He is the Liu Luo pot in "Liu Luo Pot of prime minister", who cares about the people and fights with the wisdom and courage of Hezhen.
He is also the divine doctor Xi Laile in "Divine Doctor Xi Laile", who cares about the people and fights wits and courage with corrupt officials and bullies.
He is the famous actor Li Baotian.
Li Baotian is a rare good actor in the acting world, with acting skills and character.
Whether it is that role, he has played it for three points and is impressed.
Compared to other actors in the entertainment industry, he is a bit "different".
Actors who have worked with him, he dares to criticize, without mercy.
For example, "He Yan" Wang Gang in "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo".
"Some people can't work together anymore, of course, it may be a matter of perception," he said.
People like Li Baotian are not many in the entertainment industry, but they are very precious.
Over the years, he has rarely appeared in the entertainment industry.
His "disappearance" is undoubtedly a loss for the entertainment industry.
In 1946, Li Baotian was born in Jiawang District, Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province.
He is a national first-class actor and a well-deserved "old drama bone".
Don't look at him starring in a lot of classic and irreplaceable TV series, but the road before becoming famous was very hard.
His childhood was very bumpy and not very happy, but his nature was very stubborn.
Learning is not good since elementary school, and one day, Li Baotian, who does not love learning, ran directly from school.
Why? Because he wanted to study theater.
But the family did not agree, so it was easy to talk about evil, but Li Baotian just did not listen.
As soon as the family saw that they could not stay, they were angry and blew Li Baotian away.
In fact, it is just to scare and frighten the child, and it is not really to drive him away.
What parent doesn't love their children!
But Li Baotian really left, leaving home to learn drama on his own.
When Li Baotian was a child, he could be said to be almost obsessed with drama.
Every weekend night, I will watch dramas, watch Peking Opera, local dramas, and never fall behind.
Every time he stayed up at the door of the theater, until others didn't look at it, he would pick up the ticket stubs that others had lost, and then take them in to see.
For example, for a two-hour play, others see more than an hour without watching, and exit the show halfway, the ticket may be thrown on the ground in front of the theater.
Li Baotian has watched a lot of plays that do not cost money with this method.
It is not an exaggeration to call him a "fool"!
When the Chinese Acrobatic Troupe performed in Xuzhou, it was dispersed for a long time, and Li Baotian refused to leave.
The demeanor of the actors on the stage could not be dissipated in his mind for a long time.
"It's really a minute on stage, ten years offstage." It's just that others can't see it, they can only see the wonderful actors on the stage.
But Li Baotian felt: They are free.
After the performance, you can arrange your own time and do what you like.
But Li Baotian felt that he was not free and had to be locked up in school to listen to lectures.
In Li Baotian's heart, he longed to be as free as they were.
In this way, Li Baotian left home without authorization, found a troupe, and studied for several years.
In fact, another reason why he does not want to stay at home is that his family is too lonely.
My mother was a workaholic who could only be seen once on weekends, and she rarely saw her on weekdays.
The work in the family is all done by a nanny and aunt.
Therefore, Li Baotian did not get much love from his family when he was a child.
Because of this, later the entertainment industry had this rare excellent actor.
Ever since he left home and went to the theater, Li Baotian knew how bitter it was.
He had no money, no salary to study in the theater, and no acquaintances or good friends around him.
Therefore, Li Baotian often does not have enough to eat, and even hungry.
But because Li Baotian likes drama too much, he has never flinched with his love for drama, no matter how cold or heat it is.
He also doesn't want to be left behind.
At one point, he was so hungry that he couldn't sleep or eat.
He simply got up and scooped up a scoop of cold water, poured "grunt" into his stomach, and began to practice the basic skills.
Unexpectedly, it didn't take long for his eyes to go black and he fell down.
When he woke up, he found himself in the hospital, sitting next to his haggard father.
When his father saw him wake up, he didn't say a word, got up and left.
At this time, Li Baotian knew that his father was still worried about him.
But helplessly, both father and son were cattle tempers, and neither of them spoke to anyone.
Watching his father disappear from sight, Li Baotian's nose was sour.
Tears swirled in the eye sockets, and they stubbornly did not let the tears fall.
Nor did he chase him out to send his father.
This later became his regret, because his father died of illness four years later.
After his father died, his brother was in a car accident.
My mother was depressed and didn't dare to be happy anymore.
Because the mother felt happy, there was no good thing.
Li Baotian turned the grief of losing his loved ones into motivation and worked harder.
His efforts were not in vain after all, and he became the deputy head of the Xuzhou Local Cultural Group with rich experience.
To say that Li Baotian's disappearance in the "entertainment circle" is a loss, the first is because he has principles and is just and righteous.
Once, a leader brought a girl to the group and said that he wanted Li Baotian to arrange a position and play a role.
But when Li Baotian learned that the girl had no experience in acting at all, he was stunned to refuse.
He felt that since he was in this position, he had to think about the whole group and could not let one person pull down the overall level.
And after so many years of hard practice, he knows that it is absolutely impossible to get a new person on the stage.
Therefore, he would rather refute the face of the leader than agree to such a relationship.
At work, Li Baotian scrupulously fulfilled his duties; In terms of kung fu, he did not slacken off.
Despite being 32 years old, he was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.
Here, he not only came into contact with more professional teaching, but also met many excellent classmates like him.
Li Baotian was very happy, and he was stepping on the path he longed for step by step.
Opportunities are always given to those who are prepared.
In 1987, Li Baotian ushered in a major film production.
Man, Ghost, Love is a 1987 drama film produced by Shanghai Film Studio. Directed by Huang Shuqin, starring Li Baotian, Xu Shouli and Ji Qilin, and specially invited by Hebei Wuzi actor Pei Yanling.
The father character played by Li Baotian in it has a paranoid personality, is competitive and competitive, and is very difficult to grasp.
But Li Baotian can do a good job in this role, and with this role, he won the Golden Rooster Award and the Best Supporting Actor Award.
This drama has made Li Baotian's popularity in the circle soar.
The actors he works with are also getting bigger and bigger.
In 1990, Li Baotian starred with Zhao Lirong, Ge You, and six children in the family drama movie "New Year".
His distinctive performance style impressed the audience.
The film won the Best Feature Film Award at the Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards and the Special Jury Prize at the 4th Tokyo International Film Festival.
Later, he partnered Gong Li to star in "Ju Dou" directed by Zhang Yimou, and his wonderful performance won the award for this film.
His career is getting better and better, but Li Baotian has always had his own principles in his work.
After becoming famous, Li Baotian still insisted on some of his ideas in filming.
In 1995, Li Baotian and Wang Gang starred in the historical costume drama "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo".
In the play, he plays Liu Luoguo, who is just and upright, not afraid of power, witty and humorous, and is deeply loved by the audience.
Li Baotian won the 14th China Television Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor for the drama.
Because the show was very popular after it aired, he inevitably gave interviews to some shows.
When asked if the TV series with Teacher Wang Gang has achieved such good results, will it cooperate.
Unexpectedly, Li Baotian said: "Some people will no longer cooperate, this is not to say who is wrong, everyone has their own ideas." ”
Li Baotian feels that the newcomer actors are more stereotypical and easier to change.
But big names are harder to change.
So he prefers to cooperate with some newcomers and people who have room to grow.
From this point of view, he maintains a ready-to-improve, flexible attitude in acting, more than those who are stuck in the rules
The actors are much better.
Because actors are constantly breaking through themselves and allowing the audience to always see a new side. Li Baotian is like this.
In addition to sticking to his own ideas on filming, his professionalism is admirable.
When filming Liu Luoguo, according to the role, he had to dress up as a hunchback image.
At that time, the crew made a sweat towel and kneaded it into a ball and put it on his back, wearing it all the time.
It was summer, and there were so many things to cover, you can imagine how hot it was.
Every time he took a break, he just took it down for a while and could hear the director say "start."
Then the actors hurried to get dressed, and as soon as they moved, the sweat began to flow down.
After filming the play, the skin on his back was soaked with sweat and he had a small rash.
Of course, the dedication of the actors does not have to sing praises, this is what they should do.
But this kind of professionalism seems to few people today.
Therefore, from these two aspects, his "disappearance" should be a loss to the entertainment industry.
In addition to these qualities, Li Baotian is also an actor who is responsible for the audience.
During a filming, Li Baotian encountered a dispute and also went to court.
In 2004, Li Baotian participated in the costume TV series "Young Chincha", which was only 30 episodes long, with a remuneration of 100,000 yuan per episode.
However, the producers of the good things changed the original 30-episode TV series to 33 episodes.
In other words, it is plain and easy to come up with 3 more episodes.
This means that the show is "injected".
Li Baotian was very angry after he found out, he said: "Ordinary people don't even eat pork injected with water, so why watch water injection dramas." ”
He went to the production staff and asked to change the series back to the 30 episodes that had been agreed upon.
They didn't even listen to it a few times.
Li Baotian was completely angry, so he sued the producer "Times Spring" in court.
There was originally a contract in black and white, and the producer was justified.
Therefore, in the first and second trials, Li Baotian won.
In the end, the producers not only compensated for the extra three episodes, but also paid Li Baotian's default fees, a total of 1.9 million.
Although Li Baotian has received a lot of compensation, this matter is indeed the fault of the producer.
If you don't do this, or follow Li Baotian's advice, you won't get into court, and you won't have to pay so much extra compensation.
However, after this incident, Li Baotian was "retaliated" by the producer.
They joined forces with thirteen companies to boycott Li Baotian and make them stop cooperating with Li Baotian.
In addition, they also invited the public relations company to say a lot of bad things about Li Baotian and pour dirty water on him.
Because public opinion was too chaotic, some unreasonable people began to think that Li Baotian was not authentic, and even tore his face with his own cooperative company.
For these unfavorable remarks, Li Baotian had bitter words and did not defend himself.
But since then, his acting career has been greatly affected.
His popularity and workload have decreased a lot, and no one has been looking for him to shoot for a long time.
However, he does not regret it. He just can't get used to these chaos.
He has gone through so much hard work to become a good actor, that is, to be responsible for the audience and to respect himself.
His more authentic attitude and psychology of thinking about the audience are also rare now.
Even, in order to shoot a scene, he did not even attend his son's wedding.
At that time, he was filming in the crew of "Never Look Back".
His son's wedding, he didn't go.
The director knew and said to him, "Let's go to the wedding first, and it's the same when we come back and shoot again." ”
Unexpectedly, Li Baotian said: "I can't delay everyone because I have delayed everyone and delayed the progress of the play." ”
So, he didn't leave the crew in the end.
Li Baotian with his son
Maybe some people will have opinions about him, and even their own sons will have opinions about their father.
However, whether an actor is qualified or not has time to decide.
His integrity, principledness and professionalism earned him the "Lifetime Artist Award".
In 2020, the 74-year-old Li Baotian attended the award ceremony.
Those present saw Li Baotian applauding him and stood up to show respect.
This honor justifies his name!
Today's Li Baotian, who is more than seventy years old, is an old man.
It also does not often appear in the entertainment industry.
But because of that incident, he was boycotted or even banned, so that he could not act well, which is indeed a pity.
If it weren't for that, maybe he could have contributed more excellent works to the audience.
Therefore, Li Baotian's "disappearance" is a loss for the entertainment industry.
Nowadays, Li Baotian is old, even if the opportunity to shoot a scene will not be as large as when he was young.
I only hope that he will be free of illness and disaster in his later life and have a smooth life.
May the years be gentle for those who have suffered!
