Li Xinliang asked her: "Don't you go searching for yourself on the Internet?" ”
She said, "What's the search?" See how much you're getting fans? ”
Li Xinliang explained: "Like searching for what activities you participate in, what is the hosting work? ”
She replied, "You don't know your job!" ”
Li Xinliang, who was "afraid" of her, was dumbfounded, helpless, and sighed how she was so shafted! It caused a lot of laughter.
This "she" is Zeng Li, who has been debuting for 21 years, and has filmed many dramas, but there is only one female lead drama, and even her old classmate Liu Ye is uneven for her: "She is too desireless and demanding." ”
The implication is that with beauty and ability, as long as she is willing, the entire entertainment circle will be at her disposal.
But she didn't, and people who liked her said: "You don't need to shave to enter the Zengli FanDom", ridiculing her as the only mortal in the 96-level immortal class of The Chinese Opera.
When the students raced against the clock for the drama, Zeng Li "did not hear anything out of the window with both ears, and only read the books of the sages", missing the opportunity and provoking the B side of life, but she had no regrets.

In 1998, the writer Bao Shi received a phone call that excited him, which was from Zhang Yimou.
Zhang Yimou wanted to make his novel "Memorial" into a movie, and Zhang Yimou at that time had already won the Golden Bear Award with "Red Sorghum" and was famous all over the world.
Zhang Yimou is particularly fond of bringing literary works to the big screen, he adapted Chen Yuanbin's novel "Ten Thousand Family Lawsuits" into "Qiu Ju Fights a Lawsuit", Liu Heng's novel "Fuxi Fuxi" into "Ju Dou", and Su Tong's novel "Wives and Concubines in Groups" into "Big Red Lantern Hanging High"...
In these adapted films, the protagonists' struggles, indomitability, helplessness, and the ups and downs under the calm are like a narrative poem in Zhang Yimou's lens, heavy and straightforward.
It was as if, in the barren and inconspicuous time, the depression and buried hope in their hearts were all glimpsed by Zhang Yimou, who was watching their lives, in fact, he wanted to save them in his own way and comfort their unyielding ideals.
The work can be seen by more people, and the protagonists in the pen can become living people, which is the dream of the writers.
Able to cooperate with Zhang Yimou, who understands the work, Bao Shi couldn't sleep all night, began to polish the script carefully, changed the draft 6 times, and then adapted "Memorial" into the script "My Father and Mother".
The script is there, everything is ready, just waiting for a "boot", Zhao Di and Luo Changyu walk towards the audience.
However, the actor of this well-known and skillful "village flower" trick made Zhang Yimou into a dilemma, and he didn't know who it should be for a while.
At this time, Zeng Li was recognized as a great beauty in Chinese opera, the school flower, Bao Jianfeng said that although he went to school in Shanghai, Zeng Li was in Beijing, but she was particularly famous among the students, and her reputation was outside.
It is said that when Zhang Yimou walked to the Chinese opera, he also heard all kinds of praise about Zeng Limei, in order to find this person as soon as possible.
Zhang Yimou contacted Zeng Li's teacher, unfortunately, Zeng Li was not in school at this time, and Zhang Yimou wandered back and forth in the corridor of the classroom without results.
The face is white and immature, the water is bright eyes, the delicate and slender posture is practicing the basic skills over and over again, Zhang Yimou is like a treasure, the long-term depression in his heart instantly dissolves, and the mood is high and refreshing, much brighter.
The heroine arrives, the lights are lit, the personnel gather, and a story about love and waiting quietly opens.
This heroine is no one else, it is Zeng Li's classmate Zhang Ziyi.
This girl who entered the university and released the bold words "I just want to shoot Zhang Yimou's play" finally got her wish.
The hand of fate, the clouds and rain, a small butterfly instigated a different life, and later Zhang Ziyi became an "international chapter" known at home and abroad.
While Zhang Ziyi and her mentor proudly walked on the red carpet of the Berlin International Film Festival, the envious discussion on campus blossomed in the corner, while Zeng Li passed by the crowd and quietly walked on the way to the practice room.
This anecdote, with the continuous flow of time, the truth is hidden in the secret of time.
The past is like the wind, but Zeng Li did miss many opportunities, or it is more appropriate not to miss them, but to give up voluntarily.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="02">
Zeng Li was in class when classmate Mei Ting dropped out of school to seize the opportunity to shoot with Zhang Guorong; Zeng Li was in the practice room when Hu Jing gained popularity in "Daming Palace Words"; when Liu Ye came to prominence with "That Man That Mountain That Dog", Zeng Li was on his way to the classroom.
In the whole four years of college, Zeng Li has not been out of the campus to shoot a drama, and the students have the opportunity to shoot in pairs, but zeng Li has no chance?
On the contrary, Zeng Li was the most opportunistic among all her classmates, and many scripts came to her, holding a bunch of scripts, turning them over, and did not know which one to choose.
With a bunch of scripts, she went to consult the teacher, and the teacher's words changed Zeng Li's filming life and enlightened Zeng Li's grasp of the initiative in life.
The teacher said: "Instead of shooting some bad dramas outside, it is better to lay a good foundation in school."
Zeng Li's indifference to acting now has a teacher's credit.
When the students began to have different achievements, Zeng Li, who was in the starlight, was anzhi Ruosu.
Someone asked her if she regretted it?
She said: "The same people do not have the same life, God will treat everyone kindly, I should cherish what I have got, I am actually more fortunate than many actors." 」 ”
Someone asked her again, what was her dream?
Zeng Li smiled brightly: "Silly to eat, stupid to drink, stupid to sleep." ”
Debut for many years, Zeng Li, who has never been red, is not red, but does not want to be red, at the age of 20, he saw the shackles of fame and profit, and it is already a happy thing to become an actor, instead of putting himself into the grid of bound hands and feet, why not run freely in the blue sky and flowers.
The indifferent Zeng Li has been like this since he was a child.
Zeng Li's family is not well-off, sometimes sleeping with rats crawling over, such a family situation seems to be separated from art by mountains and seas.
As Zeng Li said, she is lucky, since she was a child, Zeng Li is like a water hibiscus, the plate is beautiful and smooth, and anyone who looks at it is a beautiful embryo.
As soon as she graduated from primary school, she was selected by the Peking Opera Troupe to learn Peking Opera, and during her studies, she was always indisputable, letting her play whatever role she played.
Later, in order to further learn more things, I was admitted to the Chinese opera.
In the four years of Chinese opera, compared to becoming famous and seizing opportunities, learning is what she values most, and opportunities give way to learning.
Speaking of her star-filled classmates, Zeng Li remembered them warm and lovely, and through her eyes seemed to see happiness and satisfaction.
Mei Ting will teach her to perform, Zhang Ziyi knows that she likes Faye Wong, once bought a birthday gift for her and met Faye Wong in the mall, trotted all the way to Faye Wong and asked for a signed photo, although Zeng Li's career is not as good as them, but Zhang Ziyi and Mei Ting seem to treat her as a group favorite, and have been pampered.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="03">
Although Zeng Li is not as famous as her classmates, she shoots a lot of scenes, sometimes shooting 30 plays a year, although the appearance may only add up to 5 minutes.
But there are always characters that fall into people's hearts and condense into pearls in memory.
Zhou Xun, Zhao Wei and Chen Kun have acted in a movie called "Painted Skin", Zhou Xun plays a demon, in order to love her, she plans everything, but unfortunately she can't love in the end.
Zeng Li also acted in the TV series of the same name, the "Painted Skin" section in "New Chat Zai Zhiyi", but unlike the male protagonist in the movie, the male protagonist here is a proper negative man.
Mei Sanniang, played by Zeng Li, has an outstanding style, a smile and a variety of styles, and Wang Anxu, who is hooked, is restless, always using the excuse to meet in the courtyard, Zeng Li's glance, smoke waves, feminine and delicate.
When the truth came out and Mei Sanniang punished the evil, the sense of story in Zeng Li's eyes progressed layer by layer, gentleness was no longer there, and hatred went straight up.
Another example is "In the Distance", Homey, played by Zeng Li, can play some small tricks in the early stage for desire, and all her behavior is to serve her own purposes, at this time you can see the shrewdness of the pursuit of interests in Zeng Li's eyes.
When he met Liu Yuntian, he was supposed to use it, but he gradually fell in love with this person in the process of getting along, and when love dominated, the rational Homey seemed to have a layer of fog in his eyes, how could she not be able to get rid of it, and could not blow it away.
Love makes the intellect dizzy, entangled, sad, vulnerable, they are intertwined like hemp, printed on Homey's body.
Zeng Li performed Homey's sense of layering, which was not broken by the silver bottle, but by the low-brow letter procedure.
Even after 21 years of filming, he only did the heroine once in "A Few Sentimental Children of Jiangshan", and the others were either female partners or cameos, but Zeng Li's unhurried career attitude was admirable.
Li Xinliang called her the "three no-ones" in the circle: no scandal, no hype, and no news.
Not red, does not affect her being loved, and even Zeng Lilu, who has never been popular, is better than Zhang Ziyi.
Compared with Zhang Ziyi's straightforward ambition, Zeng Li's indifference seems to be more likable, after all, people in life are alive, people in the shadow of desire appear utilitarian, and it is really rare to be alone.
Zeng Li is like a cup of tea, the entrance is fragrant, the aftertaste is mellow, people want to taste again, the aftertaste is endless.
<h1 class="pgc-h-decimal" data-index="04">
Zeng Li, who is so indifferent, usually filmed and even did not bother to do publicity, but participated in "Sister Riding the Wind and Waves 2", is he also thinking of being popular?
Zeng Li, who has long thrown his name behind his head, and Zeng Li, who wants to be red and has long been popular, can come to this program with great attention, not for the name.
Perhaps from the time she took a picture of "Men's Clothing" a few years ago, she can know that as long as it can impress her work, she will not blindly reject it.
Zeng Li is indifferent to fame and fortune, rather than dislike challenges, she likes to keep learning ahead.
There are many sisters in the show, each of which can make her learn something fresher.
She carefully and carefully does every job, things outside of work, and goes with the flow.
In her body, you can see the appearance of a wise woman who controls her own life and schedules her own rhythm, everyone has the right to choose the path of life, not necessarily at the top of the pyramid to have applause, pleasing herself is more important than anyone or anything.
May you also find your own comfort in life.
