　　Among all the stars in the Chinese mainland, only Angelababy became the only one who became famous in English.

　　

　　Many people are familiar with the name Angelababy, but they are unfamiliar with the name Yang Ying.

　　

　　So why is Yang Ying called Angelababy? How did this name become popular?

　　Angelababy was born in Shanghai on February 28, 1989. She is of Chinese-German descent and her Chinese name is Yang Ying. She is a true Chinese.

　　

　　Angela (Angela) is a woman’s name. Zhang Shaohan’s English name is Angela Zhang, and Li Xiang’s daughter’s English name is Angela, which is also the name of a Japanese animation singer group. Baby means baby, in addition to calling children, you can also call your beloved. Angel is the English of "angel", and AngelaBaby is connected together, which means "angel baby".

　　

　　Angelababy’s English name was Angela when she was a child, but her classmates thought the three sounds of the name were too difficult to pronounce, and she had Baby Fat, so they were all called Baby. When she hosted the Disney show, she used Angela back, and later didn’t want everyone to confuse her name, so they combined to become the current angelababy.

　　

　　Afterwards, she made her debut as a model and turned her acting career to the big screen in 2007. She grew up step by step, becoming increasingly known as angelababy.

　　In recent years, her popularity has skyrocketed and her career has blossomed: she has been in the top 100 of the Forbes China Celebrity List for three consecutive years, and she has attended international events such as Paris Fashion Week, Milan Fashion Week, and the Venice International Film Festival.

　　

　　After Angelababy became famous, the Chinese name Yang Ying was rarely used. The media and fans only remembered the name Angelababy, and for convenience, everyone called her baby.

　　

　　Angelababy smiled and said, "But I still like my family to call me by my real name, Yang Ying, in Shanghai dialect. It feels the most cordial!"

　　

　　Now she and Huang Xiaoming are happily together, and on January 17, 2017, they ushered in a new life together. From then on, 1 + 1 = 3.

　　　

　

　

1905 movie network feature "I’ve always pursued roles I haven’t played before."Indeed, in the new film, we once again see a never-before-seen Guo Fucheng: playing the down-and-out homeless Abo.

"Mai Passerby" is a rare realist work in Hong Kong films in recent years. It shows the lives of a group of small people who sleep in fast food restaurants. This group of "strangers" in the end of the world support each other in difficulties and keep each other warm. Some people say that this is the "Hong Kong version of the thief family".The film received 10 nominations at the 39th Hong Kong Film Awards, making Guo Fucheng a finalist for Best Actor for the sixth time.

Today, "Mai Passerby" has been released for three days, and the box office is less than 10 million. The new director’s shortcomings in the play are more obvious, but Guo Fucheng’s delicate and moving performance has received almost "one-sided" recognition.Although it is a group portrait drama, Guo Fucheng’s A Bo is undoubtedly the richest character. He was once a financial genius who was imprisoned for embezzlement. After being released from prison, he was ostracized and became an unemployed vagrant.

In order to get close to the character, Guo Fucheng grew the longest beard and hair in his life. On the set, he deliberately did not eat, feeling the real "hungry" feeling, and insisted on shooting all night until the early morning before eating.

At the end of the scene, when Ah Bo was dying, he took a bus to his mother’s house, but in the end, he couldn’t forgive himself and didn’t take the step to reunite with his mother. The picture of him leaning against the car window and crying silently moved many people.

At the age of 55, few actors are as obsessed with "self-breakthrough" as Guo Fucheng.Just like his beloved motorsport, on the track of the movie, he still filled up the throttle and raced all the way.

01

Guo Fucheng was both unfamiliar and familiar with Abo’s poverty and embarrassment."To be honest, Guo Fucheng was also poor when he was a child, right? I worked hard step by step from the grassroots, and then built everything I had."

Guo Fucheng, born in 1965, is the youngest in his family, with two older brothers and two older sisters. The family of seven makes a living by opening a silver shop and lives in a small public housing, which is not considered prosperous.In 1984, at the age of 19, Guo Fucheng was admitted to the TVB dance training class. Three years later, he transferred to the artist training class and graduated with the first place, ranking among the wireless "Galaxy Ten Stars".

　

Before graduation, a teacher who loved him once warned him kindly: "You are not tall enough and your face is too childish. If you want to stand out in TV dramas, you need to be patient in addition to hard work."

Indeed, in the era of "wireless five tigers", there were not many opportunities left for newcomers like Guo Fucheng.

　

During his busiest days, Guo Fucheng has several plays a day, but most of them are unremarkable supporting roles. Every day at 3 am, he has to rush back to his home in the east from Kowloon in the west. Before his head touches his pillow, he almost has to go out to catch the morning shift at 7 o’clock. All day long, it is all martial arts, and he is exhausted, but there may not be many shots in the finished film.

　

He also tasted the taste of sitting at home for more than half a year without working. Wireless has five or six hundred contracted actors, but only a few can be thought of by the producers. "If you have the opportunity to’go online ‘, you must take it well, otherwise the company and the producers will never see you."

　

In his 1991 anthology, "I Need Love," Guo Fucheng wrote: "I have been working at TVB for five years, and I have been obsessed with my love for my work. In terms of actual income, it seems that there is no progress. How long will this life last? I don’t ask much. I just want to provide a floor, which is a little more spacious than my current home, and my parents can live comfortably. But with my income, this dream is still far away!"

Perhaps it is this early experience that has kept Guo Fucheng in a strong sense of urgency. He believes in the harsh law of "natural selection, survival of the fittest" in the entertainment industry, and only by working harder than others can he achieve a stable foothold.

　

02

"What you can’t guess is your heart/Who says I don’t care."This is the theme song of the Guangyang locomotive advertisement shot by Guo Fucheng in 1990. The sunny boy with flowing hair and pure eyes instantly conquered the hearts of countless girls.

　

Guo Fucheng also took the opportunity to sign a record company and released his first Mandarin album "I Can’t Love You Enough". From unknown dancers and young actors to female idols who became popular overnight, Guo Fucheng finally waited for his turn at the age of 25.

The 1990s were the golden age of the "Four Heavenly Kings". As the last one to become popular, Guo Fucheng had no advantage in singing and acting other than dancing. He could only keep practicing and make up for his weaknesses with diligence.Guo Fucheng’s album producertensorOnce commented on a certain program: From the beginning, Guo Fucheng was one of the few singers who worked hard to elevate his singing skills to another level.

Not only singing and dancing, but every stage of Guo Fucheng must be the ultimate. Avant-garde styling with dazzling dance beauty, Guo Fucheng is a natural performer, standing in the center of the stage will be full of aura.

　

Looking back on that decade, Guo Fucheng admitted that the competition between the "Four Heavenly Kings" was very fierce, and there was no moment to relax.Two or three records are released a year, and life is almost the same every day – a few lines between the studio, the rehearsal room, the concert and the media. "Under the packaging of an idol, like a ‘puppet‘. "

In the past ten years, from being shortlisted for the Best Supporting Actor at the Academy Awards to 1998, Guo Fucheng’s film and television works have been quite numerous.

But these are more formulaic characters who are beautiful and athletic, not so much works as part of his elaborate idol packaging.Under the halo of "Heavenly King", no one really regards Guo Fucheng as an actor.

03

In 2000, Kwok Fu-cheng won the Most Popular Male Singer Award in Hong Kong for the third consecutive year.

　

In the face of the usual cheers and applause, a deep "sense of fatigue" surged inside him. This sense of fatigue comes from the anxiety of standing still and the insecurity of not seeing the future.Guo Fucheng, who is good at judging the situation, said to himself: We must transform.

In the following three years, Guo Fucheng slowed down his singing career and concentrated on films, but none of the six films he took on failed to achieve the goal of transformation.Until 2005, the 40-year-old Guo Fucheng faced, and finally opened the actor’s "Aperture".

The art director Zhang Shuping first subverted Guo Fucheng in terms of appearance: no makeup, no shaving, and inappropriate suits. Guo Fucheng no longer "plays himself", but becomes a down-and-out police officer Sun Zhaoren from the outside and the inside.

"You are already another person, you have no self, and you have forgotten all about the machine." Three Forks "made me really appreciate what a movie is."In the most classic scene, Sun Zhaoren, who learned of his girlfriend’s death, rode all the way, allowing his emotions to be wrapped in self-exile. Guo Fucheng performed the most extreme sadness of the characters, the pain was deep, and the wailing was silent.

With "Three Forks", Guo Fucheng won the first "Best Actor" trophy. At the "Three Forks" of his life, he gambled in the right direction.This stunning performance also earned him a winHong Kong New Wave"Godfather" directorTan JiamingThe latter invited him to playHe plays a rogue, rough-and-tumble gambler father.

Mr. Tam said Mr. Kwok had a "neighborhood vibe" and was particularly affectionate when dealing with grass-roots characters.

Guo Fucheng once again completely surrendered himself to this dark and struggling lower-level figure, without saying a word on the set, and was even speculated by the media to be suffering from depression.

　

The hardest part was the last crying scene. "I had to do the longest crying scene ever, and I had to cry for two minutes straight, and I started crying before the camera could roll over, and I couldn’t stop until the machine couldn’t shoot me, because it felt completely visceral, and then I really felt the tragedy of this character," Guo Fucheng said.

The crying scene at the end of "Father and Son"

"Father and Son" allowed Guo Fucheng to win the Best Actor award again, and also allowed him to truly find a way to break through his acting skills: by breaking the shell of his idol, the character will naturally emerge from the cocoon.From this perspective, in 2011It is undoubtedly a bigger breakthrough for Guo Fucheng. In the play, he plays Zhao Jieyi, a farmer in northern Shaanxi who is suffering from "fever" but still longs for love.

Guo Fucheng learned the northern Shaanxi dialect two months in advance and insisted on speaking all his lines by himself. After filming for more than ten hours a day, he would wear a scruffy suit and a disheveled chicken coop head, and eat and live with the old farmers in the village.

In "Favorite", he and Zhang Ziyi jointly contributed many highlights. Facing the roaring train, Zhao Jieyi ran and sang: "I am God’s godfather, you see if I am decent or not", full of primitive life tension.

At the end, after Shang Qinqin passed away, Zhao Jieyi picked up the sickle and slashed at his thigh. The complex emotions of the extreme pain of the body and the mind were intertwined by Guo Fucheng, which was particularly touching.

"Favorite" shortlisted Guo Fucheng for the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, and three years later, he won the Academy Award for Best Actor trophy. In ten years, Guo Fucheng won the recognition of several major awards in the Chinese film industry, and also completed the transformation from idol to actor as promised.

When filming "Father and Son," Tan Jiaming told Guo Fucheng that actors must play more difficult roles. This also became his motto: always seek different roles, always pursue self-breakthrough.Even if he is also a detective, he is in "Three Forks"withThey also contributed a completely different performance.

In the "Cold War" series, Guo Fucheng plays Liu Jiehui, a high-ranking police commissioner, who abides by principles and is righteous. In the face-to-face drama with Liang Jiahui, he is full of aura and does not fall behind at all.

In, he also challenged the double-sided character of counterfeit banknote offender Li Wen, and joined forces with Chow Yun-fat to contribute a constantly reversing high-energy show.

Guo Fucheng once compared Liang Jiahui to himself: "He is a natural actor himself, and I was trained in the later stage, and I slowly found the state step by step."Indeed, Guo Fucheng’s body embodies the excellent qualities of the older generation of Hong Kong artists: pragmatism, hard work, and self-discipline.

He can use ten years to fill in all the qualities of a top idol, or he can use another ten years to break them down one by one and learn to be an actor from scratch.

Guo Fucheng, who just started his career, wrote: "Artists are part of the entertainment’business’. Since they have a similar role to’commodities’, how can anyone blame anyone for putting the best-selling products in the most conspicuous place, and the lack of interest aside?"It is this sobriety that makes Guo Fucheng not dare to relax along the way, constantly enriching his self-worth, and not giving any opportunity to leave himself behind in any era.

Outside of the stage and screen, Guo Fucheng loves racing, because in the end, racing is a competition between the driver and himself, a game of mentality and control.At the age of 55, Guo Fucheng, who is still obsessed with breaking through, is he not racing against himself?The era of the "Four Heavenly Kings" has long come to an end, but Guo Fucheng’s second half has just started.
