1. The starting point of the ordinary and extraordinary road of youth
Bai Yu was born in a simple rural family in Yulin City, Shaanxi Province, although the family is well-off, but full of warm love. His father, Mr. Bai, rose from the bottom to become a successful entrepreneur with his hard work.
Although the family's financial situation is good, he hopes that his son can maintain a courteous, down-to-earth and steady character, and not lose himself by money and luxury life, so Mr. Bai is strict with Bai Yu and strictly prohibits him from contaminating bad habits.
Faced with a naughty and rebellious son, his parents decide to give him a chance to exercise. When the family moved to the bustling city of Xi'an, Bai Yu was also sent to a disciplined boarding school.
There, he could only go home during the summer vacation and the Spring Festival to reunite with his loved ones, and the enclosed living environment made the little wild horse gradually converge on its wild nature.
A year later, out of concern for the child's physical and mental health, the family returned to their hometown in Yulin again. In order to consume Bai Yu's excess energy, his parents signed him up for various interest classes, including martial arts, calligraphy, painting, and so on.
Eventually, the lawless naughty boy who used to run around gradually became well-behaved and sensible, became interested in learning these talents, and began to devote himself to them.
However, despite his academic progress, Bai Yu's academic performance remained in the lower middle for a long time. After many in-depth discussions with the teacher and his mother, they agreed that Bai Yu was more suitable for taking the path of art.
With the full support of his parents, Bai Yu began to prepare carefully for the art examination of the art academy, and was finally successfully admitted to the Central Academy of Drama.
2. Step into the enlightenment journey of Chinese opera
The moment he stepped into the Central Academy of Drama, Bai Yu began to gradually smooth out his uninhibited personality and devote himself to the study of professional acting courses. He maintains a regular schedule, attends every class on time every day, and after class, he will repeatedly test the basic movements in the dormitory to strictly hone his acting skills.
Thanks to this tenacious spirit of diligence and patience, Bai Yu finally won wide praise from his classmates and teachers, and was praised as a role model and class leader in the eyes of everyone.
However, while other students skipped classes in droves to go shopping, travel and relax, and even used the holidays to look around for temporary roles in small crews to earn extra income, Bai Yu always stuck to the campus alone.
Although he sometimes participates in the rehearsals of the school's drama club, he spends more time quietly observing the wonderful performances of his seniors backstage, humbly asking them for their performance experience and experience.
Just when Bai Yu first came to prominence, in the sophomore year of art exam training, the Central Academy of Drama ushered in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity - the crew of the well-known movie "Wolf Totem" came to campus, hoping to select a group of rookies from here to join the crew.
However, it was the weekend, and most of the students had returned to their hometowns, leaving Bai Yu alone in the dormitory.
As the class leader, Bai Yu did not hesitate to dial the phone numbers of the students, informing them one by one of the good news that the "Wolf Totem" crew came to the school for an interview and casting, and at the same time persuaded those students who did not want to come "seriously" not to miss this rare opportunity.
Director Chen Jie, who was in charge of casting, witnessed this scene and couldn't help but be shocked. As the squad leader, Bai Yu had the opportunity to monopolize this opportunity, because the smaller the number of interviews, the higher the probability of him being selected.
However, he chose to give up his personal interests and let everyone stand on the same starting point and compete fairly.
This kind of selfless dedication and noble quality deeply touched director Chen Jie. She was impressed by Bai Yu and deliberately left his contact information. Later, when he founded his own entertainment company, Chen Jie first found Bai Yu and became an important mentor on his life path.
After graduation, Bai Yu successfully signed a contract with Chen Jie's company, which made the students envious. In 2013, he starred in the TV series "Dick Silk Diary" for the first time and played the leading role in the play.
Although this work is only a small-scale online TV series and has few responses, for Bai Yu, he has gained another incomparably precious wealth - it is through the cooperation of this drama that he has formed an indissoluble bond with his dear girlfriend Liu Mengmeng!
