One day in November 2019, night fell, and a high-end cocktail party was held as scheduled. Famous actors and actresses attended the reception, big names such as forests, and the new generation Xiaohua Zhou Dongyu was also invited to attend.
Soon after Zhou Dongyu arrived at the reception, he met the actress and wife Tony Leung.
Seeing a veteran movie star at first sight, Zhou Dongyu nervously doesn’t know what to do. Who knows that Tony Leung and his wife took the initiative to say hello and suspected that they were asking Dongyu Zhou: starred in "Juvenile" When you", did you really shave your head?
The Young You mentioned by Mr. and Mrs. Liang Chaowei is exactly a hit movie that Dongyu Zhou participated in last year.
However, Dongyu Zhou here is totally different from the image in "The Love of Hawthorn Tree" that also made her famous.
One, a glimpse, it is the mou girl
In 2010, Zhang Yimou’s new work "The Hawthorn Tree Love" ushered in a great selection of the heroine Jingqiu. However, the casting this time was much more difficult than the director team imagined.
The director in charge of casting has watched all the small flowers in the film and television circle, as well as the girls in the performance department of major universities, but still can't choose an actor who fits Zhang Yimou's corner of Jingqiu.
In desperation, Zhang Yimou's team had to focus on selecting the heroine on the high school campus. At this time, Zhou Dongyu, who was in the third year of high school in a certain school, suddenly made Zhang Yimou's eyes shine.
At that time, Dongyu Zhou was simple, quiet and timid, like the Jingqiu that director Zhang Yimou was looking for.
Seeing Zhou Dongyu's first glance, Director Zhang Yimou made up his mind that the heroine of "The Hawthorn Tree" is her.
However, Zhang Yimou's arbitrariness this time has aroused many questions.
Other people in the director group were not optimistic about Zhou Dongyu. Even after the boot, there were staff members watching Zhou Dongyu secretly shaking their heads.
Tuyuan·Zhang Yimou Interview Record
The question of colleagues and friends, Zhang Yimou all resisted.
However, although Dongyu Zhou's image and temperament are very consistent with the heroine Jing Qiu, Dongyu Zhou has never had any shooting experience before and is completely a newcomer in the film.
How to make Zhou Dongyu complete the performance with high quality has become a new problem for Zhang Yimou.
Fortunately, Director Zhang Yimou has always been good at guiding actors. Before the filming started, Zhang Yimou provided professional training to Zhou Dongyu's situation, and specially took Zhou Dongyu to find the feeling of quiet autumn in the countryside.
When the filming officially started, Dongyu Zhou didn't even know what the basic boarding was.
Just when Dongyu Zhou looked ignorant and slightly flustered, Zhang Yimou told her, "Don't worry about these strange things, you only need to perform yourself, and firmly believe that each performance is the best. "
Director Zhang Yimou’s encouragement allowed Dongyu Zhou to regain his confidence in acting. It just so happens that the role setting in "The Hawthorn Tree Love" is a young girl. Dongyu Zhou has no acting style, but adds points to the role. A lot. After the film
was officially released, the audience's response was very enthusiastic. Many people think that Zhou Dongyu is clean and pure, and it is so vivid that Jingqiu is alive, and people can't help but think of a beautiful first love.
With the corner of Jingqiu, Zhou Dongyu successfully made it into the list of seeking girls, and won the 14th Huabiao Awards Outstanding New Actress Award and the 56th Spain Barrie in one fell swoop Many awards including the Best Actress Award at the Adoride International Film Festival.
can be said to have stood at the pinnacle of the film industry since his debut.
's great success makes many people envy Zhou Dongyu's good luck, but Zhou Dongyu's contribution to "The Hawthorn Tree Love" is rarely mentioned.
At first, Zhou Dongyu had to take the college entrance examination, but the exam time conflicted with the filming of "The Love of Hawthorn Tree". In order to shoot the film, Zhou Dongyu resolutely gave up the exam and silently embarked on the road to repeat reading.
When Dongyu Zhou was under pressure to film "The Hawthorn Tree Love", Zhang Yimou also encountered "complaints."
Just when the crew of "The Hawthorn Tree Love" entered Nortel's publicity, Nortel leaders also told Zhang Yimou face to face that Zhang Yimou had used all the actors in the drama for so many years, and he did not take care of his alma mater Nortel at all. .
The old leader’s slightly reproachful words made Zhang Yimou couldn’t help but jokingly say to Zhou Dongyu next to him: “You should report to Nortel for the college entrance examination next year, so I don’t need to say that my girl does not need Nortel. "
Who knows a joke, but it took root in Zhou Dongyu's heart. During the college entrance examination in the second year, Dongyu Zhou really had enough energy to think about Nortel.
But her scores in the college entrance examination were mediocre. Although she got on Nortel as she wished, there was a rumor that she walked through the back door.
Seeing that the rumors are getting bigger and bigger, Nortel Dean Zhang Huijun personally came forward to refute the rumors, claiming that he did not take special care of Zhou Dongyu’s identity as a girl.
But netizens still don't believe that Dongyu Zhou was admitted by himself. Some netizens even found a transcript with very low scores, stating that the above scores are Zhou Dongyu's real college entrance examination results.
There is no agreement between right and wrong. Ni Ni, another conspiracy girl, has also experienced such troubles as popular.
In 2009, Ni Ni became the heroine of the play "Jade Mo" through the casting of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".
Prior to this, Ni Ni was a student majoring in broadcasting and hosting and had no idea about film performance.
In order for Ni Ni to enter the role as soon as possible, Director Zhang Yimou had to teach Ni Ni to act a little bit.
Even Yumo's smoking posture and the swaying posture when walking in the play were taught to Ni Ni bit by bit. The training time lasted three years.
But Yumo's role is far from Ni Ni himself. Ni Ni filmed the first scene for three days.
In an opponent scene with Bell, Ni Ni was anxiously crying on the spot because she was unable to enter the role for a long time.
Just a little bit of feeling, NG again and again, Ni Ni finally completed the role of Yumo.
Those who have watched "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" are all impressed by Ni Ni's performance. The smoke and flames of a dusty woman and the sturdiness of the time when the national disaster was at stake were mixed in Yumo.
And Ni Ni, with her outstanding performance, conveyed all the temperament of this character to the audience in every move.
The superb acting skills also allowed Ni Ni to win multiple awards including the Best Newcomer Award at the 21st Asian Film Media Awards.
For a time, countless flowers and applause surrounded Ni Ni. It seems that the laurels of the first-line actresses are nothing to Ni Ni.
Who ever thought, but destiny made a joke with Ni Ni at this time.
After being crowned as a girl with "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", Ni Ni's career did not "blow out" as people thought, but entered a period of flatness.
Second, the original intention remains unchanged, the post-Zhang Yimou era
may want to try more challenges, or maybe want to broaden the play road, in short, after shooting "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", Ni Ni took over the style completely notThe same movie "Killing" plays the aloof beauty Jiang Yuee in it.
Unfortunately, this work failed to continue Ni Ni's previous glory.
Although the partner is the famous actor Liu Ye, the final Douban score is still only 5.2 points. Ni Ni Jiliuyong's acting career was cast over a faint haze.
In order to save the decline, Ni Ni took over the healing movie "Waiting for the Wind", but the film still received mediocre response.
and Ni Ni's subsequent participation in "The Year in a Hurry", "Bride Battle", "Tiansheng Long Song" and other ratings are even more unbearable.
even some netizens said that Ni Ni's performance in "Bride Fight" is not as good as Yang Ying, whose acting skills have been controversial.
The constant word-of-mouth hit the street, making the audience wonder: Ni Ni is not amazing in "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", why is it now spinning in bad movies?
Actually, not everyone has talent in acting. But Ni Ni’s tragedy is that not only does she have no talent, she is not from a professional class, and she relies too much on the director.
Zhang Yimou once said: "Dongyu Zhou will come to perform after it is set. Ni Ni has been training for nearly three years."
The world-class director, who has used it for nearly three years. It took a long time to create a jade ink. In a sense, the role of Yumo is the pinnacle of Ni Ni's acting skills.
In other words, Yumo's stunning is the overall energy of Zhang Yimou's team, not Ni Ni's work alone.
Ni Ni met the best director as soon as she debuted, played the best acting skills, and when she became famous, she also left her acting career for the audience. The impression of driving high and low.
But Ni Ni did not regress, she just used too much good luck at the beginning, so that now, she can't find the second Zhang Yimou temporarily.
Lost the director's blessings, Ni Ni can only act according to her own feelings, but she has no inherent talent, so the works are always tepid.
In Ni Ni's own words, it is: "I didn't have a background in acting. I can't perform a role that is too complicated."
When Ni Ni is confused and helpless, Zhou Dongyu is trying to tear off the label of Miao Girl.
A few years after "The Hawthorn Tree", Dongyu Zhou was stuck in the bottleneck of his acting career, and finally appeared in "Gongsuo Chenxiang", but netizens still left a message on Douban:
"Because Dongyu Zhou starred, so Resolutely 1 star! Where can she act! She looks so ugly!!"
After that, Dongyu Zhou appeared in "You at the same table", but still tepid until "July and Ansheng" The appearance of Zhou Dongyu made a beautiful turnaround.
In this film, Dongyu Zhou bravely walked out of the comfort zone and played Li Ansheng, who had a great contrast with his previous image.
She seems to have retrieved the aura from "The Love of Hawthorn Tree" and played Li Ansheng's quirky spirit into three parts.
And the film finally learned of the crying scene after his death in July, Zhou Dongyu advanced emotionally, first laughed and then cried to the final collapse, I don't know how many tears it earned the audience.
With this movie, Dongyu Zhou successfully became a representative figure of the new generation of Xiaohua born in the 90s after being sealed at the Golden Horse Awards.
Looking back at Ni Ni at this time, she started to talk about love.
When Zhou Dongyu’s news after the closure of Dongyu appeared on the entertainment headline with the lace news of Ni Ni’s love affair, people couldn’t help but sigh: the two people who are both conspiring girls are really different lives.
After winning the Golden Horse Award, Zhou Dongyu’s performanceThe road is like hanging up:
"Lie Sicily" won the 8th Macau International Film Festival Best Actress, "Later Us" won the Chinese Film Media Most Popular Actor Award and nominated for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Female The protagonist, even the occasional TV series "The Sparrow", is also very popular.
The young girl in "The Love of Hawthorn Tree" has gradually realized the true meaning of the performance.
Her acting skills are becoming more and more free, she can always bring the audience into the inner world of the characters without a trace, allowing the audience to feel the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the characters with her smiles and smiles.
But at this time Ni Ni is still curled up in her comfort zone.
The boyfriends next to him changed one after another, and the gossip headlines appeared time and time again. The reputation and audience fame accumulated during the period of seeking a girl was constantly consumed, but there was never an outstanding work that surpassed the "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".
has encountered bottlenecks in her acting career. Ni Ni did not work hard like Zhou Dongyu's acting skills, but it prompted her to enter the fashion field.
Dressing collocation, makeup skills, more and more appear in Ni Ni, she gradually became the cover girl of major publications, breaking a new sky.
When Ni Ni joined hands in fashion, Zhou Dongyu was also running hard.
In 2019, Dongyu Zhou, with a bold and avant-garde short hair image, participated in "Youth You". After the film was broadcast, the box office in Mainland China reached 1.545 billion yuan, triggering a wave of movie watching.
Relying on this hit movie, Dongyu Zhou has become a leading film figure in 2019.
For a while, the streets and alleys were everywhere admiring Zhou Dongyu's stunning short hair style and first-class acting voice in "Youth of the Youth".
Zhou Dongyu just tore off people's labels of "I can't leave Zhang Yimou" and "Can only play Jingqiu".
Nowadays, no one has talked about Zhou Dongyu’s past, people are just curiously looking forward to what miracles Zhou Dongyu will bring next time.
Time is not old, the original intention remains the same.
Zhou Dongyu has acted in bad movies and has been exposed to black material, but now she has walked out of all the haze, with superb acting skills and a three-point quiet autumn spirit, to announce to the world:
she She is not perfect, but she has been working hard; she has no talent, but is irreplaceable Zhou Dongyu.
Three, ten years in the film industry, the same people have different lives
It should be said that Zhou Dongyu and Ni Ni are both lucky. The identity of Mou girls has allowed them to surpass most of the actresses, and they have properly won on the starting line.
However, success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He. The identity of the Miao girl makes them very radiant, but it also makes them bear too much expectation. Every word and deed are examined under a magnifying glass.
This is doomed to the hardships of the stars after the two.
For a short period of confusion, others can have it, but they can't; if you miss a bad film, others can have it, but they can't. Who makes them a conspiracy girl.
But the competition in the entertainment industry has always been cruel.
Although the two have the golden signature blessing of the girl, how to make a world by themselves in the complicated film and television circle is still the common issue of the two.
The difference is that Zhou Dongyu had an epiphany in the tumultuous fight, and relied on the beautiful works to turn around and stood firmly among the first line of flowers.
and Ni Ni, lost in it, can only try to break new sky in other areas.
Two flowers bloom, one on each table. Speaking of the last, a simple sentence of not having life with others, I am afraid it is a solutionCan't explain the difference between the two.
