As we all know, if you want to gain a firm foothold in the extremely competitive circle of the entertainment industry, it is difficult to achieve certain results without a strong backstage and resources.
The star artists we are familiar with, such as Chen He, Zhang Yishan, Xie Tingfeng, etc., are all famous star second generations, and they have developed well in the circle with the resources and connections of their parents.
But not all the second generation of stars can develop, such as actor Chen Yipi is a second generation of stars who is not popular.
Chen Yipi is the son of Chen Baoguo, a performing artist and a national first-class actor, in addition to his father being a famous actor who has spread all over the country, Chen Yipi's mother, Zhao Kui'e, is also a very good actor.
In order to win him over, Chen Baoguo did not hesitate to pull down his son to ask for someone, and took him to cooperate with 10 plays, but even if the resources and connections were too good, Chen Yipi was always in a tepid state.
The same actor, compared to his father Chen Baoguo, how can Chen Yipi, who is not popular, really be worse?
Now that he has become a heart disease in his father, is it really just because his career is not good?
Chen Yipi was originally named Chen Yuemu, nicknamed Late End, born in 1983 in Beijing to an acting family, his father is recognized by the public as the strength of the old drama bone Chen Baoguo, Chen Baoguo starred in "The Gate of the Great Mansion", "Daming Dynasty", "Old Tavern" and other works, has become a classic in the hearts of countless audiences.
Although his mother Zhao Kui'e's development is not as good as Chen Baoguo's, she has nothing to say about her acting skills, and she has also participated in popular dramas such as "Last Night's Moon", "Shuxiang Mendi", and "Beijing Smoke And Clouds".
Perhaps because her parents are famous actors, Chen Yipi has been determined to become an actor who brings good works to the audience like her parents when she grows up.
However, for Chen Yipi's idea, his father Chen Baoguo firmly rejected him.
In Chen Baoguo's view, the actor's road is too hard, many people have struggled all their lives and still failed to catch fire, and the son only sees his achievements and fame, and does not see the efforts he has made behind him and the hardships he has experienced.
In order not to let Chen Yipi follow the path of an actor, when he was 14 years old, Chen Baoguo also sent him to study in the United Kingdom in the name of letting him receive a better education.
Probably afraid that Chen Yue would secretly run to study drama during his study in the UK at the end of the year, he only gave his son 5 pounds a week, which is almost 50 yuan for food.
This little money is not to mention to learn acting, even eating a full stomach is also a problem, so when Chen Yipi first arrived in the UK, she could only work and study everywhere and earn money to support herself.
Chen Yipi spent a total of 14 years in the Uk, during which he studied science and engineering, studied mechanical engineering at university, and after completing his undergraduate studies, he pursued graduate school until he got a master's degree, and then he left the UK and returned to China.
He was only 14 years old when he left home, and when he returned from school, he was already 28 years old, according to the idea of his father Chen Baoguo, after more than ten years of tempering and staying away from things related to acting, Chen Yipi should no longer have a connection with his acting career, but the result was exactly the opposite of what he thought.
As early as after being admitted to college, Chen Yipi entered various drama clubs in the school with the mentality of learning, and entered the acting industry through self-study, but he did not tell his father all this.
After returning to China, he tried to do ordinary work in the past according to his father's requirements, and successively worked in planning, design and other companies, but these jobs were not what he really wanted.
Later, he went to Beijing TV to intern without his father, trying to develop in the direction of the host, and as a result, after coming into contact with more and more actors, he found that entering the show business like his father was what he was pursuing.
In order to realize this dream, Chen Yipi ran to Nortel to study directing courses without his father, at the same time, he also secretly interviewed many crews to find opportunities for himself by doing behind the scenes in the crew.
In 2010, he entered the crew of "The Righteous Invincible", holding the position of assistant director, although he is an assistant, but he mainly does some work to organize the script and serve tea and water.
It is worth saying that the actor who starred in this work at that time was his father Chen Baoguo, but both of their father and son did not know that the other party worked in the crew at that time.
Once, Chen Yipi found that the crew was looking for a dragon set actor to play the role of "Dragon Claw" in the play, he felt that this role was very suitable for him, so he immediately found the director and said: "Director, can I try this role?" ”
The director also thought that he was joking, and when he saw that he asked again, he realized that Chen Yipi really wanted to try it.
In order to get this opportunity, Chen Yipi also firmly said to the director: "Well, you give me three days, if you can't do it, you will change people!" ”
When the shooting began, Chen Baoguo saw that it was his son who played against him, and he knew at this time that the other party had never let go of the idea of being an actor.
After the entire shooting process, Chen Baoguo also found that his son was very talented in acting, and although his acting skills were not superb, they were natural and simple.
Thinking that his son has been insisting on this dream for so many years, Chen Baoguo finally let go of the obsession in his heart and agreed to let him enter the development of this industry.
When Chen Yipi finished filming this scene, his performance also surprised the director who gave him the opportunity, and later after the work was broadcast, Chen Yipi, who performed very well in the play, also won the favor of the film and television company and signed him to the subordinate, in this way, he got what he wanted to enter the development of the show business circle.
Since getting his father's consent and successfully entering the show business, Chen Yipi has plunged into his acting career and has successively participated in works such as "Snow Eagle", "Golden Age", "Longhui Dart Bureau" and so on.
In order to allow him to gain a foothold in the show business more quickly, Chen Baoguo also took great pains to praise him, not only introducing the major directors in the circle for him, but also personally accompanying him to shoot a scene.
From "The Doctor Is Invincible" to "Old Farmer" to "Old Chinese Medicine" and so on, Chen Baoguo has cooperated with him in 10 plays in succession.
What is difficult to understand is that although Chen Baoguo has been praising him, and his acting skills have become remarkable with more and more works, he just can't catch fire.
In line with the idea of either being an actor or not being a good actor, in order to make Chen Yipi more popular with the audience, Chen Baoguo has been racking his brains to find a way for him over the years, and Chen Yipi's mother, Zhao Kui'e, has also been helping.
Unfortunately, no matter how much effort the couple has made, Chen Yipi has never been able to get the real recognition of the audience, and whenever everyone mentions him, it is more about him being Chen Baoguo's son and so on.
Chen Yipi is not angry about this, for everyone said that he relies on his father's view, he said bluntly: "Everyone says that I am the son of a star, which proves that my father is successful, and I will not be jealous of my father's success when I am a son." ”
"I can't choose what family I was born into, but there's absolutely no problem with me being born into this family!"
Although Chen Yipi, who has become more and more frustrated and courageous, has not been able to catch fire, this not only did not hit him, but also aroused his determination to become a good actor.
He also firmly stated in front of the media: "I want to learn from my father and be a good actor with my strength." ”
With such an idea, Chen Yipi has still worked hard to develop his acting career in the show business over the years, in addition to participating in the works starring his father, he has also won the favor of many other directors and has been invited to star in many works.
For example, in recent years, he has starred in "Assault and Assault", "Mountains and Rivers Moon Ming", "Armageddon", "Love in the War and Epidemic Period", "Glory and Dreams" and other works are particularly good.
It may be that he has not met a good role, although he has participated in more and more works and roles, his career has still not made much progress, and his acting career is tepid, compared to the career of his father Chen Baoguo and his mother Zhao Kui'e, he can be said to have pulled the hind legs of the whole family.
I don't know if it is because I see that Chen Yipi's acting career has not been able to become popular, Chen Baoguo is no longer eager to see him quickly become popular, what he is more concerned about now is actually Chen Yipi's lifelong event.
Chen Yipi has been studying in the Uk before the age of 28, and has little emotional experience, after returning to China to develop, he is bent on developing his acting career, and he ignores the development of feelings.
Therefore, since he was 35 years old, Chen Baoguo has been urging him to marry, saying to him every time he eats: "Look at you, you are more than 30 years old, I and your mother have already given birth to you at this age, you should think about your own affairs." ”
"Now I don't expect you to develop your career, I just hope you can get married soon..."
Seeing that every time he urged marriage, Chen Yipi was perfunctory, Chen Baoguo later pulled his wife to talk about him together, so that every time he ate with his parents later, once it came to the problem of marriage, Chen Yipi would use the excuse to run away quickly.
In fact, it is not that Chen Yipi does not want to get married, on the contrary, every time he sees his parents who have loved all his life, he hopes to find a suitable person to accompany him for a lifetime.
However, after several emotional experiences, he has never been able to find the right person, so that he is unwilling to settle down, and now he is 39 years old, but he still remains single and unmarried.
Looking at his son's age, but there has been no new progress in feelings, Chen Baoguo is also more and more worried, and now his son's marriage problems have become his heart disease.
However, with the increasing number of persuasions, he now looked at it completely, and since his son was not in a hurry, he would let it go.
Besides, he also knew that such a thing as feelings could not be forced.
Now Chen Yipi still maintains his enthusiasm, insisting and working the road of acting, although his career is still obviously far from his father, he believes that one day he can catch up with his father's footsteps.
As for the emotional aspect, I believe that as long as he meets the right time and the right person, he will always have gains.
