In Bao Beier’s play, George W. Song Jia was ＂slapped in the face＂ and frankly wanted to play the villain
People’s Daily Online, Beijing, July 15 (Reporter Yan Li) 2016 is the tenth year of Bao Beier’s debut. On July 15, the romantic comedy film "Lu Yao Zhi Ma Li" starring his partners Song Jia Jr. and Zhu Yawen will be released in the national cinema. Recently, he has been rushing around roadshows in major cities. He has always been extremely nervous and excited and accepted an exclusive interview with People’s Daily reporters after the screening in Beijing.
"I value the box office very much, and I also care about word of mouth." Bao Beier told reporters his thoughts seriously. "Because only in this way can I have a better film project, and only in this way can I have more room to shoot and play the role I want to interpret most." Hard to hide the tired face, full of Bao Beier’s persistence and persistence in his movie dream.
The interview room was randomly selected in the staff lounge. The table was cluttered with unfinished lunch boxes, and the armchairs on one side were tiled with clothes that had been ironed and needed to be worn for the next day’s activities. "Ok, let’s get started!" Bao Beier smiled like a sigh of relief, and the clock on the wall pointed to 22:20.
Losing 15 pounds for "Lu Yi" in 10 days, Xiao Song Jia was really distressed to be "forced"
The film "Lu Yao Know Ma Li" tells the story of a Lu Yao who has a serious "confession disorder" and falls in love with his best friend Ma Li. By mistake, because of various Jiyuan, the two have experienced a long-distance love run for 33 years. "When I first started this script, I only knew a story outline, and I didn’t know the specific details at all." Bao Beier said with a smile. "I only asked the article one sentence, ‘ Why did you choose me to be first hero ’ . He responded to me simply, ‘ Because I have seen a play you played, and you are a good actor ’ , I said ‘ Ok, I’ll play ’ He asked me the same question again, and I told him because I believe that actors who act seriously will become good directors. " In Bao Beier’s mind, nothing is more important than mutual trust.
In June 2015, the morning in Shanghai was sunny, and Bao Beier, who was full of joy, saw the article again, "In my own words, I am completely ready to do it ‘ First hero ’ Yes. " But at that time, the article frowned. "He thinks I am too fat, so let me lose at least 10 pounds in 10 days!" In this way, Bao Beier has experienced his most devilish weight-loss training so far. He has to run at least 60 laps a day in a training room of about 20 square meters, and he can only choose vegetables and fruits in his diet. Ten days later, Bao Beier lost 15 pounds, and the film started smoothly in July.
As early as 2011, Bao Beier and George W. Song Jia cooperated in an online drama called "Happiness Express", which left an impression on George W. Song Jia that Bao Beier was serious and meticulous about acting; A Northeast man who is considerate and loyal to his friends. "She is also a very awkward girl, dedicated and professional, unpretentious and very attractive." Bao Beier suddenly fell into the cooperation with George W. Song Jia five years ago.
In "Liu Yao Know Ma Li", in order to show Song Jia’s emotional changes to Bao Beier, there is a scene where Song Jia needs to slap Bao Beier for several seasons. "I feel that I can’t get into the state that day, so I told her, don’t take a seat, come directly, and she said, no, I said nothing, and then she really ‘ Start ’ The … …” Although Bao Beier has no complaints about this, Song Jia Jr., who has become a good friend, really "distressed" for a long time.
I’m not Gao Fushuai, I just hope to play the villain in the future.
Bao Beier, who has appeared in at least 40 film and television works, is still most afraid of being questioned by others even if she is upgraded to "first hero". After everyone’s criticism of her role in "To Youth" and "Long Away from Hong Kong", Bao Beier bluntly said that she was "very uncomfortable" and "I am trying to change myself and make myself better and better."
In order to be different from Wang Baoqiang’s Embarrassment in Thailand, Bao Beier admitted that his performance in Embarrassment in Hong Kong was "overexertion". In one scene, Xú Zhēng hoped that Bao Beier would jump from the 7th floor to the 1st floor without a stuntman. "I thought, if a stuntman can do it, so can I!" . On the day of shooting, all the staff were very nervous. Bao Beier, who was afraid of heights, climbed to the seventh floor trembling, afraid to look down at a glance. He was tied with Genweiya, and without any protective measures, he jumped down after Xú Zhēng’s "Shooting" gesture. Afterwards, Xú Zhēng was quite satisfied with his performance. "Because Baoqiang’s performance in" Lost in Thailand "was excellent, I must do my best. I hope the audience can give the same affirmation after watching" Lost in Hong Kong ".
However, the polarized word-of-mouth after the film was released once again made Bao Beier fall into the confusion of "Who am I?" "I am like plasticine. I will pinch myself into what the play needs. What should I do?"
In 2015, Bao Beier took the film My Adolescence, which tells the story of young people in a small town who wandered around the Beijing film circle after 1980s. "I need to find my own style. I’m not Wang Baoqiang, Bo Huang, Xú Zhēng and Sun Honglei, and they all have great personal charm, so I will make the audience like it in acting, and let the audience remember it, but my life is dull and not very attractive, so I need to find myself." Being the leading actor for the first time and telling the story of "drifting to the north" of his peers, Bao Beier constantly digs out his own personality characteristics from this little guy, and in the process, he looks for his own "comedy style" bit by bit.
"Comedy has always been my favorite type. You have to make the audience smile and shed tears after laughing. This is quite awesome. In addition, in fact, I especially want to try to play the villain and challenge myself, and I believe that I can do it myself! " Bao Beier said.
Family and friends are everything to me from Xú Zhēng to Jia Ling.
In 1984, Bao Beier was born in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province. He was naughty since childhood. Before he was 10 years old, he had a childlike childhood as ordinary children. All the reversals occurred at the moment when his parents divorced. In order to provide a better choice for Bao Beier’s future, his mother went to Japan alone, leaving only Bao Beier and his nanny to live in Harbin. Since then, Bao Beier has learned to be independent, to take care of himself and to solve everything that happens around him, because he knows that no one can really help him from then on.
After many worldly changes, Bao Beier regarded his family and friends as life. "I am very grateful to my family and friends who have been with me for so many years. Without them, there would be no me today." Bao Beier said faintly. He directed for the first time when filming "Happy Detective", and many of the guest star friends helped. "Jia Ling, Wang Ou, Huang Xiaoming and Calvin all played very well. Although the article grumbled, they still sat in the car and went to Hengdian to help me string a scene."
Today, Bao Beier is no longer just an actor. He is still trying to be a director himself, and even opened a hot pot restaurant in his hometown. "I like to get together with my friends for dinner, play jokes on them and chat. I am happier than them to see them happy. "
"Being a good actor is my biggest dream in my life, because I can appreciate the lives of hundreds of different people in the play. When I am in the dust, I can still leave some good film and television works for others to move and share with others. I feel it is a particularly beautiful thing." Bao Beier admits that in order to shoot his favorite film and television works, he set up his own studio and trained his own team of screenwriters and directors. Although it was difficult to get down step by step, he never regretted it. "Do you know how much it costs to hire a driver for a month?" Bao Beier threw a seemingly simple question to the reporter. When he saw the reporter’s response of shaking his head, he slightly bowed his head and was silent for a few seconds. "Sometimes you need to face life compromise. I can’t guarantee that every work I shoot in the future will satisfy the audience, but I dare say that I have done my best in every work."
Reporter’s Note: Philosophers who don’t want to be directors are not good actors.
Bao Beier’s quick thinking and amazing speed of speech are the first impression he gave reporters. He will look you straight in the eye and won’t escape any questions you throw, but he always thinks to himself while answering, as if talking to you, and also seems to be conducting a "persuasion education" for himself.
Being unsmiling is completely different from many comedy characters he created on the big screen. All topics from life to death are topics that he likes to discuss alone. "Sometimes I wonder what success is. Success is that you have won the Best Actor and won the recognition of people around you? Or did you earn a lot of money to feed and clothe your family? Finally, I want to understand, in fact, success is very simple, success is to let yourself find happiness in the challenge. I haven’t found enough happiness now. I believe that it will get better and better. "
