Early this morning, the entry of #Mo Xiaobei is 31 years old# suddenly rushed into the top 10 of the online hot search list, which instantly aroused heated discussions among netizens.
The topic also exceeded 20,000 likes within 15 minutes.
Of course, it's no wonder that this topic will arouse widespread attention from netizens, after all, everyone's impression of Wang Shasha is still in "Wulin Gaiden", the head of the Hengshan faction "Mo Xiaobei" who wants to eat rock sugar gourds every day.
I never thought that "Wulin Gaiden", which brought countless laughter to the audience with a flick of a finger, has been released for 18 years.
I really have to sigh: time flies so fast!
However, many netizens also questioned why when I was a child, I thought that "Mo Xiaobei" was smaller, but now she is older than me.
It's just that everyone is more sorry for Wang Shasha, the actor of "Mo Xiaobei", who is almost in a state of "disappearing" in the entertainment industry...
It can be said that Wang Shasha, who debuted as a child star, grew up watching the audience, and her acting skills and strength are obvious to everyone.
However, when it comes to her entry into the industry, it was an accident.
In 2003, 11-year-old Wang Shasha went to the countryside near Baiyangdian to experience the hardships of rural life under the arrangement of the school.
It was also this event that made Wang Shasha meet Xu Geng, the director who was casting for his upcoming TV series "Little Soldier Zhang Ga".
At that time, Xu Geng felt at first glance that Wang Shasha's character and temperament were very consistent with the role of the female number one "Yingzi" in his TV series.
More importantly, Wang Shasha still has a spirit of not being afraid of hardship, so Xu Geng threw an olive branch to Wang Shasha.
In this way, Wang Shasha got the role of "Yingzi" in "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", and together with the child stars Gazi and Zhang Yishan, in Baiyangdian, they performed a story of the young Eighth Road fighting wits and courage with the Japanese army invading China.
Of course, Wang Shasha did not disappoint director Xu Geng, in the process of filming, no matter how hard and tired she was, Wang Shasha gritted her teeth and persevered.
Not only that, Wang Shasha also takes every scene seriously, and it is precisely because of this that Wang Shasha vividly interprets the bravery and kindness of the role of "Yingzi".
After the TV series was broadcast, Wang Shasha soon entered the public eye because of the perfect shaping of the role of "Yingzi", and was loved by the audience.
It is based on Wang Shasha's wonderful performance in "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" that Xu Geng admires Wang Shasha very much.
So, not long after, Xu Geng learned that his friend Shang Jing had trouble for the role of "Mo Xiaobei" in the upcoming sitcom "Wulin Gaiden", so he directly recommended Wang Shasha, who has superb acting skills and great aura, to Shang Jing.
Rao was when Wang Shasha auditioned, Shang Jing was already psychologically prepared for Wang Shasha's acting skills, but he was still amazed by Wang Shasha's acting talent.
was the first audition of Wang Shasha, and was decided by director Shang Jing and successfully won the role of "Mo Xiaobei".
In "Wulin Gaiden", Wang Shasha can be said to portray the quirky character of "Mo Xiaobei", the head of the Hengshan faction who wants to eat rock sugar gourd every day.
Because her performance in "Wulin Gaiden" was too good, at that time, Wang Shasha would never be a general cognition in the future, so it was engraved into the hearts of the audience.
Even many entertainment media are full of praise for Wang Shasha's acting skills.
For example, Hao Yaning, a well-known entertainment critic, once gave Wang Shasha high praise and said bluntly:
Wang Shasha in "Wulin Gaiden", although she is only 13 years old, has the IQ of a 30-year-old smart woman. ”
In the praise of the public, Wang Shasha's film and television resources are getting better and better.
So, Wang Shasha struck while the iron was hot.
In 2006, he starred in the children's movie "13-Year-Old Girl", and later this film became a shortlisted film at the 14th College Student Film Festival.
In 2008, Wang Shasha continued to work hard, and this year, she became popular again with the role of "Silly Girl" in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".
It's just that at that time, Wang Shasha's shortcomings in appearance began to be revealed.
Especially later, after Wang Shasha participated in the little hero "Ai Hu" in "Bao Qingtian", Wang Shasha's appearance gradually became the focus of public discussion, and even paid more attention to Wang Shasha's acting skills.
However, even so, Wang Shasha still chooses to work the road of acting.
In order to allow herself to receive more systematic acting training and make her future acting career go further, Wang Shasha began to take Beijing Film Academy as her target college.
Just want to knock on the door of Beijing Film Academy, it is far from enough to rely on acting skills, and cultural classes must also be passed.
At that time, Wang Shasha had already delayed a lot of classes because of acting, and her grades were almost at the bottom of the class.
In order to improve her cultural class results, Wang Shasha chose to temporarily press the pause button on her acting career and began to focus more on her studies.
After a long period of bad compensation, Wang Shasha's performance in cultural classes has finally improved.
It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that Wang Shasha finally made up for the cultural class, but she fell behind in the professional class.
Because of her appearance, Wang Shasha was very good in cultural classes and acting skills, but when she tried it for the third time, she was still rejected by Beijing Film Academy.
In desperation, Wang Shasha went to the Shanghai Theater Academy, which was willing to accept her at that time, and became classmates with Guo Xiaoting and others.
Because of her dream of being an actor, Wang Shasha worked very hard in her studies after entering the Shanghai Theater Academy, which also made Wang Shasha's already excellent acting skills more exquisite, and her grades have always been among the best.
With her excellent grades in school, Wang Shasha won many awards during her study at the Shanghai Theater Academy.
Later, Wang Shasha went all the way to graduate school and won a master's degree.
It's just that when Wang Shasha stepped into the showbiz again after graduation, with full of talent and enthusiasm for her acting career, the showbiz has almost become a world of traffic stars.
In the entertainment industry where traffic was king at that time, it no longer matters whether actors have superb acting skills.
As long as the appearance is high enough and there is capital behind it, then you can get the top resources in the entertainment industry, and with the top resources, you will become the top in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, Wang Shasha's proud acting skills are no longer the foundation of an actor's life, and appearance is the best stepping stone in the entertainment industry.
As a result, Wang Shasha, who is bent on taking the powerful route and does not have any capital support, is difficult to move an inch in the entertainment industry.
In order to be able to obtain capital support, Wang Shasha has struggled in her acting career.
In order to get a good role, Wang Shasha participated in many performance variety shows to show her face, such as "The Birth of an Actor" and "Actors Please Be in Place".
It's a pity that in these variety shows, Wang Shasha's acting skills have not been recognized by the show judges.
In 2020, Wang Shasha finally made a decision to transform and began to develop in the direction of idol dramas that were easy to make actors popular at that time.
Because of her fame and strength, Wang Shasha won the role of the heroine "Xu Kaikai" in the urban idol drama "Falling in Love with the Chef Next Door".
According to the plot of this drama, "Xu Kaikai" played by Wang Shasha, as a chef Xiaobai, ran to the restaurant next door to be an "undercover agent" in order to save the dismal business of his small restaurant, but accidentally sparked a spark of love with the chef of the restaurant next door.
Under normal circumstances, the heroes and heroines in this kind of Mary Sue drama, no matter what their acting skills are, will be high-matched.
It's a pity that Wang Shasha's appearance can't support this type of heroine at all.
Therefore, whenever Wang Shasha has an intimate scene with the male protagonist, it is always because she has no sense of CP, which makes netizens call it too dramatic.
Especially when Wang Shasha said the sweet and greasy lines, it made people feel uncomfortable from the heart.
So, after the release of "Falling in Love with the Chef Next Door", Wang Shasha was sprayed by netizens.
Fortunately, at the age of 29, Wang Shasha found a suitable development path for herself in period dramas.
Because Wang Shasha's appearance can always give people a more rustic feeling, therefore, in period dramas, even if you don't wear makeup, there is no sense of disobedience.
For example, in "Mountains and Seas" broadcast in 2021, the young rural mother played by Wang Shasha is wrapped in a headscarf, holding a child, with a yellow face and thin muscles, and a gray face.
What's more, when playing this kind of character, Wang Shasha is in a much better state than when she played an idol drama.
Facing the camera, let it go more openly, and act naturally and more realistically.
It was Wang Shasha who portrayed the role of a young rural mother in "Mountains and Seas" very successfully, which made Wang Shasha reverse the criticism.
After that, Wang Shasha seemed to have found the direction of her efforts, began to shine in period dramas, and continued to break through herself.
So, in the period drama "Love in Jiudaowan" released in February this year, 31-year-old Wang Shasha once again played a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
In fact, in the entertainment industry, this phenomenon of older actors playing little girls is not uncommon.
For example, 38-year-old Yang Junjun who plays an 18-year-old girl.
62-year-old Liu Xiaoqing, who plays a 16-year-old girl.
Of course, this kind of general is a flood of bad reviews, but the 31-year-old Wang Shasha plays a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, and there is indeed no disobedience.
The clear eyes and bright smile are completely in line with the appearance of a sixteen or seventeen-year-old rural girl.
It can be said that in period dramas, Wang Shasha can go up to the aunt in the countryside and down to the little girl in the countryside, and she can do it with ease.
It's just that even so, Wang Shasha is still tepid, and after one or two decades of ups and downs in the entertainment industry, everyone's impression of her is still "Yingzi" in "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" and "Mo Xiaobei" in "Wulin Gaiden".
And taking a closer look at Wang Shasha's journey in the entertainment industry over the years, people can't help but think of Yang Zi, who is the same as Wang Shasha, who is also a child star debut, and has also fallen into an embarrassing situation because of her appearance.
Of course, for Wang Shasha's current "embarrassing situation", Yang Zi, who is also a child star, has already explained the reason.
Back then, when Yang Zi was filming "Family with Children", she was advised by Song Dandan not to enter the entertainment industry in the future because she was not beautiful enough.
However, Yang Zi at that time did not believe in evil, and still plunged into the entertainment industry with his lonely courage.
Later, because of the obesity in adolescence and the acne on the face, Yang Zi really hit a wall in the entertainment industry, and for a long time, even though Yang Zi's acting skills are very good, she has been in an embarrassing situation where she has no drama to film.
Gradually, Yang Zi also understood the deep meaning of Song Dandan's words back then, as Yang Zi once said in an interview:
"In the entertainment industry, if there is no appearance, no traffic, and no commercial value, then in the first round of auditions, you will be replaced!"
After realizing the cruelty of the entertainment industry to mediocre actors, Yang Zi chose to judge the situation.
In order to get traffic and get more acting opportunities in the entertainment industry, Yang Zi began to work the road to beauty.
In order to become beautiful, Yang Zi lost weight, improved clothes, tried different makeup, and even fell into a plastic surgery storm because of this.
After going through all kinds of efforts, Yang Zi's appearance has finally been greatly improved.
Coupled with the fame of filming "Family with Children" when she was a child, Yang Zi quickly became a favorite in the entertainment industry, changing the dilemma of having no drama to film.
has resources and strength, so that Yang Zizi quickly made achievements in the entertainment industry and became the top of the entertainment industry.
It's just that the road of traffic actors is still too harsh on the appearance of actors.
Even though Yang Zi has done a very good job on the road to becoming beautiful now, and has come up with a lot of works over the years, she will still fall into controversy because of her appearance.
For example, he participated in Harper's Bazaar, but because of the tiredness on his face, he was ridiculed and hit in the face "Simon has no hatred".
For example, I filmed a small fresh style advertisement, but I was ridiculed for being too bloated, as if I had just finished confinement.
However, Wang Shasha chose a completely different path from Yang Zi's judgment of the situation.
Even if you see through the cruel truth that there is no way to become a traffic star in the entertainment industry without good looks, it is difficult to obtain film and television resources in the entertainment industry, but in the end, Wang Shasha still insists on herself.
Even in an interview with the media, he bluntly said:
"Definitely not going for plastic surgery!"
Perhaps it is precisely because of Wang Shasha's insistence on self that she chooses a suitable way for herself in various film and television dramas, and finally, in the period drama, she finds a suitable development direction for herself.
I believe that in the near future, Wang Shasha will definitely make good results in period dramas.
epilogue
In fact, whether it is Yang Zi's judgment of the situation or Wang Shasha's self-insistence, there is nothing wrong, but the two made different choices when facing the road of acting.
And the path chosen by Wang Shasha may be more bumpy than Yang Zi's path.
But I believe that in the end, they will all end up in the same way.
Looking forward to Wang Shasha in the entertainment industry as soon as possible and blooming her own brilliance.
At the same time, I also hope that everyone will support Wang Shasha, a powerful actor, after all, such a good actor, if he disappears from the entertainment industry, it will really be a sorrow and loss for the entertainment industry and the audience.
