**: Entertainment.
"Accident", if I had to choose to use two words to summarize the entertainment industry in 2023, I would choose it.
2023 is a year of recovery and change. The entertainment industry, which has experienced a cold winter, from the "surprise" at the beginning of the year to the end of the year, phenomenal works can make the lines in the play become popular stalks all over the Internet overnight, and can also instantly rewrite the existing impressions that have long been engraved into the audience's minds.
In the midsummer of July, "Fireworks in My World" started broadcasting as scheduled, and the gears of fate turned wildly.
Wei Daxun, who played Meng Yanchen in the play, became the only recognized "new Chinese-style president" on the whole network with the double buff blessing of chance and acting skills.
Sina Entertainment has teamed up with authoritative entertainment ** and senior practitioners in the industry to jointly promote the "amazing face" in 2023, and Wei Daxun, who has been in the industry for many years, has finally been seen by the audience again as an "actor".
The gears of fate
Actually, I'm an actor", is the monologue that Yin Tianqiu keeps repeating but no one pays for in "The King of Comedy". It is also the idea that becomes stronger and stronger in my mind when I look back at Wei Daxun's past.
After graduating from Chinese opera and entering the industry for many years, I still have to work hard to prove to the audience, "Hello, I am an actor." ”
It is still necessary to answer the embarrassing question, "What are your representative works?"”
Thankfully, this year, there is an unequivocal answer to this question.
Meng Yanchen" has become Wei Daxun's first "pension insurance" in the hearts of netizens.
We always say that "Suggest Chacha" is the biggest affirmation of actors' acting skills by netizens in this era, in fact"Pension insurance"The gold content is much higher than the former.
Because its evaluation dimension is no longer limited to whether the performance is true or not, it is separated from a single work with the character, and has become a "sentiment card" that can still hit the heart of a generation across time.
I think that for all actors, it is possible to have a "pension role.""These are all fortunate things that cannot be found in their careers.
In this "amazing face" interview, we also threw this question to Wei Daxun-What do the three words "Meng Yanchen" mean to you?
He said, "Meng Yanchen is more like a gift."
Indeed, looking back half a year later, Wei Daxun met Meng Yanchen, which was not only like a gift from fate to Wei Daxun, but also like a gift from Wei Daxun to the audience.
We can see such a role in 2023, the right time and place are indispensable.
After Meng Yanchen became popular, related discussions and behind-the-scenes stories emerged one after another. Netizens also learned from the casting staff of the crew that "Wei Daxun is not the first choice for the role of Meng Yanchen".
To be honest, before July, the vast majority of the audience, including myself, could not construct in their minds an image of a tragic superior with a face exactly the same as Wei Daxun, but shrewd.
Because whether it is his boyish and grinning image in his past works, or the cheerful and sunny side he shows in variety shows, he is far from the boss brother in the play who is forbearant and self-disciplined.
But he just understood that this child who was completely different from himself, grew up in a high-pressure and distorted environment, and was as perfect as a butterfly specimen, and used his own design and solid acting skills to give Meng Yanchen flesh and blood.
In Meng Yanchen's few scenes, through the details of Wei Daxun's performance, the audience saw Meng Yanchen's love for Xu Qin who was surging but unable to declare his love, and also saw his convincing shrewdness**, as well as the brokenness of the defense line when there was no one to talk to and no one to rely on.
Under the presentation of him and the director, many famous scenes were born, and Wei Daxun's acting skills received unprecedented attention.
The previous works were archaeological appreciation, "I didn't expect this kid to have acting skills".
In fact, the audience who really calms down to follow the drama can feel the integration of the characters and the plot during the viewing process, and feel that Wei Daxun can always seize the opportunity to support the characters in a limited space.
All About Dr. Tang" Ye Yiming, an anesthesiologist played by Wei Daxun, is gentle and tenacious, and the warmth and stability conveyed by his body hold up the bottom of professional dramas and emotional dramas.
In "Time and Space Big Player", the role of Zhang Ye, a small person counterattacking a big star, made many viewers sigh that their opinion of him changed, "It's really fun to watch him play a counterattack drama!."Since then, the male frequency counterattack Shuangwen has a face".
Wei Daxun has also acted a lot in workplace dramas that are recognized as difficult to touch, and has given different souls to similar roles, in "The Ideal Life of Love", he is a hard-mouthed and soft-hearted urban marryable man Duan Xuan, and in "Ordinary Glory", he is a rich second-generation Hao Shuai ...... who acts flamboyantly and his edges and corners are gradually smoothed out by the sinister workplace
At this time, the audience knew that what he said in the show, "There is more time for acting than on variety shows", is not a lie.
Regarding the sudden archaeological frenzy, Wei Daxun said, "Every time I look at my past works, I can find some shortcomings, so if I make up for these shortcomings every time I go next time, then I will always be moving forward, and this is a very benign process for me." ”
After July, Wei Daxun's new works also received widespread attention.
The eye drama of Mao Anying in "Volunteers: Heroes Attack" was highly praised, and "Mao Anying, who is like a pine and bamboo, has become a breezy and moon-like existence in the movie."
* Mission" Huang Zicheng's performance is to give new fans who came because of Meng Yanchen a reassuring agent, "I thought it was a character bonus before, but now it seems that my acting skills have really improved a lot."
has no baggage, steady and steady, and after taking stock, I found that among actors of the same age, Wei Daxun's acting path is unusually broad, and the rotation of the gears of fate, the beginning of a new cycle blurs the boundaries between the protagonist's supporting roles, and whoever can stand up for the character in the shortest time is the "elected protagonist".
Dig dig dig
Unlike many star artists in "Amazing Faces" who have just been recognized by the audience this year, Wei Daxun's popularity and national degree are not low.
It's just that most of this popular and out-of-the-circle works are ** variety shows.
It is also for this reason that on the day when Meng Yanchen broke out of the circle, Wei Daxun's new fans who entered the pit even had a few more TB (** storage units) than others in archaeological materials.
The sentence on the hot search, Wei Daxun has not done a single day in vain in the 15 years since his debutIt starts with "it's all work" and precipitates on "worthy of partners and audience".
In previous years, viewers did often see Wei Daxun on TV.
As long as you turn on the TV or *** it's him anywhere", he can be called a man who can't be controlled by the remote control.
Although he is not a resident guest in "Star Detective", he has left one of the best funny and famous scenes. The anti-string character "Xun Baixue" with no baggage has left a lot of hilarious stalks that will laugh out loud just when they see the text.
My beauty is enviable, and I am envied."
My hair is as black as ebony".
Isn't it enough to have a princess".
Snow White played by Wei Daxun has also become a classic character that some people can't forget.
In order to restore the role, he specially invited a professional ** makeup artist, wearing a wig, his scalp was dry and itchy, but he didn't scratch it in the camera, and before recording, he seriously memorized his character card lines, and pulled the director to practice offense and defense over and over again, and repeatedly combed the timeline.
He is more optimistic and more serious than anyone else.
In "Comedy Story", Wei Daxun quickly adapted to the stage, and the "Secret Love" earned enough tears from the audience, and in the witness of the audience, he went from a newcomer who just wanted to prove that he could act in comedy to the "king of comedy"."。
Life variety shows, career experience variety shows, competition variety shows, and survival challenge variety shows ......It also gives the audience's archaeology the same pleasure as opening a blind box.
From the very beginning, he came for the banquet, and asked the black suit and gold-wire glasses to be welded to death on Wei Daxun's body, and he was not allowed to reveal the slightest bit of honesty.
Later, I really sighed that Wei Daxun's fans ate so well in private.
As Wei Daxun himself said, "Being attracted to a certain character is just a "stepping stone", if the person itself has nothing else to attract you, then this love can't last long, and it's useless to worry about it." I've always been who I am, and I don't try to change anything. ”
Be yourself
Being an actor is Wei Daxun's favorite profession, and it is also the profession he believes he wants to do to the end.
If it is said that Meng Yanchen is a turning point of fate forcibly identified by netizens, thenFor Wei Daxun, the moment when he made up his mind to learn acting many years ago was a turning moment closer to the "gears of fate" in his heart.
"If I hadn't been so determined to learn acting at that time, I wouldn't be where I am now. ”
At that time, he was a little fat man with a height of 180+ and a weight of 180+.
The decision to learn to act, almost no one around Wei Daxun is optimistic.
"At the time, people around me might have thought I was joking, but now they should know that I was never joking."
With the strength in my heart, I run around the playground every day, snatch control of my body with the worms in my stomach, cheer myself up on Weibo to motivate myself, and losing weight is "a big step closer to the performance, and the world is a small step closer to me", and after a short period of effort, I persuaded myself to "be worthy of the previous Wei Daxun.""。
The young words are a little sad, but the hard work did not treat him badly, he lost thirty pounds, was admitted to Chinese opera, and got closer and closer to the profession of actor.
has acted in online dramas, and has also become familiar in many dramas by handing over resumes by running the group, playing Mao Anying's younger brother Mao Anqing, also playing a revolutionary, and also playing a Red Army company commander.
Although there are performances, due to the limitations of the scenes and drama attributes, it is difficult for the audience to remember that there is an actor named Wei Daxun through these "small roles".
The story took a turn for the worse in 2013.
Although he still played a supporting role at this time, the youth campus drama "One and a Half Summer" made the agency at that time see Wei Daxun's potential and signed him.
The following year, he starred in the youth campus movie "Gardenia Blossom" directed by He Jiong, won the Most Potential Newcomer Award, and many viewers knew the name of "Wei Daxun".
Those who are familiar with Wei Daxun will find that he often "steals" on the set.
In the corner of the set of "Volunteers: Heroes Attack", I listened to the director give Wang Yanhui a lecture, and in "Super Doctor", I followed Shen Teng to learn "eating and playing games", learned to find funny things in life, and even discussed with Deng Chao in the process of recording variety shows about the skills of choosing scripts.
Instead of looking back at the choices of the past, and not judging the benefits and losses of what is being done now, it is always on the road.
But do good deeds, don't ask about the future.
The road I have walked, every step counts, every role I have played likes it, can withstand archaeology, and can survive the day of being archived.
