At that time, Jiang Shan became the first beautiful woman in Jiangnan from her nationality without a name with a "Passing Addiction".
Pressing Zhang Kaili, Tranquility and other first-line celebrities, she became a national goddess in the 90s.
Wang Han said: "Jiang Shan has always been my goddess, and every time I see it, I can't help but blush."
But these brilliances should have been another actress's.
Chen Jianbin and Li Yapeng are her classmates.
In his sophomore year, he went to shoot the "Story of the Editorial Department", which was popular all over the country at that time.
Subsequently, he and Feng Gong partnered in the CCTV program "Rong".
A classic line "Just lose the bike, let someone else ride a lap, and send it back." "It's still fresh in my mind.
In his early 20s, he was competed by many directors to play the number one, and his debut was the height that many peers looked up to.
However, she missed the opportunity to become popular because she pigeonted Zhao Baogang's "Addiction".
Compared with Jiang Shan, who replaced her, she became a supporting role that no one cared about, and then she could only be active in the aunt circle and become a mother professional household.
She is the actor Wang Lan.
From the temperament goddess with a good face to the annoying aunt today, what has Wang Lan experienced over the years?
01
The first screen work, stunning the public
Wang Lan was born in 1971 in Tacheng, Xinjiang, her facial features are three-dimensional, her eyes are deep, and she is a typical Xinjiang beauty.
Not only is his appearance outstanding, Wang Lan has been able to sing and dance since he was a child, and his talent in art is also very high.
When she was in junior high school, she began to study in the art school, and her family also hoped that she would achieve something in the arts.
Wang Lan also lived up to expectations, has been studying hard during the school period, and also actively participates in some public welfare performances, whether it is performance skills or experience have been well improved.
Her outstanding performance in school allowed her to be assigned to the Ili State Repertory Theatre as soon as she graduated.
But Wang Lan's inner pursuit of performance does not stop there, she longs for a bigger stage.
So she decided to abandon the establishment of the drama troupe and go to the Central Academy of Drama for more systematic study.
In 1990, Wang Lan was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama as she wished, and now the front-line celebrities Chen Jianbin, Li Yapeng, and Wang Xuebing are her classmates.
Her beautiful appearance is extraordinary in the drama school, and she has received a lot of attention when she entered the school, and she was directly rated as a class flower. With her youthful and beautiful appearance, coupled with the temperament of not eating fireworks, many people call her "Wang Zuxian of the Mainland".
In my sophomore year, "The Story of the Editorial Department" selected the actors, and I immediately took a fancy to Wang Lan, who had a beautiful appearance.
At the interview site, Zhao Baogang and Feng Xiaogang, the two directors, were chatting happily, the two talked for more than two hours, Wang Lan sat on the side and they talked for two hours, during which the posture did not change, which made Zhao Baogang remember her at once, saying that this girl has resilience.
Later, she successfully won the role of female college student Liu Xiaohong.
In the play, Liu Xiaohong was hurt by her love and wanted to take her light life, ge You went to enlighten her, but she just played with her hair and did not appreciate it.
The action is natural, and the temperament between the hands and feet is elegant, so that Ge You of Xie Ding is consciously filthy on the side.
Her lips are red and her teeth are white, her beautiful eyes are full of tenderness, and she smiles with a pair of pure pear swirls. Although it's only a few scenes. But the image is skillful and impressive.
I heard that after the TV broadcast, once Wang Lan took a taxi, the driver recognized her, and refused to accept her money, which shows how good the passers-by are.
In 1992, she also appeared on "Variety Show", a program that at that time, it was known as "inviting big bowls and creating high-quality products". The guests who were at the same time as her were Zhao Benshan, Mao Amin, etc., and the weight of the weight was evident.
In the show, she and Feng Gong partnered to perform the sketch "Rong", and she played Feng Gong's ex-wife.
Wang Lan wore a green shoulder-padded suit and pulled up his hair in a bun, before the temperament of the neighbor became a lot more mature, and the gentle and atmospheric appearance was really what it looked like.
It is reasonable to say that Wang Lan's star path was also opened in this way, but because of one thing, Wang Lan's life was completely changed.
02
Miss it once, or it will become a lifetime regret
After Wang Lan entered the public eye, he was favored by many directors. One of them is Zhao Baogang, a young director who has just entered the jianghu at that time, and after "The Story of the Screenwriting Department", he has always had a good impression of Wang Lan.
In 1994, Zhao Baogang deliberately found Wang Lan and invited her to star in the female number one of the TV series "Addiction", "I am making a new play, ready to leave the female one to you, first say hello to you, don't find anyone when the time comes." ”
For Wang Lan, who was still a student, this was already a big card face, and she was naturally happy to agree.
Zhao Baogang used enough heart for this TV series, blending Wang Shuo's three classic works together to create a new explosive story.
The feminine and cold heroine, the handsome and uninhibited Wenqing male protagonist, this combination is a hot spot now.
However, because the preliminary preparation of this TV series was a little long, it was forgotten by Wang Lan.
At this time, Zhao Baogang still kept his promise to leave the female number one to Wang Lan, but this heroine signed another film directed by Huang Jianxin, "Five Kui".
Wang Zhiwen had reminded her at that time that this was not a trivial matter, and it still had to be thought through.
At that time, Wang Lan was still too young to understand the stakes. Only to say that director Huang Jianxin and Huang Jianxin have signed in black and white, can not push.
But in fact, this matter is not completely irreparable, after all, it was only a verbal agreement at the beginning, Wang Lan, a fledgling little girl, forgot to be forgiven.
But no matter what the reason, the pigeon director, at least have to sincerely compensate is not, but Wang Lan will not come to the matter, after making such a scene, he does not know that he did not immediately apologize and submit soft.
Originally the act of releasing pigeons made people angry, afterwards did not think so, this shelved who is not angry, Director Zhao Baogang is no exception, but also specially sent a long article to satirize Wang Lan, saying that some actresses are too much in the director's fame halo, only to chase fame and profit, do not talk about credibility.
For insiders, Wang Lan is just a budding little girl, and Zhao Baogang is a promising director, this team direction is already obvious, Wang Lan will also miss a lot of invisible opportunities for this.
But Wang Lan did not care, at that time, she was counting on being able to catch fire with "Five Kui".
This film is an adaptation of Jia Pingwa's novel of the same name, because the style is similar to Zhang Yimou's "Red Sorghum", and it is favored by many people. After all, the success of "Red Sorghum" is obvious to all.
But the results are very realistic, and the response to the movie after it was launched was mediocre, and there was no splash.
The irony is that the "Addiction" that was dropped by Wang Lange was a mess, and the director Zhao Baogang became one of the famous directors, and Jiang Shan, who succeeded the female number one, also became popular and became a national goddess.
At the beginning, that role was tailor-made for Wang Lan, and the final selection of Jiang Shan's appearance and temperament was also similar to her, if you did not miss it, Wang Lan's reputation would be how big it would be.
It really has to be lamented that even if some people are chased by God to feed, she can knock over the rice bowl.
03
Due to illness, he withdrew from the circle again
At first, Wang Lan may only be thinking that she missed an opportunity, she is still young, and there are still many opportunities in life.
What she didn't know was that once fate was off course, she didn't know which direction it would fly.
Missing the opportunity to become a hit and offending the director, Although Wang Lan's star path was not completely cut off, it also began to fade and sink.
Not much fame has also offended director Zhao Baogang, no one dares to throw any olive branch to her, and the plays that she participated in after that are also some supporting roles, the play itself has no splash, the supporting roles are naturally more obscure, and the opportunity to appear in the public eye is getting less and less. Wang Lan's career did not start for long, and he officially fell into a trough period.
Wang Lan's acting skills are actually good, but he never waited for an opportunity.
In 2003, Wang Lan starred in Gu Changwei's "Peacock", playing a lame girl Jin Zhi.
Lead actor Zhang Jingchu praised Wang Lan's acting skills, and when she introduced Wang Lan, she also laughed and said, "The last time director Xu Ke watched "Peacock", he was amazed by Jin Zhi, and he also came to ask me whether Jin Zhi was really crippled or fake lame. ”
But even if the acting skills are pure, or not recognized by the audience, Wang Lan carefully portrays each role, but there is no chance to make her fire.
Perhaps discouraged by his own acting career, Wang Lan began to turn behind the scenes.
A year of behind-the-scenes experience has given Wang Lan a temporary rest, and also made her more certain of her love for acting. The following year she decided to make a comeback.
But what kind of place is the entertainment industry, climbing up steadily in the circle may not be able to make a name for itself, which is naturally more left behind by the audience. Wang Lan was also completely forgotten by the audience.
But she has a strong spirit of not accepting defeat in her nature, and she will not give up lightly after deciding to come back. As long as she is allowed to enter the crew, she is willing to do miscellaneous work, and she is also willing to do the work that others are not willing to do. Just stayed up like this for a few years.
Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain, and this tenacity made her usher in the second spring of her career.
In 2005, she starred in the TV series "20 Years of Love" starring Jiang Wu, in which she played Kong Lingqin, a woman who loves to mix. She portrays the excessive enthusiasm on the surface of the role and the helplessness behind the sadness, and her acting skills are recognized by the director and the audience.
The happy cooperation in "Rong" that year made Feng Gong still fresh in his memory, and in 2006, he invited Wang Lan to participate in his own New Year movie "Don't Take Yourself as an Improper Cadre", and after ten years of separation, the two played the husband and wife file again.
This film tells the story of Tianjin people, and the requirements are also in the Tianjin dialect, so Wang Lan also practiced Tianjin dialect.
There is a scene where Wang Lan tells Feng Gong the story of a fortune teller in Tianjin dialect, and a large part of it is a twister line such as "Fei Mu is a female Fei Fei female (non-male is female and non-female is male)", always because it is almost a little bit and then started again, giving Wang Lan a sweat of urgency.
It was not easy for Wang Lan to shout after the end, but he also understood the importance of language.
Under their strict requirements and hard work, after the release of this film, it received a lot of praise.
When Wang Lan walks on the streets of Tianjin, someone often recognizes her and greets her.
Wang Lan's career finally came to the right track at her insistence, and she originally thought that everything was slowly getting better, but fate gave her a surprise at this time - she had cancer.
Because of overwork in recent years, Wang Lan often feels dizzy when she is on the set, and she only thinks that she is too tired or malnourished and does not pay attention to it.
Once, after the crew fainted, she was sent to the hospital for examination and learned that she had a malignant tumor on her thyroid gland.
Forced by the helplessness of reality, Wang Lan had to quit the entertainment circle again.
04
Don't be afraid of illness, laugh at life
However, Wang Lan's mentality has always been very good, when she was pushed into the operating room, Wang Lan was still asleep, making the anesthesiologist cry and laugh, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether she had anesthesia or not.
After the operation, he also actively cooperated with the treatment, and after two years, Wang Lan finally defeated the disease.
Although she broke free from the threat of cancer, because she had to take a lot of drugs when recuperating, the drugs contained various hormones, which brought side effects to Wang Lan's body, and her appearance changed greatly.
Her figure was so blessed that many people could not recognize her, and some people ridiculed her, saying that she had changed from Zhong Chuhong to Han Hong.
Everyone has a heart for beauty, not to mention an actress in the entertainment industry.
Wang Lan also had a long time, and was depressed by the influence of his figure, and he was even reluctant to go out.
She once confessed in an interview that during that time she only wanted to escape from reality, and the most common thing to do every day was to be in a daze, and sometimes a daze was a whole day.
She said that during that time, the mirror was not illuminated, because she did not dare to see her once slim and beautiful self, but now she has become a fat woman, and this psychological gap is really difficult to calm down.
She has also tried to lose weight, but with little success. She thought that the only thing that could save her now was to change her mentality.
During this time, she thought a lot about life, including the performances she loved.
She also thought about giving up many times, but she still couldn't make up her mind. In the end, she decided to step into the entertainment industry again and restart her acting career.
Since the figure can't go back, accept yourself. The show business circle is not only the role of a young girl, maybe she can try something else.
In 2007, she starred in the TV series "Four Worlds Together" remade of Mr. Lao She's novel of the same name, in which she played a role as a bloated woman with a very direct name, called Fat Juzi.
At that time, although Wang Lan was already obese, in order to better perform the role of fat Juzi, Wang Lan also chose to gain weight, for actors with external requirements, such a self-destructive image of the pay is really not everyone can do.
This is the first work of Wang Lan's comeback after illness, and her image change has surprised many people, but what is even more surprising is Wang Lan's acting skills.
Even after a few years away from the entertainment industry, her acting skills are still online, portraying the character's greed, stinginess and other human weaknesses to the fullest, and Wang Lan's new drama road has been opened.
05
Accept yourself and start experimenting
From the Peugeot heroine of that year to the supporting role of the aunt circle, the mother professional household. It's not like the scenery of the year, but it's also a good new attempt.
In 2009, she starred in Zhang Yuemei in "The War of the Old Cow Family", partnering Zhang Hongjie.
In 2010, he partnered with Duan Yihong and Jiang Qinqin to cooperate in "Big Times".
In 2012, he participated in the cultural comedy "The Art of War Village", playing a village woman Wang Chunlan.
In 2014, she made a cameo appearance in "A Spoon", in which she played a woman who sold melon seeds, and the clothes she wore were still taken off by Chen Jianbin from the market, and the real melon seeds sellers took off for her to wear.
Wang Lan's acting career is getting better and better, and in 2015, she won the best actress in the Irkuts International Film Festival for "Ili River". She has proved to us from her own experience that the most important thing for a good actor is acting skills.
Subsequently, she played the county magistrate's wife Sun Dazu in the TV series "Red Sorghum", and Zhang Jiayi's ex-wife Shi Hui in "One Servant and Two Lords", who repeatedly staged a child-snatching scene with Yan Ni in the play, and the fierce drama between the two also made the audience directly addicted.
In 2020's "The Most Beautiful Retrograde", Wang Lan played Xiao Zhan's mother in the play, on the surface constantly nagging her son, but behind her is to see her son as pride, such a realistic interpretation, so that many netizens said as if they saw their mother, let her circle a lot of fans.
Her drama path and resources seem to have stabilized, although unlike in those days, there can be a customized version of the heroine script, but the invitation of supporting roles is also continuous.
No matter what the role, she is also very careful to interpret.
Wang Lan's life is low-key, or it may be because there is no protagonist play and is not well known to the audience. But her reputation and acting skills are among the best in the circle.
In recent years, she has begun to take fewer roles and leave more time for her family, and she only participates in scripts that she feels are very suitable.
In her newly posted social dynamics, she is shopping with her mother, and the words overflow with positive optimism.
Although Wang Lan's experience makes our audience can't help but sigh and create people, Fanghua's peerless beauty heroine, because once less is not more, it is lost with the brilliant and promising life.
Her brave character makes her fearless, and the new life that she has bought so hard by perseverance and hardship is once again interrupted by illness.
But life will never be smooth, and the big names in the entertainment industry have also climbed and climbed to their current position. No matter how many setbacks Wang Lan has survived, now life is happy, it is the best ending, the most wonderful life.
