Best Boyfriend Evolution： Ryan, wake up!
Special feature of 1905 film network On Friday, the pre-sale of "Reunion 4" opened in the mainland, which quickly broke a record of 100 million yuan. On the same day, the five new films released in the cinema were quite miserable. The first day of filming was low, and the box office was only a few million, which basically belonged to a one-day tour.
The best boyfriend evolution has accumulated less than 10 million box office.
Xiao Dianjun paid special attention to one of the new domestic films — — . On the third day of the release, the ratings of Cat’s Eye and Douban have not been opened so far because of the insufficient number of evaluators. If you look closely at Douban reviews, 9 out of 10 scored 1 star, summing up the comments of netizens, in one word: "rotten".
This is the second film co-produced by Ryan and Yuqi Zhang. The last time was in 2017, Douban scored 2.9 points, which was lower than 3.5 points, and there were only a handful worse than it, such as and.
The Legend of the Demon is the lowest score of Douban since Ryan took over the film. Will The Evolution of Best Boyfriend hit a new low?
After Xiao Dianjun learned the behind-the-scenes details of the film production and release, he found that everything was not so simple.
The film was launched in the form of crowdfunding to recruit investment partners, with more than a dozen co-producers. It is said that the film investment and publicity budget reached 200 million.
In the discussion area of the Douban page, another netizen who claimed to be an investor posted that he wanted to withdraw his investment. He thought he had been cheated, but he couldn’t contact the film. Some people in the comment area below also commented that he was also an investor and was ready to defend his rights together.
The film was filmed as early as 16 years ago, and the director Wang Jing turned to be a producer and guest star this time. Yuqi Zhang is not the heroine, but Raquel is. That year, she just finished Jing Wong’s "Chasing the Dragon".
Although Yuqi Zhang didn’t directly play against Ryan in the film, she still appeared on the poster of the film as a "big woman".
The original name of the film was online celebrity body double in the Training Camp of the God of Men, and later it was renamed the Training Camp of the God of Men, and then changed to its current title. 16 years ago, he was stopped by the Film Bureau, demanding to rectify the indecent plot, dialogue, values and other issues. Before restarting the machine, he met a leading actor and asked for a higher pay, which was later resolved through the coordination of Jing Wong.
After the film was finished, it dragged on for three years, and it was only half a month before the film was released that it was suddenly announced. So far, neither Ryan nor Yuqi Zhang has released any information about the film. Wu Jianfeng, president of the producer Feifan Media, recently sent a screenshot of his WeChat with Ryan, accusing the other party of not cooperating with the film promotion.
Judging from these clues, Ryan and Yuqi Zhang don’t want to "admit" that they participated in this work at all. How bad is the film? Xiao Dianjun’s personal test on the day of release can be described as follows: The film’s impression is just like the film’s image of the heroine Raquel P on the ultimate poster as Angelababy, which is ridiculous and unbearable to look straight at.
The movie story setting is very old-fashioned. Fan Fan, played by Ryan, is a playboy. This is the nth time that he has played such roles as rich second generation and love master. Wan’er, played by Raquel, is his current girlfriend. She follows silently and pays sincerely, but because of her appearance, she is rejected.
As soon as the film started, Fan Fan had a dispute with his parents because of his chaotic personal life and was kicked out of the house. He started a love strategy school, and Fang Lishen, Lin Zicong, Chen Guokun and King Kong played his apprentices in single dog.
After several theoretical teaching and actual combat experiences, all four of them successfully found girlfriends, but Fan Fan fell into emotional problems when pursuing a girl named "Angela lady".
Finally, his father designed a game, and Fan Fan finally returned to his parents. He also changed his mind to her after the ugly duckling became a swan in Wan’er. In less than 90 minutes, the feature film probably tells these things.
The whole film is like Ryan’s intrusion into a Hong Kong comedy that was covered with vulgar clothes 30 years ago, and his position and values in defending "love rat" are extremely incorrect.A bunch of beautiful women from online celebrity joined in, and there were many plots that discriminated against women and fat people. Many nonsense comedy designs were left over from Stephen Chow’s previous play.
From the story and characters to the style and conception, there is no place to praise the film at all. In fact, there is no reason for Ryan to avoid publicity.
The girl pursued by Fan Fan in the film is called "Angela lady", and the time is transferred back to 14 years. "Run! Brothers is a domestic variety show hit, and the "cuckoo CP" composed of Ryan and Angelababy is also a whirlwind.
The film designed these edge balls for Ryan people and CP fever, and now it seems very outdated.
Many viewers don’t understand why Ryan always plays such glib, ostentatious urban men and rich second generation images.
In 2013, Ryan first came into contact with the big screen. Because of the appearance of youthful sunshine and his own trace of piqueness, he successfully won the opportunity to participate in "To Youth" and "Personal Customization".
Ryan in To Youth
In these two films, he plays the role of Xu Kaiyang, a rich boy who looks like a dude, actually dares to love and hate, and his heart is pure, and the other is Ma Qing, a mind anesthesiologist who loves to talk and has a lot of tricks. It is these two roles that laid the foundation for Ryan’s film characters in the next few years.
Ryan had professional performance training, experience on the stage of drama, solid lines and comedy rhythm of his own style. His performance and characterization were not a problem at that time.
Ryan’s "Private Custom" Stills
Since 2014, … he has gradually become a domestic gender.Professional households of comedies and romantic films are also denounced by many people as "professional households of rotten films".
Yu Fei, the "old driver in love" he created in the series "Former", is bohemian and single-minded, and his humorous style of painting is very suitable for him. "Former 2" was upgraded from male two to male one, and Yu Fei’s identity was changed to a big star, which was still romantic and ambiguous with beautiful women.
Ryan’s ability to be funny and juggling treasures is as good as many. Yu Fei of "Former 2" wore spongebob underwear for a while, and was photographed naked for a while. Yu Fei of "Former 3" frequently said, "I let you fly, and it hurts me."
However, for Zheng Kai, this kind of movies and characters really reached the top, and the audience was tired of watching them. As an actor, doesn’t he cherish feathers?
After 14 years of running men, Ryan became famous in the program. In addition to being a fast-running "little cheetah", the program also has the character of protecting flowers and boasting, which is deeply rooted in people’s hearts. The reality show is half true and half show, along with his big screen role, also follows this sex.
Ryan was also confused. He once wrote on his blog: "I thought youth and vitality were my signboard and capital, but I didn’t expect that one day it would also become an obstacle on my way forward."
Now his role dilemma is not only bound by the public image and classic people’s design, but also driven by the employers and interests in the film and television industry, as evidenced by The Evolution of Best Boyfriend.

In 2017, Ryan called himself "Mr. Almost" in a speech. He said that he had been crazy about taking plays before, and "the rhythm of four to five plays every year for ten years in a row was quantified", but now he began to tell himself, "Almost, why do you have to fight so hard?"
In his view, the spirit of "almost" is not not to work hard, but to learn to control, control the sense of proportion and rhythm. "I must first occupy the’ pit’ that I am good at, and then jump into other pits to try." He once said this in an interview.

When he met Zhang Yimou, Ryan was greeted by Bole, and Zhang Yimou praised him as "a man who is good at acting and works very hard". They cooperated for the first time, and Ryan played the civil servant around the emperor. There were not many scenes, but there was still a lot of excitement.
In 2016, Ryan starred in The Great Wall directed by Zhang Yimou.
Arrived, he subverted the previous image, challenged Pei Gong, the core figure, paid attention to his plays and tested his performance skills. Shadow brings Ryan another side as an actor. Many people find that Ryan is also a good actor after reading it.

Like many actors, after tasting the screen bonus brought by popularity and temporary image, he must face the problem of transformation and breakthrough.
Now that Ryan has started his new film project, he has also begun to intentionally "try to jump into other pits" and take part in movies. He has been the producer for the first time and starred in the TV series "Ordinary" with the theme of solving crimes by police and bandits.
Ryan also has a "Next: Former" which will be released in May 1st.
However, after the comeback harvest of "Best Boyfriend Evolution", another similar film will be released on May 1st — — . Don’t think it’s Ex-4, which was finished in 2015. Originally named Time Difference, Ryan also changed from a guest star to a propaganda star.
When will the "ex-feelings" be consumed? How far does Zheng Kai, the prodigal son in love, want to play? He still has to pay for his choices one by one.
