In 2014, with the birth of an "Ancient Sword And Strange Tan" and the overnight popularity of the male protagonist Li Yifeng, at this point, not only directly opened the "ancient puppet drama boom", but also allowed internal entertainment to truly enter the "traffic era".
After eight years of scenery, Li Yifeng may not have thought that he would one day plant it so thoroughly, and fans and netizens did not expect that Li Yifeng, who used to be known as the "first top stream", would ruin his great future in this way that was almost "self-detonating".
Many people blindly guess that Li Yifeng is not simple.
The answer to this question is clearly yes, or to put it more generally—
"Which of the top streams in the entertainment industry has been simple?"
However, unlike others, behind Li Yifeng's rise and fall, he mainly experienced three important periods, and he was inseparable from the support of three men.
One of the three periods: momentum
Li Yifeng was born in Chengdu, Sichuan in 1987, and since he was a child, he has been deeply loved and concerned by people around him because of his beautiful face.
At that time, Li Yifeng was still called "Li He", when he was in kindergarten, he was more active and lively than other students, and every holiday event, he was busy performing on stage.
Once, Li Yifeng participated in the catwalk activities organized by the school, in order to make himself more outstanding, he also took the initiative to let his mother light a red mole on his forehead, which he felt would be more eye-catching.
It was also from then on that that Li Yifeng firmed up his dream of stardom, including his mother, and always supported his son's dream, and even when he was a little older, he changed his original name to Li He to the current Li Yifeng through the help of a fortune teller.
In this way, From kindergarten to primary school, and then from junior high school to high school, Li Yifeng, who has been the "school grass" of the school for many years, is getting closer and closer to his star dream.
It is rumored that Li Yifeng was "taken care of" by the school during his high school years, because where Li Yifeng appeared publicly, it would inevitably cause disturbances among female classmates.
In this way, Li Yifeng not only obtained the privilege of not having to do recess exercises, but even the people sitting around him were all boys, it can be said that in such a growth environment, Li Yifeng has enjoyed the convenience brought by fame since he was a child.
In 2007, Li Yifeng, a sophomore in the Broadcast Hosting Department of the Film and Television College of Sichuan Normal University, signed up for the "Come On Good Boys" talent show, he went all the way through the cuts, and finally won the eighth place in the finals and the most affinity award, thus entering the entertainment circle.
The second of the three periods: dormancy
When participating in the program, although Li Yifeng's strength is far less than that of Jing Bairan, Qiao Renliang, Fu Xinbo and others, his super popularity has brought him a lot of help.
During that time, Li Yifeng not only briefly became the "King of Popularity", but also was selected by fans as the "Four Young People of the City" together with three other people.
At that time, Cao Kefan, as the host of the program, also publicly stated that he liked Li Yifeng the most in this group of contestants, and he was also optimistic that Li Yifeng would definitely become a superstar.
Now, Cao Kefan became a proverb, but Before becoming a superstar, Li Yifeng also had to go through a period of 6 years of dormancy.
From 2007 to 2013, After leaving the show, Li Yifeng's popularity began to decline, he has sung, held concerts, filmed film and television dramas and become the male lead, but the heat has not been too high, and it is still far from his dream of being a big star.
Until 2014, after signing a contract with Huanrui, Li Yifeng really became popular in an all-round way with a "Ancient Sword Qitan", and in that period of K-pop stars, Li Yifeng snatched up the market by himself.
Since then, Li Yifeng has become the "first generation of top class", because of this experience, he is also known as the "anti-Korean pioneer", whether it is popularity or popularity, it is far beyond the same age of male stars.
The third of the three periods: the outbreak
Since 2014, Li Yifeng ushered in an outbreak period, and even this cycle has continued until before his accident, and this, I have to highlight Li Yifeng's clear planning and choice of career.
During the explosion of "Ancient Sword Qitan", Li Yifeng was surrounded by a large number of rotten female fans who followed him and Chen Weiting's "Yue Su CP" in addition to his girlfriend fans.
After tasting the traffic dividend, Li Yifeng quickly took over a number of dramas, in addition to "Living Color", "Qingyunzhi", "Sparrow" these works cooperated with well-known actresses, naturally there is no shortage of "Rotten Girl" explosive dramas such as "Notes from the Tomb Robber".
Moreover, the help brought by "Notes from the Tomb Robber" to Li Yifeng is no less than that of "Ancient Sword Qitan", that year, the "bottle evil CP" composed of Li Yifeng and Yang Yang was popular in internal entertainment, which not only allowed the two to soar hand in hand to the ranks of the "four top streams", but also allowed the broadcast platform to smoothly open the membership payment model.
At the same time, Li Yifeng began to turn to the film circle, although the fact that blindly taking over the scene at the beginning exposed the fact of zero acting skills, it was inevitable that there were bad films such as "Gardenia Blossom" and "Fluttering Star", but the subsequent "Old Cannon", "Psychological Crime" and "Animal World" also improved his reputation to some extent.
More importantly, Li Yifeng polished his image very smoothly, and since his debut, he has had a "Li Zheng w" personality because his speech is too "official".
The help brought by this personality to him is visible to the naked eye, so that later he successfully joined the films such as "The Great Cause of Building the Army", "My Hometown and Me", "Revolutionaries" and so on, and the Supreme People's Procuratorate and other officials also cooperated with him, prompting his color to become more and more "red".
However, after experiencing this storm, everyone has also understood that Li Yifeng's "red" is only a fake mask after all, such a male star who has different appearances before and after such a person, and it is only a matter of time before the car is overturned.
One of the three men: Hu Haiquan
For Li Yifeng, Hu Haiquan is not only the leader but also the person who most directly helps him realize his dreams in the entertainment industry.
During the "Come On Good Boy" period, Yuquan was invited to serve as a program judge, and during the audition, Li Yifeng sang a song original by Hu Haiquan, "Leaves", which successfully won his attention.
During the competition, Hu Haiquan's care for Li Yifeng can be described as well-known, he not only publicly described the two as "mentors and friends", but also praised Li Yifeng in public more times.
When 8 entered 6, Li Yifeng, who has always been optimistic, was out of the cold, and the media who did not understand it used the term "private collection" to describe Li Yifeng's relationship with Hu Haiquan.
Moreover, Hu Haiquan's care for Li Yifeng continued all the way to the end of the game.
After the finals ended, Li Yifeng, who refused to sign a contract with Shangteng Entertainment, became the only "self-employed" in the top ten in the country.
Just when the outside world was still questioning Li Yifeng's choice, he did not know that the next second he signed with Hu Haiquan's company.
And Hu Haiquan also worked him as much as he did in the game.
Soon, Li Yifeng released his debut EP album "Four Leaf Clover", a new song adapted from Hu Haiquan's "Leaves".
In addition, Hu Haiquan also helped Li Yifeng release his first semi-autobiographical photo album "Time is always in circles - Li Yifeng's private film".
Including in terms of personal image, Hu Haiquan helped him design the title of "National School Grass", which became the only one in the entertainment industry that year.
Of course, the most important thing to say is that Hu Haiquan sent him to the door of Huanrui Company in 2014.
Now it seems that Hu Haiquan's move at that time was like missing Li Yifeng, but Hu Haiquan, who is good at music production, did not have much involvement in the film and television field, and it was reasonable to send Li Yifeng to Huanrui.
Thanks to Hu Haiquan's move, Li Yifeng successfully started the fire with the "Ancient Sword Qitan", so Hu Haiquan's importance to Li Yifeng is absolutely the only one.
Two of the three men: He Jiong
Many people say that more than half of the big stars in the internal entertainment are inextricably linked to He Jiong.
As a brother of Mango Tai, He Jiong, who is good at forging good relations, is indeed so.
After the broadcast of "Ancient Sword And Strange Tan" in 2014, Mango Station, which was in the throes of ratings, made a comeback again and re-sat firmly at the head of local satellite television.
On this basis, Li Yifeng and He Jiong had an indissoluble relationship, because after participating in the "Happy Base Camp", he also let him hook up with the "fan sister" Wu Xin.
Obviously, even if it was directed at Wu Xin, He Jiong would treat Li Yifeng as "his own family".
Among them, when He Jiong made the movie "Gardenia Blossom", he also used all the small fresh meats with whom he had the best personal relationship.
Among them, Li Yifeng, as the male protagonist, has the largest coffee position, and the ones who match him include Jiang Jinfu, Zhang Yuxi, Wei Daxun, Li Xinai, Song Yi, Zhang Yunlong and others.
Although the performance of Li Yifeng and others, as well as the overall quality problems, have contributed to the sluggish reputation of the film, the box office performance of nearly 400 million yuan has still made He Jiong earn a lot of money, and for Li Yifeng, he naturally loves it more obviously.
Later, Li Yifeng became a regular guest of "Happy Base Camp", and many subsequent works were broadcast in cooperation with Mango Station, and across the Chinese New Year's Eve, the interaction between him and He Jiong could also be seen in the latter's importance to him.
The third of three men: Li Hanwen
The name Li Hanwen may not be familiar to everyone, but his real identity is actually Li Yifeng's father.
Li Yifeng's family is very advantageous, his father is a well-known local business tycoon in Sichuan, Li Yifeng can contact literature and art from an early age, but also rely on the family's strong financial support.
After Li Yifeng became the top class, his father Li Hanwen specially established the Beijing Yide Cultural Communication Company, which is now also the actual holding company behind Li Yifeng's studio "One Letter".
As the most solid backing behind Li Yifeng, his father Li Hanwen did many things unknown to the outside world for Li Yifeng.
In terms of personal development, after Li Yifeng broke away from Huanrui Century in 2019, Li Hanwen took the company's direct participation in the production of the TV series "Hidden and Great", which allowed Li Yifeng to further continue the resources.
In addition, Li Hanwen's strong public relations ability for his son Li Yifeng is obvious to all.
In 2016, Li Yifeng won the Best Supporting Actor Award at the 33rd Hundred Flowers Awards for Popular Films with "Old Cannon", and as a result, after fermenting for a period of time, the wind of public opinion all affected Yang Ying, who won the best supporting actress.
In the same year, Li Yifeng was pulled out of the TV series "Sparrow" to use a large number of stand-ins, and after the same fermentation for a period of time, the result was the same as the top Yang Yang, because of a reverse model storm was scolded out of the circle.
In 2017, when Li Yifeng was questioned for winning the Huading Award with "Qingyunzhi", the result was scolded the most tragically, it was Tang Yan, who won the best heroine.
In 2018, Li Yifeng and Di Li Reba won the double prize of the Golden Eagle Festival together, and the result was that Di Li Reba was scolded the most, and now they are called "Water Queen".
In addition, after Li Yifeng's relationship with Net Red Bay was exposed in early 2019, the direction of follow-up public opinion was also very strange, and even evolved to Yang Mi was suddenly innocently involved, which allowed his studio to issue a one-time statement and let the matter end.
If once or twice can only be regarded as a coincidence, then Li Yifeng, who can retreat from every incident, obviously behind this, squandered enough resources to operate public opinion, and all this obviously points to the backer behind Li Yifeng, his father Li Hanwen.
And speaking of this, also in 2016, Li Yifeng broke out a traffic hit-and-run incident due to a car accident, when the matter was once named by CCTV, but then quietly ended with the dissipation of public opinion, and now it seems that there may also be Li Hanwen's figure.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that the outside world has always been rumored that Li Yifeng's father and Wanda boss Wang Jianlin are family friends, and this is one of the reasons why Li Yifeng and Wang Sicong are good friends.
Including when Wang Sicong evaluated Li Yifeng on a self-made beauty pageant in his early years, the words also proved that the two had known each other for a long time.
Obviously, from Li Yifeng's fame to the three men who helped him realize his dreams, this series of experiences has allowed Li Yifeng to enjoy the resources and attention that his peers are far from reaching.
Perhaps, once or twice to turn the danger into a disaster, let Li Yifeng's self-confidence extremely inflated, but as the saying goes, often walk by the river where there are not wet shoes, when Li Yifeng first chose to embark on the wrong road, his steps, has been more and more pulled, the farther ripped.
It's easy to talk about going back.
