Whether you like or not Shen Teng , his influence is unquestionable.
personal works have a total of more than 25 billion box offices. Looking at the entire Chinese film industry, they are only below Wu Jing and . They are the veritable "leader" among the Middle Age actors.
But then again, the leader is too strong, and the shepherd will be afraid. Here, Happy Twist is the role of "Shepherd".
" Don't put all the eggs in the same basket". This is a classic and simple truth. Happy Twist is not unaware of this, but they are also helpless.
Trying to copy Shen Teng’s success again and again, but was slapped in the face by reality again and again, extinguishing the fantasy.
The comedy movies some time ago basically showed the dominance of "Happy Twist".
" Alone Moon " and "Hello, Brother" took turns to appear.
Although both movies were produced by Mahua, the box office results were very different.
gathers "Young Master" Chang Yuan , "No. 1 Sister" Ma Li and "Dark Horse" Wei Xiang 's "Hello, Brother", which won 460 million yuan in box office in more than 40 days of release. It is unknown how many "family votes" of Happy Twist are included.
In contrast, "The Locking Moon", which was led by Shen Teng, easily ranked in the eleventh championship with a box office of 3.1 billion, once again proved Shen Teng's well-deserved position as the "No. 1".
In recent years, Happy Twist has spared no effort to borrow Shen Teng's influence to promote his family, trying to create a second or even more Shen Teng. As netizens said, "Happy Twist really gives everyone a protagonist."
From Allen , Chang Yuan, to Huang Cailun , Wang Chengsi, Happy Twist wants to copy Shen Teng's glory again and again. Unfortunately, the selected substitute told Happy Twist again and again with facts, what is "dream".
Happy Twist and Shen Teng first broke the circle and began to make their mark, which can be traced back to the 2012 Spring Festival Gala.
That year, Shen Teng's " Hao Jian " emerged suddenly, and he became popular overnight with the happy twists behind him.
Then the 2014 Spring Festival Gala " Support " vaguely allowed Shen Teng to take over the banner of Zhao Benshan's comedy sketch.
But what really made Shen Teng and Happy Twist completely take off was the emergence of the popular movie " Charlotte Troubles ".
In the absence of publicity and support from big names, Happy Twist leveraged 1.4 billion box office with only 10 million yuan, becoming a well-deserved "dark horse".
The success of "Charlotte's Troubles" not only made Happy Twist one of the leaders of mainland comedy movies in a short period of time. The more successful thing about
is actually that it completely made Shen Teng famous, allowing Shen Teng to officially enter the circle of the big screen of the movie from the drama and sketch stage.
With his excellent funny ability and the endorsement of Happy Twist, Shen Teng has gradually become the front line of the comedy film market.
If you want to have a burden on the movie, you will be able to "smile" enough, and it is absolutely right to pull Shen Teng into the group.
" ace teasing ace ", " Yaoyao Ling ", " Lobster Detective "... Shen Teng's guest appearance is definitely a highlight in the movie.
In addition, with the blessing of "Happy Comedy" and "Ace vs. Ace", Shen Teng became a representative figure of mainland comedians.
Shen Teng is both a veteran and a hero to Happy Twist.
Of course, everyone understands the principle of "eggs cannot be placed in one basket", and Happy Twist is no exception.
Seeing that Shen Teng is getting more and more popular, adhering to the principle of "a part of the people will become popular first, lead first and then be popular", Happy Mahua began to take advantage of Shen Teng's "glory" and gradually brought other actors of Mahua to the forefront.
Therefore, whether from the perspective of promoting newcomers or from the perspective of using multiple points to weaken the dominance of the family, Happy Twist chooses a "stand-in" for Shen Teng, which is an inevitable trend.
Ideal is full, reality is skinny. I have to say that Happy Twist’s conception and decision are good, but practice brings true knowledge.
Just like a happy Twist actor participating in the "Happy Comedy" competition, one after another, and people keep going from assistant actors to starring actors, but no one has won the championship again.
"Shy Iron Fist " should be the first time Shen Teng made a supporting work in Mahua's works, and it is also the work of Mahua's supporter Alan before pushing the supporting role on stage.
Objectively speaking, Allen won a box office of 2.2 billion in the first time he starred in a movie. Such a result is great.
But after the movie has been performed, the most popular lines and emoticons are Shen Teng's words "Come here."
Even the movie's promotional poster, "supporting role" Shen Teng firmly ranks in the C position.
If you only talk about Allen's acting skills in "The Shameful Iron Fist", it is remarkable, especially after changing into a girl, his shyness did not make the audience feel pretentious and disgusted.
The movie itself has made Allen easily enter the ranks of first-tier box office celebrities.
But just like Shen Teng is still popular in "Shameful Iron Fist", how much box office can Allen himself bear if he eliminates the "content".
Especially after "Iron Fist", Allen inevitably entered the ranks of "bad movies" actors.
" Margaret's Spring ", box office 7.13 million, rating 2.7; "Human Comedy" 63.25 million votes, rating 3.3; " Dancing Elephant ", box office 39.15 million, rating still failed 5 points.
It is not difficult to find that the truth about these movies without "content" are self-evident.
It is true that Allen's own acting skills are still lacking. Under the escort of Shen Teng, Allen's role is sometimes stupid and sometimes stupid.
This is like the "smart" Shen Teng, the funny guy and supporting guy in crosstalk. Only by going back and forth can you achieve good results.
Furthermore, comedy really depends on talent. People like Shen Teng, Jia Ling , etc. are stations that don’t move, and they can make people happy. Obviously, Allen himself does not have this kind of funny talent.
Although Allen later not only collaborated on Jackie Chan , but also held the work of Stephen Chow " Mermaid 2".
But whether others like Alan or the reputation of Happy Twist behind him is worth discussing.
Seeing that Allen's road was not working, the box office reputation of the movie was both lost, so Mahua urgently pulled out veteran Shen Teng again and created Happy Mahua's box office masterpiece " Xihong City Richest Man ".
This movie that made a profit for profit has received a high box office of 2.5 billion, but its rating has also dropped to 6.6 points.
The happy twists at this time are like the early Huang Xiaoming . After just getting the results, you have to "reward" yourself a bad movie.
So, in the same year as "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was released, " Li Cha's Aunt ", which continued to use "replacement", appeared.
This time, after Allen, Happy Twist also launched another "newcomer", Huang Cailun, known as the "Prince of Drama".
From Shen Teng, Ma Li to Allen, a movie has become a group of creators, making Happy Twist a "Huangpu Camp" for comedians.
Happy Twist background and the theme of drama IP. Huang Cailun, who is unknown in the movie circle, became the C position of the hit.
plus Allen and Song Yang as a match, Shen Teng made a surprise guest appearance, and Lu Jingshan as the heroine in "Wolf Warrior 2", but "Li Cha's Aunt" still stumbled silently.
is Huang Cailun's comedy foundation really not good? Not all.
has experience in performing thousands of dramas. In the variety show " Chinese Comedy Star ", Huang Cailun won the championship.
In "Happy Comedy", the imaginative second-dimensional creative imagination impressed everyone.
In addition, Huang Allen has had a "shocking glance" in "Charlotte's Troubles" and "Shameful Iron Fist".
However, the essence of comedy is that it makes people laugh without being tired. However, after watching Huang Cailun's performance, they all come to a consensus: use too much force.
Although "Li Cha's Aunt" finally won 600 million yuan in box office, the audience is largely aiming at "Happy Twist".
, even Shen Teng, who only had a few minutes of shots, has little to do with the starring actor Huang Cailun. After
, Huang Cailun became more and more courageous, starring in the scolding " Hotel ". The inappropriate plot and broken reputation made Huang Cailun completely lose the trust of the audience.
It is also because of this movie that Happy Twist's reputation encountered an unprecedented crisis. Shen Teng, who played the guest role, turned out to be just a human-shaped card.
Such consumption behavior makes the audience feel that Shen Teng has almost become a "fast sales product" brought by capital.
Huang Cailun, who was considered unsuitable for comedy by netizens, was also abandoned by Mahua and hurriedly stepped down.
movies and main creators have frequently failed, which has made Mahua anxious. As his founder Liu Hongtao once said: "From the market environment, from the industry environment, from the microscope to itself, Happy Mahua often feels a lot of pressure."
How to break through has become a problem that Happy Mahua must face.
Once upon a time, Happy Twist = high-quality comedy; later, Shen Teng starred = hit comedy; now, Shen Teng starred = hit comedy = hit comedy.
From this we can see that Shen Teng’s status in Mahua, Mahua’s dependence on Shen Teng is far more than imagined.
After Allen and Huang Cailun failed one after another, Happy Twist was still moving forward bravely on the road of "copying Shen Teng".
And this time, they set their sights on Chang Yuan.
Chang Yuan, who came from a crosstalk family, was called the "young master", and his funny methods also happened to be reflected in "talking".
There are places that are often far away, and he will never let the bag fall to the ground. But "speak well" does not mean "showing well".
In 2017, after Chang Yuan led his team to participate in "Happy Comedy", his popularity soared, and Mahua also began to support him to become the male lead.
This time Mahua also learned to be smart, "only paying for people, not paying for money." Chang Yuan's first male lead work was the messy " Warm Hug HTML ".
Immediately afterwards, a movie "Li Mao Changes to Prince", a clichéd plot, excessive performance, and blindly playing with homophones, all made this movie a pile of large sketches and short videos.
Two movies have been slapping in the speed of light, making Chang Yuan a person who "everyone who is the master will be ruined" as netizens call.
In fact, it is the same as the image of "silly big guy" that is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Whether it is the designer of the Spring Festival Gala or the "Meng Tejiao" in "Charlotte's Troubles", Chang Yuan's "sissy" character is too profound and almost nailed him to the road of " special actor ".
Objectively speaking, as one of the pillars of Happy Twist, Chang Yuan was asked too much because Mahua urgently needed a second Shen Teng, so Allen Chang Yuan took turns to go.
, and Chang Yuan himself seems to be taking the "cold humor" route, with ideas and skills, but he lacks the ability to control the field as the main one.
The conclusion is cruel, but it is an indisputable fact.
When Allen, Huang Cailun and Chang Yuan were unable to make it out of the circle successfully, Mahua had to admit a reality: losing Shen Teng means losing the password for hot products.
Although Wei Xiang, who has been unknown later, became the person who can "threaten" Shen Teng's status with ", the killer, is not very calm ", Wei Xiang is no longer a happy mess.
Who else will be the next card of Happy Twist?
Is Wang Chengsi who became famous for his role as "Geng Huyuan" in the TV series " Son-in-law "?
Or Gao Haibao, who has a wonderful performance in the online drama " Dear, I didn't expect it to be "?
or is it the Kangaroo "Gangzi" Hao Han in "The Lonely Moon"?
The final result is still unknown, but one thing is known: on the road to copying Shen Teng, Happy Twist is unhappy.
Shen Teng has a line in "The Shameful Iron Fist": "After thirty years of separation, I am still as beautiful as a flower."
This sentence is like a summary of Shen Teng to Happy Turhua, and this is also a portrayal of Happy Turhua's "delusion".
