The study journey paves the way for a long-cherished wish
In 1993, 21-year-old Duan Yihong left his hometown in Xinjiang and came to Beijing for the third time with youthful passion and actor dreams to take the entrance examination of the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama.
Facing the tide of candidates pouring into the examination room, Duan Yihong felt slightly anxious, and he took a deep breath and tried to keep himself calm. I still remember the first college entrance examination two years ago, when I came to Beijing full of hope, I was brushed off in the first test, and my father's sigh behind me still lingered in my ears.
That failure made him depressed for a long time, and even began to question his dream of being an actor.
But interest and love of acting eventually triumphed over low self-esteem and confusion. After leaving Beijing, Duan Yihong returned to his hometown in Xinjiang and began to beg for guidance on his performance path at the Yili Repertory Theatre.
At first, many senior actors were dismissive, but his persistence eventually touched a Chinese opera teacher. Under the guidance of this teacher, Duan Yihong has a deeper understanding of performing arts and absorbs more essence.
With these accumulations, he doubled his confidence on the way north for the second time. can expect to be disappointed, and the three attempts are still missed by the Chinese opera.
The repeated failures have not dispelled Duan Yihong's firm pursuit of the actor's dream. Now it is the third time to challenge the entrance examination of Chinese opera. Looking at the test paper in front of him, Duan Yihong took a deep breath, he knew that he had to go all out.
During the Spring Festival that year, his father paid his precious tuition fees; His mother told him to take care of himself with red eyes; These expectations turned into a huge motivation, which drove him to stand out in the exam, and eventually he became the candidate with the highest score in the Northwest Region, and got his wish to enter the Xi of the Department of Chinese Opera Performance.
Duan Yihong experienced many obstacles, and finally opened the door to Chinese opera through unremitting efforts.
This time, he fought with his back to the water and shined at a critical moment. In the Xi life of the Chinese Opera Performance Department, while his acting skills are getting better and better, Duan Yihong also has a crush on his classmate Tao Hong, but unfortunately this school love ended in nothing.
After graduating from Chinese opera in 1998, Duan Yihong's initial journey in the entertainment industry is about to be.
Career starts, and rises to the challenge
After graduating from university, Duan Yihong was full of longing to enter the entertainment industry for development, which can be described as groundbreaking and hitting walls everywhere. At first, he worked as an official and a half-job at the National Theater, although he was nominally a drama actor, but he could only play some role as a substitute and lived a hard life.
At first, life was not satisfactory, with few job opportunities, a meager income, and living in a humble basement. Duan Yihong often hangs alone in a small rental house in a daze, looking at the night scene outside the window, and his heart is surging with indescribable emotions.
At this time, the call from Tao Hong, a college classmate, was like a light, allowing him to find a trace of comfort in the dark.
In 1999, during an internal audition of the repertory troupe, Duan Yihong was unexpectedly photographed by the director and won the opportunity to star in the police drama "The True Colors of the Criminal Police". In order to create the killer, who should have played a supporting role, he repeatedly figured out and Xi the action of pulling a gun thousands of times, until the killer's temperament was perfectly interpreted and fully attracted the audience's attention.
This performance made Duan Yihong famous in the circle.
In 2006, he successfully interpreted the role of sniper Yuan Lang in the war drama "Soldier Assault", and his superb acting skills are eye-catching. Since then, his acting career has been smooth sailing and gradually getting better.
In particular, the role of the dragon article in the drama "My Captain, My Group" starring in 2010 was even more refreshing to the public, and since then he has established the status of a powerful actor.
It can be seen that Duan Yihong gradually reached the peak of his career with his excellent acting skills and indomitable fighting spirit. From a small actor who has nothing to an actor who can now be on his own, he has experienced too many ups and downs in the middle.
But he was not defeated by difficulties, but became more and more courageous, with his signature attitude of "willing to be crazy for the play", step by step to today's achievements.
Beauty is accompanied by a winner
In 2002, Duan Yihong met Japanese-Chinese actress Wang Jin while filming the costume drama "Proof of Memory". The two fell in love because of the play, and often chatted and talked after work, and fell in love for a long time.
Wang Jin's family background is unusual, she is half Japanese, and her parents have successful careers. When I was a child, I immigrated to Japan with my family to study, and I took a lot of cultural courses.
When he grew up, out of interest in acting, Wang Jin returned to China to study Chinese opera and acting. Therefore, compared with Duan Yihong, Wang Jin's growth environment is more favorable and relaxed. But this did not prevent her from falling in love with Duan Yihong at first sight, but added fun to this relationship.
At that time, Duan Yihong's acting career had not been able to break through, but Wang Jin always stood behind him to give spiritual encouragement. She often sang to him, "Believe me, you will definitely become the best actor in China!" This sentence flowed warmly in Duan Yihong's heart, dispelling all the confusion and powerlessness.
It was Wang Jin's support day and night that made Duan Yihong repeatedly defeated in his later career, and finally climbed to the pinnacle of success.
In 2010, Duan Yihong, who had a successful career, felt that he was finally worthy of Wang Jin, so he solemnly proposed to her under the witness of his friends. Wang Jin happily accepted it, and the union of the two moved everyone - it turned out that all sincere love would eventually bear fruit at the destined moment.
In 2011, the two held a grand wedding in Beijing. Wang Jin's father came to the stage and said: "In the past ten years, I have observed that Duan Yihong, a young man, works in a down-to-earth manner and has a deep love for Wang Jin, and they will become a model couple."
"After marriage, the two of you and I are in love.
Happily married, a winner
After getting married in 2011, Wang Jin gradually withdrew from the entertainment industry and became Duan Yihong's most solid backing. She retreated into the background, kept her family life in order, cared about her in-laws' daily life and food, and was filial and virtuous.
And Duan Yihong, whose career is at its peak, is more focused. Every play is like a starring role for him, he regards every role as life and devotes himself to portraying the characters.
In order to play the character properly, he can repeat an action thousands of times, rehearsing through the night every day until he integrates himself into the character. "Willing to be crazy for the play" is his life creed, and this kind of awe and perseverance makes his performances deeply move the audience and consolidate his status as a powerful actor.
In his spare time, Duan Yihong is also actively involved in family chores. The husband and wife lived a simple life and did not indulge in extravagance because of fame and wealth. Duan Yihong often cooks a few specialty dishes for his wife, or prunes flowers and plants, and reads and writes.
Wang Jin is often worried that he is overworked, and Duan Yihong will also cooperate with his wife's advice to adjust his work and rest appropriately to ensure physical fitness. "Actually, I'm a little man at home.
Duan Yihong said with a smile that Wang Jin is in charge of all major family affairs.
In the past 11 years, the married life of the two has been stable and happy, and the outside world has rarely heard of their lace news, which shows the eternal relationship. Now 45-year-old Duan Yihong is not only a popular and sought-after actor, but also a successful winner in life in the eyes of the public - a bumper harvest in career and family, finding a bosom partner, and enjoying the calm and calm in the glory and wealth.
