Preface:

Although it may sound a bit incredible, it is true, Koji Yano is arguably one of the most popular Japanese in Chinese.

1. Crossing the ocean to China

Moreover, his parents were also very wise and did not let him give up his studies for practical reasons, believing that only a high degree can change his destiny.

Seeing his son so determined, his parents did not stop him, so he just graduated from high school and went to a bar to work part-time as a waiter.

I have to say that his appearance is indeed very in line with the aesthetics of the time, even now, he is a handsome guy.

So, the heartwarmed Koji Yano resolutely quit his job at the bar and began to look for opportunities in order to enter the entertainment industry.

However, it is not an easy thing to become an actor, after all, there are too many outstanding people, and he has no other outstanding place.

However, things are not as simple as he imagined, and the hard-earned opportunity is not actually acting, but a driver and a nanny.

Finally, after nearly a decade of waiting, he was waiting for a chance to play a Japanese student in a Chinese idol drama.

Therefore, he made up his mind to come to China to develop.

Second, being a stranger in a foreign land: "ghost professional households" gradually opened up their popularity

However, due to his special identity, he did not have a good time at the beginning, not only had to run the crew every day to submit resumes, but also often suffered from cold eyes.

To avoid an unexpected dispute, he chose to hide his nationality, and when asked, he lied that he was from South Korea.

And he finally came to run, because it was the 60th anniversary of the Anti-Japanese War, and such types of anti-war dramas have emerged, and he has been in various crews every day.

So much so that he will be recognized when walking on the street, and instead of disgusting him as expected, everyone greets him warmly and takes photos with him.

Moreover, once he was in a taxi, after being recognized, the driver enthusiastically expressed his appreciation and liking for him, and offered to waive his fare.

The Chinese audience did not bring their feelings for the "fake devil" in the play to him, the "real devil", which undoubtedly made him deeply feel the charm of Chinese.

Perhaps some plot revealed the fact that they were unwilling to admit to death, so they were embarrassed and angry and spread their anger on Koji Yano.

And this completely different attitude made Koji Yano more determined to stay in China.

Third, the road to transformation is bumpy: "real devil" plays "Chinese"

However, his embarrassing situation made him unable to find the right person to talk to, and fortunately, while filming "Big Knife", he finally met his Bo Le.

Finally, in 2008, he received an invitation from the then popular satellite TV's hit variety show and began to enter the hosting industry.

During one recording, when it came time to share his motto, he said in charge of the atmosphere, "Those who follow me prosper, and those who go against me die."

Moreover, after the incident on an island, the relationship between the two countries was once very tense, and he slowly withdrew from variety shows and concentrated on starting his career as an actor.

Underground workers, spies, doctors, and even overbearing presidents, he has played more and more types of roles, and the drama path is getting wider and wider.

He walked step by step, allowing himself to realize his long-held dream in the vast land of China.

Fourth, it is the "son-in-law of China" who promotes the ambassadors of the two countries

With a successful career in China, he not only slowly attracted by China's rich history and rich culture, but also successfully married a Chinese daughter-in-law.

In the "Xinjiang Cotton Incident", he was the first foreign artist to speak out.

During the epidemic, he not only donated supplies to Wuhan, but also posted videos of himself vaccinated when the vaccine was questioned.

On the one hand, he was recognized by Chinese officials as the first Japanese to win the Global Daily's "Best Foreign Artist Award".

On the other hand, he has also received official commendations from Japan, not only receiving the "Minister of Foreign Affairs Commendation Award of Japan" but also being named one of the "100 Most Admired Japanese in the World".

On the one hand, we are "making gold" on our land, but on the other side, we are "in Cao Ying's heart in Han", with some completely unrealistic thoughts.

We still have great respect for foreigners like Koji Yano who are willing to take the initiative to understand history, acknowledge history, and face history squarely.

Epilogue:

We should treat history with respect and objectivity, and we should respect historical facts and truth, and should not tamper with or distort historical facts at will.

Only by constantly drawing lessons from the mirror of history, learning from history, and finding enlightenment and reference from history can we make better choices for the future.

Moreover, history is inherently very complex, we should maintain an open mind and pluralistic views, and treat history with respect, objectivity, lessons and an open attitude, only in this way can we better understand and understand history.
