Do you believe you know the actors in the photo below?
Then who is this photo? Are these two the same person?
Smart you must have an answer. If I ask this, I will definitely not be alone. Yes, the picture above is Gu Zhixin , and the picture below is Wang Lei . And because of their facial features and temperament, they are always confused by many.
Gu Zhixin was well-known to the audience for participating in " I am a special forces soldier " as Zhuang Yan , while Wang Lei was well-known to people for starring in "Golden Wedding" and " Battle Flag ". He played the simple and diligent Sun Shaoan in " Ordinary World ", and also established his acting position.
Gu Zhixin and Wang Lei are the senior brothers of Central Opera . The two have always been mistaken for being the same person because of their similar appearance. What I know better is Wang Lei. I have watched him without drama. "Ordinary World" is a classic work that I have watched three times.
Wang Lei was born in Dalian City, Liaoning Province. His father is a businessman and his mother is a dancer. Wang Lei's mother is very beautiful. She once appeared on CCTV variety shows. Wang Lei's appearance follows his mother. She looks very upright and full, and her face is full of integrity. She looks like a good face at first glance.
I have watched many scenes of Wang Lei. He partnered with Miao Yiyi and , and "Battle Flag" partnered with Wang Yuanke and . These dramas had very good ratings at the time. What surprised me the most was that he also collaborated with Ada Choi . He played a couple and could even perform a CP sense. I was convinced by them. From the impression, the two of them were not the same, and this is probably the ability of a good actor.
The character I like most is Sun Shaoan in "Ordinary World". He is poor but not humble, poor but not humble, and is self-respecting but not as stubborn as his younger brother. He can be a representative of Chinese male farmers during the reopening period of the 1980s. He is generous, kind, brave, and responsible. More importantly, he is not only diligent, but also wise, visionary and courageous.
Just released the trailer of "Ordinary World" says that Li Xiaomeng also participated in the role. The couple appeared in the same drama together, so they had to play a couple or a couple.
I thought they would play Sun Shaoping and Tian Xiaoxia . As a result, when the drama came out, I found that they did not play a couple or a couple. Wang Lei played Sun Shaoan, and Li Xiaomeng played Tian Xiaoxia. Judging from the results presented, the director's arrangement is very appropriate. If Li Xiaomeng plays Runye, it will not be in line with Runye's gentle and persistent feeling. She is more suitable for Tian Xiaoxia, who dares to love, hate and opens up the bright ones.
"Ordinary World" is a rare masterpiece in recent years, with the grudges of wealthy families, power struggles, and palace fighting. Although the drama has been criticized by many original fans after it was broadcast, as a fan of the original works, I can accept the adaptation of the drama. As long as the core and ideological nature are still there, and the actors' interpretation is in place, I think it is worthy of praise.
Wang Lei also played Sun Shaoan, a character who should have been weaker than the protagonist Sun Shaoping, the first protagonist, and Sun Shaoping, played by Yuan Hong , was criticized as the only failure in the play.
I have watched this drama three times. Yuan Hong's presence is indeed as good as Sun Shaoanqiang, but I personally think that in addition to being easily out of the drama in terms of lines, there is basically no problem in performance. Moreover, the screenwriter seems to have leaned the storyline of the entire drama towards Sun Shaoan, which weakened the play of the real protagonist Sun Shaoping, which made Yuan Hong's performance even more difficult.
All the actors in the crew of "Ordinary World" put in their efforts and concentrated on living in rural Shaanxi in advance for more than three months. They studied Shaanxi dialect. Although they were not very standard, they could still cope with the imagination of many non-Shaanxi locals.
Wang Lei confirmed his acting skills with the role of Sun Shaoan. Perhaps because he looks more righteous, most of the dramas he takes on are military themes. People are very strange. Such a good actor and handsome appearance, why isn't he popular? But as long as you observe slowly, you will find that there is such a type of actor who is not very popular. Actors such as Chen Baoguo , Wang Zhiwen , Li Baotian have never been idol actors since they were young, but when they appear, you always feel that the quality of the drama must be guaranteed. Wang Lei may be such an actor. He may not be very popular, but his works are rarely bad dramas.
Actors like them may be more likely to calm down and study their acting skills without being disturbed by other things. A good actor does not have to be too popular. Sometimes maintaining a certain sense of mystery is more conducive to the actor's career. Too frequent appearances will make people tired of watching and become aesthetically fatigued.
A audience cares more about the actors' ability to shape characters, rather than whether they are famous or not, because they are actors, not stars.
