Preface
In the dazzling entertainment industry, stars are like a tide and works are like rain. However, what really makes people feel awe-inspiring is not the number of works, but the connotation of the actors. They may not be many, but they have forged classics and shaped the generations.
These powerful actors, with their own efforts, have performed their roles vividly and vividly, which is unforgettable. They did not rely on the appearance of the vase, but conquered the hearts of the audience with their solid acting skills.
Six-year-old children
He can be said to be the son of a monkey opera family, and he has been bathed in the atmosphere of monkey opera since he was a child. Almost everyone in this family is the actor of the Monkey King, as if the essence of the monkey show has already seeped into their blood.
At a young age, the six-year-old boy showed an amazing talent, and he was able to interpret the monkey vividly, as if he had really become the flexible and witty monkey king.
In such a monkey opera family, Liu Xiaolingtong ushered in a huge turning point in his acting career. At that time, the famous director Yang Jie was preparing to shoot "Journey to the West", one of the four famous novels.
His eyes did not set his sights on Liuxiaolingtong, but sought the help of Liuxiaolingtong's father, the monkey opera master Zhang Zongyi. However, it was Zhang Zongyi's confidence and support for his son that made Liu Xiaolingtong stand out and finally play the starring role of Monkey King.
In film and television works, the performance of Liu Xiaolingtong did not disappoint the director's expectations at all. During the filming, he continued to delve into the behavior habits of monkeys,
Even in order to better interpret the image of Sun Wukong, he endured the scorching heat and wore heavy monkey hair clothes, which can be described as his best. In the end, the image of the Monkey King he presented amazed the audience and became the real Monkey King in the minds of countless people.
The career of the six-year-old boy did not end with smooth sailing. As he became famous, he seemed to be bound by his role, and he starred in a series of monkey roles one after another, and it seemed difficult to break through.
What is even more regrettable is that some of his words and deeds have also aroused questions and controversies, such as promoting new films at other people's funerals.
As time passed, Liuxiaolingtong's career seemed to be at a low point. The reputation of his film and television works has gradually declined, and he has even made some inappropriate remarks many times, causing dissatisfaction among public opinion.
He brazenly flaunted himself as the only qualified Monkey King in some shows, and even criticized the performances of other actors, which also damaged his image in the industry.
Like a dazzling star, Liu Xiaolingtong once shone in the film and television industry, but as time passed, his light seemed to gradually dim. Maybe it's because I'm too obsessed with my role, or maybe it's because I lack enough challenges and breakthroughs.
His career gradually came to a standstill. Maybe for the audience, he will always be the vivid Monkey King, but for Liu Xiaolingtong himself, maybe this is not enough to meet his pursuit of acting career.
Li Guolin
Li Guolin, who was once a frequent guest of Hong Kong TVB and created the unforgettable villain Gu Mozhi in the classic drama "Dragon Babu", has now entered another stage of his entertainment career.
Since the 70s and 80s, he has been well-known in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, but as time goes by, the competition has become more and more fierce, and he has found that his roles are becoming fewer and fewer, and the mainland market has not brought him new opportunities.
In order to make a living, he turned to the live streaming industry. Despite being 67 years old, he still tried his best to maintain the image of Hatomachi, with long hairstyles attached to his earlobes, but the years have carved deep wrinkles on his face, and his eyes have lost the sharpness of the year.
He tried to use his former on-screen star effect to attract fans, but the results were not satisfactory.
Li Guolin's live broadcast room did not attract much popularity, even if he tried to broadcast live for several hours, it was difficult to sell a few items. This is undoubtedly regrettable, and it also reveals the cruel reality of the entertainment industry.
What's even more surprising is that he even got involved in the sale of feminine products, such as sanitary napkins, which is an attempt that can't help but be embarrassing.
Li Guolin's transformation path also reflects the changes in the entertainment industry. Former stars, even if they have been deeply involved in the entertainment industry for many years, can hardly escape the torrent of time.
As they get older and the market changes, some former stars have had to find new ways to survive. However, not everyone can go through the road of live streaming, and success requires not only the halo of stars, but also real strength and market sensitivity.
For Lee, this may just be a turning point in his entertainment career, and there may be other opportunities waiting for him. But in any case, his experience is part of the development of the entertainment industry, and it is also a case that makes people think about the value and significance of a star career.
Liu Dan
Liu Dan, a talented young actor, became the focus of attention with the role of Concubine Xiang in "Huanzhu Gege". In this play, her graceful dancing is unforgettable, dancing like a butterfly, attracting the audience to fall in love with it.
Liu Dan has been studying dance diligently since he was 12 years old, and has a deep accumulation and love for stage performances.
Although she was not a veteran actor when she first joined the crew of "Returning the Pearl", her hard work and perseverance made her performance in the play stand out. Her beauty comes not only from her appearance, but also from her pursuit of art and sincere interpretation of her role.
What is especially touching is that although Liu Dan is of Han nationality, he can wear ethnic minority costumes with a different style. This is especially evident when she plays Concubine Xiang, whose gorgeous costume complements her temperament, making people feel as if they have seen the real Concubine Xiang in history.
Her charm comes not only from her appearance, but also from her understanding and portrayal of the character. In the crew, she worked tirelessly to rehearse the dance, and in order to play the role of Xiangfei more perfectly, she even often stayed up late to rehearse, and used sweat and hard work to create the vividness and charm of the role.
Fate is unpredictable. When the young Liu Dan was 25 years old, he died young because of a car accident, which is embarrassing. At her memorial service, many members of the crew who had performed with her came to say goodbye, and they mourned the young and talented actor, like the concubine in the play, who left an eternal mark on this world and flew away like a butterfly.
Although Liu Dan has left us, the role of Xiangfei she played will always remain in the hearts of the audience. Her performance has become a classic, and no one can replace it. The drama "Huanzhu Gege" is not only loved by the audience because of its wonderful plot, but also has become an immortal classic because of Liu Dan's interpretation of the role of Concubine Xiang. Her passing is embarrassing, but the wonderful performance she left behind will always shine in the hearts of the audience.
You Benchang
You Benchang, a name, but carries a legend. His acting career can be called a legend among legends, and the most shining role is "Jigong". This role not only won him the love of countless audiences, but also made him a unique presence in the industry.
When he was a child, he was sent to the temple and worshipped Venerable Xingci as his teacher. This origin story seems to have laid a certain foundation for him to become Jigong in the future. And in 1985, You Benchang, who was 52 years old at the time, played this legendary role in the TV series "Jigong".
Although there are only 8 episodes, this drama has made the audience remember You Benchang forever. Later, "Jigong Living Buddha" and "Jigong Travels" left a deeper imprint on him on the basis of this role.
Although You Benchang has played many other roles, in the hearts of the audience, he will always be the kind and upright Jigong. The solidification of this single image may be a bit embarrassing.
After all, an actor's performance is colorful but limited by one image, which is somewhat emotional. Every time he faces the media, You Benchang is inevitably asked questions about Jigong,
His answer was always the same: "I just happened to play myself once." This sentence may also hint at his deep understanding of the identity of an actor, an actor is just playing someone else's role, even a legendary role like Jigong is only a part of his career.
Throughout You Benchang's entire acting career, you can see his talent and hard work. Although Jigong has become his most talked-about role, the other characters he has portrayed are also worth mentioning. Perhaps we should pay more attention to his performance in other works, after all, a good actor should not be bothered by an image.
epilogue

Although they each face different challenges and dilemmas, their stories are all part of the entertainment industry and a reflection on the value and meaning of acting.
In this rapidly changing era, their persistence and struggle tell us that the road to acting is not a smooth road, but as long as you have dreams and persistent pursuits, you can create your own brilliance. Their experience teaches us that the real connotation lies not in the superficial glamour, but in the solid inner cultivation and true understanding of the role. May we all be like them, continue to forge ahead, and achieve our own classics.
