Sohu Entertainment Special Article (Shen Jiayi/Text) "Life Events" has been in theaters for four days, and the box office has exceeded 300 million. It is a veritable "dark horse" in the summer season.

starred in Zhu Yilong, becoming Mo Sanmei with dark skin, slovenly clothes, unshaven beard, and swearing words.

This subversive appearance and performance made the audience marvel at Zhu Yilong's changes, and his possibility as an actor was once again proven.

From the gentle young father-in-law in "Do You Know", to the enthusiastic and pure Lin Nansheng in " Rebel ", to the outgoing and warm third brother in " Life Events ".

Zhu Yilong has gone further and further on the road to being a capable actor.

Effectively "Transformed"

In 2018, Zhu Yilong became popular with the role of Shen Wei in "之神".

This low-cost online drama became a "big hit" that year, and Zhu Yilong was promoted to the "top class" with his acting skills that are as delicate as his eyes.

Many people thought that he became famous overnight. In fact, he was 30 years old at that time and had been in the industry for nearly 10 years. He had played many roles. Some people even asked on Zhihu: Why is Zhu Yilong not popular as an actor?

Before the word "fragmentation" became popular, Zhu Yilong played Fu Hongxue, a red-haired girl in black clothes in " New Border Town Prodigal Son ". His face was always pale and sickly on the way to revenge. He is still a beautiful, strong and miserable character loved by netizens of Bilibili. material.

During this period, he played Ying Ji in "The Legend of Mi Yue", Lian Chengbi in "New Xiao Shiyi Lang", and he also played the role of psychological counselor He Kaixin in "The Return of the Royal Sister".

After "The Soul", his acting career became even wider. When

was at its most popular, it was Qi Heng, the young master in "Know or Not", who took over. In fact, the character of this character was not likable in the later stage, but Zhu Yilong showed both Qi Heng's high-spiritedness in the early stage and his entanglement and loneliness in the later stage. For this reason, he was shortlisted for the Magnolia Award for Best Supporting Actor. After

, the character of Wu Xie in " Restart: Extreme Sea Tinglei " made many viewers think that he is Wu Xie's original character.

In this version, Wu Xie has lost his high-spirited spirit and is dying soon at the beginning. He has more understanding of life and the character's heart is more complex.

Although Zhu Yilong's logic in selecting roles has always been in the actor's mind, he is still labeled as "traffic" by most passers-by. Lin Nansheng's performance in "Rebel", made more viewers feel that he has begun to "transform successfully" "Yes.

"Rebel" is a suspenseful spy drama of the era, with many veteran actors joining the cast. The story has ups and downs and rigorous logic. It is a rare spy drama in recent years.

Zhu Yilong plays Lin Nansheng in it. He is not a typical hero. He is not heroic and invincible from the beginning, but gradually pulls out the path he wants to take through repeated attempts and betrayals, interpreting the growth process of a revolutionary. .

If the shadow of Zhu Yilong can still be seen in Lin Nansheng at certain moments, in "Life Events", it is to the extent that even fans cannot recognize it.

The "Third Brother" Mo Sanmei played by Zhu Yilong is different from the image he has created in the past. In addition to the difference in appearance, this character is more open-minded as a whole, which also allows him to develop some new performance modes.

Although Zhu Yilong seems to be transforming along the way, in fact he has never been stereotyped, and the character and temperament of the character are very different. This may also be the reason why he can "effectively transform" in the eyes of the audience.

Growth-oriented acting

Different roles allow the audience to see Zhu Yilong's plasticity, and the presentation of each role also allows the audience to see his growth in acting.

Mentioning Lin Nansheng in "Rebel", many viewers will recall several of his highlight scenes. He expressed Lin Nansheng's vulnerability, idealism and tenacity through different levels. When

faced the betrayal of the teacher who single-handedly promoted him, this was an important scene for him. He expressed the process of reshaping his self-values ​​in several stages.

The first stage is incredible. After being betrayed by a teacher he trusted, he would have self-doubt, his eyes would be empty, his eyes would look in various directions, wondering if this was true, wondering if there was a conspiracy behind it, and he would cry tears of fear and reluctance.

In the end, he finally realized that this was the truth, and what he needed was not sadness, but raising his head and wiping away the tears on his face. He had more important things to do, and he had to continue to complete the task. From this moment on, this character has a ruthless spirit.

Lin Nansheng is not as brave and majestic as imagined, and is even a little immature, but it is this sense of vulnerability that allows the audience to empathize with this atypical hero.

If to some extent Lin Nansheng and Zhu Yilong are looking for themselves in the role, then in Mo Sanmei, Zhu Yilong is looking for others in himself.

When Liu Jiangjiang, the director of "Life Events" met Zhu Yilong for the first time, he felt that they were far different from the three he imagined. They were two completely different people.

But when he cut his hair, put on three iconic outfits, and sent WeChat messages in Wuhan dialect without hesitation, the whole crew started calling him Third Brother. This was the right moment.

He forgot to bring a lighter when he was smoking, so he took the paper money directly from the brazier to borrow a fire. This detail laid three rough character foundations, and secondly, he essentially had no awe of " Baishi".

Later, when he met Xiaowen and walked into the stories of these family members, he had more respect for his profession and the deceased. When he worked again, he would hold the Buddha beads and worship devoutly.

The third brother’s crying scene in the movie is different in every scene.

For example, when he saw Xiaowen sitting on the roadside in the middle of the night, watching the stars and listening to his grandmother's voice, he looked at the sky and cried. On the one hand, he felt sorry for Xiaowen, and on the other hand, he was lamenting life. This cry was silent.

There was also a crying scene where Xiaowen got lost and found his way home. He was angry and worried at first, with tears in his eyes. Then when he heard Xiaowen said that his father was Mo Sanmei, he couldn't help it, and then The tears of sadness and joy rolled down, which directly sublimated the feelings.

During the interview, Zhu Yilong talked about "Mo Sanmei's challenge". He felt that the difficulty lies in how to turn himself into such a person.

Judging from the current results, he has already done it.

The "rebellious" actor

The popularity of "Soul" is due to the right time, place and people, which is difficult to copy. Popularity comes instantly. There is a lot of so-called overnight fame, but whether you can catch it or not depends on yourself.

After becoming popular, Zhu Yilong often mentioned anxiety in interviews, "I feel in my heart that my works are not enough. This is what I am very anxious about now. What is your so-called fame now, are your things enough to support these things?" ( From an interview with "People")

After that, he did not consume his popularity. His works are not many, but the roles are mostly different, and his dedication and exploration in acting can be seen.

The character Chen Yiming in " Dear Myself " is actually not very good in character. He is selfish and chauvinistic. Many young actors do not want to play similar roles, which will mostly affect their image off-screen.

But after thinking about it, Zhu Yilong decided to take on this role. He likes challenges and he does not need to be protected by the role, but he hopes to give new energy to the role.

As a "top streamer", he rarely does business. Apart from the promotion period, fans don't have much material to follow.

has hardly appeared in variety shows for so many years since his debut, and he does not share much about his life. In interviews, he talked more about his characters. Even fans said that he is a mysterious person.

He once said in an interview, "I don't have to tell others what kind of person I am. That's not important. What's important is that after you complete each work, they know what the character is like. To me, it's pretty good. "

It is this kind of "mystery" that makes him not always popular, but as an actor, this kind of mystery just gives him more possibilities in roles.

Zhu Yilong, who walked out of the third brother, left the third brother in the work, and he became that quiet, elegant and polite person again.

On stage, you are the character, and off stage, you are yourself. This is perhaps the best state of an actor.
