still has a small role.
This makes Wu Ting directly indistinguishable.
Because, if you want to say that Li Yi replaced him with a mainland niche actor in order to curry favor with the mainland market and audiences, that would make sense.
But as soon as Lin Jinrong came out, these words were 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, if it weren't for the fact that Hong Kong stars wanted to force Li Yi to cooperate and the Wu Ting incident, Li Yi, a rising star in the director world on Hong Kong Island, would actually be very popular.
After all, there are really not many directors of the younger generation 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.
Such as Huang Disheng, such as Xu Rongqiu, such as Wu Zhuobin.
But they have forgotten 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 was not discriminating against Hong Kong actors as reported by the media, or 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 still many senior brothers, mentors and the like.
Li Yi, a junior, could 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 speak for Li Yi, it may be counterproductive.
But now it's completely different.
Li Yi understood clearly at the launch conference that it was not a matter of discriminating against Hong Kong actors, but simply that Wu Ting was unsatisfied and unprofessional.
At this time, public opinion also spread to the mainland.
What else is there to say?
So, soon, the graduate of Beijing Film Academy was considered to be Li Yi's senior brother, a well-known director, and Tang Lu directly supported his junior brother Li Yi during the 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 word, 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 Chen Wen, another famous director who is Li Yi's senior brother, no, should be said to be a big star, was 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 character, he is a real big shot in business and art.
A true international best actor, and he has won more than one. A Hong Kong Golden Statue Best Actor like Huang Disheng is not at the same level as Chen Wen.
