When the name Li Xuejian is mentioned, I believe many people's first reaction is the two classic works "Jiao Yulu" and "Desire".
, a veteran actor who was once known as the "national husband" and "god of acting", has conquered the hearts of countless audiences with his excellent acting skills.
However, in an episode of "Let's Talk", a young actor openly questioned Li Xuejian's salary, which caused an uproar.
In the face of the young man's cynicism, Li Xuejian did not panic at all, but told his magnificent life course with tears in his eyes.
What did this legendary veteran actor go through to achieve today's extraordinary achievements?
Let's explore the bits and pieces of Li Xuejian's acting career.
1. Ordinary background, actor's dream is difficult to come true
Li Xuejian was born in 1954, and his family was not well-off.
When he was 11 years old, he went to Guizhou with his father to participate in the local construction work.
At the age of 16, in order to support his family, he had to drop out of school and enter a factory as an ordinary worker.
Such an experience is undoubtedly a heavy blow to a teenager who loves art.
However, he did not give up his dream of acting.
At the age of 19, Li Xuejian joined the army and served as an engineer corps, and also starred in dramas, dances and other programs in the army's literary and artistic propaganda team.
With his outstanding performance, he attracted the attention of the leaders of the regiment and was recommended to participate in the national rehearsal of the Beijing Second Artillery Art Troupe.
However, just when Li Xuejian was full of hope and was about to join the group, he was told that the group was shrinking and could no longer recruit new members.
For Li Xuejian, who has strong self-esteem, this is undoubtedly worse.
But fortunately, an old chief gave him a chance to participate in the assessment of the Air Politics Art Troupe, and Li Xuejian successfully entered this unit with his excellent acting skills.
2. A blockbuster and a classic
After Li Xuejian entered the Kongzheng Art Troupe, he gradually gained recognition from people in the art circle with his excellent performance skills.
In 1990, he starred in the movie "Jiao Yulu", which made him a national star in one fell swoop.
In order to play this character, Li Xuejian can be said to have put in a lot of effort.
He made a special trip to Lankao County, where Jiao Yulu lived, for a field trip, and only ate cabbage soup and melon seeds for a month, losing more than 20 catties.
In the end, he vividly interpreted the selfless spirit of this servant of the people, which moved the audience.
At the same time, another work starring Li Xuejian, "Desire", also caused a sensation at the time.
The ratings of this TV series once far exceeded the most popular "Journey to the West" at the time, and it also triggered a nationwide popularity boom.
According to statistics, during the broadcast of the show, the social crime rate dropped by 30%.
Song Dacheng, portrayed by Li Xuejian, once became the "national husband", and his superb acting skills can be seen.
3. Sick and stubborn struggle
After Li Xuejian became popular with his excellent acting skills, he has always maintained a low-key and humble work attitude.
However, the good times did not last long, and in 2000, he was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer.
Faced with this sudden bad news, Li Xuejian fell into despair as never before.
But he didn't give up, but chose to hold on to the shooting task at hand before he could be treated with peace of mind.
In those days when life was worse than death, it was Li Xuejian's wife Yu Haidan who silently accompanied him and gave him the courage to persevere.
"In order to save my life, my wife would rather give her life." When talking about his wife's dedication, Li Xuejian, who has always been bad at expressing his feelings, couldn't help choking.
After arduous treatment, Li Xuejian finally defeated the disease, but he also left serious sequelae, and even needed to use instruments to speak.
Even though his physical condition was not as good as before, Li Xuejian still devoted himself to his work as always, which moved everyone present.
4. Artistic virtue is noble, low-key and indifferent
As a generation of acting masters, Li Xuejian is naturally admired by people inside and outside the industry.
But even so, he never considered himself a "big name".
On the contrary, he has always maintained an extremely low-key work style.
In the face of honor, he always chooses to be indifferent.
For example, at the 2018 Beijing International Film Festival awards ceremony, all the stars and staff stood up to salute him, but Li Xuejian was unmoved.
What's more worth mentioning is that in the 1999 movie "Born Out of the Sky", Li Xuejian played a chubby general, which made him feel very ashamed.
In this regard, he has always regretted it, believing that such a role is completely inconsistent with his positioning.
also made Li Xuejian regret an advertisement filmed in 1990.
During the filming of the TV series "The Wrong Car", a reporter questioned him, which made him never receive an advertisement again.
It can be said that Li Xue's artistic temperament exuded by fitness has made countless younger artists admire.
5. Pursue it all your life and never give up
Although Li Xuejian has experienced many ups and downs, he has never given up his acting career.
Even in the difficult times of illness, he continued to work and touched everyone with his professionalism and character.
Because of this, even though he is old, he is still a respected old actor in the film and television industry.
For him, the time spent in acting is nothing more than the days of eating a boxed lunch in the crew.
No matter how much rush and pain there is, it can't compare to the experience of being immersed in front of the camera.
Li Xuejian always believes that as long as you treat every role with a sincere heart, that is the most essential responsibility of an actor.
It is this original intention that has never been defeated by temptation or setback.
At the 2018 Beijing International Film Festival, all the stars and staff stood up to pay tribute to Li Xuejian.
For him, those halos and honors have never been his goal, he just wants to focus on his acting career and contribute to the industry in his own way.
It is with this tenacity and perseverance that Li Xuejian can still stand tall after the storm.
Today, he has become a monument to contemporary Chinese theater.
Whether inside or outside the circle, everyone is in awe of this old actor and has learned from him for his indelible artistic demeanor.
In this era of advocating traffic and short-term benefits, Li Xuejian is like a trickle, tirelessly sticking to his professional ethics and artistic pursuits.
His life is undoubtedly a moving legend of art, perseverance and human strength.
I believe that as long as we uphold Li Xuejian's ideals and beliefs, we will be able to inject more positive energy into this era and become an inexhaustible driving force for social progress.
