1. Appearance is not the only criterion for success, and at some moments, it may become a constraint
The entertainment industry, a field with aesthetics at its core, often sees the beauty of appearance as a passport to success. Whether it is an agency or a director directing a movie, in the process of selecting actors, they will tend to hire newcomers who have both a sweet image and a heroic temperament.
Even the audience has become accustomed to seeing only the perfect faces of the stars who have undergone plastic surgery on the screen.
However, this kind of overly singular aesthetic ignores the most essential needs of the actor's profession - excellent acting skills and the ability to interpret the role realistically. Over-exaggeration of the "white rich beauty" style of appearance may limit the development of the actor and make him fall into a new kind of constraint.
In fact, among the many ordinary-looking actresses, many have presented unforgettable superb performances on the screen with a deep acting foundation and a keen insight into the inner world of the characters.
They have the courage to break through the limitations of appearance, dare to play ugly roles, and even boldly create "deviant" characters, and use professional acting skills to prove their strength, and finally won the love and praise of the majority of audiences, and achieved an extraordinary career.
To sum up, the entertainment industry is not "only appearances are food", compared to the "vase" image of over-chasing stars, we should cherish and support those actors who focus on inner cultivation and professionalism, because their unique understanding and excellent shaping of scripts and roles are the most precious wealth of this industry.
2. Qin Hailu, move forward bravely and climb to the pinnacle of the film industry
As one of the seven golden flowers of the 96-level Central Academy of Drama, Qin Hailu was not expected to be expected at first, thinking that she would not be able to show her strength in the entertainment industry. Although she was recognized as one of the most promising newcomers at the time, her simple appearance made her quickly fall into the predicament of having no scenes to shoot after a brief bloom on campus.
Qin Hailu used to be full of confusion and loss about her future. She vividly remembers one time when she went to interview for a trivial role, and before she could get closer, the staff spoke at her, accusing her of being too ugly, and then tore her resume to shreds and threw it in the trash.
As a student who is full of fighting spirit and has worked hard for many years, Qin Hailu was deeply tormented by such a serious trauma and heavy blow, and almost wanted to give up the dream she once had.
However, just when she was about to be ruthlessly abandoned by this stage of chasing her dreams, the god of fate finally threw a glimmer of hope on her, the famous director Chen Guo was looking for a suitable heroine for his first film "Little Daddy", after many in-depth understanding and investigation, he finally set his sights on Qin Hailu - this once questioned choice, although the role was set as a role that few people dared to challenge at the time, such as "stumbling woman", Chen Guo had a unique vision, I appreciated Qin Hailu's firm professional attitude.
After a short period of inner struggle, Qin Hailu resolutely decided to devote herself to this role. As expected, with her excellent professional acting skills, she successfully interpreted the image of this woman who has gone through a bumpy life.
With this role, she won many heavyweight Best Actress awards in one fell swoop, including the Golden Horse Award and the Academy Awards, from an obscure small role to a high-profile new generation of actors.
Since then, Qin Hailu has always adhered to professional professionalism in his career, and has successively participated in many classic film and television masterpieces such as "White Deer Plain" and "Red Sorghum", and has been able to perfectly present the inner and outer aspects of the characters every time, creating unforgettable screen images for the audience.

Part 3: Ren Suxi was reborn from the ashes, causing countless praises
Among the many mediocre-looking female stars, Ren Suxi is undoubtedly the most controversial. As an audience who has read countless films, when I saw her face for the first time, I really couldn't associate it with the word "beauty".
Ordinary facial features, and even a slightly sluggish and stiff expression, make it difficult for people to regard her as a professional actor, however, it is this questionable Ren Suxi, through her subsequent wonderful performance, completely subverted the stereotype brought by appearance, which amazed countless audiences.
The turning point of all this comes from her magical transformation in the drama "Donkey Gets Water".
In order to deeply portray the beautiful teacher character in the play who is full of charm and fascinates all beings, Ren Suxi resolutely embarked on a journey of self-shaping like "split personality". Every day, she carefully imitates the character's unique tone and thinking pattern, writes a diary intensively, and does her best to fully integrate her words and deeds into the seductive character image.
This "enchanted" character figuring process made Ren Suxi, who was standing on the stage, glow with a new brilliance as if he had been reborn. The audience can depict a charming and charming face just by seeing her smile; Seeing her eyes wandering, she is like a leisurely stroll to show her charm, which is irresistible.
The amorous woman in front of her is in stark contrast to Ren Suxi in daily life, and people can't help but marvel at her superb acting skills like "plastic surgery".
When the film version of "Donkey Gets Water" was officially launched, the director did not hesitate to continue Ren Suxi's outstanding performance. On the big screen, people witnessed a glamorous teacher with charming manners and a thousand emotions standing proudly, which was really a good couple, eye-catching, and aroused warm praise and appreciation from many audiences.
In the face of such praise, Ren Suxi did not stagnate because of this, but continued to challenge the role of small people in works such as "The Nameless", showing the all-round acting skills of "acting like anything", thus consolidating her position in the entertainment industry.

As a newcomer, she could have chosen a more secure sketch role, but she bravely challenged the "Harlequin" and won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress. This courage and professionalism indicate that she will write her own legendary chapter in the film industry in the future.
Under the aura of honor, Karen Mok was not satisfied, but later teamed up with Stephen Chow again in the movie "Night of the Soul", challenging herself and playing a humorous and witty female protagonist, showing her vitality and the real side close to life.
What's even more admirable is that her bold attempt in the work "God of Food" - successfully created a deeply rooted "ugly girl" image, but with her excellent acting skills, she has been highly recognized by the film critics, praised as "a beauty with blood and bones" There is no doubt that it is thanks to Karen Mok's professionalism that she has the courage to break through herself and actively accept challenges, so that she has created a new path in the highly competitive Hong Kong film industry, she has never restrained herself,
