1. From the charm of the screen to the transformation of the acting career, 37-year-old Yang Mi bravely meets a new challenge!
Time flies, and it has been six spring and autumn seasons since the broadcast of the costume fantasy drama "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms", which brought Yang Mi the peak of his acting career. Now, the 37-year-old powerful actress is preparing with great anticipation to challenge a new role with great depth and complexity in the upcoming spy war masterpiece "Harbin 1944".
Based on the hit novel of the same name, this high-profile TV series tells a thrilling spy saga set in 1945 in the context of the Harbin Police Department's secret service section.
Yang Mi will play the role of section chief "Guan Xue" in the play, she not only has to undertake the important mission of revealing the truth about the spy, but also needs to dig deep into the complex twists and turns of the character's character and inner world.
Judging from the stills released by the official, Yang Mi cut off his long hair and put on a capable short hair style, with sharp and majestic eyes, which is in stark contrast to the gentle image of the past. If "Guan Xue" is finally confirmed to be a villain, it will undoubtedly pose a huge test to Yang Mi's acting skills.
As a genre film with extremely high requirements for actors, spy war dramas require actors to be able to accurately grasp the thousands of turns in the characters' hearts, and show the emotional changes of the characters through subtle details such as eyes, expressions, and body movements.
If not handled properly, it can compromise the integrity of the entire character.
From early girl dramas, costume romance dramas, to today's spy war dramas, Yang Mi has always been trying new ways to break through himself. For her, who has entered the age of 37, continuing to appear in youth idol dramas may seem too deliberate; And choosing to play the role of a mother in a family ethics drama may conflict with her current young image.
Therefore, spy war dramas, a traditional theme that has given many middle-aged actresses a broad space for development, may be the ideal stage for Yang Mi to start a new career journey.
Second, starting from a child star and transforming into a well-known "Guo Xiang", the young Yang Mi is showing his edge!
Yang Mi has been a child star loved by the audience since she was a child, as early as the age of 15, she began to make a name for herself in the fashion magazine "Ruili", and her innocent, lovely, and aura face attracted the attention of countless readers.
At the age of 19, Yang Mi ushered in an important turning point in his life - he successfully created the role of "Guo Xiang" in the classic martial arts drama "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Although Liu Yifei, who is in the same play, has long been famous for her role as "Guo Jing", Yang Mi's superb performance has also won the enthusiastic pursuit of the audience.
She successfully interpreted the enthusiastic, witty and humorous role of "Guo Xiang", showing a unique youthful demeanor on the screen, and became a well-known new generation star overnight.
In this work, this excellent actress showed extraordinary acting skills, won wide attention from the audience and friends, and laid a solid foundation for her future acting career!
3. In the hit drama "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III", Yang Mi challenged himself and created two completely different characters respectively, with exquisite and delicate performance skills, which won warm applause and high praise from the audience and judges!
Back in 2006, Yang Mi was only 23 years old at that time, but he was already able to take the lead in the well-known TV series "The Legend of Sword and Fairy III", and successfully played two roles with very different personalities.
One of the characters is "Yukimi" - a pure, flawless, kind and lovely girl, she is full of beautiful longing for all things in the world, and the whole person is like a white and flawless picture, pure and beautiful.
The other character is "Xi Yao" - a deep, introverted and thoughtful woman who has been betrayed and hurt, so she has a cold and withdrawn personality, and always rejects others.
The contrast between these two roles is huge, and it is undoubtedly a severe test for Yang Mi's acting skills. She must quickly switch between different emotional states in a short period of time, and portray the inner world of the two characters through subtle details such as eyes and movements.
It is gratifying that Yang Mi has won unanimous praise from the audience and industry experts with his excellent realistic acting skills.
At the same time, the scandal between her and Hu Ge, the protagonist of the play, has also attracted widespread attention; and the heroine Liu Shishi are even known as "Poetry Power CP", becoming the most high-profile screen couple of the year, satisfying the beautiful fantasies of many fans.
Fourth, during the trough of her life, Yang Mi bravely chose "betting" and successfully realized her gorgeous transformation from an actress to a female entrepreneur.
When his career was in full swing, Yang Mi chose to enter the marriage hall, but this wedding seemed too simple and simple. There was only one bridesmaid present at the scene, and the arrangement was simple and elegant, and even the wedding ring was a little low-key.
From these details, it is not difficult to find that this marriage seems destined to be unhappy for a long time.
If her husband, Hawick Lau, had been able to give her a stable family life, perhaps she would not have had to be so desperate to set up her own studio soon after marriage. However, it is worth affirming that this is by no means an impulsive decision, but Yang Mi has long been prepared and determined to transform from a simple actor to a business leader.
The setbacks of her marriage did not bring her down, but instead fueled her fighting spirit. With unwavering perseverance and otherworldly acting talent, Yang Mi finally fulfilled the promise he made when he "gambled" with the company - successfully recovered the equity and successfully realized the role transformation from an actress to a female entrepreneur.
This is undoubtedly a new starting line for Yang Mi's life! She began to carefully construct her own career plan, no longer just an actor who struggles alone, but to consider the whole picture and formulate a clear direction and strategy for the long-term development of the company.
From this perspective, the setbacks she has experienced can also be seen as the gestation period of her transformation.
Fifth, "Three Lives and Three Worlds" finally reversed and questioned, and achieved the status of the heroine at the peak!
After successfully completing the transformation of his career, in 2017, Yang Mi participated in the popular costume masterpiece "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" as a starring role. This TV series not only became another peak of her acting career, but more importantly, it successfully reversed the outside world's doubts about her acting skills.
For a long time, controversies and negative evaluations about Yang Mi's acting skills have emerged on the Internet. However, the role of the heroine "Bai Qian" she created in this drama completely subverted people's cognition.
"Bai Qian" in the play is a bold, brave and witty heroine, which is in stark contrast to the gentle and graceful image that Yang Mi showed on the screen before.
Her superb acting skills make the characters vivid on the screen, and the audience is deeply attracted by the unique personality charm of the character "Bai Qian". At the same time, the popularity of this drama has also soared Yang Mi's popularity, and she, like the heroine in the play, has undoubtedly become a representative of the first-line heroine.
From this point of view, "Three Lives and Three Worlds" is not only a new peak of Yang Mi's career, but also a prologue to a new stage of her life. After completing her career transformation, she officially embarked on the role of the heroine.
