The recent poverty alleviation drama "Mountains and Seas" everyone has watched, right?
As a poverty alleviation theme drama, this drama actually got a high score of 9.4 points in Douban, and there are many young people in the audience group, which is actually very rare to see.
The show features an all-star cast, including not only Huang Xuan, Zhang Jiayi, Huang Jue, You Yongzhi, Yan Ni, Yao Chen, Guo Jingfei, ReIza, Zu Feng and others, but also a variety of big-name cameos in the noonday sunshine system. Among the stars, the performances of Huang Xuan, Zhang Jiayi, You Yongzhi, Guo Jingfei and others have been very prominent, but as the actor of the heroine Li Shuihua, the actor ReIza still gives people many surprises.
The following is a face-to-face interview between Yi Xuanjun and Reiza -

After the interview to get the "splash"
As a less prolific actor, the last time Reiza was impressed was as a maid tanqi in "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an". This time, she broke the audience's expectations for her acting skills.
In that web drama that is almost all male characters, Tanqi, played by Reiza, is stubborn and enthusiastic, becoming an important figure in saving the protagonist Yu Shuihuo at a critical moment, and in the mouth of the protagonist Zhang Xiaojing, it is "in the millions of people in Chang'an City, there is no longer a girl like you."
This role also allowed Reiza to finally get rid of the label she had been on for many years - Ning Concubine in 2011's "The Biography of Zhen Huan".
In the drama "The Biography of Zhen Huan", which almost everyone has a drama, Ning Concubine, played by Reiza, is also very special. She has always loved the prince, and the personality of daring to love and dare to hate is also unique in the harem three thousand.
From 2011's "The Biography of Zhen Huan" to 2018's "Chang'an Twelve Hours", from the perspective of episodes alone, Reiza's output is not too high. In the show business circle where you can fall behind for a year without acting, Reiza seems to have some "Buddhas". In Reiza's view, this is somewhat related to his own personality.
"Whether you can meet the right role or not is basically based on luck." Even though there have been many classic roles, in the market, Reiza still believes that he still belongs to the stage of being selected by the role. She also admitted that her previous career was somewhat at ease, the work arrangement would not be particularly intensive, and there were not many attempts other than acting.
This is also why everyone rarely sees her outside the series, and her Weibo is also full of different star life. Feed the cats, go shopping, and exude a sense of paradise in the mountains and wilderness.
Fortunately, she did not give up the opportunity to fight for "Mountains and Seas" this time, and "Mountains and Seas" did not miss her.
Reiza said that she heard the news that the crew of "Mountains and Seas" (formerly known as "Minning Town") sent out the news of the actor's interview, although she did not get the specific description of the character, she went to the interview against the golden sign of the noonday sunshine team.
"When I went there, it was actually an idea, I wanted the director to know that there was an actress like me. When communicating with the director team, I learned about the role of Splash, and in the end, the director team chose me to interpret. ”
Use life experience to get close to the splash
After the broadcast of "Mountains and Seas", many people were shocked that Reiza's acting skills are now natural and skilled, with no experience in rural life, but he can play the northwest peasant women perfectly, "Whether it is walking posture or skilled in doing farm work, he looks like a local." ”
Reiza's performances in several opening scenes established the role of Splash.
For example, because of his opposition to arranged marriages, Shui Hua decided to pick up the train and run away from home. When she was found by her former friend, she was aggrieved and sad, afraid that the other party would arrest her and go back.
Weak and helpless girls, when faced with lovers who cannot be together, first bow their heads like a child who has made mistakes, and then seem to be pampered and aggrieved. Reiza's performance almost broke the past paradigm of performing for young girls, and a young girl who could not control her fate immediately came alive.
For another example, when Shui Hua finally decided to return to her hometown, obey her father's arrangement to marry someone, and meet Defu again in the village, she looked helpless, pursed her mouth and bowed her head, and couldn't help but cry bitterly.
Almost all the audience was shocked by this layered performance, and a few simple performances can allow the audience to quickly establish an understanding of the characters.
In the follow-up plot, Shui Hua changes from a young girl to a mother, and she also has to carry the burden of the family after her husband is disabled, and her tenacity is admirable.
A man dragged the whole family and belongings and walked for seven days and seven nights.
When she followed the advice of agricultural experts to learn to grow mushrooms, the joy of harvesting was also overflowing.
Many viewers said that the plot of "Mountains and Seas" gives people a high degree of credibility, because these actors do not consider personal image at all, and their character shaping comes from the understanding of the role, what kind of identity to do what kind of things, and will not care whether it is good or not.
When building a house and ramming the soil, it is my own feet that step on the mud.
When picking mushrooms, they are covered with fertilizer bags.
It can be said that Reiza, who has no experience in rural life, has played a splash with his superb acting skills.
But for Reiza, who has lived in the city since childhood, an actor performing a character does not necessarily require the same life experience, but more needs to be observed and imitated in daily life.
"Although I don't know the peasant women in Xihaigu, Ningxia directly, we will always meet people similar to her around us, how they walk, what kind of eyes they have when they see people, and these daily observations are enough to help me understand and shape the characters."
The performance also required Reiza to adopt the northwestern dialect, although everyone knows that Reiza is ethnic Kazakh, but she was not actually born in Xinjiang, but was born in Beijing from an early age, and she is also a proper Beijing girl.
From the decision to enter the group to the actual shooting, the whole crew decided to shoot in the northwest dialect, which was still a big problem for this native Beijing girl. "I really don't have much of a foundation in the Northwest dialect myself, and I can only learn hard. Our screenwriters would record the lines sentence by sentence and learn them repeatedly before filming began. ”
As an actor who is a little more serious about the performance itself, she is actually a little anxious before the official start of filming, "because I am particularly worried that the dialect is not accurate, the performance itself and the language will affect each other, and I am afraid that when I am acting, I have to think about whether the language is right, which may affect the overall performance of the performance." Fortunately, many of the actors in the crew are locals in the northwest, which creates a good language environment for the whole crew, and when it comes to the actual shooting, Reiza found that the language does not have much impact, which relaxes."
Every detail is designed
The filming of "Mountains and Seas" was officially completed on October 25, 2020, which has been counted for more than half a year. But when it comes to the role of Splash, Reiza can still casually say more than ten classic scenes. As for why the characters use certain eyes, why they laugh, why they look up, almost all the designs are carefully considered by her.
"When the reporter came to interview the splash mushroom, I added a design to her, that is, to get a mirror. A woman like Splash may not have time to look in the mirror at all, but her beauty-loving nature will not change. Someone came to interview, and they had to go on TV, so they must still think about dressing up better. ”
In the interview picture circulating on the Internet, Reiza also pointed out that Splash's smile is different from Thatbo and Xiu'er, "They just laugh at the camera, but Splash is still very shy to face the camera, tilting his head and laughing." ”
In Reiza's view, the most moving part of the splash is precisely not her near-perfect quality, "I did not want to show a divine figure, but she chose to be optimistic and laughing in the face of the suffering of life and fate." She has been trying to balance the relationship between family and struggle, and she is motivating herself with laughter. ”
The biggest change in life is becoming a mom
If you trace reiza's debut, you have to go back to the cover of "Ruili" when she was a teenager, and it was Yang Mi who shot the cover with her at that time.
With her outstanding appearance conditions soon after the status of a model, her acting talent was also excavated by many people in the industry, under the recommendation of everyone, she went to the Beijing Film Academy, and became an actor with a class as she wished.
In 2006, Reiza graduated from Nortel and participated in her first film Spread Your Map, but it was not released. In the years that followed, she also played some unknown small roles in the film crew.
For four years, from 2007 to 2011, Reiza worked as an actor until he entered the crew of "The Biography of Zhen Huan". There is no luck of sudden popularity, Reiza has not given up the tempering of acting skills, and the role of Ning Concubine is also won by her own acting skills.
In the following years, her resources also improved a lot, and in "Kyushu • Sea Muyun", she played a woman who grew up on horseback, desperately working out for the role, and finally presented Jin Haizhu, who had a strong personality.
In the movie "Gun Hunting", she has a lot of fight scenes, shoot it up and don't kill, hit her head on the ground, causing a slight concussion.
Until I met the Tanqi of "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an" and hitched a ride on the express train of high-quality online dramas, this became an actress with a name in everyone's heart. Reiza's luck is finally coming.
When he took over the role of Splash, Reiza also ushered in a huge change in his life and became a mother. But when she decided to join the group, Reiza was still breastfeeding. This special situation is actually very easy for actresses to miss opportunities and miss the golden upswing period.
But the crew of "Mountains and Seas" chose to accept her and believe in her. At the launch of the TV series, Reiza also thanked the director and the crew in particular for giving nursing mothers a job opportunity.
For her, becoming a mother is the biggest turning point in her life for so many years, and she also uses the new knowledge she learned after becoming a mother to the shaping of water splash. In the recently broadcast plot, Shui Hua went home from learning from the mushroom shed, and after entering the house, he took a towel to wipe sweat on his body, and this action was considered by the audience to be "God's restoration", "This is after becoming a mother, I know where the female body will sweat a lot." ”
The new identity has completely changed her since then, "because I have the direction to work for, there is a lot of responsibility in life, then I must be more active and proactive in my work, and now if there is any opportunity, I will rush forward, 'I can, I am willing to try'." Reiza said that she will not be as comfortable as before, and for the audience who likes her, this time there is finally no need to worry about the actor Reiza suddenly disappearing again.
