In the recent hit TV series "Hurricane", Zhang Yi and Zhang Songwen played the undercover policeman An Xin and the boss Gao Qiqiang respectively, and the rivalry between the two aroused strong attention and discussion among the audience. However, according to netizens, there is a deep contradiction between Zhang Yi and the crew of "Hurricane", which led him not only to refuse to promote the show, but even deleted the relevant Weibo content, trying to draw a line with the show. This incident has caused widespread controversy and speculation, what happened to Zhang Yi in the crew, and why did he break up with the crew?
Zhang Yi's strength and controversy.
Zhang Yi, formerly known as Zhang Xian, was born in Handan City, Hebei Province in 1973, graduated from the Performance Department of ** Drama Academy, and is a well-known powerful film and television actor in China. He has won many film and television awards for his excellent works such as "Langya Bang" and "The Dedication of Suspect X", and is deeply loved by the audience. In the entertainment industry, there is no shortage of scandals and gossip about Zhang Yi. There were rumors that he had an affair with a well-known actress, but neither party responded positively.
Zhang Yi's acting career has not been smooth sailing, he has experienced a low period, and he has also encountered doubts and criticism. He once said in an interview that he is not a natural actor, and he needs to keep learning Xi and working hard to play the role well. He also admitted that he has high requirements for himself and sometimes loses his temper because he is not satisfied with his performance, but he doesn't mean it, he doesn't play big, he just wants to do his job well.
The hit and controversy of "Hurricane".
"Hurricane" is directed by gold medal director Xu Jizhou, starring Zhang Yi, Zhang Songwen, Li Yitong, Zhang Zhijian, Wu Gang, etc. With the theme of sweeping away gangsters and eliminating evil, the play spans 20 years of group portrait narrative, showing a panoramic view of the black-and-white contest and complex human nature under the changes of the times. Since its launch on January 14, 2023, the show has received high ratings and high reputation, and has become a well-deserved hit drama.
However, as the plot deepened, some netizens found some flaws and controversies in the show. Some netizens pointed out that the script of the play is suspected of plagiarism, and some plots and lines are highly similar to previous film and television works, lacking innovation and originality. Some netizens found that on the notice sheet of the play, Zhang Yi's name appeared in the position of the art director, but at the beginning and end of the feature film, there was no word Zhang Yi as the art director, only the words of the leading actor. This makes people wonder if Zhang Yi's status and contribution to the crew have been ignored and neglected.
Zhang Yi's grievances and hatred with the crew.
According to netizens, the conflict between Zhang Yi and the crew of "Hurricane" stems from the role assignment between him and Zhang Songwen. Originally, Zhang Yi was set to play the *** boss Gao Qiqiang, while Zhang Songwen played the undercover policeman An Xin. But later, director Xu Jizhou was very satisfied with Zhang Songwen's performance, so he decided to let Zhang Songwen play Gao Qiqiang, while Zhang Yi could only play An Xin. This made Zhang Yi feel very dissatisfied, feeling that his role had been snatched away, and the status and importance of An Xin's role in the play were not as good as Gao Qiqiang.
In addition, Zhang Yi also encountered some unpleasant things in the crew. According to a person familiar with the matter, during the filming process, Zhang Yi repeatedly proposed revisions because he was not satisfied with the script, and even had a dispute with the director. He also once played a big name because he was dissatisfied with his role and camera, and refused to cooperate. He also abused stand-ins, arbitrarily modified his lines, and was suspected of looking down on TV series, thinking that he was a movie actor and disdaining to make TV series. These words and deeds disgusted the rest of the crew, who felt that he was very unprofessional and difficult to get along with.
Because of these reasons, Zhang Yi's popularity in the crew is very poor, and there is no communication and interaction with other actors. He was also reluctant to promote the show, and even deleted his previous Weibo content about the show, trying to draw a line with the show. This move sparked questions and criticism from netizens, who believed that he did not respect his work or the feelings of the audience, and was an actor with no professional ethics.
Zhang Yi's response and expectation.
Regarding the questions and criticisms of netizens, Zhang Yi himself and the crew did not give any response. This makes people even more confused and puzzled by his attitude and motivations. Why would he do it?Is he really dissatisfied with the show, or does he have other secrets?Is he trying to create a buzz and raise his popularity?Is he not confident in his performance and is afraid of being picked on by the audience and critics?
In any case, we hope that Zhang Yi can give a reasonable explanation, or at least express some apologies.
