Principal Zhang Guimei is the "Person Who Moved China 2020", and her glorious deeds have been reported by CCTV and other official media, and the public is already very familiar with Zhang Guimei.

Zhang Guimei, the founder and principal of Lijiang Huaping Girls' High School in Yunnan Province, is committed to providing educational opportunities for girls in poor mountainous areas, helping them ignite their dreams, study hard, and pass the college entrance examination to get out of the mountains and realize their life value.

She has been rooted in the poor mountainous areas of Yunnan for more than 40 years, and through hardships, she founded the country's first all-free girls' high school, and has helped nearly 2,000 poor girls get out of the mountains and enter the university gate. She herself suffered from many diseases, but she never stopped, devoted herself to the cause of mountain education, and was known as the "Burning Lantern Principal".

CCTV's "Moving China" program once praised Zhang Guimei for "expressing stubbornness to the world with her unrestrained life." You are the laurel of the cliff, the plum of the snow."

01 Zhang Guimei, played by Haiqing, cried the girls with 3 sentences "Xun"

In order to interpret the touching demeanor of Principal Zhang Guimei, Haiqing spent two years experiencing and preparing for the role, and visited Zhang Guimei on the spot to feel the charm of Zhang Guimei's personality.

Look at the comparison chart between the Haiqing stills released by the crew and Zhang Guimei herself, from the image temperament to the costume dress, speech and behavior, is it a god restoration?

Needless to say what role Haiqing plays, everyone knows who Haiqing is playing when they look at this dress and hairstyle!

Haiqing met the girls in the mountains for the first time, and the girls burst into tears, thinking that they had seen the real Zhang Guimei. And the girls' simple and sad words also hurt Haiqing's feelings to tears.

Some of the girls who played Zhang Guimei's students in the film did not go to high school.

A girl cried with emotion, she said, I did not go to high school, and her words were full of regret and sadness.

Another girl said, "I can't understand most of these subjects."

There is also a girl who sighs that playing a female student in this movie feels that her "high school dream" is a little close to it.

Listening to the girls' emotion, Haiqing couldn't help but burst into tears, and she said to the girls: "Finally see you, you have come a long way." One sentence for the girls to tell the bitterness of their lives. After speaking, Haiqing also bowed deeply to the girls.

The crew also released a touching clip.

After all, the Dashan girls are still young, they have not really understood the importance of reading, many girls are free to wander, and they have no attention to learning, Zhang Guimei saw that the students did not understand things, very sad and angry, she angrily said that she wanted to dissolve the high school, let these girls, "Where did they come from and where to go back, go back and continue to herd sheep!" ”

When the female students saw the principal angry, they didn't care at first, and continued to eat or whisper, and then, Zhang Guimei's 3 words, "Xun" cried the girls.

Zhang Guimei shouted to the girls: "These older ones, go back and give birth!" I can't give birth to a child in the mountains all my life! I can't come out in my next life! ”

Principal Zhang Guimei's 3 sentences back then, "training" woke up how many female students who still did not know how to struggle and work hard in ignorance, and these 3 lines of Zhang Guimei, played by Haiqing, also made the girls who played female students present sad and cry!

"Dropping out of school, marrying, having children", these three words may sum up the lives of many girls in poor mountainous areas.

Those amateur girls who play female students, in reality, some of them did not go to high school, some of them preferred sons to girls in their families, maybe marrying and having children, nesting in the mountains for a lifetime, will be their future destiny. Therefore, when they heard Haiqing (Zhang Guimei)'s heart-piercing and vigilant words, how could they not touch their hearts, how could they not be sad!

From this, we can also see how important and meaningful the free girls' high school run by Principal Zhang Guimei is for girls in the mountains. Her hard work and help, her sincere teaching to the female students, is enough to change the lives of these girls!

From the film "I Was a High Mountain", it is enough to feel that in order to play Zhang Guimei, a great woman, Haiqing has indeed put in a lot of hard work in performance, and indeed tried to figure out and experience Zhang Guimei's spiritual realm and thoughts and emotions, and truly feel the humble and helpless fate of the mountain girl.

Haiqing, the image of Zhang Guimei in "I Was a High Mountain" really doesn't look like acting!

Two short films, Haiqing's acting appeal, and the original character Zhang Guimei's own charm, have been moved so that Dewdrop can't help but cry while watching, it's hard to imagine what the audience and Dewdrop will cry when watching the entire movie "I Am a High Mountain".

02 From "Hidden in the Dust" to "I Was a High Mountain", actor Haiqing does not set his own limits, and the road is getting more and more stable

Haiqing, 46 years old this year, is a middle-aged actress that the audience is very familiar with.

Haiqing in the entertainment industry, once had the reputation of "national daughter-in-law", from the 2007 TV series "Double Sided Tape" to 2009 "Worm House", and then to 2010, let Haiqing win 3 performance awards in the urban emotional drama "Daughter-in-law's Beautiful Era", Haiqing has since become the "national daughter-in-law" in the eyes of the public.

However, Chengye's "daughter-in-law" role also failed in the role of "daughter-in-law". Often playing the same type of role, and acting in the public's favorite family drama, Haiqing's "daughter-in-law" image will inevitably make many audiences feel aesthetic fatigue.

In particular, the image of daughter-in-law and mother played by Haiqing in "Little Parting" and "Little Huanxi", a strong mother role common in domestic family dramas, and the image of an urban middle-aged wife with a big temper, loving husband, nagging, and strict conventions for children, makes the audience feel more and more lacking in freshness.

Presumably, Haiqing also realized this problem early on, so she has also been seeking new changes.

In the revolutionary historical drama "Ah Cradle", in the TV series "Zhang Weiguo's Summer", we can see the change in the direction of Haiqing's role, and it is gratifying to see that Haiqing can not only play a good national daughter-in-law and a strong mother who is a little neurotic, but also can also shape other types of roles.

In the TV series "Home of the Heart", although she is also the "daughter-in-law" who plays a big urban family, the daughter-in-law Feng Xiaoqin in "Home of the Heart" has her own scheming, ambition, vanity and tenacity, and is a completely different new role from the daughter-in-law played by Haiqing in the past, Haiqing's acting skills also make this "foreign scheming daughter-in-law" Feng Xiaoqin affirmed and resonated with many audiences.

And the most surprising and unexpected thing for everyone is the rural disabled woman Cao Guiying played by Haiqing in the movie "Hidden in the Dust".

Haiqing's role as Cao Guiying in "Hidden in the Dust" is arguably one of the biggest challenges she has encountered in her acting career.

Li Ruijun, the screenwriter and director of "Hidden in the Dust and Smoke", really wanted to shoot the villagers in his northwest hometown and the stories of the bottom farmers, so he had the idea of this "Hidden Dust and Smoke". However, due to the shortage of funds, Li Ruijun could not even pay the salary of professional actors, and could only use a large number of his relatives and villagers to play roles in the film.

Haiqing heard that director Li Ruijun wanted to make this movie, took the initiative to find the door, was willing to pay zero, and strongly requested to play the heroine of the film.

After the director agreed, Haiqing said he would do it, and before filming, he followed Li Ruijun back to his hometown of rural Gansu to experience life.

In the film, Haiqing plays a seriously ill and physically disabled rural woman, a role that requires her to completely subvert the glamorous urban image of the past and become a marginalized woman who is completely different from herself.

This is tantamount to a very big challenge for Haiqing, because the roles she is most familiar with and good at in the past are all female characters in modern cities.

However, in the face of the huge difference between the role and himself, in the face of the backward living standards in the northwest countryside, in the face of various difficulties such as no flush toilet, only dry toilet, unable to understand the local dialect, and difficult to match and integrate with non-professional actors, Haiqing has overcome them one by one.

In order to better understand the role he played, Haiqing settled in Li Ruijun's hometown. She lives and works with local farmers, learns the local dialect and farm work, and tries to integrate herself into the environment. She constantly communicates with farmers, asks them about agricultural knowledge and skills, imitates and learns from the speech and behavior of the locals, and carefully ponders the character Cao Guiying, a neglected and ridiculed rural disabled woman, who is used to her usual appearance and inner activities.

In addition to these difficulties, the biggest difficulty is to play against the film's male protagonist Wu Renlin. Wu Renlin is the director's uncle, an authentic local farmer, he is not a professional actor, he can play himself.

The difficulty of a professional actor like Haiqing playing against a completely non-professional actor can be imagined. In the middle, how much effort and effort Haiqing has put in, and how many times he has run in with the rival actor, in order to present the perfect and harmonious picture effect in the film, you can know if you think about it carefully.

Haiqing's bold change and hard work were not in vain. After the release of "Hidden in the Dust", the audience was moved by the poor and humble but not lacking in warmth and love in the film, and the tragic encounter and unfortunate ending of Cao Guiying, played by Haiqing, made the audience sad and crying, deeply emotional.

And Haiqing's image and acting skills in the film completely impressed the discerning audience. Because, in "Cao Guiying", you can't see a little bit of Haiqing's own characteristics, this unfortunate low-level woman who is humble to dust, this woman with a thin and disabled body, a dark face, and a cowering expression, is it really the star Haiqing who always has sharp short hair and sharp teeth?

Haiqing, with the determination not to set limits for herself, with her acting skills sinking into life, impressed the audience who were tired of her previous "daughter-in-law role".

This time, Haiqing challenged a different new role again in "I Was Alpine", Zhang Guimei, the headmistress of the girls' high school in the mountains, and, judging from the stills and flowers, Haiqing once again succeeded in the challenge.

In the movie poster of "I Am a High Mountain", Haiqing wears simple, thinning hair, a pair of glasses, and his hands are covered with tape, which highly restores the life image of Principal Zhang Guimei, making everyone exclaim: It's so similar! It's not like acting!

Many netizens, after watching the flowers, were moved by Zhang Guimei, played by Haiqing, and everyone said: Domestic film awards, owe Haiqing a queen!

At that time, when she was a student at the Beijing Film Academy, Haiqing who always had short hair and was like a tomboy, in the acting department of beautiful women, her appearance was not outstanding, and after graduation, she even needed the promotion and help of her teacher Huang Lei to get a supporting role.

However, with the strength to never admit defeat, Haiqing worked hard to find his acting direction - playing his daughter-in-law. Moreover, this performance has become a well-known "national daughter-in-law".

When the image of "national daughter-in-law" has already made the audience a little bored, Haiqing once again challenged herself and did not hesitate to "self-destruct her image" to star in the image of a woman at the bottom of society in a small-cost movie.

When Haiqing took the initiative to ask to play "Cao Guiying", she must not have thought that the film would be so popular after its release, at that time, she may just want to break through the limitations of her role, broaden her actor width and scope, and challenge herself.

However, the actor's intentions, the audience can see and feel.

From "Hidden in the Dust" to "I Am a High Mountain", Haiqing has taken the right path, and her acting road is becoming more and more stable.

03 Where should the actresses of the middle generation go, perhaps, Haiqing's breakthrough can give them a "model"

At a youth film festival one year, Haiqing once publicly "shouted" to the film directors on the scene: "The years have given us experience, wrinkles, experience, tolerance and kindness, and good communication." We're not as bad to work with as the legend suggests. We are professional enough, we must be cheaper than Hu Ge, and it is just as easy to use, I hope you give us more opportunities! ”

Coincidentally, the actor Hu Ge who played Zhang Guimei's husband in "I Was a High Mountain" this time was actor Hu Ge.

At that time, Haiqing's words caused heated discussions among netizens, everyone discussed the plight of actresses of the middle generation, and some netizens also questioned Haiqing's public shouting, thinking that she was "hype".

But Haiqing used a "Hidden in the Dust" to prove that he really thinks so, and also proves that his acting skills can be better than everyone imagines.

In fact, the dilemma of middle-aged actresses is indeed an objective reality that exists in the current entertainment industry.

Compared with male actors of the same age, actresses, especially middle-aged actresses, will undoubtedly be more difficult to transform and more difficult for the public to accept, and at the same time, the acting space and role space left for middle-aged actresses are indeed small and relatively narrow.

Looking at the domestic film and television drama market, the number of domestic films is generally small, and there are even fewer films led by women, especially middle-aged women. And TV series, has always been the world of young protagonists, middle-aged actresses, either, continue to maintain and support on the road of "playing tender", or willing to "accept life", and have since become "mother role professionals".

And the only few film and television dramas with middle-aged people as the protagonists are mostly women's dramas of not too high quality, and they are seriously homogenized.

The heroines in the play, either housewives or full-time mothers, encounter their husbands cheating and then counterattack, or elite women in the workplace, but the marriage is invariably a mess, either divorce or single, fall in love, it must be a bloody sibling love with a huge age difference.

There is not much room left for mesozoic actresses, so they either continue to stay in their former comfort zones and repeat their previous roles; Either switch to variety shows, easily come to a reality show or rap, commentary, etc., you can also make a lot of money, mix faces everywhere, as for how the acting deteriorates, I don't care about thinking too much; Or, go behind the scenes, become a director or producer, and pick up some new actors, which is also a merit; Or, be willing to upgrade to be a "mother", or even give "mothers" to actors who are not 10 years younger than themselves.

Like Haiqing, middle-aged actresses who strive to be a good actor, are unwilling to stay in their acting comfort zone all their lives, take the initiative and dare to break through self-limitation, and constantly seek new performance roles and spaces, there are naturally some in the entertainment industry, but relatively few, therefore, it is more valuable.

From "urban daughter-in-law" to "middle-class mother", to "rural bottom woman" and "mountain female principal", Haiqing's bravery and unhesitation on the road of role transformation may be able to "give an example" to other middle-generation actresses who are confused.

As long as there are no limits for self, no limits on the path of acting, and strive to seek transformation, find and challenge new roles and excellent roles that suit them, I believe that the actresses of the middle generation can also be like those middle-aged actors who are called "old drama bones", with excellent acting skills, with diverse roles of different types and characteristics, to become the real powerful actors in the audience's mind.

In fact, not only mesozoic actresses or male actors, but also those idol actors who started with idol dramas, as long as they dare to seek breakthroughs and changes, as long as they work hard with their hearts, sooner or later they will walk out of their own successful acting road.

Similarly, as ordinary people, we cannot limit ourselves, but strive to break through the barriers of life and work, and seek and strive to create a better and new world of life.

The motto of Zhang Guimei Girls' High School, "I was born to be a mountain, not a stream", is the origin of the title of the movie "I Was a Mountain", and may also become the motto of all of us' dreams and lives.
