It only took them a moment to bring in the Qinhuai River, and even the smell of fat powder was brought in.
"Jinling Thirteen Chao"
[Why did Ni Ni become the lower limit of the girl?] Is it not hard enough, or is it not talented enough? 】
A girl is a more popular saying in the entertainment industry, and Mou Girl is a unified name for actresses who have starred in films directed by Zhang Yimou, mainly heroines.
In 1987, Zhang Yimou made his first time as a director to shoot "Red Sorghum", personally went to the Chinese opera to pick actors, and finally became famous internationally, and also won Gong Li, and since then there has been a first generation of Mou girls.
Later, Zhang Ziyi, Dong Jie, Zhou Dongyu, Ni Ni, and even Qu Ying, Yan Ni, Jiang Ruijia, Zhang Chuju, Han Xiting, Li Yuemin, Bai Xue, Yuan Yang Chunzi, Sun Jia, Gu Xuan, Jiang Wen, Zhang Huiwen, Li Man, Zhang Xinyi and other supporting actresses in Zhang Yimou's films, lin Miaoke and Tang Yan, who participated in the Olympic performances, were also named Mou Girls.
[In the upcoming Hong Kong police film "Bomb Disposal Expert 2", Andy Lau and Ni Ni cooperated, plus Zhang Ziyi and Gong Li, who had cooperated before, Andy Lau has cooperated with 3 girls. 】
For these girls, Zhang Yimou's evaluation is:
Gong Li: God appreciates rice to eat, it is this piece of material, very real, very natural.
Zhou Dongyu: Don't look at her small, very talented, crying drama first-class, born for the big screen.
In the latest movie "One Second", Zhang Yimou discovered a new generation of Mou girl Liu Haocun, and Zhang Yimou also had a high evaluation of her: I can't help it, I was born to eat this bowl of rice.
So some people predicted Liu Haocun's future development: the upper limit is Gong Li, and the lower limit is Ni Ni.
That is to say, in the future, Liu Haocun's highest achievement is to become the second Gong Li, and the worst can also reach the level of Ni Ni.
So here's the problem.
Why did Ni Ni become the lower limit of the girl? Is Ni Ni not working hard enough, or is she not talented enough?
As a first-generation girl, Gong Li has long been famous internationally, is the Venice International Film Festival, has been the chairman of the jury of the Venice, Berlin and Tokyo International Film Festivals, can enjoy the red carpet clearance treatment of the Cannes International Film Festival, and is the first Chinese actress today.
Zhang Ziyi's international influence is not as good as Gong Li's, but she has been the president of the jury of the Tokyo International Film Festival after the Golden Rooster Awards, and no actress of the same age can reach her height.
Zhou Dongyu, who is already a double film queen of the Golden Horse Awards and the Golden Film Awards, is about to close, and she is also very likely to win, thus becoming the youngest Chinese film queen with three grand slam awards.
There is no need to compare with the predecessor Gong Li Zhang Ziyi, compared with the closest zhou dongyu, you can see the gap.
Ni Ni, born on August 8, 1988, is 4 years older than Zhou Dongyu, but they were selected by Zhang Yimou at almost the same time to become Mou girls. Zhou Dongyu was a sophomore in high school when she was selected to shoot "The Love of hawthorn trees", and Ni Ni was a sophomore majoring in broadcasting and hosting at Nanguang College of Communication University of China when she was selected to shoot "Jinling Thirteen Chao".
At that time, Zhang Yimou was already the de facto number one director in China, especially after the Beijing Olympic Games, and his influence was unprecedented.
It was also from then on that the casting scale of Zhang Yimou's films was a national sea selection of 10,000 people, and Zhou Dongyu and Ni Ni both stood out from such a selection.
The difference is that when filming "The Love of hawthorn trees", Zhou Dongyu was selected to shoot directly on camera, almost the true color of the performance; while Ni Ni was to go through two years of secret special training, including shape, talent, performance and other all-round training, the only one who can play the true color is Ni Ni's Nanjing dialect.
With "Jinling Thirteen Chao", Ni Ni won 6 film awards and 3 nominations, including the Best Actress Award at the 21st Shanghai Film Critics Association Awards, the Best New Actor Award at the 6th Asian Film Awards, and so on.
Among the post-85 actresses, compared with Liu Yifei, Ma Sichun, Tang Yixin, Zhao Liying, Liu Shishi, Tang Yan, Jing Tian, Yang Mi, Jiang Shuying, etc., Ni Ni did not lose anything, and even had individual advantages. Therefore, it cannot be said that Ni Ni does not work hard.
The latest Girl Liu Haocun can reach ni Ni's level in the future, which is already a big success, but what about the Girl with the highest starting point?
Working with Hollywood superstar Christian Bell at the beginning, Ni Ni's starting point is higher than Zhou Dongyu's, but Zhou Dongyu's talent far exceeds Ni Ni's, just like Zhang Yimou's evaluation of her.
Later, at the suggestion of Zhang Yimou, Zhou Dongyu was admitted to his alma mater, the Beijing Film Academy. Ni Ni is a broadcast host at the Communication University, and if there is no Zhang Yimou, she should become a good host.
Compared with several other girls, Ni Ni not only lost her talent, but also lacked the study of professional film and television performance. At that time, in the 2 years of special training in "Jinling Thirteen Chao", it was impossible to reproduce it in any other crew. Then again, Ni Ni is unlikely to be willing to spend 2 years on a role.
Therefore, due to the lack of talent itself, coupled with the lack of professional training the day after tomorrow, the gap between Ni Ni and other girls will become wider and wider.
After that, Ni Ni also had "28-year-old minor", "The Legend of Wukong" and "Tiansheng Long Song" and "Chen Xi Yuan" that were nominated for some film and television drama awards, but there was no breakthrough in the works of "Jinling Thirteen Chao".
On the other hand, the younger Zhou Dongyu, because of 4 years of studying acting at the Beijing Film Academy, is still more and more courageous after leaving Zhang Yimou, and is already the leader of Xiaohua after the 90s, standing firmly in the C position.
Wearing the aura of a girl, Ni Ni's development after that is still very smooth, not only good film and television resources, fashion resources are also quite high-quality, all big-name fashion magazines are rushing to shoot her as a cover.
One of the keywords that Ni Ni has spoken of the most now is the sense of luxury, so all film and television dramas and magazine blockbusters are similar to each other: high-grade.
In fact, this also shows a problem, Ni Ni is only suitable for a certain type of role; in fact, many actors have such a problem, no actor can fit all types of roles, and Ni Ni adapts to relatively few roles.
At that time, Zhang Yimou's wise eyes looked at Ni Ni, which was her suitable for the role of Yumo in "Jinling Thirteen Chao"; after leaving Zhang Yimou, Ni Ni did not meet such a role that could play her own advantages, nor did she meet a director like Zhang Yimou who could perfectly amplify its shining point.
The next time, Ni Ni meets a more suitable role, a director who is better at adjusting actors, and it is not impossible for her career to reach a new peak, at least this sense of high-level in Ni Ni is difficult to copy.
