01
Born in 1954, he, like many old actors of that era, has no background, and only has a sincere heart in acting.
He joined the army when he was 19 years old and was admitted to the Kongzheng Art Troupe at the age of 23 and embarked on his path of acting.
He participated in his first work "Tian Shan Xing" in 1980, but this work did not cause him any disturbance in the entertainment industry.
really started to step into the works of the actor's altar step by step, starting from the "Lin Biao" he played in the "September 13 Incident". This work of
was also made in 1980, when he was only 26 years old that year, but he could already play a real role to the point where it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
is also this work, he won the highest honor "Plum Blossom Award" in theatrical performance.
Jiao Yulu, who he played in "Jiao Yulu" in 1990, is also a live-action documentary character. This work opened the milestone beginning of his acting career.
With this work, he won the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award.
was on the podium at the time, he said, "Both suffering and tiredness have made the good man Jiao Yulu suffer, and the fame and fortune have made the silly boy Li Xuejian win."
In and out of the play, he knows exactly where he should stand, and he always has his original intention to do what he should do.
In the same year, his "Song Dacheng" starred in the TV series "Aspiration" won the Feitian Award and the Golden Eagle Award again.
His acting skills are obvious to all. Many of his works have become classic film and television works. From "China Track", "New Shanghai Beach" to "Heshan", he used one work to make himself a hot acting at the time. Send actors.
In 2016, he was already a "press play" in the TV series "Young Marshal", and he didn't want to steal the protagonist from the limelight, and he played "Zhang Zuolin", still became the most outstanding role in this work.
"There will be no more Zhang Zuolin after Li Xuejian", this sentence is enough to explain his superb acting skills.
also relied on this play, and he won the "Best Performing Art Award" awarded to him by the Golden Eagle Award.
is just, who could have imagined that he, who is already on the showbiz world, once suffered from cancer and had to worry about medical expenses.
In 2000, when he was filming "China Orbit", his body was worsening every day, and he felt the pain from his body more and more obviously.
was only at that time, he didn't want to delay the progress of the entire crew because of his own business. For him, acting is his life.
So he still followed the crew to Xi'an to shoot.
Later, his health was getting worse and worse. His wife was worried and dragged him to the hospital for examination.
Li Xuejian, who always thought it was just a minor illness, was told that he had nasopharyngeal cancer and needed immediate hospital treatment.
, who was already clearly unwell at the time and learned that he was suffering from cancer, still insisted that he be treated after the shooting.
At that time, the crew of "China Track" had been half shot, and because of the characteristics of the film, people from the army were also called. After the
crew knew his condition, they were ready to stop work.
but he said, "If I live but the scene is not filmed well, then I might as well die."
In desperation, his wife Yu Haidan had no choice but to agree to his request for conservative treatment while continuing to film.
During that time, he lived two kinds of life in one day. He was a cancer patient in the morning, but he was dedicated to playing in the afternoon. After the filming of
was finally finished, it was already difficult for him to even stand up. Only then did he start his real anti-cancer road.
remembered that time, he only felt that life is better than death, and once wanted to give up treatment.
is just the reason why he wants to give up treatment, except one is that the treatment is too painful, and the other is that it costs too much.
Although he has been in the industry for decades, he also has a high status, but in fact, in the 90s when his career was the most prosperous, the actor's salary was far worse than it is now.
And the most profitable in the entertainment industry is not acting, but advertising.
However, Li Xuejian refused to accept it. He only accepted an advertisement for throat lozenges. Later, he felt that the advertisement would affect the viewer's intuitive experience when watching his own work.
So he never accepts commercials anymore, what he wants to do is a drama, not a profitable star.
And along the way, his wife Yu Haidan will always support him no matter what he does.
Yu Haidan is also an actor. He and her met in the drama troupe.
In the beginning, Yu Haidan was the heroine, and he was her supporting role.
He and Yu Haidan met Yu Weimo, and there were flowers and thorns along the way, but Yu Haidan remained with him as before.
In 1983, he married Yu Haidan. Now 37 years later, his wife has become his assistant, and he takes his wife wherever he goes to film.
And he was also on the road to fight cancer with his wife. After fighting for 13 years, he finally defeated the disease and recovered his health.
Although his hearing was affected due to the operation, he needed to wear a hearing aid.
is accompanied this way, which makes the relationship between him and his wife even more precious.
is now 56 years old. His son has grown up to become a talent. He and his wife have been with him for 27 years. The family is happy. He has also overcome the illness and continues to advance in the acting career.
All this is because of his original intention and sincerity.
