He is dry and thin, less than one meter and six meters tall, with a short chin, large teeth, and a large head and small features...
Such a person do you dare to believe that he is a famous actor in the entertainment industry?
Indeed, as long as it comes to the entertainment industry, what comes out of people's eyes must be those handsome men and beautiful women who are eye-catching.
But it is such an actor, Ju Xingmao, who has created the miracle of the entertainment industry with his own efforts.
He debuted as a child star at the age of 9, but because of his strange appearance, he ran the dragon suit for more than 20 years to usher in a career turnaround.
Today, he has become a famous director and married a beautiful wife.
What makes him so "change his life against the odds"?
Is it supported by high people or is it fate?
At the age of 9, he was electrocuted and has had the dream of being an actor ever since
In 1981, in a small county town in Shanxi, Ju Xingmao was born.
His parents were ordinary farmers who lived on a few acres of thin land in their families every year.
In addition, the idea of preferring sons to daughters at that time was still relatively serious, so the birth of Ju Xingmao made the family feel very happy.
The father looked at his infant son and named him Xingmao.
I hope he can grow up healthy and strong and become a man who stands tall in the sky.
When he was a child, he also looked white and fat as his family expected.
The neighbors saw him, and none of them did not praise him for his cuteness.
But by the time he was 3 years old, everything had changed dramatically.
His body began to grow thinner and thinner, his teeth gradually grew into fangs, and his already small eyes appeared prominent on a large face.
At first, the family did not care, thinking that he was too naughty and could not keep up with nutrition, so it led to thinning.
He even naively thought, "It will be good to grow up later."
Unfortunately, instead of doing what his family wanted, Juxingmao grew up more barbaric.
When the neighbors saw the child again, they all changed from praising him as "cute" to laughing at his "sharp-billed monkey cheeks".
The parents heard the whispers behind the neighbors and were very sad.
When he went to school, his classmates also nicknamed him "Rat Essence".
Even the teacher ignored him.
At this time, Ju Xingmao's parents wanted to intervene to improve their son's appearance, and they were already lacking in skills.
Fortunately, Ju Xingmao himself has a cheerful personality, and he does not go to his heart for those ugly words spoken by outsiders.
In 1990, Ju Xingmao, who was in the third grade, was jumping home, but he was attracted by a lively place on the side of the road.
It turned out that director Li Shaohong was planning to shoot the movie "Bloody Morning", and set the selection of the scene in the village where Ju Xingmao was located.
Before the start of filming, the other actors have been fixed, but the role of the "satisfaction" of the young actors has given Li Shaohong a headache.
In order not to delay the filming schedule, the crew issued an invitation to the local area to invite the 8 to 10-year-old boy to audition.
But picking and choosing did not find the right person.
Ju Xingmao, who meets the age requirements, heard about it and also went to participate in the audition.
But children of the same age all followed him and laughed at him: "We can't do it, let alone you."
But Ju Xingmao walked over with a smile as if he hadn't heard.
Li Shaohong saw him at a glance and thought, "Isn't this the satisfaction I want to find?"
Therefore, Li Shaohong walked over and brought Ju Xingmao to the crew and arranged for him to audition.
Unexpectedly, the audition process was exceptionally smooth.
Li Shaohong gave this hard-won opportunity to Ju Xingmao.
For a moment, Ju Xingmao seemed to open the door to a new world.
Although it is only a small supporting role, Juxingmao also takes it very seriously.
The high-intensity shooting operation, even some adults can hardly support it, but Ju Xingmao has never shouted "tired".
The people in the same crew are full of affection for this strange-looking little boy.
During that time, Ju Xingmao heard the most praise in his life.
He realized: "Only when filming, you can have the opportunity to be yourself".
However, there is no unbroken feast in the world, and after the filming of "Bloody Morning", the crew should leave.
Because Ju Xingmao still had to study, he naturally couldn't leave with him.
Since then, he has become a "loner".
However, because of this experience, the seeds of being an actor and making a movie are deeply rooted in the heart of Ju Xingmao.
After decades of trial and error, with little success
After that, Ju Xingmao looked at the entrance of the village every day, looking forward to the arrival of the next crew.
For three consecutive years, no new crew came, and Ju Xingmao never stopped wandering at the mouth of the village.
Neighbors laughed at his stupidity: "I want to be a star and I want to go crazy."
The family also knows: "If you want to be famous in the entertainment industry, your son's appearance is not good", but there is no way to take him.
Finally, three years later, Ju Xingmao heard that another crew had come to Shanxi, but it was in the city of Shanxi Province.
Excitedly, Ju Xingmao ran home and told his family that he was going to the provincial capital.
It's just that he forgot his family conditions, and it is not easy for the family to eat and wear warm, where can he get the round-trip fare?
Under the soft and hard bubble of Ju Xingmao, his parents still agreed to his request.
After coming to the crew, Ju Xingmao found the director: "I have acted in the plays directed by Li Shaohong, and I have experience."
As soon as the other party listened, it was not too difficult for him.
Not only that, the director also arranged a role for Ju Xingmao to have lines that can show his face, "Brother Dou".
And this film and television drama is "Cannon Hit Double Lights" starring Serenity, and has also appeared at the Hawaii Film Festival.
Because there are many scenes, Ju Xingmao began to be busy thinking about the scenes every day.
Also because of the long time he stayed in the crew, he and the people in the same crew were familiar.
As long as he is idle, Ju Xingmao will go to them to inquire: "You are all from big places, tell me, how can you become an actor?"?
When others think that he is a fool and dreams, they joke with him: "Then you must go to Beijing, there are many opportunities there."
The person who said this must not have imagined that the words he said would be "unintentionally planted in the willows" in the future.
After Ju Xingmao heard the reply, he deeply remembered the word "Beijing" in his heart.
After graduating from junior high school, because his family was poor, Ju Xingmao gave up the opportunity to go to high school.
At the same time, he also told his parents that he wanted to go to Beijing to pursue his dreams.
When his parents saw that he was embarrassed, they told him: "If you can't get mixed up, we will leave you land in your hometown, and when you come back to farm, you will have a rice bowl that can make a living."
In this way, the little teenager picked up a simple bag and firmly embarked on the road to pursue his dreams.
When I first arrived in Beijing, because I didn't have much money in my hands, Juxingmao could only rent a cheap basement.
Old to the point of creaking wooden doors, a few stone bricks, a plank of wood was all his furniture.
The damp, dark basement could not shine a single light all day long, just like ju Xingmao's heart was full of confusion at this time, and he did not know where to go.
In order to save money, Juxingmao often made up steamed buns and pickles.
Sometimes even three meals and two meals.
When going out to find the crew to audition, Ju Xingmao simply drank water outside until the water was full.
It is precisely in this way that he, who should have grown a body, was malnourished for a long time, and finally became what he is now.
But even though his life had been so miserable that he had never cared for him.
When he went to the crew, the director would directly reject his audition on the grounds that he was strange and ugly.
Even if some directors agreed to his audition, it was to insult him:
"You are not suitable for development in the entertainment industry, you should go to crosstalk, directly do not need you to play ugly",
"There is no job bowl for you in the entertainment industry."
During that time, living in the basement, not eating enough, and not wearing warm clothes became his norm;
Being teased and insulted by directors and actors is also his daily routine.
But he never thought of giving up, and if he couldn't be an actor, he would go to the crew to do chores.
In the crew, good gangsters can earn rent and meal money, and you can also see how the actors act.
If you're lucky, you'll also get a few dragon-set roles.
In addition to the fact that some people in the crew who worship high and low will often bully him, it is also a good errand.
The group performances of the same crew could not see his situation, so they often took some delicious food to help him.
This is also the only bit of warmth he has felt since he came to Beijing.
When he came back, someone suggested to him: "You should go to film school to study specifically, maybe there is still a way out."
Such suggestions made Ju Xingmao suddenly see the light, and in the following days, he began to buy books and teach himself theory.
With a sharp mind, he successfully passed the written test, but was brushed off during the interview.
At this time, all his thoughts were gray.
For the first time, I wanted to go home.
It wasn't until he saw a strange actor who was as frustrated as himself, but could still encourage him not to give up, that Ju Xingmao regained his strength.
In 1999, Ju Xingmao met the crew of "How Much Love Can Be Repeated".
The director gave him the role of "Lin Yuchun".
With his excellent acting skills and smooth demeanor, he began to emerge in the eyes of the director, and the audience also remembered this actor like a rat.
When the internal entertainment began to blow the wind of costume dramas, Ju Xingmao seized the opportunity.
In 2001, he participated in the filming of "Smiling Proud of the River", completing his first perfect debut in a costume drama.
It was also this time that made him leave a deep impression on Guo Jingyu's heart.
Maxima finally met Bole and became a household name ugly star
In 2003, Juxingmao ushered in another turning point in its career.
At that time, Guo Jingyu was upgraded from a director to a director, and when planning the shooting of "Brothers Like Brothers and Sisters", he immediately thought of Ju Xingmao.
The following year, when filming "I Am Not a Hero", he once again invited Ju Xingmao to participate in the performance.
The cooperation between Ju Xingmao and Sun Honglei in the play made the audience can't help but shout: "Enjoy".
The thin and small figure was lifted up by Sun Honglei, just like lifting a small chicken.
After filming, Sun Honglei once praised Ju Xingmao: "The acting skills are really good, and I can act and dare to act."
Even director Guo Jingyu praised him.
Since then, Guo Jingyu and Ju Xingmao have formed a relationship of "mentor and friend".
Guo Jingyu could see the talent on Ju Xingmao's body and understand what he wanted in his heart.
Ju Xingmao will take every role given to him by Big Brother seriously, and strive not to disappoint Guo Jingyu.
The two often discuss acting skills and plots together, and Guo Jingyu will also teach Ju Xingmao what he will know.
In 2008, it was the 10th anniversary of Juxingmao's official debut.
Zhang Jingyu, who is a good friend of Gabole, specially rewrote the script "Beautiful Life" for him.
The role of "satisfaction" was added to the play, so that Ju Xingmao could make a small farewell to the "satisfaction" he had played before.
The following year, Ju Xingmao's deductive career was pushed to the top.
Because he played the role of "Color Son" in Guo Jing's "Tie Pear Flower" directed by Guo Jing, he was strongly welcomed by the audience.
Among them, the rivalry between him and Chen Shu is affectionately known as the "Beauty and the Beast" combination by the audience.
Since then, Ju Xingmao has opened up the drama road and become a fragrant feast for various crew directors to be invited.
Although they are all supporting roles, Ju Xingmao has never slackened off.
"I only pay attention to acting, and I don't care about anything else," Ju Xingmao replied truthfully in an interview.
And Guo Jingyu's help to him is far from just a career boost.
Marry a beautiful wife, become a director, and embark on the peak of life
After seeing that the career of the good brother was lagging behind, Guo Jingyu, as the eldest brother, began to introduce him to the object.
At the beginning, Ju Xingmao refused many times because of his appearance: "I look like this, I don't dare to covet other people's girls."
But under the enlightenment of Guo Jingyu, Ju Xingmao also began to look forward to starting a family.
It just so happens that in Guo Jingyu's crew, there is an actor, whether it is on the outside or inside, who is very good, she is the wife of Ju Xingmao after - Mu Xing District.
Guo Jingyu became a matchmaker.
After some contact, a good feeling developed between Juxingmao and Mouxing District.
However, Ju Xingmao did not dare to confess his heart, or the window paper that Muxing District took the initiative to puncture:
"I am interested in your talent, I am willing to associate with you",
"Besides, what two people look at together should not be appearance, but feeling, heart."
After abandoning his concerns, Ju Xingmao and Mou Xing District began to communicate.
In 2009, less than a year later, the two were married.
At that time, MuXing District was still only a small actor, and Ju Xingmao was just a little famous.
The combination of the two has been blessed by a group of friends inside and outside the circle.
Some people even quipped to Ju Xingmao: "You are really a blessing cultivated in the previous life, and you have married such a beautiful wife."
Ju Xingmao also swore to his wife: "I will definitely make good money and let you live a good life."
After being with Muxing District, Ju Xingmao finally felt that he had a family in Beijing.
After realizing that there would be no greater appearance as an actor, Ju Xingmao listened to the opinions of others and applied for the directing profession of Chinese opera.
In order to support his work, Muxing District began to retreat behind the scenes and concentrate on taking care of his daily life.
In 2012, Ju Xingmao successfully graduated from Chinese opera, at which time Guo Jingyu once again threw an olive branch at him.
The two joined forces to create a number of classics such as "Braveheart" and "Playing Dog Stick".
After this, Juxingmao had no news.
After two years of silence, Ju Xingmao returned with his own dedicated work "Soul Ferry".
The broadcast of one, two or three seasons of this TV series has won the praise of netizens.
In addition, the talented Ju Xingmao has also become the darling of CCTV.
In 2020, Ju Xingmao and Guo Jingyu joined hands to shoot the anti-epidemic film "The Most Beautiful Retrograde".
It is not only recorded by CCTV, but also broadcast in prime time.
Today's juxingmao career and family double harvest can also be regarded as the most perfect ending to the hard work of the first half of his life.
Once Juxingmao was defeated by appearance, now Juxingmao has become a face.
Everything is because he has never given up.
Although he was named "China's ugliest male star", he was also successfully remembered by the audience.
He has also been interviewed about his appearance, but his answer has made people who are now busy with plastic surgery ashamed:
"I am already grateful to my parents for giving me life.",
"I have never felt that there is anything wrong with my appearance, and there will be no so-called appearance anxiety."
Now he is hard-working, worthy of the self who once worked so hard.
