has attracted widespread attention since its filming and casting in 2007. The new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" directed by Li Shaohong was broadcast in 2010. Although the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has beautiful pictures and exquisite costumes, it still fails to surpass the audience's recognition and love for the 1987 version of "Dream of Red Mansions".
Especially in the selection of actors, there are more criticisms than praise. However, 12 years after the show was broadcast, the small supporting actors in the show have now become the mainstay of the entertainment industry, and have even become the top star.
It has to be said that director Li Shaohong had a very good vision for selecting people back then. But what is unexpected is that the two starring actors have always been lukewarm and are still no one cares about them. Next, let’s take a look at the current situation of these 12 actors.
1 Yang Mi act Qingwen
007, 21-year-old Yang Mi graduated from the
05 performance department of the Beijing Film Academy
5th grade. It is still 4 years before she was broadcasted. Although she joined the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" this year, she is not a pure newcomer, but compared to her current reputation, she is just an ordinary actor.
In the play, Yang Mi plays the maid Qingwen, and she doesn’t have many scenes. While filming the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", Yang Mi also received an invitation from the crew of "Legend of Sword and Fairy III". At first, director Li Shaohong refused to let go. After repeated discussions, "Xianxia III" "borrowed" Yang Mi, and played Xiyao and Xuejian one by one in his play.
Results "Xianxia III" was broadcasted one year earlier than "Dream of Red Mansions". Xue Jian, played by Yang Mi, was highly recognized by game fans and also welcomed the love of countless viewers.
On the contrary, after the broadcast of "Dream of Red Mansions", Qingwen played by Yang Mi received mediocre response.
Just one year after the broadcast of "Dream of Red Mansions", Yang Mi welcomed the hit drama "Palace Lock Heart Jade". He was promoted to a popular young actress in one fell swoop, and since then he developed better and better, and soon he firmly occupied the top spot. Until now, she has always been very popular and has firmly taken the position of a first-line actress.
2 Zhao Liying decoration Xing Xiuyan
006, Zhao Liying entered the entertainment industry because she won the talent show. When she filmed the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" in 2007, she was just 20 years old and was still an unknown young actor, and she was a real newcomer. The number of appearances she played Xing Xiuyan in the play is limited, and even a few scenes flashing by, she is a perfect role.
At that time, Zhao Liying's face was slightly fat, and her round face was not particularly conspicuous among the actresses. Therefore, after the show was broadcast in 2010, it did not bring any major changes to Zhao Liying's acting career. At most, it would be considered a familiar face.
However, in 2011, she played the role of Qing'er in "The New Condor Heroes", and she became familiar with the audience with important roles.
Two years later, Zhao Liying, who has played supporting roles for several years, played the heroine Lu Zhen for the first time in 2013's " Legend of Lu Zhen ", playing the role of a generation of female prime minister Lu Zhen, and she was truly popular.
And two years later, the 2015 " Flower Thousand Bones " made Zhao Liying famous, and it can be said that it became popular all over the country. Successfully entered the ranks of front-line actresses.
Since then, " Chu Qiao's Legend ", " Knows whether it should be green, fat, red, thin ", "You Fei", "Who is the Murderer" and other dramas are all popular.
Today, Zhao Liying is firmly among the top stars, is recognized as the queen of ratings, and her acting skills are also recognized by everyone. "Happiness to Ten Thousand Homes" starring her is currently on the air. She plays the role of He Xingfu in the play, which is expected to help Zhao Liying's acting career reach a new level.
3 Yang played by Jia Baoyu (adult)
007, the crew of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" selected 15 candidate actors from the People's Liberation Army Academy of Art. At that time, Yang Yang, who was about to graduate, was among them. After professional training, he finally became the actor of the adult Jia Baoyu in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", and thus entered the film and television industry.
In addition, the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" has a total of 50 episodes, and the young Baoyu accounted for more than 30 episodes. The adult Baoyu didn't even have half of the scenes, so everyone's attention at that time was focused on the young Jia Baoyu portrayed by Xiaotong, so Yang Yang's presence was basically not left.
This year, Yang Yang was 19 years old, and the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" failed to make him famous. The years after
can be said to be Yang Yang's time for supporting roles. It was not until 2015 that the popular IP " Tomb Raiders' Chronicles " was released, and Yang Yang became quite popular with the role of Zhang Qiling.
Then, starting with "A Smile Is Beautiful", Yang Yang has many high-quality movies and TV series released and broadcasts, each of which has accumulated a lot of praise and popularity for himself. He became famous for a while, and he and Wu Moufan, Luhan , Li Yifeng were called the "four major traffic" in the entertainment industry.
By 2020, Yang Yang was invited by his elder brother Jackie Chan to shoot the movie " Pioneer ". Undoubtedly, he has been promoted to the top spot among the younger generation of male artists.
Now some of the "four major traffic volumes" have completely lost their temper, and Lu Han also lacks momentum, only Li Yifeng and Yang Yang have been filming diligently. As the saying goes, the big waves wash away the sand. Yang Yang, who is just 31 years old this year, can be said to be quite promising in the future. Especially this year's "Special Battle Glory" and "Try the World" have shortcomings, but they have also raised Yang Yang's acting career to a new level.
4 Yu Xiaotong played Jia Baoyu (Young)
As the saying goes, you are not afraid of not knowing people, you are afraid of comparing people.
also plays Jia Baoyu. Yu Xiaotong, who played the teenager Jia Baoyu, received more attention than Yang Yang, who played the adult Jia Baoyu, and the prospects are even brighter.
2 years ago, the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast, no matter what its reputation was, it could not be denied that it was a highly anticipated highlight. It is normal for actors to follow the movie, especially the role of Jia Baoyu, which is the focus. The actor Yu Xiaotong, who plays him, is also a focus actor with a high starting point.
In 2007, he also studied at the Affiliated High School of Beijing Dance Academy. At the age of 13, he was selected by the great director Chen Kaige and played the young Mei Lanfang in the movie " Mei Lanfang ".
In 2008, with the release of the movie, Yu Xiaotong was immediately attracted by director Li Shaohong and appointed him to play the young Jia Baoyu in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions". Two years later, the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" will be broadcast. Although he is not a professional acting career, the aura of the character and his aura are highly expected by people in the circle for his potential.
So, a series of best newcomer awards, the most popular and most promising newcomer awards came one after another. Yu Xiaotong, who was only 16 years old, was definitely successful in her youth. Just as the audience was surprised and imagined that with such a starting point, the boy would be very amazing in the future, he was stunned by the series of operations that Yu Xiaotong played a good hand of cards.
First of all, he did not choose to apply for Beijing Film Academy or Central Academy of Drama to study performance after becoming famous, but instead took the middle school degree from Beidian Affiliated High School and immediately chose to go on variety shows to start in the entertainment industry. It's like an ignorant boy who directly breaks into the most humane adult world. So the immature mentality and emotional intelligence that have not yet been practiced are completely exposed to the public's attention.
In 2014, Yu Xiaotong and Yang Yang participated in a variety show "Star Soldier Report". In the program, four people, including them, only received tear gas punishment for three masks, and each person needed to take turns using the mask. As a result, Yang Yang gave up his mask to his teammates, and for some reason no one rotated the mask to Yang Yang again. When the program team noticed something was wrong and pulled Yang Yang out of it, they were already choked and had difficulty breathing and vomiting. It is said that Yang Yang also had a cough problem.
Afterwards, many fans questioned that Yu Xiaotong did not help his friend Yang Yang in time. Yu Xiaotong responded that her vision was disturbed at that time and she could not tell the direction, and she didn't know where Yang Yang was. Of course, to be honest, you can't blame Yu Xiaotong for this matter, but it is undeniable that it has brought him a considerable negative impact.
If the above thing is an unintentional mistake and brings a bad impression on him, then it can only be said that Yu Xiaotong has not learned a lesson at all, but has become more reckless, confirming the outside world's view of his "giant baby".
In the variety show " Perfect Summer ", Jin Chen personally revealed that he had ridden a horse with Yu Xiaotong in the previous "The Fancy of Journey". Without Jin Chen's preparation, Yu Xiaotong slapped the horse's butt and shouted "Driving", which caused the horse to be frightened and caused Jin Chen to fall off the horse's back.
Fortunately, Jin Chen used "terrible" to describe that experience in the show and "specially owe" to describe Yu Xiaotong's naughty behavior. It is conceivable how much psychological shadow the horse fall incident has for her. Of course, this is not the first time Yu Xiaotong, nor is it the last time that he is so "remitting" and "down" behavior. These things have also made netizens and audiences' favorability for him continue to decline. In addition, as he became an adult, he really has no commendable work.
In recent years, he has been able to spend time on variety shows, and he has not restrained his bad temper at all. In " Supernova Games ", Yu Xiaotong angrily threw her equipment and acted very manic.
Later, with his relationship with Chen Xiaoyun, , it seemed that the popularity of the popularity was warming up. As a result, when recording "The Boy in My Family", Xiaotong discovered that there was a "mysterious" playlist on her phone at that time, and she insisted on looking at Chen Xiaoyun's mobile phone. After Chen Xiaoyun refused, she parked her car on the side of the road and became irritable in the street, and she cried her girlfriend Chen Xiaoyun in anger.
After the show was broadcast, the two of them also officially announced their breakup. We don’t know the specific reasons, but we all have one feeling, that is, if Yu Xiaotong’s temper remains unchanged, it will be difficult for him to grow in the future. Now 28-year-old Yu Xiaotong has been 12 years since the movie "Dream of Red Mansions" that has attracted widespread attention and demonstrated her spiritual energy. Compared to other actors in this drama, they really play a good hand of cards.
5 Huang Xuan plays Xue Ke
If Yu Xiaotong plays a good hand and is not bad with one hand, then Huang Xuan is a bad hand, but it is not a good hand and plays quite wonderfully. I don’t know how many viewers still remember Xue Ke, the brother of Xue Baoqin, played by Huang Xuan, in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions". Because in the whole drama, the character Xue Ke has not appeared for much time, but Huang Xuan's scholarly temperament leaves a certain impression on people.
That year, Huang Xuan was 20 years old and was a newcomer who had just entered the entertainment industry. He participated in the actor talent show of Beijing TV station " Dream of Red Mansions " and won the top five in Baoyu group, thus entering the crew of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions". But until the show was broadcast, Huang Xuan didn't pay much attention. It can be said that if it weren't for Huang Xuan's popularity and receiving much attention now, no one might know that he had acted in this drama.In the years after the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", Huang Xuan had no influential film and television works. In 2014, the TV series " Red Sorghum " starring Zhou Xun and Zhu Yawen was broadcast. In that year, Huang Xuan played the second male lead in the play and became famous with Jiuer's childhood sweetheart Zhang Junjie. From then on, Huang Xuan also ushered in the explosion of his acting career.
015's " Miyue Legend ", he played the first lover of Miyue , the gentle and jade-like Chu State Gongzi Chunshen Jun Huang Xie, this drama made Huang Xuan completely popular.
Later, she collaborated with Yang Mi on " Dear Translator " and switched to the big screen to participate in " Great Wall " directed by Zhang Yimou , starring in "Youth" directed by Feng Xiaogang and " Demon Cat Story " directed by Chen Kaige.
In 2021, he became popular for his successful role as Ma Defu in the TV series " Mountains and Seas ", so he won numerous awards for his role and was nominated for the Best Actor Award at the 27th Shanghai TV Festival and the Magnolia Award.
After that, Gao Bingzhu played in "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" was also quite successful, which also made everyone see that Huang Xuan's acting path is very wide. There is another movie "The Legend of Apocalypse" that has been completed. Now at the age of 37, he plays the male lead, Chu Sijing, the Jinyiwei.
The drama is directed by " Embroidered Chun Dao ", " Assassination of the Novelist " and "The Wind Rises Longxi". It tells the story of Lu Yang , which is raging in strange diseases outside the pass of Liaodong during the Tianqi period at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the Jinyiwei Chu Si went north alone to investigate. It is speculated that it may be a fantasy masterpiece involving the theme of "zombies" and has the potential to hit the show.
6 Li Qin Ornaments Xue Baochai (Young)
Li Qin's hometown is the birthplace of Kunshan, Suzhou, Jiangsu. At the age of 11, she was training in the opera interest class. In 2004, 14-year-old Li Qin was admitted to the Opera School affiliated to Shanghai Theater Academy to study Kunqu Opera.
In 2008, Li Qin, who was still in school, was spotted by director Li Shaohong, and played the young Xue Baochai in the play.
The drama was broadcast in 2010. This role also gave Li Qin an opportunity to enter the entertainment industry, allowing her to play Yang Kaihui in "The Founding of the Party" in 2011, and was nominated for the Best Newcomer Award at the 31st Popular Film Hundred Flowers Awards for this role. In the same year, she played Yang Kaihui again in the TV series "China 1921". This also gave Li Qin a very high starting point in her acting career.
After several years of acting training, in 2015, she successfully played the tragic character Tian Xiao'e in the TV series "White Deer Plain" and was recognized by the audience.
In 2017, with the broadcast of "The Legend of Chu Qiao" and " Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace ", Li Qin's career also began to improve greatly. In the same year, she once again played Yang Kaihui in the movie "The Founding of the Army". Being able to play this important role many times shows that Li Qin is very good in terms of appearance, acting skills and reputation.
In recent years, Li Qin has participated in the movies "The Captain of China" and "The Doctor of China".
TV series "Qing Yu Nian" and many other important works. She is 32 years old this year and is considered the best-developed girl.
7 Bai Bing Decorated by Xue Baochai (adult)
006, 20-year-old Bai Bing signed a contract with Emperor Star Art after participating in CCTV's "Dream China". The next year, he made his mark in the movie "Love Call Transfer".
In the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", she was not a pure newcomer like Yang Mi at that time, but she was still young. In 2010, when the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast, another TV series "Myth" starring Bai Bing was also aired this year. The two dramas were broadcast one after another to win her high popularity. Compared to the character of adult Xue Baochai, Bai Bing's role as Princess Yushutuan impressed everyone more.
appeared in the subsequent movies "New Shaolin Temple", "Secret Marriage Men and Women", "Reverse War", "Twelve Zodiac Signs", and "One Man's Martial Arts". Although they are supporting roles, the directors they work with are all famous directors, and the actors are also first-line stars such as Nicholas Tse, Andy Lau, , Donnie Yen, Jackie Chan.
It can be seen that Bai Bing is highly praised by the Emperor and his resources are so good that they are against the sky. Both his own conditions and background are quite promising. It’s a pity that Bai Bing decisively chose to get married during the rising period of his acting career. Marriage and family life made her unable to strike while the iron was hot in her acting career, so she went further.
Bai Bing has been acting all the time over the years, but unfortunately he has not produced any major works or roles. In 2020, Bai Bing revealed that he had divorced her husband in "Sisters Riding the Wind and Waves", and said: "Many people think I am a rich wife who is pampered and generous, and I feel very wronged." This made everyone know that her marriage life was not particularly smooth.
I hope that now at the age of 36, she will return to the audience's horizon, be wholeheartedly devoted to her career, and strive for a turning point in her acting career.
8 Xu Lu acted as Xue Baoqin (Youth)
008, Xu Lu, who was only 14 years old, played the young Xue Baoqin in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions". This drama opened the door to entering the film and television industry for her who was still studying at the People's Liberation Army Art Academy at that time.
In 2012, Xu Lu made her debut with the role of Zhen Huan's sister Zhen Yurao in "The Legend of Zhen Huan".
Then he played the role of the thrush in the web drama "Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Yellow Skin Tomb".
plays Su Yuning in "The Legend of the Sea".
plays Yan Yuhuan in " Chang'an Twelve Hours ".
plays the heroine Gu Xiaomeng in the spy drama "The Sound of the Wind".
has gained wider attention as it has performed well in many popular dramas. Recently, she collaborated with Zhu Yawen and Janice Man. Cao Dun, the new TV series "The Thirteen Tours of Guangzhou" by "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", has been announced to be completed. At the age of 28, she is in the rising period of her acting career and her future is promising.
9 Song Yi acted as Xiangling
The new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is also Song Yi's debut work. In 2007, Song Yi, who was 18 years old at the time, was still in the Central Academy of Drama and was selected by the crew, but the school stipulated that students were not allowed to take on roles before the junior year. Song Yi had no choice but to give up this opportunity.
Fortunately, the filming cycle of this drama was very long. When she became a junior, the crew looked for her again. This time, Song Yi finally starred in the drama as she wished and officially entered the entertainment industry. After graduation, Song Yi was admitted to the Beijing People's Art Theater and settled himself through stage dramas, so there were not many opportunities to show her face on the screen at that time.
Until 2015, the TV series "The Pretender" she collaborated with Hou Ge, Jin Dong, Wang Kai and others premiered. She attracted attention for her role as Yu Manli in the play.
In 2019, the broadcast of "Qing Yu Nian", Fan Ruoruo, the number one talented woman in Kyoto, made Song Yi's fame again.
In 2021, the costume business war drama " Son-in-law " starring her and Guo Qilin was a great success. Now, the 33-year-old Song Yi is becoming more and more popular.
0 Kan Qingzi plays Musk Moon
In the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", Kan Qingzi plays another eldest maid of Jia Baoyu, "Musk Moon".
Kan Qingzi, who was 20 years old at the time, was still quite immature. A year later, she also collaborated with Zhao Liying in the same group for the second time and starred in the role of "Xingrong Princess" in "New Return of the Condor Heroes".
Later, Kan Qingzi starred in many TV series, but she was still lukewarm. Her relationship with model Ji Lingchen in 2015 and her role as the female agent Li Xiaonan in the TV series " Sparrow ", increased her popularity a lot.
In 2017, the couple was invited to join the variety show "Dear Inn" and soon announced their breakup. Since then, Kan Qingzi has been focusing on acting. There are many works and many variety shows, but there is only a big hit drama for the heroine. I hope that at the age of 34, she will welcome such a masterpiece as soon as possible.
1 Yao Di Ornaments Wang Xifeng
If it were not for the well-known thing, Yao Di should have been one of the best-developed actresses among the new people discovered in the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" that year.
In 2007, 25-year-old Yao Di won the first place in the Baochai group in the talent show of "Dream of the Red Chamber", which was considered to be a relatively high-profile group among the newcomers at that time. It was even rumored that she would play " Lin Daiyu ". The final role of Wang Xifeng is also remarkable.
In 2011, just one year after the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions" was broadcast, Yao Di ushered in a small peak in his acting career and starred in the TV series " Naked Marriage Era ".
Then, she participated in or starred in a series of TV series such as " Beijing Youth ", "33 Days of Love Break", "New Age of Love", " Love Mission: Impossible ", and her popularity remains unabated. If your career had not been completely stagnated, you would have a very likely chance of becoming a TV series queen.
In the past two years, Yao Di has slowly begun to show signs of a comeback, but the trend is hopeless, and the public's acceptance is not high, so it seems that it cannot cause any waves. It was originally a crafty material, but it would be a pity that a love affair ended like this.
2 Jiang Mengjie Adored by Lin Daiyu
debuted and then took the "downhill road". graduated from Beijing Dance Academy Ballet majoring in Jiang Mengjie is such a typical example.
Because Lin Daiyu was created by Chen Xiaoxu was so successful, the news that Jiang Mengjie wanted to play Lin Daiyu was criticized by all parties as soon as the news was made public, her temperament, makeup, hairstyle, etc.
But as the saying goes, black and red are also red. For Jiang Mengjie, as soon as she debuted, she was the heroine of the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions", which can be said to be a very high starting point. But unexpectedly, these doubts were the time when Jiang Mengjie was the most concerned as an actor.
But the drama after that was a bit unsatisfactory, most of them were supporting roles. In 2017, she played the role of the female No. 2 undercover policeman in the movie "The Huge Call", which made people shine. But after that, there were no good scripts and good roles, and even if the acting skills were good, it would be useless.
Jiang Mengjie has been acting all the time, but there is no work that has become popular, and there is almost no major role. With the emergence of a large number of newcomers in the entertainment industry, if there are no good resources in the later stage, it may be really a mess. Such a high opening and low opening is also a pity.
In short, 12 years have passed since the new version of "Dream of Red Mansions". For the above 12 new actors who were newcomers back then, there is still potential in terms of age, experience, and the development of current film and television dramas. Who can stand out? Who will turn the tables against the wind? It’s hard to say, so who is the development that everyone is most optimistic about? Please leave a message in the comment area.
