How did an ordinary passerby become a brilliant special actor? Let's take a look at the actress Chen Yan, first of all, because of her own advantages, she was born with a face that is somewhat similar to that of a great man, and since she was a child, she has heard many people around her relish it, saying that she has a star face. At the beginning, Chen Yan only laughed and laughed.
As she grew older, more people came into contact with her, and friends around her suggested that she could really play a great man, her inner acting flame was eager to move, and at the age of 50, she made a major decision in life.
Secondly, after she decided to embark on the path of a special actor, in the process of playing a great man, in addition to overcoming the difficulties of role playing, she also had to eliminate many psychological obstacles that came with it. The audience's opinions, discussions, and evaluations have made her hesitate, anxious, and wandering, and has also slowed down the pace of her acting path. But in the end, she tried to persevere because of her sincere respect for the great man, which slowly and invisibly dispelled the fog in her heart, so that she could see the dawn again, the brightest red sun in the East.
In 2006, by chance, she saw that Southeast TV had a imitation show, so she plucked up the courage to sign up. The program team only let her imitate Tang Guoqiang, although she did not get the recognition of the judges for this performance, but after returning to her hometown, she was liked by the public, and the people of her hometown regained her self-confidence. As a makeup artist friend of the Mianyang Song and Dance Troupe, chen Yan suggested that Chen Yan directly play the great man, and the image was closer, so the female version of the great man image in front of everyone was born.
Chen Yan is only 1.53 meters tall, while the great man is 1.8 meters tall, in order to fully reflect the momentum of the great man pointing out the country, he did not hesitate to spend more than 10,000 yuan to customize leather shoes, wearing 30 cm high heels every day. At the same time, in order to get closer to the great human body, he gave up weight loss and modified the body shape with wide clothes.
Although the facial features are somewhat similar, iconic features, such as moles on the face, eyebrow shape, hairstyle and other details, also need to be carefully depicted and decorated by makeup artists. Each appearance requires spending 4 or 5 hours in advance to make up, often starting to prepare in the early morning, and the cost of costume makeup is 2,000 yuan. In order to pursue the god-like, she also picked up a cigarette and posed the classic action of a great man to the camera, and the charm was excellent.
In order to work in the direction of the dream of a special actor, she has overcome many difficulties and obstacles, until now her family is strongly opposed, mainly including the problem of anti-string, the problem of age, and the fear of the influence of the masses.
Indeed, Chen Yan also has doubts and worries about this, but the relevant departments of the local government in Mianyang are very supportive of her, believing that this is a good thing, which brings Chen Yan greater confidence and prompts her to make up her mind to do a good job in this acting career. On November 6, 2006, he officially embarked on the stage of acting as a great leader, and a new milestone was born.
With full enthusiasm and love for the great leader, Chen Yan, faced with many difficulties on the road of acting, did her best to find ways to overcome them, so that her image was closer to that of a great man, hoping that more people would recognize her performance.
In the face of the audience's mixed reviews, her mentality is also quietly changing. She often repeatedly observed the glorious image of the great man in previous film and television dramas, carefully and carefully pondered the leader's demeanor and actions, and repeatedly revised and practiced in front of the mirror every day. Accumulated over time, the display of hands and feet adds more charm. In the follow-up performance, the praise and applause from the stage were more and more, and everyone's evaluation of her was getting higher and better, and finally she became popular as a great leader.
She believes that as long as she persists in going, after the audience's recognition is getting higher and higher, her career will eventually flourish, but Chen Yan still has an unspeakable secret in her heart, from her family, because her husband is very distressed about her career.
After becoming famous, she always maintains the most basic cultural literacy and morality of an actor, and she has her own principle for undertaking commercial performances: it must be a regular organization, and have standardized business conditions and invitation procedures. Singing is allowed when appearing as an imitator in civilian clothes; when in full costume, only movements are not made, smoking, waving, and looking directly into the distance to meditate.
In order to realize her dream, she made a lot of efforts, and finally let the world see her success, we did not have the privilege of living in that era when we could fight side by side with great people, failed to witness the style of great people, and could only interpret through film and television, photos and videos that remained.
With the development of the mainland performing arts industry, special actors were originally a way for Chinese people to commemorate their ancestors and remember the past, and with the death and retirement of the older generation of performing artists, the demand for special actors will gradually decrease.
The diversified development of some entertainers, the living space of these special actors, with the innovation of special effects and makeup technology, has been compressed and reduced, and the industry is gradually coming to an end. We should support and cherish the existing small number of special actors, and those entertainers who dare to take a step forward in public opinion and always maintain their original intentions are more worthy of everyone's admiration.
At the age of 65, when I walk down the street, some people will quietly talk about "This woman looks like a great man!" Hearing these voices, Chen Yan will always think of the unforgettable times when she played a great man." The mountain is high and the road is far from the pit deep. The army is galloping. Who dares to cross the knife? I am General Peng. Chen Yan couldn't help but blurt out this line of magnificent mountains and rivers. We should look in awe at the image of every great pioneer who has been "resurrected" on the screen.
