In 2021, Yu Hewei is no longer an "Internet celebrity" known all over the world for "Bang Di", the hit drama " Awakening Age " won him the best actor in Magnolia in one fell swoop, and the whole network called "actually". named". He lost his father at the age of three and lost three loves in his life. In the past three decades, Yu Hewei's acting career is far less beautiful than the audience has seen.
In 1971, Yu Hewei was born in Fushun, Liaoning Province. He is the youngest in the family. He has 8 older brothers and sisters. It can be imagined that this family is not rich. When Yu Hewei was born, his eldest sister was 24 years old and had a child of her own. Yu Hewei grew up on the milk of the eldest sister with his niece.
Unfortunately, Yu Hewei's father died suddenly when he was 3 years old due to overwork Streets and alleys sell roasted sweet potatoes , literally pulling Yu Hewei and other children into adults.

As the brothers and sisters became independent, Yu Hewei was the only one who spent money at home. His mother did her best to help him study. Unfortunately, Yu Hewei's grades were not very good. I plan to repeat my studies, but my family is too poor to pay 5 yuan for tuition fees. A teacher surnamed Wu took great care of Yu Hewei and helped him pay for tuition.

Mr. Wu's appearance can be said to fill in the father's love that Yu Hewei lacked in his childhood. Later, after Yu Hewei became famous, he also repaid his gratitude and often returned to his hometown to see him. Without the encouragement of this teacher Wu, Yu Hewei might not have applied for the kindergarten teacher who was recruiting boys that year, and he would not have embarked on the road of acting.
Yu Hewei visited Mr. Wu.
After graduating from normal school, Yu Hewei seized the opportunity just in time for the drama troupe to recruit people in school .However, in the drama troupe, he found that if he really wanted to eat as an actor, he had to go to school. At that time, he wanted to take the exam of the Shanghai Theater Academy , but the problem was that his family really had no money, and his mother did not support him as an actor.

, who is in his early 20s, is the opposite of his mother, but the eldest sister is very supportive of Yu Hewei's further education, and even sold her child's piano to pay for Yu Hewei's tuition. To have such an eldest sister is really a blessing in Yu Hewei's life. With the money given by the eldest sister, he also secretly told himself that he must stand out and live up to the expectations of his family.
During the 24 years of at university, Yu Hewei studied acting while earning living expenses part-time, and even received a salary of 1,500 yuan for an episode during his part-time work, which made Yu Hewei overjoyed and somewhat arrogant.
In 1990, Yu Hewei acted in a TV series for the first time. He was reprimanded by director for being a Northeast scumbag. After all, it was from a professional unit, so why can't he speak Mandarin well? The director asked him to finish his tongue twister practice before eating, and he put down his chopsticks and left when he was young.
Sure enough, after graduating from acting, Yu Hewei was beaten up in real life. He acted in more than 100 plays in the troupe, but because it was a trick, his name would never appear on the cast. He went to negotiate the salary with the crew alone, but the negotiation broke down, and no drama came to him for the next three years.
Under the encouragement of the eldest sister, Yu Hewei didn't start his work again until around 2003.

In 2003, in "History of the Sky", Yu Hewei played the role of the villainous monument. This drama brought Yu Hewei a certain popularity. Immediately after that, he filmed works such as "Mansion Gate 2", "Taking the Wrong Car", "Army Team Behind the Enemy", "The Age of True Love" and "The Middle Game".
In "The Mansion Gate 2", Yu Hewei played Bai Zhan'an, who is also the villain.
These dramas became popular, but Yu Hewei did not become popular. It was not until "Drunk in Gold", Fan Baohua's role that he was nominated for the Best Actor in the Magnolia Award at the Shanghai TV Festival, which was also the first time he was recognized by a professional award.

For a long time, the audience remembered Yu Hewei's role, but could not remember his name, but Yu Hewei didn't take it to heart at all. He began to try many roles with great contrasts, sometimes crazy, sometimes introverted. "Thousands of people and thousands of faces" refers to his efforts to break through himself during this period.
The opportunity is still reserved for those who are prepared. When Gao Xixi was preparing for the new "Three Kingdoms", it was directly finalized that Yu Hewei would play Liu Bei.

The remake of the famous book, with pearls and jade in the front, Yu Hewei's pressure to take over this role can be imagined. At this time, it has been 20 years since he was scolded Mandarin for the first time in a TV series. After 20 years of sharpening a sword, Yu Hewei has become another version of the classic "Uncle Liu".

Seven years later, in "The Great Military Advisor Sima Yi's Military Advisor Alliance", "Uncle Liu" has transformed into a "generation hero" Cao Cao, and only he knows the transformation and experience during this period.
Yu Hewei plays Cao Cao
Cao Cao, the comprehensive contradiction of ambition and machination, is vividly portrayed by him, especially in the scene of dancing guns in the evening, he cannot simply break out his emotions, but through his tight brows and determined eyes, he shows this The pride and ambition in the hearts of heroes who have been through life.

Whether it is a TV series or the big screen, Yu Hewei has contributed a lot of wonderful performances step by step. With the movie " I am not Pan Jinlian ", he won the Best Supporting Actor at the 31st China Film Golden Rooster Awards.

What is unknown is that while Hewei's career was climbing, he also experienced the death of two loves of life.
The eldest sister passed away due to terminal lung cancer, and Yu Hewei was unable to go back in time during filming, which became the grief and regret of Yu Hewei's life. When his mother died, he was not seen for the last time. When the two relatives died, it was his wife Song Linjing who helped Yu Hewei with housework.
Song Linjing was also an actor originally, and they both belonged to the same drama troupe. Song Linjing, who has good looks and temperament, has always been the dream lover of many male colleagues in the drama troupe, and Yu Hewei is of course no exception. So he began to pursue Song Linjing actively, and the two came together soon after.
Later, Yu Hewei went to Shanghai to continue his studies. Song Linjing knew that he was worried about his old mother, so he often visited his mother for him. Yu Hewei's mother saw it and told him not to let such a good girl down.
Yu Hewei thought about it and proposed to let Song Linjing go to Shanghai with him.Just at that time, the Shanghai Theater Academy's advanced training class was recruiting students, and Yu Hewei encouraged his girlfriend to take the test. Song Linjing was also very high-spirited. In 1994, she was successfully admitted to the advanced training class of the Shanghai Theater Academy, and the two finally ended this difficult long-distance relationship.
The two of them went through a quiet and nameless day together, and it was a bittersweet experience. After Yu Hewei's career took off, Song Linjing gave up her career and concentrated on the woman behind Hewei. The two have been in love for 30 years since they fell in love and married. Song Linjing gave birth to a daughter for Yu Hewei, and the family of three is enviably happy. After
became popular, Yu Hewei was also dubbed the "walking acting textbook", but he did not accept this title. "I still have a textbook, which one? Still walking?" The slightly humorous and unrestrained response is the confidence of his more than 30 years in the performance industry.
can become popular on the Internet with a piece of disco video, which is a blessing that many traffic stars can't expect. Yu Hewei, who has acted for decades, never imagined that he would be out of the circle in such a way.
Yu Hewei also enjoyed this wave of dividends brought by the Internet at the beginning, but then he calmed down and said, "Fortunately, I have works." How many "superstars" who are not worthy of the name must be ashamed by this sentence!
does not delay the short-term scenery, but this year, Yu Hewei is really popular.
He is a man who knows the proportions. He quickly plays with all kinds of "fan circle culture" like a young man, but he is very clear that his identity is an actor, or an actor who does not want to use a role to eat for a lifetime, so He is no longer obsessed with the role, not sticking to any role, he only chooses the one he likes to play, and then constantly runs in with the crew and director, and strives to come up with better works.
Maybe it's because, along the way, he has stood behind too many noble people, a mother who has worked hard, Teacher Wu who is like a loving father, a big sister who loves him, and Song Linjing who has no regrets and no regrets. Under their watchful eyes, Yu Hewei can walk on the right path of life and never forget his original intention.
