There are many male actors from the military in the show business circle, Li Youbin, Hou Yong, Lin Yongjian, Pu Cunxin... They are all strong acting schools, Wen can act on stage, martial arts can dance knives and guns, which can be called a clear stream of grandeur and righteousness in the showbiz circle.
And Wang Yisheng is a member of this team.
Speaking of the name Wang Yisheng, some viewers may feel strange, but if you talk about the many characters he has created, everyone will suddenly realize: "It was him!" ”
Song Jiazhai's second boss in "Braveheart", the blacksmith in the pole gang in "Fighting Dog Stick", Hong Baokui in "Dawn Decisive Battle", Zhang Baoguo in "In That Distant Place", Shen Laosan in "Joyful Secret Agent"...
I remember Wang Kai once said a sentence in an interview: "Remember me, I am a star; remember the role, I am an actor." Wang Yisheng is the latter who speaks by his works.
Recently, the anti-war drama "The Return of the Jedi of Hard Bones" starring Wang Yisheng is being broadcast.
Unlike the "Tu Dazhuang" from the Northeast Anti-Japanese Alliance fighters in the first "Hard Bones", "Hu Dazhuang" in the "Return of the Jedi", as an ordinary peasant in the labor camp, actually embarked on the road of resistance step by step, and the character image was more plump and three-dimensional.
Wang Yisheng played the "Hu Dazhuang" of the thick cuteness and pure nature, he did not have any ink in his stomach, often stupidly could not understand the words of his teammates, and could not distinguish which rank was greater, it can be said that the funny bearer in the steel thorn action team, a rough man like Zhang Fei and Black Li Kui.
But it is such a low-level farmer who has a "hard bone".
He never bowed to the invaders, and had a fearless spirit of daring to rush and fight, just like Wang Yisheng said, "hard bones" were the beliefs of thousands of peasants in that era who firmly believed that the War of Resistance would be victorious.
And the daughter-in-law "Chun Ni" is the softest place in the heart of "Hu Dazhuang", "Hu Dazhuang" decided to join the steel thorn team, at first because he wanted to find his missing daughter-in-law.
The courage to go forward when fighting the devil, the pistachios in the eyes of the teammates, the "rake ears" in front of the daughter-in-law, and the role of "Hu Dazhuang" have flesh and blood, which is very vivid.
The single role is as diverse as possible, and the soul of the soldier is injected into the performing arts, and the "hard bones" are not only the beliefs of "Hu Dazhuang" in the play, but also the faith of Wang Yisheng himself to be a good actor as a lifelong pursuit.
Wang Yisheng, who came from the military, has a strong sense of organizational discipline and collective honor, and he insists on arriving on the set ten minutes early every time he goes out to shoot a scene, as if for twenty years.
In the process of filming, he will do his best to shape his role well, but he will never steal scenes and Bo shots, and he is a low-key strength faction with very good artistic virtue.
Because of the needs of the role, Wang Yisheng often goes to the desert, grassland, snowy mountains and other difficult places to shoot, and it is common for the body to eat and be injured, but Wang Yisheng has never complained.
"I can only complain that I have a face of a working people, haha, most of the scenes are either playing devils or farming, there are many scenes of suffering and tiredness, and there are fewer scenes of going to the city." Moreover, I am a soldier, so I should not be afraid of suffering or tiredness! ”
He used a joke to downplay the suffering and tiredness he had suffered, took the initiative to carry the difficulties, swallowed the pain himself, and was a real grandfather who was like a fake bag.
Wang Yisheng in life is the same as the "Hu Dazhuang" in the play, although the appearance is a strong and strong tough guy, the heart is very soft, and the family will always be the soft underbelly of his body, riding the wind and waves outside to fight for the harbor after the career.
Whenever I talk about my wife and children Wang Yisheng, the corners of my mouth will rise, and I will take the initiative to share with me the parenting experience he summed up, as an actor, it is rare to balance career and family so well.
I didn't expect that in private, he was still an otaku who never went out to socialize, had nothing to practice calligraphy, fitness, watched film and television dramas to recharge, worked and at home, two points and one line, such a good man can book a dozen?
Because of the role, Wang Yisheng is always misunderstood by the audience as a fierce type, in fact, after contact, Wang Yisheng is a very easy-going person, and the laughter of "hahaha" will always run through the entire process of chatting with him.
He will also ridicule himself as a type of man, painful three consecutive shots or something, very contrasting cute.
Before there were netizens in the car brushing encountered Wang Yisheng, he also took the initiative to remind netizens to reverse the car to pay attention to safety, after being recognized, still chat with netizens, no star shelf at all, is cute himself.
Meticulous in work, simplifying life, looking down on fame and fortune, hiding behind the role, willing to become an old familiar face that remembers the role but does not remember the name in the eyes of the audience, Wang Yisheng is a real actor worthy of the respect of the audience!
