In Stephen Chow's movie "The King of Comedy", there is a bridge that I still remember.
In the second half of the movie, Wan Tianqiu was finally recognized by Juan, and it seemed that there was finally a light at the end of the tunnel.
But then, Stephen Chow made a dramatic turn:
When Yin Tianqiu came to the negotiation room with a full understanding of his role, he was told by Juan before he could even speak a word:
Your role was taken by your "big brother".
Why did Stephen Chow design such a plot in his autobiographical movie?
The reason is that Stephen Chow, who has been on the set for many years, understands that "being replaced" is a devastating and disempowering experience for an actor, and he makes it clear that:
Compared to never having been given a role, being robbed of an opportunity that you were about to get, or that you had already been holding in your hands, is a real pain in the ass. The pain is so great that it's hard to get over it.
But "being replaced" is not an uncommon thing in the entertainment circle, as Stephen Chow said, every time this kind of thing happens, it will cause great harm to the person concerned, and some people can't even get rid of the stigma to this day.
Below, we will review a few typical entertainment circle "being replaced".
A, Sha Yi:
Nie Yuan even two caps
Mention of the Northeast big brother Sha Yi, immediately came to mind a few key words -
The first time I saw the Northeast big brother, I saw the Northeast big brother, I saw the Northeast big brother, I saw the Northeast big brother, I saw the Northeast big brother.
Of course, no matter what the keywords, around the Shayi most or his body comes with a sense of comedy and spontaneity, was flirting with not humble, was flattered when humble and courteous, thanks to Shayi's character, so that whether he is in the variety show or in the screen are loved by the audience, can be said to be the model of the variety show works of the two blossom.
But early Shayi, and not so good, for example, was robbed of the role of this thing, he suffered a series of 2 times, but also with a person robbed - Nie Yuan.
Back then, graduated from the People's Liberation Army Academy of Art, Sha Yi, just as Shen Teng said the military art school, as fresh and handsome, bright and energetic.
In 2000, in order to ward off the invasion of Korean dramas, director Zhang Zi'en set out to prepare for the production of Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair.
The female lead was first set to be Huang Yi, and the male lead was Sha Yi.
After the notice was issued, the director also swore to Sha Yi to explain the task, saying that the male lead is a sick man, you need to be in shape to cooperate, weight loss!
Listening to this, Shayi started his weight loss program without stopping, and was looking forward to the start of the show.
However, after losing 20 pounds, Sha Yi suddenly received a phone call from the director, saying that his role has changed, from a weak boy "Qi Tian Lei", into a strong general "Sha Ping Wei".
Shayi asked the director, "I've lost weight, how do I act?"
The director only replied, "Hurry up and eat!"
Weight loss white toss not to mention, the main thing is from Qi Tianlei to Sha Pingwei.
Sha Yi's role from one down to four, a starring role hard to be changed into a dragon set.
And who was the main character changed to?
Nie Yuan.
According to the information provided, when Huang Yi and Nie Yuan were in love.
Because he was the first female lead, Huang Yi idly showed the director Nie Yuan's photo, and arranged for her boyfriend to come to the audition.
In this way, close to the water, Shayi was unknowingly drilled by Nie Yuan in the back door.
Of course, after learning that the protagonist was robbed Shayi did not get annoyed, and peacefully cooperation will be carried out, but finally Nieyuan and Huang Yi from the sky, and should have gotten this opportunity Shayi, but has been waiting until the "Wulin Outlaws" only out of the gate.
I didn't realize that after becoming famous, when ShaYi met NieYuan, he was given a hat trick by this buddy.
In 2008, Gao Xixi shooting "New Three Kingdoms", because it is a challenge to the classic masterpieces and a huge investment, the news once issued on the national attention, and casting is the most important.
Chen Jianbin's Cao Cao, Lu Yi's Zhu Geliang, Chen Hao's Diao Cicada, every new casting release has caused extensive debate.
Until Shayi, the nation made a mistake - he played Zhao Zilong!
Yes, that's right, in the early casting period of "New Three Kingdoms", Shayi overpowered Deng Chao and Xin Boqing to become the Zhao Zilong actor handpicked by Gao Xixi.
At that time, because the image of Bai Zhan Tang was too y rooted in people's hearts, people were afraid that Shayi would not be able to take on such a courageous role, but Shayi was unmoved, and even wanted to challenge Hu Jun, and let out a bold statement to the gossips:
" Some people don't believe that I can play it well, and I'm backing off, then it's still Shayi? "
In order to complete the role, Shayi and in the director's request for physical management, set the weight loss of 30 pounds of the plan, and practicing horsemanship also put their own tan.
Unexpectedly, when Shayi weight loss process over half, just reached 20 pounds of this node -
Nie Yuan came again.
In September 2008, when people almost forgot that Sha Yi was going to play the role of Zhao Zilong, the New Three Kingdoms crew suddenly released the news:
Nie Yuan replaced Sha Yi, playing the new version of Zhao Zilong!
From 2000 to steal the lead role in 08 to steal Zhao Zilong, Shayi two heavyweight roles have been temporarily replaced, each time, also carried out a lot of body shaping, and finally still can not do anything.
How much did this hurt Shayi?
He said that when he saw "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair" on TV, he would change the channel and wouldn't watch it.
Years later, "Ace vs. Ace" was a reminiscence of the cast, including Huang Yi, Nie Yuan and other stars were present, but only Shayi was absent.
However, the naturally optimistic Shayi did not stumble, but to mix the mindset of life gains and losses, and ultimately rely on the laughter and anger to win a applause, and today's fame has long surpassed those people.
Two, Nieyuan:
By the yellow godfather bends the road
The so-called "snatcher" is always snatched by the people, Nieyuan snatched Zhao Zilong before, in fact, has tasted the "loss of love". "The first time I saw this, I had to go to the hospital.
In 2004, Zhang Jizhong, who is planning to shoot a new version of the "Divine Eagle Warrior Couple", had two strong candidates during the casting of the male lead, Yang Zhuo.
One was Huang Xiaoming and the other was Nie Yuan.
In 2003, there was a media review of the mainland's "new four boys", namely Huang Xiaoming, Nie Yuan, Tong Dawei and Yin Xiaotian.
And the role of the Yang Zhuo attracted two of the most popular students competing, the intensity of the battle can be seen.
From the beginning of the casting process to the finalization of a **** after a long period of more than two months, Nie Yuan and Huang Xiaoming have made great efforts.
According to rumors, Nie Yuan in order to look good on camera for facial fine-tuning, huge cheeks obviously smaller, but also in order to close to the water tower, to pre-empt the signing of the "Divine Eagle Couple" investor "China Federation of Literature and Audiovisual Publishing House", staged a sell-out scene.
During the fight, the media circle suddenly rumors that "Huang Xiaoming is too melancholy, and Nie Yuan more sunny" wind comment.
Huang simply disregarded the image, many times with the media, and said that the game "too many insiders", and finally by the media play called "too excited.
The two of them went back and forth in a fierce battle for more than two months.
The final result was that Zhang Jizhong decided on Huang Xiaoming by a single vote, while Nie Yuan, who had a lot of trouble on the other side, withdrew from the battle for Yang Zhiqiao for the reason that he was not in a good position to start filming The Hundredth Bride.
He said bluntly that he would lose because he "can't play with other people's wrists".
And miss Yang also become the pain of his life, because to date there has been no youthful vigor, and then someone looking for him to play Yang, but also can not play the spirit of the year.
The mistake was made once, and it was for life.
Three, Shao Bing:
By Zhang Jizhong kicked out of the crew, the achievement of Li Yapeng
Peak found that, on the "change of roles" thing, in the body of the bearded really not much.
However, it is worth mentioning that although Nie Yuan was replaced, but the relationship with Zhang Jizhong did not get stiff.
When the "Divine Eagle Warrior Couple" aired, Zhang Jizhong had also looked for Nie Yuan to talk about, praised him "playing Yang late warrior feeling is certainly stronger than Huang Xiaoming", but Nie Yuan immediately disliked a sentence:
Don't come to me after the horse cannon, useless.
It can be seen that although the two did not work together, but the relationship is still at least the degree of joking and joking.
On the other hand, Shao Bing, on the other side, the situation is not so good.
In 1999, Jin Yong sold the rights to "The Smiling Proud Wanderer" to CCTV for a dollar, and the movie and TV work was immediately put on the agenda, and the person who did it was Zhang Jizhong, who rose to fame with "The Water Margin".
At the time, Zhang Jizhong had a candidate in mind for "Linghu Chong", plus Huang Jianzhong's recommendation, and soon finalized Shao Bing.
At that time, many people were not optimistic about Shao Bing, because his lines were too hard, and could not interpret the spontaneity of Linghu Chong.
As a result, Shao Bing disliked the audience:
Act to show you!
I didn't realize that before it was Shao Bing's turn to prove himself, he was kicked out of the theater by Zhang Jizhong.
The reason for this is that the relationship between the two sides on the set is not cordial, perhaps Shao Bing is too eager to prove themselves, and everywhere with the director of the group disagrees, Zhang Jizhong later in the "Walking in the river and lake" also wrote about this matter:
Later, Shao Bing really rolled up the cover and left, the pre-publicity of the overwhelming flow of water, and the honor of the fox on the Li Yapeng in a confused way.
"The Pride of Wanderlust" on the line, Li Yapeng straight to the clouds, despite the "not as good as Shao Bing" comments, but he is still close to eating a lifetime of the role of the dividends.
On the other hand, Shao Bing, after the loss of Linghu Chong depressed, and since then disappeared.
And, Zhang Jizhong's relationship with Shao Bing has never been iced out, so much so that Zhang Jizhong rehashed the incident when he participated in the "Venus Show", and was still furious, cursing at the camera:
I can't wait to slap him with a big earful!
Then later in 2019, the two met in the "I am the actor of the peak of the show" variety show.
Zhang Jizhong completely disregarded and the big picture, is still with Shao Bing did not have any exchange, and even take turns to comment on the stage after the actors, only skipped Shao Bing, the embarrassing atmosphere spread all over the scene.
From this, we can see that Zhang Jizhong really doesn't want to pay attention to him, and has never thought of shaking hands with him.
Four, Yang Mi
I blame myself for not being strong enough
Coincidentally, Yang Mi also has a relationship with Zhang Jizhong.
Back then, Mr. Huang beat Nie Yuan to start filming "The Divine Eagles", and the fledgling Yang Mi also played a pivotal role, Guo Xiang.
After playing Guo Xiang, Yang Mi once said he had a period of floating time, that his size is a character, but soon suffered a backlash.
A few years of not playing a normal role, but also at the top was set up.
Around 2010 the spy theme was prevalent, and the "wind" is held up as a standard work, two years later Tony Leung partner Zhou Xun to shoot again "The Wind Listener", the news of which attracted the attention of the whole country.
This is a resource that is coveted by everyone, but anyone who can get a foot in the door can be handled three fat, and Yang Mi quickly won the favor of the film makers, and got a role second only to Zhou Xun.
But soon, with the opening day approaching, the studio issued a new message:
Yang Mi retired from the group, the original role replaced by Fan Xiaoxuan.
For being replaced, Yang Mi's response was to stabilize the fans' emotions first, saying that the future will be accounted for.
Of course, this explanation is still late in the future, but Yang Mi has talked about being replaced in many of the interviews she has participated in since then.
She said the studio pushed her away because they chose "profit".
And Yang Mi didn't know she'd been cast once before.
There was also a TV series that had long been finalized with Yang Mi in the lead role, and Yang Mi and others also appeared in the movie launch.
Waiting for the official opening, Yang Mi but no trace, until Yang Mi's father told the truth:
The money is playing, but the temporary notice of the roll cover to go.
Now in retrospect, Yang Mi lost "The Wind Listener" is indeed quite a pity, after all, there can be such a work appeared, perhaps it can try to transform into a power curry.
However, Yang Mi did not feel sorry for himself, but to see the reality, the repeated casting of the encounter attributed to "their own not strong enough".
This kind of strong personality also makes Yang Mi become a small strong, in the circle of all the city of Enjia Yi, a girl froze will be living in the stone cracks of the rosebuds.
Five, Huang Xuan
Talking about the "Golden Armor" I heart "thump"
Now Huang Xuan
These are the most important things in the world.
Now Huang Xuan is almost like a dominant presence on the screen.
The size of the screen in all directions, both the movie and TV series achievements are worthy of recognition.
But back then, Huang Xuan suffered a lot of pain in the circle.
Huang Xuan grew up in a single-parent family, grew up in his mother's complaints, his own personality is a bit depressed, the university examined the North three times failed three times, and finally only committed to the dance department.
In 2006, Zhang Yimou wanted to shoot a costume version of "Thunderstorm", and began to plan the filming of "The City is Full of Gold".
And the role of the little prince in a few rounds of auditions actually spent on the shoulders of Huang Xuan.
Zhang Yimou! Master of the State!
Before he graduated, he was able to act in Zhang Yimou's play, and Huang Xuan couldn't help but feel happy at the thought of it, and did his homework for the role.
But the plan is not as good as the change.
As Zhang Weiping changed the second prince to Jay Chou out of concern for making money, the young prince's age had to be distanced from Jay Chou's, changed from the original 19 to 14.
Immediately afterward, Huang Xuan, whose heart is still in a frenzy, received a phone call and was told that his role was yellow.
The original belonged to his own little prince, changed to the then only 14-year-old Qin Junjie.
More murderous is that the play greened into the stage of promotion, the premiere of the need for backup dancers.
The crew went to Huang Xuan's school and found him again.
Huang Xuan, of course, was reluctant.
Then Zhang Yimou shook Huang Xuan's arms and said, "You have to go, you have to face this hurdle.
In the end, Huang Xuan had to wear the eunuch's costume, singing and dancing at the premiere of what should be his own work, with no one to talk to about his feelings.
Later, Huang Xuan even had a resistance mentality, once he saw the three words "Golden Armor", he could not help but "thump", and quickly fled.
And Huang Xuan and "was replaced" this matter is not limited to this.
In 2009, Huang Xuan into the group "sunshine Chongqing", the investor felt that Huang Xuan fame is not enough, despite the director of the repeated retention, or to give him a change.
In the same year, Lou Ye's "Spring Breeze Drunken Night" boot, Huang Xuan alone acted a line, the movie was selected for Cannes, when Huang Xuan miss home waiting for a phone call to prepare to go to Cannes, but was told that their line was cut, the entire 40-minute play is only left with a backdrop.
In 2010, Huang Xuan joined the group "Ocean Paradise", in order to play the number of autistic patients, he deliberately ran to the Beijing autistic patients school, and they ate and lived with the experience of life, and finally was told:
Your role was played by the article.
In the same year, "A Dream of New Red Mansions" was launched, Huang Xuan all the way through, the original male lead Jia Baoyu, but in the end, it was changed to Xue Tad in confusion.
Plus "Golden Armor", Huang Xuan can be said to have been released five times in just a few years.
In terms of the entertainment industry, there is nothing more tragic than this.
Six, Ke Zhendong
Missed the "Demon Hunter" to blame, after the cool is still not forgotten
The first few were replaced by actors, some because of the fame is not big, and some because of the concept of incompatibility.
Finally, a deserving one.
In 2011, a "those years, we chased together the girl" came out of nowhere, rely on a movie actually brought fire to an ecological chain.
The author of nine knives fire, the theme song singer Hu Xia fire, Taiwan's refreshing love film fire, and even the three words "those years" have become people's mantra.
Of course, the biggest beneficiary has to be Ko Chun-tung.
How hot was Ko?
After the movie broke out, the capital came in immediately and brought him to the mainland.
At that time, the Returning Four were still singing and dancing, and Li Yifeng and Chen Weiting had not yet made a fortune.
The only person in the entire market who can fight against the Korean wave is Ko Zhendong.
Ko can get 20+ endorsements a year, and all of them are first-tier big brands, music, film and television, but also single-handedly lifted out of Guo Jingming's bad movie universe "Small Times" series.
It is said that the word "fresh meat" was created for Ko.
But if you want someone to die, you have to make them mad.
Just as Ko was bulldozing his way through resources, on August 14, 2014, shortly after the release of the third installment of "Small Times," Ko and Fann Wong were arrested by police for D-smoking.
China's zero-tolerance treatment of D-sucking artists, Ko Zhendong's soaring life has since pressed the pause button, leaving fans the last works, just a picture of repentance and crying.
But Ko was arrested, and the movie he was working on at the same time suffered.
It's okay for "Small Time", but it's a big deal, because it's a bad movie anyway.
My Love Interest is Superman was simply shelved until 2020.
But the other "Demon Hunter" made a mistake, after all, the investment is huge, just special effects shots have more than 600, from 2011 to prepare, until 2014 to finish shooting.
Ko Zhendong accident, just before all the scenes just killed.
There is no way, the money has been invested in, as the producer of Anle Pictures, the old president of Jiang Zhiqiang not hesitate to smash pots and pans, through the sale of family assets and then invested another 70 million, the investment in the film was once pulled up to 350 million.
Change the protagonist! Remake!
In the end, "Demon Hunter" is almost the entire remake again, and the protagonist also changed from Ko Zhendong to Jing Bo然.
And the excellent quality of the movie was not affected by the Ko Chun-tung fiasco.
After the movie was released, the movie even won 2.436 billion, taking the 2015 box office champion, the second part even attracted the movie star Tony Leung to join, once again hit 2.436 billion box office myth, becoming one of the most valuable ip in the history of the movie.
On the contrary, Ko Zhendong, after the accident, gray fled back to his hometown to mix the circle, and from time to time rely on the Taiwan media to test the water, but immediately drowned in netizens' saliva.
For the regret of missing the "Demon Hunter", he is more directly now face -
In the personal resume, Ke Zhendong even boldly wrote "Demon Hunter" former male lead "
In the personal resume, Ke Zhendong even boldly wrote "Demon Hunter" former male lead "
Unfortunately, you can't rub it in any more than that, and the glory of Demon Hunter won't be shared with you.
What's left for you is only the "grounded" acreage.
In fact, this is a common occurrence in the movie industry.
Or from the capital coercion, or from the actor reasons, the plan can not catch up with the change, the only constant is the change itself.
But whether it is replaced or replaced, we have to keep a good mindset, winners are not arrogant, losers are not humble.
For example, this article has said a few plays, despite all the difficulties, but in the end the quality presented can stand up to the audience, and the actors in the aftermath of the changes suffered to have a strong heart like Sha Yi, Yang Mi, Huang Xuan and others.
The harder the ball is hit, the higher it bounces, to ensure that there is capital in the next competition will not be replaced, as is the case in any industry.
Of course, Ko can't do that.
-- End of story.
