Now whenever there are some TV dramas with sparse plots, exaggerated costumes, special effects, and actors whose acting skills are not online, it will always cause the whole people to complain, and when there is no drama to chase, they have to relive some classic TV series over and over again. You will find that those classic dramas you remember are "Bai Jingqi", "Yu Zecheng", "Zhu Kaishan", "Li Yunlong", "Song Dacheng" and so on, these character names, not actor names.
Nowadays, every year, various talent shows continue to send fresh blood to the entertainment industry, and there are more and more stars, but few who really conquer the audience with their works. This is also the reason why everyone has special respect and admiration for Chen Baoguo, Li Baotian, Bao Guoan, Li Xuejian and other old drama bones.
Speaking of the old drama bone Li Xuejian, everyone must be very familiar with it, and many of his works have left a deep impression, such as the generous and industrious Song Dacheng in Longing, Song Jiang in Water Margin, Feng Jingyao who is not angry and arrogant in New on the Beach, Zhang Zuolin who is full of in Young Marshal, and so on. Each character is vivid and three-dimensional, without the shadow of the actor himself.
Born in 1954, Li Xuejian is 66 years old this year and he is a national first-class actor. In the show business circle for nearly 40 years, he has starred in only one hundred and eighty works, and has never won by number. Outside the play, he has a good life style, and his wife has been in love for decades, no gossip, no hype, and low-key like a celebrity.
In 2014, Li Xuejian, who was rarely featured in the interview program, recorded an issue of "Let's Talk" hosted by CCTV Sabine, and in the guest question session, the competition of Teacher Li, who has always been respected, was "intimidated". Here's the thing:
When talking about the topic of "actor fame", an actor named "Wang Jiaru" may have had a mental breakdown because he had been dormant in the show business circle for a long time without breaking out. When he asked Li Xuejian questions, his words were quite sharp, and after laying the groundwork for a series of his resumes, he said: "The first role I played after I arrived in Beijing was the dead body at wu Jing's feet, and the second year I played the first male number one." Guess how much money I took at the time? ”
Then he asked himself and said 4,000 yuan. He said, "An actor like you, who is highly respected and famous, has only been filming in our play for four days and has taken hundreds of thousands of dollars." “
Through this matter, Wang Jiaru felt that actors still have to be famous, after all, low-level actors are not easy to do, and they have not worked hard enough to make a few cameos at random, and he wants to know what Li Xuejian thinks about this.
At that time, Teacher Li Xuejian's answer can be said to be textbook-level, Li Xuejian said that if there is no work that is famous, it is also blind, it is true that the profession of actor needs to be recognized by more audiences, but the highest realm is to make people forget the actor's name and remember the role he played.
Li Xuejian mentioned that when he starred in "Longing", he only added 8,000 yuan. (Weak to say, 90 years 8000 is not a lot.) ）
Wang Jiaru did not agree, he felt that Teacher Li took 8,000 yuan without worrying about eating and drinking, and he took four thousand yuan in addition to eating and drinking to continue to run the group, because it is still difficult to take on the role without fame, and 4,000 yuan does not know how long it will take to receive the next drama.
Li Xuejian was a little excited to hear him say that he did not worry about eating and drinking: "You only see my present, what about my past?" What about when I wasn't famous? Then Teacher Li listed many of his life and death experiences as a soldier in the army. The reason why I was reluctant to mention these things to the media before was because I didn't like to be hyped.
In the end, of course, it was Sabine who ended the conversation with two rhetorical questions: "Are you having fun?" Is it your dream to be an actor? “
Wang Jiaru replied affirmatively, and Sabine said: Isn't that the end of the matter?
After the broadcast of this program, many people did not recognize Wang Jiaru's way of talking, not to mention how the content of the talk was lowly emotional, and the strength of speaking was also criticized for disrespecting Teacher Li Xuejian.
In fact, this is also the reason he said, but he should not be compared with these old artists. Li Xuejian has worked hard in the acting circle for nearly 40 years and won 33 emperors, and he speaks with strength. If he is unbalanced in his heart, he can go to those who have no acting skills and have been paid hundreds of millions of dollars...
If he is a traffic star this time, it is estimated that there are many people who support him, and it is not necessary to become famous.
Wang Jiaru said on the show that he had played male number one, and at that time he did not even have encyclopedic information.
Now that it's been more than five years since that episode, how is this guy doing?
I specifically searched for his resources, and now there is an encyclopedia. The data shows:
Wang Jiaru was born in 1986, has never studied acting, his hometown is short of water, coal production, almost every family has people working in the mines. After graduating from high school, he studied at the Gansu Coal Industry Technical School, graduated in 2008, and naturally became a miner.
After working in the mine for two years, he began to drift sideways and drift north, because he had not studied acting, and his appearance was not outstanding in the show business circle, and he ran a dragon set for a long time. In 2012, by chance, he starred in a small-budget rural theme movie "Honeysuckle Blossom", which is the male number one he mentioned in "Let's Talk".
I don't know if you have heard of "Honeysuckle Blossom", the box office cannot be verified, and the Douban has not been scored, which basically belongs to the three nothings.
This low-audience film naturally did not make him a hit, and did not change the situation in which he had to continue to run the dragon set and run the group to find a scene. This is also the reason why he felt that fame was very important in "Lottery".
It is said that like him, he is not from a science class and does not have any innate advantages, and there are not many people who sharpen their heads and squeeze into the entertainment circle, look at the north shadow door, how many group performances in Hengdian are piled up. But in fact, he was lucky, from coal miner to male number one, it was only a few years.
In recent years, he seems to have developed well and participated in many TV series
For example, the anti-Japanese drama "Blood Red Face":
As for how the acting skills have not been seen and not evaluated, but the self-confidence is quite strong, the introduction of the show starring list has him, he calls himself "my new film".
Last year, Wang Jing directed and Chen Haomin played the Douban score of 3.5 points in "New Hedong Lion Roar", in which the dragon manager was played:
In the web drama "Great Song Beidou Division", he played Zhen Lingzi:
In the spy drama "Dark Blade" starring Zhang Duo and Sui Junbo in 2016, he played Xiao Boyan, and he also had many rival plays with the heroine.
It seems that the career development is still quite smooth, although the fame is still not large, but there are works every year, which is considered to be on the road. The film remuneration should be far more than 4,000, how to get 5,000!
