This should be the most explosive news recently, Stephen Chow is going out of the mountain. However, it is not a movie, he has put his mind on short plays, and "9527 Theater" should be launched in May next year. A long time ago, I felt that Xing Ye was making up something, and it looked like there was but there was no news. This time, he finally put what he was doing on the table, and many people were looking forward to it.
Netizens have said that their childhood is back, the classic star is about to appear, etc., similar voices are getting stronger and stronger, and some people even use words like "domestic entertainment is about to take off" to describe Stephen Chow's appearance. It is understood that he reached a micro-short drama cooperation with a short video platform. Focusing on the topic of "9527 Theater", Stephen Chow will create with some creators as the initiator.
The number "9527" is very familiar to everyone. Stephen Chow used this set of numbers as his code name in many of his early works. One thing is for sure, his future creations are all based on his past works, and we should not be disappointed too much. Let's be excited, but don't go too far, there is a saying that "the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment", and it is time to sound a wake-up call for you.
First of all, you pay attention to the movie "Kung Fu" in 04, I think it is his last outstanding work. Since then, "Yangtze River No. 7", "Mermaid", "Journey to the West" and so on, are all overwhelmed. Some people say that he didn't make it to the next few films, and it was played by someone else. But this is also the hard work of Xing Ye! The lines, scripts, and characters are all arranged by him, and it can be said that he can't think of a better book.
You have to admit that the first is that Xing Ye is old, and second, our aesthetics are not the 90s. Any script needs to be created according to the current environment, and the current society is not at all like it was back then. You miss Xing Ye and his movies, but you actually miss your youth that will never return, and it can't be said that Stephen Chow must be full of burdens, better than directors such as Liu Zhenwei and Wang Jing.
Secondly, do you want Stephen Chow to appear on the scene, or use some young people to play it. Now that Xing Ye appears on the scene, he will definitely not find Shi Banyu to dub it, right? Half of his success back then was because of Shi Banyu, without Shi Banyu, do you think it still tastes? Moreover, Stephen Chow's Mandarin is not particularly standard, it is difficult for you to let him speak all the lines fluently, how to make you laugh?
Besides, have you watched the short dramas on the platform now? Most of them are charged, basically free to watch for three minutes. After all, filming costs money, and if they don't make a penny, how can they continue to operate. So, does Xing Ye charge anything? Okay, you don't charge. Whether others have an opinion or not, it is equivalent to him breaking the rules of this industry. Some people with ulterior motives may even be bad.
I remember a netizen mentioned that she said, "When will it be a head to spend seventy or eighty yuan a night?" because she was obsessed with the tight plot of the short drama, but she also fell into the paid "serial set" and addiction anxiety. She spent 69 yuan for 10 episodes, and the more she watched it, the more she watched, the more she got up, and some short drama platforms would automatically renew the fee, reminding that the charge was not obvious. The current reputation of the short drama is not good, so Stephen Chow still needs to overcome this difficulty. In short, there are many difficulties in front of him, and we can't put all our hopes on him, otherwise we will be disappointed.
