In 2019, when Zhou Jie participated in a talk show, "Sharp Sister" Yi Lijing asked him: "Why are there fewer people looking for you to act?" ”
Zhou Jie smiled and replied, "It's not a cliff-like reduction, it's that others see that you always prevaricate, so they don't look for you, mainly because I'm too picky." ”
Yi Lijing asked him again: Is it the script or the creative environment?
Zhou Jie said bluntly: It is a script, sometimes when I read the script, I wonder how the script was written like this? What a waste of money.
Yi Lijing asked: You did not continue to act in "Young Bao Qingtian", is this also the reason?
Zhou Jie said with certainty: I insisted on what I should insist on, I think the script is not good enough, no one can act, they don't believe it. Change this and change that, they tried all the actors who thought they were very popular, and after trying, what was the result?
After reading this interview, netizens directly called Yi Lijing to meet an "opponent", and Zhou Jie really dared to say anything.
With the hot discussion of netizens on this interview, many people think of the drama "Young Bao Qingtian" that made Zhou Jie popular 21 years ago.
The main actors of this drama that year, in addition to Li Bingbing, who has counterattacked from a secondary school student to an international celebrity, the other four leading actors have "suddenly disappeared".
Next, let's sit on the time machine, travel through the past and the present, and see the current situation of these five leading actors.
I. Bao Zheng (Zhou Jie)
Before playing bao Zheng, the first male protagonist of "Young Bao Qingtian", Zhou Jie had already won super high national attention with the role of Erkang in "Huan Zhu Gege".
The director of "Young Bao Qingtian" first found Zhou Jie, not to let him play Bao Zheng, but to let him play Gongsun Ce.
At that time, the director's favorite Bao Zheng was Lu Yi, but Lu Yi was filming another drama, and the schedule could not be opened. The director also found the "white-faced little student" Wu Qilong, as soon as he heard that he wanted to paint his entire face like black charcoal, he resolutely refused.
The director saw that Bao Zheng was so "unpopular" and worried that he would hit a wall again here in Zhou Jie, so he gave him another option: to play Gongsun Ce.
At this time, after Zhou Jie read the script, he felt that Bao Zheng was more suitable for himself, and he had always wanted to play the role of such a heroic character. So, he called Qiong Yao, who was praising him, to hear her advice.
As soon as Qiong Yao heard that Zhou Jie wanted to play Bao Zheng, she immediately objected: "I will create a role like Erkang for you, do you know how difficult it is?" You're suddenly going to play a big blackface now, can you afford such consequences? ”
After Zhou Jie listened to Qiong Yao's words, he hesitated a little. He held the script in his hand, thought about it again, and finally decided to challenge the character of "Bao Black Carbon".
The director secretly rejoiced: it was really a place to step on the iron shoes, and it took no effort at all.
So he encouraged Zhou Jie: Although you boldly act, what you act like, the teenager Bao Zheng is what it is.
In the end, Zhou Jie completely "released himself" on the set. The bao zheng he presented, sometimes witty and humorous, sometimes deep and serious, won the unanimous praise of the audience.
This drama unexpectedly became the hit of the year, and even if it was replayed many years later, it still got the good results of the first rating.
When the director was preparing the second and third parts of "Young Bao Qingtian", he thought of asking Zhou Jie to continue to play Bao Zheng. Who knew that after he read the script, he directly pushed it off: this script is not working, and whoever plays Bao Zheng is the same.
Sure enough, After That, Lu Yi's version of Bao Zheng and Deng Chao's version of Bao Zheng did not set off much heat, and many viewers only remembered Zhou Jie's version of "Young Bao Qingtian".
Who would have thought that Zhou Jie, who had brushed the screen on the big screen, the road to showbiz was so short. Later, he was surrounded by various "doors", "tongue kiss doors", "blog doors", "car accident doors"... These "doors" eventually isolated him from show business.
Later, there was almost no news of Zhou Jie in the entertainment industry, and only Erkang's "memes" occasionally popped up to remind people that he was once an actor.
It wasn't until 2019, when Zhou Jie was a guest on a talk show, that people found that Zhou Jie has become an authentic farmer.
Zhou Jie contracted thousands of acres of fertile land in the northeast to specialize in growing organic rice. During the epidemic, he donated 20,000 kilograms of rice and medical supplies to medical staff in Wuhan.
When netizens shunteng touched the melon, they found that Zhou Jie had also built schools, donated educational materials, and funded children in poor areas.
We often say: there is no grandfather here, there is a place to keep the grandfather.
Although Zhou Jie has a good acting skill, although he is extremely persistent in his acting career, his personality is obviously not suitable for the show business.
Today, he lives in his own "peach blossom garden", which is not another peak of life?
2. Gongsun Ce (Ren Quan)
Ren Quan was admitted to the Shanghai Theater Academy in 1993, and when he was still a sophomore, he had already received an invitation from the film and television company to emerge on the screen, and he was the first group of people among his classmates to become popular.
Due to his early fame and The fact that Ren Quan himself was very good-looking, he, Liu Xiaohu and Lu Yi at that time were called "the three musketeers of the drama" by the media.
By 2000, Ren Quan ushered in the explosive year of his acting career. He suddenly became the protagonist of three major dramas, including "Young Bao Qingtian".
Gongsun Ce, played by Ren Quan, lived in the hearts of many viewers and became a white moonlight that could not be forgotten. He also became a "top student" in the audience's mouth.
In those two years, Ren Quan took advantage of the momentum all the way up and successively took over a large number of costume dramas. Perhaps his costume style is too good-looking, and the audience began to call him "Prince of Costume".
Ren Quan was not happy because of the popularity of these costume idol dramas, but he fell into a very depressed situation.
He once said on a show: I have to stick on the hood when I come up together in the morning, and I go to bed when I remove the hood at night. Every day in the countryside, I am even dazzled when I get to the city.
In 2003, Ren Quan wanted to shoot the transformation drama "24 Hours of Danger". He changed his handsome image, deliberately tanned his skin, and grew a beard.
After the broadcast of this drama, the audience response was average, but Ren Quan was still determined to transform. He said: "At least I let people know that Ren Quan can play many different roles. ”
Since 2006, Ren Quan has slowly faded out of the show business circle, he has put more energy into the business field, filming has become his "side business".
When Li Bingbing first pulled him into Huayi, he just had some spare money in his hand, so he took a stake in Huayi and became a shareholder of Huayi.
It is such an "unintentional act" that opens up new doors for him to make money and allows him to find his own interests.
He once publicly "pulled hatred": on the day nianhuayi went public, I really understood what investment is. Invested more than 2 million, the return of more than 30 million. Since then, I have rethought life and stopped thinking about filming.
Later, Ren Quan founded a media company and invested in beauty salons. In 2014, he pulled Zhang Ziyi and Huang Bo together to found the venture capital company Star VC.
In 2016, Ren Quan announced on his personal social platform that he had been thinking about this for a while, and I decided not to act.
At this point, there is one less actor in the show business circle, and there is one more "overbearing president" in the investment circle.
After retiring from the circle, Ren Quan will appear in the headlines of a certain financial sector every three to five minutes. In the "2017 Top 50 China Investors Ranking", Ren Quan's ranking is two places higher than Wang Sicong.
At the "Top Investor" award ceremony held in 2017, Ren Quan was awarded the title of "China Leap Investor". This is not only an honor, but also a recognition of Ren Quan's investment ability.
Most of us have been busy all our lives, and even we have stopped and seriously considered how we should live this life. In the end, because of various concerns, I can only say "it is too late".
But Ren Quan said:
"No matter what age, everything can be just getting started!"
III. Zhan Zhao (Shi Xiaolong)
Shi Xiaolong is a standard child star, who became popular overnight with the movie "Whirlwind Boy" in the early days, and then officially opened his "Kung Fu Kid" road.
Although he was young, his workload was enough to match today's adult actors. While other children were enjoying a pleasant childhood, he spent every day filming and writing homework.
Films such as the "Laughing Forest Kid" series and "The Dragon in Shaolin" made him popular from China to Southeast Asia.
When acting in "Young Bao Qingtian", Shi Xiaolong had just turned 12 years old. He is the only actor to participate in the trilogy of "Young Bao Qingtian", playing "Zhan Zhao" from small to large.
As a "kung fu child star", whether it is hanging Weiya or martial arts action, Shi Xiaolong is really hard.
Shi Xiaolong once publicly expressed his admiration for Hao Shaowen, who was in the same crew, saying: Hao Shaowen only needs to say a few words, and he is almost from the beginning to the end, and it is a common thing to hang on his body, and once he almost passed by the god of death.
Fortunately, "Kung Fu pays off", Shi Xiaolong's efforts, the audience are in the eyes, remembered in the heart. Today's post-80s and post-90s, they may not know Wang Yibo and Xiao Zhan, but they must know Shi Xiaolong.
Someone had previously uploaded a video of Shi Xiaolong training on the Internet, and he was frowning on his small face, pressing his legs and lower back with tears, and feeling the pain across the screen.
Perhaps it was this hard childhood that made Shi Xiaolong hurt his brain. At one point, he slowed down his filming plans, and at the age of 15, he decided to study in the United States.
After returning from studying abroad, he made an appearance once in the movie "Ip Man 2". Maybe it was too long to disappear, this time the face was revealed, and the audience response was not very enthusiastic.
In recent years, Shi Xiaolong has begun to work in the entertainment industry again, but he has become a martial arts actor in online dramas.
4. Ling Chuchu (Li Bingbing)
Before Li Bingbing took over the filming of "Young Bao Qingtian", although he had already filmed many works, he had not had any impressive roles.
In 2000, Li Bingbing signed a contract with Huayi, and since then, her acting career has developed rapidly like a rocket.
Ling Chuchu in "Young Bao Qingtian", lively and lovely, is the goddess in the hearts of countless boys. After becoming acquainted with Bao Zheng, their group solved many unsolved cases.
Li Bingbing's acting skills have finally been unanimously recognized by the audience, and after "Young Bao Qingtian", Li Bingbing's resources are so good that his works have swept through major award ceremonies.
Her film "The Ballad of Yun Shui", which she cooperated with the popular Xiaosheng Chen Kun, won the Hundred Flowers Award and the Huabiao Award, which directly raised her coffee position by N grades.
With this successful experience, Li Bingbing chose to make movies wholeheartedly and temporarily bid farewell to the television circle.
In 2010, Li Bingbing appeared naked for the first time in the movie "The Sound of the Wind". This acting skill of dedicating herself to the role finally allowed her to pocket the "Golden Horse Award Queen".
From 2000 to 2010, Li Bingbing spent 10 years to transform herself from an eighteen-line small actor into a "Golden Horse Film Queen" who attracted much attention.
After "The Sound of the Wind", Li Bingbing made another "Snowflake Secret Fan", although the word-of-mouth of this film was not ideal at the box office. But it made Li Bingbing and the "legendary Chinese woman" Deng Wendi become girlfriends, and at this time, she had stepped into the international film and television circle with one foot.
"Transformers 4" and "Resident Evil 5" have Li Bingbing's figure, and in 2019, she ushered in the first big heroine movie "Megalodon", which has a global box office of more than 1 billion.
Li Bingbing proved everything with the box office, and the success of "Megalodon" made her completely raise her eyebrows internationally.
Li Bingbing, who is now 48 years old, is still in good shape. Not long ago, she and her girlfriend Zhao Liying filmed a cover blockbuster for "Fashion COSMO", and the two of them rode a bicycle with a bright smile, full of youth and vitality, and a girlish feeling exploded.
No wonder even she herself said: I am the lotus of showbiz, out of the mud and not stained.
V. Pang Feiyan (Liu Yijun)
Liu Yijun graduated from the Central Academy of Drama, and "Young Bao Qingtian" is her screen debut. In the play, she played Pang Feiyan, the third young lady in the Pang Taishi Mansion, she has a good medical skill, and her contribution to Bao Zheng's case solving is indispensable.
The eccentric, kind and lovely Pang Feiyan has made Liu Yijun gain a large wave of good popularity. She and Gongsun Ce's screen CP, I don't know how many viewers warmly cried.
When "Young Bao Qingtian" was popular, Liu Yijun's popularity was even no less than that of the first heroine, Li Bingbing.
Liu Yijun's acting skills not only made the audience look comfortable, but also let those unique directors throw an olive branch to her. After that, she starred in "Double Cannon", "Big Han Tianzi" and "The Last Lawsuit".
Seeing that the future is very good, she chose to retreat at the peak of the rapids. Some people say that she went to Singapore to get married and have children and lived a low-key life.
In 2015, Liu Yijun was pushed on the hot search because of excessive plastic surgery. Looking at the photos at that time, and then looking back at the stills of "Young Bao Qingtian", it is really a judgment on the two people.
Once sweet and moving, she has become a cookie-cutter internet celebrity face, which is really regrettable. Today's Liu Yijun occasionally posts some daily life on personal social platforms and interacts with fans.
For the matter of retiring from the circle many years ago, she did not reveal a word, probably because she did not want to be haunted by the rumors of disturbance and wanted to live her own comfortable life.
Today, 21 years have passed since the broadcast of "Young Bao Qingtian".
Of the original five leading actors, in addition to Li Bingbing, who is still active in the film and television circle, the other four have basically "disappeared" from the big screen.
Although "Young Bao Qingtian" was later filmed several times, whenever I think back to this drama, what always comes to mind is the character of the first drama.
Now they are no longer what they were, but the good memories they brought us will always remain in our hearts.
No matter what kind of life they choose in the future, I only hope that everything they do can be as the theme song of the play sings: everything is worthy of the heart.
