With dexterous hands and excellent aesthetic talent, Xiaomeng has created many unique characters. The role of Zhang Qiling in his "Notes from the Tomb Robber" provides an excellent reference for the image positioning of the characters in later film and television dramas.

In addition, the white jade hall he built is also called "a stranger's face is like a jade, and the prince is unparalleled in the world". It can be seen that Xiaomeng's grasp and positioning of the character image is very accurate.

If it is said that a handsome skin bag born is the talent given to Xiaomeng by God, then the study of modeling design the day after tomorrow is the chip that Xiaomeng blesses for himself. It was also these foreshadowing that laid the foundation for Xiao Meng's later creation of the image of a "bodhisattva".

As an iconic figure in Buddhism, the bodhisattva originated in ancient India and was introduced to China from the Western Han Dynasty. Since then, Buddhism has been deeply rooted in traditional Chinese culture and has more elements of national style.

With a smart white coat and elegant facial features, Xiao Meng made the image he displayed very oriental. In order to point out the connection between "bodhisattva" and "holiness", he also named his group of works after the Pure Land.

In line with the ultimate pursuit of character shaping, Xiaomeng led his team to Dunhuang, Gansu To shoot, which once attracted tourists to watch.

They were attracted by the "bodhisattva" that appeared vividly in front of them, and they competed to express their desire to take a photo with Xiao Meng.

Later, Xiao Meng used the song "Hawthorn Pear" on a website to soundtrack "Pure Land", which was affectionately called "Hawthorn Pear Brother" by netizens.

The traffic and communication efficiency brought by "Pure Land" have snowballed, and even been picked up by netizens on the "extranet", and foreigners even directly regard Xiaomeng as an actor in Bollywood.

In response to this, Xiaomeng firmly stated in Weibo that his group of photos was taken in China, inspired by the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, and emphasized his love and respect for China's local culture.

Some netizens also said that the "bodhisattva" of Xiaomeng is not so much a "holy Buddha" as a "demon monk", which is too charming for all sentient beings.

Today, Xiaomeng has added more Chinese elements to her cosmos, making those images that once appeared only in words and calligraphy and paintings come alive into real life.

It also allows more foreigners who do not understand Chinese culture to understand more about the beautiful factors in Chinese culture.

02 The road to cos is also going farther

In addition to "Pure Land", Xiaomeng has also tried many characters who integrate traditional Chinese culture.

Previously, he had recorded a video about how men wore makeup two thousand years ago, that is, during the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which set off a wave of imitation on the Internet for a time. Later, Xiao Meng created the image of the "God of War Buddha".

You know, in addition to the 86th edition of "Journey to the West", it is difficult for people to have a clear sensory image of the "Fighting God Buddha".

And now, whether it is the overall visual color matching or the sacred and inviolable light in the eyes, it looks sacred and beautiful under the shaping of the little dream, and it is too beautiful to be desecrated.

Such is the case with good works of art, and needless to say, as long as you stand quietly in that atmosphere, you can feel a strong spiritual stirring.

Since Xiaomeng came into contact with cosplay in 2003, she is now a veteran figure who has been in the industry for more than ten years, and it can even be said that she has single-handedly provoked half of the cosplay industry.

Many netizens come to imitate Xiaomeng's makeup style, but they only know one and do not know the other.

Since 2016, Xiaomeng has tried to join the show business circle, and the "My Vampire Boyfriend" series has brought him a lot of fans.

I have to say that in addition to being handy in makeup, he is also no less than a character. This personality of doing everything to the extreme has also become the key to Xiaomeng's success in her career.

03 Behind the fame is sweat and hardship

The more glamorous the surface, the more people can't help but think of the scene of the big boy in front of them repeatedly trying and making mistakes behind the scenes, without the practice and trial of day after day in the early stage, Xiaomeng would not find such a clear role positioning for himself.

In fact, the easiest thing in the world is to start, the hardest thing is to persevere, three points of talent and seven points of effort. Too many people attribute their unhappiness in their later lives to innate lack of gifts, and often do not see the inferiority rooted in their hearts.

Because of persistence, Peng Yuyan has transformed from a small fat man in everyone's eyes to a leader in the fitness industry today, and has cultivated excellent acting skills in the continuous polishing of the day after tomorrow.

Because of persistence, Yang Liping entered middle age but still retained a beautiful posture that only belonged to young girls.

Because of his persistence, Zuckerberg fought for the Myth of Facebook.

Times are changing, life is changing, people yearn for beauty, pursue beauty, and blame beauty. This "beauty" is not only physical, it exists more in the mind, on top of personality.

Once you have made a choice, you must uphold this original intention, sculpt it, and temper it.

Xiaomeng is such an admirable boy, people will marvel at his appearance, but eventually indulge in his professionalism.

Unlike everyday makeup, a mature makeup artist needs to have a high aesthetic endowment to be able to accurately match different people to the most suitable dress for him.

This appreciation of beauty is not something that can be obtained in a day and a year, it needs to be accumulated and honed continuously. Makeup is to continuously optimize the other party under the premise of respecting the innate conditions, so as to achieve the effect of weakening the shortcomings and optimizing the advantages.

Just think, if it were not for countless mistakes and criticism from investors, Xiaomeng would not have achieved what it has today. Seeing more of the existence of two sides of things is also very helpful for us to look at other trivial things in life in the future.
