Time flies, the years pass in a hurry, and Pan Jinlian, who once amazed the four, has entered the age of half of the loess. Today, as a successful entrepreneur, Wang Siyi tastes the ups and downs of life alone, she has established her own tea industry kingdom, and often shares her ordinary and extraordinary life in the live broadcast rooms of major short video platforms. When she sat upright and faced the camera, her demeanor was still the same, still flashing with the peerless light of the year, and her figure was still well-proportioned and plump, with a little more mature charm than when she was young.
It's just that when Wang Siyi's eyes turned to the still of Pan Jinlian from "Water Margin" on her personal homepage, she couldn't help but recall the glorious past.
Time has gone through more than 20 spring and autumn seasons, but the imprint left on her by the role of Pan Jinlian is as deep as an unforgettable, deeply imprinted in her life journey. Recalling himself when he was 25 years old, with a keen yearning for his acting career, he devoted himself to the creation of the classic role of Pan Jinlian. She will stand in front of the mirror again and again, repeatedly practicing Pan Jinlian's charming eyes and sultry posture, striving to perfectly present every detail of this character.
Although the role of Pan Jinlian has brought Wang Siyi brilliant achievements in her acting career, it has also caused her to endure countless controversies and accusations. When people see her, the first thing that comes to mind is not the actor Wang Siyi himself, but the amorous and unsympathetic Pan Jinlian. However, now Wang Siyi has learned to face all this calmly, she has lived her ideal life, and has maintained a unique mature feminine charm.
The role of Pan Jinlian, who once caused a sensation, has now become an eternal symbol of reminiscing about her youth in her heart.
For Wang Siyi, becoming an outstanding dancer has been a dream since she was a child. She is very talented, coupled with her mother, who is a veteran dance educator, and has an immense love and dedication to the art of dance. Under the careful guidance and guidance of her mother, Wang Siyi began to receive systematic dance training from a young age. Finally, at the age of 13, she was admitted to the dance department of Taipei Art College, a famous art school in Taiwan, and has since embarked on the journey of chasing her dance dream.
As a gifted student, Wang Siyi has always maintained a diligent and hard-working attitude during her study stage, and she can strive for excellence in every dance move, and the staff and students have high expectations for her. However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people, and just when Wang Siyi was confidently looking forward to her upcoming stage years, a sudden dance training accident ruthlessly deprived her of the possibility of standing on the stage again.
During a regular stretching session, she unfortunately suffered a serious injury that resulted in a torn ligament. After a detailed diagnosis by the doctor, this injury undoubtedly announced her farewell to her dance career, and her dream of youth on the stage came to naught in an instant.
Pain, confusion, hesitation...... After months of painful struggle, with the continuous guidance and encouragement of relatives and friends, Wang Siyi finally regained her enthusiasm for life and decided to show her style on the new stage of life. Her solid dancing skills and charming appearance soon attracted the attention of a well-known modeling agency, thus starting a new chapter in her career - the modeling era.
Faced with this new field, Wang Siyi adapted and threw herself into it at an astonishing speed. She is full of seriousness and perseverance in every modeling work, and gradually emerges in this highly competitive circle. As expected, with her excellent professional quality, she won the highest honor of "Taipei's Top Ten Supermodels" at the age of 19.
Despite initial success in the modeling world, everyone understands that beauty is ephemeral after all. Youth will always pass quietly, and the beauty of appearance cannot be maintained for a long time. When Wang Siyi felt confused and confused about her future career development, Lin Chiling, who was also a model, successfully achieved a gorgeous turn in her life through the cross-border film and television industry, which brought great inspiration and courage to Wang Siyi.
At this time, Zhang Shaolin, a director from the mainland, began casting work in order to shoot a TV series of the same name adapted from the classic "Water Margin". A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity finally came to Wang Siyi. Originally, Director Zhang expected the famous actor Lin Fangbing to play the role of Pan Jinlian, because Lin Fangbing has deep feelings for this role, and he had intended to create this classic image himself many years ago.
However, fate always seems to play tricks on people, especially for Lin Fangbing. During that time, she happened to be in the period of preparing for pregnancy, and in order to ensure the health of herself and her child, she had to make a difficult choice - to withdraw from the competition.
In this fierce casting process, Wang Siyi, who was only 25 years old, finally impressed director Zhang Shaolin with his unique charm and won this award.
"You've got to put your heart and soul into the role, or I can't be sure you'll stay. If you do, you'll become a household name overnight! Director Zhang Shaolin said affectionately to Wang Siyi.
Although Wang Siyi at that time did not have a deep understanding of the phrase "overnight success", she still devoted herself to the creation of the role of Pan Jinlian.
With her accurate grasp of the stage and delicate emotional expression, Wang Siyi successfully interpreted the complex and multi-faceted character of Pan Jinlian vividly, which made the audience deeply admire her.
As expected, with the hit of the drama "Water Margin", Wang Siyi instantly "became popular overnight". Director Zhang Shaolin's prediction to her back then has now come true.
Many advertisers have invited her to endorse their own brands at high prices, and TV stations and film and television companies regard her as a treasure and continue to extend olive branches to her.
However, the smooth development of this career has also brought unprecedented troubles to Wang Siyi. When people see her, the first thing that comes to mind is not the actor Wang Siyi himself, but the image of Pan Jinlian, who is full of charm and affection.
The audience's perception of her has been completely equivalent to the character she created.
This made Wang Siyi feel extremely helpless, is his acting career bound and stereotyped by a role? Could it be that in the future, I can only play the role of a dusty woman like Pan Jinlian forever? She couldn't help but think to herself, it was not easy to break free from this shackle.
In fact, there is indeed such an unwritten rule in the entertainment industry: once an actor becomes famous overnight for a certain role, then the role he will play in the future will often be similar to him.
Unless you can guide the change of the audience's concept and break the stereotype through superb acting skills and unremitting efforts, it is difficult to get rid of the shackles of this role.
Just like the "Sedum" character created by Hu Ge and the image of "Zeng Xiaoxian" played by Chen He, it remains in the hearts of the audience as indelveriously, and Wang Siyi's version of Pan Jinlian deeply imprints this character image. What's even more incredible is that during an interview, she generously said that the actor she admires the most is Ding Haifeng who plays Wu Song! As soon as this remark came out, it immediately detonated a sensational scandal, and even caused Ding Haifeng to part ways with his girlfriend Tang Ge at the time.
Since then, Wang Siyi's name has been closely associated with the role of "Pan Jinlian". Whether it is in the bustling streets and alleys or on the TV screen, what comes to people's minds is always the image of the unsympathetic and charming Pan Jinlian, not the real Wang Siyi himself. This kind of stereotyped troubles undoubtedly brought her long-term troubles.
In the storyline of "Water Margin", Pan Jinlian was originally a virtuous maid from a large family, with the graceful temperament of a country and a beautiful lady. However, due to various intricate reasons, she was finally married to Wu Dalang, a rugged man who made a living selling cooking cakes in the county town of Qinghe.
Wu Dalang lost his father and mother when he was a child, and as the eldest son in the family, he had to take on the responsibility of supporting his family. Despite his humble background, he made a name for himself with his skills. Helplessly, his appearance is too ugly, his face is full of wrinkles, and he is nicknamed "Three Inches", which is in stark contrast to Pan Jinlian, a beautiful woman.
When Pan Jinlian first joined the martial arts, she still tried to adapt to this not ideal married life. She took care of Wu Dalang's daily life, washed and cooked for him, showing the demeanor of a good wife and mother. However, with the passage of time, Wu Dalang's dull personality and mediocre appearance finally made Pan Jinlian completely lose her expectations and longing for this marriage, and gradually bred disgust.
She began to yearn for a husband who could give her endless care and care to appear in her life and soothe the emptiness and loneliness in her heart. At this moment, the handsome and dashing Ximen Qing descended like a meteor and took the initiative to extend a warm embrace to the beautiful and moving Pan Jinlian.
Under the fanning of the proprietress of the teahouse, Wang Po, the two began frequent and secret dates.
At first, Pan Jinlian was filled with deep guilt and uneasiness about this affair, but under the impact of passion and obsession with Ximenqing, she decisively jumped out of the boundaries of moral norms. Although Wu Dalang had long been aware of his wife's infidelity, he adhered to the deep tolerance in his heart and his deep love for Pan Jinlian, and chose to acquiesce and stay out of the matter.
However, his younger brother Wu Song was a strong man and could not bear such a humiliation for his brother, so he killed Wang Pozi and Ximenqing in a fit of rage, and washed away this great insult for his brother.
Although the role of Pan Jinlian has brought earth-shaking changes to Wang Siyi's acting career, and even caused her to fall into "trouble", she is now able to face this past years calmly.
After going through that period of stereotyped haze, Wang Siyi finally learned to find a balance between her career and personal life, and found the positioning of her self-worth.
Now, at more than half a hundred years old, she has lived the life she longs for and maintains a unique mature feminine charm. She founded her own tea brand, and often shared her tea tasting experience with fans on short video platforms, showing a calm and elegant demeanor.
When she stared at the face in the video with delicate and firm skin, lazy and generous expression, and no signs of aging, Wang Siyi finally felt the fullness of life.
In the past, the character of Pan Jinlian, who caused an uproar and brought her endless "troubles", has now returned to tranquility in her heart and has become an eternal symbol of reminiscing about her youth.
Every time she sees those stills on her personal homepage, she is always full of emotion.
At the age of 25, he devoted himself to creating a classic role, and now he has no complaints about this role in his 50s, but has a broader vision of the past.
Perhaps it is precisely because of Pan Jinlian that her life has gone through ups and downs, and finally found her own life path.
Today's Wang Siyi is like a glass of old wine, and the regrets of the past have turned into a rich aroma of wine, with an endless aftertaste. She drinks herself in the mirror, re-examines the path she has traveled for many years, relaxes and enjoys the good times of life.
Although it is embarrassing, many years ago, Wang Siyi was fixed in the role of Pan Jinlian, who was peerless but reduced to red dust, when he was first seen by the audience. However, the excellent actor has stepped out of that shadow and is no longer obsessed with it. She profoundly understands that everyone who is engaged in art should have the right to shape their own unique and irreplaceable artistic vitality with the carving of the years, and should not be imprisoned in a specific role forever.
