"I'll tell you a joke, don't cry."

Jia Ling's words made everyone walk out of the cinema with tears in their eyes.

From not being optimistic before the release, to the fact that a Crying Monument was sung by the audience, Hi, Mom's Explosion made Jia Ling the highest-grossing female directors in China's film history.

The heroine Zhang became the movie heroine and the most concerned actress in the opening year of 20021.

Nine years ago, Jia Ling Weibo's sentence "You are only one scene away from becoming your sister's idol" finally came true.

It turns out that Zhang is so good at acting.

Many people once thought that Zhang, like Jia Ling, studied cross talk.

As a result, Zhang became popular overnight, which made many people lament that she could still act.

In fact, Zhang Tiansheng is a serious actress. Before doing comedy, she followed the same development route as all actresses.

However, this road is long and barren.

1993, 7-year-old Zhang still doesn't want to put his leg on pole dancing.

A childhood photo

She was forced to learn dance by her mother since she was a child. She is not soft and not suitable for dancing, but she can't stand her mother's love.

In Zhang's childhood memory, every day after school, my mother threw her schoolbag on the bed and pulled her up. She went to learn dance by bus, day after day, year after year.

1997, Zhang, 1 1 years old, was sent to Beijing by his mother to study dance in the Dance Department of Central University for Nationalities. Later, I went to China Armed Police Art Troupe.

In those years, Zhang, who grew up gradually, began to have his own ideas. She wants to be an actress.

In 2005, she finally successfully entered Nortel, thinking that she was one step closer to her dream.

But reality poured cold water on her. With the aura of "Nortel", Yang Mi and Mabel Yuan are classmates and roommates, but they always get the script of "Passerby A".

For a long time after graduation, although I have been acting, there is no splash.

Watching the students become popular one by one, Yang Mi became a hit with the help of "Fairy Sword 3" and "Palace", and he was still looking around for the group in order to survive.

Once she went to an audition, a female producer pointed to her face and laughed at her appearance: "Do you think there is something wrong with your face?"

The irony of the producer hit the wall again and again, which made Zhang deeply hit and even began to doubt whether he was destined to be an actor.

Recalling the time when I just graduated, Zhang lamented that I was like a steamed stuffed bun on an early stall. It was still steaming when I graduated, but it soon cooled down.

In order to survive in Beijing, Zhang had to listen to his teacher's advice and was admitted to China Radio Art Troupe, where he worked as a host.

Everyone told her that it would be nice if a girl had a stable job, but Zhang's "movie dream" has not given up.

In the previous situation, Zhang didn't despair, but she couldn't give up: becoming a movie actor was her most clear and firm goal.

In order to dream, she is willing to die for a chance.

She chose a more difficult track,

But it has achieved overtaking in corners.

In this group, Zhang got to know Jia Ling, the first nobleman in his acting career.

On 20 12, Jia Ling received an invitation from the Spring Festival Evening Program Group of Beijing TV Station to prepare the essay "N kinds of power of women". But there was a vacancy in the sketch that needed to be filled urgently, so Jia Ling thought of the girl with acting talent.

When Jia Ling found Zhang, Zhang, who had never intended to get involved in comedy, subconsciously refused.

She joked, "Sorry, we beauties never play comedies."

She knows that the comedy industry is not friendly to actresses. No matter how hard they try, most of them can't escape deliberately using their appearance or silently making vase-like green leaves beside the actors.

But in that year's Beijing Satellite TV Spring Festival Evening, we still saw the wonderful partner of Zhang and Jia Ling.

Yes, she "cheated" and acted in a comedy.

It is Zhang's instinct to seize the opportunity before it comes.

Choosing comedy is undoubtedly choosing a more difficult track. But on this more difficult track, she achieved overtaking in the corner.

The audience familiar with Jia Ling knows that in her sketches, there are flowing actors and bloody Zhang.

Jia Ling and Zhang Cun are between Bole and Maxima. Jia Ling appreciates Zhang Xiaofei very much and wants to give her more performance opportunities. Zhang didn't want to disappoint Jia Ling, but wanted to win a breath for herself.

The two were fat and thin on the stage, lively and quiet. I didn't expect such a combination to be loved by the audience.

There is a growing understanding between them. Jia Ling took Zhang to the legendary swordsman for three seasons, and the Spring Festival Gala was also held together.

The true and false teacher in 20 18, the ridiculous teacher in 20 19, the mother-in-law in 2020 and this year's twists and turns have won applause from countless audiences every time they perform on stage.

Everyone likes Zhang, a beautiful comedian with good acting skills, and calls her "a peerless beauty in comedy".

For a comedian, this word sounds like a derogatory term at first glance, because it often symbolizes that you can't get out or make people laugh. However, when netizens described Zhang as a "peerless beauty in the comedy circle", it was indeed full of appreciation and heartfelt admiration.

From the supporting role to the leading role, Zhang has made unimaginable efforts behind the scenes.

In order to present a good role, she repeatedly polished the story and role positioning, and even couldn't sleep for three or four hours every day.

She gradually formed her own unique comedy style-no need to be ugly, no need to be funny, and no need to laugh at herself to gain audience recognition. She relies on baggage, meaningful scripts and solid acting skills.

Only from this point of view, she has succeeded.

"Comedian" has never been her shackle.

Once an actor is labeled as a comedy, it is difficult to get rid of it. Zhang is clever enough on this issue.

She will not use the label "comedian" as a shackle or an excuse to give up acting. In this comedy world, she works intensively, and when she has a chance to pick up her old job again, she can firmly seize it.

Zhang, who has made small achievements in the field of comedy, participated in the variety show "I am an actor" to test his acting skills in order to seek a breakthrough.

At that time, she starred in the segment of Blind Mountain, which made her mentor and audience discover that she could not only perform sketches.

Zhang Ziyi said to her, "You don't have to worry about this at all. I don't see the label of comedian on you. "

This time, as Li Huanying, she handed over an answer sheet that satisfied the audience.

Those who cried after watching the movie "Hi, Mom" can't forget that charming and simple face and get Li Huanying's "mother's love sequela".

Zhang, 35, became a "national mother" overnight. In her Weibo, she "listens to her mother's voice" every day.

In order to concentrate on this role, Zhang refused the invitation of "Braving the Wind and Waves 2".

Zhang dare not neglect this opportunity that has been waiting for many years. She doesn't want such an important film as Jia Ling to have regrets, and she doesn't want to have regrets herself. She must be the best.

Jia Ling just casually said, her mother is fatter than Zhang, and she gained 10 Jin in a short time, just to pretend to be a real person. Later, she found that she couldn't look good at the camera after getting fat, so she went to lose weight.

In the movie, there was a scene where Zhang's leg was accidentally cut by a foreign body in the water, and Zhang couldn't help crying because of the pain. But when the pain subsided slightly, Zhang immediately smiled and said that he was fine and asked to continue filming.

When Zhang Xiao, Jia Ling unconsciously became his optimistic mother.

"Xiao Fei smiled. I think the world is warm."

Some people say that Zhang laughs and wants to cry.

It may be the film, or it may be the shadow left by the years on her.

The long nameless road, more than ten years of struggle, is like the normal struggle of every ordinary person.

In those days when I don't know when the sunshine will take care of her, fortunately, she has been persevering and never stopped polishing herself.

Now, she has finally realized her movie dream.

Some people say that Zhang's popularity came a little late, but I think it will be just right sooner or later as long as it comes.
