Ye Jing once commented on Feng Xiaogang: "His greatest intelligence is to be good at using smarter people!" ”
In the 80s, Wang Shuo's four works were put on the screen, and during that time, many film and television resources were inseparable from the Beijing circle where he was located, but at this time, his good partner Feng Xiaogang had not yet mixed into this circle, and he was still working as an artist in Chen Kaige's crew.
But the opportunity to wait for him soon came, once Feng Xiaogang met Zheng Xiaolong in the crew was reading Wang Shuo's new book, so he went forward to talk, and after learning that Wang Shuo was Zheng Xiaolong's good brother, Feng Xiaogang quickly seized the opportunity to ask him to help introduce.
And Zheng Xiaolong unexpectedly invited Wang Shuo and let Feng Xiaogang have a meal with them, and at this dinner, Feng Xiaogang exaggerated Wang Shuo from beginning to end with his "three inches of non-rotten tongue", making Wang Shuo once think that he had a plot against himself.
The fact is that Feng Xiaogang does worship Wang Shuo and does have a plan for him.
Later, Feng Xiaogang mixed into their circle, following behind them all day to serve tea and pour water, although Wang Shuo was not accustomed to his slightly "flattering" face, but finally accepted him, in his original words: "If a person shoots you every day, you can't be anxious with him!" ”
In 1991, Wang Shuo and others began to plan the filming of "The Story of the Editorial Department", a total of more than 20 episodes of the plot, Wang Shuo created most of them, and Feng Xiaogang also participated in the creation of several episodes.
After the broadcast of this drama, Feng Xiaogang showed his face in the circle, and in addition, he also further contracted with Wang Shuo, Zheng Xiaolong and others.
So subsequently, he founded the Good Dream Company together with Wang Shuo, Ge You and others, and the Good Dream Company is like "Party A and Party B" helping people realize their dreams, helping them realize their dreams of filming.
However, the good times did not last long, and then Wang Shuo's films were killed one after another, and his works were also crowned with the hat of "promoting grayism", which was banned.
After that, he divorced his ex-wife and went to the United States by himself, and in order not to involve Feng Xiaogang, he even asked Feng Xiaogang's works not to hang his name, but Feng Xiaogang was really obedient, he really did not hang!
After the release of the movie "Party A and Party B", Wang Shuo's name did not appear in the list of cast members from beginning to end.
But Feng Xiaogang did not do anything desperately, at that time the film box office was as high as 36 million, Feng Xiaogang personally earned more than 1 million, he also deliberately took out 50,000 yuan to send to Wang Shuo, but Wang Shuo did not want, but it was not disgusted with money, but had long been tired of Feng Xiaogang's way of doing things.
In fact, Feng Xiaogang seems to have mixed into the Beijing circle, but in fact, it is still different from them, Ye Jing's "Story Related to Youth", Feng Xiaogang was filmed as a bully, afraid of hard, obscene and crying nose Feng pants, and Wang Shuo in "You are not a layman", but also Feng Xiaogang wrote as a "praise expert", Ma Weidu also said that Feng Xiaogang and Wang Shuo are mutually using each other.
It is precisely because of this that their relationship has come to an abrupt end, but Feng Xiaogang does not care about this, after all, he still has some talent, otherwise even the best book can only be reduced to a bad film.
In 1999, Feng Xiaogang opened the curtain of the New Year film for the first time, and "Endless" was released and earned 33 million at the box office, and he also successfully became the leader of the fifth generation of directors.
However, with Feng Xiaogang's counterattack all the way, it is only the box office of his movies, and his character reputation that has fallen all the way.
In 2009, Feng Xiaogang was photographed staying overnight with CCTV host Shen Xing for 8 hours, and after the incident, Shen Xing disappeared, but he was unharmed, and Xu Fan's handling method was even more bizarre: "Anyway, our family is a man, not a loss!" ”
What did Feng Xiaogang do to coax Xu Fan to be so generous? Looking back at the love history of the two people, you will know that Xu Fan is simply too humble in this relationship.
Before Xu Fan, Feng Xiaogang once had a marriage, his ex-wife Zhang Di gave birth to a daughter Feng Siyu for him, but as Feng Xiaogang became more and more popular in the entertainment industry, his relationship with Zhang Di slowly faded, and when his daughter was only 1 year old, Feng Xiaogang changed his heart.
In 1992, Feng Xiaogang and Zheng Xiaolong cooperated in the film "Big Sasang", the heroine is Xu Fan, at this time Xu Fan has just been driven out of the house by Wang Zhiwen because of a scandal with director Tian Zhuangzhuang, and is in the empty window period of feelings, so Feng Xiaogang just took advantage of the void.
When she just met the first side, Xu Fan's impression of Feng Xiaogang was not good, because at this time she just heard Feng Xiaogang comment on her heroine in the movie "almost", but Feng Xiaogang did not care, and later because the movie was going to award, he and Xu Fan met again on the plane, at that time he introduced Xu Fan as his girlfriend, so that Xu Fan had no choice but to let him sit next to him.
Later, together with Wang Shuo, he had to take Xu Fan to eat "reminiscences", and when he was carried by the car to the wilderness ridge, Xu Fan had no chance to "get off the thief's boat", so he came and went, and the two gradually came together.
But at this time, Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Di had not yet divorced, and Xu Fan was willing to stay in the position of "Xiao San" for 7 years, which waited for the position of "Zhenggong".
After marriage, Xu Fan did not give birth to a son and a half daughter for Feng Xiaogang, but instead adopted a daughter Xu Duo, and for Feng Xiaogang's eldest daughter, Xu Fan never asked much.
Over the years, Feng Xiaogang's remarks have always been filled with the idea of straight male cancer, and even reflected in his works, such as posting some fake chicken soup on Weibo, which means that the two mouths in the marriage should be confused, and they can't rub sand in their eyes.
He even praised 900 million chests in public in front of the media, so that miao Miao, the heroine of "Fanghua", danced in front of everyone to cheer, and was in the same room with the female host Shen Xing for 8 hours.
And what about Xu Fan on the other side? Not only did he not give up this marriage, but he also spoke for Feng Xiaogang in turn, feeling that he was an "abandoned baby" adopted by Feng Xiaogang, and it was difficult to imagine what Xu Fan really thought.
But now that her all the way to the end has finally exchanged Feng Xiaogang's peace of mind to return to the family, whether it is forced or not, after all, for Xu Fan, the result is good.
However, with the slow subsidence of Feng Xiaogang's emotional scandal, his career and talent have also fallen to the altar step by step.
2016's "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" only grossed 480 million, 2017's "Fanghua" grossed only a quarter of wolf warriors, and in 2018, "If Yun Knew" only grossed 160 million...
Even Jia Ling, who crossed over as a director, the box office of a "Hello Li Huanying" can easily exceed the sum of all of Feng Xiaogang's films.
So Feng Xiao just began to tear up the audience, tear up idol stars, tear up Wanda.
There are so many garbage movies in China, not because we don't shoot well, but because there are too many garbage audiences;
"I Am Not Pan Jinlian" is not high at the box office, not because I did not shoot well, but because the Wanda scheduling rate is too low;
The Golden Horse Awards do not give Xu Fan an award because "Tangshan Earthquake" was filmed too well, "people hate you too late"!
Wanting the good reputation of a famous director and wanting a businessman's book of wanli, Feng Xiaogang's shrewd egoist's face is clearly revealed.
In 2018, Feng Xiaogang insisted on filming "Mobile Phone 2" and provoked the Yin-Yang contract incident, Fan Jiuyi was found to have evaded taxes and evaded taxes by 250 million yuan, and was sentenced to 884 million yuan, which completely pulled a generation of entertainment industry "goddesses" into the water.
In addition, his own bet with Huayi also failed, need to compensate Huayi 230 million yuan, in order to make money Feng Xiaogang, a straight male cancer terminal patient, conformed to the trend of the times, filmed a TV series that praised the big heroine, "North And South", but the final ratings were not good, and Douban opened a low score of 5.0.
And this drama is also satirized by the audience is not realistic, a housewife who complains all day long can earn 200,000 yuan by casually writing something, when she has been a group performance for 7 years, she can still live in a courtyard, and after 7 years of nothing in foreign countries, she will be flat on the clouds, and the extreme ungrounding nature of the characters in the play once caused the audience to complain.
I don't know if Feng Xiaogang lives in a large villa, the understanding of ordinary people is so shallow, but the stars who come to the cameo in the play are more than one big name, Song Dandan, Huang Bo, Zhang Shaogang, etc., but the script itself is not good, what is the use of more big coffee?
With the completion of this drama, the era belonging to Feng's films has gradually come to an end, after all, box office and ratings are the most important criteria for determining the quality of a work, if you simply pursue the exquisiteness of the film, it is better to go directly to the literary film.
If you want a good reputation and want a good box office, the final result can only be a bamboo basket to hit the water empty, people can not be too greedy.
In fact, Feng Xiaogang fell to this step of the field, there are really many reasons, but the most important thing is that I believe it is the end of that era, after all, the "Assembly Number", "Party A and Party B" and "Tangshan Earthquake" of that year are all classics, and now after Feng Xiaogang signed a bet, the level of the work can only fall all the way in the direction of money.
