An actor is ready

The cultivation of actors is afraid that criticism will kill my last confidence. -stanislavski's Self-cultivation of Actors "When did our profession (actor) become a profession that should be praised for reciting lines?" This is a speech made by Wang Jinsong, a famous domestic actor, at a famous domestic TV event, aiming at the chaos in the domestic actor circle. He even mentioned in his speech that "actors can be praised for reciting their lines, and they are shameless." As soon as this is said, all famous and unknown actors or stars have opinions more or less. Few people really reflect on their professionalism? It can be seen that many people do not accept such criticism, which is contradictory from the heart. Although we are viewers in front of the TV, of course, we know little or no about the story behind the TV screen. However, we know at least from an early age that going to school without a pen is the same as going to war without a gun, and bringing a pen is the premise of learning. This is an indispensable link. No teacher will praise a student because of the truth that "a classmate brought a pen to school today", which is easy to understand. Sure enough, as an actor who doesn't recite his lines, he is really shameless. In today's high-speed capital operation, the role of actors and the importance of acting seem to be less important. A large number of star-making teams and brokerage companies push every gorgeous "actor" to the audience through the packaging of various pseudo-artistic means. Some viewers like products produced by assembly line. Our audience pays for this "art" again and again. As a result, driven by interests, "actors" gradually crossed the bottom line and became so-called "stars". An actor is a profession, and a star is a role. In this increasingly impetuous entertainment circle, how many actors are constantly developing into stars. How many stars use their status as actors to raise their status. One to two, the actor gradually became a star, and the fake actor of the star became more and more fierce. On the screen, one second you are bouncing around in a variety show, and the next you may play a dutiful son who lost his loved ones in another show. In this way, the psychological gap of the audience can be imagined. It goes without saying that this is not only a psychological and visual challenge to the audience. It is also a kind of pressure on the so-called "actors". Long-term running around in various uneven crews, taking several plays at the same time. Not only running around in the cast, but also jumping around in the role. The quality of such film and television works can be imagined. What nutrition does this culture have? Or like chicken ribs, "it's a pity to eat tasteless and abandon it." This has become an entertainment for the audience to pass the boring time. Actors should have the bottom line of actors, and stars should have the morality of stars. Perhaps the most obvious criterion to distinguish actors from stars is their attitude towards their careers and roles. Actors regard the name "actor" as their profession, as their honor, and as their life. Stars also regard "stars" as their careers, as their tools to gain benefits, and as their money-making machines. Of course, when the times respected excellent actors and old opera bones, they moved out of their "actors" identity. This kind of identity is more like an ornament for them, and this kind of expensive ornament is difficult to really integrate into itself without long-term accumulation and profound cultural influence, so whenever you see a star wearing ornaments, it is like seeing a clown just pretending to show off his only skill gracefully to impress the public. Stars should stop pursuing interests and don't kidnap the audience's moral standards with interests. Actors and stars mostly use the audience's love for themselves to endorse various advertising products. As spokesmen, they do not fully understand the advantages and disadvantages of the products they endorse. Driven by interests, it is of course excellent for merchants to blindly guide the audience to consume endorsement products. But who will pay for the loss of the unknown audience and consumers? Are they stars? Or a businessman? I don't think any of them are. The packaging of stars should not be too gorgeous, and actors should be loyal to their careers (acting and works). Nowadays, stars blindly add various titles in front of their names and stick various wrapping papers. Whether it is useful or not, whether it is good or bad, whether it is true or not. It seems that only long titles can deserve their popularity and "status". A real actor uses the simple word actor to show his identity and attitude. No gorgeous packaging, no luxurious accessories, only ideals and unchanging initial intentions. This has to mention the actor Eric Wang (no admiration, just as an example analysis). Perhaps most people know him only by the silly and cute Guan Gu in ipartment. But Eric Wang wants to be a pure actor in his bones. He successfully created the image of Guan Gu through ipartment, and therefore became a minor celebrity and entered the entertainment circle. But after a while, he found himself in the wrong place. He wants to be an actor, a pure professional, not a star who pursues fame and fortune all day. So he got rid of fame and fortune in his own way. Find your original direction in the precipitation. In last summer's Desire for Survival, his performance was excellent. As a cancer patient, it makes people feel distressed and heartbroken, so that the audience can truly understand the current situation of this special group around them. If he hadn't been close to the real performance, we might never have noticed them. He changed from a fool in ipartment to a real dancer who spoke with acting skills. Of course, we don't know the sadness and danger. But his change made us sit up and take notice. On the other hand, the actors who used to shine with him on the screen are getting farther and farther away from the road of actors in the wave of variety shows. Maybe they have positioned themselves as stars or idols. As Muyewen, director of Life and Death, said, China movies really need such professional and professional actors. An actor is an actor, and an actor is a profession. A star is just a role, a staged role, and no star can be popular all his life. But real actors can go down in history. The current variety show craze has completely changed the performance path of some actors. Because doing variety shows can earn more money, it is easier to do variety shows, and doing variety shows can get more or even more saturated traffic for them. This is beneficial to their present and future development, so they gave up their career and chose a role. They try to use a social role to show their so-called professionalism and acting skills to the audience for a period of time or longer. Of course, the unknown audience seems to have seen their acting skills. Seems to agree with their performance. But they have lost a professional ethics and respect for their profession. Excessive variety packaging will inevitably make the audience jump out of the scene setting and think about their variety performance when they perform again. Then the audience will doubt the actor's acting skills. If three people become tigers, then the so-called star path will definitely disappear. Imagine that at that time, the screen was full of similar performances, all with the same acting skills. So, who will save China's film? Still hope that Ge You and Chen, who are already old, can bear the burden of China movies? Or do Li, Tang Guoqiang and Dahong Ni, who are over eighty, carry the banner of China movies? Or wait for a few truly moral actors like Zhu, Zhang Hanyu and He to take over? Terrible is not limited to these, from the entertainment circle to the director circle to the screenwriter circle and so on. Various circles cross each other, and the industrial circle behind them covers almost everything. This kind of chaos can be seen everywhere. We keep saying that China movies will rise, surpassing European and American movies. Such strength simply doesn't allow us to dream like this. We are not short of good actors. There is no shortage of real acting school. Defeated by the terrible social atmosphere and the increasingly unreasonable system. It's like football that China can't stand. Someone once said, "There is no shortage of people who can play football in China, but a system that allows people who can play football to stand on the court." So, it seems that all the questions are simple. Consolidate the foundation and dig deep into the source. It's not that I don't know the source, nor is it to consolidate the source first. It is necessary to lay a solid foundation and dig deep into the source. This is a road we must take. There are no shortcuts, only one step at a time. As Mr. Lu Xun said, "There is no road in this world. If there are more people walking, it will become a road." As the title says, "I'm afraid that criticism will kill my last confidence." It can be seen that the foundation of actor's accomplishment begins with self-criticism. The hope of China's films began when the actors accepted criticism. Only in this way, we seem to have real hope.
