I think that at the beginning, after the release of "Burning Heart", everyone discussed who had the best acting skills.
This film directed by Cao Baoping contributed three film emperors, Deng Chao, Duan Yihong, Guo Tao, Qi Qi won the film emperor of the 18th Shanghai International Film Festival, and laid a three-yolk egg, which became a hot topic.
However, for the actor with the best acting skills in "Burning Heart of the Sun", the result is not any of the three film emperors, but the actor Wang Yanhui, who only appears in the form of an Easter egg at the end.
Everyone thought that this film was adapted from real people and real events, and the vague video at the end came from the real case handling materials of the public security system. But in fact, this is not a live-action adaptation, that segment is still performed by the actor. However, this kind of acting skills that are completely mixed with the real completely impressed everyone, Wang Yanhui was originally just a cameo, the scene was only 2 minutes, that is, sitting there to speak a line, did not expect the acting skills to explode, became famous in the first battle, and became the best actor in "Burning Heart of the Sun", and truly became a treasure actor. It is hidden so deeply that it can still be excavated, and there is no one left.
In fact, in "Burning Heart of the Sun", there is also a treasure actor, that is, Li Xiaochuan.
In "The Burning Heart of the Sun", Li Xiaochuan plays Zhuo Shengfa, a strange landlord with "eavesdropping". This is also an extremely annoying guy, definitely not a good person, but it is his presence that makes the whole case happen and lift the tight lid.
However, because of the three major film emperors, because of the existence of Wang Yanhui's explosion, Li Xiaochuan was buried.
At the end of 2020, "Send You a Little Red Flower" was released.
In this tear-jerking work, the performance of a group of actors is very praised. In addition to starring Yi Qianxi and Liu Haocun, the performances of other major supporting characters such as Xia Yu, Gao Yalin, Zhu Yuanyuan, Yue Yunpeng and others are also very good.
But none of this hides the existence of a smaller supporting role, Li Xiaochuan.
Li Xiaochuan, in "Send You a Little Red Flower", played the father of a small patient, he wore tattered, for the child, almost paid everything, in order to add a little nutrition to the child, he was reluctant to eat, but also lied to his daughter that he had eaten outside, eating beef rice.
The role of this role is very small, only three or four shots, but every time he appears on camera, it is extremely gripping. Under the unkempt hair, a sad face is telling his inner reluctance and sadness every minute. Li Xiaochuan entered this role wholeheartedly, not acting, but completely becoming a patient's father.
In the end, his daughter died. He took all his luggage with his net pocket, left the hospital, and sat on the garden wall on the side of the street. That sad expression, which does not require any lines, makes people want to cry when they see it.
In the play, Wei Yihang ordered a takeaway for him instead of his daughter, which is the beef rice he likes to eat. When the takeaway was delivered to his hand, he trembled and opened it, and then finally couldn't hold back, sat down on the side of the street, cracked his mouth, and cried out. Mixed with tears, he looked like rice, and none of the audience in the movie theater shed tears.
Such acting skills are really exploding, Li Xiaochuan, just by virtue of this time, it is enough to bloom.
This eating scene is also enough to be written into the textbook of the film school and become a model for future generations of actors to learn.
Li Xiaochuan can finally get ahead.
In fact, it's not just "Send You a Little Red Flower". In the recently released "Crackdown", Li Xiaochuan also has a good performance.
In "Crackdown", Li Xiaochuan plays Li Dagou, one of Wu Yanzu's gangsters.
Wearing a pair of glasses and a suit from time to time, he looks like a dog and is very elegant. But when he moved his hands, he did not soften his heart at all, and he played the role of a dog-headed military master like a fierce bandit.
The role of this character is also not large, and because he is a gangster, it is impossible to give too many personality changes. As an actor, the space for casting is very small, but Li Xiaochuan only relies on his good appearance to interpret the role's bandit spirit. It became the most recognizable one in the "Eagle Gang".
"Send You a Little Red Flower" and "Crackdown" have been brilliant continuously, but this is not the end, he also played a cook in "One Second", which was released at the end of the same year.
The scene in "One Second" is not too brilliant, and there is not much to say. But for a time, being able to haunt these scenes can also show that his popularity is really good. Under the pandemic, so many plays can be received. It shows that in the director's mind, his acting skills are recognized.
In fact, Li Xiaochuan's earliest remembered role is "Turning The Mountain" in 2011. It was almost a one-man show by actor Zhang Shuhao, in which in addition to Zhang Shuhao, the role that can be remembered is Li Xiaochuan.
Even, in "Turning the Mountain", the role played by Li Xiaochuan is also called Li Xiaochuan. To a large extent, this makes people think that Li Xiaochuan is a vegetarian, that is, a lover of outdoor sports.
But in fact, Li Xiaochuan is a serious student and graduated from the Yunnan Academy of Arts. Obviously an actor, but people do not feel like an actor, which in itself is the best proof of acting skills. Doesn't Wang Yanhui's performance in "Burning Heart" make people think that he is not acting?
After "Turning the Mountain", Li Xiaochuan also received a lot of bad films and bad dramas, but the light of a good actor will always shine. As mentioned above, in "Burning Heart of the Sun", he played an extremely annoying strange landlord, which can make people hate and has proved his acting skills.
In Han Yan's "Get Out, Tumor Jun", Li Xiaochuan also played the father of a patient, the same role is not much, but it can make an impression, which is very rare.
In last year's fire of "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", Zhu Ci, played by Li Xiaochuan, is also a small role, but Li Xiaochuan also interprets the truth that in addition to no small roles, only small actors.
In "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", Zhu Ci went online very late, and then there were not many scenes, and soon after the line was launched, it was tragically offline, causing the audience to collectively give up and lament that the tragic experience of the Zhu Ci family was too bad. Li Xiaochuan interprets this role very vividly, whether it is the gentle righteousness of facing the elderly who have fallen into distress, or the worried and blunt words when learning of the identity of the saint, the emotions are natural, and the performance is very layered, which makes a deep impression.
At that time, seeing the interaction between the Zhu Ci family and the emperor, many netizens said"Don't let this cute three people go offline, otherwise you will send blades to the screenwriter", but this family of three soon went offline, and the "Twelve Hours of Chang'an" of blood and fire is not a fairy tale.
What is a good actor, Li Xiaochuan fully interprets the quality of a good actor, that is, no matter how little the role is, it can also emit light and heat.
Give a little chance to be brilliant, such a good actor deserves more opportunities, but also worth the fire.
There are many such good actors in China, in addition to the above-mentioned Wang Yanhui, as well as Wang Qianyuan, Yu Haolei, Jiang Wu, Cheng Taishen, Liu Hua, Ni Dahong, Feng Yuanzheng, Wang Xuexi, etc., are all proper treasure actors, some have achieved fame, and some continue to mix in small films with few roles.
I really hope that they can all usher in their own spring.
