Gong Beibi, 46 years old, although she has rich acting experience, she always seems to play a supporting role in popular dramas, becoming the so-called "gold medal green leaf". Her performance in "Cheng Huan Ji", although there were not many scenes, left a deep impression on the audience.
Gong Beibi was born in a family with a strong interest in literature and art, and her mother's love had a profound impact on her. Her sister is a well-known local child star, and Gong Beibi grew up under the aura of her sister. Fate seems to have arranged a different path for her.
The crew of the movie "You Are Not Sixteen" was filmed in her hometown of Quanzhou. Originally, director Mi Jiashan and assistant director Zhang Guoli chose Gong Beibi's sister to participate, but her sister was unable to participate because of her busy studies. Fifteen-year-old Gong Beibi was temporarily brought to the filming site, and her special feature, that little tiger tooth, was reminiscent of Gong Li, who was in the limelight at the time.
Her image is very similar to Gong Li, which made her quickly earn the title of "Little Gong Li" in the circle. She realized that if she wanted to make a difference in the entertainment industry, she had to undergo formal acting training. She was determined to be admitted to the Central Academy of Drama, although the number of admission places at that time was extremely limited.
Gong Beibi did not enter the Central Academy of Drama in the end, but this did not stop her from pursuing her dream of acting. She began to accept a variety of roles, big and small, and did her best.
Gong Beibi, who has entered middle age, seems to have found her comfort zone - a strong business woman. In "The Story of Chenghuan", she played Zhang Peisheng as such a character. Zhang Peisheng is the acting president of Yueda Group, with unlimited scenery. This word "generation" also foreshadows her tragic end.
The relationship between Zhang Peisheng and the "Mai family" is particularly complicated. Lao Mai saved her life at a critical moment, and out of gratitude, she hired Lao Mai as a driver and arranged for Mai Chenghuan to work in her hotel. Zhang Peisheng, who seems to be affectionate and righteous, chose to refuse because of Liu Wanyu's interest in borrowing a luxury car, showing her actual ruthlessness.
Gong Beibi also has a similar performance in other episodes. In "Please Call Me Director", she is Tan Songyun's noble quartz, a behind-the-scenes promoter who helps the protagonist climb up step by step. In "Going to a Windy Place", she played Liu Yifei's sister Xu Hongmi, a character with complex emotions.
Gong Beibi's fame has not risen to the rank of protagonist because of the success of these characters. She always seems to be outside the shining point, becoming the one who pays silently behind the brilliance. This situation is not uncommon in the entertainment industry, and many excellent actors do not become the brightest stars for various reasons.
For Gong, this does not mean failure. She once mentioned in an interview that she enjoys the joy of acting, whether it is the main role or the supporting role, it can bring her satisfaction. Her goal is not to pursue fame and fortune, but to be able to make every character live in front of the audience through her own efforts.
This kind of persistence and love has won Gong Beibi respect and recognition in the entertainment industry. Although she did not become a top star like Gong Li, she left an indelible mark on every role in her own way. Every time she performs, it is a profound tribute to the profession of an actor.
In Gong Beibi's career, we can see the growth, transformation and persistence of an actor. In front of the screen, she is the perfect cosplayer of complex characters, and behind the screen, she is an artist who insists on herself and does not follow the crowd.
