Since the dawn of his youth, Ni Dahong has emerged with his extraordinary acting talent. During his time at school, although his appearance was not outstanding, he was always able to play roles such as "old man" and "father" in various stage plays and sketch rehearsals with his excellent acting skills, which were well received by teachers and students.
The teachers often said to him with approval: "Ni Dahong, you will become an outstanding actor!" However, this seemingly ordinary words of encouragement have become a source of faith and motivation for him to move forward firmly in his 20-year career.
After his first foray into the film industry, Ni Dahong has played many insignificant small roles one after another, and has always maintained a high degree of professionalism. Even if he only needs to make a brief appearance in front of the camera or play a silent corpse, he will do his best to interpret each role.
Although he has been ruthlessly eliminated by the director many times, as well as others have belittled his appearance and questioned his role choice, he has never given up the pursuit of performing arts. In his heart, there is no distinction between high and low artistic ethics, and the size of the role is the mission, which is his firm attitude towards each role.
Twenty years have passed, and it has been a long and difficult journey for anyone. During this period, Ni Dahong was politely rejected by the director several times, ridiculed and ridiculed by his peers, and was even advised to give up and change careers to seek a more practical path.
However, his love and dedication to the acting profession have never wavered. It is this tenacious and unyielding spirit that finally won the favor of a number of top directors such as Zhang Yimou and Lu Chuan, providing him with a broad stage to show his talent.
From a set of actors, rich people, nouveau riche, to all kinds of small roles, Ni Dahong has put all his heart and soul into every role. He is like a whetstone forging ahead, constantly improving himself and gradually maturing through countless experiences.
The directors were deeply moved by his dedication to his career, and they were impressed by his dedication and dedication in front of and behind the scenes.
[2] Controversy abounded, and doubts were endless
In 2023, with the rapid popularity of the TV series "Hurricane" on the Internet, the role of "Uncle Tai" played by Ni Dahong has also aroused heated attention and heated discussions among the audience.
However, at the same time, his acting skills have also attracted criticism and doubts from some audiences.
The majority of TV viewers have raised questions that the character of Uncle Tai, as a villain gangster giant, should be the kind of domineering, cunning and very deep appearance according to the script, but Uncle Tai, portrayed by Mr. Ni Dahong, seems a bit "pretended to be deep".
In the TV series, whenever he encounters an intractable problem, Uncle Tai always sits there expressionlessly, which really can't show his temperament as a big man, more like a stepping stone for the protagonist Gao Qiqiang to climb the peak of power.
A powerful gang boss who has been crisscrossing the Jinghai area for decades, faced with the gradual encroachment of his industry by the outsider Gao Qiqiang, did nothing? Doesn't he have any loyal followers around him, and doesn't have any effective counter-attack strategies? Some analysts bluntly said that the crew is likely to have deleted some of Uncle Tai's original counterattack scenes, which caused the characters to appear too thin.
Some people even boldly suggested that it would be better to invite an old actor like Li Baotian to play Uncle Tai, and he would definitely be able to interpret this role more richly and vividly.
In addition to many doubts about Ni Dahong's performance in the play, his personal family background has also caused extensive discussions. According to media reports, Ni Dahong's wife Ni Wei is actually the sister of the famous host Ni Ping.
And Ni Dahong, who was born in poverty back then, and the gap between Ni Wei and Ni Wei can be described as worlds apart, it is unbelievable how they came together, therefore, the outside world began to wonder whether Ni Dahong was able to achieve his current achievements with the help of this interpersonal relationship.
However, we can't ignore that Ni Dahong's love for acting has always been the same. As early as when he was a member of the National Theatre, he had already won two industry-recognized awards for his outstanding acting skills: the Plum Blossom Award and the Wenhua Award.
What's even more rare is that in the 20 years that the industry called "dragon career", Ni Dahong has never wavered in his enthusiasm and dedication to the acting career, although he has been questioned because of his "poor appearance and difficulty in finding a suitable role", he still persevered, failed repeatedly, and never gave up.
He is a deep believer in one of the moral concepts: the level of artistic virtue does not determine the size of the character, and even a trivial or even neglected supporting role should be fully devoted to the creation.
This is the key reason why Ni Dahong has successfully won the attention of many top directors such as Zhang Yimou and Lu Chuan, who have praised Ni Dahong as a jade that has been tempered thousands of times, and gradually exudes a dazzling light in countless temperings.
From Yan Song, who leaned towards the government and the opposition in "Daming Dynasty 1566", to the controversial Su Daqiang portrayed in "It's All Good", Ni Dahong responded to the doubts of the outside world one by one with practical actions, and won the love of the audience with his superb acting skills.
In Ni Dahong's personal opinion, whether or not he can successfully interpret a character is not directly related to his appearance. His enthusiasm and dedication to the acting career have become his greatest source of capital and strength.
As long as you keep going, one day you will usher in your own wonderful role.
Part 4: "It's All Good" became an important turning point in his acting career
In 2019, Ni Dahong, who is 59 years old, finally ushered in a role of his own in the TV series "It's All Good" - "Jing Dad" Su Daqiang. In order to portray this elderly male character with a stubborn personality and volatile emotions vividly, Ni Dahong can be said to have worked hard.
He repeatedly studied the script, digging deep into the inner world of the characters and the details of their behaviors, from Su Daqiang's hairstyle to his gestures, all of which were carefully planned and designed.
Ni Dahong designed a series of vivid and interesting small actions for Su Daqiang: sometimes distracted, speaking slowly and logically, and his body trembling slightly, not only to show his ruthless side, but also to make the audience feel his pathetic and pitiful.
After countless rehearsals and meticulous carving, Ni Dahong finally succeeded in creating the image of an elderly man who has gone through vicissitudes of life and flesh and blood in the play, making people love and hate, joy and worry about him.
The director of the crew, Zhang Li, once praised: "With you, I can rest assured" Ni Dahong finally proved his strength with practical actions, and performed this seemingly ordinary role vividly and excitingly.
His every look and smile revealed Su Daqiang's unique "refinement" temperament in the eyes of the audience, and it has become a popular emoji sought after by a new generation of netizens.
The masterpiece "It's All Good" has aroused heated discussions on the whole network, and all the artists behind it have received enthusiastic attention from netizens! Especially Ni Da Hong (Nie Da Hong), who won the Magnolia Actress Award for Best Actor, his name has been given an unprecedented light in the 59th year of his career.
There is no doubt that Ni Dahong became famous with this play, and his acting skills have been highly praised by the audience. This is undoubtedly the best affirmation of his years of dedication and an important milestone in his career for an actor who started from a small role and has gone through decades of acting.
Fifth, now he has returned to his true nature
The 62-year-old Ni Dahong has successfully got rid of the trough and doubts in the past and started a new chapter in his life. He finally regained the confidence to succeed in his career, and at the same time had a warm and harmonious family life.
During the filming period, Ni Dahong's wife Ni Wei always accompanied him and took care of housework for him. Even if they can't get together for a long time due to work, they will stay in touch through video and share the moments of each other's lives.
For Ni Dahong, what satisfies him the most is this "peace of mind" attitude to life.
In the days when there is no shooting task, Ni Dahong is also willing to return to the purest state of life. He would invite a few like-minded friends to sit around for a cup of tea and chat, talking about their dreams in life.
Sometimes, he transforms into a "fashionista", wearing a leopard-print T-shirt and Air Jordan sneakers, hip-hop rap, sipping fine wine, and enjoying the sun and music.
In Ni Dahong's eyes, the doubts and slanders he once encountered have long since disappeared. He only hopes to live the life he yearns for, and quietly savor the leisurely and calm life in his own unique way.
Being able to get back to his truest self is far more precious than catering to the hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry, which is where the real happiness lies.
All this beauty comes from his firm belief and unremitting pursuit of the acting career. It is this dedication that supported him through the trough of his 20-year career, and finally ushered in his own wonderful role and career peak.
Being able to live such a happy and comfortable life now is the best reward for his hard work over the years.
