Recently, Tony Leung attended Busan International Film Festival in South Korea and also met with the director of "Squid Game". The two had a great chat, and netizens were looking forward to their cooperation.
Wife Carina Lau acted as a broker, publicity staff and spokesperson throughout the process, taking handsome photos of Tony Leung and socializing with him.
Since filming "Shangqi" in Hollywood , Tony Leung's development circle has become wider and wider, and even the Korean film industry has begun to dabble in.
Reviewing Tony Leung’s development over the years, it makes people sigh that he is much smarter than the Andy Lau , who is both enemies and friends.
The so-called "smart" can be understood as: shoot whatever you want.
In 2016, Tony Leung participated in " Ferryman ". Although the drama gathered a group of popular stars back then, the movie is like "frying a plate of hard to swallow with the most precious ingredients."
Even if there are Angelababy , Luhan , Eason Chan , Takeshi Kaneshiro , etc., it will not work.
In 2018, Tony Leung partnered with Wu Moumou and Tang Yan in " European Strategy ". At that time, the combination of actor + traffic became popular.
The video of the same period is Huang Bo + Zhang Yixing . In the end, " A Good Show " earned 1.3 billion box office, while "European Strategy" only had 153 million yuan. For a long time since then, Tony Leung did not film, and he almost equaled the "bad movie".
In 2020, he decided to star in "Shangqi", as if he wanted to regain his career confidence in using Marvel's name. Amid the surging discussion, Tony Leung became popular again.
2021, Tony Leung took on the role of " Unknown " by the genius director Cheng Er , and partnered with top Wang Yibo . Recently, they also filmed a magazine together to warm up the release of the movie.
In the past five years, Tony Leung has not been prolific, but it can be seen from his only few works that he is "chasing the trend".
looked through his agency and found that he had terminated his contract with his former boss long ago, and now all his career is in his own hands, while his wife Carina Lau plays the role of staff.
Reasonable speculation: Tony Leung’s career development in recent years and the people he meets with the show, Carina Lau is indispensable in making plans and controlling Tony Leung’s career direction.
In addition to being an actress, Carina Lau is also a businessman. Her investment career is quite successful. It is said that she owns multiple properties in the mainland and Hong Kong, and is truly an invisible rich woman. Businessmen seek profit, so they will naturally go wherever they have money and popularity.
As Tony Leung's "lifelong opponent", Andy Lau has had completely different developments from Tony Leung in recent years.
If Liang and Liu were once representatives of Hong Kong movies, now only Andy Lau is still sticking to Hong Kong movies.
In the past decade, due to the recession of the Hong Kong circle, Andy Lau has made many bad movies, but there are also many excellent works that can show the last glorious Hong Kong circle.
such as " Blind Detective ", " Bomb Disposal Expert ", " Dragon Chasing ", " Anti-Drug ", etc., especially the 2020 " Bomb Disposal Expert Middle School 2", " Drug Disposal ", etc., especially the box office of " Bomb Disposal Expert Middle School 2" successfully won 1.3 billion yuan, which means "the Hong Kong circle is not dead."
In Andy Lau's movies to be broadcast, they are basically Hong Kong movies, such as "Story", "Winning in the Wine", " Goldfinger ", etc. Among them, "Goldenfinger" is the second collaboration between Andy Lau and Tony Leung for more than 20 years.
Perhaps after going around, Tony Leung will find that the Hong Kong film industry is the most suitable soil for his career.
Of course, in addition to Andy Lau, there are also Louis Koo , Wang Jing and others who are also sticking to Hong Kong movies. The audience complained that Louis Koo had made too many bad movies, but as long as Louis Koo insisted on acting in the movies, the Hong Kong filmmakers had work and food to eat.
Louis Koo made money and would help the lower-level artists in the Hong Kong circle and use the money to do charity.This year, Louis Koo launched the mecha science fiction movie " Tomorrow War ", which he has been preparing for many years. The box office in the mainland has reached 670 million.
Louis Koo not only has perseverance, but also feelings.
Wang Jing knew that he had become a "bad movie maker", but he didn't agree. Although fast food movies are of low quality, Wang Jing can support hundreds of people every time he starts construction. Even if he can't make a good work, Wang Jing is still doing something for Hong Kong movies.
Of course, in comparison, it is not necessary to criticize Tony Leung. Although Tony Leung was born from Hong Kong movies, it does not mean that he will be bound to the Hong Kong circle for life.
It’s just that some people seem smart, but they stick to it stupidly; it’s just that some people seem cute, but they are actually smarter than everyone thinks. To emphasize again, this is not a criticism, it is just that everyone has different choices.
Tony Leung is 60 years old, but he has achieved "will do whatever he wants and not exceed the rules." No matter which choice, I hope they can bring more classic works!
