In the past two days, because of excessive attention to the situation in Ukraine, many people have "worked with black hearts" and are squatting in a big ending.
Ukrainian President Zelenskiy, who was at the center of the storm, also became the focus of the news.
Everyone found out with hindsight that his resume was actually the magical history of a comedy star becoming a president.
Zelenskiy, who plays "Vashya" in the Ukrainian drama "Servant of the People"
Zelenskiy, 44, once ran a dragon set on Russian television, became an Internet celebrity by filming a divine drama, and became Ukraine's first celebrity president with the support of 73% of the people.
This may seem like a big joke to us, but it is really happening in Ukraine.
Zelenskiy in Servant of the People
Zelensky, full name Vladimir Alessandrovich Zelensky, was born on January 25, 1978, to a Jewish family in eastern Ukraine.
His father was a professor at the Institute of Economics at The Kiev State University of Economics, and his mother was an engineer, and he was persuaded by his parents to apply for the Faculty of Law of the Kyiv State University of Economics.
But Zelenskiy has always dreamed of becoming an actor, running dragon suits on the Russian comedy reality show KVN and then founding the "95 Block" comedy studio at the age of 19, where he is also a captain, screenwriter and actor.
Does this resume sound a bit like "Ukrainian Lee's Birthday"?
Li Birthday
In 2003, Zelenskiy switched to cooperating with the Ukrainian 1+1 television station and began to perform various programs that complained about Ukrainian politics.
As we all know, after the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine's official liaroism has become more and more serious, and the big officials have made a lot of money, but the people are living on a tight budget.
As a harmonic star, Zelenskiy is best at the connotation of the official master, so he soon became popular throughout the country with his sharp and poisonous tongue painting style.
In 2015, Zelenskiy ushered in the first peak of his career, and the nonsense comedy "Servant of the People" launched by him and his team became the annual drama of Ukraine (Douban score was as high as 9.0).
In the play, he played a middle school history teacher named "Vasha", because during the class, the students were forced to go to the polling station for the election campaign and post leaflets, and he angrily denounced the actions of the Ukrainian political fu, which was secretly filmed and uploaded to the Internet by the students.
As a result, "Vashya" became popular overnight, and with the advice of students and the help of crowdfunding from the whole people, he actually went all the way to become the president of Ukraine.
Then there is the general plot of Jack Su Shuangwen - "Vashya" President not only resolutely refused to cooperate with the evil oligarchs, but also vigorously cracked down on corruption, claiming to make high-ranking officials as clean as ordinary teachers.
The brain-opening series once reached 24% viewership in Ukraine.
The image of "Vasha" as a wise and righteous president has since penetrated the hearts of the people, and the comment that "if he can become president, how good" has even become a hot search term at that time...
This situation is a bit like Yoo Jae-seok, because the "big god" persona and super high national identity in the entertainment industry are considered to be people who can run for the president of South Korea... (Although he has also recently rolled over)
Stills from Servant of the People
Unlike Liu Zaishi, Zelenskiy actually had the idea of becoming president.
On December 31, 2018, Ukraine's 1+1 television station broadcast a televised speech that he would run for the Ukrainian presidency, when netizens across Ukraine were boiling, and according to polls, his approval rating immediately surpassed that of the then president, Poroshenko, as soon as he announced his candidacy.
It is worthy of being the top of the Ukrainian entertainment industry.
Many people must wonder, do Ukrainians really think that the harmonic star can rule the country?
In the eyes of the world, Zelenskiy has no political experience, no background, no resources, and is not suitable for leadership, but in the eyes of Ukrainian voters, this is his charm...
Because, at that time, Zelenskiy had two main competitors.
One is the former President of Ukraine Poroshenko, known as the "Chocolate King", one of the richest people in all of Ukraine, he lost Crimea when he was in office, messed up two cities in Udon, and the economy was not as good as a day...
Poroshenko
The other is the famous Tymoshenko, but in the eyes of Ukrainians, she is a thief who steals natural resources such as natural gas, and has also been imprisoned, and the people call her "gas princess".
Tymoshenko
Compared with them, Zelenskiy, who came from an ordinary family and had never been an official, was like a clear lotus out of the water, and the people believed that he had not been corrupted, and only he could understand the suffering of ordinary people and would not betray Ukraine.
What's more, just before the election on March 27, 2019, the third season of "Servant of the Man" starring Zelenskiy was broadcast, in which he used 2 villain roles to allude to his competitors in the real election- milk merchant Poroshenko and material girl Tymoshenko, and spared no effort to portray the two as bad and stupid, which not only resonated, but also deepened the audience's dislike of them, which can be called "the strongest campaign advertisement in history".
In other words, as a presidential candidate, Zelenskiy is actually busy filming while the election, which is incredible enough in itself...
Under this series of magical operations, the plot in the TV series was actually staged in reality!
On May 20, 2019, the 41-year-old Zelenskiy, with 73.3% approval, struck at former President Poroshenko, won the election and became the president of Ukraine, successfully embarking on the peak of his life.
But reality is the opposite of dreams, and after Zelenskiy took office, all he did was repeat the characters and lines in the play, and everything was just a cannon.
Like all traffic influencers, he can't leave any trace when the tide recedes.
Despite the growing frustration of the population, there was nothing they could do.
After all, when the election was held that year, as described in the TV series "Servant of the People", they had only two choices - "bad" and "worse", one side was "thief" and the other was "clown"...
Vasha: "Yeah, but he's a little better than the others..."
Finally, the Director would like to say that he hopes that the dispute will end as soon as possible and the world will be peaceful.
