"Pan Jinlian" is not much in front of the door.
In 2016, "Pan Jinlian" set off a round of scolding war on the Internet.
Because "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" is low-seated, Feng Xiaogang "rushes to the crown and is angry and red-faced".
In the tone of the little girl Jin Lian, he sent a letter to Wanda boss Wang Jianlin, and openly and secretly pointed out that Wang Jianlin targeted him and did not give a schedule.
Subsequently, Wang Sicong "went out on behalf of his father", echoing Feng Xiaogang's yin and yang weirdness, alluding to Feng Xiaogang's movies through money who did not earn money.
Here, Huayi behind Feng Xiaogang was not willing to show weakness, and joined the melee between the two.
The drama of several men fighting for a woman immediately pushed "Pan Jinlian" to a climax.
If not to mention that Feng Xiaogang is extremely smart.
A scolding battle, not only won the popularity of "Pan Jinlian", but also made money in his pocket.
Jiang Wen is still wondering in "Let the Bullets Fly", "How can I stand again and earn money again?" "When,
Feng Xiaogang had already learned to pick up the bowl to eat without a teacher, put down the chopsticks and scold the mother.
"I am not Pan Jinlian" ended up in a chicken feather, and when Feng Xiaogang was directly accused of "eating ugly", he did not care for a long time.
Ye Jing once commented on Feng Xiaogang as a person, "Very good at being a person, with a strong sense of purpose. ”
If you have known Feng Xiaogang as a person, you will not be surprised by all this he has done.
01
Feng Xiaogang was born in 1958 to an ordinary family in Beijing.
When he was one year old, because of Feng Xiaogang's father's political problems, Feng Xiaogang's parents divorced.
His mother grew up alone to pull him and his sister.
Orphans and widows, it is so easy to get a foothold in Beijing.
In the dim light, the mother of the busy day brought back some leftovers and added some hot water to the cold meal, and the two children sat at the table and could not help themselves.
Feng Xiaogang's mother once took his hand and said to him, "You will be smooth and profitable, all the sufferings will be tasted by your mother for you, and if you have a job, my sins will not be in vain." ”
This sentence has been remembered in Feng Xiaogang's heart.
Birth has made Feng Xiaogang taste the bitterness and warmth of human feelings, and it has also made him firm in his belief in climbing up.
At that time, Feng Xiaogang was still a small artist in Chen Kai's opera group.
Without strength and background, every day can only do some chores in the crew, and people are called to come and go.
Feng Xiaogang, who was not willing to stop here, hitched a ride on Zheng Xiaolong.
It is the Zheng Xiaolong who has filmed a series of excellent works such as "Four Generations In the Same House", "Golden Marriage", "The Biography of Mi Yue" and other excellent works, and has become popular with Shao Hua, Zheng Bangyu, Zhang Guoguo, Jiang Wenli, Lin Yongjian and Sun Li.
At that time, Zheng Xiaolong was still in charge of production at the Beijing Television Drama Art Center, and Feng Xiaogang followed him in the saddle, holding Zheng Xiaolong comfortable, and finally agreed to match him with Wang Shuo.
It can be said that Wang Shuo is the kind of person that Feng Xiaogang most wants to become.
Rich and literate, friends around him also grabbed a lot.
Even in the courtyard full of talents, Wang Shuo is definitely the soul of it.
Jiang Wen directly pulled a banner in the filming of "Sunny Days", which read: The sun is always shining, and Shuo Ye is always bullish.
Feng Xiaogang, who was tightly clutching Wang Shuo's trouser legs, finally entered the compound as he wished.
He thought he would be able to get ahead from then on, but reality dealt him a blow after all.
At that time, the people who could get in touch with popular culture were not at the top of the pyramid, but definitely on the top of the pyramid.
A group of proud sons of heaven, xenophobia is naturally very serious.
As a grassroots class brought in, Feng Xiaogang is naturally like a small cabbage that "grandma doesn't hurt, uncle doesn't love".
There is no other way but to try to cling to these people.
Among them, Wang Shuo was particularly serious.
Not only did he recite all of Wang Shuo's novels backwards, but he also praised Wang Shuo like an article submitted in a newspaper, openly and secretly.
Although Wang Shuo was also considered to be a star holding the moon in the compound before, everyone was the proud son of heaven, who would always hold you high.
But Feng Xiaogang was different, not only did he always hold Wang Shuo high, but he also meticulously completed the big and small things that Wang Shuo commanded.
All day long Teacher Wang, Teacher Wang short, deeply won Wang Shuo's heart.
It coincided with wang Shuo's script "The Story of the Editorial Department", written specifically for Zheng Xiaolong, which was lost before filming began.
The people who had worked together to polish the script together had other jobs, and Wang Shuo was at a loss.
Feng Xiaogang, who had already become acquainted, took advantage of this to introduce himself.
Together, the two completed a new screenplay for The Story of the Editorial Board.
Feng Xiaogang's position in Wang Shuo's heart was finally promoted from a well-used small heel to a figure who could see it squarely.
Feng Xiaogang, who had finally entered Wang Shuo's eyes, couldn't help but stir up at the same time as he was complacent.
02
Feng Xiaogang, who prides himself on being a young talent, is also a talented man who gradually loses his eye to the chaff wife in the family.
At that time, Xu Fan, who had just fallen out with Wang Zhiwen and was swept out of the door, entered Feng Xiaogang's sight.
Feng Xiaogang, who was mixed with red and red behind Wang Shuo, was just full of ambition.
Although he didn't look very good, he wore leather clothes, leather pants, and rode a motorcycle every day.
But Yixin wants to be like Wang Shuo, find a female college student, and pursue his spiritual partner.
Xu Fan, who is tall and beautiful, naturally does not look up to such a second-rate character.
What she likes is always her own teacher, and she is also a talent like the former Wang Zhiwen.
But the spirited woman was afraid of Lang Entanglement, and Wang Shuo was constantly wired in it.
Xu Fan eventually fell.
If it were not for Feng Xiaogang's wife who has been around for 8 years, this relationship may still be called a good story.
However, Feng Xiaogang, who is proud of the love scene, began to be frequently frustrated in the workplace.
In 1994, in the prime of life, Feng Xiaogang, who was determined to do a big job, Wang Shuo and Wang Shuo invested in the establishment of Good Dream Company.
Unfortunately, Good Dream Company not only did not bring them good dreams, but also had nightmares.
Wang Shuo was criticized by the whole country for preaching grayism.
As a last resort, Wang Shuo patted his ass and left for the United States. Left a mess to Feng Xiaogang.
The films and televisions previously planned for filming were stillborn and could not be released.
Investors even heard their names and changed color.
It was hard to follow Wang Shuo in the film circle, and Feng Xiaogang, who had already invested so much money, did not want to leave easily.
At this time, Han Sanping, director of the North Film Studio, and Zhang Heping, general manager of the Beijing Forbidden City Film Company, found Feng Xiaogang, who was trying to turn over.
At that time, Jackie Chan took "Red Fan District" to the box office of 95 million during the New Year, which made countless film studios hungry.
Zhang Heping and Han Sanping also want to create a movie that reflects social hot spots to impact the New Year file.
It was really dozing off and sending pillows.
Feng Xiaogang did not say a word and recommended Wang Shuo's "You Are Not a Layman" to them.
The script was quickly adopted, and the film was also named "Party A and Party B".
Feng Xiaogang, who was in a broken boat, invested all his savings in it.
At that time, the film was first screened in theaters, the sound of the film had a problem, Feng Xiaogang immediately went crazy, a grandfather, crying in the movie hall, tears and snot came out.
I also have to rent a car temporarily, and drag the whole theater to another theater to see if there is a problem.
In 1997, the film was a big hit, and Feng Xiaogang became famous for a while.
After this, the "Not Seen, Not Scattered" and "Endless" made with a single blow directly established his position in the film and television circle.
In 1999, Feng Xiaogang, who was proud of the spring breeze, finally achieved positive results with Xu Fan as he wished.
In this regard, Feng Xiaogang self-evaluated, "Flowers are finally planted on cow dung. ”
Xu Fan followed Feng Xiaogang for 6 years without a name.
Feng Xiaogang's film "A Sigh" about extramarital affairs is an exposition of the feelings of the three people.
Interestingly, Xu Fan plays Feng Xiaogang's wife, Zhang Di, in the play.
In the play, she witnesses her husband cheating, but for the sake of the family, she has to bend the rules and treat everything as if it didn't happen.
And such a story, within a few years, Xu Fan staged another wave in reality.
At that time, Feng Xiaogang and Shen Xing fought fiercely, and Shen Xing divorced her husband in order to force the palace.
However, since he had forced the palace to go through the original Zhang Di, how could Xu Fan not have a way to deal with it.
A move to retreat directly forced Shen Xing to have no way to deal with it, and Feng Xiaogang finally returned to her embrace.
Years later, Venus asked Xu Fan about this topic again.
Xu Fanyang's triumphant sentence "Our family man, it is not us who suffer losses" caused an uproar.
I also have to sigh that Xu Fan and Feng Xiaogang are really a "natural pair".
Xu Fan's forbearance and tolerance only changed back to Feng Xiaogang's sentence, "Our family Fanzi is really a good wife and mother." ”
Feng Xiaogang, who has studied the flow of the great director over and over again, has always wanted to come up with a work comparable to that of the great director.
03
In Feng Xiaogang's heart, commercial films such as "Party A and Party B" have always been their own choice under the helplessness of being forced.
Feng Xiaogang, who was born in Yeluzi, has always wanted to get the real approval of others.
Only when it is truly recognized by people in the same industry can it be considered a real success.
So when some people said that their success was all dependent on "New Year + Ge You", Feng Xiaogang ignored Huayi's persuasion and insisted on shooting "A Sigh".
I hope to take this literary and artistic film that does not have Ge You to join, and give a loud slap to those who are not optimistic about themselves.
The success of this film can be said to have given Feng Xiaogang a lot of confidence.
Feng Xiaogang, who has always been dissatisfied with the audience's positioning as a "commercial film director", took the opportunity to convince Huayi behind him and began to seek transformation.
At that time, Zhang Yimou's "Hero" won 250 million yuan at the box office in 2002.
This gave Feng Xiaogang a great stimulus.
Immediately Feng Xiaogang began the preparation of "Night Feast" in full swing, and as a result, this film not only did not meet Huayi's expectations, but also made Feng Xiaogang's reputation for the film that has been smooth sailing was declined.
Although the film failed, Feng Xiaogang's heart to transform into an art film became more and more hot.
Feng Xiaogang, who consciously can't integrate with other great directors, is eager to come up with a work with feelings to prove himself.
So he was exposed to major historical themes for the first time, and filmed "The Gathering Number", which carried forward the main theme.
In 2007, "The Gathering Number" was released, and the works of the same period included "Letter of Submission" of Hong Kong Circle Capital going north.
At that time, no one in the industry was optimistic about this work, and Huayi only looked at Feng Xiaogang's "cash cow" and reluctantly let him try.
This film, which many people think is gray, shines as soon as it is screened, winning 260 million at the box office, making the questioned Feng Xiaogang play a beautiful turnaround.
With "The Gathering Number", the media even compared Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou to the best directors in China.
Feng Xiaogang, who was too happy to find the north, was full of confidence in himself.
Then "Tangshan Earthquake" began filming.
The film was a big hit at the time, earning Feng Xiaogang another box office and word of mouth.
However, Xu Fan, who served as the heroine, lost in the battle for the Golden Horse Shadow Queen.
Feng Xiaogang first posted an article, saying that Xu Fan was a victim of the line struggle, and the golden horse award judges hated you too late, how could it be possible to give you an award.
But when "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" won the Golden Horse Awards, Feng Xiaogang, who held the trophy in his hand, smiled and said, "Thanks to the Golden Horse Awards, I truly experience justice." ”
Although he repeatedly wanted to separate himself from commercial money, the mercenary intention in Feng Xiaogang's bones could not be erased.
Originally, because of the scheduling problem of "I am not Pan Jinlian", a round of scolding war was launched with Wang Sicong.
But after waiting for the heat he wanted, Feng Xiaogang could go forward to apologize and ask for forgiveness regardless of his face.
It is undeniable that Feng Xiaogang does indeed have his own feelings and ideals.
When he was first recommended by Wang Shuo to watch "Wen Gu 1942", the human tragedy caused by the famine in Henan deeply shocked Feng Xiaogang.
Feng Xiaogang, who wanted to make this movie, grinded Liu Zhenyun for nine years before finally let Liu Zhenyun relax and write a 140,000-word script.
After countless reviews, the film was finally shot in 2012.
This film that cost a lot of money to shoot, Feng Xiaogang is full of feelings and expectations for it.
However, this film failed miserably to "Tai 囧" that year, and the blow to Feng Xiaogang was huge.
"Do Not Disturb", which was casually filmed but sold well, and "Nineteen Forty-Two", which was carefully polished but no one bought it.
Feng Xiaogang, who was indignant but could not be relieved, began his own road of "small steel cannon" from then on.
04
At the 20th Shanghai International Film Festival Forum in 2017, Feng Xiaogang sat in a chair and bluntly denounced that there are so many junk movies in China because there are so many junk audiences.
As soon as this remark came out, it angered the national audience.
People's Daily even commented: Instead of complaining about the audience's garbage, it is better to seriously cultivate the work.
But Feng Xiaogang, who felt that he had already come out, did not take all this to heart.
Feng Xiaogang's initial films always focus on the struggling life of small people at the bottom, he has experienced, and all the shootings can especially resonate with the audience.
But as he slowly became famous, his gaze was no longer willing to look down at the audience at the bottom.
In 2019, "Mobile Phone 2" was released, and in the poster released, Feng Xiaogang was reclining on the body of the beauty Fan Moubing, under the brim of his hat, and his expression was wide-eyed.
Some people say that the posture of the three people in this poster corresponds to their respective identities and personalities, and eventually they also lose in reality in their appearance.
A bloody case caused by "mobile phones" stripped Feng Xiaogang of his desperately saved face, directly ruined Fan Moubing's acting career, and Liu Zhenyun's fig leaf was also stepped on.
This story has to start 17 years ago.
At that time, some of the plots in Feng Xiaogang's "Mobile Phone" were accused of mirroring Cui Yongyuan, who was the host of CCTV's "Tell the Truth" column at the time, which brought great trouble to Cui Yongyuan's life at that time.
The two have had a conflict before.
So when "Mobile Phone 2" started filming again, Cui Yongyuan privately discussed with screenwriter Liu Zhenyun to see if he could not shoot this sequel.
But in the face of interests, what did the previous brotherhood gain?
Cui Yongyuan, who was rejected, was furious and shelled Feng Xiaogang, Liu Zhenyun, Fan Bingbing and others on Weibo.
Between the two sides, you come and go, watching "Mobile Phone 2" start shooting is imminent, Cui Yongyuan directly aimed at the capital Huayi behind Feng Xiaogang.
The gray industrial chains such as "yin and yang contracts" and "tax evasion and evasion" in the film and television circle will be directly exposed.
Cui Yongyuan's step-by-step pressing finally made Feng Xiaogang untenable.
Not only did he respond to this matter for the first time on Weibo, but he also made a whole "Ten Questions Cui Yongyuan" to save his dignity.
And it is also conclusive that everything Cui Yongyuan said is malicious rumors and smears, unless the earth is destroyed, "Mobile Phone 2" will always exist.
Old partner Liu Zhenyun also took the opportunity to take a stand, sending out a long article angrily reprimanding Cui Yongyuan for being unreasonable.
However, this vigorous farce finally ended with Fan Moubing making up 900 million yuan and being completely banned by the entertainment industry.
Although they were saved, Feng Xiaogang and Liu Zhenyun did not end up doing well in the end.
Not to mention losing a lot of money, his reputation is completely stinky.
Feng Xiaogang, who was forced to slowly fall silent in the movie theater, reluctantly turned his eyes to the TV series.
Once openly ridiculed women in public for their limited IQ,
Advocating that men in the world are the same, in the face of their husbands looking for flowers and asking for willows, women should tolerate the gentle Feng Xiaogang,
In the face of today's female market, we have to start shooting the hottest women's TV series.
In cooperation with iQiyi, we have joined hands to create a group portrait drama focusing on women's perspectives, "South and North".
The actors also brought together Song Dandan, Liu Xiaoqing, Huang Bo and other big names to join.
Among the mansions worth tens of millions of dollars in Beijing, the average price of sanwu micro-business products is used.
Even in order to satisfy the addiction of the iQiyi boss to act, he also specially arranged a plot for him that could not be related.
epilogue
From the bottom of society to today's position, it is undeniable that Feng Xiaogang himself is smart.
In order to have a chance, he can do whatever it takes to make a small low, just to seize the opportunity to jump upwards.
He has both the side of not giving up his ideals and pursuing the feelings of nothingness, and the side of the businessman who pursues fame and profit and bows his head for the powerful.
It's just that as his fame grew, his original intention of making the film had long been worn out in Vanity Fair.
Obviously, he advertises himself as a literary and artistic director with pursuits, but when faced with the temptation of money, he will pursue money without surprise.
Feng Xiaogang, who climbed up from the bottom of the pit, not only wanted to cling to the money in his hand, but also did not want others to say that he was smelly of copper.
But from ancient times to the present, what good thing is there?
