Before she became popular, she was an unknown little actor in the entertainment industry. When I went to audition for the new crew, I was scolded by the producer: "You have a problem with your appearance, hurry up and go for plastic surgery!."”
She was accidentally injured while filming a blasting scene, and she was scolded by the staff on the spot and cried.
When participating in the popular variety show, he was criticized by his classmate Yuan Shanshan: "You snore when you sleep." ”
When she was invited to a high-end dinner, she was surprised to find that she didn't have a seat reserved for her, and this happened a month before the release of "Hello, Lee Huanying"!
Zhang Xiaofei is about to become popular, but she is slowly fading out of the public eye, and no one knows her. All this happened after she saw through the cruel truth of the entertainment industry.
The entertainment industry is an extremely realistic place, and the heat determines everything. When there's heat, you'll be sought after;When it loses its popularity, it will be forgotten, as if it has become an "outcast".
This makes people wonder, ten years of hard work have been in vain, once you become famous, are you destined to only face the fate of being forgotten?
In the Spring Festival of 2021, Jia Ling made a stunning appearance with her director's ** work "Hello, Li Huanying", and the audience was amazed by Jia Ling's directorial talent, and deeply intoxicated by Zhang Xiaofei's love and interpretation of the role.
Zhang Xiaofei was mistaken for a newcomer in the entertainment industry, but after digging deeper, she found that she had survived silently in the vast world of the entertainment industry for a whole decade!
On January 10, 1986, in Anshan City, Liaoning Province, a girl with extraordinary dancing talent was born, she was regarded as the treasure of the family by her parents, and was named "Zhang Xiaofei".
Zhang Xiaofei grew up in a loving family, she is polite, gentle and lovely, coupled with her sweet appearance, she can always hear the appreciation of the people around her.
After Zhang Xiaofei entered primary school, she showed amazing dancing talent in a theatrical performance organized by the school, and the teacher in charge of dancing praised her as a malleable talent and informed her parents about it.
When Zhang Xiaofei's parents learned about this, they were overjoyed, and they asked their daughter: "Xiaofei, are you interested in learning to dance?"”
The young Zhang Xiaofei agreed without hesitation, and since then he has started a long road of struggle.
Since she was a child, Zhang Xiaofei has known the truth that "genius is 1% talent and 99% sweat", she studied dance very hard, even when others were resting and slacking, she never relaxed.
Zhang Xiaofei was admitted to the High School Affiliated to Beijing Dance Academy at the age of 11, and despite the rigors of the school's training, she never flinched, and her dedication paid off handsomely.
Zhang Xiaofei will soon graduate from junior high school, and she has achieved excellent results in the Chinese Armed Police Art Troupe with her extraordinary talent, which was a dream opportunity for many dance students at the time.
Zhang Xiaofei has been working in the art troupe for 4 years and is very familiar with everyone and everything here.
However, fate forced her out of her comfort zone.
Due to the influence of system reform, the art troupe gradually declined, and Zhang Xiaofei had to start thinking about his future plan.
Zhang Xiaofei later realized that she was too young to be tied to a way of life, and she decided to give up her dance work and devote herself to the field of acting.
Although Zhang Xiaofei has no professional background, she plans to be admitted to the Beijing Film Academy and begins to dream of winning the Best Actress in Film award.
After her own efforts, 19-year-old Zhang Xiaofei quickly realized her wish to be admitted to Nortel.
During her college years, she still maintained her previous hard work attitude, whether it was in academic performance or in her relationships with teachers and classmates, she performed well, often ranked at the top, and was widely loved.
Zhang Xiaofei has stepped into the actual film stage, and her outstanding performance and excellent results have enabled her to get the heroine role of the first movie "Beacon Years" in her life.
At this time, other students are still learning professional knowledge on campus.
It's a pity that the movie didn't cause much of a sensation at the time, so the rookie actor Zhang Xiaofei didn't get much attention either.
After some crew experience, Zhang Xiaofei has a clearer understanding of the importance of acting.
Therefore, she began to devote herself to the study of performing arts, thinking that she would be so good that she would continue to receive film and television invitations after graduation.
She didn't expect that what awaited her was a longer ordeal.
Although Zhang Xiaofei was not as confused about what work she would do in the future after graduation, for a period of time after graduation, she neither received the opportunity to get a movie nor signed a contract with the company, so she entered a long period of running the show.
She excelled in college, but was unable to find her dream job after graduation. For others, experiencing such a huge gap may have long been helpless.
However, Zhang Xiaofei did not embark on this path, but instead chose to actively devote herself to the work of the crew, enduring all kinds of unfair treatment and being left out in the cold.
However, the situation did not improve, and her meager income even made her unable to eat enough and live a life of poverty, Zhang Xiaofei once used this metaphor to express the situation at that time: "I am like the meat buns in the breakfast shop, which have lost their heat as soon as they come out of the pot." ”
Despite her hard work, the wheel of fortune never seems to tilt in her favor. Zhang Xiaofei's efforts seem to be in more obvious contrast with those of his classmates.
Although they are also professionally trained, her classmates have already had thriving careers.
Yang Mi quickly became a first-line little girl for starring in "The Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" and "Palace", while Yuan Shanshan gradually emerged with "Palace 2" under the command of gold medal producer Yu Zheng.
Although Zhang Xiaofei starred in movies such as "Shakespeare of Big Cakes" and "Winter of Village Learning", her roles and performances compared with Yang Mi and Yuan Shanshan in the same period could not leave a deep impression on the audience at all.
Zhang Xiaofei's life has been smooth sailing for more than 20 years, but now it is blocked by the sign "This road is not passable". Therefore, she decided to make a living first and then realize her dream of being an actress.
When God closes a door for you, He also opens a window for you. Under the guidance of the teacher, Zhang Xiaofei successfully entered the China Broadcasting Art Troupe and became a host. In this art troupe, she got to know many veteran artists.
Most of her team are seniors engaged in cross talk and comedy performances, and Zhang Xiaofei originally planned to ask them for experience in film acting, but unexpectedly entered the comedy circle by mistake.
Zhang Xiaofei has always worked diligently and has never discriminated against himself as an actor for performing comedy.
It wasn't until later that she met two people who changed the trajectory of her life.
Jia Ling has a similar experience with Zhang Xiaofei and is one of the people who changed the trajectory of Zhang Xiaofei's life. However, Jia Ling's path to education was not so lucky.
In 2000, Jia Ling came to Beijing with a vision for movies. However, she unexpectedly failed in the interview.
Despite this, she did not give up, but chose to stay in Beijing, studying and working at the same time, determined to be admitted to the Beijing Theater Academy.
Her living conditions were difficult, she lived in a dilapidated house, she didn't have enough money to pay her electricity bills, and in the end, she couldn't even pay the rent, so she had to hide from her landlord.
Jia Ling's sister saw Jia Ling's pitiful appearance and persuaded her to go back to her hometown to find a job, but she refused.
Jia Ling's will was not smoothed by the hard life, but was promoted.
In the end, she was successfully admitted to the Beijing Theater Academy, but because of a coincidence, she originally wanted to sign up for the comedy class, but she mistakenly reported the cross talk class, thus becoming Feng Gong's big shut-off.
With the support of Feng Gong, Jia Ling unexpectedly embarked on the road to fame, and at the same time, she also met Zhang Xiaofei.
They had a similar experience, which made them regret not having met earlier.
But Jia Ling was not very famous at that time, so she felt that although she had the heart to help Zhang Xiaofei realize her dream of being an actor, she was unable to do so.
Feng Gong found that there was a tacit understanding between the two, and on the basis of Zhang Xiaofei's rich acting experience, he decided to join hands with Zhang Xiaofei to participate in the performance of the sketch, and their cooperation continued until the performance of the Spring Festival Gala.
With the help of Feng Gong, Zhang Xiaofei finally showed her charm in front of the audience, although there are still many people who are not familiar with her, but for her, this is the first step towards success.
Jia Ling was later invited to participate in the comedy show "Happy Comedian", but lacked a partner.
So she asked Zhang Xiaofei if she was willing to perform comedy. Zhang Xiaofei understood that this was her good friend Jia Ling helping her, so she gladly accepted Jia Ling's invitation.
Zhang Xiaofei was praised by netizens as "the most beautiful comedian" because of his outstanding performance, and since then he has embarked on the road of comedy.
Jia Ling deliberately created her ugly image when performing in comedy shows, and the other actor she partnered with was a combination of "one thin and one fat, one beautiful and one ugly", and the wonderful chemistry between the two left a deep impression on the audience and showed a good tacit understanding between them.
After Jia Ling established "Big Bowl Entertainment", the first artist to sign a contract was Zhang Xiaofei.
Although outsiders seem to have a subordinate relationship, in fact, Jia Ling does not regard Zhang Xiaofei as a subordinate, their relationship is as close as sisters, and they talk about everything.
It wasn't until the release of "Hello, Li Huanying" that Zhang Xiaofei made everyone remember her with her delicate acting skills, a movie directed by Jia Ling.
Zhang Xiaofei won the title of Best Actress at the 34th Golden Rooster Awards in November 2021 for her outstanding performance in the movie "Hello, Li Huanying".
A year later, she attended the awards ceremony of the Golden Rooster Film Festival as a host.
Zhang Xiaofei has attracted much attention because of his great success, and with it comes the harvest of more abundant resources, such as invitations to various programs and the emergence of brand endorsements.
Zhang Xiaofei's "mother" character is deeply loved by netizens, and even the organizers of various programs will affectionately call her "our mother" when promoting, which shows her great influence.
Zhang Xiaofei's sudden popularity also made those who had bullied her the target of public criticism.
Yuan Shanshan apologized to everyone on Weibo for her inappropriate words and deeds in the variety show before, and Sun Qian, who once bullied her with her high seniority, is now also being labeled a "wicked person" by netizens.
However, this craze for "national mothers" did not last long before it gradually subsided.
Followed by various doubts, some people pointed out that Zhang Xiaofei is just an ordinary actor, and if it weren't for Jia Ling's strong support, she would not have been so popular.
Their encounter actually reveals a story, which is the story of two girls who go from strangers to acquaintances and finally realize their dreams together.
They have been through difficult times together and have been with each other. The relationship between the two is not as complicated as netizens imagined. Zhang Xiaofei's success is inseparable from Jia Ling's support, but the decisive factor is still her excellent acting skills.
Unfortunately, as time went by, Zhang Xiaofei's popularity continued to decline.
Playing the role of "Li Huanying" brought her a lot of **, but soon, she seemed to be back to the state before she became popular.
It has been 10 years since Zhang Xiaofei's debut, and she has jumped from a "little transparent" to a "big star", but she is not fluttering because of some achievements.
On the contrary, she insisted on becoming a "clear stream" in the entertainment industry through her practical actions.
Her attitude towards trampling and abuse is to deal with it calmly, she chooses not to quarrel with others, not to hype, and to focus on doing her job with peace of mind.
Zhang Xiaofei announced the dissolution of her fan support club after the fire of "Hello, Li Huanying", and she is very clear about her position as a woman in her 30s.
She understands that she can't sell the so-called "girl" image, and she doesn't want to see fans too obsessed with star-chasing and "star-making" circles, but hopes that they can focus on her works.
In the entertainment industry, the dissolution of the fan support club is really rare, and this move also made her fans sigh: "Sure enough, I didn't see the wrong person."
However, this "different" move has reduced the discussion and attention paid to Zhang Xiaofei and her work, causing her to fade from public view in recent years.
In the entertainment industry, people often say that "Xiaohong relies on support, and Dahong relies on good luck".
When idols release new works, "Little Reds" will do their best to list, publicize and collect various data for idols to enhance their popularity and popularity. Unlike the approach where traffic is the primary goal, Zhang Xiaofei chose a different path.
Although the outside world may think that this is a stupid move, in fact, it is exactly her insistence on her original intention.
Zhang Xiaofei's future development needs to be taken into account, and reducing ** may be unfavorable. Because she has lost her ** degree, she will be like a tea cool person, and fewer and fewer people will pay attention to her.
On such a broad stage as the entertainment industry, a star without popularity is like a stone thrown into the sea, no matter how big the waves are stirred, the noise caused by it will eventually gradually dissipate.
However, Zhang Xiaofei doesn't seem to care too much about the benefits of traffic, she concentrates on acting, and has handed over three works in just two years.
"Exchanging Lives", which was released on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, has aroused widespread curiosity, and the audience is looking forward to what kind of surprises the director will present to us. It's a pity that the film failed to meet the audience's expectations in the end and was evaluated as a "bad movie".
Has Zhang Xiaofei become famous because of this situation, and his attitude towards work has become less serious?
The sad thing about the entertainment industry actually lies in this.
Zhang Xiaofei doesn't have any problems, she has always worked hard and is more serious than most actors.
And the problem has always been the vanity fair of the entertainment industry.
It only focuses on traffic and popularity, and can reverse black and white, and people like Zhang Xiaofei who do not participate in the "fan circle" culture, their popularity and attention will only be completely swallowed up by others.
In addition, there are two other works of Zhang Xiaofei that have not yet met the audience.
The crime suspense film "Saving the Suspect" directed by director Zhang Mo and the TV series "Good Things Come in Pairs" with Huang Xiaoming are highly anticipated by fans.
Fans hope that Zhang Xiaofei can perform well in these two works, and use her strength to prove that she is not "fluttering", but is polishing her works more perfectly.
There is always no shortage of bastards in the entertainment industry, and once some traffic stars lose power, there will be newcomers to fill their positions immediately.
What the entertainment industry really needs is actors like Zhang Xiaofei, who have been single-mindedly focused on their acting careers for the past decade and can always stick to their original intentions.
Everyone has the right to decide how to live their lives, Zhang Xiaofei always sticks to her own way, and the audience will always find the potential and excellence in her.
She has been doing it for 10 years and has shown everyone her determination to become a great film actress.
Zhang Xiaofei's success is difficult to replicate, and even she herself thinks that it is very difficult to reach the height of the role of "Li Huanying" again. She strives to let more people see herself through her work.
However, "a mountain is higher than a mountain", and surpassing one's own achievements is like crossing a higher mountain, which is extremely difficult.
Zhang Xiaofei has experienced ten years of hardships, how can he not understand this truth?I hope she can stick to her original intention, overcome difficulties, and finally see the beautiful scenery.
