Among them, Wang Dani, a new actress who was shortlisted for the biographical film "Mei Yanfang", played the protagonist Mei Yanfang in the movie, and was nominated for best actress and best new actor, and successfully won the best new actor award for her first time in the film, which is well deserved.
Before participating in the movie "Mei Yanfang", Wang Danni was a model and had never had acting experience. She signed a contract with a Milanese modeling agency in her teens, went abroad to do fashion, worked hard for her career, and then decided to return to Hong Kong because she was pregnant. After giving birth to her daughter, Wang Dani found that she was incompatible with her boyfriend's personality, but since she grew up in a single-parent family, Wang Dani hoped to give her daughter a "complete family" and struggled whether to break up, but finally she decided to separate. Wang Dani once said frankly: "Single-parent families have regrets, but I have the confidence to give her double love." ”
After giving birth to her daughter, Wang Dani put her time on her daughter and work, and once thought that she would not fall in love again. However, after meeting Luo Xiaoyong, they brought unexpected surprises, not only did they hit it off, Wang Dani also said: "When he pursued me, he had already put Affa (daughter) in his heart, and after they were together, he also played the role of father." ”
And Luo Xiaoyong also revealed that he and Wang Dani would already take Affa with him in the early days, like a three-person family, and as early as before marriage, Affa also called himself "Daddy", which was very warm. He confessed that he admired Wang Danni's love and understanding of taking care of people, and he had long identified the other party as a partner who looked good, hoping to grow old with Wang Dani. Wang Dani and Luo Xiaoyong also completed their marriage in December 2020, and Affa, who originally followed her mother's surname, also changed her father's surname after Wang Dani married Luo Xiaoyong.
Participated in a film for the first time
The first time on the big screen, Wang Dani played the legendary actress Mei Yanfang, who was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, under the image of Mei Yanfang, when the trailer of "Mei Yanfang" was launched, it was repeatedly questioned by netizens that it was inconsistent with mei Jie's image and appearance. However, in order to create Mei Jie, Wang Dani, who has no experience as an actor, received a six-month training for the film after being selected for the audition, and in addition to practicing her acting skills, she also speculated on Mei Jie's words and deeds.
In order to gain a deeper understanding of Mei Jie's personality, the film company also arranged for Wang Dani to meet with Mei Jie's former friends and seniors to prepare for the role. Before becoming Mei Jie, who was recognized by the audience on the big screen, Wang Dani first got the approval of Guan Jinpeng, the director who mei jie had cooperated with in the movie "Rouge Buckle" before her death, guan director visited the class during the filming of "Mei Yanfang", and after meeting Wang Dani, she was shocked by her appearance and temperament, saying: "Like Mei Yanfang! ”
As the director of one of Mei Jie's film masterpieces, "Rouge Buckle", Guan Jinpeng's evaluation has a transcendent weight. At the same time, Guan Dao also mentioned that Wang Dani should be similar to Mei Jie in terms of style and hand and foot, and it is more necessary to enter Mei Jie's world, not just by imitation. With the approval and reminder of Guan Director during filming, it is no wonder that Wang Dani's performance in the film can be so mature and close to the role of Mei Yanfang.
