From the "scumbag" Su Mingcheng in "It's All Good", to the "spiritual guy" Yu Huanshui in "I Am Yu Huanshui", and then to the full-time cook in "Little Couple...... Guo Jingfei, who only became popular when he was over 40 years old, how did he win a place in the entertainment industry by playing a "little person"?
In the family ethics drama "Little Couple", the male protagonist "Zhou Quan" played by Guo Jingfei once again followed the "nest" route, but compared with the roles he played in the past, the role of Zhou Quan opened up a new track for family cooking.
Although the character is strange, when the audience sees the scene of Zhou Quan coming home and hugging his daughter-in-law and crying after being angry in the workplace, they still can't help but smile: Isn't this still a familiar nest? Sure enough, Guo Jingfei is still the same Guo Jingfei.
The name Guo Jingfei is actually his father's expectation of him. Guo Jingfei's father was a pilot, so he hoped that his son would also inherit his mantle, so he named his son "Jingfei". But what he didn't expect was that Guo Jingfei had no interest in being a pilot at all, but became interested in actors on TV, and specially applied for the Shanghai Theater Academy and was successfully admitted.
After graduation, Guo Jingfei entered the Shanghai Dramatic Art Center, and as soon as he entered, he played the leading role. He has acted in dramas such as "Endgame" and "Gadfly", and the box office of the "Love Trilogy" he performed is as high as 160 million, among which "Romeo and Zhu Yingtai" made Guo Jingfei win the Magnolia Drama Performing Arts Award. At that time, Guo Jingfei was a well-deserved "prince of drama", and it was difficult to find a ticket for the performance.
However, with the development of the times, dramas have gradually become more and more niche, and the income from performing dramas has become less and less. In desperation, Guo Jingfei chose to transform into the film and television industry.
The rich experience accumulated in drama performances has made Guo Jingfei feel like a fish in water in acting. In "It's All Good", the role of "Su Mingcheng" played by him can be called a scumbag representative, lazy, selfish, and intimidating, and his hideous appearance when he inflicted atrocities on the heroine Su Mingyu made the audience in front of the screen hate itchy. But at the same time, he can coax Su's mother and wife to make her happy with that three-inch incorruptible tongue, and it is even more difficult for people not to laugh when they pretend to be serious when dancing in the square.
The scene of square dancing was specially designed by Guo Jingfei in order to enrich the character of "Su Mingcheng". Guo Jingfei hopes to incorporate more of his own things into the performance, so he will design some additional lines and movements according to his own ideas. A similar situation also happened in "I Am Yu Huanshui", Guo Jingfei designed a five-body wrestling action for "Yu Huanshui". He believes that only after Yu Huanshui has experienced this hard fall can he logically lead to the "crazy" plot in the future.
Behind the characters who seem to have their own merits is Guo Jingfei's unique performance style that he has been pondering for decades. The so-called "nest" is just the most real side shown by ordinary little people in real life. Guo Jingfei has a very clear positioning of himself: he is a little person who makes a living by acting, and such a small person will naturally have emotional resonance when he plays all kinds of little people on the screen.
Although he has become popular in the film and television industry, Guo Jingfei has not forgotten his original intention. Guo Jingfei once said that as long as he has the opportunity, he will return to the stage of the drama. Probably only an actor who really loves acting would say such a thing.
