In the Chinese film and television industry, the name Wu Gang used to be thunderous. With the role of "Secretary Dakang" in "In the Name of the People", he has become an indisputable "old drama bone" in the hearts of the audience.
However, the broadcast of the hit drama "Hurricane" in 2024 has plunged the 60-year-old actor into an unprecedented whirlpool of public opinion.
The Internet was suddenly full of doubts about Wu Gang's "plastic surgery failure" and "regression in acting skills". The once highly respected old drama bone is now nicknamed "Aunt Wu with a swollen face".
Wu Gang's puffy face and performance that was criticized as an exaggeration in the play sparked dissatisfaction and speculation from the audience.
Wu Gang's acting career is a legendary story from obscurity to radiance. In 1988, the young Wu Gang first entered the Beijing People's Art Theater, but he was just an unknown supporting role.
In that era of material scarcity, the salary of drama actors was meager and life was hard. But Wu Gang's love for acting has never waned, and he earnestly recites the protagonist's lines every day, even if he is only an inconspicuous supporting role.
This dedication and hard work laid a solid foundation for his future success.
As time went on, Wu Gang's performance skills became more and more sophisticated, and he gradually won more performance opportunities. Together with Feng Yuanzheng, Ding Zhicheng, Wang Gang and Gao Dongping, he is known as the "Five Tigers of Renyi" and has become the backbone of the theater.
The training during this period allowed Wu Gang to accumulate rich experience in stage performance.
However, the real turning point came in 2009. The 47-year-old Wu Gang won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor with the role of Wang Jinxi in the movie "Iron Man".
This award is not only an affirmation of his years of hard work, but also an important milestone in his acting career. Since then, Wu Gang's career has been in full swing, and various film and television invitations have come one after another.
In the years that followed, Wu Gang successively created a number of deeply rooted characters. In "Celebrating More Than Years", he played "Chen Pingping" who is scheming and wise; In "In the Name of the People", the "Secretary Dakang" he created impressed the audience even more.
These roles not only consolidated his status as an "old drama bone", but also made "Secretary Dakang" his second name, which was widely loved by the audience.
Wu Gang's success is the perfect combination of talent and hard work. He treats every role extremely seriously and responsibly, and does his best no matter how many scenes he plays. This professionalism allows him to maintain his strong creativity even when he is over half a hundred years old, and constantly surprise the audience.
From a small supporting role in Beijing Renyi to a powerful actor in the film and television industry, Wu Gang's growth path confirms the old saying: "One minute on stage, ten years off the stage". His experience tells us that only after a long period of accumulation and honing can we seize the opportunity when it comes and create amazing works.
Today, Wu Gang has become an indispensable member of the Chinese film and television industry. His acting career is not only a microcosm of personal struggle, but also a microcosm of the development of China's film and television industry.
From the drama stage to the big screen, from the supporting role to the protagonist, Wu Gang has proved with his own strength: as long as you stick to your dreams and work hard, there will be a day when you will shine.
Behind Wu Gang's brilliant acting career, there is a woman who silently supports him - Yue Xiuqing. This love story that began in Beijing Renyi can be called a good story in the entertainment industry, showing the preciousness of sincere feelings in Vanity Fair.
The encounter between Yue Xiuqing and Wu Gang seems to be the arrangement of fate. When Wu Gang was still an unknown drama actor, Yue Xiuqing was already a dazzling star on the stage.
She has not only served as the heroine of dramas many times, but also frequently participated in the filming of popular TV series, and has a solid position in the film and television industry.
At the beginning of their marriage, the couple went through a period of "strong women and weak men". Yue Xiuqing's fame far surpasses Wu Gang, so much so that Wu Gang is often called "Yue Xiuqing's husband".
This situation may be a blow to many men, but the relationship between Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing has not been affected in the slightest. On the contrary, Yue Xiuqing always stood firmly behind Wu Gang and gave him unlimited support and encouragement.
In 1996, their child was born, and the arrival of this little life made Yue Xiuqing make a big decision. She resolutely chose to shift her focus to her family and put her thriving acting career on the back burner.
Whenever the crew invited her to play a role, she would always politely decline, and recommended Wu Gang to the other party, praising him as an excellent actor.
It is with the full support of his wife that Wu Gang can devote himself to his acting career without worries. Yue Xiuqing's dedication paved the way for Wu Gang's career to take off.
In 2009, when Wu Gang won the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor for "Iron Man", this honor not only belonged to Wu Gang, but also to Yue Xiuqing, who paid silently. On the podium, Wu Gang affectionately thanked his wife for her sacrifice and support.
At this time, Yue Xiuqing was sitting alone at home thousands of miles away, and tears blurred her eyes staring at the TV.
Yue Xiuqing's selfless dedication not only achieved Wu Gang's career, but also forged their indestructible love. In this vanity fair, their marriage is like a clear stream that makes people feel the power of sincere emotions.
This experience also made Wu Gang cherish his family more and deeply understand the dedication and sacrifice behind success.
Nowadays, when we mention Wu Gang, we can't fail to mention Yue Xiuqing. Her role has changed from being a star in front of the stage to a supporter behind the scenes, but her shine has not diminished in the slightest.
In "In the Name of the People" and "Hurricane", Yue Xiuqing returned to the screen and played Wu Gang's wife. This cooperation seems to be a true portrayal of their years of married life, and it is also the best interpretation of their mutual affection.
The story of Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing illustrates what a true partner is. In the ups and downs of their careers, in the ups and downs of life, they always walk hand in hand and support each other.
This love, which spans more than 30 years, is not only their personal wealth, but also sets a beautiful example for the entire entertainment industry.
When Wu Gang's acting career was in full swing, an unexpected turmoil quietly came, and the protagonist of this turmoil was his son Yue Yang. In the 2024 hit drama "Hurricane", Yue Yang played the role of Gao Xiaochen, but his performance caused widespread controversy and criticism.
As the son of Wu Gang and Yue Xiuqing, people naturally have high expectations for Yue Yang's acting skills. However, the reality greatly surprised the audience. Yue Yang's performance in the play is considered to be too contrived, with extremely exaggerated facial expressions and comical gaffes that contrast sharply with the performances of the other actors in the play.
This huge contrast immediately aroused questions and criticism from netizens. Someone bluntly pointed out that Yue Yang's acting skills were rather rough and far from the level of acting skills of his parents.
What's more, he questioned whether Yue Yang relied on his parents' relationship to get this role, rather than relying on his own strength.
Faced with overwhelming negative evaluations, Wu Gang, as a father, chose to stand up and defend his son. In an interview, Wu Gang mentioned that his son worked hard for this role, and even went to learn motorcycle driving skills and successfully obtained a motorcycle license.
However, this paternal defense inadvertently sparked more controversy. Some people think that this defense just proves that Yue Yang can indeed enter the group by relying on relationships.
Yueyang's experience has also sparked widespread discussion about the phenomenon of the "second generation of stars". In contrast, Wang Xiao (son of famous actor Wang Fuli) and Lin Jiachuan (son of well-known screenwriter Lin Heping), who are also from an acting family, have shown different attitudes and development paths.
They started from the grassroots level and gradually gained a firm foothold in the entertainment industry by relying on their own efforts, winning the recognition of the audience.
This turmoil not only brought great pressure to Yueyang, but also put Wu Gang in a dilemma. As a father, he wants to be able to protect and support his son; But as a public figure, he must face doubts and criticism from the audience.
This contradiction may be the common dilemma faced by many showbiz families.
Yue Yang's experience reminds us that in the star-studded entertainment industry, it is not enough to have an identity behind a famous family. What can really win the recognition of the audience is always excellent acting skills and professional attitude.
For Wu Gang and Yue Yang, how to find a balance between the father-son relationship and the professional relationship, and how to help Yue Yang truly grow into an excellent actor, may be the next challenge they need to face together.
Wu Gang's practice of bringing his wife and children to participate in "Hurricane" has triggered a wide discussion of the phenomenon of "related households" in the entertainment industry.
In fact, practices like Wu Gang are not uncommon in the entertainment industry. Many well-known actors have brought their families to participate in their productions, and some have even made a new generation of stars.
However, the key to this approach is whether the family members who are brought in are actually capable of doing so.
In "Hurricane", Yue Xiuqing played Wu Gang's wife, and with years of acting experience, her performance did not cause too much controversy. In contrast, his son Yueyang's performance was much greener, which caused dissatisfaction among the audience.
The practice of bringing family members into the group, on the one hand, may be seen as using relationships to seek resources and squeeze out opportunities for other actors; On the other hand, some people think that in a special environment such as the entertainment industry, it is normal for family members to help each other.
However, no matter what the considerations, it ultimately comes down to the quality of the work itself and the audience's acceptance.
Wu Gang's experience may provide us with a direction to think about: while helping family members, we should also objectively assess their abilities and give them appropriate guidance and training.
This is the only way to really help them grow in this industry instead of being a burden to them.
The discussion of this topic also reflects the audience's emphasis on the quality of performing arts and their expectations for a level playing field. In the future, how to balance family relationships and professional ethics, and how to help relatives without affecting the quality of works, will be a problem that every performing arts family needs to think about.
Despite the recent controversy over "Hurricane", Wu Gang's status and contribution to the Chinese entertainment industry are undeniable. From "Iron Man" to "In the Name of the People", from "Celebrating More Than Years" to "Hurricane", every character created by Wu Gang has left a deep impression on the audience.
His acting career has witnessed the development of China's film and television industry, and also interpreted the professional persistence of an excellent actor.
Wu Gang once said: "As an actor, I always firmly believe that only by performing every role with heart and doing a good job in a down-to-earth manner is the professional code and life creed we should have!" This sentence may be the secret of his enthusiasm for creation at the age of 60.
For Wu Gang, the identity of an actor has long gone beyond a simple profession and has become a part of his life.
In "Hurricane", although Wu Gang's performance has been questioned by some people, his dedication and professionalism to the role are still worthy of recognition. According to director Xu Jizhou, Wu Gang suffered from severe kidney stones during filming, but in order not to affect the filming schedule, he got up at four or five o'clock in the morning every day for massage and swelling, and insisted on completing all the shooting tasks.
This kind of professionalism is the professional ethics of an old actor.
Now we look forward to Wu Gang breaking through himself and bringing more wonderful works to the audience. At the same time, we also hope that he can take care of his health and go further on the road of pursuing art.
No matter what kind of difficulties and doubts he encounters, I believe that Wu Gang will continue to interpret the role of an actor in his own way.
Wu Gang's experience tells us that becoming a good actor requires not only talent, but also perseverance and respect for the role. In this era of rapid change, an old actor like Wu Gang who sticks to his original intention is undoubtedly a valuable asset for the entire film and television industry.
