Preface
A merry heart makes a cheerful countenance!
In the past few days, Zhang Songwen has been very busy!
A few days ago, he just "combined" with Mr. Lei on the hot search, and now there is another Madame Tussauds.
No wonder Chen Kaige looked at Zhang Songwen differently back then!
However, as soon as Zhang Songwen appeared this time, his eyes were already red!
It turned out that on 4.11, Madame Tussauds Beijing announced that Zhang Songwen's live-action wax figure would be settled.
As soon as this news came out, countless middle-aged and elderly women went to greet Zhang Songwen.
I have to admit that Zhang Songwen can be called a killer!
When Zhang Songwen saw a large number of fans cheering for him, his eyes suddenly turned red.
He immediately folded his hands and constantly bent over to express his gratitude to the fans.
Compared with those celebrities who let a large number of security guards drive fans away as soon as they appeared, Zhang Songwen is sober in the world.
In fact, it can be seen from here that Zhang Songwen is still the low-key and ordinary Zhang Songwen.
After the event, Zhang Songwen's move widened the gap with all the stars.
After the event, Zhang Songwen announced that he would take away all the flowers given by fans outside at his own expense.
The first is to reduce the trouble caused to the sanitation workers, if these sanitation workers are allowed to transport, they will have to ride a small car back and forth at least dozens of times.
The second is that Zhang Songwen doesn't want the life of these flowers to only come here, he wants to bring these flowers home to raise.
It can be called "diligent and thrifty".
And so, a miraculous scene appeared!
In the evening, someone asked Zhang Songwen, are you tired from participating in the event today?
Unexpectedly, Zhang Songwen was very warm-hearted, and he actually pruned the flowers given to him by fans and raised them in a vase.
It can be said that in Zhang Songwen's body, you can see the brilliance and kindness that many stars have never had.
In fact, this also shows that Zhang Songwen's fire is a matter of time and time.
However, Zhang Songwen's fire, in fact, he has reached the triple realm.
The first realm: building the foundation
The foundation here is not the foundation in the immortal cultivation novel, strictly speaking, he is more like a sleeping seed.
In 1976, Zhang Songwen was born in a small county town called Xinfeng in Guangdong.
His father was a veteran soldier, and his mother was a doctor.
And his "foundation building" also has a lot to do with his parents' careers.
Because my father was away from home for a long time as a soldier, my mother sometimes had to go out to treat the sick.
At that time, Zhang Songwen was only 3 years old and could already take care of himself, but it was not suitable to go out to follow his mother for treatment.
It happened that there was a place to show a movie at that time, so his mother put Zhang Songwen there, let him watch the movie, and asked neighbors and friends to take care of it.
In this way, under the influence of his ears and eyes, Zhang Songwen gradually fell in love with movies.
But at this time, "the foundation stone laid is not stable".
When Zhang Songwen was 13 years old, his mother suddenly felt body pain, and when she went to the hospital for examination, she learned that her mother had liver cancer, which was already in an advanced stage.
Zhang Songwen behaved very well-behaved in order to let his mother recuperate with peace of mind, but in fact, he pretended to be his mother in his heart, and he had no intention of studying at all.
Although it was not very cold that winter, Zhang Songwen's mother still did not wait for spring.
And Zhang Songwen waited for spring, but he didn't wait for an excellent report card.
Due to his poor grades, Zhang Songwen entered a vocational high school.
At that time, the society was in a stage of vigorous development, and hotels were rising from the ground, which was in need of a large number of hotel management talents.
Therefore, Zhang Songwen chose hotel management.
But in fact, this is the moment when the "foundation building" is completed.
The tiger's greatest attack power is often shown before he dies, and people have an idiom for this: to fight back when he dies.
But if you don't "pounce" out, you will accumulate a huge obsession in your heart.
Zhang Songwen is in this state, he likes movies but can only be a hotel management student in a vocational high school.
The slimmer the chances of fulfilling his dream, the more eager and eager he is to enter the film industry!
"Building the foundation" has been completed, and the next step is to "tie the Dan".
The Second Realm: Yudan
In 1994, he ushered in the gift of fate.
It was also this year that he stepped into the second realm: Yudan.
The so-called knot pill, in the virtual concept of cultivating immortals, is a step to solidify "qi" into "dan".
To put it bluntly, it is the precipitation, comprehension, internalization, and absorption of life experience.
This is a necessary step on the way to the Tao.
And Zhang Songwen is in this realm, and the first step is to step into the China Travel Service Group.
It turned out that after Zhang Songwen graduated, he was assigned to a hotel by the school to do management work.
But this is not a job that Zhang Songwen likes, and he can't find a little fun.
Coincidentally, at this time, China Travel Service Group recruited tour guides.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
In fact, Zhang Songwen's love for tour guides is far less than that of movies.
But he likes to read, he likes to think, he likes to meet different people, meet different things, and listen to their stories.
Generally speaking, Zhang Songwen is a person who is very good at drawing energy from the outside world to nourish himself.
Including later, when he made a movie and entered the role, he also used this method.
But that's all for later.
In 1994, Zhang Songwen passed the examinations and entered the China Travel Service Group.
Because Zhang Songwen has read a lot of books, he has a lot of knowledge in his mind, and his face is also very elegant and kind.
So the company gave Zhang Songwen many routes in China and some routes in Southeast Asia.
And Zhang Songwen did not live up to the expectations of the company's leaders, and there was no one in every tour group he led who did not say good!
As a result, he has also won the title of "Best Tour Guide in Guangdong Province".
As a native of Shaoguan, he also trained a large number of excellent tour guides for his hometown.
It can be said that Zhang Songwen is already a model in the industry at this time.
But a sentence from a female colleague directly changed Zhang Songwen's life.
That day, Zhang Songwen was chatting with his colleagues in the office.
Somehow, a few people talked about dreams.
Someone asked Zhang Songwen what is his dream?
Zhang Songwen said the dream that he had suppressed for many years, saying that he wanted to engage in the film industry.
Immediately, his eyes showed a deep disappointment.
A female colleague noticed it and asked why she didn't go if she wanted to.
Zhang Songwen said that he was at this age and had no chance.
But the female colleague said that there is still a chance, and this opportunity is at the Beijing Film Academy.
When Zhang Songwen heard this, he did not hesitate, immediately resigned to buy a ticket, and arrived in Beijing the next day.
But the road of life is never easy.
Zhang Songwen went to Beijing Film to consult and learned that the directing department has been full, and there is only an acting major at present.
He liked everything about movies, so although he was disappointed, he excitedly enrolled in the acting major.
The year was 2005, and Zhang Songwen was 29 years old.
In front of a group of young and beautiful boys and girls, he can be called an uncle.
Therefore, during his college years, he was affectionately known as the old ghost by a classmate named Zhou Yiwei.
At first, Zhang Songwen was excited after entering the school, but soon he encountered a problem: Mandarin was not standard.
Prior to this, most of the tour groups led by Zhang Songwen were local tourists in Guangdong, so all along, he spoke Cantonese, and Mandarin was not good at all.
Sometimes Zhang Songwen went to the cafeteria to eat and shouted fish-flavored eggplant, but the aunt who was cooking was stunned and couldn't understand, so she simply ignored him and called the next one.
At first, Zhang Songwen didn't think so, but he felt that life was a little inconvenient.
Unexpectedly, Mandarin is also part of the exam.
It was reported on the Internet that he received a notice that he would be ordered to drop out of school if his Mandarin was still not standard in 4 months.
In desperation, Zhang Songwen could only use a "cruel" way to train himself.
In the old society, some old artists who relied on ventriloquist storytelling, in order to exercise their pronunciation, would usually go to the river to touch a few pebbles and put them in their mouths.
In order to practice his Mandarin as soon as possible, Zhang Songwen also learned to put a stone in his mouth.
In fact, stones do not correct pronunciation postures, and its principle lies in punishment.
Four months later, Zhang Songwen finally practiced fluent Mandarin, but this did not bring him good luck.
When I graduated, a large number of directors and crews came to the school and took away batches of classmates.
On the contrary, Zhang Songwen, who graduated first in his major, was not taken a fancy to.
Fortunately, the school leaders let him work as a teaching assistant at the school, so he was barely able to survive.
But it's just "survival", he can't even reach "life".
Pick up the vegetable leaves that others don't want to cook, and go to the crew to submit after eating.
At the craziest time, he met with 600 crews, but none of the crews wanted him.
In the winter of 2005, a character finally found Zhang Songwen, but Zhang Songwen didn't like this role, and even said:
I'd rather freeze to death than shoot!
In fact, this is because Zhang Songwen attaches great importance to his reputation.
He didn't want to sell his reputation for "a few taels of broken silver".
It is also his character of "not bending his waist for five buckets of rice" that attracted a director named Lou Ye.
With the support of Lou Ye's resources, Zhang Songwen gradually became famous in the entertainment industry.
Usher in the third realm: Ascension!
The Third Realm: Ascension
In 2020, Zhang Songwen's "The Hidden Corner" became popular all over the country.
Although the "evil children" in the film are very eye-catching, Zhu Yongping, played by Zhang Songwen, is the fullest character arc, showing the helplessness and struggle of adults vividly.
Therefore, it also became a small fire in the circle.
2023 can be called Zhang Songwen's "Year of the Dragon Gate".
This year, Zhang Songwen carp jumped into the dragon gate, and became the hottest star in the country at that time with "Hurricane", and there was no one.
From Mohe to Hainan, from Fuyuan to Kashgar, as long as there is the Internet, there is Zhang Songwen.
It is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Songwen at that time was almost comparable to Andy Lau at his peak.
On the red carpet of Beijing Film in April last year, the great director Chen Kaige took the initiative to take half a step forward and shake hands with Zhang Songwen, and even took the initiative to hug Zhang Songwen's shoulders when taking a group photo.
These actions alone have already shown Zhang Songwen's super popularity.
And this "self-funded flowers" incident proves that Zhang Songwen is still the same Zhang Songwen, he is still so "diligent and thrifty" and "low-key and introverted".
epilogue
A sentence in "Peach Blossom Fan": I saw him rise up a tall building, I saw him feast guests, and I saw his building collapse.
Its practical sentence is the most appropriate warning for the entertainment industry.
Just ask how many celebrities, after becoming famous, can't see the reality clearly, and are proud of their achievements.
And he was greeted only by "the building collapsed".
Therefore, I hope that those little fresh meat who are not at peace and have a solid foundation will learn from Zhang Songwen.
After all, the more ripe and abundant the ears of rice, the lower the profile!
