02. How is Secretary Dakang made?

Figuring out this question is basically equivalent to figuring out who Wu Gang is?

Wu Gang was born into a military family. In September 1985, Wu Gang was admitted to the actor training class of the Beijing People's Theater and began his career as an actor.

For more than 30 years, he has never left the drama stage, he has participated in more than 20 drama works such as "The First Floor of the World", "Thunderstorm", "Teahouse", "Thunderstorm", "Sunrise", "Beijinger", Cao Yu's three major dramas He has acted.

In 2007, he won the "Golden Lion Award", the highest award for Chinese drama, for the drama "Mutiny".

Drama is far less expensive than acting in a TV series.

But he likes to do thankless tasks.

not only rehearses dramas, but even obsesses with sketches that don't make money.

Guo Da acted in the sketch "Changing Rice", and the young man who practiced bel canto with Guo Da and Yang Lei in the play was Wu Gang.

Although the sketch is small, the rehearsal process is very long, and a character only has three or five minutes, which is a test of the actor's skills and a test of utilitarianism.

"At that time, the CCTV party was on fire, and many people began to ask me to act in sketches, and I didn't go to the cave, I am an honest person. If you take a quick path but it won't be long, then I think it's better to take it slowly, so good. ”

He once described to reporters that over the years, before filming, he had been "practicing martial arts" at home.

In 2006, Wu Gang starred in the movie "Glorious Anger" directed by Cao Baoping, playing a newly appointed village party secretary.

No hype, no over-publicity, no operation. Wu Gang described his electrocution like this-

"During the filming, many local people came to watch, so I squatted on the wall, turned my head and asked the people around me: Hey, what about the movie, what about the actor? The people around me said, yes. Then follow along. At that time, I thought: this drama is done. ”

Before starring as Li Dakang in "In the Name of the People", Wu Gang's most well-known role was Lu Qiaoshan, the intelligence director of the Tianjin Station of the Military Commander in "Latent".

Although Lu Qiaoshan is not the main character in the play, netizens still used "seckill" to describe his acting skills.

The place where Hengdian filmed "Latent", the small restaurant where Lu Qiaoshan was killed, has a sign that reads: The place where Luqiao Mountain was killed has become a scenic spot.

After that, he successively played the sleek Fei Erye in the movie "Mei Lanfang", the distorted Lu Zilin in "White Deer Plain", and the tangled art master Xu Beihong in "Xu Beihong".

The chivalrous Wang Jinxi in "Iron Man" won him the Best Actor Award at the 27th China Film Golden Rooster Awards.

Wu Gang is a very shaft actor.

Before the filming of "Iron Man", he insisted on eating only 5 peanuts every day, and lost 17 pounds in more than 10 days. Wu Gang said that he wanted to learn from the spirit of "iron man" who "would rather live 30 years less than build a big oil field"——

"I'd rather live 5 years less than act in this play."

Acting is his belief, but fame is not.

It's popular today, he said, how to live like this, how to live like this, how much to eat and how much to eat in normal times.

In terms of emotional life, he and his wife Yue Xiuqing have been working together for 30 years from classmates to husband and wife.

Yue Xiuqing was a talented woman in that era, and once her career was important, and she refused Wu Gang's pursuit.

Once Wu Gang accompanied her to the street and found her looking enviously at a red dress. Wu Gang remembered, sent her home, secretly ran to the mall, and found that the skirt cost 98 yuan, which was his two months' salary, and he had no savings at all.

Wu Gang just cut down on food and clothing, and finally saved enough 98 yuan.

This incident touched Yue Xiuqing very much - "You must cherish the person who has a hundred yuan and is willing to spend 90 yuan for you." ”

For thirty years, they have been good partners at work and good partners in life.

And this Yue Xiuqing is none other than the actor of Ouyang Jing, the wife of Secretary Dakang.

Wu Gang has been in the arts for many years, with zero scandals and no wife.

However, that doesn't mean it's not romantic.

Wu Gang sent a telegram to his daughter-in-law at the crew, wishing her a happy birthday, everyone laughed at him, how convenient WeChat is, he said, it feels different.

Yue Xiuqing took a fancy to a sports car in Macau and liked it very much. After returning to Beijing, Wu Gang ran almost all the car markets in Beijing, and finally found a black sports car that was exactly the same as the one he saw in Macau.

On Valentine's Day, I will take my son to kneel down with her and give her underwear roses made by myself (which is also peculiar, but the way straight men show their love is quite upright, and Secretary Dakang is so cute).

In the entertainment industry, which is a junior, derailed, and flooded, this kind of relationship is a bit like a fossil, just like a person like Dakang, there seems to be a gap between it and reality, so its existence moves us so much.

Mu Xin said that at that time, there was only enough time to love one person in a lifetime.

03. Refraction behind it.

In recent years, we have witnessed many strange situations in the film and television drama industry:

The hero and heroine of a drama are only filmed for more than ten days; Speak lines in numbers and rely entirely on post-dubbing; When you enter the group, you are required to change the script and act according to your own personality;

The performance is not enough, and the later inverted mold keying is used to make up, but the salary is tens of millions of dollars, which squeezes the production budget of the work.

But what does a qualified actor look like? Wu Gang showed the professional attitude that an actor should have:

In order to make the role of Secretary Da Kang more expressive, he can enter the group three days in advance to try on makeup one by one, just to choose a suitable hairstyle;

He searched the Internet for many, many videos of leaders at all levels, and watched them one by one at the press conference.

He went back to the station every day after filming in costumes, and put on the costumes when he woke up the next morning, in order to stay in shape.

These are not for this play, they are what he has done for more than 30 years - the upright boy, the secretary of Dakang who will blow up his hair if he disagrees.

Let's take a look at his contemporaries, how did the acting disciples brought out by those masters treat acting?

Wu Gang's classmate Feng Yuanzheng failed to see his father for the last time for the sake of the art drama "Teahouse".

When He Bing performed "Wotou Hall", his hand was scratched by the glass and he was bleeding nonstop, so he put his hand in his sleeve and continued to perform.

A long time ago, in an interview with Wu Gang, he said that success or unsuccess, we can do the work we like, and we can do it well, this is success!

In this TV series, there are more than 40 dedicated veteran actors like Wu Gang: Zhang Fengyi, Zhang Zhijian, Hou Yong, Li Guangfu......

They get a lower salary than the market price, and they show their excellent performance strength.

There are many factors for the popularity of a "In the Name of the People", and Wu Gang's popularity may be just a flash in the pan, because the times are changeable.

Zheng Xipo's son, Zheng Shengli, said: Dad, you are still a contemporary Du Fu, don't you rely on me to pay for you to publish a poetry collection?

He changed his name to Zheng Qian, which is homophonic for "making money".

He is a reflection of the times. Times are getting too fast, that's reality.

Popular Xiaosheng, fresh meat, Xiaohua and "young husbands", this is a market choice.

But his father, Zheng Xipo-style, adheres to morality and rules, does it make us feel more tears in our eyes, and something in our hearts is touched?

In "In the Name of the People", I was moved by a character, "Sister Wang" played by Wang Liyun, the wife of the old prosecutor Chen Yanyan.

Whether Chen Yanyan led troops to fight when he was young, offended people when he was a prosecutor general in middle age, or chose to enter a nursing home when he was old, Sister Wang always supported silently and never gave up.

That's the power of perseverance.

No matter how times change, we must always believe in something that has been proven by time.

Wu Gang's popularity is a confirmation that these things still exist and can infect the world.

It's comforting.

……

After reading it, Thangka looked at Luo Qing a little stunned and said, "You wrote this?" I feel like you've become a professional film critic! ”

"Hee-hee!" She laughed, "That's not what you forced me to do!" didn't let me go out, so I could only stay at home and watch dramas every day. How do you say that sentence, I am familiar with 300 Tang poems, and I can't write poems and chant them. I'm calling it, I watch 300 episodes of the drama every day, and I don't know how to write a screenplay! Do you think it's okay?

"Haha! This is good! He gave her a gentle kiss on the forehead, "Wait for me in a moment!" I'll ask the secretary to choose a secretary to see if I will send out this manuscript of mine as the main post in the past two days, and then publish this professional film review post of yours at the same time, okay? ”

"Okay!" She laughed, "What do you mean, our municipal party secretary will also approve my post?" ”

"That's nature!" He hugged her into his arms, "It's not like I'm complimenting you!" This film review of yours is very professionally written, starting from the small incision of the actor's skills, and explaining the deep-seated reasons for Secretary Dakang's popularity. And I'm writing this relatively simple, and I'll be honest with you, this thing is not actually used as a post, but as a lecture outline. ”

"Oh!" She suddenly realized, "I said, when I first saw it at that time, I thought it was a little strange, why do you still set up mutual answering questions?" It turns out that you came to me this weekend to prepare for class! ”

"Yes!" He told him calmly, "Secretary Yixuan has assigned a task, and I am also chasing ducks to the shelves." How do you think my syllabus is okay? ”

"Hmm!" She nodded heavily, "The theme is clear, the focus is highlighted, just use two words, grab and grasp, and explain the fundamental problem clearly, which is impressive." ”

He smiled and said, "How do I feel, you are very politically conscious now!" According to me, if you don't do business now, you can go to our Propaganda Department and become a news section chief or something, and there will be no problem at all! ”

"Haha! I'm not going! She smiled softly, "Still, thank you for the affirmation!" Actually, I learned it all from you! If you want to gain a foothold in today's society, you can't just know one thing, you have to know everything. Just like you, you were positioned as just a secretary at the beginning. Who would have thought that you are so eloquent in terms of marketing and business that even I, who consider myself to have been in business for many years, would be ashamed of myself. Coupled with the accumulation and utilization of literary and historical knowledge, the analysis and grasp of the actual situation, compared with you, I am too far behind, I can't care about it! ”

"Alright!" He touched her forehead, "Don't hold me!" This is where I should learn from you! ”

"Hee-hee!" She smiled, "Then let's stop flattering each other, this sentence seems to be what you say most often." Let's have a mutual comparison? ”

"Hmmm! It's better to be better than each other! He smirked and put his hand under her, "Let's compete with each other, which one moves faster?" ”

"Nasty! You can still come! She snorted, but hugged him tightly.
