In the entertainment industry, all kinds of stars emerge in endlessly, almost all of them are handsome men and beautiful women, but safflower is always lined with green leaves, and not all of them are handsome guys or beauties in a work, there must always be some ordinary-looking and even some harlequins, so as to be more perfect.
Like the familiar "Ruhua", "Sister Pomegranate" and "Du Xudong", etc., it is also with their foil that makes the works more exciting.
The one we are talking about today is also the one who was discovered by Stephen Chow because he looked too "bad", and after that, he continued to make appointments, and he bought a car and a house in Hengdian, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a winner in life.
He is the actor Liu Zhanzhan, saying that many people may not know his name, he is not a well-known actor, but he is a well-known actor in Hengdian.
Liu Zhanzhan is a native of Henan, he has liked to perform since he was a child, and when he grew up, he entered the local art troupe and often appeared in cross talk and sketches.
In those days, although it was not very rich, it was still good.
Being an actor has always been his dream, and for the dream in his heart, he gave up everything despite the dissuasion of his family, and he came to Hengdian and came to this actor's paradise.
He started from playing tricks, in order to wake up from a dream, he was not afraid of hardship, he was not afraid of tiredness, and in order to earn an extra 5 yuan, he was also very willing to play a dead corpse.
Although he works hard enough for his dream, it doesn't mean that there will be a good opportunity, because there are too many actors like him in Hengdian, and there are many people who work harder than him.
The people around him often talked about him like this, saying that this person looked bad, and when he heard someone comment on him like this, he didn't get angry, but changed his thinking about acting and began to play the bad guy.
Over time, he has become one of the director's favorite group performances, as long as there is a scene suitable for him, many directors can immediately think of him, because of this, he has also been appreciated by Stephen Chow.
Stephen Chow wanted to select actors in Hengdian because of the filming of "Journey to the West", and many group performers also went to audition one after another, including Liu Zhan.
Because of his "bad" reputation, he was selected to play the role of Gao Laozhuang's shopkeeper.
In Stephen Chow's movies, even if it is a small role, the director has high requirements for the actors, this role does not only have to play the appearance of a bad guy, but more importantly, it must have a certain acting skills.
So, Stephen Chow personally went into battle to guide, and with the guidance of Xingye, Liu Zhan's acting skills have also been greatly improved.
He was discovered by Stephen Chow because he looked like a "bad guy", not only made a movie of Xingye, but also became a special actor in Hengdian after becoming popular through this movie, and his salary was rubbing up.
Since then, Liu Zhan's salary has grown from dozens or hundreds to 2,000, and he can be seen in many films and television.
This undoubtedly greatly improved Liu Zhan's life, not only paid off his debts, but also bought a car and a house in Hengdian, and brought his family to live in Hengdian.
In the eyes of many people, Liu Zhanzhan is lucky, because he has been appreciated by Stephen Chow, he has more opportunities to perform.
But it is not so much that Liu Zhanzhan is a lucky person, but that he is a very hard-working and patient, before he became famous, when he was performing, he would always seriously figure out his role, even if he was a dead corpse, he would ponder for a long time.
Liu Zhan's success cannot be replicated, he was just one of the many chasing dreams in Hengdian back then, and it was strength and luck that allowed him to realize his dream.
But then again, only by making yourself more valuable will you have the opportunity to meet nobles, otherwise the god of luck will come, and we won't be able to catch it.
Conclusion
Finally, I also wish Liu Zhanzhan a smooth sailing on his acting career in the future, create more classic roles for us, stick to his original intention, and go all the way.
