After a long and bitter half a year, Zhang Songwen, who has been baptized by wind and rain, finally stood on the screen again with a new attitude. The role he created with his superb acting skills is not the protagonist, but with the Golden Goblet Award actor Dapeng and the Academy Award actor Dapeng vividly performed a high-profile crime film - "The Eighth Suspect".
As a "top star lineup" created by the producer at no cost, the audience is full of endless expectations and love for this work.
However, when the film was officially released, "The Eighth Suspect" failed to meet people's expectations in terms of word-of-mouth. The brilliance of the cast contrasts sharply with the thinness and mediocrity of the plot, which undoubtedly makes people feel extremely regretful and regretful.
The word-of-mouth feedback has fully demonstrated the true face of this film.
Since the TV series "Hurricane" became famous, Zhang Songwen has only participated in the filming of two film and television works, in addition to "The Eighth Suspect", he also played an important role as the male number three in "More than Endless".
Although these two works attracted widespread attention because of Zhang Songwen's addition before their release, the final box office and word-of-mouth results were not satisfactory, which undoubtedly brought huge psychological pressure to Zhang Songwen.
Recalling the moment when he became popular overnight with "Hurricane", Zhang Songwen's heart was full of joy. As a once unknown little person, his outstanding performance in that series made him instantly a household name, and his popularity is even expected to be comparable to the popular Xiaosheng Luhan, and he frequently appears on the list of hot topics.
However, this beauty is like a flash in the pan, and now he seems to be back to the starting point, and the glory of being known as the "uncrowned actor" seems to be about to fade.
The biggest dilemma that Zhang Songwen is currently facing is the extreme lack of high-quality film and television resources. Although he has won unanimous praise from industry insiders for his outstanding acting skills, he is struggling to win the resources of big productions.
Completely different from the practices of other actors, Zhang Songwen has always kept a low profile to avoid excessive consumption of personal influence, and has only taken over advertising endorsements from two well-known brands so far.
As a veteran actor who has been engaged in the acting career for many years, he knows that the honor won with "Hurricane" is not easy to come by, and he will never easily take the opportunity to hype, so as not to affect his reputation and image.
In contrast, actors such as Su Xiaoling and others, who are also from the "Hurricane" series, chose to find another way, making full use of their super popularity advantages, boldly taking on all kinds of advertising endorsements, actively participating in various popular variety shows, and quickly transforming the accumulated popularity into considerable commercial value.
These two completely different ways of behaving profoundly reflect the differences in individuals' understanding of the word "fame and fortune".
The reason why Zhang Songwen has such a firm dedication to "fame" is mainly due to his special status as a senior teacher at Beijing Film Academy, and the unforgettable experience of being a judge of the film festival with industry giants such as Zhang Yimou.
These prestigious titles undoubtedly make his personal reputation more valuable in his eyes, fame is far more important than profit, and it is the highest quality that an actor must always adhere to.
There is no doubt that Zhang Songwen's excellent acting skills have long been widely recognized and warmly praised by industry insiders. This profound skill is not only due to his years of diligent study and hard teaching at the Beijing Film Academy, but also from his incomparable love and unremitting pursuit of performing arts.
Zhang Songwen, who has participated in many excellent film and television masterpieces, is familiar with the interpretation of various role types. Whether it is the image of a heroic chivalrous man created in the spy war drama "Revolutionary", or the upcoming new work of the same theme "Lonely Boat", the audience is full of endless expectations for the wonderful performance of this "old drama bone".
However, it is deeply regrettable that although Zhang Songwen has extraordinary acting skills, the high-quality resources he has access to are quite scarce. In addition to "Hurricane", which is known as an industry benchmark, he has only participated in two mediocre films in the past six months - "More than Endless" and "The Eighth Suspect".
In "More than Endless", although Zhang Songwen only played a supporting role, the filmmaker overpackaged him as the leading actor, which brought too high expectations to the audience, and finally disappointed everyone.
As for "The Eighth Suspect", although the film has a luxurious lineup, the creative standards of the director and screenwriter have not met expectations, resulting in a significant reduction in the overall quality of the film, which is really sad.
Faced with such a severe predicament, Zhang Songwen set his sights on the upcoming spy war drama "Lonely Boat", expecting this work to become a dawn that will lead him out of the trough.
Spy war dramas have always been a field that Zhang Songwen is proficient in, and many years ago, he showed outstanding acting talent in the film "Revolutionary", which makes people sigh at his profound skills and unique understanding of such themes.
Now, he is about to challenge this familiar field again in his new work "Lonely Boat", and industry insiders have expressed their anticipation for his wonderful performance.
However, it is worth our attention that the starring cast of "Lonely Boat" does not seem to be satisfactory. The two leading actors, Zeng Shunxi and Chen Duling, are both new generation actors, and their performance level is still unknown in the entertainment industry.
The audience may not know much about these two young leading actors. When they face a powerful actor like Zhang Songwen, who can be called an "old drama bone", can they show extraordinary performances under his guidance? After all, the success of an excellent film and television work often depends on the control of the starring lineup.
Although Zhang Songwen's acting skills have reached the point of perfection, if the performance of other actors in the play is not satisfactory, then the whole work may not be able to show dazzling brilliance.
Therefore, whether "Lonely Boat" can be an opportunity for Zhang Songwen to regain his glory still seems to be full of uncertainty.
At present, Zhang Songwen is cautiously maintaining the popularity and influence he has accumulated after "Hurricane". The honor of being known as the "uncrowned actor" is really hard-won for him, and he naturally doesn't want this glory to disappear.
Deep down, Zhang Songwen has extremely high expectations for the series "Lonely Boat". After all, this is already one of his rare resource challenges in recent times. As a powerful actor who is accustomed to "gentle transformation", I believe he will be able to sway freely in the play and bring a new visual feast to the audience.
However, with the passage of time, will the brilliance brought by "Hurricane" be able to continue? When will Zhang Songwen really get rid of the problem of lack of resources and regain the crown of his own "uncrowned actor"? All these questions can only be pinned on the final performance of the series "Lonely Boat".
If "Lonely Boat" can achieve the desired word-of-mouth success, I believe that Zhang Songwen will take advantage of this opportunity to regain his strength, otherwise, he may fall into a long waiting period again.
For this artist, who has entered the golden age of his life, the passage of time has already made him deeply realize the preciousness and finitude of time. All he could do was do his best, keep a calm mind, and patiently wait for that moment to come to his own opportunity.
When faced with the serious challenge of "fame and fortune", Zhang Songwen's choice is undoubtedly highly commendable, however, there are also some potential dangers. Excessive obsession with one's reputation may drag down the realization of business value, fall into deep confusion, and find it difficult to find a breakthrough.
In contrast, an industry leader like Zhang Yi is able to firmly refuse to pursue fame and fortune. He himself is a vast sea of artistic treasures, with the honor of "Three Award Actors" and the famous "Emperor of Vision", he has become a symbol of strength.
For a giant of his level, fame and fortune are no longer the only goal he chases.
However, for middle-aged actors like Zhang Songwen who are in the re-emerging stage, the situation is different. After a long period of low ebb in their acting careers, how can they maintain and improve their self-development vitality after they emerge, and how to find a balance between their personal image and commercial value? These are all questions that they must think deeply about and make careful choices.
Zhang Songwen's experience has brought us a profound warning. Although excessive pursuit of exposure can increase one's popularity in a short period of time, if there is no internal resource support, then this exposure will be as fleeting as a spark.
How to find a balance between fame and fortune is indeed a major issue that needs to be treated with caution.
