Ni Dahong closed his eyes deeply, and his thoughts instantly traveled back to that difficult journey through time and space, and the time that belonged to him chasing his dream of being an actor was like yesterday. Growing up in the atmosphere of an artistic family, he often accompanied his parents behind the real world, backstage on the huge stage, to watch their actual performances.
Watching his parents' wonderful performance on stage, the young Ni Dahong had already planted a seed in his heart, that is, his determination to become an outstanding actor.
However, when he told his parents about this dream with great hope, he was met with resolute opposition. As actors of the older generation, they know the hardships of this industry, and they understand the fact that their son's appearance is mediocre.
"Your choice of acting does not guarantee how much success and fame you will get, on the contrary, you should learn a practical craft" The father's cold and ruthless words were like a hammer hitting the young Ni Dahong's heart, making him feel painful.
However, he didn't let that deter him. "If I don't try, how can I be sure if I'm really not suitable for this industry?" replied Ni Dahong, who decided to explore this unknown path himself.
With the encouragement and support of his parents, Ni Dahong devoted himself to preparing for the exam, and his father also took time to teach him some skills and tricks about acting.
However, fate seems to have played a joke on him, and he failed to take the Chinese opera exam three times in a row, which made him begin to wonder if there was a problem with his voice. Ni Dahong, who once wanted to give up the road of acting, was finally arranged by his parents to enter the Heilongjiang Drama Theater for a long and difficult year.
Those years were undoubtedly a grind for him, but he always adhered to the dream of entering Chinese opera for further study in his heart.
Finally in 1982, he was admitted to the school of his dreams as he wished, and became classmates and friends with outstanding actors such as Zhang Guangbei. However, in campus life, Ni Dahong suffered another setback.
Due to his mature appearance, among many young actors, he is always assigned to play the role of an elder such as "father" or "grandfather", and sometimes even needs to play the image of an elderly character who is seriously ill and has difficulty speaking.
Not only that, but in daily life, Ni Dahong's appearance often causes misunderstandings, and people often mistake him for a school handyman.
After graduating from university, Ni Dahong was assigned to the National Theatre of China as an actor. However, although he has stepped into the door of performing arts, his appearance has not attracted too much attention, so that he has been repeatedly rejected in major crews, most of the time in the crew, only a few moments can win a few appearances, but these characters only have a pitiful few short lines.
On such days, Ni Dahong spent five ups and downs in the theater.
However, a twist of fate occurred in 1991. Although his debut in the TV series "I Am a Hillbilly" was unremarkable, it became the starting point of a new chapter in his life.
In the process of submitting resumes, Ni Dahong and Ni Wei met. Ni Wei is not only Ni Ping's cousin, but also a well-known producer with a good reputation in the entertainment industry, her temperament is elegant and unforgettable.
Although Ni Dahong was just an unknown actor at that time, and Ni Wei was already a hot star, Ni Wei had a deep interest and confidence in this ordinary-looking man.
"This man's future will definitely shine!" Ni Wei said with certainty to his friends. Although her words have attracted many doubts, her feelings for Ni Dahong are as surging as a surging river.
The surrounding relatives and friends discussed: "Do you have a fever in your head, how can you fall in love with a man like Ni Dahong?" However, Ni Wei just smiled indifferently and replied firmly: "Except for him, I will never marry anyone else in my life."
Today's Ni Dahong has entered the age of sixties, but his love for the actor's career has not diminished at all. Every time he received a role he loved, he would be so excited that he would stay awake all night, repeatedly study the script, dig deeper into the character's personality, and even ponder it in his mind before going to bed.
At the shooting scene, Ni Dahong is always fully committed and courageous. In order not to affect the filming schedule, even if he is seriously injured, he will never stop easily, and often wait until the filming of this scene is over, and then he will barely support to deal with the wound.
For example, in a work with Wu Jing, due to the negligence of the props team, a huge plastic plate slashed through his thigh, leaving a bloody wound more than ten centimeters long.
However, Ni Dahong did not complain, and completed the filming of this scene as usual, until the director shouted the command "cut", and he fell to the ground in pain.
The enthusiasm for this dedicated cause stems from the unconditional and full support of the great virtuous helper in the backing family. With Ni Dahong's rising status in the film and television industry, a flood of script invitations came like snowflakes.
Although his wife Ni Wei, who loved him deeply, was worried, after all, the years were unforgiving, and she felt sorry for her husband's overwork.
Therefore, whenever Ni Dahong takes her bags and sets foot in a distant film and television shooting place, as long as she has a short rest, Ni Wei always follows closely behind and silently guards him; if she really can't visit the crew in person, she will use all her spare time to cook a sumptuous and delicious meal with her heart, and ask her assistant to send it to her husband to replenish his energy and vitality.
When night falls, they will also share the trivial things in each other's lives through video calls, and feel the deep concern and care.
Whenever she saw her wife's eyes full of tenderness, Ni Dahong's tired body and mind seemed to be injected with new vitality. During the day, they walk the streets together, shop to their heart's content, or gather with family and friends, share food, taste the purest joy of life, and live the most authentic and warm life of ordinary people.
Although Ni Dahong has experienced ups and downs in the entertainment industry for decades, his acting career has always been limited because his appearance is not outstanding. At first, he could only play some insignificant small roles, and even if he occasionally made a breakthrough, it was just a tricky role with a few lines.
However, the twist of fate occurred in 2012, when he successfully portrayed a father in the movie "Border Storm" and won the Golden Phoenix Award issued by the China Film Performing Arts Society.
Ni Dahong originally expected this award to help him gain a foothold in the film and television industry, but he did not expect to cause an uproar.
Some people compare him with his wife's sister Ni Ping, questioning that he can get these roles, completely dependent on the operation of his sister and wife. The gossip quickly spread in the industry, and Ni Dahong's reputation accumulated through years of hard work suffered a heavy blow.
He wanted to take this opportunity to chase after the victory and star in several excellent works one after another, but unexpectedly fell into another low point in his career.
During that time, Ni Dahong often doubted himself, and whenever he devoted himself to drama creation, he would always ask himself: "Is the acting path I have always adhered to correct?" In the embarrassing days of family life, his wife Ni Wei not only did not complain, but often gave him comfort and encouragement.
"My dear, don't pay attention to other people's eyes, as an actor, our mission is to interpret each character with heart. As long as you can do this, you can fully demonstrate your own value.
Ni Wei looked at her husband in front of her affectionately, her eyes revealed her firm belief in Ni Dahong, believing that he would be able to achieve remarkable achievements.
Finally, with the blessing of the god of luck, after the 2019 family-themed TV series "It's All Good" was broadcast, Ni Dahong relied on his excellent acting skills to portray the role of Su Daqiang, the "fine father" in the play, vividly, and contributed many popular classic lines such as "I want to drink hand-ground coffee", so that the audience laughed and deeply felt his profound acting skills Finally, with this outstanding performance, he won the honor of "Emperor of Vision" in one fell swoop, and his career has climbed to a new peak.
In this way, in just one night, Ni Dahong, an unknown old drama bone, finally became a household name. And his success is undoubtedly inseparable from the support and encouragement of his wife Ni Wei in difficult times.
Whenever the husband devotes himself to the shooting, the wife always does her best to be by his side and give him meticulous care.
Tracing back to the past, Ni Dahong was born in April 1960 in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. He was born in an artistic family, and his father, Ni Zhenghua, was an outstanding performing artist of the older generation in China, who has left a deep mark on many classic film and television works.
And her mother is also an excellent actor in the Harbin Drama Theater.
Since he was a child, in order to wish Ni Dahong a healthy and happy growth, his parents named him "Ni Child". However, Grandpa thought that the name was too arbitrary, so after looking through the dictionary, he changed it to "Ni Jianhong".
However, due to the unique pronunciation of the word "recommended", his family also found it quite inconvenient to use it in daily life, and finally his parents decided to change his name to "Ni Dahong".
Since then, imitating the action lines of movie characters has become Ni Dahong's biggest hobby and source of motivation to move forward. He immersed himself in the best films of Yugoslavia and Romania, and imitated and copied the classic characters in them.
Even old domestic movies such as "Mine Warfare" and "Tunnel Warfare" have been repeatedly pondered and copied by him.
It is a pity that although Ni Dahong's noble parents came from an excellent literary and artistic family, they did not support their son's love for art.
They are more likely to expect their son to master a practical skill, such as carpentry or electrical engineering, rather than choosing to devote himself to this challenging industry.
However, who would have expected that Ni Dahong, who has experienced ups and downs in the entertainment industry for decades, would have a major turning point in his life from a seemingly ordinary woman - his wife?
When he first saw Ni Dahong, Ni Wei was attracted by this mediocre-looking man and had deep feelings for him. "This man's future will definitely shine!" Although the people around her questioned and opposed this, Ni Wei's feelings for Ni Dahong were like a river, and she firmly said: "I will never marry anyone else except him."
It is this kind of unwavering love and selfless support that has become an important turning point in Ni Dahong's life. It not only saved him from the trough, but it also inspired his love and fighting spirit for his career, giving him the courage to continue chasing his dreams outside.
Even after Ni Dahong won the Golden Phoenix Award, in the difficult moment when he suffered serious damage to his reputation due to gossip, his wife still stood firmly by his side, comforting and motivating him with simple words: "As actors, our duty is to play every role with our hearts, as long as you can do this, it is enough to prove your worth, and you don't need to care about the eyes of others."
It is this kind of understanding and support that made Ni Dahong rekindle his passion for struggle, and finally won the "Emperor of Vision" crown of the TV series "It's All Good" in one fell swoop, and his career has reached an unprecedented peak.
In the face of the increasing number of crew invitations, although his wife is deeply tired, when she sees her husband's dedication and dedication to the cause of his beloved, how can she not readily support him? Whenever Ni Dawei comes out to shoot, Ni Wei always does her best to accompany him and give him meticulous care, and if she really can't go in person, she will also carefully cook delicious food and send it to the scene to replenish her husband's energy.
In this way, with the support and care of his wife, this veteran actor who has been working silently in the industry for decades finally ushered in the glorious period of his career and became a well-known star.
There is no doubt that Ni Dahong's success is inseparable from his wife's most solid backing.
