Preface:
He has been running tricks for seven years, but he has not a single line to foreshadow, earning hundreds of millions of yuan for CCTV, and there are two special quirks when filming that are incomprehensible.
As a benchmark figure in the entertainment industry, angrily sprayed Feng Xiaogang for being, making Zhang Ziyi lose face in public, but the "fig leaf" let the "gymnastics goddess" Zuo Xiaoqing unveil.
The most shocking thing is that in the more than 40 years since his debut, he has participated in more than 60 TV series and won countless proud awards, but he said: I still don't like to be an actor!
First, actors for money
The protagonist of our story today: Chen Daoming, born in 1955, his ancestral home is Shaoxing, Zhejiang, graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, is the chairman of the China Film Association, and has the reputation of a national first-class actor.
It is worth mentioning that when Chen Daoming was not yet an actor, he had three dreams: to be a lawyer, a doctor and a diplomat, but in 1971, he and these three dreams were completely derailed.
At that time, Tianjin People's Art Theater went to Chen Daoming's 12 Middle School to recruit actors, at that time he did not know what acting was, he only knew that he could make money.
With the mentality of giving it a try, he went to the recruitment site to register, and this time lady luck came to him, he was accidentally selected by the examiner, and began his acting career.
Chen Dao will only be 16 years old next year, and he began his own trick experience at the Tianjin People's Theater, and in his seven-year acting career, he did not have a single line on stage.
Although acting as an actor is not his dream, he wants to do everything well in life, and in these seven years, Chen Daoming has always maintained a serious and rigorous work attitude.
God will not fail a hard worker, and in 1978, Chen Daoming was successfully admitted to the Central Academy of Drama and improved his acting skills.
After graduating from university, Chen Daoming was transferred to the CCTV Production Center as an actor, and in 1981 he performed the graduation drama "Innocent Sinner", and then served as the director of the TV Drama Art Committee of the CCTV TV Drama Production Center.
At this time, Chen Daoming's acting career was mediocre, until director Zhou Huan approached him with the script of "The Last Emperor" and asked him to play Puyi in his youth, Chen Daoming's interpretation path improved.
At that time, the crew needed to shoot in the Forbidden City in Beijing, in order not to affect the normal reception of tourists, the crew got up at three o'clock in the morning every day to prepare for the work, and started filming on time at dawn at six o'clock, which was a full four years.
Chen Daoming did not have any complaints, not only consulted a lot of information in private, but also visited many experts to learn from experience, which is the performance of Chen Daoming's dedication.
For every scene in the script, Chen Daoming would do a lot of preparation, so much so that Mr. Ji Xianlin, a master of Chinese studies, later said: "Chen Daoming's literary literacy is no less than that of a graduate tutor at Peking University."
But in the face of the praise and praise of others, Chen Daoming humbly said: He is just a drama! In order to act, he can wear thin shirts in winter and heavy cotton jackets in the hot summer.
When someone asked him why he was so desperate, Chen Daoming said very flatly: "Bitterness and tiredness are certain, but this is the professional ethics of actors, and I don't think this is something worth hyping."
In order to play the role of Puyi, Chen Daoming began to lose weight desperately, and the drama was widely praised as soon as it was released, and he won the Best Actor Award at the 7th "Popular TV" "Golden Eagle Award" for this drama, and the Outstanding Actor Award at the 9th National TV "Feitian Award".
He played Pu Yi vividly, and even many Manchus said that the two were carved out of a mold, and Chen Daoming also won the title of "Emperor Professional Household".
Second, the quirks when filming
In 2001, Chen Daoming participated in the TV series "Kangxi Dynasty", the overall investment of this drama was more than 20 million, but he did not expect to let CCTV buy all the copyrights of the film at a high price of 35.8 million.
When the Kangxi Emperor played by Chen Daoming appeared in front of the audience, everyone said: "The Kangxi Emperor is back", CCTV gambled correctly this time.
The compact script and the actors' good acting skills soared all the way after the broadcast, and the highest time even surpassed the most popular TV series "Mansion Gate" at that time.
The popularity of the drama naturally made CCTV a lot of money, in just one month, the benefits obtained were as high as 100 million yuan, and Chen Daoming's acting career also went to a higher level.
With this drama, he won the Silver Award for the audience's favorite actor selection of the "Meiling Cup", and the second Sunshine Health TV Star, and was nominated for Best Actor at the 20th China TV Golden Eagle Awards.
As the behind-the-scenes story was exposed, people found that Chen Daoming had two quirks when filming: one was to change the play without authorization, and the other was never taking off his costume.
When filming "Kangxi Dynasty", in order to figure out this ancient emperor, Chen Daoming studied historical records, and ran to the Forbidden City alone to talk to himself and practice his lines.
When playing the plot of "Kangxi Emperor reprimanding his eldest brother before his sick bed", the original set script content was that Chen Daoming coughed violently while pointing at the eldest prince and scolding.
But when the filming really started, the Kangxi Emperor played by Chen Daoming called the other party to his hospital bed after reprimanding the eldest brother, and the director was also confused by this scene.
Before everyone could react, Chen Daoming directly gave the other party a slap, and then gave himself a solid slap, showing the feelings of hating iron is not steel and the son is not godfather.
In order to prevent Chen Daoming's improvisation, directors generally prepare several sets of plans at the same time, and Chen Daoming also has another quirk, that is, he never takes off his costume when filming.
The reason why he did this is to better figure out the role and put himself in the role, especially in the TV series "Kangxi the Great", his dragon robe almost never comes out, and he always makes a Kangxi Emperor posture.
Third, the "fig leaf" was unveiled
In an interview with Chen Daoming, he actually said publicly: "I look down on many directors more and more now", as an actor, he looks down on the director, Chen Daoming is so bold.
Chen Daoming said that in the current costume dramas, the characters in them no longer have connotations, but pay attention to the beauty of bells and whistles, and people's aesthetics have subverted history, which is the manifestation of cultural regression.
Conscientiousness is the essence of an actor, and now the self-proclaimed dedicated little fresh meat, who shouts when they cut a finger, wear a big leather jacket in the summer, and become the credit of an actor.
The three views of Chen Daoming, the "old drama bone", are not only manifested in the acting of the crew, but also in all aspects of life, such as at the party held by director Feng Xiaogang.
At that time, everyone happened to be interested after three rounds of drinking, so they asked the heroine Miao Miao of Fanghua to dance for everyone on the spot, and the others around immediately echoed it.
At that time, Miao Miao wore high heels and a short skirt, which was definitely inconvenient when dancing, only Chen Daoming came forward to relieve the little girl, and the domineering speech was full of warmth.
As a leading figure in the entertainment industry, he actually had a scandal with the "gymnastics goddess" Zuo Xiaoqing, why did two people in different fields come together?
In 1995, 18-year-old Zuo Xiaoqing was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy and officially began his own interpretation road, and when shooting an advertisement, Zuo Xiaoqing and Chen Daoming met.
After having a cooperation, Chen Daoming and Zuo Xiaoqing had more contact, Zuo Xiaoqing was full of worship and love for Chen Daoming, and Chen Daoming appreciated Zuo Xiaoqing.
Subsequently, Zuo Xiaoqing and Chen Daoming filmed the large-scale historical drama "Lying Down and Tasting the Courage" together, and the two played the identity of the couple in the play, it is said that the director did not intend to use Zuo Xiaoqing at that time, it was Chen Daoming who lowered his salary to find this role for Zuo Xiaoqing.
Then someone photographed Chen Daoming and drove to Zuo Xiaoqing's community, so the scandal between the two was spread, Chen Daoming said that it was just a simple shelter from the rain, and Zuo Xiaoqing's agent also completely denied the relationship between the two.
Zuo Xiaoqing also publicly stated on the show: Chen Daoming is like a mentor and friend to himself, and then Chen Daoming and his wife said that they will hold the rumor-mongers accountable.
This scandal is simply nonsense, after all, according to Chen Daoming's popularity in the circle at that time, and his identity as a good husband, it was simply impossible to happen.
Epilogue:
Some people say that Chen Daoming is one of the actors who reads a lot, and some people say that he is the most dedicated actor, and it is worth affirming that he used his more than 40 years of debut experience to tell every junior this truth: you must sink your heart and act seriously!
