On April 21, actor Zhang Zixian became the "center of public opinion" that netizens paid attention to.
In the TV series "Harbin 1944", which was broadcast online on the same day.
The second male Pan Yue played by him made many audiences shine.
Even compared with the two big names in the entertainment industry, Yang Mi and Qin Hao, who are the leading actors in the play.
Zhang Zixian's performance is not lagging behind, and even stole the limelight of the two protagonists for a time.
However, don't look at Zhang Zixian's current scenery, when he first debuted, he also experienced an extremely sad time.
is not from a professional class, and his appearance is a "drama face".
Zhang Zixian, who is full of various "shortcomings", can only play tricks in the TV series.
When Sun Honglei played the leading role, he could only stand next to Sun Honglei and play the little follower.
From "Ten Thousand Years of Dragon Set" to "Gold Medal Supporting Role", how difficult has Zhang Zixian been along the way?
Idols lead the way
When he was a child, Zhang Zixian had a soft spot for painting.
The parents were also very happy that their son could have such a hobby, and spent a lot of effort to cultivate their son's art ability.
Perhaps, when he was a child, Zhang Zixian also fantasized that he would become a famous painter when he grew up.
However, a performance on the Spring Festival Gala in 2000 completely changed Zhang Zixian's dream.
When he saw Nicholas Tse shining on the stage, he was deeply shocked.
It was on that night that he decided to put down the paintbrush in his hand and start pursuing his dream of stardom.
No one knows how Zhang Zixian persuaded his parents to agree to his whimsical approach.
During the college entrance examination, he applied for the famous Beijing Film Academy.
Maybe it's because of his bad grades, or maybe it's because his appearance is not up to par.
In the end, Zhang Zixian failed to be admitted to the Beijing Film Academy.
In order to chase his dream, he began to work behind the scenes in a film and television company.
At that time, he was struggling to survive in Beijing with a salary of 3,500 a month.
Sometimes the company's performance is not good, and it can't pay wages for several months.
At the worst time, he was reluctant to buy a 6 yuan box lunch.
In the company, he has written scripts and worked as a director, which can be called an all-round talent and is highly valued by the boss.
But unfortunately, due to poor earnings, the company finally closed down, and Zhang Zixian suddenly fell into the dilemma of unemployment.
Fortunately, when he first worked in the company, he met many friends in the circle.
Under the introduction of a good friend, he entered the crew of the movie "Mei Lanfang".
At the beginning, he just worked in the crew every day, and he was not an actor.
But he worked hard and attracted the attention of director Chen Kaige.
Under Chen Kaige's arrangement, he began to play Sun Honglei's little follower in the movie.
This acting experience not only strengthened his determination to break into the entertainment industry.
also won him the praise of the great director Chen Kaige.
In 2010, Zhang Zixian played a post guard in "Detective Di Renjie".
Although he got a few acting opportunities over the years, it was almost all out of the show.
Some friends also advised him to change his career as soon as possible, after all, he is not too young.
But Zhang Zixian, who refused to admit defeat, still wanted to hold on for a while.
Finally, after a long wait, he waited for his chance.
Don't forget the original intention, you have to always
After many years in the entertainment industry, Zhang Zixian is still an unknown person.
He didn't have the opportunity to play a more important role at all.
Just when he was feeling confused about his future, the appearance of a noble man made Zhang Zixian's situation turn around.
By an unexpected chance, Zhang Zixian met Zhu Min's director Jia Xiaoxiong, and the two hit it off at first sight and chatted very speculatively.
Zhang Zixian's ideas for movies are very compatible with Jia Xiaoxiong, and the two have collaborated on many film and television works.
One of the most well-known is the short film "My Name is Huang Guosheng".
In 2017, after this work was launched online, it immediately received praise from netizens.
Zhang Zixian played the starring role in the play, and his excellent acting skills conquered many audiences.
Whether it is word-of-mouth or playback, "My Name is Huang Guosheng" was one of the best works at that time.
The cooperation with Jia Xiaosheng not only allowed Zhang Zixian to attract the attention of countless fans.
It also made many directors see his potential, including the famous director Ning Hao.
As a famous comedy director in the entertainment industry, Ning Hao has successively become popular with well-known actors such as Huang Bo and Guo Tao.
Being favored by Ning Hao is definitely a blessing for Zhang Zixian.
With the help of Ning Hao, Zhang Zixian successively starred in film and television dramas such as "The Second Generation of Goblins" and "Beneficiary".
Although they all played supporting roles, his wonderful acting skills still attracted the attention of many audiences.
With the continuous improvement of popularity, Zhang Zixian's resources are getting better and better.
"Later Us", "My Hometown and Me", "Ten Thousand Miles Home", ......
One wonderful work after another has made him gain the reputation of "gold medal supporting actor" in the entertainment industry.
When the time comes to 2023, Zhang Zixian directly ushered in the explosive period of his works.
In the movie "School Dad", he played the role of "Brother Huo" who was deeply loved by children.
In the movie, this character seems to be the closest companion of the children, always putting himself in the children's shoes.
Zhang Zixian accurately understood the psychological thoughts of "Brother Huo", and used his superb acting skills to vividly interpret the characteristics of the characters.
After the movie was released, many viewers even surpassed the actor Huang Bo in their love for him.
In December last year, the movie "The Three Teams" co-starred by him with Zhang Yi, Li Naiwen and others was released in cinemas.
Zhang Zixian's performance in the movie is deeply loved by the audience.
His role as "Liao Jian" is full of joy, and whenever he appears, the movie theater can always burst into a burst of happy laughter.
Throughout 2023, in addition to starring in many excellent movies, Zhang Zixian's performance in TV series is also remarkable.
The two TV series "Ordinary Road" and "Grandma's New World" took his acting career to the next level.
In 2024, Zhang Zixian has not stopped moving forward.
On April 21, when the new drama "Harbin 1944" he starred in was broadcast, it immediately became a hot topic among netizens.
Among them, what the audience cares about the most is the acting skills of the actors in the play.
The characters of the new drama amazed the audience
As a blockbuster TV series directed by the famous director Zhang Li.
The TV series "Harbin 1944" gathers many well-known names in the entertainment industry such as Yang Mi, Qin Hao, and Lin Jiachuan.
Before it even started, all kinds of information about this TV series had already begun to go viral on the Internet.
Many people are full of expectations for this TV series, but as soon as it started, the acting skills of the protagonist Yang Mi made many netizens deeply disappointed.
may be unable to accurately understand the inner world of the characters, Yang Mi in the play always reveals a look of overexertion.
The way the eyes widen from time to time makes the audience feel very funny.
The acting skills of the other protagonist Qin Hao are obviously more mature, both in terms of lines and demeanor, they are more natural and vivid than Yang Mi.
In the whole TV series, the most surprising thing for the audience is Pan Yue played by Zhang Zixian.
Although he is only a supporting role, his expressiveness in the play is not lost to the two protagonists Qin Hao and Yang Mi.
In front of his boss, Pan Yue played by Zhang Zixian is an "honest man" who is submissive and obedient.
But behind the scenes, he's a different face entirely.
In the face of the weak woman, he made the other party tremble with a roar of rage.
In the process of interrogating the prisoners, he used all kinds of cruel means to force the other party to confess.
The sentence "life is worthless" shows the image of the cold and terrifying executioner vividly.
Many viewers were immersed in Zhang Zixian's amazing acting skills and couldn't extricate themselves.
I believe that as the plot continues to be broadcast, the image of this character will definitely be fuller.
epilogue
After the storm, there will always be a rainbow.
In the most difficult period of his life, Zhang Zixian did not give up his dream and finally succeeded in becoming popular.
Although the process is painful, the joy of success is enough to offset all the previous sadness.
I wish him the best of luck in the days to come, and he will continue to bring wonderful works to the audience.
