7.8 billion in 8 days! "Waste" Lei Jiayin deceived everyone
8 days, 7.8 billion!
The popularity of this year's Spring Festival stalls has broken the box office records of all Spring Festival stalls in Chinese film history.
The fierce competition has successively withdrawn three films, and even "Mr. Red Carpet" directed by Ning Hao and starring Andy Lau announced that it would be rescheduled to avoid the war.
In the midst of a fight, the sixth "10 billion filmmaker" in the mainland film industry was quietly born:
Lei Jiayin.
Jia Ling's "Hot and Hot", Lei Jiayin is the leading actor, and Zhang Yimou's "Article 20", Lei Jiayin also provoked the beam, and the box office of these two movies together has exceeded 4 billion.
Last year's Spring Festival, Lei Jiayin had already earned enough influence in a muffled voice.
played Qin Hui in "Man Jianghong", fell in love with Zhang Xiaofei in "Exchanging Lives", and successfully changed from a TV series actor to a leading actor in the film market.
Some viewers said, "Lei Jiayin is out, maybe he will be able to carry the box office in the future."
And just before, Lei Jiayin, Guo Jingfei, and Bai Ke were also known as the "Waste" Three Musketeers.
From a waste of money to a box office of 10 billion, Lei Jiayin "deceived" everyone.
贾玲减了100斤，雷佳音有了100亿
Lei Jiayin was born with a sense of joy, and his friend Guo Jingfei commented that "Lei Jiayin is a piece of fun".
On the red carpet of the Golden Horse Awards, facing the camera, he posed like this:
is obviously a post-80s generation, but because of his old appearance, he mixed into the "uncle circle" in advance.
It wasn't until he was 28 years old that Lei Jiayin liked to mention the Best Newcomer Award. was ridiculed by friends in public, why do you think you are 28 years old and won the "newcomer" award?
Even in the first ten years of Lei Jiayin's role as an actor, he couldn't be hooked with the word "tens of billions" at all.
In 2002, 19-year-old Lei Jiayin was admitted to Shangju with the second place in the country and became Hu Ge's junior brother.
When Lei Jiayin was a sophomore, Hu Ge had already starred in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" Li Xiaoyao and quickly became popular, and almost overnight, the whole drama was talking about this name.
Classmates Chen He and Sun Yizhou entered the public eye with "Love Apartment", and senior brother Guo Jingfei won all the awards in the drama industry.
At that time, Lei Jiayin fell into extreme self-doubt.
In 2012, director Ning Hao took a fancy to the momentum of Lei Jiayin's "Northeast Street Slutter" and let him star in "The Great Gold Robbery".
As a result, Lei Jiayin defeated Chen Kun and Liu Qingyun and won the Best Actor Award at the 11th China Changchun Film Festival.
Ning Hao praised him: "His acting is very divided, he can play a gangster, a love saint, and a big hero, which is really rare." ”
At that time, he thought to himself, this time it should be his turn to be popular, right?
It's a pity that the box office of this movie was dismal, and he still didn't become popular after all.
In 2015, when Lei Jiayin was filming "White Deer Plain", even his frustration had reached its peak.
In order to get close to the characters, Lei Jiayin worked together with the local villagers, and he and the crew lived in the depths of the Northwest Plain, almost isolated for 8 months.
This year was the outbreak of reality shows, countless people became popular overnight, and Lei Jiayin was cutting wheat in the field.
He began to doubt himself and felt that he really couldn't go on.
As a result, Lei Jiayin finally waited for a chance to explode.
In 2017, "The First Half of My Life" required Lei Jiayin to play a scumbag, and the people around him collectively persuaded him, "You must be cautious, this is a character who cheats in marriage, and he may be scolded very badly."
But Lei Jiayin took the scumbag to a new level: the cheating man Chen Junsheng he played was not only a scumbag, but very three-dimensional.
even created a new way to open the role of "scumbag" - scum, but many people can't hate him.
"The First Half of My Life" made Chinese aunts fall madly in love with the domineering president Jin Dong, and finally gave Lei Jiayin her own name "ex-husband brother".
Ma Yili, who plays his wife Luo Zijun in the play, said: "The role of Chen Junsheng can't be played by anyone, only Lei Jiayin is suitable." ”
At that time, Lei Jiayin only positioned himself as a "supporting role".
He said: "Everyone else is very famous, Ma Yili, Yuan Quan, Jin Dong, everyone must look at them, and when they look at the flowers, they may be able to see my green leaves." ”
This year, Lei Jiayin was 34 years old.
Lei Jiayin of "point back",
actually played all the supporting roles!
Because after the explosion of "scumbag" and "nest feeling", Lei Jiayin was not restricted.
The amazing thing is that no matter how Lei Jiayin usually "puts it badly", it is easy to be brought back to his "good actor" positioning when he looks at his play.
Funny and funny, he can.
Play someone crying, he can too.
It seems that two completely different scenes can be used on Lei Jiayin at the same time, and they do not violate the harmony at all.
How do you do the "drama-throwing" acting?
After becoming famous, many actors may stop in the safe zone, or suffer from "labeling".
Either they try to prove themselves ugly, but they frequently overturn, or they are always fixed in a kind of character and keep repeating.
In fact, Lei Jiayin is only very "hanging" outside the set, but he is very smart in filming.
When Zhang Yimou's "Man Jianghong" was looking for Lei Jiayin to play Qin Hui, Shen Teng was shocked when he heard it: "Shocked! ”
Lei Jiayin's first reaction was "Can I act?" and "Will I be scolded?", if you want to play Qin Hui, you will face two major problems:
1. Compared with other fictional characters, historical figures like Qin Hui must not only take into account the public's acceptance when acting, but also be creative.
2, after starting the film, I got the script, and Qin Hui, who was originally scheduled to play when he was 40 years old, was changed to 50 years old, and the gap with Lei Jiayin was too big.
After staying at home and pondering for two months, Lei Jiayin cleverly found a solution - if you can't completely play the old, then I will play "sick".
He found Qin Hui's weakness.
Through a sick body, he deduced the dark and sick state of this traitorous minister, and even Zhang Yimou praised "I didn't expect to be able to act so well." ”
Lei Jiayin can play evil and right.
Zhang Xiaojing, played by Lei Jiayin in "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", is ruthless and vicious, not angry and arrogant, and respectful and afraid of him in black and white.
When the movie "Embroidered Spring Knife" was released, how many people contributed to the box office for male gods like Zhang Zhen and Zhang Yi, and as a result, they all remembered Lei Jiayin without exception when they walked out of the cinema.
Zhou Bingkun, played by Lei Jiayin in "The World", is the only person in the family who was not admitted to college.
Lei Jiayin performed Zhou Bingkun's ordinary, ordinary, and also grasped the inferiority complex that left his bones in his original family.
The 70-year-old Wang Haiyu, the screenwriter of "The World", watched Lei Jiayin's performance and couldn't help but say two words: "worship".
In 2022, at the Golden Eagle Festival Awards Ceremony, he won the title of Emperor with the role of Zhou Bingkun in "The World".
This year, Lei Jiayin was 40 years old.
The title of tens of billions of actors,
Who is real and who is fake?
Back to last year's Spring Festival, with the box office of "The Wandering Earth 2" breaking 2 billion, Wu Jing became the first actor in the mainland with a box office of 30 billion.
Chinese filmmakers have also officially entered a new era of 10 billion.
Immediately afterwards, Huang Bo, Shen Teng, Zhang Hanyu, and Wang Baoqiang also mentioned this title one after another.
At that time, the title of "10 billion box office actor" had a high gold content, which meant that he had acting skills and could carry the box office.
However, in order to enter the ranks of tens of billions as soon as possible, many actors have begun to "take advantage of loopholes".
For example, Du Jiang, who was questioned before, was certified as the fifth Chinese actor with a box office of 10 billion yuan as Maoyan, and it took only three years to achieve this achievement, and he was also the first among the post-80s.
But if you take a closer look at the results, they are not satisfactory.
The top two box office of his works: "Operation Red Sea" and "My Motherland and Me". He doesn't have many scenes in "Operation Red Sea", and "My Motherland and Me" is a platter movie.
The most outrageous is "Paddington Bear 2", Du Jiang is just dubbing.
Du Jiang is not the only one who has been ridiculed for his tens of billions of films.
In October 2020, Liu Haoran became the first post-95 filmmaker to break 10 billion. In his movie box office statistics, "My Motherland and Me" and "My Hometown and Me" and other "platter" movies appeared, and they also accounted for the majority of the total box office.
Everyone's dissatisfaction is not aimed at Liu Haoran and Du Jiang.
Everyone's ridicule is essentially unconvinced by this way of counting box office appeal.
Huang Bo won the box office champion of the year with 1.2 billion yuan of "Heart Flower Road", and finally became the first 5 billion actor after many years of accumulation.
At that time, Huang Bo said in an interview: What is the matter with the box office exceeding 100 million now, in fact, it is the same as the 5 billion, and it will sound like a joke to you in a few years.
In the hearts of the audience, the criterion for distinguishing between "tens of billions of titles" and not water is very simple:
There are no works that can be handled.
Some people questioned that Wu Jing always made patriotic movies, but in order to shoot military themes, Wu Jing went to the army for two years for training, and directly became the backbone of the business, breaking many records in his unit.
Huang Bo starred in 44 movies from his first work "Get in the Car, Let's Go" to his famous work "Crazy Stone".
relies on one work after another.
On the stage of dramas, TV series, and movies, Lei Jiayin has created no less than 40 large and small roles.
has played a farmer, played a dick, played a hawker who sold pirated CDs, played a scumbag, and played an elite.
In the performance coordinate system imagined by the audience, Lei Jiayin is more like an actor who can be infinitely extended to the positive and negative poles.
The top can be the most loyal, and the lower can be the great traitor.
Cao Dun, director of "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", said that when the film was less than a third of the way up, he felt that Lei Jiayin might not be able to hold on, and was even a little worried that he would run away. But by two-thirds of the time, worry turned into fear, "afraid that he would work too hard and hang up."
And Li Lu, who has watched "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an" in its entirety, set Lei Jiayin as Zhou Bingkun's first choice in "The World".
He felt that Lei Jiayin was malleable and had no traces of acting, so he mobilized friends from all walks of life to find him, and even found the head teacher when he was studying in the play.
Stage experience allows him to easily master a variety of roles, cute or cute, righteous or ruthless, almost any role to him can make the audience remember it in a second.
As for the title of 10 billion, it doesn't seem to be that important.
As Lei Jiayin said:
"It's really dignified to let the audience know by acting. ”
