Why is there no successor to the shanzhai version of Stephen Chow's new film Wulitou Comedy?

Stephen Chow has always been a very admirable Hong Kong star. When he first became famous, he had to be a tiger without classic lines and facing the camera directly. However, he despised difficulties, reversed step by step with overall strength, and finally became the "king of comedy movies". Naturally, Stephen Chow's works are also excellent. Although most of them are nonsense comedies, many movies still seem to be lingering classics in the hearts of the audience. It's a pity that Stephen Chow is getting older and older. At this stage, he has become a behind-the-scenes film director, so it's hard to see funny films starring him any more. Therefore, whether in Chinese mainland, China or Hongkong, people are gradually looking for Stephen Chow's successor, hoping that he can shine the nonsense comedy again.

He became popular in the entertainment circle by imitating Stephen Chow, often with Stephen Chow's high imitation. A famous actor named Zhang Shiyu is undoubtedly the most like the deity in many imitation shows. I was invited to participate in the video recording of the domestic variety show "China's Got Talent". On the variety show, he deliberately imitated Stephen Chow's dress and manners, which attracted many viewers' attention. Everyone shouted like Stephen Chow.

That's it. The unknown Zhang Shiyu became popular, and many film directors invited him to participate in film and television works, preparing him to lead the next Stephen Chow in advance. For this invitation, Zhang Shiyu mostly avoided talking about it, and now there are more than a dozen books performing. However, if you look through his resume, you will find that every book has Stephen Chow, but there is no Zhang Shiyu's own characteristics. He is not so much the next "Stephen Chow" as the "high imitation" of Stephen Chow.

But even so, Zhang Shiyu doesn't look unhappy at all. He starred in a movie, and the whole process was full of classic fragments of Stephen Chow movies. Zhang Shiyu's latest movie "The Whole Process of Cold Rice" The latest movie in Zhang Shiyu is called "The Fake President with a walk-on", and the star lineup is very luxurious. King-Tan Yuen, Yuan Qiu, Huang Yifei and Huang Yishan, who are well-known for Stephen Chow's films, all starred in this film. Many viewers were moved by this famous actor's name, which evoked fond memories of watching Stephen Chow's comedies when I was a child. As a result, they clicked on the film one after another, thinking that they would get endless laughter as in the past, but soon someone noticed that something was wrong.

This film tells the story of Zhang Xingxing, a part of the actor who was mixed in the shooting scene. He was always self-righteous, but he couldn't solve the fate of the extras. Until one day, a fake "CEO" found him in real life, which gave him the chance to become the protagonist, but in addition, he was involved in a short story of a dark war when he first entered the workplace.

After reading this detailed introduction, the audience will think of Yin Tianchou in king of comedy, and this film also uses a short story of a well-known walk-on actor to reproduce the classic fragments of Stephen Chow's films. The whole process is very embarrassing, selling complicated cold rice, without my own ideas and opinions. At this stage, the viewing volume of "The Fake President of a Walk-on" is very low, and users' comments on the movie box office are even more double-sprayed. It's hard to have a successor to a nonsense comedy. In fact, if the film can shoot the cute complex well, it will also get five-star praise from some viewers, but the film "The Fake President of a Walk-on" is not guaranteed.

The key reason is that the performance of the first hero, Zhang Shiyu, is really poor. Despite the help of Stephen Chow's special score, it still can't cover up his performance defects. Even though he has been assiduously imitating Stephen Chow's jokes and humor, there are some "overexertions" in the audience, and he is very devoted. It's still hard to copy the way Stephen Chow performs comedies. Zhang Shiyu's acting skills are no different. He can only imitate the fur, the essential talent and accumulation, which he can't completely imitate.

Stephen Chow's comedy without moral integrity is likely to disappear in Wulin, because it is difficult to accurately grasp this comedy, whether it is his imitation show or a famous actor who graduated from a technical school. Nonsense comedy, it may be difficult to have a successor. However, this is not a mistake. After all, there are many ways to perform comedies. Let a hundred flowers blossom, and the funny film sales market will be more colorful. Why should we limit ourselves to a kind of nonsense comedy?
