Follow me, listen to a story, and taste life!
When he was 6 years old, when the teacher asked his classmates what they liked to do when they grew up, Li Yifeng stood up and shouted: "When I grow up, I want to be a star!" ”
Some people said that they wanted to be scientists, teachers, and bosses, and that li Yifeng was the only one who said that he was a star, and he could not care about the laughter of his classmates, so he quietly buried this seed in his heart and cared for it carefully.
At the age of 20, Li Yifeng, who participated in the talent show, was only one step away from becoming a star, and his name was in the most popular "Four Young People in the City" at that time, but he was the only one who did not sign after the end of the game.
If it wasn't for Hu Haiquan signing him, he might not have persevered if he won the eighth place in the national finals, but even if he met Bole, his star path was still not as smooth as others.
In the 8 years since his debut, he has made records and made soap operas, and still has not set off any storms, until he is 27 years old and has become popular with a costume drama.
So far, Li Yifeng, who has been debuting for 15 years, has been torn between success and frustration, and his road to fame is not only based on appearance.
Li Yifeng was not originally called Li Yifeng, but Li He.
Li He was born in 1987 in Chengdu, Sichuan.
Looking at eighty at the age of three, some children have understood the self-cultivation of being a star since they were born, and Li He has a special desire to perform when he starts kindergarten.
Seeing that the kindergarten was preparing to hold a model catwalk, the other little boys were retreating one after another, but he was eager to try, and begged his mother to use lipstick to draw a little red on his eyebrows, and walked up the show to twist and turn, there was a look.
When I was in elementary school, the teacher asked everyone to write down their wishes in the essay.
Other children write about scientists, writers and other pure-hearted professions, but Li He has set a great ambition to become a star.
But there must always be an opportunity for the stubborn stone to become beautiful jade, and a monk in "Dream of the Red Chamber" has guided this qualitative change, and the real junior high school student Li He has also met a Fang Wai Gao who guides him.
At that time, he and his mother were shopping and saw an old gentleman on the side of the road, idle and idle, and the mother and son listened to him show off.
The old man sighed: "Li He is not very good, you see that tang dynasty poet is also called Li He, depressed all his life, he died young at the age of 24, go back and quickly change his name!" ”
Listening to these words, whether you believe it or not, your heart is always blocked, and not long after you go back, your mother flipped through the dictionary all night and changed "Li He" to "Li Yifeng".
Needless to say, after the name change, Li Yifeng can be described as a surge in popularity, full of spring breeze, and a star reserve.
Not long after he went to high school, he became a famous grass on campus, because everywhere he went, there were people peeking at him, which was called a gaze absorber.
Because he was afraid of causing onlookers, the class teacher even gave him immunity from recess exercises.
Li Yifeng not only ate well in school, but also gained a full return rate outside the school.
Once shopping he was noticed by the star scout, who asked him if he was willing to shoot an advertisement for a wedding studio, at this time he still had a dream of stardom, and when he heard that the other party's intention was naturally to secretly steal joy, he agreed without much thought.
In the days that followed, he earned two or three thousand yuan a month from shooting advertisements.
However, he also gradually realized that he was still far from the "star" of his dreams, but the opportunity soon came.
After graduating from high school, he entered the School of Film and Television of Sichuan Normal University and studied broadcast hosting.
In 2007, 20-year-old Li Yifeng took another step on the road of acting.
Come on! The mighty audition of "Good Boy" came to the Chengdu Division, and Li Yifeng signed up at the instigation of his parents.
In one round of competition, the hairy boy sang a song called "Leaves", and the original singer of this song, Hu Haiquan, was sitting on the judges' bench.
After listening to Li Yifeng's childish singing, Hu Haiquan quipped: "For your sake of currying favor with the judges, you will pass the pass." ”
This was the first time Hu Haiquan had taken care of Li Yifeng, but it was not the last.
In Li Yifeng's later acting path, Hu Haiquan had the grace of knowing him and was both a boss and a mentor.
In the competition, Li Yifeng became a popular player with his excellent appearance and shangke's strength, and also won a large number of "bee" fans.
But his journey came to an abrupt halt in the 8-6 match.
In this game, he lost to his opponent Yan An with a disadvantage of 30,000 votes and had no choice but to leave the game.
Li Yifeng's elimination was unexpected by the audience, and Li Yifeng was still 20,000 votes ahead of Yan An before the interstitial advertisement, but Yan An surpassed 30,000 votes after just one minute of advertising.
Many viewers and Fans of Li Yifeng have questioned that the program team has reversed the votes of the two people, and there is even a shady scene.
But in the end, it was not over, and ended with Li Yifeng's gray exit, but his dream of stardom was not hindered.
Although it was eliminated miserably, there was still a group of "bees" who swore to die to escort them.
More importantly, the nobleman Hu Haiquan once again helped.
Shortly after the end of the competition, Hu Haiquan signed Li Yifeng to his EQ record label.
In the same year, Hu Haiquan adapted Yuquan's song "Leaves" into a song called "Four-Leaf Clover", which Li Yifeng sang and released.
At the end of the following year, Hu Haiquan arranged the first solo concert for Li Yifeng in Chengdu, and Li Yifeng debuted only a year ago.
The reason why Hu Haiquan is heavy and the reason why Li Yifeng's star path process is so fast is actually due to his appearance in "Come on! Popularity accumulated during "Good Boys".
In 2009, with the support of fans, Li Yifeng won the first Mengniu Yogurt Music Chart and launched the music album "Little Mr.".
But the heat brought by the draft gradually faded, and after that, the album did not sell as well as before, and the concert was not as good as before.
So the company's top management filmed the case, so that Li Yifeng, who was in the bottleneck period of the singer's career, changed a track and went to act.
Idols acting in idol dramas is a perfect choice.
Because of the advantages of appearance and popularity, Li Yifeng was photographed by the producer and starred in his first film and television work adapted from the anime, "The Prince of Tennis".
The small test in acting made Li Yifeng full of a sense of accomplishment, and after that, he shifted the focus of his career to acting.
The 2011 broadcast of "The Clearest Day of Happiness" is a small sweet spot on the road of Li Yifeng's acting, in which he plays the male number two, perhaps because of cooperation with Baodao artists, at this time he reads his lines full of Taiwanese accent.
Although the lines and acting skills are full of youthfulness, after all, it is an idol drama, and the audience will not be harsh.
This drama has won super high ratings in both Baodao and the mainland, and Li Yifeng, who plays the male second with his handsome appearance, has also made a small fire and won the Best Newcomer Award at the National Drama Festival.
This award is not a recognition of Li Yifeng's acting skills, but a recognition of his popularity, and since then Li Yifeng has starred in the TV series "Honey Of Love".
In the play, he plays the male number two Chen Liyang, and secretly has feelings for the female number one Qiao Zhixia, played by Li Duohai.
But as you might expect, since ancient times, male number two has been cannon fodder on the emotional line, and finally can only watch the female number one run to the arms of the male number one.
However, outside the play, Li Yifeng staged a beautiful hug.
In the process of filming, Li Yifeng and Li Duohai came together and became true lovers.
At that time, although Li Yifeng had not yet become popular, he was already an idol potential stock, so the love affair could only be quietly carried out in a place where the audience could not see it.
But it seems that for Li Duohai, Li Yifeng is just a choice to relieve the boredom when filming in a foreign country.
By the time Li Yifeng revealed on the variety show two years later that he had a transnational relationship, he and Li Duohai had been separated for some time.
During that time, Li Yifeng had already become popular with "Ancient Sword Qitan", and the media had photographed him repeatedly going to South Korea, suspected of seeking a compound.
Some people also broke the news that the reason why the two broke up was because Li Duohai hated Li Yifeng, who had not yet become popular, and his economic conditions were not good, and he could not afford to buy a 500-square-meter house in South Korea.
At that time, as soon as the rumors came out, netizens said that today is different from the past, and now that Li Yifeng has become famous, it is Li Duohai's turn to regret it.
Turn back the clock two years ago and see frame by frame how Li Yifeng became a man who made Li Duohai unworthy.
In 2013, Li Yifeng starred in the "Return of a Thousand Golds" broadcast, I don't know if it is out of the need for hype heat, his suspected relationship with the female number one actor Li Qin has also been boiling for a while.
The turning point in his career really came in July of that year, when Li Yifeng entered the crew of "Ancient Sword Qitan".
Since then, although the series has not yet been broadcast, Li Yifeng's career has obviously jumped to a higher level.
In January 2014, Li Yifeng appeared on the opening cover of the magazine "Grace Men's Uno" and was invited to milan fashion week.
In February, Li Yifeng took He Jiong and Huang Lei and starred in the movie "Gardenia Blossom".
From supporting actors to male number one, from third-line actors to attending internationally renowned fashion weeks, the upgrade of resources is clear at a glance.
And the opportunity is "Ancient Sword Qitan", the producer of this drama is Huanrui Century, perhaps the contact in the process of cooperation allowed Li Yifeng to enter Huanrui's eyes, only to have a large number of resources that were previously out of reach.
In April 2014, Li Yifeng and Huanrui officially signed a five-year contract, and then Li Yifeng did not disappoint Huanrui.
In July 2014, "Ancient Sword Qitan" premiered, probably at a favorable time and place, and this drama has recorded 8.8 billion views in just two months.
The popularity of this drama has also brought tangible benefits to the creators, not only for the power of the power of the sky to replenish, but also for Chen Weiting to successfully open the mainland market, but also let Li Yifeng directly soar to the first-line traffic students.
With the role of Baili Tusu, Li Yifeng won the Most Popular Actor Award in mainland China at the National Opera Festival.
After that, Li Yifeng came to kill the gods on the traffic route, and the Buddha blocked the Buddha, which was not a one-sided sense of the body, but supported by data.
In the list of "Artist New Media Index" given by new media data monitoring company Vlinkage, Li Yifeng has firmly occupied the first place for 78 consecutive days, and this record has not been surpassed by anyone so far.
Relying on the huge fan base, Li Yifeng has improved its commercial value.
But at the same time, in the eyes of a class of fans, Li Yifeng has also become his own son, caring, disciplining, and even the chicken baby, one does not leak.
There is often an intolerable relationship between fans and brokerage companies, and too many fans are eager to personally fight and act as the agent of the main owner to escort them, and Li Yifeng's fans are no exception.
In 2014, not long after Li Yifeng became popular, fans staged a shot to tear the agent.
On the grounds of filming in yellow magazines, having a bad attitude towards the business media, and delaying the activities of artists, fans collectively attacked their agent Dong Keyan and demanded that Huanrui change her agent, and finally the scolding war ended with Dong Keyan being forced by fans to "disarm and return to the field".
The day after the matter fermented, Huanrui issued a statement, claiming that it would strengthen Li Yifeng's brokerage team.
But as we all know, collective rage is always easy to move towards an uncontrollable state.
The fans' initial motivation may have been to defend Li Yifeng's interests, but the development of things has become more and more magical.
After tearing up Dong Keyan, the fans incidentally crusaded against the assistant, and one of the incriminating evidences listed was: eating at the same table with the main actor on the set, and there was no eyesight at all.
At that time, Li Yifeng was filming "Notes on Tomb Robbery", but for a time it was not clear whether it was Li Yifeng's tomb or the fan's tomb, and the fan's brain circuit vaguely had some "afterglow" of the feudal era.
And just when the fans were complacent about this "victory", things quickly took off.
I don't know where the rumors broke, the "fan hand tearing agent" incident was completely planned by Li Yifeng's publicity director Sun Yuxi, in order to force Dong Keyan away.
Suddenly, the spearhead was aimed at Sun Yuxi again.
In the end, Sun Yuxi had to run away with the team to prove his innocence.
After Sun Yuxi resigned, Dong Keyan also issued a response, clarifying that there was no so-called palace fight incident.
While confirming that he had resigned from Huanrui, he also expressed his remorse for the ineffectiveness of his past work, and finally ended with a sentence "Everything is nothing but mediocre self-disturbance", which is quite liberated from the disturbances.
In this way, overnight, the agents, assistants, and publicity teams around Li Yifeng fled.
Since December 2014, his work has been temporarily managed by Jia Shikai, vice president of Huanrui.
At first, the fans were all happy, and they went to Jia Shikai's comment area to throw out all kinds of flattering words, such as "the peak is turning, the willow is dark and the flowers are bright", what is "thank you Jia Zong, Jia Zong also has to take care of his body".
This face is like a parent who wants his child to become a working cadre and asks the teacher all kinds of greetings.
But it didn't take long for Jia Shikai to embark on the old path of his predecessors.
In the traffic era, there are still many benefits to having fans leaning over, otherwise the Beijing circle would not have "condescended and degraded" to gather the two traffic mountains of Li Yifeng and Wu Mou, and made up an "Old Cannon".
Riding on the Beijing circle became the son of "Feng Xiaogang", which seems to be a "great achievement" after Jia Shikai took office, but Jia Shikai picked up the pick shortly after the filming of "Old Cannon".
"Feng Feng is going to focus on film and television, and you still arrange a concert for him to be ten thousand people, how can he be so capable?"
"Why did the media ask Wu's questions at the press conference?"
"How do you do the propaganda?"
In the end, Jia Shikai did not withstand all kinds of accusations and turned around and took Yang Yang's team.
Later, Yang Jiayin took over the position of his agent.
In June 2015, "Notes on the Tomb Robber" was about to start broadcasting, and another storm came.
Yang Yang and Li Yifeng's fans tore each other, Li Yifeng's fans tore Yang Jiayin from hand, and the starring fans tore the screenwriter, and finally did not know who tore whom.
The question of who ended up tearing whom was very philosophical; if there was one of the two people who were "Lu Shusheng" and "Ji Wusheng", he might be able to give an answer!
I have to say that the success of the fans is also a fan.
Fans have lifted Li Yifeng to a high platform, but they have also built an artificial dome for Li Yifeng, thinking that they are more professional and competent than the brokerage team, but blocking his path to higher altitude.
However, what is more fatal is not the generation gap between fans and the brokerage team, but the generation gap between fans and the broad masses of the people.
In December 2015, "Old Cannon" was released, and the Beijing circle sought profits and praised traffic, and fans blew their acting skills; netizen audiences also sighed and laughed.
Capital revolves around the flow of customs, but there are always excellent actors and excellent teams who are willing to generate electricity for love and create good works that the audience likes to hear, but the authoritative awards are also rushing to praise everyone is not happy.
In 2016, the Best Supporting Actor of the Hundred Flowers Award of the Popular Film Festival was announced, and the spotlight swept through the faces of Zhang Yi, Duan Yihong, and Xia Yu, but finally fell into Li Yifeng's home.
To be fair, Li Yifeng's acting skills are not so clumsy, and the emotions in the film are still in place and have not been dragged down.
It can be said that it is useless, but the degree of brilliance is naturally not as good as the actors with deep skills in the same film, and they are even more green in front of Zhang Yi and Duan Yihong.
In this way, netizens have said that the Hundred Flowers Award has a big water, and the award attribution is too absurd; to this day, "Water Emperor" is still Li Yifeng's black name.
Perhaps it was the real comments of netizens that spurred Li Yifeng, and since then he has also been painfully determined and began to sculpt his acting skills.
In fact, even if there is no Hundred Flowers Award, Li Yifeng has also positioned himself.
It is a good thing to have fans and traffic, but the fan effect is not permanent, and only by relying on strength and works can we really stand firm.
In June 2016, Li Yifeng entered the crew of "Psychological Crimes".
In this film, Li Yifeng plays Fang Mu, a college student who is involved in a murder case, and the film has a lot of psychoanalytic scenes, but he controls it.
The collapse and perseverance of the characters have been played out, and there has been great progress, in fact, it is no longer the "facial paralysis" acting skills that everyone criticizes.
If it weren't for the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Supporting Actor, perhaps the audience would have paid attention to this progress instead of flocking to the criticism.
But in the face of criticism from the audience and the blind protection of fans, Li Yifeng did not lose himself.
In 2017, Li Yifeng "disappeared" for eight months.
During these eight months, there was so little press release activity that some people asserted that he had passed, and in fact, At that time, Li Yifeng was fully engaged in the filming of the movie "Animal World".
Fortunately, Li Yifeng's efforts have paid off.
After the release of the film, the praise was overwhelming, in this movie with the theme of breaking through the flow, Li Yifeng performed the decadence and gentleness of the male protagonist Zheng Kaisi, allowing the audience to enter the play and express their sincerity at the same time.
In 2019, Li Yifeng and Huanrui's 5-year contract expired, and he did not choose to renew it; after experiencing so much hustle and bustle, the breakup between the two sides was unexpectedly peaceful
After leaving Huanrui, Li Yifeng opened his own studio on his own.
At this time, there are two paths in front of him: one is to use the fan economy to the extreme and continue to make money by fans; the other is to transform powerful actors and open up a new world by relying on works.
Li Yifeng chose the latter, he slowed down the pace of "business", did not go to the variety show to join in the fun in order to maintain traffic, but spent more time improving acting skills.
Over the years, Li Yifeng has filmed works such as "Revolutionary" and "My Hometown and Me", although he has starred in supporting roles, but it is also an opportunity to calm down and precipitate acting skills.
At the same time, the performance in works such as "The Trumpeter is in Place" and "Hidden and Great" can also be remarkable.
It is worth mentioning that "Hidden and Great", in this period drama that has been backlogged for three years before it was broadcast, Li Yifeng starred as a small person with justice, eyes, small expressions, and small actions.
In 2022, Li Yifeng and Chen Yuqi starred in the Xian Xia Sword "Mirror Twin Cities" broadcast.
However, in the first play of the opening year, Li Yifeng encountered Waterloo, and the rating of this drama was only 3.9 points.
From the beginning of the plot structure and the costume of the Road has been criticized, in this case, the possibility of the actor wanting to turn the tide by acting alone is even more minimal.
Not surprisingly, Li Yifeng's acting skills are still in the category of netizen condemnation; so it seems that his road to a powerful actor is still long.
However, with the belief of being a good actor as a support, I believe that in the future, Li Yifeng can still completely turn against the wind with good works.
Along the way, Li Yifeng is like playing qualifying, with ups and downs.
At the age of 20, he was so lucky that he was favored by Hu Haiquan to become a popular singer.
After the singer's road fell into a bottleneck period, he was assigned to act by the company, and unexpectedly achieved success on this road and ascended to the throne of the originator of fresh meat.
Since then, various doubts have followed, but he did not give up on himself, relying on a clear positioning to forge word of mouth step by step.
He has been blessed by luck, and he has also had bottlenecks, tossing between success and frustration; but whether it is the past or the future, there are times when he turns against the wind with small wisdom.
