Do you remember Monk Wei in "Bright Sword"?That loyal, brave, and fearless figure ended up dying tragically on the battlefield.

is about to usher in the end of this year, and all major platforms are busy making year-end summaries, and at the same time, the China Film Performing Arts Society has also held an annual event.
At this annual meeting, many senior artists gathered together, all of them are familiar faces, or old drama bones, or the mainstay of today's entertainment industry, or highly recognized powerful actors, which shows that the specifications of the conference are extraordinary.
When national first-class actors Li Youbin, He Zhengjun and Zhang Guangbei appeared, many people in the audience were deeply attracted by their charm.
These actors are the main actors of the 2005 hit anti-Japanese war drama "Bright Sword", playing the heroic and warlike old Li Yunlong, the political commissar Zhao Gang, Li Yunlong's nemesis Chu Yunfei, and the high-profile supporting role Wei Monk (Wei Dayong).
The TV series that came out in 2005 is still popular on major platforms, and countless editing accounts are also fueling the fire, which shows the popularity of this drama.
What is worth touching is that several leading actors reunited for the first time after 18 years, which is really emotional.
Many netizens also lamented that 18 years have passed since this drama
I always feel that the broadcast time is only a few years, but I don't want to go through 18 years, time is really rushed.
After these people met, they kept greeting each other, and they felt very cordial to each other after not seeing each other for many years, and the topic kept going.
Li Yunlong played by Li Youbin and Chu Yunfei played by Zhang Guangbei look a little thinner than before, but their faces have not changed, and they still look high-spirited.
The two are already in their 60s, but their manners are still elegant, and there is little change from back then.
Although the hair of political commissar He Zhengjun has not decreased, the gray of his temples shows that he is indeed old.
The state of the face ** is not as good as before, but it still exudes a strong spirit.
When he wasn't smiling, his serious expression and frowning look reminded him of his resolute image when he confronted Li Yunlong, which was extremely cute.
Many netizens called "Ye Qinghui" when they saw this.
The most significant change should be the youngest Monk Wei, the three older leading actors have not changed significantly, but the younger Monk Wei has changed the most.
His hairline receded and his forehead was unusually wide.
In addition, the eyes are obviously puffy, the corners of the eyes are slightly relaxed, wearing black-framed glasses, the eyes have lost their former brilliance, and the temperament of the whole person is completely different from Wei Dayong's honest appearance of daring to struggle and daring to charge, and there is more of a scholarly atmosphere.
Many netizens have questioned whether this is the handsome and upright Zhang Tong back then?
He's changed so much now that it's unrecognizable!What's going on here?
In 1981, Zhang Tong, who was born in Tianjin, has an introverted personality, has been more introverted since he was a child, and does not like to talk much.
He achieved excellent results in the college entrance examination and was successfully admitted to Nankai University majoring in computer science, which made his family very happy.
Due to the tight life since he was a child, he suddenly relaxed a lot after entering university, and he began to gradually get in touch with things that he had not paid attention to before. And it was at this time that he became obsessed with acting.
Zhang Tong has been smart since he was a child, which makes his parents worry a lot. However, after going to college, he was not interested enough in the "down-to-earth" in the eyes of his parents, which led to strong opposition from his parents.
Despite this, Zhang Tong was full of dedication to performance and decided to systematically study Xi this art.
Therefore, he went to Lyon to study for a postgraduate degree in acting at the École des Arts and Dramatés de Lyon, France, where he graduated with honors.
After returning from his studies, Zhang Tong immediately began to look for performance opportunities, eager for the opportunity to show his talent.
It wasn't until 2002 that he finally got the opportunity to play the role of a monkey in the TV series "Flowers Bloom and Sound" and officially stepped into the showbiz.
Three years later, he participated in the performance of the TV series "Bright Sword", and played on the same stage with Li Youbin, Zhang Guangbei, He Zhengjun and other senior actors.
The experience excites him and sharpens his acting skills on a deeper level.
As soon as "Bright Sword" was broadcast, it caused a sensation across the country, and the role played by director Wei Monk Zhang Tong was also very popular, so his drama appointments also increased.
In the face of the sudden crisis, Zhang Tong felt a little at a loss, and many crew members reached out to him one after another.
In the past, he was always very careful in his choice of roles and did not accept offers lightly. But this time, he chose his favorite role and joined the shooting.
However, the filming of this drama turned into a nightmare for his life.
As soon as he joined the group, the director began to find fault with him, constantly belittling his acting skills, and even saying that his acting skills could only pass the first-year level of film school.
In the crew, the director has been deliberately suppressing Zhang Tong, and after a long time, Zhang Tong also felt frustrated. However, the director interprets his frustration as a lack of self-confidence.
In short, he encountered criticism from the director everywhere, so his mood was very low for a while.
His confidence in acting was gone, and he even began to doubt his original choice, and finally fell into depression, and even had thoughts of suicide.
Luckily, his girlfriend was always there for him to support and comfort him, which gave him a bit of strength to cheer him up.
Zhang Tong was deeply moved by his girlfriend's care, and finally the two decided to enter the palace of marriage.
After getting married, Zhang Tong got the support of his girlfriend, so he took over a movie called "Desperate Defender".
It was this film that won him the Feitian Award in one fell swoop, successfully winning the first major award of his acting career. He became the only post-80s winner of the award.
When accepting the award, Zhang Tong choked up several times, not only because he won this award, but also because he strengthened his determination to choose the path of an actor.
He then devoted himself to filming, and starred in the role of Li Dazhao in the period drama "Awakening Age".
Many people may not recognize it, it turns out that Li Dazhao is played by Monk Wei!
This fully shows how successful Zhang Tong has been in character building.
Zhang Tong has experienced several ups and downs in his life, and these encounters have tormented his soul, so that he seems to age faster than his peers.
I hope that Zhang Tong's future career will flourish and he will no longer be entangled by villains!
