Chen Zhaorong, a native of Yuli Town, Hualien County, Taiwan, because of an extremely coincidental opportunity, accidentally entered the film and television circle, the first work was "Young Nezha", and later starred in the Sanli eight-o'clock series "Taiwan Acheng" famous for treasure island Taiwan. Since his debut in 1992, Chen Zhaorong has been in the film and television circle for nineteen years, and in recent years, the film has been continuous, and the best films have been frequently released. Looking back on his nineteen years of acting career, Chen Zhaorong is full of emotions, and with these memories, let us walk into his struggling life together.
Before becoming an actor, Chen Zhaorong was just a college student, after graduation has been working in a restaurant, accidentally accompanied a friend to apply for a film actor position one day, the result of the people at a glance at him, not a few days after the phone called him to invite him to participate in the drama shooting, perhaps young and vigorous, the first question he asked during the interview was: "Is it money to make money in filming?" The interviewer did not expect the young man in front of him to be so direct, so he replied: "More than ten thousand." Chen Zhaorong felt that he was worth several months' salary, so he did not hesitate to choose a profession that would affect his life - an actor. "Youth Nezha" is Chen Zhaorong's first film and television work, and now in retrospect, it is "Taiwan Acheng" that gives Chen Zhaorong more gains. "Taiwan A Cheng" is a male inspirational drama, the story is based on real people and real events adapted, telling the story of how Ah Cheng, a small person, from a bitter child born to a big wife, lived in the home of a wealthy little mother after the death of his father, suffered bullying and treatment, studied hard all the way, and finally became one of the giants of Taiwan's enterprises. Chen Zhaorong played the protagonist Ah Cheng in the play. This story of being a little clever, affectionate and willing to work hard, and finally becoming a Taiwanese business magnate has touched a generation and inspired many people. Chen Zhaorong's growth background has many similarities with Ah Cheng. "My family was originally in the east of Taiwan, a noble family, but also because my father failed in business, and then there was nothing. Especially when I was a student, I had to do three or four jobs a year, some of which were serving dishes, some moving vegetables in the kitchen, some loading bicycles in the bicycle factory, and some installing motors. I'm thankful for this period of time." Chen Zhaorong said frankly, "Only when filming "Taiwan ACheng" did I really know what it was to shoot a scene, and before I only knew what it was called a performance, I later learned what a real performance was."
Since then, Chen Zhaorong has become the "boss" of Taiwan's eight o'clock slot at night, and almost as long as the TV is turned on, there must be Chen Zhaorong's figure in the eight o'clock slot. However, Chen Zhaorong, who already had great ambitions, did not stop here. Chen Zhaorong, who has gathered super popularity in Taiwan, decided to come to the mainland to work hard, starting from scratch. Although the recognition in Taiwan is extremely high, in the mainland, Chen Zhaorong's popularity is still slightly weaker. This is not what he cares about, he cares about the good development prospects of the mainland and more and better good scripts and good roles. "In Taiwan, now it is mainly an security drama, and the actors of idol dramas not only cannot make money, but also cannot shoot good scripts, that is, like shooting one episode after another. Before, when I was shooting for an hour, I could tell the director that the plot here was unreasonable, you could fix it, and it was okay at that time. But now it's different, if when it comes to 80 episodes, the director says that we are too late, first shoot and then say, every time it will be done, the quality will decline. So I started at the end of the year, and I felt very depressed, because I didn't have that feeling of acting for a long time. Chen Zhaorong's requirements for the script are very strict, "actors are not afraid of no drama, afraid of no good drama." When asked where Chen Zhaorong's goal is, Chen Zhaorong honestly replied, where there is a good book and a good role, where is my goal!
"Little Station" is a 30-episode TV series directed by Ma Yuhui and starring Chen Zhaorong and Yang Ruoxi. It is set against the background of important historical events in modern times, such as the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Naval Battle, Yuan Shikai's small station training, the Tianjin military and civilian resistance to the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the Patriotic War against Yuan Shikai's claim to the throne. This is the first experience of Chen Zhaorong's war films, and Liu Desheng, who he plays in the play, is a patriotic soldier who is both wise and courageous, heroic and righteous, a full hero, and at the same time has a different kind of children's love. However, in "Little Station Wind and Cloud", Chen Zhaorong's emotional drama is also very entangled, and the bridge section where lovers cannot eventually become dependents is also repeatedly staged. When Chen Zhaorong first saw the script of "Little Station Storm", he was immediately interested, his eyes lit up, and after reading it in one breath, he said four words: I was moved. A sentence that Chen Zhaorong often hangs on his lips is that if you want to impress people, you must first impress yourself. So he did not hesitate to take over the role of "Little Station Storm". I believe that this tough and courageous good boy will definitely bring the audience an absolutely different Liu Desheng.
In addition to being a good actor, Chen Zhaorong is also a successful businessman. In 2005, he set up a technology company to produce funny short videos on mobile phone networks to supply 3G telecoms. Now the Chen Zhaorong you see is a qualified and successful actor in front of the screen, and a successful businessman in life. Not only that, Chen Zhaorong has also been doing charity. When the "Heart to Heart Public Welfare" was first established, after Chen Zhaorong had a little success in his acting career, he donated a fixed amount of money every year, when this public welfare group was established, it was a coffin donation, at that time I heard that there was an old grandmother with a grandson, unfortunately the grandson died, and the grandmother did not even have money to buy a coffin for the grandson. Chen Zhaorong, who was filming, put down his work and tried his best to handle the child's affairs. "That's what I should do. Some old peasants had no relatives, it was so pitiful, at that time I donated ten coffins, and if someone died I donated the coffin to him. I hope that the last journey of the old people will be peaceful, and the living people will be steadfast in their hearts. ”
Chen Shaorong's acting momentum is getting better and better, and the business is also doing well. Some people asked, is it too tiring to take care of both sides? Chen Zhaorong still said honestly as always: "It is false not to be tired, but I believe in doing the best to do it, and I like these things, so I am not so tired." "So, we have to find ways to succeed, not excuses for failure." Life will encounter a lot of unhappiness, in fact, happiness is coming to each of us, just on the road, has not yet come to us.
