But he is not from the mainland. As the leader of the Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment industry, he has a responsibility and he really has some younger generations over there whom he admires.
So he thought that if the Thirteen Soldiers could be played by actors from mainland China, then there should be no problem in having actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan play the Huns.
This... is really no problem.
They're all villains anyway.
Anyone can play it.
As long as you are willing to cooperate with makeup and make yourself look ugly, it will be fine.
Having already offended Jackie Chan before, Wei Jun couldn't keep denying him face.
Respect is mutual. If Jackie Chan gives in, he can't continue to be strong.
The entertainment industry, like the underworld, is never about fighting and killing, but about human relationships and worldly wisdom.
So Wei Jun agreed to Jackie Chan's request, but he added one more thing: "Brother Long, since you said so, I will naturally give you face.
However, "The Thirteen Soldiers Return to the Cave" is a patriotic film with a very positive core.
It's fine for actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan to participate, I welcome them, but I want them to do one thing before they do so."
Jackie Chan: "What's the matter?"
Wei Jun chuckled and said, "It's very simple. Just publicly express your support for One China on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
As long as this is achieved, my door will always be open to patriotic actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan."
Jackie Chan: "..."
Looking at Wei Jun, he didn't know what to say.
Is there anything wrong with Wei Jun’s request...not at all.
Not only is there nothing wrong with it, it is also politically correct.
But was Wei Jun's move ruthless? Extremely ruthless.
In Hong Kong and Taiwan, there are certainly people who agree with the one-China principle, but there are even more people who disagree.
Especially the Formosa.
People over there generally oppose one China, and not many support the return of Taiwan.
(Let me be a prophet for once. There is basically no hope for peaceful reunification. It will have to be a military reunification sooner or later.) Wei Jun asked the Hong Kong and Taiwan stars to do this in order to alienate themselves from their local fans and cut off their retreat.
There are very few stars who are willing to do this.
Wei Jun certainly knew that this move was making things difficult for others, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
If you want to come to the mainland to make money, you should put your position in the right place.
People who want to make money and be anti-China at the same time should get as far away from Wei Jun as possible.
"Brother Long, is everything okay? This is very simple."
Wei Jundao.
Jackie Chan: ... "It would be strange if there were no problems.
He himself is not afraid and has expressed this many times in public, otherwise his status in the country would not be so high.
But not everyone can be as clear-headed as he is.
Otherwise, why is there only one Jackie Chan?
Jet Li is from the mainland, and his attitude in this regard is not as good as Jackie Chan.
"Mr. Wei, is it okay to release a statement on Weibo or Station A?" Jackie Chan asked.
Wei Jun sneered: "Of course not, if you want to post it, post it on the Internet. This thing is for fans in Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas fans to see.
The position is unclear. Such stars are not qualified to come to the mainland to make money. Does Brother Long disagree with this? "
Jackie Chan waved his hands repeatedly: "Of course I agree. You know I have never had any problem with this."
Wei Jun nodded: "So I admire Brother Long very much and respect him very much."
This is real.
Of course, this did not stop him from looking down on the drug-addicted Prince Long.
Let’s put things in perspective. If the father is a hero and the son is a loser, then of course the son will be looked down upon by others.
"That's it, my request is simple, just a statement.
I, Wei Jun, have always been a peace-loving person. We are all one family across the Taiwan Strait and in Hong Kong and Macau. As long as others treat us as friends, I, Wei Jun, will definitely make friends with them.
Mr. Wei spoke very magnanimously.
Jackie Chan could only smile bitterly: Try starving yourself.
He posed a difficult problem to Wei Jun.
The King of Wei directly defeated him.
And he was very worried that Wei Jun would make this matter bigger.
Jackie Chan is right to worry.
Wei Jun really made things worse.
He spoke again on his official account of Station A.
Just expose this matter directly.
"@Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan contacted me today and said that many actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan have approached him, hoping to play roles in 'The Thirteen Warriors Return to the Cave'.
Brother Long said to me earnestly that we are all Chinese and we cannot be artificially divided because of regional issues.
I think what Brother Long said makes a lot of sense. The two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places are one family. We are all Chinese and we should be united and not differentiate between each other.
So I told Brother Long that as long as actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan publicly express their support for One China on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, the crew's door will always be open to those patriotic actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the same standards will apply to my future dramas, whether they are movies or TV series.
I, Wei, hereby assure you that I treat all actors from across Taiwan, Mainland China, and Hong Kong equally."
After Wei Jun finished his speech, he informed all the mainland actors who had been confirmed to participate in "The Thirteen Soldiers Return to the Cave".
Then Zhang Yi, Yu Hewei, Yu Rongguang, Huang Xiaoming, Duan Yihong, Jiang Wu and others understood the meaning of the song and directly cooperated with Wei Jun to issue a statement.
Jiang Wu is director Jiang Wen's younger brother. He has a rough appearance and was also chosen by Wei Jun. He thought that playing a soldier in this way would definitely not distract the audience.
These actors are all from mainland China, and their core audience is Chinese, so it is natural for them to express their opinions.
Wei Jun’s statement, coupled with the statements of these people, immediately ignited public opinion.
Many media outlets have begun to follow up on this incident, including official media.
Because what Wei Jun did is worthy of praise and promotion no matter what, and there is nothing wrong with it.
In addition, the news media always likes to watch the excitement and soon hyped up the incident.
Mr. Wei received a lot of praise.
"Director Wei has positive energy."
"This is the future of the entertainment industry. Only directors like this can bring a new trend to the entertainment industry."
"Support Director Wei. Anyone who doesn't issue a statement should get out of the entertainment industry."
"Director Wei, please release the names of the actors. We want to see who has issued a statement and who has not.
A reporter went to interview Wei Jun.
Wei Jun smiled and said that there were many, but the list was given to him by Jackie Chan, so you can just ask Jackie Chan for the specific names.
Then a bunch of people went to ask Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan felt so uncomfortable.
This bastard Wei Jun really made things worse, and he is the one who got into trouble.
But no Hong Kong or Taiwan celebrities have come forward to issue a statement, and he is also very angry.
I asked you for a role, and you're here to sabotage me?
Jackie Chan is definitely a big brother in the Chinese film industry. As a superstar, he has no need to worry about offending anyone.
He was just afraid of offending his superiors and his fans.
So in a rage, Jackie Chan didn't bother to defend those people and directly revealed the list during the interview.
Jackie Chan also publicly stated: "I think Director Wei has great personality and is very talented. I support the director.
I will use my own account to publicly express my stance. As for the others, I don't know. You should go interview the parties involved."
Jackie Chan did what he said and he did express his stance.
You have to express your opinion.
After all, he is the male lead in "The Thirteen Soldiers Return to the Cave".
But Jackie Chan is fine, he has expressed his attitude many times.
The ones who are really in trouble are those two-faced Hong Kong and Taiwan stars.
The current situation is that if they express their opinions, they will be scolded by local fans.
But if you don’t express your opinion, you will be scolded by fans in mainland China.
Trouble on both sides.
The latter situation will be more serious, because Wei Jun started it, and anyone who dares to use them later may trigger a boycott from mainland netizens.
Directly affects their value.
But few people dare to express their opinions openly.
After all, there are too many anti-China elements in the entertainment industry.
People in the mainland entertainment industry were amazed by Wei Jun's move of cutting off the source of the problem.
Even Da Tiantian came over to pay her respects to Wei Jun.
"Mr. Wei, how did you come up with this dirty trick?" Da Tiantian asked curiously.
Wei Jun chuckled: "What do you mean by dirty tricks? I just exposed those clowns."
"Your move is too ruthless. It completely cuts off their retreat."
Da Tiantian said, "And if you do this, all our mainland crews will probably do the same in the future. After all, this way we have zero risk and can also please the audience."
"That's how it should be done. Since we are all Chinese, we should all agree on the one-China principle."
Wei Jun said calmly.
"You're amazing. My dad asked me to invite you home for dinner. I want to get to know you and praise my ability to identify talented people in front of you."
Da Tiantian said with a smile.
Wei Jun blinked: "Your dad?"
"correct."
"Um... Mr. Minister?"
"It's just my dad. It's just a family dinner. You don't have to think too much about it. He just thinks you're amazing."
Da Tiantian said.
Wei Jun: "You're not testing your son-in-law, are you?"
Da Tiantian snorted, "You wishful thinking, are you going or not?"
"Why not go?" Wei Jun thought to himself, I'm not stupid.
He even wanted to take a photo with Da Tiantian's father, then print it out and hang it in his office.
Even as a screensaver.
Let’s see who else in the entertainment industry dares to offend me.
This is a good opportunity to take advantage of the power of others.
Facts have proven that there are really not many Hong Kong and Taiwan stars who dare to make such a statement.
Of course, there are still people.
