"With your appearance, what else can you shoot? You can act ugly when you act in sketches!"

16-year-old Ju Xingmao was once again rejected by the director.

Although he has a good starting point, he received a drama directed by , Li Shaohong, at the age of 9, and he was praised for his talent!

Why is it that I am growing up now and I am hitting walls everywhere and can’t get any show? Did Li Shaohua deceive him?

At this time, Ju Xingmao could not have thought that he would become a big director in 17 years and make a popular TV series!

How did this "ugly man" who is 1.6 meters tall, achieve a counterattack?

"5 Five Young Masters " Juxingmao

"There are temptations with delicious food and deceive the souls of some diners."

The "Five Young Masters" in the TV series " Soul Ferry " is the fifth son of the dragon - Taotie, who feeds on human souls.

He was wearing a suit and tie, looking gentle and scum, full of bad water;

, but he ran away in panic in the later stage and ran to the barbecue, he seemed selfish and shrewd, and very down-to-earth. It is hard to believe that the actor is not a professional, but just an airborne "relationship household". What is his background?

This man is named Ju Xingmao, he has a great background.

Not to mention just being a guest star as a supporting role, he can even speak up for the position of the male lead in the drama!

. This is because he is the director of this drama, and he has the final say in the entire crew!

Ju Xingmao "Jiu Director" has no hobbies on weekdays, he just loves acting!

is helpless because he has a bad appearance and cannot receive a show in other places, so he can only enjoy "adding the show" himself.

Superb acting skills, funny looks, and you don’t have a salary. I'm afraid that the "actor" like

is the only male protagonist who doesn't like him very much!

Even another director couldn't help but "accusing" Ju Xingmao:

"Your appearance is really too stolen. You look at it all on your face. No one cares about the male lead!"

supporting roles are so outstanding, so this drama is even more amazing!

If you want to talk about this drama, you are definitely the originator of online dramas! Although the crew has no big names, even director Ju Xingmao directed the drama for the first time...

, it was just such a "grassroots team" that had a total of 4.5 billion views, becoming the "ratings myth" at that time.

And all of this is thankful to a man, who has changed the lives of these people!

is both a "teacher" and a "friend"

If there was no director of Guo Jingyu , Ju Xingmao might have given up on the "acting arts circle" and returned to the countryside to farm!

's sentence sounds exaggerated, but in fact it is not exaggerated at all.

Because of his nine-year-old encounter, he received the role of "satisfied" and Ju Xingmao was taken on the path of "acting" by director Li Shaohong.

Ju Xingmao was born in a small mountain village in Shanxi Province. He has been unpleasant since childhood because of his appearance.

Dark face, a slit-sized eye, and you can see big buck teeth when you open your mouth. In the words of the villagers, "I have never seen such an ugly child."

But for director Li Shaohong, he was recognized for the first time!

"That's great, you are the one I've always found to be satisfied with!"

At that time, director Li Shaohong was filming " Bloody Morning " in Ju Xingmao's hometown. The original actor of the crew's "satisfied" role was not honest and natural enough, so she planned to start selecting people again.

At that time, all the children from all over the country were sent to audition, and Ju Xingmao did not miss it.

I thought I was just here to go shopping and get some candy, but I didn’t expect it to be recognized by director Li Shaohong.Ju Xingmao, who has always been inferior to himself, secretly swore in his heart that he would become an actor when he grows up and attract more attention!

But reality is often much crueler than imagined, especially in the entertainment industry where "looking at faces".

After graduating from junior high school, Ju Xingmao started his life in Beijing with his passion for "filming".

However, in a place like Beijing, it is difficult for an ordinary person like Ju Xingmao to make a breakthrough.

"Sorry, your image is not suitable", "Sorry, no," "Stop filming so ugly"... Because of your appearance, Ju Xingmao hits walls everywhere.

's refusal made Ju Xingmao realize that he was just lucky enough to hit the right role. In reality, there are not so many opportunities waiting for him!

But just when Ju Xingmao was disappointed and planned to go back to his hometown to celebrate his birthday, he met a noble man.

The two met on the crew of " Smiling Proud Wanderer ". At that time, Ju Xingmao made a guest appearance as "Tao Shixian".

At that time, Guo Jingyu was still an assistant director. Perhaps because of his "same illness and compassion", he noticed this little supporting role.

The two of them appreciate each other and agreed that they must cooperate if they make a comeback in the future. Unexpectedly, this wish will come true soon!

"Is Ju Xingmao? I'm Guo Jingyu. Is there a character here? Do you want to try it?"

After realizing the director's dream, Guo Jingyu was the first to think of his former partner, and he specially left him the role of "Laozi". Although

has few scenes, he has the opportunity to play against Sun Honglei , which is enough to show Guo Jingyu's good intentions.

not only satisfies my younger brother's desire to film, but also Guo Jingyu makes clear arrangements for his future development.

Guo Jingyu told Ju Xingmao that with his appearance and height, it is difficult to make a name for himself in the entertainment industry. If you have a pursuit, it is better to change your career and become a director.

Ju Xingmao obviously listened to the advice. He was admitted to the Director Department of Beijing Television in 2005 and began to work hard to be a director.

Seeing his younger brother so obedient, Guo Jingyu was also very pleased and began to "pave the way" for his younger brother again!

In 2014, Guo Jingyu seized the script of "Soul Ferry" and was ready to use this for Ju Xingmao to practice.

Supernatural horror themes, with little investment and no big-name actors. Such low-cost TV series are most suitable for new directors. Besides, he can help you out on the side.

"If you have any questions, come to me." Guo Jingyu's words are not empty words.

has a disagreement with the investor, so he came forward to mediate; there was not enough funds during the shooting, so he immediately took out his own assets and filled in! He paid too much for this show.

Fortunately, the result is good. This small script that was originally planned to let my good brother "do whatever he wants" turned out to be a big hit drama!

Ju Xingmao also took advantage of the victory and then released three sequels of "Soul Ferry", becoming the most promising director of the post-80s.

There is also the 2018 " Niangdao ", although the work is controversial. But from the perspective of popularity, it is undoubtedly a successful work.

The successive works are so successful, Ju Xingmao is also considered a "genius director"! However, the career has been solved, and it is time to consider the relationship.

Toads can also eat "swan meat"

The experience of the first year in the circle made Ju Xingmao feel inferior in terms of appearance.

He clearly knew that he was ugly and believed that no girl would like her "ugly monsters".

What's more, Ju Xingmao is only 1.6 meters tall. Under the popular remarks on the Internet that "boys are short at only 170 yuan in height", it seems even more "no one loves".

"The head is big, the chin is short, and the facial features are not distributed in harmony..." Ju Xingmao's appearance is overestimating him!

But how can such an "ugly man" marry a beautiful daughter-in-law like a flower?

Many people rumored that Ju Xingmao's wife is a person in the circle, called "Muxing District". The two met on the crew of " Iron Lihua " under the introduction of Guo Jingyu.

sounds like a nose and eyes, but when I saw the wedding scene, I found that this was not the case.

This bride named "Meng Jiaxin" is 15 years younger than Ju Xingmao.

When she filmed "Iron Pear Blossom" in 2008, she was just 12 years old, and it was obviously impossible for the two to be together. Therefore, she is not the "wife" rumored in the early days.

But a 26-year-old female college student married a 41-year-old director. The combination of

makes many people think that the woman is looking for the money and power of the "giant director", and everyone's worries are not unreasonable.

It turns out that the stage name of "Meng Jiaxin" is "Meng Jiuqi", and she is also a person in the circle.

She just starred in a sitcom in 2019, and then made a guest appearance in a spy war drama in 2021, and her resources are pretty good.

Therefore, many people also doubt whether this actress wants to "take the shortcut" and get to Ju Xingmao to obtain resources?

speculation is too one-sided. The staff who have worked with Meng Jiuqi praised her as a hard-working actress and believe that she is an actress who relies on her own strength to film.

Therefore, those "upper" guesses are nothing more than groundless.

What's more, at the wedding, Ju Xingmao also gave his wife enough face. Not only were there a golden carriage to pick up the bride, but there were also a yangko team with hundreds of people who welcomed each other, which attracted many onlookers to take photos and watch.

Ju Xingmao's various love wife performances also make us believe that this is a period because "love" is combined, not the so-called "matter".

What's more, although Ju Xingmao is not good-looking, he is a "young talent" in other aspects.

What Ju Xingmao praised the most was that he spent six years shooting six blockbusters, and each of them received great praise.

Among them, his most optimistic view is not "Soul Ferry", but a TV series called " The Most Beautiful Youth ".

This drama tells the story of 18 graduates using their youth to afforest the sand in Saihanba.

Because the entire film is filmed on the spot, the crew has also experienced many harsh conditions. Even Ju Xingmao, the "rural boy", couldn't help but complain. This was the most painful drama he had ever filmed.

Fortunately, the final result is gratifying. This drama not only successfully conveyed the spirit of " afforestation people", but also entered the prime time of CCTV.

uses unfamous actors. Make a surprise drama! Maybe this is the charming thing about Ju Xingmao.

Magnolia Best Director Award, 10 billion director, hundreds of millions of dollars in net worth...

Today's Ju Xingmao has long since faded from the titles of "ugly monster" and "the most ugly man in the entertainment industry". When talking about him, people think more about his works and talents.

16 and is now 41 years old.

After these 25 years of hard work, Ju Xingmao has changed from an "crazy clown" who is unwilling to the current "giant director".

Although he has never played the protagonist in a TV series, Ju Xingmao has long lived as the protagonist of his life.

Now he not only settled his home in Beijing, but also married a beautiful daughter-in-law. Do you envy such a life?

In your opinion, why did Ju Xingmao achieve a counterattack in his life? Do you envy him for his life like this?
