Many people may have noticed for the first time that Si Ni was in the hit drama "The First Half of My Life", she played lolo, a girl who dared to love and dare to hate. "I think it's a very happy thing that everyone can accept me as a mother of two children now."
Born in a family of actors, Si Ni has known the difference between filming and real life since she was a child, and after entering the Beijing Film Academy, she learned that acting is not just about being able to laugh and cry. Although there are still many people who can't pronounce her name, she doesn't mind, "It doesn't matter if people can't remember my name, as long as I can remember the name of the character I played, I am very happy." 」 ”
The director said that Si Meng had grown on me
In 2017, when the TV series "The First Half of My Life" was broadcast, Feng Xiaogang was deeply impressed by the little girl sipping ni who spoke a Beijing accent in the play.

During the preparatory period of "North and South", Feng Xiaogang found Si Ni, but when Si Ni heard that the role that the director wanted her to play was a mother of two children, she was a little confused, "Why did he (director Feng Xiaogang) associate me with the mother of two children? Feng Xiaogang said that the reason why she was selected was because she felt that she and Xu Fan's performance style were very similar, very grounded, and had the temperament of a virtuous wife and mother.
Since director Feng Xiaogang thinks she can play Si Meng well, Si Ni also feels that she should try it. When reading the script, she found that in addition to facing the trivialities of the family, Si Meng also had three scenes to face the woman who deliberately destroyed her family. "In fact, the first scene of the group back in Beijing was to meet Wei Lan." Wei Lan, an intern at Si Meng's husband Du Shijun (Zhu Yuchen) Company, deliberately sabotages Du Shijun's family by smearing lipstick on each other's shirts and creating fake intimate photos because he is dissatisfied with Du Shijun's refusal to give him a correction. It was a fierce opponent play, and Si Ni was a bit of a psychological burden, but Zhu Yuchen thought that this was a good thing, "If you are really familiar with it, it is not very good to act", he advised Si Ni. And what really made Si Ni put her heart down was the director's few words, "When the scene went out, director Feng Xiaogang felt that the state was particularly good, he said that he felt that Si Meng had grown on my body, and he praised me with other actors, and I was (very happy) to fly." ”
Being recognized by the director has established a lot of confidence for Si Ni, "including the second degree of creation in the later stage, the director has also given us a lot of freedom." Si Ni felt that compared with other actors, she was stained with the light of the Original Beijinger, and the rhythm and logical accent of the lines did not need to be corrected by the director, "Including many pauses in the speech when I met Wei Lan, he (Feng Xiaogang) felt that he was right. ”

In Si Ni's view, Feng Xiaogang will consider the problem from the perspective of an actor. She remembers a night scene at the home of You Shanshan (Wang Luodan), Feng Xiaogang hoped to reflect the light in the eyes of each actress, so he personally squatted on the ground to adjust the angle of the light, "Each director will come over to arrange it himself, I think the general big director will not do such a meticulous work, but the director is this age, and also squatted on the ground to personally set the lights, which really refreshed his cognition in my heart." ”

A sentence of "Who do you fall on?" he said in seconds
Because of the professional relationship of the actor, Si Ni likes to observe the people around her most in her life, and Si Meng's role inspiration comes from her mother, "Usually I like to watch the state of my parents talking, when I love, when quarrelling, many plots I will copy into the dialogue between me and Du Shijun (Zhu Yuchen). One of the scenes she remembered most was that Si Meng asked Du Shijun why there was a lipstick mark on his shirt, and Du Shijun threw his shirt on the sofa, and Si Ni added: Who did you fall on? Do you drop another one to try? "Usually at home, even if my dad puts something a little heavier, my mom will say so. I subconsciously added such a sentence at that time, and Brother Chen (Zhu Yuchen) quickly said: I did not drop you, I was instigated at once. ”
In order to play a middle-aged greasy man, he began to eat violently
In The eyes of Si Ni, Zhu Yuchen is a very dedicated actor. She revealed that Zhu Yuchen had been working out before the filming of "North and South", and when he first went to see the director, he wore a sleeveless vest, and the director looked at it from a distance: Wow, which macho man is coming? The director told Zhu Yuchen that in the play, he was going to play a middle-aged man who went out to socialize and drink a lot of wine every day, stood up with a belly, and was a little greasy. After listening to this, Zhu Yuchen went back to quickly stop the fitness and ate French fries and cream cakes every day at the shooting scene. The first time the script was read, Zhu Yuchen and Si Ni said: We two must perform fireworks.
——Life Affairs——
After watching dad's "Water Margin", he lost his temper
Si Ni's parents are actors, and her father, Si Eryong, is a first-class actor in the National Theatre of China, who has starred in many TV series such as "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Water Margin". Because of her parents, Si Ni has not lacked the opportunity to contact the camera since she was a child, occasionally leading her to shoot an advertisement or make a cameo appearance in some small roles in TV series. "At that time, I had no idea what acting was like, and people told me to do it." When she was a child, she also lost her temper because of the PLOT OF THE TV series starring her father, "I remember that time I was very angry after seeing the intimate scene of Zhang Wenyuan and Yan Boxi played by my father in "Water Margin". I was still asking my mom, aren't you angry? My mom said, "It's acting." ”
However, such a growth environment also gives Si Ni a normal heart for the profession of actor, "Actors, like thousands of professions, are a subsistence job." ”
The real idea of being an actor was in the year of Si Ni's freshman year of high school. It was the summer vacation, her mother took her to her father's crew to visit the class, the play just needed a girl to play the star chaser, Si Ni was pulled to "save the scene", "At that time, I thought acting was quite interesting, and when I went home, I began to take the pre-exam training class of acting." A classmate in the class also took her to see her friend's graduation play, and when she saw the actor bow to the audience on the stage, she was moved to cry, "I was completely moved by that atmosphere, and it was from that time on that I secretly told myself to be like them." ”
After graduating from high school, Si Ni was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy. After starting systematic performance learning, she realized that acting is actually a discipline, and it is not enough to laugh just by laughing and crying when she says.
Like most actors, in the first few years, the actor Si Ni also experienced a period of interviews and no drama to shoot, she printed herself a 6-inch photo book, knocked on the door to submit resumes in the hotel where the crew gathered, "In fact, frustration was there before graduation, when many of our classmates went out to shoot, but no one looked for me." But it's good not to look for me, and college life should be experienced well. "Haven't you thought about asking your parents for help?" "No, my parents can introduce some directors at most, but you still have to look at the skills."
It doesn't matter if I read my name or not
In 2017, Si Ni was well known to the audience with the role of Luo Luo in the hit drama "The First Half of My Life", "In retrospect, I was quite lucky to meet many noble people along the way, including director Zheng Dasheng, director Ye Jing, teacher Guo Jinglin, and then later teacher Chen Daoming, director Xiao Gang. "At that time, the crew asked her to shoot a video and needed to say a few words to the camera, she thought it was sent to the director, but later learned that it was to be sent to Chen Daoming." Because most of Luo Luo's rival actors are Teacher Chen Daoming. I remember when I first entered the group to meet Chen Daoming, she was very nervous, "Maybe I thought of Teacher Chen (Daoming) too terrible before." Unexpectedly, on the first day of entering the group, Teacher Chen Daoming took the initiative to come and shake hands with me, and I 'broke the ice' at once. ”

After "The First Half of My Life", Si Ni has successively starred in the tv series "Entrepreneurial Times" in the warm and lovely Yang Yangyang, "Long Live Life" in the full of aura Pang Wenjing and other roles, "to this day there are still viewers who think that I am such a cold and stereotypical person as Pang Wenjing in life." However, there are still many viewers who don't know how chuō's name is pronounced, but she doesn't seem to mind, "It doesn't matter if you can't remember my name, as long as you can remember the character's name, I'm very happy." 」 ”
