Zheng Hao is an actor I like very much, his performance is real, very grounded, especially the starring in some of the rural theme works are very convincing and infectious, but it is such an excellent actor, 20 years after his debut, he is still not popular, it is indeed lamentable.
As early as the age of 18, he became a physical teacher at the Central Academy of Drama, and directed the musical "War and Man", he served as a choreographer, coach and lead dancer, it can be said that he carried this stage play alone, which shows his outstanding talent.
He was born on October 2, 1976 on the same birthday as me, so we are still relatively lucky. Later, he was admitted to the military arts majoring in drama. Just in his sophomore year, he was photographed by Zhang Yimou with a tough and simple image and participated in the movie "My Father and Mother". The heroine of the cooperation at that time was Zhang Ziyi, who was three years younger than herself. As a result, Zhang Ziyi won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Actress with this movie, and since then, she has gone all the way to the top and become the most successful girl after Gong Li.
Zheng Hao is relatively plain, Zheng Hao from the northeast Jilin has a thick personality, and was more honest at the time, and his family education from childhood allowed him to choose a more stable path, so he joined the Air Politics Cultural and Labor Corps and became a soldier in the next year.
After participating in "My Father and Mother", he returned to the ordinary creation, and in the same year he wrote and directed the drama "Through the Jungle", and won the "Lu Xun Literature Award" for this work, which also fully affirmed his achievements in performance.
After that, he starred in a number of rural theme works including "What to Plant", "Woman as an Official", etc., and directed and starred in the TV series "Into the Stone Lock Ditch", gradually creating a reputation in the show business circle. From more than 20 years of art, he has participated in more than 40 movies and TV series, and his multi-faceted talents have also been affirmed by his peers, but he has a low-key personality and does not like hype.
When he participated in the variety show "The Birth of an Actor", he partnered with the new Xiaohua Ouyang Nana, and the entry work was the "My Father and Mother" that year, and among the judges was the partner who participated in this movie with him that year, who also called him Brother at the time and consulted zhang Ziyi with him on acting. But at this time, the two people, whether in the entertainment industry or in the competition, have a world of difference.
After the performance, Zheng Hao was as stable and wonderful as ever, compared to Ouyang Nana, who was indeed not at the same level as him, but the judges' judgment showed a reversal of the wind. First of all, Teacher Song Dandan criticized Zheng Hao's voice for not being recognizable, and when I saw this, I was also speechless, and I felt that some eggs picked bones!
Then there was Zhang Ziyi, who believed that neither of them had reached the level they should have, had no soul to perform the role, failed to let the audience feel the charm of the role, and gave up the right to vote after talking a lot. I think Zheng Hao's heart must have been particularly complicated at that time, and even a little embarrassed, I think Zhang Ziyi might as well make him more comfortable by directly choosing Ouyang Nana.
In short, everyone criticized Zheng Hao, what changes the drama, what drama overlords all came up, and then not surprisingly, Ouyang Nana defeated Zheng Hao and successfully advanced, while Zheng Hao was eliminated. Looking at the lost Zheng Hao on the stage, the audience saw the heartache of a plain actor. In fact, people like Zheng Hao, who have been willing to be ordinary in the art world, must be proud in their hearts, if it is not to fight for more performance opportunities, I believe he will not come to participate in this show, but there is no way he also needs to live, need to make money.
