"The stars are out." Someone yelled on the red carpet in Cannes. It is not the audience who shouts this, but an actor.
People followed the sound and looked out, and out were the two main actors of "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", and it was Qin Hao who shouted this sentence. He had just walked through the red carpet and somehow reappeared here.
Fans who came to see the big stars were dispersing, and it was not clear which one was sung. "Dude, who are you?" The crowd didn't know who said it.
It was 2009, and few of the audiences who came to join in the fun knew Qin Hao. Everyone came to see Shu Qi, who was a jury member at the 62nd Cannes Film Festival.
"The Night of Spring Breeze Drunkenness" Qin Hao twisted and turned
Although Qin Hao's "star dream" on this trip to Cannes was not made, his fame in the circle soared, and he signed in the name of gold medal agent Wang Jinghua the following year.
The first time the two met, Wang Jinghua said to Qin Hao: "Your best time should start at the age of 39." ”
However, Wang Jinghua was wrong.
01
According to Baidu Encyclopedia, Qin Hao's date of birth is May 19, 1978, and he is 42 years old this year. Because of "The Hidden Corner", he was on fire, and the fire was out of the circle. It was 3 years later than Wang Jinghua predicted.
However, there seems to be something wrong with this date of birth. Many people know: the youngest boy in the 96-level Chinese opera performance star class is Liu Ye, and the youngest girl is Zhang Ziyi.
And now, Qin Hao is more than 2 months younger than Liu Ye. But none of that matters.
From this summer onwards, he is no longer the husband of Yi Nengjing in the eyes of passers-by, he is the actor Qin Hao, the actor Who can play the "scumbag" the most.
He is Zhang Dongsheng, Yan Liang, Xu Dong, Jiang Cheng, Li Jun, Qiao Yongzhao, Jiang Zicheng, Wu Xie, Sha Fuming...
If you are not familiar with the names of these characters, then I would like to talk to you about these 4 works first.
"Green Red"
Qin Hao did not shoot a drama three years after graduating from Chinese opera, and Wang Xiaoshuai's "Qinghong" was the first one. He plays the male number one Li Jun, and the female protagonist is 19-year-old Gao Yuanyuan.
Wearing flared pants, wearing a pompous toad mirror, perming your head, and always having a cigarette in your mouth, you can tell at a glance that this is a young mechanic of 80 years.
At an underground dance, Qin Hao dressed up as Elvis Presley and teased the female students.
A dance choreographed by Qin Hao
In 2005, "Green Red" was released in France. The French media said that the dancing scene was comparable to the famous "scissor dance" clip in "Pulp Fiction".
But in fact, this dance was made up by Qin Hao himself, based on the action of the second uncle of his hometown holding him in the house when he was a child.
On the day of the shooting, Qin Hao used all his strength to jump, as much as possible to be as windy and exaggerated as possible. It is this dance that makes director Wang Xiaoshuai remember, and 14 years later, he chose to reproduce it again in "Long Days on Earth".
It was also this play that brought Qin Hao to the Cannes Film Festival for the first time, and that time, he did not dare to "make a second time" on the red carpet.
"The Mystery of the Floating City"
Adapted from the Tianya hot post "See How I Clean Up the Mean Man and Little Three", it is also the first work of Lou Ye's unbanned director.
Qin Hao plays the cheating man Qiao Yongzhao. Lou Ye said that Qin Hao's preciousness lies not in "acting", but in "mixing".
Qin Hao is a person who mixes life and plays a "scumbag" with ease.
In the play, Qiao Yongzhao has 2 wives at the same time, and 2 women have given him 1 son and 1 daughter respectively. And he is also contaminated with little three, little four, and even one-night stands.
When Qin Hao first got the script of this play, there were only 6 scenes. He spent 3 days talking to Lou Ye for 30 times.
The scumbag Qiao Yongzhao portrayed by Qin Hao did not open his teeth and dance his claws, and even a little bit liked girls. Qin Hao's fans commented that his role in the play was "sexy garbage".
I have to say that most of the roles played by Qin Hao have a "sexy and garbage" shadow.
"A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind"
In 2012, there was a violent anti-demolition incident in Xian Village, Guangzhou, and the armed police fought with the villagers, and many old Guangzhou still remember it.
In the middle of the towering skyscrapers, there are dense and mottled low houses, and the strong contrast makes people smell the complex meaning.
The inspiration and story of this movie came from here. Qin Hao plays Jiang Zicheng, a wealthy real estate businessman.
Another bad sexy character.
Sin Village near Zhujiang New Town
Jiang Zicheng colluded with officials to take a valuable piece of demolition land. But he did not expect that his lover Lian Ayun, who had been accompanying him in poverty, would report him.
Facing Lian Ayun, who had been pierced in the chest by scissors and did not seem to be completely dead, he calmly poured a small bottle of gasoline on her. The lighter was lit for a long time and finally lit.
A raging fire burned on the lover's body, and the camera focused on Jiang Zicheng's face.
The light of the fire flashed on his face, first tears, then a triumphant smile on the corner of his mouth, and a trace of viciousness in his eyes. The vicious laughter and the spilled tears did not contradict each other at all.
Qin Hao's expression was too accurate and too shocking.
When this film was completed, Yi Nengjing still had three days to produce. Qin Hao flew to the United States immediately after killing Qingqing, so that he did not miss the first meeting with his daughter.
"Sand Sea"
The starting point of Qin Hao's web drama is not a good drama, but it makes Qin Hao controversial. This is a real judgment of the appearance of large-scale book fans.
Compared with Lou Ye's movie, the Wu evil in "Sand Sea" makes people addicted, fierce, decisive and haunted, all of which make Qin Hao perform.
Many viewers never recognized Qin Hao, to be conquered by his acting skills, precisely because of this drama.
02
If Qin Hao had not been an actor, he might have been in politics or business. Now we might see him running a real estate in reality.
He was born into a wealthy family of civil servants. From birth, his family had his future in place: graduating from the best high school in the province and studying at Auckland Business School in New Zealand.
After returning to China, whether it is talking or learning, it will develop in the direction of successful people, engaged in politics or business, and choose at will.
But the heavens did not go according to man's wishes. A movie in 1995 completely disrupted Qin Hao's life script.
Jiang Wen's "Sunny Days" fascinated him (some versions say that he was influenced by "Beijingers in New York"). In the film, Ma Xiaojun, a boy living in the army compound, is the same age as Qin Hao, who was 17 years old at the time.
Interestingly, in the movie, Ma Xiaojun is obsessed with Milan (Played by Tranquility), who is older than himself, and outside the scene, Qin Hao marries Yi Nengjing, who is ten years older than himself. In "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves", Tranquility defeats Yi Nengjing.
Sunshine, sweat, red, violence, swear words, fights, this hormone-spilling movie makes Qin Hao want to move.
"I'm going to take the middle class." Qin Hao consulted with his parents.
Qin Hao's parents did not say that they disagreed, but said: "If you take the road of an actor, the eight generations of the ancestors will not be able to help you." ”
Qin Hao felt that he did not need the help of the eight generations of his ancestors. After making up his mind, Qin Hao switched from science to liberal arts.
Unexpectedly, he really successfully entered the 1996 Chinese opera acting class, which was a Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger: Liu Ye, Cao Jun, Zhang Ziyi, Zeng Li, Hu Jing, Qin Hailu... It was all his classmates.
Class of 96 Acting Scum Class Notice of Class Suspension
What is even more coincidental is that Qin Hao's partner in the third test is Yuan Quan, and 12 years later, she became the wife of Xia Yu, played by Ma Xiaojun.
At that time, Qin Hao was still very sorry that Yuan Quan's "outflow" was a pity, but this was all an afterthought.
In school, Qin Hao became a high-cold bully with personality. Especially under the background of Zhang Ziyi and Liu Ye, Qin Hao is particularly prominent.
He especially listened to his teachers.
At the beginning, the teacher Chang Li warned them: "Unless Spielberg finds them, no one should go to film." What to go to, rest assured that what you have behind you is money. The key is what kind of person you want to be. "Qin Hao is enshrined as Guigao, honestly studying and rehearsing dramas in school.
In the year of graduation, the three major dramas of the 96th class, he was all male protagonists, and people gave him the nickname "Qin Yimou".
Qin Hao, who is in his 20s, thinks in his mind that lao tzu will have money in the future. In the future, at least I will act in Zhang Yimou's films.
Fate tricked people, the obedient Qin Hao did not play Zhang Yimou's play, but the disobedient Zhang Ziyi did.
In 1998, Zhang Yimou selected Zhang Ziyi, who was nineteen years old and still in his junior year, to star in "My Father and Mother". Zhang Ziyi didn't even think about it, so he left the teacher's words behind and followed Zhang into the group.
Immediately after that, Liu Ye also entered the group.
He played on the pitch, sweating profusely, stinking sweat, and looking back and smiling. Huo Jianqi, who was passing by, was attracted by this cute smile. Liu Ye was pulled to shoot "That Man That Mountain That Dog".
These two people did not have time to rehearse because of filming, and at the end of the term, they saw that their homework could not be completed, and they were anxious to stomp their feet.
Liu Ye was even forced to run to Shichahai in the middle of the night and cry loudly.
Above: Stills from "My Father and Mother"
Below: Stills from "The Man That Mountain, that Dog."
At this time, the difference between good students and poor students can be seen.
This kind of final homework is really a piece of cake for Qin Hao, a scholar. He often finds time to help classmates who don't have time to write homework.
Of the 8 pieces of work at the end of the period, 6 of the 8 were handed in by Qin Hao.
The teachers also liked Qin Hao, although he was not the best looking, he was very smart.
"Once we did acting exercises, the theme was to watch movies, Qin Hao and Zhang Ziyi played couples. The movie theater put a horror movie, acting to a place of horror, Qin Hao suddenly and nervously threw himself into Zhang Ziyi's arms. Teacher Chang Li recalled, "This time, the students and teachers laughed." ”
This kind of picture is seen a lot now, but at that time, no one dared to act like this.
Qin Hao was also very satisfied with his divine stroke, and now that he was graduating, he even saw his bright future days.
But it turned out that Qin Hao, who had not yet had a plastic surgery at this time, miscalculated.
03
In 2000, "My Father and Mother" won the 55th Berlin Silver Bear Award, and Zhang Ziyi wore a red belly pocket and followed Zhang Yimou to the stage to receive the award.
After the two received the award and stepped down, Zhang Yimou commented on Zhang Ziyi: Ambition is written on the face.
But this does not affect Zhang Ziyi's film contract, once graduated from school, Zhang Ziyi partnered with Zhou Runfa and Jackie Chan respectively, acting in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Peak Moment" and "Ten Faces Ambush". Talent and hard work made her shine brightly and became the brightest new star in China.
In 2001, Liu Ye, a scumbag who cried with Zhang Ziyi and begged his brother to rehearse the play, also won the Golden Horse Film Emperor.
But this is not what makes Qin Hao the most red-eyed and angry, the most infuriating thing is that after graduating in 2000, the Central Experimental Drama Theater chose Zhang Ziyi and Qin Hailu.
After acting in dramas for 4 years in school, Qin Hao, the male protagonist who was also regarded as "Qin Yimou", was turned away.
He couldn't figure it out: "Isn't it called a drama theater?" They haven't acted in a play. ”
In fact, in the years of Chinese opera, Qin Hao was not without opportunities.
No, at the beginning of the school year, an assistant director of the North Film Studio found their class and took pictures of the students one by one with a camera.
Qin Hao was not happy to see it, and went forward to ask, "What are you doing?" “
The assistant director leaned out from behind the camera and said, "I'll take a picture and leave you with information." ”
Qin Hao was even more upset when he heard it: "Hey, don't shoot me, don't make my photos fly all over the sky, I don't need information." ”
Many years later, Qin Hao met the assistant director again, only to learn that he had missed the opportunity because of this photo. And this opportunity is "Lan Yu", let Liu Ye hold back the Golden Horse Film Emperor Trophy of "Lan Yu".
The assistant director said: "You are the best in your class, whoever takes pictures can do it, you will not let you shoot." Before Guan Jinpeng filmed "Lan Yu", asked me to find someone, I said that there is a person named Qin Hao is quite suitable, but I can't find your photo. ”
Fragment of "Blue Universe"
Qin Hao is the stone, and his parents' consistent enlightenment has made his brain unable to turn around in these things.
The theater didn't want him, and he thought, "I'm not going to play with you."
After pondering for half a day, Qin Hao planned to go to the TV station to be a host, but when he inquired, he wanted to sit in class and left without turning his head.
When Zhang Ziyi was red all over the world, Qin Hao was dangling there. No drama for 3 years, no income for 3 years, no urging him at home, and no hunger in Beijing.
In the 3rd year, there was also a strange thing:
A strange phone call came, and the person over there asked, "Are you Qin Hao?" Are you still filming? “
Qin Hao hurriedly replied, "Pat pat." “
I didn't think about it and said, "Oh, if you want to shoot, I'll call you again when I have a chance." "Snap, just hang up."
So far, Qin Hao couldn't figure out who made this call or why.
"If a person does not lack money since childhood, then he will not do anything for money." This is Qin Hao's agent's summary of him many years later.
Therefore, during this period, Qin Hao's main task was to "play", and there were a bunch of stupid children around him who were doing business who liked to play with him.
"Because I'm just playing!" During that time, Qin Hao either went out to party or pondered at home, until he figured out the matter of plastic surgery.
It was 2003, and there were nearly 1.3 billion people in China, and fewer than 1 million had plastic surgery. (Data source: "Plastic Surgery and Beauty Market Status Analysis and Survey")
Even the most enlightened parents were shocked.
In 2000, Qin Hao, who played Liang Shanbo in the graduation drama of Chinese opera, did not have plastic surgery at that time
Qin Hao's face shape completely inherited his parents, and his parents did not expect that Qin Hao could figure out how to figure out the matter of plastic surgery.
But from childhood to adulthood, Qin's mother believed that as long as Qin Hao liked it, she would not interfere too much.
This optimistic and transparent old lady can be seen in the recent variety show "Mother-in-law and Mother".
After some struggle, Qin's mother decided to support her son.
The left 1 and right 1 are Qin Hao's father and mother, respectively
According to the analysis of professionals, Qin Hao may have done bone cutting, hitting slimming face injections to eliminate the masseter muscles, cutting double eyelids, fine-tuning the tip of the nose, and straightening his teeth.
In short, it costs a lot of money.
Someone had plastic surgery and put himself in the pit, but Qin Hao spent the money worth it. The new Qin Hao was born, and his path as an actor was about to usher in new hopes.
This hope appeared in a nightclub.
04
After "changing his face", Qin Hao was in a good mood and ran to a nightclub to drink with a group of friends. In the midst of the red wine, someone introduced him: "This is Wang Xiaoshuai." ”
"Hey, hello! I've seen your movie and loved it! Qin Hao, who was carrying a small backpack, disappeared into the noise after speaking.
Within a few seconds, Qin Hao appeared again, yelling at him: Drink, drink! As soon as Wang Xiaoshuai looked up after drinking, the person disappeared again, and Qin Hao twisted in the crowd like this, one arm flicking around with the music, looking like he didn't care about himself.
That night, Wang Xiaoshuai did not remember Qin Hao, only his nickname "Little Backpack".
This young man, who did not know where he came from, had a generous hand, and he could buy thousands of pieces of money in a circle in the store. When Wang Xiaoshuai saw him again, he still carried a very fashionable bag. People who know him only know that he is a classmate of Zhang Ziyi and Liu Ye, and as for what he has acted, no one knows.
When selecting actors for "Qinghong", the assistant director said to Wang Xiaoshuai: "How do you see Qin Hao? ”
Wang Xiaoshuai replied, "Who is Qin Hao?" ”
The assistant director quickly reminded: "It's that little backpack." ”
Wang Xiaoshuai thought about it, this boy came and went without a trace, Shinto, and really had the appearance of a young man who was idle.
Therefore, without even an audition, this Qin Hao, who was twisting his body while drinking, finally received his first play after graduation.
4 years without drama, a film went to Cannes to walk the red carpet, Qin Hao was happy, but also nervous, even did not know what to wear.
Zhang Ziyi, an old classmate, has enough experience walking the red carpet, sends him his own brand shoes, and lends him clothes to match.
This was the first time That Qin Hao felt "wearing new clothes and being respected", which was even cooler than spending thousands of yuan in one go in the store!
"When I got there, I was a little dizzy, and everyone stood up and applauded. I thought, it turned out that we were such a good film, respected by so many people, and then my mentality changed, no, I must win the award, and then the director said, Oh, you don't know who it is. ”
The director was right, Qin Hao did not win the award. In 2005, "Green and Red" won the "Jury Prize" at the Cannes Film Festival, which is not outstanding. The movie emperor was replaced by Tommy Lee Joan, the male protagonist of "The Three Funerals of Escada"
Scepter.
In addition, Qin Hao has been nominated for cannes film emperor four times and nominated for three major European awards seven times.
This trip to Cannes began to make Qin Hao secretly compete with himself in his heart: there is a place in the world that respects movies so much, and I will only shoot scenes that I think I can go to the Cannes Film Festival in the future.
"Someone cares about fame and making money, he doesn't care, he doesn't lack that. He wanted to experience the supreme honor and respect of the film. "Wang Xiaoshuai understands Qin Hao, and he also advises Qin Hao to act what he should act, and tv dramas can also be performed, so that people know you!"
Qin Hao was biased. But instead of going to the nightclub, he watched countless pirated DVDs at home.
Qin Hao wanted to be a star, more than when he first graduated. He fantasized about being recognized by fans countless times at film festivals, without signs, without shouting, just nodding and smiling, reaching out to say hello.
Mr. Qin said he was fascinated by the feeling of being respected. So much so that the second time he went to Cannes in 2009, he shouted the words on the red carpet: "The stars are coming." ”
05
Qin Hao originally thought that this trip to Cannes should also be quite influential in China. It was 2005, and it was four years before Weibo officially launched, and people were used to reading entertainment headlines in newspaper entertainment pages and portals.
But when he opened the newspaper, the biggest report he saw was: "An actress was secretly filmed when she was pregnant"?
He was confused again, and he didn't even know what the point of his filming was.
He began to pick the script like a cleanliness fetish, and after filming "Qinghong", he did not shoot a drama for 2 years, and acted in a movie with Dong Jie in 2006. After another 3 years, he finally waited for Lou Ye.
Venus asked him: "Why do directors who make literary films like to shoot with you so much?" What's the point of seeing you? “
Qin Hao said: "Cheap."
In fact, Lou Ye looked for him not only because of cheapness, but because of his walking posture.
The first time Lou Ye saw Qin Hao, he saw that he pressed the brim of his hat particularly low, which had a mysterious charm. "Without squinting, the two hands are shaking back and forth softly, lazy young master Fan."
"When he speaks, he often walks around in front of you and walks until you faint." Jiang Cheng in "Spring Breeze Drunken Night" should also go this way, Lou Ye thought.
In "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", he took the sense of ease of this cross-dressed character appropriately, and the disgust was natural.
This subtle sense of proportion makes people have to keep a close eye on every inch of the muscle on his face and carefully observe his every expression.
In The Hidden Corner, we can feel this kind of detail. When you look at Zhang Dongsheng's left half of his face and his right half separately, it is two conflicting emotions.
His viciousness and innocence can be transformed in an instant. There is a creepy chill that spreads from the play, there is not a single line, but it is frightening.
Qin Hao himself said that after filming "Spring Breeze Drunken Night", he understood the essence of some performances.
But it didn't make his dream of stardom come true, and the red carpet said, "Dude, who are you?" "Completely beat him back to the reality of the fourth-line male actors who made literary films."
Returning from Cannes, Qin Hao signed into Wang Jinghua's company, breaking his previous insistence. Shooting 6 plays a year, let alone going to the film festival, the general audience can't watch it.
Of course, the facts have also proved that he Qin Hao is not anything that can be played.
"When did I know I had to stop?" When someone came to me to play the secretary of the provincial party committee. Qin Hao said that he finally decided to terminate the contract with the company.
Qin Hao did not fire up in the way he imagined, but instead gained some attention on the "partial door".
In 2011, Qin Hao was scolded by netizens for his inappropriate remarks. (What specific remarks are not convenient to write here)
In 2014, Qin Hao Yi Nengjing announced his sister-brother relationship. An actor who believes in the supremacy of acting, and a 52-year-old woman who chases her dreams with hot dance, she has made a vow to keep for life.
People who know Qin Hao joke about him: this relationship has made you officially change from an "artist" to a gossip version of the star.
After 14 years of groping and fighting, Qin Hao can finally be regarded as a "star" who has made headlines.
06
"I went to Cannes so many times, you don't give me an interview, I made a subject and gave me headlines, what is the play?" Is it that I am red? At the 64th Berlin Film Festival, Qin Hao and Yi Nengjing clasped their fingers and their love affair was open.
Qin Hao's fans are not happy, how can the male god of literature and art in their hearts marry such a female star?
Yi Nengjing's fans are also not happy, because when the love affair is open, it is the release of "Floating City Mystery", and everyone believes that Qin Hao is a scumbag, a big scumbag.
Quarrel with Yi Nengjing on the variety show
But what does it matter? The two of them looked at each other in the right eye. Speaking of which, Yi Nengjing is indeed in line with Qin Hao's aesthetic.
Some media have asked Qin Hao before: What type of girl do you like? He said: "I like girls with fair skin and big breasts. "The agency and fans are anxious, you are a literary god, what do you say!"
Qin Hao spread his hands: "Hey, you said I like this, there's nothing to hide." ”
After marrying Yi Nengjing, Qin Hao was more like a changed person. Accompany Yi Nengjing to the variety show, accompany Yi Nengjing to live broadcast, and also accompany Yi Nengjing to perform bad movies.
"She said let me accompany, I will accompany, I think she should support the first part." But after acting in "I Am the Queen", Qin Hao said firmly: "I don't want to act in movies with her anymore." ”
For movies, he has more and more of his own insistence. In recent years, Qin Hao has begun to continuously output films with good reputation, such as "Hotpot Hero" in 2016, "The Legend of the Demon Cat" in 2017, and "A Cloud Made of Rain in the Wind" in 2019.
But to be honest, he also acted in a lot of bad films, and the recently broadcast "Splendid South Song" has a reputation. In particular, frequent participation in variety shows has made Qin Hao receive a lot of criticism.
A good actor, to have a sense of mystery. Exposing real people too much will increase the difficulty for the audience to enter the characters.
But Qin Hao did not believe in this set, and he was the first to sign up for "Brother Who Cut Through Thorns".
In the movie "Sunny Days", which prompted Qin Hao to embark on the path of an actor, there is such a line: "I can't distinguish between illusion and reality, and it is even more difficult to hide the desire in my heart." ”
I couldn't tell which one was the real Qin Hao, but I could feel his desire. He was no longer just Zhang Ziyi Liu Ye's classmate, no longer just Yi Nengjing's husband. He wanted to become an actor Qin Hao.
He said: I dare say that no one can smash me with money now.
Some people like him, and some people hate him.
This is the price of red. But the price of red is by no means limited to that.
The biggest price is this: you may never be the person you want to be again. After the desire is amplified, you will have a hard time controlling it.
I don't know what kind of mood Qin Hao was in now when he saw the obedient scholar who didn't want to take pictures. I don't know if what it looks like now is what Qin Hao really wants to be.
