Every year, there are some actors who have been acting for many years, and suddenly they get a lot of attention because of a certain role. The common points of these actors are: 1, the level of business is skilled; 2, the audience feels familiar; 3, the character is pleasing.
This is the so-called "who does not have a storm when the rain, keep the clouds open to see the moon." "The feng shui of the entertainment industry is always rotating, and fate will always favor those who work hard."
At the end of 2017, Mu Ruhanshan, who played the role of Muyun on the Sea, stood on his heel in this TV series with 75 episodes, magnificent plot and complicated roles.
Counting down, this year is the tenth year of Qu Gao's graduation from Chinese opera.

"If the perfect score is 100, my liking for Muruhanshan is 120 points."
Qu Gaozuo said that "The Tale of The Sea Muyun" is a rare crew with a particularly strong sense of teamwork, and each department of clothing, chemistry, Taoism, filming, recording, and beauty is very professional, and a small prop is not ok. What impressed him most was that the actors would spontaneously come to the director to talk about their experiences after filming every day, so that whether it was the healthy competition between the actors or the creative atmosphere of the roles in the crew, it was very comfortable.
The story of "The Tale of the Sea Muyun" is very large, with nine states on the geographical basis forming three lands, six races, and six major families, which is a typical multi-line narrative. Mu Ru Hanshan, played by Qu Gaoshan, is the eldest son of the Mu Ru clan, in the play, the younger brother's "fate high cover lord" is one of the biggest contradictions in the play, and as the eldest brother, Mu Ru Hanshan's role is mainly based on the opponent play of the family, there is no love line, Qu Gao said that there is no regret at all, and the word loyalty and filial piety occupy all of Mu Ru Hanshan's life.
Mu RuHanshan's role in the first half of the play is not much, after the appearance of the ninth episode, mainly to spoil the two younger brothers, from more than forty episodes, Mu Ru Iron horse stationed in Hanzhou after the scene began to eat heavy, the wonderful part is his opponent scene with his father, and the war scene after his father escaped he led the army to fight.
It can be seen that Qu's high-level interpretation of Mu Ruhanshan is very hard work. On the "flesh", Mu Ruhanshan has many scenes of being punished by his father, and Lao Tzu taught his son that slapping and kicking feet are true:
On the lines, because it is an acoustic drama with live radio, whether the actor's words are clear and whether the emotions are in place will be infinitely amplified, and it is easier to produce a contrast between the good and the bad. The large conversation with his father on the Gobi appropriately interpreted Mu Ruhanshan's Geng Zhishan and filial piety; a speech that fixed the hearts of the army before the battle, he said it passionately, which immediately made Mu Ru's army have the tragedy of seeing death as a homecoming.
Qu Gao said that when he performed a scene that could not be spoiled, he was more impressed, when he performed, his eyes were full of Venus, and he could not calm down for a long time after the performance, he said: "I have been shivering for more than an hour, and I will now talk about this scene."
Asked how much he liked Mu Ruhanshan, Qu Gao said, "If the full score is 100, I may choose 120 points." "He has invested too much emotion in Hanshan, and he will feel that it is not as good as Hanshan when he looks at other roles."
He said that this role has a lot of things that the script does not give, but when he receives it, he will think about how to interpret the growth process of this character, from the eldest son in the greenhouse to the general on the battlefield, how to understand his integrity, his tactics, his filial piety, his loyalty... Qu Gaoyou believes that people have no right or wrong in the face of war, each has a position, and all human choices should be discussed, so he understands that Hanshan still understands his father's reasons even if he escapes from the battlefield, and at that moment, he is Hanshan.

"The madman is to reach the realm of self-forgetfulness, I dare not say that I have done it, I am working hard."
Most of the "Muyun on the Sea" is a live-action shooting, the crew filmed in Xinjiang for three months, many places in Xinjiang have no roads, transporting people and horses and transporting machines are laborious. The crew works for more than ten hours a day, and everyone feels very hard.
Qu Gaozuo's first scene in Xinjiang was to force Hanzhou to send troops and raid the Suqin prospecting tribe, in which there was a shot of drawing a sword, and after filming, he found that his hand was cut by a weapon, and he immediately went to the hospital for stitches. But he said it wasn't a big deal because the crew "gets people going to the hospital every day." ”
The big battle with Helan Iron Rim, a total of 12 days, every day to the same place, once you go to wear 30 pounds of armor, a beat is a day, in the exposed weather, the props team to the scene of flying dust to sprinkle snow or rain, the battle scene, after the filming of the high position is bruised, as for the makeup on the face, not to mention the skin is polished by the wind and sand, he said "where there is any skin, the face is covered with a layer of paint every day, sprinkled with a lot of blood plasma, there is no need to be dirty, after shooting that 12 days, almost a month to wash the face." But he still felt nothing, because "not only am I very hard, everyone is very hard." ”
At this time, we can't help but think of a very popular sentence recently, "actors must have a sense of faith", qu high position means that the sense of faith is the most basic, actors must fully believe that they are this person, if there is no sense of faith, you will not believe in the occasion where the role is, let alone talk about acting well or badly.
He said that investing in the role is the premise of the actor, understanding the role, learning some of the skills that the role should know is normal and should be. When he gets the role, he will also constantly figure out the lines and practice the tone of the character in the context.
Some people have concluded that there are two kinds of actors, one is to act what is to act themselves, and the other is to act what is what. As we often see, some popular actors do take on some homogeneous roles in the short term, overbearing president, silly white sweet, Mary Sue... The audience changes from this play to that play, and the actors' performances will not have any jumping scenes. However, in addition to "God appreciates the food", actors also have to do their own job of shaping different roles.
Qu Gao started acting in 2007, and this year he has starred in more than twenty TV series and movies, and it is inevitable that we will be asked which is the favorite of all the characters we have played. He said: "Cheng Jianbang in 'Goodbye Alive' is a character I like more. ”
Cheng Jianbang, an undercover armed police soldier in the Golden Triangle, always wore a cigarette in his mouth, wore a straw hat, cursed dirty words, treated people roughly, because he deliberately committed crimes in and out of prison, but repeatedly covered up colleagues who came to the Golden Triangle to investigate the case. This character subverts tradition, but has flesh and blood, grounded, special righteousness, and complex psychological characteristics.
Qu Gao said frankly that he prefers this kind of role that is also good and evil, and refuses to be facial, refuses to be one-sided, and is more resistant to playing a traditional good person or bad person. Because there are many ways to express it in this way, "a good role must have multiple expressions", talking about the type of role you like, Qu is high and energetic. He himself admits that when picking a script, he will pay special attention to the contradictions, conflicts and his growth of the characters, and sometimes even quarrel with his agent for a role, and discuss with the team to analyze the role for an hour or two, or even longer.
But when he faced the people around him who described him as a "drama maniac", he calmed down again: "I dare not say that I am a drama maniac, because I think the word "drama maniac" is a very high praise for the actor." Because an actor can be a madman, it means that he has reached a realm of self-forgetfulness, believing that he is the role, and then putting all his attention into this role. I can't say I'm crazy yet, but I'll try. Do it. ”

"My character trait is stubbornness, and if I had been so pragmatic, I would have had a better life now."
What will an actor face if he has been acting for ten years and has not yet played a more influential role? First of all, the pressure of the family, perhaps the parents will feel that the child is not doing the right thing, after all, more parents want the child to be a civil servant rather than an actor; secondly, the friends around him, may persuade him to change careers; and then there is the pressure from himself, unintentionally and torturing himself to choose the right path. If there is no intuitive return on profit, how can it persist?
We thought that when Qu Gaogao talked about his ten years of acting, he would have some sighs, but in fact, he did not have any, "In fact, I have always belonged to a more down-to-earth and low-key state." Anyway, I have been groping and playing, constantly honing to maturity. ”
Qu Gao said frankly that perhaps because of his relatively mature appearance, many middle-aged people in the market would come to him when he first graduated, but because of his more axe personality, some roles may not want to act, so he gave up. As a Taurus, Qu Gao said that his biggest personality characteristic is stubbornness, "saying that it is good to hear is persistent, and it is not good to hear is called stubbornness", and you can feel that the high component in his bones is still there, "It is not so pragmatic, and it is really so pragmatic that the current life can be better." ”
A similar story happened to another Taurus actor: Yi Nengjing wrote on Weibo in September this year that Qin Hao had persistently refused some jobs with more money but a bad script.
Some people have concluded that many Taurus actors in the entertainment industry, including Zhou Runfa, Chen Daoming, Yu Hewei, He Bing, Qin Hao, Duan Yihong, Pan Yueming, Zhang Yishan, etc., can produce high-quality works for a long time, and Taurus actresses are also not lacking in Jiang Xin, Wan Qian, such a strong faction that focuses on acting.
Qu Gao said that the characteristics of this constellation of steady stability, persistence, and ability to carry things are vividly reflected in themselves, in addition to not loving to eat (some people summarize that Taurus are foodies), he can be said to be a typical Taurus.
We also feel the characteristics of "resisting things, holding things in the heart", Qu Gao is simply an expression that he is optimistic when he is most difficult, and he is not willing to say what kind of low or high period he has experienced in the past ten years, perhaps Taurus actors only know how to present the roles in the play, and silent themselves in real life.
In fact, the best actors are often like this, low-key private life, simple character design, in order to create a multi-faceted texture of the role in the work without restriction.

"Seeing me being beaten up in the play, my dad would be proud of me."
After filming "The Tale of The Sea Muyun", Qu Gao took over some characters who were completely different from Mu Ruhanshan's Straight. In 2018, the costume play "Huang Quan Yi Tianxia" in which he participated will be broadcast, in which he plays the seven princes.
"One Thousand and One Nights", which is now being filmed in Hangzhou, is an urban drama with science fiction colors, in which Qu Gao plays the villain. Although the interpretation is a bad guy in the traditional sense, Qu Gao said that in his heart, there is no real bad guy, and he will not take the initiative to play the villain as a bad guy, but "as a person to play". He is frank about the direction he pursues, "which is to play different and complex human characters." ”
However, this actor with a complex heart actually has a simple life, watching movies, exercising, and eating with friends when he is not working, "When there is a job, I hope that I can devote myself to the role." ”
Finally, we thought of a funny question, about Mu Ruhanshan has so many scenes of being scolded by his father, what will Qu Gao's father think when he sees it?
His mood suddenly became slightly agitated: "I think my father should be proud of my dedication." He said his father was his most important man. Because from the day he chose to be a professional actor, only his father supported him and believed in him from beginning to end. And only when he strives to go down the road of an actor and contribute more good roles can he repay his deep gratitude to his father.
It is precisely in this way that at the end of 2017, we can see the heart-wrenching Mu Ruhan mountain on TV. An actor who has undergone thousands of hammers and tribulations, is steady and stable, and is obsessed with ingenuity.
