In recent years, veteran Hong Kong star Li Guolin, who has starred in the role of the classic Hong Kong drama TVB97 version of "Dragon Babu", has deeply explored the mainland market, and has been involved in live streaming, brand advertising, and commercial performances, becoming one of the few green leaf artists in the Hong Kong circle who can earn a huge income without filming. Recently, he participated in "The Case of Bad Weather 2" in an interview with Hong Kong media and talked about the issue of TVB and his daughter entering the industry.
Li Guolin said that he is still a TVB artist, signed a "show a year" contract, and participated in Liu Jiahao's retirement work "Strange Case 2" was last year's work task, and later starred in "News Queen" because he received a call from Zhong Shujia.
"I filmed "News Queen" for three days, and on the third day, I started filming "Strange Case 2". acted hysterically in "News Queen", and returned to "Strange Case 2" to film conference room scenes, and there was a problem with the voice, and he had to dub afterwards. He said.
Unlike many TVB active or former Luye longing for the company to arrange more dramas, Li Guolin is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people because the role of Gu Mozhi is well-known in the mainland, and being assigned too much work hinders making money, so he hopes that the workload of filming in Hong Kong will be smaller, but it has not been officially expressed because of his affection.
"I was embarrassed to negotiate the filming date, as if it hindered the crew from starting work, I wanted to go north to make money, but I signed a contract with TVB, and I must fulfill my obligations as an artist...... In Hong Kong, if I only rely on TVB, I can't make money, now my mainland social platform is OK, I really want to make more money, I'm dozens of years old now, and I don't have much time to make money, I hope it's better to let me go. ”
Of course, don't look at Li Guolin's complaints about the filming arrangement, but in fact, he still has a lot of feelings for TVB, he understands that he can have today's popularity and money-making opportunities, all from the roles given by the company, he is very grateful for this, and hopes that the two sides will continue to maintain a good relationship.
"I will join TVB next year for 50 years, do you say TVB is not good? They have raised my family for decades, giving me the opportunity to make money outside. There are several dramas that are regarded as classics in the mainland, and I am really grateful to the company. ”
Talking about the next development plan, Li Guolin said that he will still focus on the mainland market, but will no longer engage in live broadcasts with goods, and even if there is a live broadcast, he will chat with fans and netizens, hoping to accumulate more fans and traffic, and finally achieve realization.
"There is no income from doing a certain sound. But when you get traffic, there will be a lot of advertising invitations, such as tea, liquor, mobile games, etc., and I shot 12 mobile game advertisements alone. ”
In addition, Li Guolin respects his daughter's always wanted to engage in the actor industry, but he also admitted that the Hong Kong film and television industry is shrinking, and the road to entry will be very difficult, especially if she wants to join ViuTV, she is very worried in her heart.
"She recently came back from the UK, and she hasn't finished her studies yet, so she doesn't know what nerves she wants to interview for ViuTV, or if it's the second interview, and she doesn't know what kind of actress she is. I told her, you have to understand that a TV station is in business, not cultivating talents, they are engaged in such projects, you have to think clearly, you may be put on the stage by others, this is my personal opinion, you can try. During her first interview, the staff asked her, "Will your dad come?" I'm not sure I'm often absent from Hong Kong, but I support my daughter and just hope she doesn't learn badly and go the wrong way. ”
In the editor's opinion, Li Guolin wants to go north to make money and reduce his filming work in Hong Kong, which is correct in terms of reason and law, TVB will not have an opinion, and may even benefit from it, after all, this proves TVB's star-making ability and foreign influence, even if young people who are interested in entering the industry no longer like it, they will also take into account the exposure rate of the broad market.
As for Li Guolin's daughter going to ViuTV for an interview, I don't think there is any problem, brothers, sisters, mothers and sons have long served in different TV stations, and Huang Xinmei and Huang Xinying are examples, she has no obligation to be loyal to TVB, as long as she is responsible for herself. However, ViuTV's drama resources have always been tilted towards male stars, and female stars have COLLAR in charge, and she successfully interviewed and joined smoothly, I am afraid it will be difficult to do much.
