Chen Hong strongly supports her niece Chen Xu, but she has not been popular even after 13 years since her debut. What is wrong with her?

It is really not easy for a person to become famous in today's entertainment industry. He Changxi was "scolded" out of the entertainment industry for no reason, which can be regarded as a different kind of fame.

Although Chen Kaige, another great director on the stage, was also a powerful figure in his early years, his niece is still a passerby in the entertainment industry after 13 years of debut. What breath is Chen Xu missing? You have the resources and background, so why isn’t it popular yet?

My aunt gave her a new dream

Since she was a child, Chen Xu was considered to look a lot like her aunt Chen Hong, and was called Xiao Chen Hong. When she was young, her parents were very busy with work and had no time. To take care of her, her aunt Chen Hong simply took her to live with her in Beijing.

Little Chen Xu was raised by her aunt. In her understanding, her aunt Chen Hong and her uncle Chen Kaige had a harmonious relationship and a happy life. The two called each other by nicknames at home: " "Red" and "Song" made her both envious and yearning for it.

Originally, her wish was to be a people's teacher when she grew up, but she soon changed her mind. She wanted to be an actor like her aunt and live a happy life. Chen Hong loves this niece very much. Chen Hong gave Chen Xu her nickname Tingting, which means she hopes she will have a bright future.

Under Chen Hong’s careful guidance, Chen Xu began to learn music, dance, get in touch with art, and improve her own accomplishments. Her efforts paid off. Chen Xu was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy in 2004 and got her wish. to become an acting student.

In 2007, she participated in the TV series "Dream of Spring Valley" just after graduating from school. The director was Teng Wenji, who has directed the TV series "Beijing Late Autumn Story" and the movie "Blood Romance". This film The starring roles of the drama are Yao Chen and others. Chen Xu plays a small role "Xi'er" in it, but he can be considered to have officially entered the entertainment industry. A newcomer can get this opportunity mainly because of the influence of her aunt and uncle in the film and television industry.

In 2010, she got the opportunity to participate in "A Dream of Red Mansions" directed by Li Shaohong. In this drama, she played two roles, playing a pair of maid sisters Jin Chuan and Yu Chuan, but she The performance was unremarkable and did not leave a special impression on the audience.

In addition, Li Shaohong's "Dream of Red Mansions" was criticized verbally and writtenly by many viewers when it was broadcast because it was inconsistent with the original work in some places. Its score on Douban is only 6 points so far.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xu got the opportunity to participate in the movie "Million Crocodile" starring the big S Xu Xiyuan and Guo Tao. Although it was still a small role with no role, this was her In the first movie, if you seize the opportunity and perform well, you should be able to leave some amazing moments for the audience and the director.

Unfortunately, she didn't make any impression. What's even more pity is that the box office of this movie was mediocre, because the plot was a bit absurd and bizarre. Although the starring actors were Big S and Pubajia, who were at the height of their popularity at the time, it still did not escape the fate of being a bad movie. Chen Xu's few opportunities were like a few pebbles thrown into the sea, without making any waves.

She was bitter about missing "Search"

Time flashed to 2012, and "Search" directed by Chen Kaige was released, but Chen Xu did not dare to watch the movie. Because she once auditioned for the important role "Yang Jiaqi", but was rejected by the director in the end. She always thought that "Yang Jiaqi" was her role, but she didn't expect that it was later given to Wang Luodan.

For a long time, she couldn't let it go. She couldn't figure out why. Until 2015, when she participated in the variety show "I'm Not a Celebrity", she also mentioned that this incident bothered her. At this moment, Chen Hong suddenly appeared on the stage. Why did Chen Hong, who had never participated in variety shows in 30 years, come?

Of course it is to untie my niece’s knot. Chen Xu cried immediately, but Chen Hong patted her and said, "Don't cry. If you cry, it means I don't love you enough." One sentence expresses her deep and true feelings for her niece.

Chen Hong told her that it was right to give her the opportunity to audition, but in front of the camera, Chen Xu still couldn't relax and give herself to the role. Her performance did not meet the expectations of this movie. Require. So after she and Director Chen Kaige looked at each other with a tacit understanding, they knew that Chen Xu was not qualified for this role. If she were to win this role, other actors would need to spend a lot of time teaching her and adjusting to her. This is irresponsible to the other actors and staff.

But they also knew that this incident would cause deep harm to Chen Xu, because it was an admission that her skills were not as good as others and needed to be polished.

Chen Xu has indeed been depressed for several years, but now she admits that she later secretly watched "Search". She was convinced by Wang Luodan's performance, and she thought she could not achieve that level at the time. level, and I am determined to hone my acting skills, and one day I will reach a level that can be used on the big screen.

From "Parents' Love" to "I'm Not a Star"

In 2014, Chen Xu received an important role: Bai Hongmei in "Parents' Love". "Parental Love" is a drama produced by Kong Sheng, the director of Langya List, starring Guo Tao and Mei Ting. Looking at the cast list: Liu Mintao, Guan Xiaotong, Liu Lin... all of them are familiar names.

To be able to join such a crew, this time Chen Xu relied not only on relationships, but also on her personal efforts.

As expected, the role of Bai Hongmei made her come alive. In the play, Mei Ting did not want to see her in every possible way, and the audience outside the play scolded her---this is confusing the actor with the character in the play, which also proves Her progress is no longer a facial expression, but a flesh-and-blood character.

In 2015, Chen Xu participated in the first domestic second-generation celebrity program "I'm Not a Star". She was good at singing and dancing on the stage, and she worked hard on an underwater dance. Chen Xu said I was originally afraid of water, but I worked hard for the show.

It was also this program that made everyone pay attention to this girl. Although her words were not sophisticated enough, she told her hard work with practical actions and showed the sweat she shed with her performances.

It has been 13 years since Chen Xu debuted. It is still unknown what her future will be like, but as long as she can focus on polishing her acting skills, I believe we will see her growth one day in the future.

Summary:

Chen Xu is often compared with her aunt Chen Hong. People often think that an actor with a backing and resources like her will become famous. Isn't it a very easy thing? In fact, where in the entertainment industry can it be so easy to succeed?

When Chen Hong was young, she had no guidance from anyone in the industry and relied on her own hard work. She was also very talented in acting. She was the backbone of the art department in the university. Her success can be said to have been achieved step by step on her own. Come out.

As for Chen Xu, her growth has been relatively smooth. Under Chen Hong's care, she can obtain resources that others are competing for without having to fight for them herself. Maybe she doesn't even realize that she There is a little less spirit of fighting for ideals.

After graduation, there will naturally be movies to film. There will be roles tailor-made for her by great directors without any effort. What else does she need to work hard for? Therefore, when Chen Hong saw through this, she let go at the right time. Although it caused a big blow to Chen Xu at the time, when she woke up, she could look further ahead and win again for herself.

Sure enough, after realizing this, Chen Xu relied on her own strength to earn points in front of the audience. At this time, if Chen Kaige and Chen Hong find suitable resources for her, it will not be difficult for her to fight for the sky. I hope we can see this actress with a sweet smile on the screen again in the near future.
