In 1993, Chen Kaige made the movie "Farewell to the King", which was his pinnacle, with a Douban score of 9.6 and won 13 international awards including the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival and the Golden Globe Award in the United States.
Chen Kaige has since become a wrist.

This film focuses on the lifelong entanglement of duan Xiaolou (Zhang Fengyi) and Cheng Dieyi (Zhang Guorong), and their tragic fate, which is a metaphor for the ultimate fate of art:
Extinction, or dissipation.
Cheng Dieyi is a character depicted in the play, this little bean with the same origin as Wei Xiaobao, who was dressed as a girl by his mother since childhood, but he stubbornly believes that he is a man.
In order to become an apprentice to the drama, his mother cut off one of his extra fingers.
This finger is a metaphor for the lack of independent spirit.

Xiao Douzi was arranged by the master to play the role of Danjiao.
He sang the singing passage "Si Fan" in the "Book of evil seas":
"I was originally a female petite, not a boy..."
However, he always sang wrong.
The master brother took the master's pipe and shoved it into his mouth, and smashed out a mouthful full of blood.
This bright red blood is a metaphor for the blood of chu women.
The pipe, pounded into his mouth, was a metaphor for strong JIAN.
Under the brutal abuse, Xiao Douzi sang the drama correctly, but his gender cognition began to be confused.

Staying with Duan Xiaolou's appearance has become his spiritual sustenance (quasi-love?). )。 Duan Xiaolou is a normal man, terrified of his entanglement, and eventually chooses to marry the prostitute Ju Xian (Gong Li).
Cheng Dieyi was angry at Duan Xiaolou's "betrayal". He regards Ju Xian as his mother who has disappeared, rather than the wife of his "lover" Duan Xiaolou.
He and Duan Xiaolou had agreed to sing "Farewell to the Overlord" together for a lifetime, which he vaguely believed was Duan Xiaolou's promise of "love" between them.
When this illusion of "love" was shattered, Cheng Dieyi chose revenge. He self-harmed until he committed suicide, and he used one death to complete the redemption of his "love".

Chen Kaige showed his deep thinking about the nature of life in "Farewell to the Overlord", and he deserves all the honors he has won.

In 2005, Chen Kaige filmed the movie "Wuji".

The storyline of the film is not very complicated, a little girl named Allure, who has been favored by God, makes her the most beautiful princess in the world, with unparalleled wealth and power.
The price is that she will never be able to have love.
Qingcheng is a girl who has long looked forward to Shu, and in order to fight for the slim right to love, she decides to go to the same fate as Pan Jinlian.
After the film was broadcast, it grossed 180 million yuan at the box office and had a Douban rating of 5.4, which is considered to be the worst film made by Chen Kaige.

At that time, the ticket price of "Wuji" was fifty yuan. At that time, it was a lot of money.
Although many people have seen this movie, there are not many people who will help Chen Kaige brag.
Because everyone can't understand it.
The plot has no logic, the characters have no highlights, an old story of jealousy.
A video began to circulate on the Internet, "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun", which was a hit. More people have watched this video than people who have watched "Wuji".
This video caused an uproar.
Chen Kaige, with an unknown grassroots bar.
Who is he?
Hugo's spoof life (below)
Three
Hu Ge was born in 1974 in Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province.
His father was a popular student in the Wuhan Peking Opera Troupe, and his mother was a pipa player in an orchestra in Wuhan.
Since childhood, Hu Ge has traveled around with the troupe.
In 1985, Hu Ge and his parents came to Wuhan to settle down.
He studied piano, drum kits, Chinese painting, and break dance. He will do anything, he will not be proficient in any of them. He had only three minutes of enthusiasm for learning.
In 1993, Hu Ge was admitted to the Hankou branch of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, where he organized a band and became the band leader.
In 1997, Hu Ge graduated from university and went to Hubei Traffic Music Radio as a music DJ.
He's a wayward guy who only plays his favorite tracks.
In the program, he also took bootlegs and sang the single "Annoying" by himself, which was broadcast on the program.
Many listeners complained that Hugo played the song indiscriminately.
Hugo had to leave the radio.
There is no grandfather here, there is a place to keep the grandfather. After leaving the radio station, he worked as a host and hosted talk shows. He has also done music production, audio processing, arranging and composing music.
He also won the first place in the National Innovation Cup Computer Music Competition. He eventually became a freelancer.
In 1999, he had a dream and went to Beijing.

In Beijing, Hu Ge worked as a peddler of second-hand music equipment, selling music equipment to "musicians who do not know how to operate".
He lived by being abducted and deceived.
Later, he went to Shanghai, still upside down the music equipment.
He also worked as a carpenter.
In 2002, Zhang Yimou directed the commercial film Hero. The domestic box office was 250 million, which was a great success. Zhang Yimou had money, and he also had the confidence, put his arms around his little wife Chen Ting, and gave birth to three babies in one breath.
Seeing that his girlfriend Zhang Yimou was mixed up like a dog, Chen Kaige was eager to move.
He raised huge sums of money and invited Tse Ting-feng and Cecilia Cheung, who were the top at the time, to prepare to do a big vote.
In 2005, the epic masterpiece "Wuji" was steamed in the fire of publicity and steamed out of the cage.
Five
At that time, Hu Ge had just lost love. He has seen "Overlord Farewell", produced by Chen Kaige, which must be a fine product.
With this in mind, he bought a movie ticket.
After watching most of the movie, he was still confused.
What plot, what the main line, does not matter, what matters is that the hair floats in the air full of gods.
A mouth full of gods is the previous life, the next life.
Karma that set.
Hu Ge was distressed by his 50 yuan and tore the movie ticket to pieces.
Back at the rental house, he still couldn't restrain his anger. He shut himself up, wrote the script, made a video, directed the screenplay and dubbed it himself, and produced the video "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun".

Hu Ge used the tone of the announcer of China Rule of Law Report to spoof and adapt "Wuji".
Humorous and playful.
Hu Ge arranged the location of the story in the Circle Circle Entertainment City, and the manager of the entertainment city, Wang Mou, was mysteriously killed.

In order to find out the truth, the police officer went deep into the tiger's den and went to the Ring Casino to investigate the truth, but he could not find the real culprit.

Fall of the City and full of gods
The video continues to play, and it turns out that the real culprit is a steamed bun. When Xie Wuhuan was seven years old, he snatched a steamed bun from a little girl named Qingcheng.
He asked the little girl to promise to be his slave before he would return the bun to her.
Unexpectedly, the little girl would be deceitful.

Xiao Qingcheng used deception to overthrow Xie Wuhuan and regain the steamed bun that should have belonged to him.
Her deception made Xie Wuhuan completely change his world outlook and outlook on life, from a sunny boy to a vicious and vicious pervert.

Xie Wuhuan kills manager Wang of the entertainment city, and then marries Kunlun Nu, the lover of The City, in order to take revenge on the City...

After the video was made, Hu Ge sent it to the forum he created for netizens to download.
In early 2006, someone uploaded "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun" to video sites such as Six Rooms. The video got exploded.
This style of ghost animals was unheard of before.
No one knows how many people have watched this video.
For the movie "Wuji", Chen Kaige has great hopes. He even counted on the work to hit the Oscars.
Hu Ge did his best to ridicule him.
After he learned of "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun", he said angrily:
"Man cannot be shameless to such an extent."

Chen Kaige was ready to take Hu Ge to court for tortious crimes.
He regarded his film "Wuji" as his child of the full moon.

Chen Kaige remarks
Hu Ge naturally knew that he could not fight director Chen Da, and he apologized.
In the days to come, he actively maintained Chen Kaige's image.

After that, Hugo sought an out-of-court settlement.

Chen Kaige announced that he would fight a lawsuit with Hu Ge. Introduced by a friend, Hu Ge hired a lawyer. The lawyer learned that Chen Kaige hoped that Hu Ge would admit the infringement and the two sides would settle.
After being spoofed by Hu Ge, Chen Kaige has been a man with his tail between his legs and has not participated in the award ceremony of that year's Academy Awards.
"Wuji" was rated as a bad film by Hong Kong film critics.
Chen Kaige's "Wuji 2" was stillborn.
The lawsuit was ultimately settled. Chen Kaige gave up suing Hu Ge.

In 2015, Chen Kaige filmed the movie "Taoist Descending the Mountain", which tells the story of a Taoist monk who went down the mountain because of a famine, fought with Japanese ninjas, and fought with various hooligans and spies, and finally understood a truth in a strange world:
"Unscrupulous means are really heroic, and they are really heroes who do not change their original intentions."

In 2017, Chen Kaige filmed the movie "The Legend of the Demon Cat". A talking cat became a tour guide and led the audience to appreciate the scenery of the Tang Dynasty.
The same fantasy theme, this time, no one dares to spoof. Chen Kaige took Hu Ge as an example and taught the audience how to behave.

In 2005, video creation was not so popular. Hu Ge's "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun", which appeared on the Internet, is a big event that breaks the earth.
It turns out that art can not be sublime.
It turns out that art can be recreated.
After that, the Internet set off a ghost animal frenzy.
Hugo and his bloody buns (below)
Steamed buns fly all over the place
After this storm, Hu Ge was not idle.
He has successively created short video works such as "Bird Cage Mountain Bandit" and "007 Vs Men in Black", but he has not set off much waves.
His short video "Brother just wants to hang", telling the story of a man who wants to commit suicide after falling out of love, walking in a humorous and funny style, worth watching.
He became famous and made a living by shooting commercials.

There is a famous Internet adage:
"Everyone can be famous in 15 minutes and famous in 15 minutes. On the Internet, everything is possible. ”
Hugo became famous for more than 15 minutes.
He seems to be quite grassroots.
His appearance is a competition for the right to speak in art by the Internet. In the past, art and the judgment of art were mostly in the ivory tower, and a small group of people said that what was art, we could only obediently listen.
Now anyone can speak.
The Internet is a weapon to break the hegemony.
Recently, I heard that Chen Kaige's son Chen Feiyu gave up his nationality in the United States and returned to the development of Chinese showbiz.
It turns out that art can be hereditary...
Suddenly I remembered the flattering voices on the Black Wood Cliff, in the sun and moon god sect's main altar, surrounding the undefeated side of the East:
"The Sect Leader has been united for thousands of generations!"
