There is an actor who has obviously acted all his life, but the audience can't always call his name when they see him. I could only stare at the screen and say anxiously, "Isn't that who it is?" I know him! ”
He can be the Dragon Er who plays against Ge You in "Alive".
He may be Sima Yi, who is hidden in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.
He can also be the old dragon clock in "Daming Dynasty 1566", but he is also treacherous and rounded, and his thinking is quick.
If you're a little older, you've probably seen him in Joe's Compound. At that time, his name was Sun Maocai, and he was a downcast student.
No matter how bad, the "Su Daqiang" in "All Is Good" you must know. This "fine father" Su Daqiang can be said to have been fiercely fired at that time, making people love and hate.
In this era of appearance first, fresh meat and traffic first, the 60-year-old is stunned to kill a piece of the sky among a group of traffic stars. If the traffic era is very unfriendly to the powerful faction and the old drama bones, then Ni Dahong's popularity is the biggest irony of this traffic era.
01
In 1960, Ni Dahong was born in the northeast. At that time, I didn't know what his parents thought, so they gave him such a feminine name, and probably thought of making him "red" from then on.
Ni Dahong's father was a performance artist in the drama troupe, and her mother was also an actor in the drama troupe. Strictly speaking, Dahong was born into an artistic family, which may also be the key reason why he later embarked on an acting career.
At the age of 16, Dahong, like his peers, was sent to the countryside. The days of going to the countryside are difficult, and a copy of "The Self-Cultivation of actors" has become the only comfort to accompany him through difficult times.
On a sunny day, Dahong ran home happily: "Dad, I want to be an actor."
"Oh, your dad and I are actors. But son, you can consider doing something else, like a carpenter or something, isn't it bad..."
At that time, Ni Dahong couldn't understand why his father persuaded him to be a carpenter, and when he recalled it many years later, he understood that his father felt that "he looked a little anxious" and was not suitable for development in the show business circle.
"It doesn't matter, the TV is full of handsome men and beautiful women, there must be a clown..." In this way, how to persuade Ren's parents, Ni Dahong is not to hit the south wall and not to die.
That year, Ni Dahong was first preparing to take the exam for the play, but he didn't even take the exam, and the examiner directly stopped him outside the door.
Ni Dahong was not dead hearted, and successively enrolled in the examinations of the People's Liberation Army Academy of Arts and Chinese Opera, and the result was that each time he was rejected because of ugliness.
Until the last time, seeing that Dahong was not young, the family unanimously decided: this is the last exam, and if you can't pass the exam, you will go to work in the factory.
Who knows, this time the exam of the chinese drama actually passed! In this way, there has been one less excellent worker in the screw factory, and the show business circle has since had one more movie emperor.

It is said that the big instrument is late, and the future can be expected. But Ni Dahong is different, we look at the group photo of the classmates at that time, almost all the Chinese character faces. Only Ni Dahong was out of place and looked very old.
Ni Dahong is old, on the one hand, he looks old. At that time, Zhang Guangbei, who was in the same class, once complained: "Ni Dahong is specially playing the boss in our class."
After all, that "factory" is a 40-year-old face, and it is a pity not to play the boss.
On the other hand, Ni Dahong is indeed older than her classmates. After all, it took several years before and after the exam to be admitted, and it is not strange to be old.
It is also because of this that later the girls in the school think that Ni Dahong is "boiler room uncle", "security uncle" and "housekeeper uncle"...
It is also because of her looks that Ni Dahong has not been welcomed in school, basically playing some supporting roles, and many times even supporting roles have not been played. Only when there is a need to play the boss in which show, Ni Dahong has a chance to appear.
But even so, Ni Dahong still did not give up his persistence and love for acting.
It was not until 1984 that he was finally selected by director Xie Jin to participate in the filming of "Garland Under the Mountain", which gave him his first chance to show his face.
Although he casually showed his face, he let many viewers know him.
In 1993, "I Love My Home" was broadcast, and Ni Dahong became a fool.
In this play, although Ni Dahong did not have any role, he was stunned to play the fool, so that for a long time, when everyone saw Ni Dahong, they blurted out: "Isn't this the fool..."
Ni Dahong can not only play a fool, but also play a frightening villain.
In 1994, Zhang Yimou approached Ni Dahong and said that he was filming "Alive" and hoped that he would make a cameo appearance. Ni Dahong looked at it, "Yo, this is a big job!" Agreed without hesitation.
Especially in the part where he plays ge you, we feel that these two people are completely the same person, and that kind of clumsiness and anger are really not played by ordinary actors.
However, this drama is not the beginning of Ni Dahong's sinister and cunning professional households, and what really makes Ni Dahong a sinister and cunning professional household is his cooperation with Chen Jianbin in "Qiao Family Compound".
"Qiao Family Compound" is the first collaboration between Ni Dahong and Chen Jianbin, when the 46-year-old Ni Dahong played Sun Maocai in the play as both pathetic and pitiful.
Although it is only a supporting role, many viewers have a deep memory of this middle-aged man who is paralyzed throughout the whole process. Only at this time did Ni Dahong have signs of being red.

In 2006, with the completion of the script of "Daming Dynasty 1566" in the hands of Liu Heping, Ni Dahong finally waited for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play the key character "Yan Song" in the play.
At that time, Yan Song in the play was already 80 years old, so director Zhang Li's first requirement was that the actor must be older than 60 years old.
But who knows, Zhang Li's first request was broken by Ni Dahong. That year, the 47-year-old Ni Dahong interpreted the 80-year-old Yan Song into a fascinating way.
But it is a pity that "Daming Dynasty 1566" was unlucky, and it was replaced by a traffic Korean drama not long after its release.
But it doesn't matter, it's already a big thing late, don't care about that one or two plays, people with strength will shine everywhere. Later, Ni Dahong successively starred in "New Three Kingdoms", "Tiansheng Long Song", "Great Prospects", "Wolf Warrior", "Survival Day", "Golden Armor in the City" and "Little Woman Under the Gate of Zhengyang".
Although some people have complained that Ni Dahong has acted in so many movies and TV series, almost all of them use the same expression, and even complain that Ni Dahong is paralyzed.
But looking back, what does a facial paralysis look like, isn't this an artistic achievement?
We look at Ni Dahong's encyclopedia information, from the Golden Horse Award, golden eagle award nominations, to the magnolia award winners, how many "face paralysis" can achieve such achievements? I am afraid that he Ni Dahong is the first person in ancient and modern times.
However, looking back at Ni Dahong's life, from the beginning because of his appearance was rejected, and then later he was known to countless people. Those so-called life openings and hangings are nothing more than thick accumulation and thin hair.
As long as you keep moving forward, no matter how confused and hopeless the road ahead is, there will always be an inch of joy. Like Ni Dahong, as long as you are willing to persist, there will always be a day when the trickles become a stream and the armpits become qiu.
The worst result of life is nothing more than a late success like Ni Dahong.
