From the heroic defender of "Bright Sword" to the revolutionary flame of "Awakening Age", he won the title of Feitian Emperor with 21 years of glory, he is Zhang Tong.
With his continuous display of strength, how did he ever go through a moment of life and death at a critical juncture in his life? Let's explore the growth and tenacity of this acting superstar.
An in-depth analysis of Zhang Tong's artistic journey, his acting career is not without its ups and downs.
This ordinary scholar, originally majoring in computer science at Nankai University, his science and engineering background and performing arts seem to be two parallel lines that will never intersect, but with his tenacity and determination, he has successfully found his stage in the world of performance.
By chance in his sophomore year, tennis teenager Zhang Tong was discovered by a talent scout and participated in the shooting of an advertisement, and in just a few hours, he was paid a generous salary of several hundred yuan, like a key, revealing a new world for him.
This unexpected sweetness made him fall in love with the modeling industry. With the passage of time, with his unique height and appearance, Zhang Tong has gradually emerged in the modeling industry.
The company was keen to capture this up-and-coming university freshman and decided to give him a unique opportunity to study modelling in France, the fashion capital of the world.
We are well aware of the importance of studying, so we specially arranged for him to enter the École Polytechnique de Paris in order to balance his academics on the way to study abroad. However, the cost of studying abroad was a major financial challenge for his family.
At this moment, standing at a critical fork in the road in his life, Zhang Tong is facing the double test of choice and dream.
Under the deep and affectionate teachings of parents,"Hold it like a treasure and have high hopes"Zhang Tong's parents have worked hard for many years, and even did not hesitate to borrow, just for their children's future to be brighter.
With the ardent expectations of parents and"No success or fame"Zhang Tong cherished his dream and embarked on the journey of professional study of models in a foreign land.
In just three months of model training, Zhang Tong surprisingly found that his passion for theatrical performances was even more intense.
When the admissions information of the Lyon School of Arts and Drama illuminated his dream like the morning light, he resolutely concealed his parents, switched to the School of Drama, and successfully transformed into a dreamer in the acting department.
In the face of the parents' shock and blame, they are full of worry, but they also understand the child's determination that now that the ship has set sail, they can only let it sail into the sea of art.
However, the journey to school has not always been easy, and France's strict policy prohibits students from working while studying. Faced with the huge tuition pressure of the drama school, it exceeded the financial burden of the family.
For the sake of their children's artistic dreams, the parents resolutely went home and did their best to support Zhang Tong's pursuit of studies.
Zhang Tong is well aware of the financial difficulties of his family, so he strictly saves in his daily life, and even has a period of financial constraints to the point that he has to rely on buying ** to maintain basic life.
In the face of the family's financial inability to bear the high tuition fees overseas, he resolutely decided to drop out of school in order not to let his parents continue to suffer, and this tenacity is full of dedication to the future and love for his family.
After returning to China, Zhang Tong actively devoted himself to various film and television projects, with the dream of overseas gold-plated academic qualifications, and was eager to show his talents in the domestic entertainment industry.
Who would have imagined that in the entertainment industry, only talent and no broad network will be difficult.
It was this predicament that made Zhang Tong toss and turn between frequent roles, during which he was deeply trapped in a whirlpool of self-doubt, and even on the verge of despair, and considered giving up his life.
For a dreamer with no backing and no connections, the only foundation in the entertainment industry is perseverance. He excitedly introduced himself to the crew, and finally, that persistent force brought a response.
Despite his ordinary background, God favored this talented young man. The unique vision of the "Flowers and Voices" troupe allowed Zhang Tong to emerge, and since then his acting career has gradually heated up.
Although most of his early roles were supporting roles, every step of the way was solid, and they were the cornerstones that allowed him to move steadily on the path of acting, at least to ensure that he could avoid starvation and continue to accumulate valuable experience.
After the precipitation and accumulation of wind and rain, Zhang Tong ushered in a brilliant turning point. "Seven Fairies of Joy" swept the country and made the play"Eagles"He is famous and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Subsequently, with the insight of the crew of "Bright Sword", he successfully created the legendary character that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people"Monk Wei", which has since left an indelible mark on the screen.
Surprisingly, Zhang Tong's two high-profile dramas are almost seamless, only two months apart, and this kind of frequent wonderful performances has gradually allowed him to accumulate significant popularity.
Moistened by the thirsty rain, Zhang Tong waited for the opportunity, and finally seized this moment and turned it on"Fame and fortune"He devoted himself to the role with all his might, eager to take on a large number of roles, in order to achieve a double harvest of fame and wealth.
Even Zhang Tong, who frequently shuttles between various crews in his acting career, although he was once busy spinning like a spinning top, he failed to maintain continuous popularity and gradually faded out of the public eye.
However, his dedication to each role did not diminish because of this, and this dedication and seriousness eventually won him the favor of an up-and-coming director.
Zhang Tong, who was full of enthusiasm, happily took over the work and devoted himself to it. However, despite his full affection, he did not receive the director's recognition and appreciation, but encountered it frequently"Pause"with"Stop"instructions.
Every time"Nope"The responses are eroding Zhang's confidence, and he is beginning to question his own suitability for the industry. Even at the end of the shooting (finale), that sentence"You're not fit to perform"The voice still lingered in his ears, making Zhang Tong's heart full of confusion.
The frustrations of the past followed like a shadow, and Zhang Tong was almost suffocated, until the haze of depression shrouded him. On the top of the towering building, Zhang Tong's mind is on the verge of shattering, questioning whether the fall will bring relief.
When Zhang Tong was in endless pain, Guan Siting's words were like thunder, instantly deafening and awakening his heart.
How to build an emotional bond that can make Guan Siting confess affectionately? The answer is revealed: she was Zhang Tong's beloved, and their love fate began at the moment when they performed "Chinese Guards" together.
Zhang Tong's introversion made him choose silent observation in the crew, limited to the interaction between lines. With her outgoing personality, Kwan quickly established close ties with her colleagues.
An inadvertent dictation, about the demand for eye drops, Guan Siting cherished it like a treasure and recorded it carefully.
When Guan Siting's crew returned from an interval and intimately brought back a bottle of eye drops for Zhang Tong, at that moment, Zhang Tong, who took the potion, was full of gratitude, and at the same time had a deeper understanding of this girl's pure and noble qualities.
In the flashy entertainment industry, she is like a clear stream, out of the mud without staining, and out of the water out of hibiscus, which is amazing.
Since then, Zhang Tong's eyes have paid more attention to Guan Siting. In the frequent interaction with the same crew, they gradually deepened their understanding and redefined each other.
Guan Siting's lively and delicate personality is deeply engraved in Zhang Tong's memory, and her unique charm makes him close.
The introverted Zhang Tong's love for Guan Siting is deeply hidden, and his emotional world is like a quiet lake. But in a warm dinner, with the strength of being slightly drunk, he mustered up the courage to reveal his heart to Guan Siting.
This sudden confession, like a lit light, naturally shortened the distance between the two. Thus began a sweet six-year journey.
In the six-year love journey together, Zhang Tong seems to have nothing, but Guan Siting is deeply attracted by his sincerity and simplicity, no matter whether it is good or bad, she is always the same.
During this period, Zhang Tong faced the severe test of life and unfortunately fell into the abyss of severe depression.
In the past days, Guan Siting did not hesitate to put love above her career, and she devoted herself to the company of Zhang Tong.
In the face of Zhang Tong's condition, she followed closely with great firmness, and even after Zhang Tong fell asleep, she dared to steal a moment of rest, just because she guarded him and prevented him from acting impulsively.
Under Guan Siting's consistent waiting and encouragement, Zhang Tong's spiritual light gradually dispelled the haze of depression and successfully regained the initiative of health.
Behind this **, Guan Siting's company plays a decisive role. Therefore, without hesitation, Zhang Tong decided to tie the knot with this special person and immediately prepared for their celebration of love.
Zhang Tong and Guan Siting entered the palace of marriage hand in hand, which just confirms the ancient wisdom - there is a turning point hidden in a predicament. After rising from the trough of life, Zhang Tong's vitality is like a phoenix, and his career has ushered in a new peak.
With the role of Chen Shuxiang in "Desperate Defender", he achieved a self-breakthrough and a successful interpretation of the role.
With his superb interpretation of Chen Shuxiang's role, Zhang Tong rose to prominence in this Feitian Award and won the title of Emperor Shi with the youngest attitude, writing a brilliant story.
At this moment, Zhang Tong achieved the pinnacle of self-worth, but his light did not immediately illuminate the entire film and television industry because of his outstanding performance.
At that time, war dramas were not popular, which made him quickly return to calm after his glory and face the dilemma of having no drama to pick up.
However, the tide of the times has brought about a turning point, cultural self-confidence has become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and film and television works with historical and war themes have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
This has brought new opportunities for Zhang Tong. "The Awakening Age" was born, and Zhang Tong played the role of Li Dazhao in the play, vividly interpreting the tenacity and demeanor of intellectuals in that revolutionary era, opening a new chapter in his acting career.
Zhang Tong's role as Li Dazhao in "The Awakening Age" made the audience deeply recognize his acting skills, although he was not nominated for the Magnolia Award, the enthusiastic response on the Internet expressed the public's deep regret and appreciation for him.
He used the roles of Monk Wei in "Bright Sword" and Li Dazhao in "The Awakening Age" to show the audience his irrefutable acting skills.
Surprisingly, the popular actor Zhang Tong quietly faded out of the film and television industry, not due to external pressure, but because of his active choice of strategy - he chose to slow down and devote himself to the stage of the National Repertory Theatre of China, continuing his artistic exploration in a different way.
Although the brilliance of the film and television field once attracted Zhang Tong, now he has turned the focus of his work to the drama stage, a shift that may be a pity for his acting career and the audience, but from the perspective of his personal development, it is a deliberate decision.
Zhang Tong has found a new stage, and although he does not often appear on the big screen, he sees drama as a new starting point for realizing his self-worth.
In this artistic field, his deep understanding and demanding requirements for roles have enabled him to find a practice soil that is more in line with his inner pursuit in drama performance.
Looking back on Zhang Tong's career, he seems to have gone above and beyond"Stars"is more like a real actor. Although he had youthful dreams and briefly pursued fame and fortune, his heart was always the same.
In the turmoil of the entertainment industry, he has a unique vision, always adheres to the original enthusiasm of the actor, and does not forget his original intention.
