To say that this year's Spring Festival 2021 is the busiest actor, Xiao Yang is definitely among them. During the Spring Festival Xiao Yang for appeared in the theater line popular film "Tang Renjie Tangjie probe 3", word-of-mouth good film "people tide" and net film "hair wealth diary" three films, from starring to cameo, from offline to online, from word-of-mouth to popular, Xiao Yang very can ah.
Xiao Yang in "Chinatown Detective 3" and "Diary of a Rich Man" belongs to the cameo role, the two films in the camera is not much but both performances are noteworthy.
And Xiao Yang's performance in the lead role of the movie, "The Rising Tide," is even more praiseworthy.
The movie is not only Xiao Yang's second remake after "Manslaughter", but also his first co-starring role with Andy Lau.
In the movie, Xiao Yang plays the role of Chen Xiaomeng, a down-on-his-luck dragon-dragger, who exchanges identities with Andy Lau's killer Zhou Quan due to an accident, so the movie shows us two very different images of Xiao Yang.
At the beginning of the small dragon-set life is nothing, thinking of hanging himself, later accidentally obtained the identity of the killer, suddenly on the peak of life.
The two different identities are both very real and vivid in Xiao Yang's portrayal, especially the transformation process of the character.
The timid mediocrity at the beginning, the joy and a touch of timidity of living the quality life of a killer, and finally the change and growth in the process of swapping identities.
And when he was acting opposite Andy Lau, Xiao Yang was not timid, and the sensation of the drama between the two people made it a real pleasure to watch.
It can be said that the three Chinese New Year movies Xiao Yang's role is more or less, but all of them have left a deep impact on the audience, perfect brush the face of the Chinese New Year file.
According to the data, Xiao Yang starred in the works of the cumulative box office of 6.9 billion, ranked 22nd in the domestic actors, through the small apple song "net red" to the "acting" with Liu Tian Wang co-starring in the drama.
What makes Xiao Yang so "horizontal"?
One of the most important things is that he has a tendency to be a masochist, and he can switch between multiple identities at will.
By mentioning Xiao Yang, I believe that many people will pop up a lyrics, "you are my small ah little apple child." The song "Little Apple," sung by the group "Chopstick Brothers," which was founded by Xiao Yang and Wang Taili, has become a smash hit and has been translated into many languages and circulated overseas, making it a world-class hit.
If you think Xiao Yang is just a singer who sings square dance songs, you're underestimating him. Xiao Yang is a veritable multi-habitat development of all talents, painter, singer, netizen, actor, director, these identities are his label. As netizens have commented, he is a good director who can paint, sing and act. Xiao Yang's initial dream was to be a painter, so in high school he enrolled in the Central Academy of Fine Arts. In high school, he became obsessed with singing and formed his own band, and then he enrolled in the Beijing Film Academy, majoring in commercial directing. When Xiao Yang was in college, he took on various jobs to shoot commercials and became the most capable student in his class, and was called the "King of Jobs" by his classmates.
Once Xiao Yang and Wang Taili met, the two combined to become the "Chopstick Brothers" and made the excellent microfilm "Father" and "Old Boy", which also featured songs that were a hit. With "Old Boy's Dragon Crossing the River", Xiao Yang also won the Best Newcomer Director Award at the 17th Shanghai International Film Festival. After this, Xiao Yang changed his identity to become an actor. Xiao Yang was born as a netizen and became an overnight sensation like many other celebrities. However, Xiao Yang's "hard work" has torn away the shibboleths of many traffic stars. When they are still stuck in the cut a round of leeks on the run thinking, Xiao Yang has begun to enjoy the fun as an actor.
In the "Tang Tang" series, "Love Sage," "Manslaughter" and then "Human Tide," Xiao Yang has appeared in more and more movies, allowing us to see more of his side. When asked how he feels about his many identity changes, Xiao Yang has said, "My life is all about experimentation, and times are changing, so I don't want to set limits for myself."
Every time he has a little success in a field, Xiao Yang doesn't choose to stay in his comfort zone, but has the courage to break it. It is because of these constant attempts of courageous crossover, Xiao Yang has more life experience, so that we see a star artist who is not limited to one identity in a versatile. He even says he has a "masochistic tendency": he always wants to put himself in a dangerous situation, in an uncomfortable environment, to get out of his comfort zone, to inspire greater potential.
The comfort zone, the reason why the flow of stars have been repeatedly flirted with banter, a large part of it is to like to stay in their own comfort zone, concave a persona, pose a POSE want to make money, completely did not let the people see the enterprising side.
If they all had Xiao Yang's sobriety, traffic star would not be a derogatory term.
Second, try to be serious, and treat every identity with care.
For many people, no matter in life or work, to play an identity well is already excellent. But Xiao Yang plays multiple identities, and every time he changes his identity, he has to give up his past and start again. But Xiao Yang has been enjoying the process of identity change, and has been able to do a good job in each new identity, and the reason behind these achievements is the extra seriousness, hard work and dedication.
When he was a director, others felt that microfilm was not serious enough, it was just a playful and advertisement, but Xiao Yang used the same attitude towards microfilm as he did towards movies. In order to make the work the most professional, Xiao Yang put all his savings into the production, which led to the great success of "Old Boy". When he was a singer, even if it was the popular song "Little Apple", he took out a professional attitude and dedicated a piece of work that was the most popular among the people. When he was an actor, he spared no effort in trying to figure out the role.
Three, acting like who, acting skills can be called a person thousand faces.
While Xiao Yang has a lot of identities, the one that really shines is his identity as an actor. In the beginning, most of the roles Xiao Yang played were full of nonsensical hilarity, with strange looks and enchanting postures. In The Winner, it was "buck teeth, wigs, and grimy faces".
Kun Tai in "Chinatown Detective" is tawdry, lewd and greasy. For example, Song Yi in "Tangled Detective 2". It's a completely different story from the sketchy sheriff in "Tangled 1," a highly intelligent "pseudo-detective" who has a bad career and is down on his luck.
All these years, Xiao Yang has been constantly breaking through, taking every identity seriously, from the "Tang Dynasty" series, to "The Sage", to "Manslaughter", to "Raging Tide". From supporting roles to leading roles, from funny to deep, Xiao Yang has used his strength to interpret one vivid screen image after another. He has conquered the audience with his acting skills, he is not only a director, a singer, but also a good actor. Perhaps we can really look forward to the Chinese Song Kang-ho, that's him.
