In 1986, on the set of "Journey to the West", Zhao Xinpei shouted at director Yang Jie: "Don't let me wear pants, I don't shoot." Yang Jie coaxed for half a day, but Zhao Xinpei also made a request, and Yang Jie cried and laughed after hearing it.
Zhao Xinpei played a red child in "Journey to the West", unlike many "awkward" child stars, and now Zhao Xinpei makes them envious.
Zhao Xinpei was born in Beijing in 1977, his parents are technicians, and his work is busy.
When he was a child, Zhao Xinpei was lost at his grandmother's house, and his grandmother's family lived in Wangfujing, next to a kindergarten, Zhao Xinpei was slightly older, and he was sent to the kindergarten.
When Zhao Xinpei was 5 years old, a crew went to kindergarten to select small actors.
Zhao Xinpei, who was in the senior class, looked like a tiger, and went straight up and snatched away the little daughter's pistol.
As soon as the crew saw that this child was quite bold, he was there, so Zhao Xinpei starred in "Thrive".
Because the child was small, his mother accompanied her the whole time.
It just so happens that the current wife of the six-year-old child, Yu Hong, was making a scene note in the crew at the time, and she liked Zhao Xinpei's child, so the contact was a little more.
Three years later, Yu Hong went to the "Journey to the West" crew to do a scene record.
In 1985, when the "Journey to the West" crew filmed the scene of "Red Child", they needed to find a cute child to play, and Yu Hong thought of Zhao Xinpei.
At that time, "Journey to the West" was broadcast while filming, and Zhao Xinpei had already seen it on TV, and he thought it must be very interesting, and he was very happy to agree.
Yu Hong led Zhao Xinpei to director Yang Jie's home, singing and dancing, not afraid of the stage at all, director Yang Jie suddenly settled.
However, Yang Jie did not expect that when the official shooting, Zhao Xinpei did not cooperate.
It turned out that, according to the requirements, the red child could only wear a belly pocket, a red cloak, and a bare buttocks.
Zhao Xinpei, who was already eight years old, felt too embarrassed, and in the face of the belly pocket sent by the staff, he always did not answer, and said:
"I'm so old, my bare ass is too indecent, besides, if the girls in our class see it, how humiliating!"
Yang Jie said seductively:
"The red child puts on his pants, even if it is still a red child, Tang Monk will definitely not be deceived, then this drama will not be filmed!"
Yang Jie tirelessly persuaded Zhao Xinpei for half a day, and later, the situation finally turned around, and Zhao Xinpei agreed, but put forward a request:
"Bare butts are fine, but when shooting, there can't be women, then I will be shy." If you don't say yes, I certainly won't be able to shoot it! ”
The child's innocent and simple words amused Yang Jie at once.
She leaned down and pretended to be serious and asked, "Then do I, the female director, have to avoid it?" ”
Zhao Xinpei was stunned for a while when asked, groaned for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "Only you are the exception, other women are definitely not ok." ”
Then the crew found a large group of kindergarten children to give him courage, playing the crab soldier crab general of the red child, which has the classic bridge section in the play.
He said, "Are you a rescuer invited by the monkeys?" It swept the whole network and became a network term used by netizens to make fun.
However, Zhao Xinpei became popular with the role of a red child, and since then he has become a "child star", and many directors and producers have also invited him to shoot.
However, Zhao Xinpei did not care about the entertainment circle, but was interested in computer technology, he said: "As soon as the summer vacation ended, the film was also filmed, just when Shijia Hutong Primary School opened a computer class, I thought this was fun, and I plunged into it." ”
"A computer mistake at first sight is a lifetime."
Even in junior high school, the director of the entertainment industry still wanted to ask him to act, but he said: "I am really not interested, or the computer is interesting." ”
So he quit the entertainment circle when he was popular and became an ordinary IT man, but he did not expect his persistence to become a bully.
In this way, Zhao Xinpei's love for computers allowed him to be admitted to the Computer College of Peking University, and he was also escorted into the Chinese Academy of Sciences and became a doctor.
In 2005, after graduating with a doctorate, Zhao Xinpei has also been engaged in the computer industry.
Although he did not become an actor, he relied on his love, was very successful in computers, opened his own company, and now he is also a big boss worth over 100 million, with a successful career and a happy family.
Now Zhao Xinpei is more than 40 years old and has become an uncle, and everyone says that the red child has become an old uncle.
Zhao Xinpei didn't care at all: "Anyway, I don't rely on acting, it doesn't matter if I become an uncle." ”
Many people feel that Zhao Xinpei should not quit the show business circle, if he did not quit, he may already be a star at the level of the film emperor.
But Zhao Xinpei did not regret it in the slightest: "I know what I want, I don't pursue those things." ”
@Three is not old
Throughout Zhao Xinpei's life, he gave up the opportunity to enter the entertainment circle, gave up the interests that were temporarily in hand, respected the child's inner choice, and had to praise Zhao Xinpei's parents in educating their children.
Do you think Zhao Xinpei's life choices are right or wrong?
