There are many stories in the entertainment industry, and today the alliance owner will talk with you about the "ceiling" of the entertainment industry and the story of the top goddess Gong Li
In the entertainment industry, where flowers bloom and a hundred flowers bloom, there is no shortage of female stars who appear on the scene and are domineering. For example, the famous blanket star "So-and-so" and ice that everyone knew about at that time. Its ambitions were so great that they even put the "dragon robe" on the red carpet.
Another example is Yang Ying, with a TV series, she can get the title of "cutout" king. It is also a "Grand Slam" of all acting awards of the Confidence Awards.
Of course, the title of these female stars is not only because of their own ambitions, but also because of the flaws in their works that they are "fortunate" to receive such "honors". And there is such a person in the entertainment industry, she is living herself into the "Gong Emperor". That's right, she's Gong Li.
Gong Li, born in 1965, has always had a dream of being an actress. In order to act, she can overcome all the difficulties and take the college entrance examination for two consecutive years. Evaluated by her teachers as having no talent for acting, she also did not receive the support of her parents because of the poor conditions at home. Gong Li, who was born with the character of not accepting defeat in her bones, continued to take the exam while working to earn her own tuition. Finally, after experiencing various tribulations, Gong Li was finally admitted to the Chinese opera dangerously.
After the earnest recommendation of the Chinese opera teacher, Gong Li was selected by director Zhang Yimou to play the role of "Nine Children" in the movie "Red Sorghum". When the director and the original author were questioning how Gong Li, a young and beautiful, white, thin and weak girl, could play a village woman who had lived in the countryside for a long time, Gong Li used her unremitting efforts to break everyone's doubts about her.
Gong Li, who does not have an advantage in acting talent, went to the countryside to work in order to play the role of "Jiu'er" well before the movie started. Carry water, grow sorghum or even feed livestock. Tanned skin. It can be said that Gong Li is more like torturing herself in disguise. After the movie was released, the effect was surprisingly good. No one can say that Gong Li is not an authentic "village girl". The Golden Bear Award of the 38th Berlin International Film Festival is the best reward for Gong Li's efforts.
In 1992, a "Qiu Ju Fights a Lawsuit" shocked the audience's attention. Some people still have a hard time believing that the "rural woman" whose hair was as dry as straw, whose face was badly sunburned, and who spoke Shaanxi dialect was Actually Gong Li. Yes, in order to play "Qiu Ju Fights a Lawsuit" Gong Li deliberately put on a thick and heavy cotton coat to dress up ugly. In this way, Gong Li wore a heavy cotton jacket and washed her hair with washing powder. I ate and lived with the villagers in the village for several months, and even learned the local dialect. Finally, the most "real" village woman "Qiu Ju" is presented in front of the audience's eyes. Even to this day, Gong Li can still communicate with the locals in Shaanxi dialect.
After "Qiu Ju Fights the Lawsuit", some people have always questioned that Gong Li's play path is limited to the role of "village woman". Everyone has forgotten the "like immortals" and "like dreams" in "Gamblers On the Beach" That kind of country falling into the city, that kind of dream like his own name.
Gong Li is not a person who is strict with the script. On the contrary, in order to challenge different roles, she can take over the comedy film "Tang Bohu Dian Qiu Xiang" as "Qiu Xiang" by Stephen Chow.
You can also make a pure commercial film "Journey to the West: Sun Wukong Three Dozen White Bone Essences" as "White Bone Essence".
Gong Li only had strict requirements for herself. She can experience the role for two or three months for a movie. I even went to Japan for a "Memoirs of a Geisha" and spent a month and a half experiencing the local culture, and I practiced 2,000 times a day for a 4-second "fan-throwing" shot in a movie.
In 2020, Gong Li took over the film "Win the Championship" as coach Lang Ping. For Gong Li, who did not know anything about volleyball, ate and lived with the players and Lang's guidance at the women's volleyball base. Wherever Lang Ping was, you could see Gong Li holding a pen and a notebook making records. It was as if Gong Li's eyes had already grown on Lang Ping's body.
After the release of the movie, netizens finally understood what Gong Li had done in the volleyball base in recent months. "Lang Ping" in "Win the Championship" said every word and deed, every move. Even the posture of holding a pen, the technique of pushing glasses, the movement of walking, and even the slightly hunched posture are as if Lang Ping is playing. And this is the surprise that Gong Li brought to us from the women's volleyball base.
For a "ceiling" level figure in the entertainment industry like Gong Li. From the first work in 1987, "Red Sorghum", to 2020's "Win the Championship", only 29 of the 35 works starred. On average, one work a year is a pitifully small amount. However, Gong Li has achieved one masterpiece after another with her serious attitude towards professionalism. To prove to everyone the strength of what is called the goddess of flowing water, the iron beat "Gong Huang".
