It is a bit arbitrary to say that there will be no more Lin Daiyu after Chen Xiaoxu, but so far, no one has been able to surpass Chen Xiaoxu in shaping Lin Daiyu’s character. Sometimes I even believe that Chen Xiaoxu is the reincarnation of Lin Daiyu, and she was born for the role of Lin Daiyu. Why do you say this? Two reasons.
1. Chen Xiaoxu’s own outstanding temperament
When selecting roles for "Dream of Red Mansions", Chen Xiaoxu recommended himself, submitted an application to the crew, and provided a photo of himself. , is her catkin poem, with the following poem:
I am a catkin,
grew up in the beautiful spring,
because my parents were premature Abandon me,
I became close friends with the spring breeze.
I am a catkin,
born carefree and carefree;
My father is the vast sky,
I My mother is the boundless earth.
I am a catkin,
Don’t ask me where my home is,
May the spring breeze blow me to the ends of the earth,
I want to bring the news of spring to the corners of the sea.
From the first paragraph of this poem, we see a touch of sadness, "My parents abandoned me prematurely", while the last two paragraphs of the poem are full of optimism, which is very good. Does it fit Lin Daiyu’s background and personality? In addition, Chen Xiaoxu also has great love for "Dream of Red Mansions". Before she recommended herself to play the role of Lin Daiyu, she had read "Dream of Red Mansions" thoroughly. She even thought that she was Lin Daiyu. This kind of strong self-confidence stems from her deep understanding of the character. understand.
2. Chen Xiaoxu’s tireless study
After joining the crew of "Dream of Red Mansions", each character must live according to the character’s original identity. Chen Xiaoxu quickly fell into the role at this time. Moreover, among the crew, Chen Xiaoxu is recognized as a person with strong learning ability. She not only writes poetry, but also practices calligraphy. These two items are crucial to shaping Lin Daiyu’s intangible literary and artistic temperament! There is a saying that goes well, your temperament hides the books you have read and the road you have traveled. I think that when Chen Xiaoxu played the role of Lin Daiyu, even if he had some shortcomings in nature, his acquired learning made up for them. She does not deliberately move closer to the character, but takes the character as her true self. The crew of "Dream of Red Mansions" originally decided to play the role of Lin Daiyu, not Chen Xiaoxu alone, but in the end the director was conquered by her temperament.
3. The latecomers did not catch up
Without comparison, there is no harm. The same is true for the role of Lin Daiyu. The reason why we say that there will be no more Lin Daiyu after Chen Xiaoxu is, on the one hand, because Chen Xiaoxu brought Lin Daiyu to life, and even the harsh red scholars admired her. On the other hand, it is also because when subsequent actors portrayed the role of Lin Daiyu, they There really is no breakthrough. For them, starring in Lin Daiyu may be a kind of pressure. Moreover, the modern fast-paced life has cultivated characters who are more fashionable and trendy in the metropolis, which is very different from Lin Daiyu's own temperament. I have to sigh with emotion: Chen Xiaoxu uses his life to act, not his acting skills!
We must admit that some characters cannot be surpassed, such as Chow Yun-fat's Ponyboy, Leslie Cheung's Cheng Dieyi, Brigitte Lin's The Invincible, and Zhu Yin's Zixia Fairy. We are truly lucky to have a Chen Xiaoxu who looks so much like Lin Daiyu.
