"There is still such an ugly person who can become a movie queen? ”
When the 38th Taiwan Golden Horse Awards presented the Best Actress and Best Newcomer awards to the "small-eyed, big-mouthed" actor Qin Hailu, perhaps many people were confused and wondered how she won these awards.
As we all know, in order for an actress to win the love of the audience in the entertainment industry, she must first have excellent appearance.
As the saying goes, "appearance is justice", this sentence is not unreasonable.
The appearance of some female celebrities is very different from the mainstream standard, although big eyes, double eyelids, long legs and thin waist seem to be the common standards in the industry.
Even though their appearance may be far from the director's aesthetic standards, and they have even been rejected many times because of their appearance, this does not stop them from becoming popular.
Some young people have ascended to the throne of the actress early, and some people have become the white moonlight in the minds of the audience, and some people may say: "Money can make ghosts grind!" ”
However, once you get to know them in depth, you'll find that it's not just money that you can beat, it's strength!
The 23-year-old Qin Hailu won 5 awards including Best Actress and Best Newcomer with the role of "Qin Yan" in the movie "Durian Piao". At the time, she was just starting her career.
Her first work is the first work she stepped into the entertainment industry, and it is unbelievable that a newcomer with a mediocre appearance can win such a high honor.
Qin Hailu did it, and when she was at the award ceremony, she was still a very immature little girl, with a strange makeup and panicked expression, making "the ugliest queen" the most prominent label on her body.
She was both happy and apprehensive, and couldn't believe everything, because it was her first production.
Before that, she never thought that she would enter the entertainment industry, because she knew that her appearance was not outstanding.
Perhaps, something was meant to happen.
Since elementary school, she has been sent by her parents to study at the opera school in her hometown, focusing on Dao Ma Dan.
In order to master this skill, she went through many hardships early on.
She woke up at 6 a.m. every morning and started practicing flying feet and singing, as well as somersaults, which was a very hard time, especially when the other children were still asleep.
Her will has been honed because she knows that hard work will always pay off.
She had planned to apply for the Chinese Opera Academy during the college entrance examination, but surprisingly, the school did not admit undergraduates that year. In the end, she chose ** Drama School by chance.
She has been studying opera since she was a child, so she doesn't find it difficult to interview. When she performed "The Legend of the White Snake", the interviewer was directly amazed. After passing the cultural class assessment, she became a classmate of Zhang Ziyi, Zeng Li, Yuan Quan and others.
Among this group of beauties, Qin Hailu is not outstanding, and her single eyelid and small eyes make her look ordinary. When everyone else was filming, she still handed resumes between the crew.
It wasn't until she witnessed the interviewer tear up her ** that she lost her enthusiasm for learning acting for a while. During that time, she was extremely decadent and spent her days wandering around campus.
However, it was during this time of idleness that she unexpectedly rose to prominence and eventually became a movie queen!
After receiving the award at the age of 23, she chose to quit the entertainment industry and joined a company as an envied white-collar worker. However, in just half a year, she was fired.
She tried to run a barber shop, a hot pot restaurant, and an advertising company, but unfortunately all ended up losing money. In the end, she realized: "I'm still the best for acting!" So, a few years later, he re-entered the entertainment industry.
Her outstanding performance has not only been proven in the movies "Piano of Steel" and "Youth Pie", as well as the TV series "Red Sorghum" and "White Deer Plain", but also confirmed what she said that she was born to act.
Her biggest dream was to be able to marry into a wealthy family, but in the end, she fell in love with Wang Xinjun, who was married for the second time, entered the palace of marriage, and became a flattered little princess.
On January 25, the husband and wife cooperated again and jointly presented the war comedy "Dog Leftovers Run", in which Qin Hailu starred and was broadcast directly on the CCTV stage.
Qin Hailu's acting skills and strength have been proven again, and the film she starred in won the top ratings on the first day of release!
This actress is indeed powerful, and it is very natural, she is a role model for actresses in the entertainment industry!
Yao Chen and Qin Hailu have similar experiences, they are ordinary in appearance but loved by the audience.
In addition, Yao Chen is also known as the "Queen of Big Mouths"!
In 2006, with the broadcast of the sitcom "Wulin Gaiden", more people finally saw the role of Guo Furong in the play played by Yao Chen.
However, what followed was criticism from everyone: "She can still act with such a big mouth?" Is there no one in the internal entertainment industry anymore? Yao Chen once responded in her blog: "Why do I have to look the same as other female stars? ”
When Yao Chen took over the drama, no one was optimistic about her. At that time, she had graduated from Beiying for more than 3 years, and her work was not going well. Her teacher even advised her: "Girl, you have to go and do some mainstream play!" ”
Despite everyone's opposition, Yao Chen resolutely decided to take over the filming of this drama, even though other stars were able to get hundreds of thousands of dollars when filming commercials, she only charged 1,000 yuan.
Eventually, she became popular, but the pressure was always with her.
Beautiful women frequently appear in the entertainment industry, but Yao Chen has a mediocre appearance and a large mouth, and she is hesitant whether she should step into this circle.
After all, she not only gave up the dance she had been studying for 10 years, but also faced the liquidated damages of up to 100,000 yuan from the Fuzhou Song and Dance Troupe, which must be considered when deciding to enter Beiying to study.
When she was 14 years old, the Fuzhou Song and Dance Troupe selected her and sponsored her to study at the Beijing Dance Academy.
After graduating, she became an employee of the song and dance troupe, and if she wanted to leave, she had to pay 100,000 yuan in liquidated damages.
Despite this situation, Yao Chen, who had a dream, was successfully admitted to the Beijing Film Academy, she was born in an ordinary family, and she had to work while going to school.
She only has dreams, and her classmates are all outstanding in appearance and have deep backgrounds.
She has no background and can only rely on her own strength. As a result, during her studies, she excelled in her professional classes and was always at the top of her list.
However, her acting career was not smooth after graduation. In the end, the reason why she was able to be favored by the director of "Wulin Gaiden" was because of one characteristic: "Ugly! ”
When the filming of this drama began, friends originally did not approve of Yao Chen's appearance, and in addition to the director, the rest of the crew did not agree to let Yao Chen appear because they thought she was "ugly".
Although Yao Chen became an instant hit with this drama, she was not willing to be fixed in this image.
Yao Chen later played Cui Ping in "Latent", played Mango in "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", and "Su Mingyu" in "It's All Good", all of which proved her strength, she is by no means a vase, but an excellent acting school!
Yao Chen has long accepted her appearance, and she does not make a living from her appearance.
Guo Degang jokingly said to her on the show: "As soon as you open your mouth, half of my head will be gone." Yao Chen replied humorously: "It's nothing, I can also put blush on you!" ”
Yao Chen has given birth to two children in the past two years, gradually moved behind the scenes, and became a director and producer.
On January 29, "Umbilical Cord", her new film, won the Best Film Award at the 22nd Dhaka International Film Festival in Bangladesh.
Yao Chen's experience shows that strength is always more important than appearance!
In the entertainment industry, Ren Suxi's "donkey face" is also notorious because it is not good-looking, compared with Yao Chen's big mouth and Qin Hailu's small eyes.
She once cried on the stage of "I Am an Actor" and said: "I have seen many excellent scripts, but they did not choose me, I want to say that I have the ability to perform well!" ”
A few years later, the movie "Nobody" became a hit, and the audience became interested in the "Ma Jiaqi" played in the play, especially the classic "urinary incontinence" scene was impressive.
Director Feng Xiaogang publicly stated that he was a fan of Ren Suxi after the release of the movie "Half a Comedy", and Ren Suxi won two awards for this movie, the Huading Award and the Golden Rooster Award.
She was given the title of "Donkey Face Queen", a label that was not only given by people, but also represented everyone's affirmation of her.
They, like the first two, were not professional performers before they chose to become actors. Qin Hailu is good at opera, Yao Chen is good at dancing, and Ren Suxi is good at **.
When I was young, although Ren Suxi's family was not wealthy, at least she didn't have to starve, and her parents still had a little money to support her studies**.
Even when he was 11 years old, when his father was suffering from cancer, he said that he would no longer **, but buy a piano for his daughter.
After his father died of cancer, Ren Suxi moved to his stepfather's house with his mother. In the year of the college entrance examination, her mother wanted her to apply for a normal school, but in the end she chose the directing department.
While studying directing, he unexpectedly began his acting career and won an unexpected award in a school competition.
She once thought that she could become an actor by virtue of her strength, but she didn't realize that no appearance would make her road to fame extremely difficult.
She recommended herself to participate in "Donkey Gets Water", which is considered a good career. Despite her small eyes, high cheekbones, and buckteeth, no director has chosen her since she chose to become an actress.
Not only did she have an outstanding performance in acting, but she also sang many songs extensively, such as "Wang Zhaojun" and "Childhood". There is no doubt that she is a versatile and talented woman.
At the end of 2023, she not only won the Tencent Starlight Awards for TV Drama Role of the Year, but was also selected as the "Influential Person of the Year" by China News Weekly in 2023!
So, what's the point if you don't look outstanding? Only strong strength can make people continue to surpass!
In the entertainment industry, although appearance is the key to knocking on the door, if you don't have strength, it is difficult to last only by appearance, after all, beautiful people are not uncommon in this world.
A person's greatest magic weapon is strength. As the saying goes, when the appearance is not enough, you have to rely on strength to make up for it. But if the strength is not enough, can the appearance make up for it?
