At the beginning of this year, a "human world" blew a strong "northeast wind" on the screen.
After the broadcast of this TV series focusing on Jichun in Northeast China, it not only set a new high in CCTV in the past 8 years, the popularity of the video platform exceeded 10,000, and the reputation of Douban also soared to 8.1 points.
14 years ago, there was also a TV series related to the northeast region that won the attention and love of the majority of audiences.
It is "Breaking into the Guandong" co-directed by Zhang Xinjian and Kong Sheng.
In order to truly reproduce the desolate and tragic history of shandong people in Kanto, the drama can be described as painstaking in the process of creation and production.
Screenwriter Gao Mantang is the descendant of Chuang Kanto, he and another screenwriter Sun Jianye spent more than ten months, traveled to four provinces to interview hundreds of people, and changed their drafts six times before completing the script of "Breaking into Kanto".
Among the main creative personnel, including cameras, art, lighting, etc., they are all composed of the original team of "The Great Dye Factory".
In addition, the film crew also traveled to Heilongjiang, Shandong, Shanghai, Jiangsu and other places for real-life shooting, with more than 150 representative historical scenes and a cost of 40 million yuan.
The hard work of the main creative team was not in vain, and the rating of the drama broke through 11% once it was broadcast, refreshing the new high of the CCTV new year drama.
Although in the past 14 years, "Breaking into the Kanto" with a Douban score of 9.3 is still talked about by the audience and regarded as an insurmountable national drama.
In the "Human World" at the beginning of the year, Sarina, Song Jia, Huang Xiaolei and other Kanto actors reunited again to present a performance feast.
14 years later, the situation of several leading actors is very different, this article we will talk about the behind-the-scenes story and current situation of the actors of this drama.
01. Li Youbin (as Zhu Kaishan)
The character who supports the Zhu family in the play is Zhu Kaishan, played by Li Youbin.
Zhu Kaishan has both the simplicity and thickness of Shandong men and the boldness and directness of Northeast men, and under Li Youbin's brilliant interpretation, this role has become flesh and blood, which is impressive.
For the actor of Zhu Kaishan, after the screenwriter Gao Mantang and others held a meeting, the most suitable person who came to mind was Li Youbin.
When the director and producer invited him to play the role, Li Youbin did not agree at first, because he considered shooting in the ice and snow of the northeast.
But he still read the script carefully, and he didn't expect to love it at this look, whether it was the plot or the characters, which fascinated him.
The conditions of the filming environment of "Breaking into Kanto" are indeed as harsh as Li Youbin worries, and he often wears only a single suit to catch up with the night scene in cold weather.
It is precisely because of his hard work that Zhu Kaishan's role has received a lot of praise, although it is not as pleasing as Li Yunlong, but Li Youbin's acting skills are more amazing.
Especially the scene where episode 52 learns that the second son Zhu Chuanwu is dead, from the initial disbelief, to the forced holding back tears, and finally the tears when he is alone.
Li Youbin meticulously interpreted Zhu Kaishan's psychological changes, which made the audience also move emotionally.
With the two dramas "Bright Sword" and "Breaking into the Kanto", Li Youbin successfully sat on the throne of "TV Brother".
After that, he successively starred in dramas such as "Red Sun" and "Qipao", although he gained a good reputation, it was difficult to regain the glory of the past.
Just as the so-called "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He", Xu is the image of Li Yunlong and Zhu Kaishan is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Li Youbin was instead stereotyped, and most of the roles played after that were really regrettable.
However, it is rare for an actor to leave such a classic role on the screen.
Today, Li Youbin is 64 years old, still playing about it, and starred in two plays "Invisible Blade" and "How Big Can It Be" at the beginning of the year alone.
For the label of "old drama bone" given by the outside world, he did not dare to be it, and felt that he was not good enough.
02, Sarina (as Wen Ta Niang)
Before playing Zhu Kaishan Kennesuke "Wen Ta Niang", Sarina created a lot of mother images.
So in the audience's impression, she seems to have never been young, but in fact, she was also a dignified and beautiful beauty when she was young.
However, Sarina, who graduated from the theater in 1989, was still rejected by many crews because of the limitations of her appearance.
For 6 years, she was a housewife. It was not until the age of 27 that he received his first play, "The Tree of Niu Yuqin", and his first role was that of a mother of three children.
At that time, although Sarina was married to her classmate Pan Jun, she had not yet become a mother, but she became acquainted with this image and opened the way for her "mother professional household".
According to incomplete statistics, in less than 20 years, Sarina has played more than 35 mother roles, most of whom are rural women in the north.
With the careful shaping of the role and the understanding of motherhood accumulated over the years, she has played various mother roles appropriately and touched countless audiences.
Especially in "Breaking into the Kanto Region", Wen Ta Niang, she not only performed the kindness and strength of her mother, but also interpreted the heartache and ups and downs endured by rural women in the background of that era.
Her good acting skills have made her once again affirmed by the authoritative award, and after "The Watch of Emotions", Sarina has once again become the queen of the Feitian Awards with the role of "Wen Ta Niang".
Years of acting skills have made her play her mother more and more relaxed, including Li Suhua, who played in "The World" this year.
The role of Li Suhua was played by Sarina intimately and movingly, which resonated with countless viewers and found the shadow of her mother.
Sarina has been diligent for 27 years, and for her, she is proud to play the role of mother.
Next, she also has "Unexpected Arrival", "Love Full of Nine Bends", "Hakka", "I want to go against the wind" and many other works are about to meet with the audience, still highly prolific.
03. Liu Xiangjing (as Zhu Chuanwen)
Zhu Chuanwen, played by Liu Xiangjing, is the eldest son of Zhu Kaishan, a typical Chinese-style old farmer, simple and loyal, honest and honest, but people hate iron and steel.
It can be said that Liu Xiangjing portrayed Zhu Chuanwen's cowardly and unassertioned side very realistically, making the audience very engaged.
Liu Xiangjing, a native of Shaanxi, graduated from the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts, made his official debut in 1996, starring in his first film " White Horse Flying".
In the next few years, he successively participated in dramas such as "Never Let You Go", "Big River East Go", "Serious Case Six Groups 2" and so on, but he never caught fire.
Until he met the drama "Breaking into the Kanto", with the high enthusiasm of the audience to chase the drama, Liu Xiangjing also began to be well known.
After that, he successively starred in dramas such as "The Happy Past of the Old Ma Family", "Iron Brothers", "Old Farmer", "Qingdao Past" and other dramas, and gradually became a powerful actor.
After experiencing various lives in the play, Liu Xiangjing's life is very low-key, and many people do not even know that he is married.
Liu Xiangjing and his wife Shao Meifang met on a blind date, and in 2013 the two married in Beijing in a low-key manner, and a year later Shao Meifang gave birth to a son.
Today, the two have been married for 9 years, spent seven years of itching, and are still in love as before.
In addition to filming, Liu Xiangjing also shares his daily life on social platforms from time to time, sunbathing food, advocating public welfare and so on.
Although it has not been able to continue to be popular, this state of quiet years can be regarded as another kind of consummation.
04, Niu Li (as Na Wen)
To say that the impressive female characters in "Breaking into Kanto" are absolutely indispensable to Nawen and Xian'er.
Na Wen was a declining royal gege with a bit of a "two" personality, and was introduced by his disgraced uncle and married Zhu Chuanwen, the eldest son of Zhu Kaishan, as a daughter-in-law.
Niu Li, who has acted in many sketches, has her own sense of comedy, and the adaptation to this role is very high, and she has contributed a lot of laughs in the play.
Before becoming an actress, Niu Li was an excellent athlete in China and a double champion of synchronized swimming and shooting.
At the age of 11, she joined the synchronized swimming team and won the first women's synchronized swimming team championship in 1986.
At the age of 15, Niu Li transferred to the Bayi Shooting Team, became teammates with Wang Yifu and Li Xianghong, and won the all-army shooting championship in 1990.
However, the shooting team was disbanded for some reason, and Niu Li had to end her sports career. Later, she was admitted to the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts and turned to an actress.
In 1991, Niu Li starred in the first film "Armageddon", and then with her own efforts, she created many classic roles.
For example, Xiaolin in "I Love My Home", Pan Qiaoyun in "Water Margin", Thirteen Aunts in "Divorce" and so on.
Not only that, she was also nominated for the Feitian Award and the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress for the TV series "Empty Mirror".
In 2003, Niu Li and Huang Hong teamed up to bring the skit "Foot Therapy" at the Spring Festival Gala, and the wonderful performance made the audience laugh.
After that, Niu Li appeared on the Stage of the Spring Festival Gala 7 times, bringing a series of wonderful skits to the audience.
Accomplished in her acting career, she married shortly after graduation, and her husband Liu Yadong is 7 years older than her and is a private entrepreneur with a net worth of more than 100 million.
In recent years, Niu Li has reduced the frequency of filming, only shooting one or two works a year, focusing on family and life.
Not long ago, when Jin Dong and Li Xiaoran's new drama "Lin Shen Sees The Deer" was broadcast, she also appeared on the screen after a long time.
05. Zhu Yawen (as Zhu Chuanwu)
Zhu Chuanwu is the second son of Zhu Kaishan, he is uninhibited, dares to love and dare to hate, from a stubborn teenager to a bandit to a patriotic general, full of legendary life attracted many viewers.
For this role, the audience loves and hates, on the one hand, he has affection and righteousness for Xian'er, extremely wild and fighting spirit; On the other hand, he is almost cold to Xiu'er, reckless and reckless.
Under the interpretation of Zhu Yawen, known as the "walking hormone", the role of Zhu Chuanwu is even more impressive.
Before starring in "Breaking into kanto", Zhu Yawen had just graduated from Nortel and could become the main actor in the play, which was also a coincidence.
At that time, he accompanied his girlfriend to the crew to send information, and as a result, he was favored by director Zhang Xinjian and participated in this drama.
Originally, Director Zhang wanted Zhu Yawen to play the third son Zhu Chuanjie, but after seeing his makeup test, he immediately changed to Zhu Chuanwu's first choice.
When he first filmed, Zhu Yawen frantically studied the script every day, chatted with the opponent actors, and pulled the director to change the play, which also got the nickname of "Zhu Thinking".
In the original script, Zhu Chuanwu and Xian'er eventually got married. But when the filming officially began, Zhu Yawen felt that the two should not get married, and since it was painful, it would be thorough.
He told the director Kong Sheng about this idea, and later presented it to the audience to see that Zhu Chuanwu rushed to the battlefield and promised to marry Xian'er again after returning.
After the broadcast of "Breaking into the Guandong", the ratings exploded, and Zhu Yawen also received widespread attention, becoming another screen tough guy after Hu Jun and Hou Yong.
In the following years, he successively brought good works such as "The Flying Eagle Who Went Away", "Our French Years", "Under the Gate of Zhengyang", "Red Sorghum" and so on.
Zhu Yawen is not only a good actor, but also a good husband, although he has a handsome face, but his love history is very clean.
His wife, Shen Jiani, is also an insider, and the two fell in love for four years and married in 2013.
Nowadays, zhu Yawen spends most of his time on the family in addition to filming, and the social platform painting style is the standard "spoiled wife crazy demon" and "daughter slave".
06. Song Jia (as Xian'er)
Xian Er can be said to be the most tragic female character in the whole play, and her ill-fated fate touches the hearts of many viewers.
On the way to the Kanto, she experienced a series of major encounters such as being forced to marry as a child bride, being abused by the squire bully, going up the mountain as a bandit, and resisting Japan.
Emotionally, Xian'er has also suffered several times. In the beginning, she was Zhu Chuanwen's fiancée, and in order to save Chuanwen, she was forced to become the adopted daughter-in-law of the Zhang family.
After she and Chuanwen were separated, she developed feelings for Chuanwu, who had re-met, and when she was about to cultivate positive results, Chuanwu died again because of the anti-Japanese resistance.
Who can master this challenging role has become a difficult problem in front of director Zhang Xinjian.
For the actors of Xian'er, Zhang Xinjian first considered Shandong actresses, and at first he was optimistic about Chen Hao and Zhu Yuanyuan, but neither of them had a suitable schedule.
This gave Song Jia the opportunity to star, when she volunteered herself and carved the scene with Hu Jun on the rooftop in the movie "Curiosity Kills the Cat" into a CD-ROM and showed it to the director.
Coupled with her tall height and very bold personality, Zhang Xinjian weighed it up and decided to play Song Jia to play Xian'er.
In order to play this role well, Song Jia did a lot of homework and read a lot of information about "Breaking into Kanto".
The shooting conditions were harsh, and she persevered, and there was a scene in which Xian'er jumped into the river, and she plunged into the cold water without saying a word.
On the shore, Song Jia was afraid that she would catch a cold and affect the progress of the shooting, and drank half a bottle of two pots in one gulp.
It is precisely because of the hard work to study the role, Song Jia finally played such a legendary woman as Xian'er.
After "Breaking into kanto", Song Jia ushered in the golden age of her acting career, starring in works such as "Cliff", "Xiao Hong", "Young Marshal", "There is a cloud made of rain in the wind" and so on.
Among them, "Cliff" and "Xiao Hong" made her a magnolia queen and a golden rooster shadow queen respectively.
In the past year, Song Jia is also very prolific, with TV dramas such as "Xiao Shede", "Human World" and "Dressage", and the movies have "Sunshine Robber", "Chinese Doctor" and "1921".
Compared with the prosperity of her career, Song Jia's love life is full of twists and turns, and now at the age of 41, she is still single and unmarried.
07. Qi Kui (as Zhu Chuanjie)
Qi Kui, who plays the third son, Zhu Chuanjie, is a classmate of Zhu Yawen. Originally, it was decided that he would play Zhu Chuanwu and Zhu Yawen would play the third elder.
In comparison, Zhu Chuanwu was better equipped, so Qi Kui was very happy, and he did not expect that the next day he would receive a notice to change corners.
This made Zikui unable to accept it, and he was ready not to act at that time.
When Sarina heard about it, she called to persuade her.
Sarina told Zikui that Mountain Shadow is a good platform, the production of dramas is also very sophisticated, "Breaking into Kanto" is a rare opportunity for graduate newcomers, which saves him.
It turns out that Sarina's persistence was right, and Zikui, who was originally not well-known, was remembered by the audience for "Breaking into kanto".
Like Zhu Yawen, Qi Kui's family is also very happy.
His wife, Guo Lina, is also a powerful actress, who won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Supporting Actress for the movie "Shocking Sand".
Qi Kui and Guo Lina are fellow villagers in the northeast, and they met and fell in love at the art school. In 2007, the two ended their love affair and ran into the marriage hall.
In order to make a home in Beijing, Qi Kui tried to take over the play. With the popularity of "Breaking into kanto", he also began to become popular in the country.
Zhu Chuanjie, played by Qi Kui, does not have the cowardice of the eldest brother, nor does he have the hairiness of the second brother, but is a shrewd and capable businessman with courage and insight.
Although they all became famous by "Breaking into the Kanto", Qi Kui's career luck was not as good as Zhu Yawen's, and he always took the route of a golden supporting role.
For example, Han Zegang in "Dajiang Dahe 2" and the climax in the recent "Police Honor", he acted well and left a deep impression on the audience.
Today, in addition to filming, the 40-year-old Qi Kui spends more time on the family, and the life of a family of four is low-key and happy.
08. Liang Linlin (as Xiu'er)
Liang Linlin's acting career has a high starting point, and "Bright Sword" is the first play she starred in after entering the industry.
In the play, Liang Linlin plays Li Yunlong's first wife, Yang Xiuqin. Although there are not many scenes, it is very brilliant, and the county building of Ping'an County let Old Li open the cannon, and the bravery and righteousness are touching.
"Breaking into the Kanto" is her second cooperation with Li Youbin, but this time she plays the role of Li Youbin's "second daughter-in-law Xiu'er".
This is also a tragic female character, married to Zhu Chuanwu but can not get his love in her life, so she is not allowed to become a partner with Ichiro, and the other party leaves her early.
Liang Linlin's calm and delicate performance interprets the role of Xiu'er very movingly.
After relying on "Bright Sword" and "Breaking into Kanto", she has starred in many film and television dramas, such as "Love in the Great Wilderness", "Old Farmer", "Great Shanghai 1931" and so on.
After that, Liang Linlin's works were fewer, and it was not until the past two years that she gradually returned to the public eye, making cameos in some works such as "Ideal City" and "Canal Flow", but the attention of the role was not high.
09. Huang Xiaolei (as Xia Yushu)
In "Breaking into The Guandong", Huang Xiaolei plays Xia Yushu, the daughter-in-law of Zhu Chuanjie, who is a virtuous and knowledgeable woman.
She is open-minded, pursues progress, helps her husband to do business, and once persuaded her second sister-in-law Xiu'er to divorce her emotionless husband Zhu Chuanwu.
Huang Xiaolei, who has always been known for her silly style, transformed into an intellectual woman this time, allowing the audience to see the diversity of her acting skills.
Huang Xiaolei originally debuted with the costume romance drama "Love Treasure Book", and then starred in the "Silly Girl" in "The Legend of the Eagle Hero" and was well known to the public.
In 2006, she had a small achievement in the film and television circle, and served as the host of the "Super Big Winner" program.
With the popularity of "Breaking into the Kanto", Huang Xiaolei has received more and more attention, and she has successively starred in film and television works such as "Man Lives a Face", "Love in the Great Wilderness", "Big Life", "People on the Road" and so on.
Huang Xiaolei, who is bold and has a hot personality, is also emotionally hot, has rejected Du Chun, and has fallen in love with Zhang Wei.
In 2014, Huang Xiaolei went on a blind date of more than 200 people in 38 days, and finally married Liu Lei, who was engaged in financial business, and gave birth to a daughter "Shanbao" in the same year.
However, she has a double harvest of career and family, but because of the incident of being blocked by Disney in 2017, her popularity has dropped sharply.
However, Huang Xiaolei, who has always relied on her acting skills to speak, quickly saved her image with works such as "Touring Inspection Team" and "Surging Crowds".
After the broadcast of "The World of Man" at the beginning of the year, Huang Xiaolei, who played Qiao Chunyan, was affirmed by the audience and proved her acting skills.
"Riding the Wind and Waves Season 3" once again made her pay attention, although the first game was eliminated, but Huang Xiaolei's bold and spicy personality still circled a lot of fans.
10. Jin Dong (as Ichiro Kameda)
When young audiences archaeologize the drama "Breaking into kanto", it is often surprising that "old cadre" Jin Dong also starred.
His character is a Japanese man who is connected by being saved by Xiu'er and the Zhu family, and the scenes are mainly concentrated in the later stages, and later recognized by Zhu Kaishan as an adopted son. If you look at the ranking of actors announced by Douban, Jin Dong's position is ranked no. 6 in male.
At that time, Jin Dong, who starred as Ichiro Kameda, had a clear eyebrow and a clear eyebrow, and did not have a little old cadre style.
He has a good performance in "Breaking into Kanto", so he has entered the vision of more audiences and obtained more opportunities for attention in the industry.
In the seven years since, Jin Dong has starred in a number of TV series, including high-quality dramas such as "Wenzhou Family" and "Battle Changsha".
At the same time, he also honed his acting skills on the drama stage, and with the Golden Lion Award and other awards leaning over, Jin Dong finally ushered in the opportunity to become popular.
In 2015, the TV series "The Pretender" was broadcast, and the 39-year-old Jin Dong successfully entered the ranks of first-line actors with the role of Ming Lou.
Subsequent works such as "Langya List", "Ode to Joy", and "The First Half of My Life" further consolidated Jin Dong's popularity.
His heroic and upright appearance and the temperament of "old cadres" have indeed touched many people, especially middle-aged women, and there have been news reports of fanatical "big mother fans" who have been deceived because of their infatuation with Jin Dong.
Today's Jin Dong has become the spokesperson of the domestic drama elite, and the role types in dramas such as "Surgical Storm", "Mr. Love", and "If the Years Can Be Turned Back" are very similar.
Including the new drama "Lin Shen Sees the Deer" that he is now cooperating with Li Xiaoran, Lin Shaotao, who is played by him, is also a "preaching elite" image with a straight suit and a messy hairstyle.
Next, Jin Dong will also have a number of works to meet the audience, including the spy war drama "Infinity" cooperated with Wang Zhiwen.
Although it is a TV series that ordinary people love to watch, whether Jin Dong can take this opportunity to enhance his reputation may depend on the quality and effect of the broadcast of the series.
In addition to Li Youbin, Sarina and several young leading actors, there are many golden supporting roles in "Breaking into Kanto".
For example, Ma Enran's Han Laohai, Wang Kuirong's Pan Wuye, Gao Ming's Morita, Bi Yanjun's Xia Yuanzhang, Bao Guoan's Tan Yongqing, Ding Jiali's Big Black Lady, Liu Jinshan's Wu Treasurer, and so on.
These characters are good or bad, without their background, the story of the Zhu family would not be so wonderful.
Under the joint shaping of these actors, the character image of "Breaking into Kanto" has become flesh and blood, which has aroused strong resonance from the audience.
Well, the above is the latest situation of the actors in "Breaking into Kanto" 14 years later.
At that time, a crew of people, now after running to things, the gap is also clear at a glance, there are those at the tip of the pyramid, there are peaks that fall, and there are ordinary lives.
