To ask who the biggest winner of this year's May Day show is, Zhang Yimou, who has both word of mouth and box office, must have a name.
In fact, not only the old strategists, but also the acting school members of his new film "On the Cliff" have also attracted much attention.
Among them, Yu Hewei, who lived to the end of the film and is also good and evil, is particularly brilliant, and one person occupies several hot searches, and people send nicknames "Emperor of a Thousand Faces".
Speaking of which, seeing that Yu Hewei is so popular now, Sister Rice still feels a little strange:
After the storm of "luminous mahjong" between him and Wang Likun, didn't he almost become Wu Xiubo No. 2?
Why is it not only not mushy, but also better and better resources every year?
Behind his popularity, does it really all depend on acting skills?
Sister Rice doesn't think so.
After all, behind him, there was a powerful circle of contacts pushing forward.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23" >01, deeply involved in the "luminous mahjong" scandal</h1>
First of all, Sister Rice takes everyone back to the old "luminous mahjong" past.
At that time, Yu Hewei emerged in the entertainment industry with the role of Liu Bei in "New Three Kingdoms", and when he saw that his career was rising, he suddenly broke the scandal of "marital infidelity".
The heroine is Wang Likun, who entered the audience's sight after playing the fierce Nie Shen'er in "Beauty and The Heart", and then burst into flames because of the title of "Plain Face Goddess".
The ambiguity between the two has been traced as early as 2010 when they cooperated in the TV series "Green Blindness".
At that time, Wang Likun was still a newcomer who had just entered the entertainment industry for a few years, and Yu Hewei was already an old drama bone who had acted for more than ten years, so he often guided Wang Likun on the set.
In return, Wang Likun taught "old cadres" Yu Hewei to play Weibo by hand.
In the process, she also affectionately called Yu Hewei "Hehe".
The two not only chat online, but also secretly photograph each other offline, and the degree of intimacy is full.
It is worth mentioning that Yu Hewei was a person with a family at that time.
As early as 1998, he and his wife Song Linjing, who had been in love for many years, were licensed to marry, and the marriage between the two had always been regarded as a model story in the entertainment industry, and at this time, a "red face" with an ambiguous atmosphere suddenly appeared, and the viewers suddenly felt subtle.
Secondly, Yu Hewei is 71 years old, Wang Likun is 85 years old, the difference between the two is 14 years old, and I don't know what kind of relationship it is that can make a woman call a man who is older than herself so intimately in public.
However, the parties do not seem to be aware of these problems, and they not only do not avoid suspicion, but frequently interact on Weibo.
And no matter what Yu Hewei sent, Wang Likun would come to his Weibo to comment, and he would forward the reply every time.
In addition to intimate interaction, the two also boldly miss each other.
Wang Likun also used the mouth of the characters in the play to express concern for Hewei.
In 2011, during the filming of the TV series "Serial Set", Wang Likun was photographed with Yu Hewei Airport, and the two were intimate in words and deeds.
However, because Wang Likun and Yu Hewei were not too famous at that time, this news did not attract much attention.
And the two have maintained this unclear and unclear relationship in the back.
In early 2012, the two had sun-dried the same couple hat.
In the same year, Yu Hewei and Wang Likun successively registered their own companies, although the registration time was different, but the registered address was exactly the same.
The company names of the two are more subtle, called "Hehu Tiandi" and "Lixing Qiankun" respectively.
You taste, you taste.
In April 2013, the two were exposed to the media for photos of their close travels at the airport.
And the news description at the time was this.
This time, though, the news wasn't suppressed.
Because Wang Likun had previously become famous in "Star Diving Cube", netizens paid great attention to her. The news not only caused an uproar, but also her and Yu Hewei's earlier intimate interaction on Weibo was also greatly disturbed by netizens.
The same timeline, the same background, the same umbrella, the same posture, if you want to take it as a couple's avatar, it is not contrary to it.
This kind of "coincidence" naturally has a feeling of "hammering" the love affair of the two people.
However, Wang Likun explained that they were all taken out of context by paparazzi, and there were other staff members on the scene.
And she also said: "I am not familiar with Yu Hewei. ”
This is very strange, after all, the two also said at the previous new drama conference that they had a good relationship in private, and Yu Hewei also said that he had thought of falling in love with Wang Likun." ”
Not only is the caliber inconsistent, but some other materials are also faintly exposed.
But this time the scandal was still fooled by the two, especially when Wang Likun was also rumored to have broken up with Qiao Zhenyu, under the sympathy of netizens, this matter was not resolved.
In 2014, the two collaborated on a new drama "Domino of Love".
During the broadcast of the drama, they still interacted on Weibo as before, and some netizens also commented below: "Yu and Wei Wang Likun, these two are a perfect match." ”
When the two were on the show to promote the new drama, the title in the upper right corner of the show was also various bold and sensational.
Anyway, as a guest, you should know the theme of the program you want to record in advance, right?
It is worth mentioning that in this episode of the program, Wang Likun also said: "In life, don't have so many rules. "The question is about my own emotional life attitude.
In 2015, the secret "friendship" between the two was directly "seen on Wednesday" by Zhuo Wei.
At that time, Zhuo Wei said that the two of them "met late at night, spent a good night together, and were in the same room", and it was suspected that they had been "secretly in love for three years".
As soon as the news came out, there were melon-eating masses who found that it was not simple from the film and television dramas that the two had cooperated with for many years.
The two have worked together in four consecutive plays, and in four plays, they are both playing husband and wife. Such frequency and coincidence, it is really impossible not to think about it.
Some netizens also sent out a soul question: "Don't two people have other plays to pick up?" ”
After this matter was exposed, it caused a lot of controversy.
Later, Wang Likun sent a long response, saying: "I have a good relationship with Yu and Sister Wei, and I just went to his house to eat a late supper and play mahjong." And his relationship with Yu Hewei is a mentor and friend.
Yu Hewei sent a Weibo message with words in it, saying that "fake snow is fake snow, how to make it really can't be done", suspected of using snow to respond to rumors.
However, it is embarrassing that Yu Hewei's sister said in a later interview: "Xiao Wei does not play mahjong much. ”
This also created the source of "luminous mahjong".
After this incident, Wang Likun's image plummeted, and her drama contract was greatly reduced, even if there were works released later, it was silent.
Yu Hewei's reputation was once damaged, no different from Wu Xiubo after the overturn.
However, the strange thing is that Yu Hewei, who is also a party to the "luminous mahjong" scandal, is much less affected than Wang Likun.
In the same year, he not only won the Huading Award for Best Actor, but also received resources such as "Old Cannon", "I Am Not Pan Jinlian", "The Great Cause of The Founding of the People's Republic", and gradually embarked on the road of a steady and steady word-of-mouth actor.
A person familiar with the matter once revealed: "Yu Hewei's connections in the circle are not a little bit, and even Wang Likun's 'Suyan Goddess' hype has his credit." ”
It seems that this resource that does not fall but rises, in addition to relying on its own strength, is also inseparable from the connections behind him.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="160" > networking</h1>
If you want to talk about the beginning of yu Hewei's network of contacts, you have to mention his good friend, who is also his Bole - Gao Xixi.
In 1996, Yu Hewei was admitted to the undergraduate class of acting at the Shanghai Theater Academy.
In the four years of school, he became the backbone of the class at an older age, playing the leading role in almost all the big plays, and after graduation, the Nanjing Frontline Repertory Theatre called him by name.
This is an opportunity, but it makes Yu Hewei very painful, because from the first class of students to the dragon runner, the psychology is easily unbalanced.
"In the upper drama, it is a high-quality student and a high-quality student, but after being assigned to the frontline drama troupe, it has become a dragon runner." I left my hometown and went to college, is it just to run a dragon set here? ”
Fortunately, in the days of the repertory theatre, he got acquainted with Yao Yuan, Deng Hainan, and Jiang Xiaoqin.
At that time, the three of them just created a historical war drama "The Sky of History", so they recommended him to the director Gao Xixi to play the role of "Monument to All Ages".
"There are no film and television works, people don't know me, it's all about this face."
How much help did these three nobles help Hewei?
A month after the casting was fixed, the capital made a phone call to Yu Hewei and told him that the role was played by the actor he originally liked.
That is, he was pigeonted.
However, after telling Jiang Xiaoqin about this, Jiang immediately called the director and producer:
"Our three screenwriters jointly recommended, the script has been sent to people for a month, how can we say that we don't need it?" The seeds of the characters have sprouted in the heart! ”
Under the pressure of a famous screenwriter, soon, the assistant director called again: "Yu Hewei, Wangubei you continue to act, hang up." ”
This opportunity allowed him to successfully shape the incomparably classic monument, and at the same time formed a deep friendship with director Ghosh.
After that, Yu Hewei became Ghosh's "royal male protagonist".
Except for "Hitchhiking" the following year, every year after that, Yu Hewei would almost once cooperate with Gao Xixi.
From "Living with Love" to "The Age of True Feelings" to "Paper Drunken Gold Fan", he has participated in the play, and the cooperation in the play is also Hou Yong, Chen Hao, Luo Haiqiong, He Saifei and other powerful actors.
In those years, Yu Hewei was almost contracted by Gao Xixi, and in 2008 alone, he starred in three Gao Xixi dramas in one go: "Glorious Years" with a cameo appearance, and "Men's Bottom Line" and "Pretty Things" as the male protagonist.
In 2009, Gao Xixi invited him to star in Liu Bei in the new version of "Three Kingdoms", partnering Chen Jianbin, Ni Dahong, Yu Rongguang and others.
This is also the first time he has cooperated with Ni Dahong before "On the Cliff".
For Liu Bei, at first Yu Hewei refused, because this role is too classic, the audience has already had their own understanding, he is afraid that he will not play well, will disappoint everyone.
However, his friend Ghosh has been encouraging him to support him, which is why we later see the "emperor uncle".
Such a deep source directly led to the mutual involvement of Yu Hewei and Ghosh.
Gao Xixi actually has a lot of relationships with Huayi's stars, so the follow-up Yu Hewei also successfully hitched a ride with Huayi through Feng Xiaogang's new play "Old Cannon".
In fact, as early as before, Yu Hewei and the later Huayi boss lady Luo Haiqiong had two cooperations, when Luo Haiqiong and Huayi vice president Fei Qi married, a number of Huayi executives and artists were present to congratulate, Yu Hewei also attended the wedding to send blessings, which shows that the friendship is not shallow.
After opening up the Huayi line, Yu Hewei took the ship wu xiubo again.
At that time, Wu Xiubo was in unlimited limelight, leading the trend of "uncle" in the entertainment industry, while Yu Hewei was still up and down, and the red was a burst of paste.
At this time, he joined the TV series "Army Division Alliance of Sima Yi of the Great Army Division" starring Wu Xiubo, in which he played a generation of tyrants Cao Mengde.
In fact, Yu Hewei's friendship with Wu Xiubo also benefited from Yang Wenjun.
Who is Yang Wenjun? That's a big guy.
Journalist by birth, graduated from the Television Department of the Communication University of China, and won the Five One Project Award for his first work.
In 2011, Yang found Wu Xiubo, Yu Hewei and let the two co-star in "Youth Blindness".
This was probably the first time Yu and Wu had met.
Perhaps they were of the same age and similar personalities, and the two soon developed into friends.
Therefore, when Wu Xiubo asked him to play Cao Cao, even if Yu and Wei took other plays and wanted to refuse, Uncle Bo still persevered and sent 15 episodes of the script in a row, "Step by step hook me, this look, Cao Cao has space." ”
It was difficult to be affectionate, and finally Yu Hewei chose to star.
In the play, the two have a lot of opponent scenes, and the relationship on the set is also quite harmonious, "the two of us are basically touting each other", Wu Xiubo will say: "Oh, Hewei, you play us so much pressure." ”
Yu Hewei said: "You Sima Yi, I have watched it from the style to the appearance, and I am too stressed if I don't act like this." ”
Perhaps Wu Xiubo himself did not expect that Yu Hewei, who was originally a match, played the role of Cao Cao, who was both good and evil.
For this role, he won Magnolia Best Supporting Actor.
The popularity brought by the Three Kingdoms series to Yu Hewei has not weakened, and he has taken advantage of the situation to catch up and participate in the new movie "I Am Not Pan Jinlian" produced by Feng Xiaogang and Huayi.
Even if this film made Feng Xiaogang lose hundreds of millions of dollars because of the signing of a guaranteed distribution agreement with Yaolai Film and Television, the starring staff have made a lot of money in terms of the later awards of this drama.
With the award, Yu Hewei was immediately hand-picked to star in the anti-corruption criminal investigation drama "Circuit Prosecution Group", which is known as the second part of "The Name of the People".
This phenomenon-level explosive drama made his popularity once high, and he followed up with popular dramas such as "The Age of Awakening" and "Shangyang Fu" to receive widespread attention from the audience, ranking among the ranks of "handsome uncle" and "old drama bone".
At this point, do you think that Yu Hewei's opportunities are really earned by acting skills?
It would be naïve to think so.
Yu Shu's acting skills are not fake, but it is also true that there is capital and friend support behind him.
"Touring Inspection Team" and "Shangyang Fu" two plays, Yu Hewei's performance is very eye-catching.
In fact, these two plays are more or less related to Youku.
Coincidentally, Yu Hewei's good friend Yang Wenjun, that is, the big guy mentioned above, has a company called "Extraordinary Sound" under his name.
The relevant capital side of this company happens to have Youku.
Oh yes, in addition to being a director, Ghosh also has a layer of capitalist identity.
This big guy, 17 companies under his name,
Served as a shareholder in 9 companies.
It is reported that earlier, Gao Xixi also bought 4.2717 million shares of Lanza shares, with a shareholding ratio of 4.39%, becoming the second largest shareholder of Lanza shares (later surpassed).
In addition, in January 2018, Gao Xixi's Star Oriental Cultural Tourism Development Company also signed a contract with the Zhoukou government to announce 10 billion yuan to build the Fuxi Wonderland Cultural Tourism City project.
Subsequently, together with Zhengzhou Real Estate Group and Xinbao Fund, it invested 20 billion yuan to jointly develop the Huancuiyu Tourist Resort around Zhengzhou.
Being friends with such a capitalist, Yu Hewei can't eat meat and drink a mouthful of soup, which is enough to moisturize, right?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="23" > conclusion</h1>
Of course, in addition to a few big guy friends, Yu Hewei has been in the industry for many years and has also made many peers.
In 2018, he switched to variety shows, participated in the second season of "Longing for Life" and the fourth season of "Extreme Challenge" as a flying guest, and quickly formed a network of interests with Huang Lei, Huang Bo, Wang Xun and others.
In the same year, he participated in huang Bo's first film "A Good Drama" and then gradually caught up with Ning Hao's circle.
Although as early as 2013, Yu Hewei had contacted Ning Hao through Xu Zheng's relationship with "No Man's Land", but he really joined in the later "Assassination of a Novelist".
Not only did he enter Huang Bo's circle, but also the bridge paved early in the morning on Huayi's side, coupled with the help of his good brother Xu Zheng, Yu Hewei wanted good resources, which was simply a matter of minutes.
Later, when he starred in the crime-themed TV series "Drug Hunter", more than half of the stars in the entertainment industry were blown up to forward the call for him, and the neat rows of red V heads profoundly reflected the appeal he had accumulated over the years and the good popularity in the circle.
In this way, the reason why the "luminous mahjong" incident did not have a great impact on Hewei is well thought out.
After all, men are better off than women in the entertainment industry, and with strong network resources, it is easier to turn over with their works.
No matter what the scandals of the past, at least, in the position of actor, Yu Hewei is worthy of the audience.
From the view of the viewer, it is enough.
