"When a young man in a fresh clothes and angered horse, he knows that he lives up to his youth." The fifth prince Yongqi, who was riding the horse in the world and was full of energy, was the "white moonlight" in the hearts of countless viewers.

China News Service, Beijing, September 28 (Liu Yue) For most viewers, the last time the name "Zhang Rui" was mentioned was during the broadcast of " New Condor Heroes " in 2011. "When a young man was young, he lived up to his youth and knew that he was going to be young." The young man who was strolling the world and was full of energy, Yongqi was popular among thousands of girls back then, and was the "white moonlight" in the hearts of countless audiences.

After 11 years, the role of "Yu Mo" in the popular fairy tale drama "Agarwood and Shards" during the summer season has brought Zhang Rui back to the audience's sight. With the spread of keywords such as Zhang Rui's manners, Zhang Rui's fighting scenes, and Zhang Rui's cry scenes, he gained the second high attention since his debut.

originally planned to leave the circle after finishing the "Yu Mo"?

In "Agarwood So Shards", Yu Mo is the only bloodline of the nine fins of the ancient master of the four seas. The sky is a dragon, the sea is a fish, the poison is not invaded, and the water and fire are not extinguished. For the heroine Yan Dan, he cut the horns of dragons and split the sky, chased from the sky to the earth, and guarded for eight hundred years.

"Yu Mo has always protected his lover, but he cannot love him. His feelings are worthy of respect, because 'not breaking through the rules', he loves someone without breaking through any bottom line. He does not fight or scramble. Even if Yan Tan chooses to be with others in the end, as long as she is happy, he can still be happy."

is deeply in love, but burys love in his heart. Such behavior makes the audience feel a little disappointed. During the broadcast of the show, Zhang Rui set up an automatic reply on Weibo, "Since you are following me, can you lend your mouth to Yu Mo for use?"

"Great injustice, big confusion, no mouth", Zhang Rui laughed and cunningly reviewed the character of "Yu Mo": "His mouth is too stupid. Everyone knows that I have played the fifth prince and Qi Fei, and I am better able to say that if I could borrow the fifth prince or Qi Fei's mouth to use it, this matter would have been a result of a long time ago."

, such a deep affection and silence that crosses the three realms, made many viewers who called Yu Mo off-screen. At the same time, Yu Mo's smooth fighting scenes and his classical demeanor have also become popular, making Zhang Rui's popularity soar. But few people know that "Yu Mo" was probably the last role in his acting career.

"I once thought that after this drama is broadcast, if it is recognized by everyone, I will continue to work in this industry. If it does not meet expectations, I may change careers."

Silence is a life experience. Rising up means unwilling to give up

"If you can say something to Zhang Rui 10 years ago, what do you want to say the most?"

"Brother, don't hold a concert for now. You can open it anytime in a few years. If you open it at that time, you will be ruined."

"The result is really ruined." Zhang Rui smiled and said: "It's okay. If you don't have those life experiences, I might have been drifting away now."

"New Return of the Condor Hero" brought a group of main creators into the mainstream vision. At that time, Zhang Rui became a hit and entered the position of a new first-line young actor in the mainland. However, when he debuted as a singer, he did not strike while the iron was hot and continued to act, but chose to release an album and hold a concert. There has been no filming for a year and no filming for two years. During this period, the mainland film and television industry has undergone earth-shaking changes. The consequence of the work not keeping up in time is that it quickly falls from the first echelon.

"I have been paying this debt for so many years, paying different prices, and I have always hoped to return to the mainstream vision."

"There are also selective mistakes in the middle. There was a play that came to me, but for various reasons, I chose another work." During that time, he seemed to be rarely favored by the goddess of luck: "Everyone knows that the drama became popular after the broadcast, and it was a ceiling-level drama. I was exposed to the best character in it."

threw the stone into the well, but there was no ripple. For an actor, it was a terrible thing to not get feedback from the audience. Zhang Rui laughed at himself: "Sometimes I don't want to do this anymore. I keep filming and giving, but I have never been recognized by everyone and have never been in everyone's field of view, because many films do not mean they can definitely be broadcast."

However, when he was most confused and depressed, Zhang Rui never really gave up. He wrote a song called "The Heart is Safe" to express his thoughts, "The sky is high and the earth is wide, the heart is Safe, the heart is Safe, the future is Safe, the future is Safe, the water is far and the clouds are long." Fortunately, this firefly born in the microscope will rise one day by the wind and gather into a shining galaxy.

" After the broadcast of "Agarwood is as safe as a shady", everyone suddenly saw Zhang Rui again. Some people said, "This is my favorite male actor a few years ago. He is filming again now, which is great." "After 11 years, Zhang Rui was finally "seeing" again. In the years without the red carpet, all the firmness and persistence have meaning. "I clearly realize that there are some people waiting for me. They hope to see me again, support me again, and hope that actors like me can have more opportunities, so I completely eliminated the idea of ​​retiring from the circle. "

" to "not confused" From doing what you want without going beyond the rules

Zhang Rui is 35 years old this year. He has transitioned from "not confused" to "not confused", but he has entered a state of not surpassing the rules.

He cares about the real audience's evaluation, but he also calmly ignores the malicious discussion: "I really hope to see the audience point out that Zhang Rui's place is not handled well, so that I can make progress and the actors cannot be happy. Of course, I don’t care about malicious damnation. No matter what they say, it will be considered air. "

Although he is shy in private, Zhang Rui is always full of energy in business. He believes that providing good emotional value to the audience is the responsibility of the artist, rather than showing off in front of the camera: "Everyone wants to hear your understanding of this role, or to gain happiness from you. "

Zhang Rui believes that the identity of "actor" is like thousands of professions. It is love, life, and a job, and that's all. "This industry is to provide joy so that the audience can relax after work, so everyone should not blindly chase stars. "

A star that shines, has been silent and has risen slowly to some extent, which can represent the changes of the times. Zhang Rui recalled that the film and television industry was hiding more than ten years ago. At that time, the actors who came here valued basic skills and abide by the "rules".

"There are many rules on the shooting site. You cannot sit on the director's chair or direct other people's work. You must respect other people's profession and treat the script with caution. If you say a wrong line, you must apologize to the scene, 'Sorry, can you do it again', you must learn a series of rules. "

" I am very lucky. From the beginning, there was a drama like "New Return of the Condor Heroes" to temper me, from horse riding to fighting scenes, from lines to demeanor, eye scheduling, character shaping, and expression management. Such a large professional team took 9 months to strictly require you and shape you into shape. This is something I don't regret. "

However, it is regrettable that the rapid development of an industry means that there will be a lot of mud and sand in a short period of time. Due to the failure to adapt to market changes, many "rules" actors have changed their careers and it is difficult to make a comeback. This is the helplessness of the industry. Fortunately, ten years have passed, and the waves have washed away the sand, and the present has become the best.

"It has reached the time when actors of that era can be discovered, because everyone likes actors who are really working hard, so I think my opportunity has come. Nowadays, you want to deceive the audience, but it is difficult and cannot be done. So everyone acted honestly, and the audience was smarter than the actors. "

The feng shui of this industry is changing. There are not many people who can always be on it, nor are there many people who will always be unknown. "When you are at the top, don't despise the people at the foot of the mountain. When you are at the foot of the mountain, don't look up to the people on the mountain. "

" The sky is high and the earth is wide and the heart is far away. I have different mentalities at different times. Now I can see this industry better and understand how to be an actor better. The script has been written, keep a normal mind and do everything well, I think it's enough. ”

The interview transcript is as follows:

China News Network: Yu Mo is forgiving and affectionate, but your personality seems to be more outgoing. How to grasp the role?

Zhang Rui: What you see now is that I have trained me. In fact, I am quite introverted, shy, and don’t know how to speak. I entered the industry at the age of 16. At that time, I used my own appearance to meet everyone, and I didn’t make any adjustments.

Slowly I think this is not possible because everyone can’t feel what you are going to say. Adults in their twenties are not teenagers. They often have to do promotional or record programs. If they are bored and cannot express themselves, they can’t even speak well during the live broadcast. What do you want to talk to you? How can I get you?

So during that time when I rarely meet with everyone, I have been practicing my expression skills, including how to communicate with the media, how to show myself on the show, and to practice these things that I was not good at in order to be in business.

China News Network: In "Agarwood Like Shavings", the Fish Lotus CP also brings everyone relaxation and joy. Many people are playing this couple. What do you think?

Zhang Rui: Everyone has their own right to choose. You can like Zhu Bajie and Sha Monk in " Journey to the West ", or you can choose to like White Bone Demon . Choosing to support Yulian CP or other CP is your right and choice as an audience perspective.

So I think it's okay, like I like to eat potatoes, you like to eat cabbage, maybe some people like to eat Houttuynia cordata , everyone has different tastes, so there is no need to force feed others to eat.

So as an actor, I create a good role and perform Yu Mo's unruly, tolerance, tolerance and protection in place. My task will be completed. As for who you are, that is your business.

China News Network: Are there any interesting things that impressed you during the filming of "Agarwood and Shavings"?

Zhang Rui: actually has a lot of fun things. You may be acting, but suddenly stop, or clicking for a while, it is very fun.

When changing the scenes, everyone will chat with each other, and then talk about some interesting things they have seen recently, and share some interesting memes. Yang Zi will ask everyone to dance together, pull Cheng Yi or pull me to play the game of receiving songs, such as if you sing the end of a song, and then the end of the word must match the end of the word. This has never been decided by the winner, it just deliberately teased her.

Because when Yang Zi was very young, we filmed together. From my feelings, it is the feeling of my brother taking care of my sister. She would play with her if she wanted to play happily because sometimes she was very tired. She had the most scenes among the three of us and had a relatively large workload, so she also hoped to help her adjust her condition.

China News Network: I have known Yang Zi for many years. From the perspective of my brother, what growth and changes do you think Yang Zi has had?

Zhang Rui: I met her when I was filming "New Return of the Condor Heroes", and then I worked together for the first time in " Flowers, Fog, Fog, Fog, ". We had rival scenes at that time, but not many. At that time, she was a child, and I was a child, just becoming an adult.

Then to this time of "Agarwood Like Shards", after 12 years of changes, she has changed from a little girl to a little girl. The first point is mature. Her maturity is not externalized maturity, but psychological maturity. But while she matures mentally, she retains her own sunshine and innocence.

Yang Zi’s innocent, simple and kind side is protected very well. She will not make everyone feel distant and is an actor who keeps his original intention. (End)
