According to Chinese media, Yang Mi's career is said to be not going well. Her latest blockbuster received negative feedback. Her recent appearance at the Cannes Film Festival also caused controversy.
TV blockbuster turns into flop
At present, Fox Spirit: The Red Moon is considered a flop as the number of viewers is decreasing. The film stars Duong Mich and Cung Tuan.
The film is considered a blockbuster of Chinese television in 2024 because it was invested with a large budget and starred Duong Mich and Cung Tuan. However, according to the latest statistics, the number of online viewers of the film has only reached 30,000 - 60,000. This number is considered quite disappointing.
Comments about the film took up a lot of positions on Weibo, but most of them were negative comments. The film's content was criticized for lacking depth, and the emotional scenes were done hastily.
The audience also said that the interaction between Duong Mich and Cung Tuan was very disappointing. In the film, Duong Mich plays the female lead role of Do Son Hong Hong.
Before the film aired, some viewers were worried that Duong Mich was too old for the character in the film. The 38-year-old actress could no longer maintain her innocent, cute appearance.
During the process of working together, the difference in appearance and age between Duong Mich and her co-star made many people realize. The acting of both was also commented as quite "weak" when Duong Mich still did not change her acting style while Cung Tuan was judged as "immature".
Fox Spirit Little Red Lady: Moon Red Heaven is adapted from a popular game that has a large following. The highlight of the film is the costumes that are praised for being eye-catching and still retaining the characteristics of the characters in the game.
In addition to the two main actors, the film also features actors Truong Lang Hac, Tran Do Linh, Quach Hieu Dinh, Ho Lien Hinh, Nguoi Triet Minh...
Controversial presence at Cannes Film Festival
On May 25, Yang Mi appeared on the red carpet of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. The actress attended this year's festival as an actress in the film Xiang Yuan Long. This is a new work by director Chan Ke Tam with the main roles of Zhang Ziyi and Lam Ka Yin.
Xiang Yuan Long is not in the competition category but still received attention from critics and audiences when it was screened at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival.
It is known that this is the second time Duong Mich has been invited to attend the Cannes Film Festival. However, Duong Mich's attitude and fashion choices at Cannes have created controversy on Chinese social networks.
Many people expressed surprise when they saw Duong Mich wearing a dress with a different color tone compared to the rest of the cast. While the artists chose dark colors, the female lead Zhang Ziyi chose a dark purple dress, Duong Mich wore a custom-designed dress in sparkling silver.
Many fans of Zhang Ziyi criticized Yang Mi for deliberately "showing off" and attracting media attention even though she is not the main actress. Some viewers who love the actress of Night Party analyzed that in the international market, Yang Mi is still a rather obscure name compared to Zhang Ziyi.
It is known that Zhang Ziyi received special treatment from the Organizing Committee of the 2024 Cannes Film Festival when she had 3 minutes to walk on the red carpet and attract international media lenses.
Zhang Ziyi's charisma and beauty received compliments from international reporters. She posed comfortably when hundreds of cameras were focused on her. Zhang Ziyi's expression was always confident and radiant.
Meanwhile, Duong Mich stood in a corner, her expression quite timid. Sina commented: "Duong Mich's face was tense as she walked on the international red carpet."
QQ also commented: "Perhaps, the decision to go to Cannes with the film crew of Xiang Yuan Long was a mistake for Yang Mi. In the domestic market, she may be famous and well-known. But on the international red carpet, she is not too outstanding. Her reserve says it all."
Duong Mich (born 1986) is one of the most famous actresses of the 8X generation in the Chinese entertainment industry today. The beauty has been acting since the age of 4 and is known for the films The Return of the Condor Heroes 2006, Beauty's Scheme, Chinese Paladin 3, Palace, Tiny Times, Ancient Sword, Eternal Love...
In 2022, she was named in the list of 10 most famous stars in China and had more than 100 million followers on social networks. Duong Mich is trusted by many brands and is the representative face of many famous brands.
The actress is also a shareholder of 10 companies. After many years in the entertainment industry, Duong Mich owns a huge fortune, estimated at 4.5 billion NDT (more than 15,000 billion VND).
In early 2023, Duong Mich decided to withdraw from Gia Hanh Thien Ha entertainment company to find her own path. Withdrawing from Gia Hanh Thien Ha is considered a step forward in the career of the actress born in 1986.
Some close sources revealed that Duong Mich is bored with familiar romantic or historical roles. She wants to pursue roles that require deep acting, and drama films that are not popular with viewers.
Her films released in 2024 have not met expectations. Before Fox Spirit: The Red Moon, Yang Mi also dared to try her hand at the drama Harbin 1944. However, the 8X beauty's performance disappointed the audience and the film's viewership gradually decreased towards the end.
