Now there is a popular term on the Internet called "frozen age goddess" and "frozen age male god", generally refers to the actual age of people who are much older than the age shown by the appearance, and sometimes this phenomenon is also called "reverse growth".
In the author's impression, there are two actors who can be called "frozen age" or even "reverse growth" in the film and television circle, one is a man, playing Ming Yan in "Dream of the Red Chamber" and Li Nan of the young Kangxi in "Kangxi Dynasty", his appearance when he starred in the 87th version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and when he participated in "Kangxi Dynasty" in 2001, there was almost no change.
Another girl is the protagonist of this article, playing the 86 version of "Journey to the West" Mingyue Daotong and the 87 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" Xue Baoqin's Wang Yang.
First, the lively and cute "strongest mouth cannon" Mingyue Daotong
Wang Yang was born in Chengdu in 1952 at the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital, not far from which there is a Qingyang Palace, so her parents named her Wang Yang.
Exactly thirty years later, the crew of "Journey to the West" found a century-old camphor tree in the Qingyang Palace and arranged it as a "ginseng fruit tree".
Wang Yang was admitted to the dance major of the art school at the age of 18, and after graduation, she worked as a dancer in the chengdu local song and dance theater, and in 1979, Wang Yang was admitted to the China Children's Art Theater, and it is said that she was the only child drama actor who successfully passed the exam in only half an hour that year, when she was 27 years old.
Wang Yang, who has just joined the China Children's Art Theater, immediately participated in several key plays of children's art, such as "Yue Yun" and "Ma Lanhua", which is enough to prove that although Wang Yang is born as a dancer, she will definitely act, and act quite well, otherwise she will not be favored by the "Journey to the West" crew.
There is an "unspoken rule" in the crew of "Journey to the West", that is, wherever there are Dao children in the play, they are all played by girls, and these girls must also be lively, cute and beautiful.
So Taishang Laojun's Daotong chose Xu Ye and Xu Qing sisters to play, but Xu Ye was too tall to match Xu Qing, so she went to play the little fairy next to Li Shan's mother, and Xu Qing and Zhang Limei from the China Children's Art Theater played the Daotong of Tushi Palace together.
Looking for lively, cute and beautiful actresses, the China Children's Art Theater is of course a big household, so in addition to Zhang Limei, the two Daotong Qingfeng Mingyue in the highlight play "Stealing Ginseng Fruit" also found two actresses of children's art, one is Cai Lin, and the other is Wang Yang.
According to the original "Journey to the West", although Qingfeng Mingyue looks like a teenage Daoist child, in fact, they are all more than a thousand years old, specifically the master brother Qingfeng is about 1,300 years old, and the master and brother Mingyue are about 1,200 years old.
According to the total plot of the previous article of "Journey to the West", Sun Wukong's age is not more than 1,200 years old even if the day in the sky is counted as a year, which means that the bright moon that looks like a child is older than Sun Wukong.
Speaking of this, I have to admire the casting vision of director Yang Jie, because Wang Yang is also too suitable for playing Mingyue, first of all, she has a high appearance, and then there is a lively energy, wearing Daotong clothes, and then combing two buns, which looks beautiful and cute.
Secondly, when Wang Yang starred in "Stealing Ginseng Fruit", it was in 1982, when she was thirty years old, and the six-year-old child was only 23 years old, and the original Tang monk, Mu Wang Yue, was only 27 years old, and they were all smaller than Wang Yang, which was also very much in line with what the original wrote, which was simply unattainable.
Finally, as mentioned above, Wang Yang was born near the Qingyang Palace, which means that the ginseng fruit tree is the "home field" of Wang Yang, which is also in line with the character setting of Mingyue Daotong.
I have to say that Wang Yang's starring in the Bright Moon Dao Boy is simply providence.
Wang Yang's Ming Yue Dao Tong did impress the audience, she was sweet and cute when she was happy, and she was shy when she ate ginseng fruit with Qingfeng.
When it came to arguing with the monkey, Wang Yang immediately changed his face, and the cold pair of horizontal eyebrows coupled with the continuous intimidation of the small mouth was called "the strongest mouth cannon" by netizens.
In the author's opinion, the bright moon at this time has become fierce and cute, and the fierce and cute is even more cute.
Among the many Dao children in "Journey to the West", perhaps the most famous is Mingyue, which is of course inseparable from Wang Yang's personal charm and performance strength.
Second, "Dream of the Red Chamber" Xue Baoqin encountered "Wanfu pointed"
The episode "Stealing Ginseng Fruit" was broadcast in 1983, and I believe that director Wang Fulin must have seen the wonderful performance of Wang Yang, who was also invited to join the crew of "Dream of the Red Chamber" and play the first beauty of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xue Baoqin.
Xue Baoqin in the original "Dream of the Red Chamber" is the most perfect woman in the book, she is young but well-informed, and it is said that she has also done business with Uzbekistan near the Caspian Sea.
In addition, Xue Baoqin, whether she looks or learns, may even be better than Xue Baochao and Lin Daiyu, otherwise she will not let Jia Baoyu want Jia Baoyu to marry her as soon as she sees her, so that Jia Mu can instantly forget the beauty of Xue Baochao and Lin Daiyu, how perfect it must be.
Because of this, xue Baoqin is called the first beauty of "Dream of the Red Chamber" by many readers, and some people think that she should replace Miao Yu in entering the Jinling Twelve Books.
Director Wang Fulin's choice of Wang Yang to play this role is also reasonable, first of all, Wang Yang looks like a teenage girl, at least from the perspective of "Journey to the West". Secondly, Wang Yang is more knowledgeable than the average girl, after all, the age and resume are placed there, she went from Chengdu to Beijing, and it is a drama and "Journey to the West", and people in their thirties are naturally richer in experience than those in their early twenties, which is also in line with the characteristics of Xue Baoqin.
However, theoretical things do not necessarily present themselves perfectly in reality.
Xue Baoqin, played by Wang Yang, has suffered bad reviews from some netizens, many people think that "Xue Baoqin" and "many girls" are the two most failed characters in the 87 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", relatively speaking, many girls can not play well and can endure, and it is more difficult to accept that the first beauty Xue Baoqin, who has pinned many people's fantasies, has failed.
The bad reviews given by these netizens to Wang Yang's version of Xue Baoqin mainly focused on several points such as fat, too white makeup, low appearance, and insufficient temperament.
In fact, this role is really difficult for Wang Yang, it is said that wang Yang was injured before starring in the 87 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", and when he was injured, he was not in a good enough state.
In addition, the makeup given to Wang Yang by the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew does not seem to be in place, perhaps in order to cover up the sick appearance on her face, the makeup artist threw too thick powder on her, resulting in her face looking too pale compared to other actors.
As for the appearance is not high temperament is not enough, the author thinks that some harsh, although Xue Baoqin, played by Wang Yang, is not a stunning first-glance beauty, but it is also very flavorful, there is a style, obviously feel different from Chao Dai and other people, this is not the characteristics of Xue Baoqin.
To tell the truth, said that Wang Yang played by Xue Baoqin in the netizens there is a mixed reputation slightly reluctant, because everyone's expectations for the role of Xue Baoqin is too high, so even if Wang Yang performs well, there are many netizens who are satisfied with the Xue Baoqin he plays, but this role is still often complained about.
In this regard, the fans of "Dream of the Red Chamber" are also very helpless, and even some people ridicule, you see people in "Journey to the West" mingyue Daotong is beautiful and cute, how to "Dream of the Red Chamber" is so much worse.
In any case, Wang Yang has opened her fame by starring in two famous TV series, and there are more invitations to her to star in film and television dramas, and some animation dubbing also looks for her.
According to the choice of some actors, Wang Yang can completely jump out of the children's art to enter the field of film and television dramas, but she has always stuck to the children's art stage, more than half a hundred years old in the children's art stage to play the role of the little queen and other roles are still no pressure, almost every year or two she will receive an acting award, which also inspired her to struggle in the cause of children's drama for decades, this calm and persistence is still very admirable.
Now Wang Yang is almost old, but she is still full of vitality, not old at all, in recent years she has become a busy person, because whether it is the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew reunion or the "Journey to the West" crew to meet again, it is inevitable to invite her, in the crowd she is still the smallest one.
