Luo Yonghao, a legendary figure, is covered with various labels, such as China's first-generation Internet celebrity, New Oriental English teacher, a public knowledge who is good at intimidating people, an entrepreneur who vowed to buy Apple, and Douyin's number one sales anchor. But what you may not know is that he is also a director, screenwriter, and even an actor. In 2011, he wrote and directed "Happy 59 cm Pony" and made a cameo role himself.
In one of the clips, Lao Luo bought coffee at Starbucks, and the waiter named the three cups of small, medium, and large as medium, large, and extra-large cups respectively. Lao Luo chose the middle cup and said that he wanted a medium cup, but the waiter told him that it was a large cup, and the one next to it was a medium cup. Lao Luo looked confused and insisted that he wanted to win the cup. Despite the waiter's repeated explanations, Lao Luo still couldn't accept it, and finally slapped himself in the face in pain.
After the release of this film, this clip became one of the most popular episodes. The picture of Lao Luo slapping his face was even made into an emoji and widely circulated. The reason why this clip is so popular is not only because of Lao Luo's Internet celebrity effect, but also because of the way the plot is handled. Faced with an ironic scene, the protagonist chooses to slap himself in the face in response, and this unexpected comedic effect makes people laugh.
and Ge You's performance in the 1992 sitcom "I Love My Home", which is also fresh in people's memories. As soon as this drama was broadcast, it swept the country, and the most hilarious of them was undoubtedly the episode in which Ge You made a cameo. It is said that at that time, as soon as the audience saw Ge You appear, they would laugh out loud collectively, and even the camera was difficult to control. This forced Ge You to beg the audience for mercy, begging them to hold back their laughter and let him finish the performance.
Many years later, the creators of "I Love My Home" reunited, and the photographer ** took a high-definition picture of Ge You**. This still, known as "Life Without Love", once again attracted people's attention, and "I Love My Home" became popular again. Some people even made this still into an emoji of "Ge You paralysis", which was widely circulated. I have to say that Uncle Ge's acting skills are really breathtaking, and the role of more than 20 years ago is still unforgettable.
Finally, there is the article and Lee Sang-jeong's wonderful performance in "The Mermaid". Their roles in the film are charismatic and leave a lasting impression on the audience. However, due to space limitations, the specific plot will not be repeated. The most hilarious part of "The Mermaid" is undoubtedly the part where Deng Chao went to the police station to report the case. The jokes of this episode are cleverly divided into three levels. First of all, the soul painter Lee Sang-jeong's superb painting skills are amazing, and he depicts mermaids in a strange way with nonsensical imagination, which makes people laugh. These paintings show several seemingly bizarre but stunning works, which fully demonstrate the screenwriter's sense of humor.
Secondly, when the article and Li Shang were listening to Deng Chao's case, it was clear that Deng Chao was seriously reporting the case, but they listened to it as a joke. This attitude of "I don't believe you, but you're a celebrity, so I have to give you face" made the audience laugh. This plot relies entirely on the actors' body language and facial expressions to show the laughter, which is quite a test of the actors' acting skills. In the end, after Deng Chao left, the two laughed loudly, but as soon as he returned, they immediately returned to serious expressions. This repetitive laugh design pushes the humor to a climax. This plot fully demonstrates the characteristics of "The Mermaid" as a typical Stephen Chow movie, spliced together by multiple laughs. Although many people may have forgotten the plot, this clip is definitely unforgettable.
It is also worth mentioning a performance by Fan Wei and Feng Yuanzheng in "No Thieves in the World". Although this movie made Wang Baoqiang famous overnight, the honest robbers played by Fan Wei and Feng Yuanzheng left a deep impression. The two robbed on the train wearing childish masks, among which Fan Wei stammered and asked to hand over the IP, IC, IQ card, obviously lacking IQ. And Feng Yuanzheng changed the norm and played a sissy role, pointing at the orchid and saying: "Be serious, rob", this contrast makes people laugh. Although this scene is not essential throughout the film, it sets the mood and adds to the playfulness of the film.
During the filming, Feng Xiaogang struggled with whether to keep this performance, but finally decided to put it in the film. It turned out to be a wise choice, as it added a lot of jokes to the film and became one of the classic scenes that audiences will never forget. Even with only a few short shots, Fan Wei and Feng Yuanzheng left a deep impression on the audience. Since then, Fan Wei has gradually become a well-recognized and powerful actor, participating in many high-profile films and winning many important awards. And Feng Yuanzheng continued to play the role of a sissy in "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb", which is unforgettable.
In "Charlotte's Troubles", there is a very hilarious clip where Charlotte asks Ma Dongmei's house in room 322. Chang Shikui, who plays Uncle Fork, is not a professional actor, but an ordinary retired worker. When "Charlotte's Troubles" was filmed near his home, he went out of curiosity, and the director just needed to add a scene temporarily, so he was selected to star. Despite his initial apprehensions, with the encouragement of the director, he did a brilliant job with very good results.
Lee Sung-ru is known for his sharp comments in "Actors Please Be in Place", and he has very high requirements for actors, especially in terms of lines. His cameo performance in "Big Shot" is very classic, playing a mentally ill person and successfully completing hundreds of words of lines, once shot through the camera. At that time, Feng Xiaogang asked him to make a temporary cameo, and the time was pressing, but he still performed well and showed his superb acting skills. During the shoot, we double-checked and strived for perfection. After confirming that everything was correct, we were able to complete a shoot without any problems. Everyone in the audience was shocked by our performance and applauded.
Don't ask for the best, but ask for the most expensive", this line has become one of the classics of the whole play. As a director, Feng Xiaogang does not often play cameo roles in movies, but his performance in this film is really remarkable. Especially the arrogant and domineering "who else" is impressive. Even Jack Ma said that this sentence left the deepest impression on him. In addition, there are other eye-catching lines, such as "What to see, I have never seen such a handsome boss" and so on. Although Feng Xiaogang's acting skills are not the best, his performance in the film is full of comedy, and the domineering and later obscenity of the character are vividly interpreted.
