1. In-depth analysis of the current complex chaos in the entertainment industry, revealing the birth of Li Yuchun's unique "outlierous" image
The collapse of top stars in the domestic entertainment industry one after another made them disappear in an instant like meteors that briefly crossed the starry sky. What is jaw-dropping is that even in the face of so many "star fall" tragedies, there are still a large number of emerging artists who are like pigeons staring at cooked food with huge traffic and fame.
In the face of such a blind star-chasing craze, those who can stick to themselves and do not follow the crowd are particularly precious and irreplaceable.
At this moment, an astonishing speech by Li Yuchun, the first top idol of domestic entertainment in the past, has attracted widespread attention. She admitted that she had taken the initiative to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the traffic stage, and even disbanded the fan support club, and had not posted any news on Weibo for eight years.
Such a move is undoubtedly to resist the impetus of the market trend.
In this context, Li Yuchun, a maverick artist, has become a unique landscape in the domestic entertainment circle. Her outspokenness undoubtedly made a powerful criticism and questioning of the current chaotic status quo in the domestic entertainment industry.
2. Look back on Li Yuchun's journey from ordinary to brilliant, and compare the evolution of the original intention of the draft
Let's go back to that exciting moment in 2005, Li Yuchun successfully won the championship of the talent show "Super Girl" that year with the support of more than 3 million viewers voting through mobile phone text messages, and became a veritable "top-rated" superstar supported by the whole people.
With her popularity, the fan economy came into being, containing endless commercial profit margins.
However, who would have thought that this draft champion from the grassroots would resolutely choose "de-traffic" at the peak of his career. She not only disbanded her fan support association, but also completely gave up the operation of the Weibo social platform for eight years, completely staying away from the network traffic outlet at that time.
What's even more shocking is that just when Weibo was just emerging and celebrities from all walks of life were devoting themselves to Weibo's "business", Li Yuchun chose to turn his focus to a year's drama performance. Subsequently, she gradually set foot in the field of film and television, boldly challenging the role of a female in the movies "October Siege" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor".
She scoffed at the lifestyle of traffic stars, and used practical actions to resist all kinds of troubles brought to her by the traffic era. At the same time, quitting the online world is also to make up for his lack of life experience after becoming a teenager.
Li Yuchun could not accept the situation of being bound by the packaging of capital and needing to sacrifice his personal artistic pursuits.
She sharply questioned the way in which today's talent shows were "marketed," making a profound comparison with the sheer grassroots spirit of the early talent shows that "anyone can sing as long as they are meritorious," and she did not hesitate to oppose the latter.
3. Explore the motives and sacrifices of Li Yuchun's "de-traffic".
The reason why Li Yuchun is so determined to pursue "de-traffic" is not only her personal will, but also the passive helplessness in the market environment. Overnight, she rose from nobody to the center of global attention, appearing on the cover of Time magazine, a phenomenal symbolic figure.
However, behind the glorious glory, she also suffered unprecedented trouble, becoming the first victim of online violence in history, endured the spread of rumors, endless abuse, personal attacks, and vicious titles.
When she was pushed to the top, she was also ruthlessly pulled off the altar. Li Yuchun knows that he is just a wave in the sea, and the rise and fall of the waves depends on the power of the entire ocean, tides and even the moon.
Maintaining this "sober" self-awareness and reflective ability is not easy for many celebrities to survive for a long time in this vacuum world full of praise, and it is very easy for people to lose their way and lose their accurate judgment of their own positioning.
Recently, some celebrities who have been ridiculed for being questioned about "making money by traffic" are too blindly confident and have long lost their due respect for their profession. However, there are very few people who dare to "go to traffic", and the cost is daunting.
Once the exposure and activity decline, it means that it will be forgotten by the audience When Li Yuchun withdrew from Weibo and turned to the field of stage plays, she was also strongly opposed by industry insiders, because it would bring her huge economic losses.
Despite this, she still chooses to stick to her original intention, which stems from her strict requirements for herself, her desire to constantly break through herself, and she will never be satisfied with her past achievements. After all, there are countless actors who have been eaten by the traffic and have suffered the doom of "collapsed houses", and their acting careers have come to a standstill or even destroyed.
Only by "going to traffic" can we have the opportunity to leave eternal classics with our strength.
4. Review the fine tradition of "de-traffic" in the Hong Kong music scene
As a matter of fact, Li Yuchun's "de-traffic" action is not the only one in the Hong Kong music scene! As early as the 2000th year AD, the king-level singer Alan Tam issued a statement, declaring that from now on, he will bid farewell to all music auditions and award ceremonies, and refuse to accept any form of awards.
Before that, many bright superstars such as Leslie Cheung, Anita Mui, Liming, Jacky Cheung, Xu Guanjie and many other bright superstars also chose to take the initiative to "go to traffic". Some have chosen to quit music altogether, while others have firmly resisted winning any individual awards again.
The reason for their decision is that on the one hand, they are careful and careful planning for their own careers, and on the other hand, they are also leading by example, injecting new vitality and diversified development momentum into the Hong Kong music scene.
Anita Mui once sincerely said that instead of being subject to the complicated external environment and affecting her singing career, it is better to return to her heart and regain her original love and dedication to music, which is the most gratifying thing.
These veteran superstars, who have become famous and have a stable status like Mount Tai, choose to take the initiative to "go to traffic", precisely because for them, traffic has become as illusory as a mirror and has lost its original importance.
Only by getting rid of those exaggerated external packaging can we truly gain insight into the intrinsic value of artistic creation.
Part 5: Expose the chaos caused by the flood of traffic in today's entertainment industry
Nowadays, the entertainment industry in Chinese mainland is dominated by a flood of traffic stars, full of highly packaged human images of capital, and fabricated so-called "inspirational stories".
These are all based on fiction, and they simply cannot really support an artist's long-term career.
Even the stars who are regarded as "top streamers" will not escape the doom of "collapsed houses" in the end, and the reason for this is precisely because they lack solid strength as a foundation. Many people join the entertainment industry, not because of their love for music or performing arts, but directly regard "becoming a star to make money" as their only pursuit.
In the past, the existence of idols symbolized role models and role models in life. However, to this day, the purpose of the existence of many so-called "idols" is just to get a sky-high salary and barely make ends meet, except for showing their so-called acting skills at the moment of "selling miserably", the rest of the time they do nothing.
In the face of doubts about their performance skills from all walks of life, many so-called "traffic stars" still wantonly rely on their false and exaggerated traffic figures to hide people's eyes.
What is presented, however, is a puzzlingly close complicity between the actor and the fans.
Those enthusiastic fans behave like fanatical believers, worshipping these fabricated numbers as gods and calling them "achievements"; On the other hand, those celebrities are taking advantage of the trend and are willing to become slaves to these numbers.
However, for the majority of audiences, they are more concerned about the real strength of the actors in the actual works.
6. In-depth analysis of the far-reaching significance of "de-traffic".
When those stars bravely chose to "go to traffic", it undoubtedly brought a surprise to the audience. This not only enables artists to get rid of the hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry and devote themselves to the creation of high-quality works, but also makes the relationship between stars and fans more pure, injecting more positive energy into the entire circle.
Taking Li Yuchun as an example, she took the initiative to give up the shackles of traffic, so that the fans affected by her could also return to the original intention of simply appreciating idols. There is no longer a frenzied "business", control reviews, and tearing up positions for the sake of data, but instead build a real communication bridge between actors and fans through sincere works and personal strength.
"De-traffic" does bring many benefits to artists, but to achieve this goal, two key conditions need to be met: first, there must be a clear self-awareness and be able to self-reflect frequently; Secondly, it is necessary to have a solid work strength as a support, so that after the traffic halo gradually fades, it can still win the love of the audience and realize the embodiment of self-worth.
What the audience really cherishes and appreciates is not those ethereal traffic figures, but the excellent works created by the actors with all their might. The ultimate goal of "de-traffic" is to allow the actors to focus on improving their own strength and dedicating more classics to the audience.
