2023 is coming to an end, and after entering December, a new round of competition has begun in the film schedule competition, taking the lead in the "New Year's Day file" and welcoming 2024.
However, in the ** released at the end of this year, an interesting thing happened, netizens discovered: Why are there still those people in the first half of the year on the big screen!Especially this year's "model worker" Zhang Yi, from "Man Jianghong", "The Tip of the Knife" at the beginning of the year and "Priceless Treasure" later, at the end of the year, he appeared in the cinema with the fourth movie "The Three Teams".
I have to say that Zhang Yi has "exploded" this year for the whole year of 2023, not only has four movies been released within a year, but each of them has a very good reputation. At the same time, he also starred in three TV series, "Hurricane", "Huanyan", "Who is he", especially the New Year's drama "Hurricane" has also become a "hit drama" in 2023, which also pushed Zhang Yi to the altar of "Emperor Yi" and became the best model worker actor of the year.
Zhang Yi's "Three Teams" starring this time will be released on December 15, and judging from the current reputation of the show, it is quite a hit. However, compared with word-of-mouth, the subtle relationship between Zhang Yi and Chen Sicheng, the director of this play, has attracted everyone's attention.
Speaking of the relationship between Chen Sicheng and Zhang Yi, the two first collaborated in "Soldier Assault" in 2007. At that time, this drama became the annual drama of the year, and Xu Sanduo's slogan of "don't abandon, don't give up" resounded all over the streets. In addition to Wang Baoqiang as the starring role, the "Soldier Men's Gang" composed of Zhang Yi, Chen Sicheng, and Li Chen is also popular.
The relationship between the three is very good, and they are all budding newcomers in the entertainment industry, and it can be said that they all met in Weishi. Since acting in "Soldier Assault", Li Chen, Zhang Yi, and Chen Sicheng have also signed a contract with Huayi Brothers Agency, extending the "comradeship" in the play to outside the play and becoming real colleagues. At that time, there was also a ** evaluation of the relationship between the three people, and the good one was like a "conjoined baby".
In 2012, Chen Sicheng suddenly wanted to transform into a director, and even used the blog account of his brother Li Chen to start "Invincible", which is the predecessor of the script of "Beijing Love Story". Later, Chen Sicheng wanted to make this drama into a TV series, so he invited Li Chen and Zhang Yi to participate, and the two brothers were also very supportive of Chen Sicheng at that time, and even did not hesitate to reduce their salaries to star.
I thought I could see the continuation of the "comradeship" of "Soldier Assault", but I didn't expect it to become the fuse for the breakdown of the relationship between the three. At that time, this drama was created collectively before the filming, although Chen Sicheng was the director and screenwriter, but in fact, everyone contributed a lot of creativity to the plot of this play, and Li Chen also served as the producer and producer of the film, and the starring roles were of course Chen Sicheng, Zhang Yi, and Li Chen.
At that time, Chen Sicheng invited Yang Mi, Zhang Xinyi, and Tong Liya to lead the three leading actresses, but during the filming process, Chen Sicheng gradually fell in love with Tong Liya, and even in order to pursue Tong Liya, Chen Sicheng began to change the script of "Beijing Love Story". dismantled Zhang Yi and Tong Liya, who were originally a couple, and inserted himself into it, and cut the emotional line between him and Tong Liya into the main line of "Northern Love".
Not only that, in order to highlight his role, Chen Sicheng also changed the roles of Li Chen and Zhang Yi, one is a "spare tire" with a bit of silliness, and the other is a delicate self-interested "phoenix man". The roles were tampered with, a large number of scenes were deleted, and after the broadcast, Zhang Yi and Li Chen were not only reduced to supporting roles, but also played roles that were abused by netizens
Chen Sicheng's series of "riotous operations" also attracted the dissatisfaction of Zhang Yi and Li Chen, although the "Beijing Love Story" TV series exploded, but the brotherhood of the three also came to an end. Even in the later publicity, Zhang Yi and Li Chen no longer participated and refused to attend. At that time, the crew was on "Happy Camp", and only Chen Sicheng appeared as a leading actor, and finally it became embarrassing for him and Tong Liya's "Love Show" special.
Chen Sicheng's behavior of "forgetting friends when he sees sex" also makes Li Chen and Zhang Yi unbearable. Zhang Yi also publicly admitted that he didn't like the play "Northern Love", saying that the character he played was a very unreasonable person who was full of swearing. Zhang Yi said, "I have already revised the script under pressure during filming, but I still don't like this role." At the same time, Zhang Yi also said that he no longer contacted Chen Sicheng.
And Li Chen's side chose another way to fight back against Chen Sicheng, "Hidden Marriage Diary" starring him and "Children Are Hard to Raise" starring Chen Sicheng not only collided with the theme, but the two crews also chose to start shooting on the same day, which is quite a bit of a competition.
and Li Chen also admitted that the two had not been in touch for a long time in private, and reluctantly said: "Everyone has their own position, Chen Sicheng also has his own insistence, I can't say anything on behalf of others, and I don't want to say anything more about others." There was a lot of grievance and disappointment between the words.
In addition, the relationship between the "Soldier Gang" has not completely ended, Chen Sicheng later caught up with "Xu Sanduo" Wang Baoqiang, and even invited him to star in the movie "Detective Chinatown" series directed by himself.
And Li Chen is very close to Zhang Yi, in fact, compared to Chen Sicheng, Li Chen and Zhang Yi met earlier. As early as 2000, the two had cooperated in the movie "Criminal Police Zhang Yugui", and since then they have worked together intermittently 12 times.
When the two collaborated on the TV series "Goodfellas" for the eighth time, Li Chen also ridiculed that he and Zhang Yi had passed the "seven-year itch" and were now "friends of eight worships".
Of course, Zhang Yi is also very supportive of Li Chen, and he also wrote an article on "Zhihu" "Why is Li Chen's type of actor popular" to praise him. In the article, Zhang Yi said that Li Chen was a good person and very warm-hearted, and every time he had difficulties, the first thing he thought of was to ask Li Chen for help.
And Chen Sicheng and Zhang Yi and Li Chen are really drifting apart. And he offended the two brothers in order to chase Tong Liya at that time, but he didn't expect that after successfully marrying the "goddess", he still ended in divorce.
After Zhang Yi said goodbye to "Northern Love", he also began to try to transform into the big screen, and at this time, Chen Sicheng also chose the same direction to move to the film industry, but he chose to be a behind-the-scenes director. But the two still haven't had any cooperation, and even their respective ** even started a "ring match." ”
One year at the "Lunar New Year", the movie "Tang Detective 2" directed by Chen Sicheng met Zhang Yi starring in "Operation Red Sea", both movies had a good reputation, and finally one ended with 2.7 billion, and the other was 2.3 billion, and the box office results were very close, which shows how fierce the "battle" is.
Later, Zhang Yi was favored by the "National Teacher" Zhang Yimou, and starred in many movies such as "Cliff Supremacy" and "Man Jianghong", and became the head actor in the film industry.
And Chen Sicheng also became a director with a box office of more than 10 billion yuan with the "Tang Detective" series. The two have become representative figures in their respective circles, but the two did not blush after "meeting at the top", and even collaborated on the movie "Three Teams" together, and Chen Sicheng also invited Li Chen to return, which made many netizens speculate whether the three have reconciled?
If the three of them did have contradictions, but after so many years, perhaps the previous suspicions have long disappeared. Do you think the relationship between the "three sons of the soldier" can still be maintained?(Wen Yan small page, edited by YK).
