In the more than 20 years since he entered the industry, Peng Yuyan has become the antithesis of the anxiety of this century, in an era where there is no way to start with social, physical, gender, work, and miscellaneous information, he is like a placebo, and those who like him are happy to find a flash in the tiredness.

On and off the screen, he has become a kind of male aesthetic template, whether it is the way he treats work, life, and everyone around him, or just himself, from the cheerful and frank youth in his youth, to the casual self-consistency in middle age, Peng Yuyan is always impartial.

It was as if someone in the dark had borrowed him to tell the world an answer, a paraphrase of what "he" was.

Peng Yuyan once said that before becoming an actor, he was a person who was not so clear about the general direction. What will be done in the future, that kind of unattainable thing, can really be predicted in advance?Perhaps everyone is the same, and before they find out what they can do, life is always crowded with some visible goal: an exam, an afternoon basketball game, a final test in taekwondo and karate, or a piano teacher's repertoire to ......play in three weeks

It's like the hot-blooded comics I liked to read when I was a child, and then I thought that the protagonists didn't all know that they were going to become the protagonist of a certain story from the beginning, but they went on adventures in small sections, and then at a certain moment suddenly realized that the life story was about to unfold. Peng Yuyan said that although when he was a child, he also liked to fantasize about who he was in the virtual world, a hero who slayed dragons, or a knight who walked fast, but until the first few years of becoming an actor, he was not completely sure, and his life would be carried out on the premise of "entering other worlds".

At the beginning of my career, of course, because the subject matter may be really suitable, all the films that came to me were campus films or romance films. It is not so much that the works of the early years are performances, but rather that they are also a part of the parallel of the self, which is a supplement to life. Adolescence lasts a little longer than others, it is a happy time, but happiness can also be limited, you will have some hesitation, and even stereotype yourself, will you think that Peng Yuyan can play this role?

In fact, many actors will go through this stage, which is more like being pushed, and the actor itself is also a passive profession. “

Until then "Roll Over!".The director of "Ashin" came to open a small gap for this passivity, and also opened up many new ideas for Peng Yuyan. At the time, I just thought that I had to try it, but when I was halfway through the preparation for the movie, it seemed that many things suddenly became clear, it turned out that acting is such a thing, and it turned out that other people's lives are such a thing.

After I started to have the idea that I could try it myself, I gradually had more choices, and I didn't have too much hesitation, one after another, without "Roll Over!".Ashin", there will be no "Guild Wars", there will be "Breaking the Wind", "Operation Mekong", "Emergency Rescue", it seems that trying is no longer a problem that will stump me, but I like to be uncertain, and I will not easily limit myself to what type of actor. ”

At the same time, this change of consciousness also made him realize which road he would take in his future life, if the experiences before becoming an actor were a preseason game that he had not yet understood, then in the years since becoming an actor, Peng Yuyan has become more and more sure that he is already on the real life runway, what to do?

Be an actor. But don't presuppose what kind of actor you want to become, but treat each work as a sprint race, acting is an uncertain skill full of regrets, it is not all about competing with the outside and others, on the one hand, it is very much like the role-playing game that you played with your friends and sister at school and at home when you were a child, relying on imagination, but on the other hand, it requires you to understand a world that may not have belonged to you at any time, and it is more like a way for the actor himself to communicate with himself and the world.

There are so many unknown and interesting things in these worlds, and these interesting parts will make the performance forever full of unknowns. Peng Yuyan said that he is a 40-year-old actor at the moment, but age is just a marker, reminding him of what he has experienced and what he has not yet experienced. There are still many genres that have not been tried, and he is still willing to prepare for many new sprints in his life at any time.

If it is said that what the performance brought to Peng Yuyan only existed in the creation of fictional characters on the screen again and again. That's not really the answer. Over the years, Peng Yuyan will also find that performance has long been embedded in many details of his life.

For a long time, the outside world liked to praise him for some of his breakthrough attempts for movies, gymnastics, fighting, and extreme rescue. But these breakthroughs aren't just the key to the show.

It doesn't necessarily mean that if you master the skills of this role, you will definitely be able to play the role well, but if you don't even do a good job of the basic 'shape', then you must not be able to play well, because the audience won't believe it. ”

And this so-called "shape", Peng Yuyan thinks is naturally formed in the process of learning Xi, for example, if you want to play a cyclist, then you will definitely train your thighs to be thick, but if you want to play a mixed martial arts fighter, your muscle lines and cyclists are definitely different. The difference may not be obvious to the audience, but at least, the actor himself must convince himself first in the creative process, and this persuasion process will actually add points to the real performance, and you will have more confidence in the story you want to tell.

People think it's a need for the work, but for me, after taking the time to focus on something I don't understand at all, the 'need' has become a 'hobby'.

It is not so much about breaking through oneself to interpret the role in the film work, but also about gaining more life by completing the role. Many of the Xi and experiences in the play later became a hobby of Peng Yuyan's personal life, which continued to this day, and further opened Peng Yuyan's curiosity about life.

He will take the initiative to explore something interesting and curious, and does not seek to study to the point of mastery, but the process of exploration itself is full of pleasure. That enthusiasm for being in something new can bring a lot of joy to people. Peng Yuyan revealed that over the years, he has occasionally practiced calligraphy in private, perhaps this is another hobby that makes the outside world feel a little contrasting. When you write, you feel that the world is very quiet, you are very focused, and this is actually a kind of rest. Not long ago, he went to a pottery workshop, learned to make pottery with his master, and after sharing ** on social networks, some fans thought he was making a movie. This time, the filming location was in Switzerland, and Peng Yuyan also shared with us a little bit of his Swiss memory.

At that time, my family and friends and I first went to the Jungfrau Jungfracht, the well-known ski resort Zermatt, and then to the Cervino mountain on the border between Switzerland and Italy, and saw very good scenery along the way. ”

This kind of dedication and enthusiasm is really not limited to roles and performances, Peng Yuyan in real life will also do his best to devote himself once he finds interest. Peng Yuyan doesn't know if these experiences will feed back into the role, but that's not the purpose either. It is another breakthrough in life brought by performance, which not only made him aware of the richness of the world, but also naturally gave back this richness to himself.

It is a breakthrough in performance, but also a breakthrough in life, Peng Yuyan tells us that he has always been curious about life.

Time seems to be a constant thinking proposition for everyone. Peng Yuyan admitted that in fact, as an actor, he has never deliberately avoided time, and even thought about what his understanding and pursuit of acting would be if he was forty, fifty, or even sixty years old. The answer won't be clear, but at least one thing is certain, and that's to keep exploring.

For one's own exploration, it may reach a stage where the parts that can be entered and deepened are very limited. Peng Yuyan said that in fact, at the current stage, what he wants to know more is others.

Of course, this includes me, and I have some space of my own to explore, but I may spend more time observing and noticing other people, my family, friends, and people I work with at work, the characters that I am and are about to be exposed to. ”

Family is always the most reassuring existence for Peng Yuyan, and it is also the part he is most concerned about at this stage. In the past few years, Peng Yuyan has stayed with his family whenever he has time, unlike in the past, when he was filming, his family came to visit the class, or when he took time to meet at work. Sometimes it's a long trip, sometimes it's just a walk in the park near home, a weekend camping in the countryside, these arrangements are much more than in the past. I want to be more involved in each other's lives, I am growing, and my family is no exception, even if I am very familiar with and understand each other, Peng Yuyan will want to participate in this moment of their lives.

And many friends, in the past two years, have also increased the frequency of contact, and the friends who can enter the heart are equivalent to the family members he actively chooses for Peng Yuyan. Sometimes, in some special moments, he also thinks of individual friends, reminds of some common experiences, and feels that friends are the kind of people who will be there when something really happens to each other, and it also makes him feel satisfied to realize this.

In the upcoming movie "Sneaking" on December 29, Peng Yuyan cooperated with Andy Lau for the third time after "Cold War" and "The Great Wall", which was also the first time that the two had a real in-depth rivalry. He said: "Andy approached me and hoped that I could play this new generation of police officers in my own way, so I myself learned a lot from my predecessors in the process, which is a great honor." "During the filming of "Stealth", Peng Yuyan and the same group of actors Lin Jiadong chatted a lot, and they had many impromptu performances, which were suddenly decided in such chats. "For the time being, everyone felt that the other way was better, and we could directly overturn what we had imagined on the spot. This improvisational method is a new experience for Peng Yuyan, and this experience requires him to observe himself as well as the other party. In the play, he and Lin Jiadong's character have a lot of interaction in the plot line, Lin Jiadong will write the script, and will also tell Peng Yuyan what can be adjusted, Peng Yuyan responds to his own opinions, and sometimes gives Lin Jiadong's character suggestions.

It seems that each of us has played two roles at the same time, and I believe it will be good. ”

In the past few years, Peng Yuyan will also think about all aspects of this role more delicately than in the past.

The upcoming film "Dog Formation" is the first collaboration between Peng Yuyan and director Guan Hu, who said that this time the characters are somewhat marginalized in society, who feel lost in their lives, difficult to adapt to sudden changes, and need to find a new way to get along with the world.

When preparing for this role, Peng Yuyan would think from time to time that during the epidemic, everyone's life was stagnant, because of the uncertainty of the general environment, so everyone's vision for the future will also change, everyone doesn't know what tomorrow will be, and life goals may change accordingly. Time is moving, but we may lose a lot of things unconsciously, so how do you catch what you want to grasp, how to face the world in front of you.

At the time, I was thinking that this is actually my present, and it is a question that not only me, but also many people will think about, and it is also something that I was thinking about when I played these roles. This kind of character helps me open another window to see the world, not everyone is a champion in the ring, not everyone is a hero from heaven to earth. ”

There is me in others, and there are others in me. Peng Yuyan is forty years old, and after seeing himself, he wants to see others more.

And when we wanted him to summarize and score his past self, he smiled and refused. He raised his eyebrows and said that he would not rate anything now, especially personal and life, and that scoring means creating a standard, a rule, and this rule is an imaginative being. It seems that there must be a good part to be worthy of a high score. Good job, good income, good or not, but in fact, recalling his journey along the way, Peng Yuyan will feel that good should never be equal to ambition, if it is equated with it, the good part may not come so easily.

Okay, it seems to mean that you have to be in the unexpected world all the time, and I think at this stage I care more about myself, whether I am happy or not, whether I am healthy. If I need to care about someone, I care about the part of us that we can communicate, what we can communicate, whether they are healthy, if they are in trouble, if they need help, or just a little bit of care, I don't want to judge others, just like I don't want to judge myself, life is not determined by scores. ”

Life is not determined by scores, this is Peng Yuyan's answer, or perhaps, this is also a so-called male answer that many people want to find from Peng Yuyan over the years.
