With the popularity of "Deep Sea Sword", the name "Gao Minrui" is known to more and more audiences. Three years ago, Gao Minrui was admitted to the acting department of the Shanghai Theater Academy with the third professional result in the college entrance examination, and in the same year, he participated in the filming of the fiery variety show "First Year College Season", in the program Gao Minrui has always performed well, whether it is drama, catwalk or film and television drama shooting, Gao Minrui is always better among the participants of the same age, the famous actor Tong Dawei once praised him in the program as "talented, good tempering will become a great instrument". It is worth mentioning that the role of Lin Jiandong, the male protagonist played by Gao Minrui in the drama "If Love", left a very unforgettable impression on the audience, and many netizens commented that "17-year-old Gao Minrui brought Lin Jiandong to life." Admittedly, his performance on the screen is highly praised, and Gao Minrui, who is still a sophomore, has now successfully "circled the fans" a vote of the audience.
As a promising newcomer actor, Gao Minrui was selected by the famous director Zhao Baogang at a glance to play the male protagonist Lu Yitao in "Deep Sea Sword". At present, the well-made military giant "Deep Sea Sword" has landed on Beijing Satellite TV, presenting the growth process of the young submariners after the "90s" in the Navy's submarine force, leading the audience to enter the military camp, dive into the seabed, understand the different life of the army in the new era, and start a thrilling journey of strengthening the army. Gao Minrui brought a sunny and enthusiastic submarine soldier Lu Yitao to the audience in the play, and also let everyone see a hard-working and persistent, growing Gao Minrui.
Trained by professional soldiers for filming "One Night White Head" Gao Minrui: "I have regarded myself as a front-line soldier"
"Deep Sea Sword" is the first TV series starring Gao Minrui, "inexperienced, acting skills are immature, height is too high", which in the eyes of 19-year-old Gao Minrui, are their own hard injuries, but when running for the role of "Deep Sea Sword", they were looked at by director Zhao Baogang, and "king" he played the role of the male protagonist Lu Yitao. "Many of the qualities of Gao Minrui, especially the eyes, are very suitable for the role, and they are all the types of great wisdom and foolishness, from this point of view, Gao Minrui is the best candidate to play the male protagonist Lu Yitao, and he is the hardest and hardest working of the actors in the crew." Director Zhao Baogang was very happy to see rare blood and potential in Gao Minrui. Gao Minrui also did not live up to the expectations of the director, even if his role was finished, he always stayed on the set alone to secretly "work overtime", "I just stand on the side to watch other people's performances, see what shining points they have that I can learn." Because the shooting task itself is very heavy, coupled with a long period of "overtime", when Gao Minrui got up one morning, he was surprised to find that he had "a white head" at a young age. "During that time, I often had a low-grade fever, a week or so were low-grade fever, I felt that the stomach was not very comfortable, one day I suddenly found that my hair was white, full of white hair, and then scared me to quickly dye it back to black!" 」
In addition, in order to be able to perform the life of submariners more realistically, Gao Minrui also participated in professional submarine training, for a total of half a month, the "Deep Sea Sword" crew arranged for the actors to receive professional training from the army and navy, standing in military posture, salute, shooting, marching in line... All kinds of training are not left behind, and finally the actors must be certified by professionals before they can shoot. But these are not difficult for Gao Minrui, for him who is 1 meter 9 tall, "vertigo training" is the biggest "minefield", this training requires the team members to stand on a special large iron wheel, by teammates to help turn the iron wheel for anti-vertigo training, but Gao Minrui's height has exceeded the diameter of the iron wheel, the entire head is completely exposed outside the iron wheel, so he is very easy to hit the ground in the process of rotating his head, Gao Minrui revealed that he had bumped his head four times during training, even so, he still smiled and said: "Filming, where is the filming not dangerous, although sometimes it will faint and vomit and bump your head, but other people can do it, why can't I?" During the training and filming process, the official submarine crew followed the crew throughout the process and assisted the actors to complete the strict training of the troops, which also made Gao Minrui more deeply appreciate the bittersweet and bittersweet life of the submariners. "Because we eat and practice with the real submariners, over time I really treat myself as a front-line soldier, as if we are a member of the army, and tomorrow we can kill the enemy with real swords and guns."
"Dry Duck" Gao Minrui challenged the role of the sea in the scene, acting skills are excellent, and he was named "Lu Yiyi"
Every boy has a military dream, and Gao Minrui is no exception. "Deep Sea Sword" is more like a dream journey for Gao Minrui, who has had a military dream since he was a child, "'Deep Sea Sword' made me completely pass the 'military addiction', of course, I have to do my best to treat this play." Zhao Baogang's use of a new lineup has become a highlight in "Deep Sea Sword", but because of this, Zhao Baogang needs to spend extra effort to "vip guide" every newcomer. Gao Minrui joked: "Director Zhao's guidance has really helped us a lot, but after all, Yan Shi is a high disciple, he is a complete "violent temper", and most of the actors in the crew have been 'roared' by him. However, with his talent and hard work, Gao Minrui was fortunate to become the only newcomer actor in the crew who had never been "roared" by director Zhao Baogang.
Although Gao Minrui has been recognized as the "all-powerful little superman" in the crew, he always has an insurmountable psychological gap, that is, the role of floating at sea. Gao Minrui confessed that he did not get wet much since he was a child, let alone swim, and the scene in which Lu Yitao survived on an isolated island in the play required him to swim on the sea for a long time, in order to ensure the realism of the scene, the crew's boat should be parked far away from the actors, so as not to let the camera wear the gang. This was an unprecedented challenge for Gao Minrui, who recalled: "At that time, they really threw me into the sea that could not see the land, surrounded by a completely foggy sea, without any protection, without rope dragging me, which was equivalent to me really surviving on a 'desert island'." Unfortunately, the wind and waves at sea that day were particularly large, and a large wave floated up, and the crew could not see Gao Minrui's head, and Gao Minrui, who was a "dry duck", felt an indescribable fear. "The waves were so big that day, I was so nervous that my whole body was cold, I was afraid of these things since I was a child, but when I really jumped into the sea, I really felt too uncomfortable, this feeling I will never forget in my life, it is too terrible!" 」
For Gao Minrui, who has no swimming foundation at all, filming alone on the sea surface with a depth of 40 meters can be said to be an extreme challenge, and generally in the process of filming film and television dramas, actors will use stand-ins to assist in shooting. However, in order to ensure the clarity of the face close-up and the realism of the picture, Gao Minrui insisted on personally fighting even if he was "afraid to the bone" and never found a stand-in. As early as a week before the start of the shooting of the sea scene, Gao Minrui wore a life jacket, hugged driftwood on the sea for a whole morning, and repeatedly practiced his own scenes, afraid of dragging the crew back. When asked why he did not find a substitute, Gao Minrui replied: "I have always told myself that as an actor, the bottom line requirement is dedication, there is no obstacle that cannot be passed, and there is a sacrifice to get." ”
"Obviously you can eat by the face but you have to fight for acting" Gao Minrui insisted on "going to battle" for seven days after appendicitis surgery and admitted that "the drama is bigger than the sky"
Since the hit "Deep Sea Sword" to the present, it has received a loyal audience, and some netizens praised: ""Deep Sea Sword" simply brought me directly into the military camp, and the military drama was also filmed so young and fashionable, too addictive." "But behind this contains too much sweat and tears from the actors. In the most tense moment of shooting, Gao Minrui suddenly had acute appendicitis, when asked about the cause of the disease, Gao Minrui frankly said: "I have had the pain of appendicitis since a long time ago, but there has been no disease, the shooting task workload is particularly large, every morning at 6:30 to leave, around 10 o'clock in the evening, so there is very little rest time, people in such working conditions, may not have enough immunity, coupled with strenuous exercise and action scene shooting, my appendicitis broke out." After the hospital examination, the doctor said that Gao Minrui's appendicitis was severely perforated and even life-threatening. However, 7 days after the emergency operation, Gao Minrui continued to participate in the shooting, "After all, I am the male number one, there are indeed many scenes, and there is no way to let everyone wait for me." No wonder the crew members call him "Almighty Little Superman", such persistence and perseverance is indeed not "covered".
Due to the lack of recovery time, the wound has not completely healed, and when some large movements are carried out, Gao Minrui's wound will often be injured twice, "Now that it has been such a long time, I did not expect that the wound was much larger, but I believe it will grow better slowly." In the face of such pain, Gao Minrui even quoted the team motto in the "First Year College Season" variety show to cheer himself up - "the drama is bigger than the sky". Many staff members in the crew ridiculed Gao Minrui: "Obviously you can eat by the face, but you have to fight for strength." In their view, Gao Minrui has become a veritable "little drama bone".
For Gao Minrui's performance, director Zhao Baogang is also very satisfied, although he is still very young in some aspects, but in the director's view, he has done his best to complete the task, and the rest is to let the market test and let the audience accept it. After filming, Gao Minrui sighed, "When acting, I really think of myself as a submariner Lu Yitao, I will think of problems from the perspective of a soldier, although we are young, have personalities, and from time to time there will be some small rebellion, but as soon as I put on the military uniform and stand in the team, I want to protect every inch of land under my feet, which is the blood of a young submariner." ”
