In 20 19, The Sheep Without a Shepherd, starring Sean, occupied the film hot search list, and the film won overwhelming praise. Douban scored as high as 7.6, and the box office broke through10 billion. Some people even said, "Sean can win the best actor for this play." Shawn used to be a chopsticks brother, but now the label of this group is getting weaker and weaker. Xiao Yang became a high-profile figure all the way, while Wang Terry, another chopstick, disappeared, and some of them gradually lost track of the rhythm and seemed to be forgotten.
Chopsticks brothers were born, and Memoirs of a Male Geisha became popular on the Internet. In 2007, the Chopsticks Brothers officially joined the army, and the musical film Memoirs of a Geisha starring Sean and Wang Terry was premiered, which quickly swept all the major awards of Internet video in that year, and even the song "Blessing Your Dear" became popular on the Internet. But at that time, it was not an era when the Internet was particularly developed. Even though the chopsticks brothers are in full swing on the internet, they are still unknown when they return to reality. However, the cooperation between Sean and Wang Terry is becoming more and more frequent and tacit.
Before their cooperation, Wang Terry was a freelance musician. Although he studied art, he only had music in his heart and always wanted to realize his dream of becoming a singer. Xiao Yang, who graduated from Beijing Film Academy, is a professional advertising director, but he dreams of becoming a great director.
Sean and Terry Wang, seemingly unrelated people, even have different dreams, but they can come together because they can understand each other's words, and they both have an unfulfilled dream in their hearts.
At that time, Terry Wang, a singer, couldn't even support himself. She can only rely on writing lyrics to pin her dreams and fulfill the demands of customers for advertisements. Xiao Yang, a senior, was advertising. His first customer was Wang Tairui. When they first met, it was just a simple cooperative relationship, and it was also a relationship between Party A and Party B. I didn't expect to be able to combine later and become good friends.
Sean worked hard as an advertising director, and Wang Terry wrote songs and received advertisements. However, their careers have some unexpected connections at the same time and in different spaces. The director and the song may be a very good movie, so they had a bold idea, giving up making advertisements and receiving advertisements, but directly combining them, and there was the 2007 Memoirs of a Geisha.
Memoirs of a Male Geisha won Sean the "Most Powerful Network Director Award in 2008" and the "China Network Video List Special Contribution Award in 2008". For Xiao Yang, although these two awards are not excellent honors, they undoubtedly give hope to the director's dream in his heart. And Wang Taili's song "Bless Your Dear" also became popular, which made the musician's dream in his heart rise.
Old boys was born and Little Apple became popular. The days of dreaming in the whole country are always the best life in memory and the most profound years in life. In 20 10, China film group held the "1 1 degree youth film activity" to support the new online directors, and the chopsticks brothers were also invited to participate. This may be a trivial matter for many online directors, but for Sean and Wang Terry, it is an opportunity to change their lives.
Terry Wang and Sean agreed to shoot a story about old boys and also wrote a 40-minute script, but the money given by the project was only enough to shoot a short film of 10 minutes. Without sponsorship, the two had to pay for themselves and keep throwing money into it. The film was filmed for three months. If you have money, you can turn on your mobile phone, and if you have no money, you can write a script.
During the filming of old boys, Wang Terry's father was diagnosed with lymphoma, and his health went from bad to worse. On his deathbed, his father said to Wang Tairui, "Don't do irrelevant things, do something." . After listening to his father, Wang Terry felt like a loser. After all, Wang Trebey xiaoyangda 1 1 years old, Sean has youth to squander, and Wang Terry has to support his family.
After careful consideration, Wang Terry said sadly to Sean, "old boys" is the last film of Chopsticks Brothers. Even if the tombstone is always there, what should I do in the future? .
Wang Terui is looking forward to the release of the micro-film old boys, which can be shown to his weak father. But before the film was finished, Wang Terry didn't even see his father for the last time. After his father died, Wang Terry felt that he was a restless son, always doing nothing. Perhaps the sad mood has nowhere to release, or perhaps it is caused by feelings. Wang Terui wrote a song "Father", which touched many people.
20 10 10, old boys was finally released in youku. Although the story is not so novel, only two people are struggling in their dreams and reality, but it is popular all over the country. Many post-70s and post-80s were moved by their feelings and burst into tears. But many people don't know that many stories in the movie are Wang Terry's own experiences. But in real life, Wang Terry is worse than movies, and his obsession with music is even crazier.
Old boys has become a memories of youth for a large number of people, and the song of the same name of old boys has also become a must-have song for KTV. After old boys became popular, Sean excitedly called Wang Terry and said, "Lao Wang, you don't have to change careers." . Wang Terui completely put down the idea of doing business and began to make music.
Seeing old boys's success, the two wanted to do bigger things, and began to prepare for the Raptors crossing the river in old boys. This film is a continuation of old boys's story, but it didn't inherit old boys's good reputation, and it also became a downright bad film. What Sean and Wang Terry didn't expect was that the movie's propaganda song "Little Apple" was a mess, which quickly crowded out the "most dazzling national style", a square dance market with no living space at all.
Since then, the chopsticks brothers have become household names and are also the male gods of the square dance generation. No one can't sing little apples, and no one can't jump. This seems to be a peak of the chopsticks brothers and the beginning of their respective struggles.
Wang Terry is the winner of Adult Life, and his daughter participated in Youth with You 2. Chopsticks brothers were originally the beginning of filming, but I didn't expect to have a music label and become a new divine comedy combination. When both of them are famous, they are faced with the choice of career development, which is related to their initial dreams. Xiao Yang wants to be an actor, a director and create better movies, while Wang Terry wants to be a musician and continue to develop in the music industry.
Since the little apple, the chopsticks brothers have rarely appeared in public together, but they have not turned against each other, but have maintained the relationship of good friends, just chasing different dreams.
In 20 15, Sean gradually gained a foothold in the entertainment circle with the role of "Kuntai" police chief in Detective Chinatown, and his acting skills were highly praised. Sean took advantage of the trend and appeared in movies such as Lover, Weather Pre-explosion and Sheep without Shepherd, and gradually got on the right track. On the road of performance, Xiao Yang became more and more smooth and became a person to be reckoned with. He also has more exposure opportunities and his value is rising.
After Wang Terry left Sean, although it was not as smooth as Sean, he never created dazzling music again. Wang Terry is not from a regular school. Although he tried hard to have musical talent, his understanding of music was not enough to support his later creation. When Sean frequently appeared in movies, Wang Terry also frequently participated in variety shows, but it did not cause any sensation.
Sean is remembered for his amazing role, while Wang Terry gradually faded out of the screen because the music was not hot. The gap between them is getting bigger and bigger, as evidenced by the fact that there are 4.58 million fans in Weibo compared with 630,000 fans.
Wang Terry knew that he and Sean were not in the same breath, so he turned the focus of his life to his family. Recently, Rannee Wang, the daughter of Wang Terui, participated in the reality show competition "Youth has You 2". Wang Terry's life is no longer about music, movies and himself, but about his daughter Wang Lanni.
Wang Terry realized his dream as a musician at the age of 40. Now he has a happy family and a chopsticks brother, Sean who never gives up. Although this kind of life is not as bright as Sean's, it is exciting and meaningful enough, and it is also a winner in life.
Dreams, like classics, will never fade because of time, but are more precious. No matter when and where their fame is different, Sean and Wang Terry will remember that they dreamed of each other's days, and each other is still the most important friend. Wang Terry's songs are like meteors that suddenly pass by. They once lit up a period of life, but the glory will eventually pass. For Wang Terry, his life was lucky enough, but his luck was fleeting and did not always appear on the road of dreams. He became a very ordinary "old boys".
