The results of the first round of the battle of 8 movies in the May 1st file are out - the front row congratulates Wang Yibo for starring in the movie "Peacekeeping Anti-riot Team" for breaking 400 million at the box office and winning the schedule championship, but I want to remind you that the second round of competition is just around the corner, and the real ending has not yet come!
You must know that in addition to the official announcement of the withdrawal of the movie "There is No Thing That Can't Be Solved by a Hot Pot" starring Yang Mi, the other 7 films, including "Peacekeeping Anti-riot Team", will also face long-term challenges, without holiday dividends, and new films are eyeing up, the pressure on these May Day movies is even greater, and the current Hong Kong film "The Siege of Kowloon Walled City" has unexpectedly performed well, and there is a trend of hitting the Japanese box office champion.
As the only live-action film with a score of 7 in the May 1st movie, the initial word-of-mouth of "The Siege of the Kowloon Walled City" was polarized, and many viewers said that they were tired of seeing the old faces in the Hong Kong circle, but with the increase in the number of moviegoers, the word-of-mouth of "Kowloon Walled City" gradually reversed, and there is a very important reason, that is, there is a "newcomer" who stands out from the encirclement, and it is Liu Junqian, who plays Xinyi in the film, who can be called the most handsome supporting role in the whole film.
On all major platforms on the whole network, from forums to the comment area of the movie promotion account, you can see a lot of audience feedback, originally I went to watch "Kowloon Walled City" for the protagonist, but I fell in love with Xinyi.
Liu Junqian's own account comment area also "fell", and some netizens directly called him "new husband", and it is not difficult to find that the netizens who left messages were attracted by the role of Xinyi.
Of course, it doesn't mean that Louis Koo and Lin Feng didn't perform well enough in "Kowloon Walled City", and they were turned off the table by the villain Xinyi, as netizens said, the role of Xinyi wins in freshness, compared with the familiar faces in the Hong Kong circle, and finally an unknown actor appears, and the audience will inevitably be curious.
In addition, Xinyi's character in the movie is also very fashionable, as one of the four young people in the walled city, he looks delicate and exquisite than others, it can be said that he won in the sense of contrast, and it can be regarded as a correct direction for the rise of the Hong Kong circle - don't patronize the old man to sell feelings, from the plot to the role, you have to keep up with the audience's orientation today, and there is a chance to break through and innovate.
However, some netizens pointed out that don't look at the letter, Liu Junqian didn't explode, although the actor's account had a few more audience messages, but it did not convert into his own fans, that is to say, he can't have box office appeal like Louis Koo and others.
In fact, before Xinyi, because of "All or Nothing", there was also a "newcomer" in the Hong Kong circle, that is, Sun Yang who played Ah Cai, and then he participated in two movies "The Eighth Suspect" and "Mr. Red Carpet" one after another, but they failed to get praise, the former's acting skills overturned and the latter overturned at the box office, which is enough to reflect the instability of these newcomers in the Hong Kong circle.
The audience likes Shinyi, but they also clearly realize that their good impression of Shinichi relies on the character filter, which also includes styling bonuses, and left "Kowloon Walled City" without instant noodles, Liu Junqian is directly two people in and out of the play, and there is no similarity between the actor and the character.
Liu Junqian himself does not mean to "cherish feathers", he was born as an athlete, and he entered the entertainment industry by chance, and his next work turned out to be starring in a niche movie, and he played a couple with Taiwanese actor Fan Shaoxun, which can also be seen to lack of planning for his personal career development.
In fact, Liu Junqian was also praised by the Hong Kong circle, and also played Leslie Cheung in the movie "Anita Mui", and was scolded as soon as it was released, until 2024, there are still people who continue to give Liu Junqian bad reviews, which shows that his own acting skills still have certain limitations.
After some netizens learned about Liu Junqian's past, they watched him on Xiao S's show, and learned that he couldn't read the name of the winner at the awards ceremony, and after knowing that he had a girlfriend, he lined up one by one to "break his heart", these details about the actor himself are not a big problem, let alone a rollover, but they made the audience instantly bow down to the "most handsome supporting actor" filter, and it can only be said that Liu Junqian may be a good actor, but there is still no way to take over the Hong Kong circle.
From A Cai to Xinyi, from Sun Yang to Liu Junqian, although they are newcomers in the Hong Kong circle, they are all around 35 years old, and they belong to the actors who have been stereotyped, and the freshness they can bring is only temporary, and it is not realistic to rely on a certain role or someone to regain the glory of the Hong Kong circle, and they still have to make a breakthrough in the quality of the movie.
