What do you think of Xingye's "The New King of Comedy"?

I think it’s very good.

"The New King of Comedy" is a comedy film directed by Stephen Chow. The film tells the story of Ru Meng, an older young woman from a small town who has been a bit player for more than ten years and strives to pursue her dream of becoming an actress.

The story of "The New King of Comedy" is very simple, it is a dream of a walk-on star. Neither. It should be said that a girl dreams of being an actress. In fact, it is a story about a person who perseveres and fights for his dream. The story repeatedly emphasizes hard work, luck, fate, and success. What looks like a bowl of chicken soup is actually just a bowl of chicken soup. But chicken soup is okay to drink. Don’t be led astray by the evil ways of those ignorant and shameless self-media people. Who says chicken soup is bad? Life is inherently meaningless, and no matter how powerful a person is, he will eventually be wiped out. So why don't you fight for your love and ideals while you are still alive? You think it’s right to accept your fate and take things easy, so why should you blame and ridicule others for persisting and working hard? Even if they fail repeatedly, it is none of your business.

Some people criticized "The New King of Comedy" for being "sentimental", "frivolous" and "not funny enough". But now, what kind of movie can satisfy every audience's requirements? Star spent three years conceiving this movie and concentrated on shooting a film without special effects in two months. In order to ensure that "The New King of Comedy" can meet Stephen Chow's requirements, many scenes have to be constantly reshot and re-acted. Stephen Chow personally demonstrated and guided each character's expressions and movements. Wang Baoqiang, the male protagonist in the film, admitted that he had experienced the most reshoots in his career. In the past, there were only a dozen reshoots at most. During the filming of "The New King of Comedy", he once shot more than 50 retakes.

Some people say that Stephen Chow's "The New King of Comedy" is just selling feelings, but in fact, this movie still contains all kinds of sadness in life, which is in line with Xingye's usual style of work. It probably only has his heart. Go watch it, only those who understand Xingye will understand the meaning of this movie.
