A poster provokes public anger, father and son are in battle, how many hole cards does Chen Kaige's new film have?
Recently, a promotional poster called the movie "Volunteers" caused a huge storm on the Internet.
This poster presents a striking picture of a clown girl dressed in strange costumes and strange makeup, dressed in a costume similar to the Japanese flag, with exaggerated makeup painted on her pale face and strange eyes.
However, the timing of the release of this poster coincided with the 918 anniversary, an important juncture in China's War of Resistance Against Japan, which caused dissatisfaction and anger among many people. Many people questioned whether the filmmaking team was deliberately provocative and deliberately challenged the emotional bottom line of the public.
The official came forward to explain that the girl in the poster was an unfortunate character in the movie, and her makeup and costume design were designed to express her tragic experience, rather than deliberately denigrating the anti-Japanese martyrs.
However, this explanation did not quell the anger of public opinion. Many people believe that such outrageous images should not be used to promote movies, regardless of the size of the characters. This kind of publicity will only cause disgust, and some people even say that they will boycott the film and not buy tickets for it.
In the face of fierce online public opinion, the filmmakers issued an apology, emphasizing that they had no intention of harming the image of the heroes, but director Chen Kaige himself chose to remain silent and did not issue any response. This intensified the heat of the event.
Many people see this behavior as a means for the director to deliberately create controversy to gain attention, which further damages his image in the eyes of the audience. The originally highly anticipated film plummeted in momentum, and its reputation and box office fate became confusing.
This incident once again proves that any attempt to challenge the bottom line of society and people's emotions cannot escape the consequences. If the director only pursues short-term exposure and controversy, without considering the truth and people's emotions, he will only suffer the consequences in the end.
However, under the pressure of public opinion, Chen Kaige's choice to remain silent and not respond seems to be a wise decision. In such cases, inaction and evasion will only make matters worse.
The poster controversy has also drawn attention to the dual nationality of film actor Chen Feiyu and his father, Director Chen.
It turned out that in 1992, Director Chen and his wife Chen Hong got married. Although they were both Chinese citizens, when Chen Hong became pregnant, they made a point of traveling to the United States in order to give birth there. The move sparked criticism that they did so out of the benefits of dual citizenship.
Chen Feiyu thus obtained American citizenship, he lived a privileged life in the United States, then returned to China and entered the entertainment industry, and quickly became popular with the influence of his father.
However, in 2017, Chen Feiyu's popularity began to decline, and director Chen's public relations team suddenly announced that Chen Feiyu "voluntarily choosed" to give up American nationality and obtain Chinese nationality in order to repackage his image. However, the move has sparked renewed public outrage, with people questioning the real motives behind it. In the same year, Chen Feiyu was also involved in the opening of a room in a hotel, which seriously affected his image.
Despite this, under the protection of director Chen, Chen Feiyu is still active in the entertainment industry.
These events revealed Chen Kaige's excessive doting on his son, and he did not hesitate to use nationality and other means to protect his son's development on the road of acting, which gradually evolved into a relationship of interest exchange.
Some netizens analyzed that this phenomenon may be related to Director Chen's own moral character. Excessive doting and cover-up led Chen Feiyu to develop a willful and indulgent personality.
In fact, before Chen Feiyu was born, director Chen was known for pursuing personal interests. In the 90s of the 20th century, director Chen emerged with a film that emphasized the spirit of personal struggle and was regarded as a cutting-edge director representing the spirit of the times.
However, insiders privately criticized Director Chen for unscrupulously using interpersonal relationships for personal gain in order to obtain resources and benefits. Therefore, the outside world believes that Director Chen overemphasizes individualism and lacks a sense of collective responsibility.
These characteristics of director Chen are also reflected in Chen Feiyu. Chen Feiyu has shown a star temperament since he was a child, but he has also developed a willful and arrogant personality.
Shockingly, on February 13, 2022, on the eve of Valentine's Day, a photo was exposed on Weibo, in which a man was too close to a female internet celebrity. The man's facial features were extremely similar to Chen Feiyu's, and even the location of the mole on his face was almost identical. The photo immediately caused an uproar online, and people thought it must be Chen Feiyu himself.
What is even more shocking is that the female Internet celebrity is married, and this photo was provided by her husband to expose her cheating. Therefore, the "Chen Feiyu scandal" quickly appeared on the hot search, and countless netizens criticized him as a "third party" and destroyed other people's families, which should be condemned.
When the storm hit, Chen Feiyu's career and reputation fell into an almost irreparable crisis. However, at this critical juncture, Chen Feiyu showed detached composure, and with his calm attitude and decisive actions, he transformed the crisis into a remarkable victory.
At that moment, Chen Feiyu faced not only a storm of love, but also a huge wave of public opinion. The brokerage company urgently announced the suspension of his work schedule, and Chen Feiyu seemed to be in a relentless whirlpool.
However, he did not choose to back down. He thought calmly for the first time, and he knew that stabilizing public opinion was the most important thing. So he quickly issued a statement firmly stating that they were both single at the time of the incident and that there was no so-called "third party".
More importantly, he did not hesitate to hire a team of lawyers to file a lawsuit against netizens and paparazzi who distributed the photos. He demanded that they delete posts, apologize publicly, and take liability for the effects of the damage.
As a result, an unexpected victory quietly came. Chen Feiyu's decisiveness and resoluteness dispelled the controversy on the Internet about the matter. Many netizens came out to support him, thinking that his relationship was normal and should not be overly blamed.
Under the pressure of public opinion, the brokerage company also realized the change in the trend of public opinion, so it rearranged Chen Feiyu's work. In just one month, this turmoil gradually subsided, and Chen Feiyu's career was not greatly damaged.
However, the story does not end there. Chen Feiyu's parents fell into inner worries, especially his mother Chen Hong, who was full of concern for her son's future, after all, Chen Feiyu was her pride and expectation.
In order to protect her son, Chen Hong resolutely decided to use the influence of the family and stood up in a rare way. She posted a lengthy post on social media in which she firmly defended her son's conduct and behavior. She accused those who deliberately smeared them, saying that she would fully support her son and never allow him to be treated unfairly in the entertainment industry.
Chen Hong's voice had a positive effect. As a highly respected actress, she has a wealth of contacts and prestige in the entertainment industry. Her solidarity has caused a subtle change in the attitude of some netizens towards Chen Feiyu. After all, the Chen family has deep roots in the entertainment industry, and this incident shows everyone that they will do everything in their power to protect their families.
For Chen Feiyu, his mother's support is an important support for him to survive the difficulties. Chen Hong did not hesitate to consume his reputation to ensure that his son could survive this storm safely. Her solidarity allowed Chen Feiyu to regain a foothold on the battlefield of public opinion.
At the same time, just as Chen Feiyu's scandal gradually dissipated in the public eye, some careful netizens began to review Chen Kaige's life experience.
Chen Kaige, a highly respected filmmaker, his emotional experience is also full of twists and turns. When he was young, he married Hong Kong actress Hong Huang, and this marriage was once enviable. However, the beautiful scene is always difficult to last, Chen Kaige's career is thriving, but his feelings are increasingly erratic. Hong Huang chose to divorce and ended the marriage.
Subsequently, he and CCTV female anchor Ni Ping walked into the marriage hall hand in hand, and the two stayed together for 8 years. Ni Ping is meticulous in his life and is the pillar of his life.
However, the tricks of fate are unpredictable. One day, he met young actress Chen Hong on the set, and in just a few months, the two resolutely entered the palace of marriage. Ni Ping could only leave CCTV silently, and the years of companionship were instantly erased.
As a high-profile filmmaker, Chen Kaige's emotional experience has become a topic of conversation among everyone. Both of his marriages seem to be tied to his career and personal growth. But as his career sublimated, his feelings seemed to become fragile, and many young women became guests in his life.
However, Chen Kaige's story is not the only one. His persistence in the field of creation and his stubbornness in personal behavior are also worth pondering. He once described the negative experience of a soldier in his autobiography, but was caught in a defamation lawsuit.
Although the court ruled that he must apologize publicly, Chen initially refused. His film work "Baby" has also caused controversy for touching on sensitive topics such as surrogacy. As a director of the times, his works should naturally have a unique aesthetic and thinking.
However, his personality and behavior are often questioned by the outside world. A person's life cannot be smooth sailing, we do not need to blame idols for their mistakes, on the contrary, we should appreciate the brilliance in their works.
From Chen Kaige's story, we can also see that everyone has their own life trajectory, their own struggles and vulnerabilities. We should not fear the past, but embrace it bravely, and everyone should take responsibility for their own lives.
Perhaps we should not be harsh on the faults of our idols, because they are ordinary people like us, and they are also looking for their own light. A person's life is picturesque, and there is no need to complain about the intricate lines, but to appreciate the shimmering colors in it.
Finally, Chen Kaige's story also sounded the alarm for the entire entertainment industry. It is hoped that relevant departments can strengthen the supervision of the entertainment industry and create a healthier public opinion atmosphere. At the same time, the creative field should also deal with historical themes more carefully and create better works.
Although the road ahead is full of ups and downs, I firmly believe that China will continue to move forward and never forget its original intention. The future is sure to be even better. This turmoil may be a small whirlpool in the entertainment industry, but it is such a whirlpool that makes us move forward more firmly and pursue a better tomorrow.
