Braces, glasses, weed-like hair, chapped lips that have never been coated with lipstick, and the only advantage is the high-achieving students at prestigious universities.
Such a "strange and ugly" role, but in the beauty of the pile counterattack, transformed into a large company CEO, but also won the love of the domineering president.
In 2008, Li Xinru, who relied on the fire of Mango Station's "Ugly Girl Invincible", chose to withdraw from the circle after 8 years, what did she experience?
01
In fact, Li Xinru is a big beauty like a fake bag.
Born in 1988 in Lanzhou, Gansu Province, Li Xinru was admitted to the Dance Department of the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts at the age of 10 with her beautiful appearance and excellent tongzigong dance skills.
In 2007, with a beautiful and unworldly temperament, he stood out in the selection activity of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and ranked among the top five in the dai yu group.
In 2008, he was selected by the crew of "Baolian Lantern Prequel" and partnered with famous actors Jiao Enjun and Liu Xiaoqing to play the most beautiful fairy Chang'e fairy in the legend.
It can be seen from this that Li Xinru's appearance is absolutely at the top level in the show business circle.
Who knows, with the popularity of a series of inspirational romantic comedies "Ugly Girl Invincible" launched by Mango Satellite TV in 2008, the ugly girl Lin Invincible in the play instantly frightened everyone as soon as she appeared.
From looks to conversation, to dressing up, as long as it is something that is related to ladylike beauty, Lin Wudi has nothing on him.
In addition to studying well and having a clever head, Lin Invincible, played by Li Xinru, gives people the deepest impression of being ugly.
For the needs of the role, the big beauty Lin Xinru does not hesitate to sacrifice her appearance, fatten up and dress up ugly, and uses a nonsensical treasure playing funny performance style to interpret the ugly girl Lin Invincible who is struggling for life with great life tension.
This is also too subverting the impression that Li Xinru once left on people, which is the soft and weak, poetic Lin sister?
How could it be the Chang'e Fairy who did not eat human fireworks that the Second Master Brother Marshal Tiancang remembered every day?
Who knows, it is this drama that makes Li Xinru explode in the entertainment circle.
This drama is the first Mary Sue drama in China to "overbearing president falls in love with me", which vividly interprets the counterattack road of ordinary small people, and also vividly shows and satisfies the beautiful vision that every ordinary person is destined to fail to achieve in real life.
Its small character image close to the common people, and the life scenes and details settings with a strong sense of substitution, make the general public have a deep resonance, and instantly let Lin Invincible enter the hearts of the vast number of TV viewers.
In the play, the strange and ugly but kind talented woman Lin Invincible, let the beautiful actor Li Xinru, relying on the successful setting of the role and his excellent acting skills of hanging a number of traffic stars, killed a blood road in the beautiful and cloudy showbiz circle, and successfully entered the top circle of the showbiz circle at that time, paving the first step for the subsequent acting road.
With the strong wind of "Ugly Girl Invincible", Li Xinru has successively received top production contracts, and her dream of becoming a first-class celebrity in the show business circle is just around the corner.
02
There is a common phenomenon in the show business circle, the role played by the actor is half the sky, but the actor himself has been tepid.
Even because the role played in the later stage is not brilliant, it will be accused of acting skills.
As a result, there are fewer and fewer plays, and the roles are getting smaller and smaller, so that they are gradually forgotten.
Unfortunately, Lin Xinru fell into this strange circle.
Following the explosion of the first season of "Ugly Girl Invincible" in 2008, Mango Satellite TV took advantage of the victory to pursue.
In the two years from 2009 to 2010, the second and third seasons of "Ugly Girl Invincible" and the big ending "Ugly Girl Invincible Perfect Season" were released consecutively.
For a moment, the character Lin Invincible in the play swept the screen.
The image of the ugly girl Lin Invincible with braces, large glasses and weeds on her head is deeply rooted in the hearts of every TV audience, but the name of the actor Li Xinru is almost no one remembers, let alone is recognized by TV viewers on the screen.
At that time, the network was not so developed, and people's cognition of actors mainly came from the roles they played, and then through offline publicity, the roles in the play and the actors in reality could be unified.
Unfortunately, in order to maintain the promotion effect of the invincibility of the ugly woman, and to maintain the character of the character in the play, Li Xinru has always maintained the image of the ugly woman Lin invincible in real life.
Every day, Li Xinru will continue to play the image of the ugly lin invincible in the TV series in her life, without dressing up, without makeup, wearing braces, and wearing large glasses lenses, which is more than two years.
No TV audience will think that in reality, Li Xinru, who has a good face, a first-class figure, exquisite makeup, elegant conversation, and a dancer, will be the invincible ugly woman Lin Invincible in the play.
Thankfully, showbiz knows!
Li Xinru's continuous outstanding performance in "Ugly Girl Invincible" has attracted the attention of showbiz bigwigs.
In 2010, she was invited to participate in the filming of the large-scale costume film "Confucius". Although he plays an insignificant small role in the play, this role is a dance god who combines beauty and talent.
And her partners in the play were all the top stars at that time: Zhou Runfa played Confucius, and Zhou Xun played the beautiful and indispensable Nanzi, a famous beauty in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods.
Immediately after this drama, she received the role of Nanzi, a great beauty played by Zhou Xun in "Confucius Spring and Autumn", in another costume drama "Confucius Spring and Autumn".
It can be seen that the beauty of Li Xinru's appearance is.
Since then, she has received many invitations for films and TV series, including well-known directors, actors and big-budget films.
For example, in 2011, he partnered with Liu Tao and Pan Yueming, two stars.
In 2014, he joined hands with Huang Xiaoming and Fan Bingbing, two popular star celebrities in the showbiz circle at that time, to co-star in the hyped costume martial arts film "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch: The Bright Moon Heavenly Kingdom".
Unfortunately, although the actors, directors, movies and television series with whom he cooperates are not lacking in star celebrities, and he has also taken over the role of many female ones and starring actors, Li Xinru's fame seems to be still in its infancy, and the showbiz circle has heard about it from time to time, and outside the showbiz circle, it is almost still a vegetarian, and even the face is familiar.
In order to improve her popularity, Li Xinru can brush up on the exposure rate and sense of existence, for this reason, she participated in the Highly Exposed Variety Show "Dance Forest Conference" of Oriental Satellite TV, and once partnered with Li Chen as the host of a cultural tourism TV program.
But no matter how hard Li Xinru tries, she still falls into the spell that many stars can't escape: because a role explodes, and then continues to receive big productions and big roles, but since then her fame has not improved slightly, and she has been shrouded in the shadow of the explosive role, constantly nibbling on the dividends of the explosive role, until the drama is less and less, and the role is getting smaller and smaller.
Just when Li Xinru was confused and did not know how to face her own acting path, the big director Zhang Yimou extended an olive branch to her.
This time, will Li Xinru achieve his counterattack on the road of acting in the hands of this big director who has won countless popular girls?
03
In 2011, Li Xinru received an invitation from the crew of the large-scale film "Jinling Thirteen Chao" directed by Zhang Yimou and entered the crew to participate in the training before filming.
During the training period, in the face of the colorful and highly professional training content, Li Xinru felt that his eyes were wide open, sincerely admired, and unconsciously, took some pictures of the training and posted them on the Internet.
It was such an inconspicuous inadvertent mistake that caused Li Xinru's acting path to suffer the first major blow.
Because before entering the group, each actor and crew signed a confidentiality agreement, the most important of which is that the shooting progress and shooting scenes of the crew must not be disclosed.
Undoubtedly, Li Xinru's behavior of posting the content and pictures of the training on the Internet can be said to violate the above two rules at the same time.
In order to strictly enforce discipline, director Zhang Yimou had to kill a hundred people and expel Li Xinru from the crew.
I thought that I was selected by director Zhang Yimou to pick up the treasure, but I did not expect it to become a major setback in my acting career.
At that time, it was rumored on the Internet that director Zhang Yimou also banned Li Xinru, and Li Xinru completely withdrew from the show business circle because of this.
This statement is entirely the hype of unscrupulous media and people with ulterior motives.
In fact, since then, Li Xinru has not only not quit the show business circle, but also participated in the shooting of many large-scale production films, and has cooperated with many big stars and big directors.
As I mentioned earlier, Li Xinru has also participated in a series of films since 2012 and has worked with many famous actors to shoot films.
Even in 2015, she co-starred with Du Haitao, the host of Mango Channel, in the online comedy "Hello Waiter".
It can be seen from this that Li Xinru quit the entertainment circle because he was expelled from "Jinling Thirteen Chao" and was banned by director Zhang Yimou, which is completely empty and is a rumor fabricated by some people for some purpose.
04
It is not because director Zhang Yimou expelled and banned Li Xinru to withdraw from the circle, so what is the reason for Li Xinru's withdrawal from the circle?
The celebrities who float in the entertainment industry have ups and downs, highs and lows, and almost everyone's acting career has a tortuous and circuitous experience.
Some go from trough to peak and then sing all the way.
Some climbed from the trough to the top step by step, but had to go back downhill and back to the bottom.
Some people debut at the peak.
Some of them can walk high and continue to climb.
The other part of the people, like our protagonist Li Xinru, walked high and low, step by step to make themselves have no confidence to go again, and finally there was no way to go.
In 2015, after cooperating with Du Haitao to shoot the web drama "Hello Waiter", Li Xinru completely faded out of the show business circle and disappeared into the audience's vision.
No one knows where she went, and no one knows the real reason for her quit show business.
Until May 2017, Li Xinru posted a beautiful photo of herself and her two daughters playing in London on the Internet, and everyone knew that Li Xinru, who disappeared into the public eye in 2015, was originally married and had children.
It is rumored that her husband is a rich second generation, and from the current situation that Li Xinru revealed that he does not have to work, eat and wear without worry, and has luxury goods, it is extremely possible to marry into a rich family.
Later, the news on the Internet about her being abused by her rich second-generation husband spread wildly, but afterwards, Li Xinru came out to refute the rumors, saying that the rumors on the Internet were all nonsense and fabricated, and her family lived happily.
No matter what, we all hope that the big beauty Li Xinru will be like the character Lin Invincible she plays, and get the happy life she expects to get.
Bless her.
