Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang were once a pair of golden partners, the two cooperated in "People in the Road" and "Tai 囧" have won a good box office and word of mouth, but do not know why, the two suddenly parted ways, and then there is no cooperation, many netizens are also curious, what is the reason for such a big disagreement between the two? So much so that Xu Zheng said: When I was the most difficult, it was Wang Baoqiang who helped me, and now that the box office is high, I will not use him again!
The first cooperation between Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang was in Ye Weimin's "People in the Road", the response of this film was so good that Xu Zheng was a little red-eyed, so he directed and acted in the "Tai Lu" series of 囧途 series. Perhaps everyone does not know, this is the first film directed by Xu Zheng, and when he directed this play, he only had 30 million investment, this little money is not to mention making a movie, even the actor's remuneration is not enough, fortunately, Wang Baoqiang and Huang Bo are righteous enough, which contributed to this blockbuster with a box office of 1.2 billion.
At such a difficult time, it was Wang Baoqiang who helped him, but when filming "Hong Kong 囧", Xu Zheng replaced Wang Baoqiang with a similar style of Bao Bell. Many netizens are also very curious after seeing it, what happened to Wang Baoqiang and Xu Zheng? Is there really any contradiction? What is more interesting is that Wang Baoqiang did not star in "Hong Kong 囧", but instead participated in Chen Sicheng's "Detective Chinatown", and also said in the interview: Chen Sicheng knows himself better! This also makes everyone more suspicious of the relationship between the two.
The reason for the estrangement of the two has always been speculated on the Internet. I remember that the "Tai 囧" fire that year, even Huang Bo was divided into 50 million, and Wang Baoqiang was only two million, and then when Wang Baoqiang encountered a family change, Chen Sicheng took out 3 million yuan to help without saying a word, and Xu Zheng did not do anything, perhaps it was precisely because of these small things that the relationship between the two went farther and farther, and then Xu Zheng did not ask Wang Baoqiang to shoot a play, perhaps Wang Baoqiang was not willing to cooperate with him anymore.
However, for Xu Zheng, he did not want to ask Wang Baoqiang again. Because if you want to become a director with box office appeal, you must not rely too much on actors, if you have been giving everyone a feeling of "Xu Zheng can't leave Wang Baoqiang", then once there is no Wang Baoqiang, he can only cool down, and must let everyone feel that Xu Zheng himself can support the box office.
But for the audience, Xu Zheng's 囧途 series of movies seems to be really inseparable from Wang Baoqiang, the reputation of this movie can be seen, the Douban score of "Tai 囧" is 7.4 points, and the rating of the next two 囧途 movies is actually not even up to the passing line, and after missing Wang Baoqiang, the audience also feels that the movie is not so funny, even if there is Bao Bell, it seems that this type of comedy, Wang Baoqiang is indeed a box office guarantee.
