The "Dragon Troupe" revealed the inside story of the casting selection, and E Jingwen was named the "most beaten" heroine

Since the official announcement, there has been a lot of curiosity about "The King of New Comedy", among which the most concerning is Xing Ye’s choice of actors. At this press conference, the lead actor made his first full lineup appearance, and the story behind the casting selection was exposed. The female lead, E Jingwen, played Rumeng, an elderly young woman who was a walk-on. She said that she had similar experiences both in and out of the play. She joked that she was selected by Xing Ye because she "carried the beating". It was revealed that she was determined to "hold on no matter what" before entering the group. Who knew that Rumeng was often bullied and beaten during the walk-on in the film, and the longest was even "beaten for two days in a row". She joked: "The beating has broadened the scene", which can be called the "most beating" female lead.

In the film, Zhang Quandan plays Rumeng’s boyfriend Charlie, who claims that he has the temperament of a "gentle trap", and that "extra gentle and special trap is mysterious" is even more appetizing to the audience.

Jing Ruyang, who plays Rumeng’s best friend Xiaomi, bluntly said that his legs were shaking when he first saw Xing Ye.

One of the screenwriters of the film, Huang Xiaopeng, was also selected by the director to play an important role. In the play, he silently guarded the dream, which can be said to be a double guarantee for the screenwriter. Cai Zerui, who played the director of the play, said that he was selected by the director because he was a "literary youth".

And Miao Yilun, who plays a well-known director, spoiled the scene with "forever is from now until the destruction of the universe, you will not succeed" and hit Rumeng hard, and apologized at the scene "I regret it", encouraging everyone "Don’t listen to what the self-righteous people say, dreams and the future must be fought back with your own hands".

When it was the turn of Zhou Yunshu, who played Wang Baoqiang’s assistant, to introduce her, she showed off her "repeater" characteristics on the spot, and touted Wang Baoqiang in the audience, showing professionalism and adding bursts of laughter to the warm scene.

Compared with the newcomers, veteran actors Zhang Qi and Yuan Xingzhe play the heroine’s parents in the film. The two praised the experience of working with Chow Xingchi: "He really wants everyone to be the best." "Working with Xingye has a kind of spiritual oxygenation." The relationship between the heroine Rumeng and her parents in the film is very touching, and the actor Zhang Qi also said: "I hope parents in the world can understand their children."

"I was very touched," Mr. Chow said of the real reasons for choosing the actors. "When I was filming, I could feel their enthusiasm. When I saw them after so long, I saw that they were still as enthusiastic, and I was very touched." He said: "Each of us is Yin Tianchou, and we are all working hard for our dreams, and I am also working hard for my dreams." He also hopes that "The King of New Comedy" will give more strength to the hard-working people in the new year, "I hope the audience will be more confident and work harder after watching the movie."

　

Zhou Xingchi’s early audition clips were exposed, and the live funny comments considered themselves "the best actor"

In the video, the young Andy Lau and Tony Leung’s audition clips were also displayed together, instantly triggering a wave of "memory killing". Xing Ye watched the performance of the three people with a smile. When the host asked who was the best actor, he replied with a smile: "Me." Then he solemnly expressed his enthusiasm for acting from his former self and friends, and found that he still had a fire on his body. Speaking of the line of "looking for a princess" back then, Xing Ye laughed that this should be a hint that he was looking for Wang Baoqiang, so he searched for 30 or 40 years before finally finding Wang Baoqiang who played "Snow White".

"The New King of Comedy" is a movie full of "little people". In the Spring Festival when big stars and big productions gather, many people break a cold sweat for it. In this regard, Zhou Xingchi bluntly stated that the result is not important, what is important is to convey emotion and temperature: "My purpose is always to make the audience like it, and I hope that in this work, the audience can find themselves and find hope."

　

Zhou Xingchi Wang Baoqiang confronted the outside world and questioned "Liu Piaopiao" and blessed "Yin Tianchou" in the air.

At the press conference, Zhou Xingchi and Wang Baoqiang responded to two sharp doubts and faced them head-on.

Zhou Xingchi responded humorously: "I have fried Yangzhou fried rice, but I really have never fried cold rice."

Regarding Wang Baoqiang’s question of "what else can you do besides being stupid", Lord Xing smiled and said, "In fact, I also really want to know what else he can do, so I found Baoqiang, but I didn’t expect him to be able to play Snow White." Wang Baoqiang expressed his gratitude to netizens: "Thank you all for motivating me in various ways, which has strengthened my determination to continue to work hard."

The scene also prepared a special surprise for Xingye on the same day – Cecilia Cheung, who played "Liu Piao Piao Piao" in "King of Comedy" 20 years ago, sent blessings to "Yin Tianchou" through the VCR, and ridiculed him "back then that he said he would only raise me, but now he raises so many people". This scene of air dialogue caused bursts of exclamations on the scene.

I believe that after watching the movie, everyone will feel that Star Lord’s comedy has always made you laugh and cry, and will be inspired and deeply moved." 20 years ago, the time and space connection, the strong human touch touched the warm audience.
