In 2010, CCTV broadcast the highly anticipated "Country Love 3".
The audience turned on the TV with anticipation, only to find that "Wang Xiaomeng" had been transformed.
Wang Xiaomeng: "What exactly did you go?".13 years have passed, is her life okay now?
Wang Yabin became famous for playing the simple and courageous "Wang Xiaomeng" in "Country Love".
However, in fact, on Wang Yabin's life path, Zhao Benshan is not his first discoverer.
In 1998, the Taimiao Temple in Beijing staged a grand opera "Turandot", directed by Zhang Yimou.
The scale is huge and the lineup is rich, which can be said to be unprecedented.
14-year-old Wang Yabin stood on the stage, and the crowd seemed a little crowded.
It was the first time she had stood on such a grand stage.
There was both excitement and nervousness in my heart.
Luckily, the show ended perfectly.
Hey, maybe some viewers will be curious about Wang Yabin's appearance here, right?
It is well known that Zhang Yimou has a special preference for dancers.
Most of the famous "Mou Girls" have solid dancing skills.
Wang Yabin also studied dance, coincidentally.
Wang Yabin was born in 1984 to an ordinary working-class family in Tianjin.
For the sake of their daughter's health, her parents also wanted to cultivate her literary and artistic literacy, because she was weak and sick since she was a child, so she enrolled in an amateur dance training class.
Unexpectedly, Wang Yabin showed extraordinary talent for dance.
Even the teacher who taught her thought that Wang Yabin had wasted his talent in this amateur dance class.
It is recommended that Wang Yabin's parents take the initiative to let their children apply for the high school attached to Beijing Dance Academy.
The parents are ordinary working-class people, and the tuition fees at the dance academy are not low.
They were a little unsure about whether their daughter would be admitted to school, so they asked nervously, "Is this kid going to work?"”
The teacher was full of confidence in Wang Yabin, saying: "Although I am not 100% sure, the probability of being able to pass the exam is at least 90%. ”
After Wang Yabin's parents got the teacher's approval, they resolutely decided to let their child study at the High School Attached to Beijing Dance Academy.
Sure enough, he lived up to their expectations and was successfully admitted to the High School Affiliated to Beijing Dance Academy.
Reach the age of nine in this year.
At a young age, she traveled alone to an unfamiliar city to learn dance.
Wang Yabin's mother was very worried, but due to the pressure of life, the couple had to stay in Tianjin to work.
To make matters worse, the couple has only one day off, which is Sunday, which can be used to spend time with their daughter.
On Sundays, the couple always got up early in the morning to catch the train.
Wang Yabin knows the hard work of his parents, so he never lets them worry.
It wasn't until a chance encounter that the mother saw her daughter's practice in the dance class, and after the whole class, her practice uniform was soaked, which made the mother feel distressed and burst into tears.
Wang Yabin said to her mother seriously, brushing away the tears on her face with her little hands.
Mom, I'm very interested in this matter, and I'm determined to keep going and do my best.
The reason why Wang Yabin was selected by Zhang Yimou and performed on stage was precisely because he worked so hard.
Wang Yabin first participated in "Turandot", and then starred in the dance drama "Meng Ming Changting", and was finally escorted to the Folk Dance Drama Department of Beijing Dance Academy.
There is no doubt that a sunny avenue in front of Wang Yabin has slowly unfolded.
In 2003, Wang Yabin appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, showing his dance work "Lion Dance in the East".
When Wang Yabin stood on the stage and performed with all her might, an audience paid special attention to her, and the appearance of this audience will add a colorful touch to her life.
Zhao Benshan is this person.
At that time, Zhao Benshan was preparing to shoot "Country Love", and he had already conceived the prototype of this drama in his heart, and Wang Yabin's overall image was very in line with the image of a young woman selling tofu in Zhao Benshan's mind.
The two exchanged *** with each other after the show
After the official launch of "Country Love", Zhao Benshan was greatly troubled by the casting of "Wang Xiaomeng". He interviewed many people, but they all felt that it was not suitable, and after repeated consideration, he finally felt that Wang Yabin was the most suitable for this role.
Zhao Benshan found Wang Yabin and asked her if she was interested in auditioning.
Wang Yabin participated in "Ambush on All Sides" directed by Zhang Yimou, at this time.
She played the role of Zhang Ziyi's "dance stand-in" in the movie.
The film was widely praised after its release, and Wang Yabin is also very proud of it.
She has a strong interest in the film and television industry, coupled with Zhao Benshan's warm invitation, Wang Yabin can't refuse.
After the performance, Zhao Benshan nodded with satisfaction and said:
Well, I think she looks the most like Wang Xiaomeng, who sells tofu. ”
Wang Xiaomeng's casting was finalized in this way.
After the broadcast of "Country Love", it received a lot of praise, and the audience praised Wang Yabin's performance, saying that the role of the rural girl she created was very real, especially her non-professional actor.
In the filming of the third season, the "Wang Xiaomeng" familiar to the audience has disappeared.
There are different opinions, for a while.
Especially the rumors about her falling out with Zhao Benshan have attracted widespread attention.
However, none of these speculations correspond to the facts.
After completing the filming of two "Country Love", Wang Yabin hoped to further improve his acting level, so he decided to apply for graduate studies at Beijing Film Academy.
Wang Yabin was very busy during the Northern Shadow, it was like a spinning top.
In addition to the daily classes, Wang Yabin also needs to arrange time for dance training and participate in the filming of the drama team in his free time.
There's no one way to get the best of both worlds.
As she neared graduation, she was faced with a difficult choice.
A Midsummer Night's Dream was created by the Beijing Film Academy, and as a genius in dance and performance, she naturally couldn't miss the opportunity to perform.
Another part of Country Love is also about to start filming.
Wang Yabin hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to choose dance.
The career she will devote her life to is incomparable to her status as an actress, and for her, acting is just a hobby.
"I think it's really great to have some impressive artistic presence on stage or on the TV screen," she said. ”
She feels that it is enough to leave a recognized image of "Wang Xiaomeng" in the minds of the audience.
Since you have nothing to do with the role of "Wang Xiaomeng", you don't have to feel sorry, just concentrate on doing your best.
In 2009, Wang Yabin starred in the dance "A Midsummer Night's Dream" at the Edinburgh Theatre Festival.
In 2010, she appeared on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala and presented a wonderful performance of the dance "Game".
Subsequently, she brought the music, painting and dance poem "Tianyu Paradise" to the Great Hall of the People to be staged.
Of course, Wang Yabin did not completely abandon acting.
She made a cameo appearance in "Hello!" in 2011The role of sister-in-law in Mr. Tree.
The work is getting busier and busier, and gradually, there is no longer a chance to work as a part-time actor.
Although his dance career is thriving, he has also won many awards.
However, Wang Yabin's fame is not as good as before.
Wang Yabin still focuses on his dance works and maintains a calm and calm attitude.
Eventually, she had an opportunity to get to know her again.
In 2014, Wang Yabin presented his dance work "Tsing Yi" on the stage of the National Centre for the Performing Arts.
As soon as this "Tsing Yi" was broadcast, it achieved extraordinary results, and some people even published a long article to affirm it.
This dance drama is amazing in terms of detail handling and ingenious use, and the more the audience looks back, the more deeply they can feel the unwillingness and helplessness of the characters.
For Wang Yabin, 2017 was an unforgettable year.
In 2016, she was invited to choreograph the English National Ballet's drama "She Said M-Dao".
A year later, the English National Ballet won the Olivier Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Performing Arts for Her M-Dao and A New Gilssay, edited by Wang Yabin.
Wang Yabin became the first Chinese to participate in the creation of the Olivier Award.
This award may not be known to many people, but in general, it is the "Oscar" of the dance world.
In June 2017, the modern dance drama "Tsing Yi" appeared on the stage of the Israel Opera.
This performance is of great significance and is one of the important projects to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Israel.
I heard that after the performance, a middle-aged woman over 40 years old found Wang Yabin in tears, and she said to Wang Yabin with tears on her face: "What you are performing is my life." ”
Through the success of "Tsing Yi", Wang Yabin realized her dream and completed the transformation from dancer to dancer.
She humbly stated in front of the camera:
As a lucky dancer, I chose dance, and at the same time dance chose me.
Perhaps for Wang Yabin, dance is no longer a means of livelihood, but an indispensable part of his life.
She decided to become a dancer, and dancing also took her to a higher level.
It is for this reason that Wang Yabin was able to re-emerge in just a few years after the disappearance of the halo of "Wang Xiaomeng".
Wang Yabin did not stop at the success of "Tsing Yi", but continued to move forward.
Wang Yabin and another dancer, Yin Xiaotian, collaborated in 2022 to rehearse the dance drama "Weishan Lake", which was presented in the CCTV program "Heroes in the Poster".
Wang Yabin's popularity soared again, which happened after the show aired.
In order to repay the audience's love, Wang Yabin said that he would redouble his efforts to create more excellent works.
Wang Yabin will meet the audience in May 2023, bringing his new work "Swan, a Different Story".
This time, it premiered in Switzerland.
Everyone applauded and admired the world's recognition of China's outstanding dancers.
Wang Yabin not only became more and more successful on the road of dance, but also filmed short ** about dance in his spare time.
At present, he has won the support of nearly 800,000 fans on the short ** platform.
The words of netizens are like this: Ivory Mountain may be without Wang Xiaomeng, but the dance world is inseparable from Wang Yabin.
The fact is that even if Wang Yabin is lost, the next "Wang Xiaomeng" will still emerge in Ivory Mountain.
If there is no Wang Yabin in the dance world, when will the next talent like him appear?
Wang Yabin shows too many symbols of success: talent, hard work, luck and ...... choice
It's hard to say which factor is more important.
Finding the right direction is the most important thing, because if you go in the wrong direction, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain.
