In the finals of the "Annual Comedy Competition", the "Dream Runner-up" composed of Jiang Long and Zhang Chi finally became the champion, and Xi Ti won the first place in the "Comedy Partner of the Year". At first, however, perhaps no one could have expected the makeshift duo to perform so stunningly. The reason why the two people who passively got together were named "Runner-up in Pursuit of Dreams" is not because they have ambitions and expectations for the ranking of the competition, but because Jiang Long has participated in the lowest-rated movie in the history of Douban, "DreamIng Showbiz", and Zhang Chi has won the runner-up of "Avenue of Stars". In the words of Jiang Long and Zhang Chi, one of them is a "waist actor" who has been in the industry for many years, and the other is a "foot and neck actor" who is a cross-border comedy from opera. This seemingly "low-matched" pair has almost gone all the way high and high, becoming the backbone of the "three plates and big axe" community. They have repeatedly "desperately encountered life", carrying huge pressure and endless anxiety before each time on stage, and even once cried out "too difficult" on the spot, but the final work turned the tide with super high scores several times.
It is not difficult to find that most of the works of Jiang Long and Zhang Chi have a similar core, that is, the love and obsession of a small person. In "This Killer Is Not Cold", Jiang Long is a killer with musical dreams, who will be mad at the hostages for singing badly, and when they hear the music, they can't help but sing and revel in it, and finally the hostages take advantage of this weakness of his love of music to successfully escape. In "The Last Lesson", Jiang Long brought in his own personal experience, the former "acting class representative" after graduation to play the chamber of zombies to make a living, did not expect that the player he met was his teacher. Even in such a moment of "social death", the "drama fan" teacher still tirelessly teaches him how to shape a unique zombie. The teacher's pure passion for the performing arts also evokes memories of his original intentions as a student. The most tearful thing is "Ten Years of Gong offstage", from zhang chi of primary school Peking opera is not appreciated, accidentally crossed back to childhood, tried every means to persuade Jiang Long to play the "little Zhang Chi" to change careers, and finally, crossed back to the current Zhang Chi on the talk show stage without applause and cheers, but after facing Li Mai's silence for a while, he once again firmly opened his voice - because the childhood self still chose to be loyal to love.
In these works, Jiang Long's performance will always bring great surprises. In "This Killer Is Not Cold", he showed his singing skills, in "The Last Lesson" he showed amazing body control and dance skills; in "Ten Years of Work Offstage", he learned Peking Opera with a board and eyes; "Hot Search Booking" let us see that this "treasure actor" can also play the piano... Why is it that insisting on love is always the theme of the "Dream Runner-up" group? Turning over the resume of "waist actor" Jiang Long, it seems to be able to find the answer: Jiang Long graduated from the Beijing Film Academy in 2016, and obtained excellent graduates and research qualifications. Since then, he has played supporting roles in many well-known film and television works, including "Full-time Master", "Fu Shao", "Together" and so on. In the hit drama "Wind Rises Luoyang" at the end of 2021, the role of Bailang played by him also has a bright performance. This "waist actor" has a solid foundation and excellent acting skills enough to rank among the "head", but he is always in a state of "being selected by the industry". In the "Annual Comedy Contest", he revealed that his film contract "has a last meal and no end" - "Zombie 26" in "The Last Lesson" experiences embarrassing reality, why is it not a portrayal of himself? Every expression of love comes from a sense of truth. Fortunately, after being seen by more audiences through this stage, we will definitely see the glow of this "waist actor", and I believe that Jiang Long in the future will continue to interpret the phrase "love can withstand the long years".
Meat Song ("Entertainment Capital" reporter): When I first noticed Jiang Long, I saw that he played Bailang in "The Wind Rises luoyang", and at that time I thought that this actor was fresh-faced, but he had recognition and acted well. Then there is the later "Annual Comedy Competition", the sense of faith and plasticity are very strong, on the stage, the ability to let the audience's eyes unconsciously follow him, has been he and Zhang Chi's pure enjoyment version of the work included in the second brush list. He is an actor with a sense of conviction, an optimistic and positive attitude towards life, and a serious and rigorous attitude towards comedy. Growing rapidly in the "Annual Comedy Competition", each stage performance not only makes people laugh and cry, but also constantly triggers the audience's thinking. He works as a comedian, but not just as a comedian.
