Li Naiwen was born in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in 1974, and his mother was an excellent drama actress. When Li Naiwen was five years old, the whole family moved back to Tianjin to settle down.
Although Li Naiwen was exposed to stage art since he was a child due to his family environment, this clever and active child had a dream of becoming a scientist deep down.
Whenever he followed his mother to the theater and watched the actors on stage, he could not hide his excitement and curiosity, and secretly hoped that one day he would be able to operate those magical lights and set props with his own hands.
However, fate is often full of unknowns and accidents. One day, in order to make her son happy, Li Naiwen's mother actually brought him to the stage, who was only five years old, to perform.
Who knows, this child who was born with a drama idiot was not afraid, but bold and energetic, which surprised the audience.
's mother saw Li Naiwen's potential, so she began to follow her steps: "Do you want to be an actor with your mother?" If you want, I won't force you to go to school.
The young and old Li Naiwen seems to have seen through the charming style of the drama world, and he agreed without hesitation. In this way, the scientific dream came to an end, and at the age of five, he became the youngest member of the troupe.
Thankfully, despite choosing a completely different path in life, Li Naiwen's strong interest in science has not been extinguished. On the contrary, over the next decade or so, he often reflected on whether he was better suited to a career in scientific research.
When he was in high school, Li Naiwen even spoke bluntly and insisted on applying for the Beijing Film Academy.
In the year of the college entrance examination, Li Naiwen followed the call of his heart and resolutely applied for the Beijing Film Academy. As a "drama spirit" who has been influenced by his mother and nurtured since childhood, he has doubts about whether he can get his wish.
Fortunately, luck favored this dream that had been shaken several times, and Li Naiwen was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy that he had long-cherished in one fell swoop. But just when he was immersed in the joy of being admitted to his dream school, a hammer slammed into his simple inner world.
It turned out that he only obtained the admission qualification of self-financed students of the Central Academy of Drama, and compared with those publicly-funded students, he had to pay 5,000 yuan a year for tuition fees that were almost several times that of others.
The sneering eyes tore at Li Naiwen's self-esteem and pride.
In this way, a college career that should have been full of sunshine was clouded with a little haze. Li Naiwen often falls in love alone, struggling with the trouble of "whether I chose the wrong path in the first place".
Fortunately, whenever he fell into confusion, his mother's expectant gaze would turn the tide and rekindle his passion for acting.
During college, Li Naiwen seized the opportunity to practice his acting skills everywhere, but fate was like a joke, and his three large-scale drama performances all failed.
In the face of these merciless mockery, Li Naiwen's self-confidence fell into an unprecedented bottom. He even doubted that he really had the talent and perseverance to be a great actor.
The repeated defeats in college were like a hammer, completely crushing Li Naiwen's self-confidence. He began to wonder if he was really fit for the job, whether he should give up his dream and choose a more certain path in life.
Whenever he watched his roommates leave the campus with joy during the holidays, Li Naiwen would feel doubly lost. He was always left alone in his dormitory, repeatedly examining his gloomy face in the mirror, as if looking for some kind of answer to regain his confidence.
For a while, Li Naiwen even began to dislike his profession. During recess, he was always alone and bored wandering around the campus, aimlessly.
Occasionally, when he met an enthusiastic classmate, the frequent loud encouragement could only barely squeeze out a helpless smile on his face.
If once upon a time, Li Naiwen's desire to become an actor was so passionate, then at this moment, his heart is like being poured with a basin of cold water, which completely chills his heart.
His tired body and mind were tormented, and he even had the idea of transferring schools once or twice.
Fortunately, whenever Li Naiwen is in a desperate situation, the familiar figure of his mother will linger in his dreams.
Yes, it was his mother who took a fancy to his teachable innocence that gave him the opportunity to stand out among the crowd and get the great luck of stepping on the stage in person.
In this way, in the face of blows again and again, Li Naiwen put away the timidity and hesitation in his heart and cheered up again. He secretly decided that he would tear through the fog with his own hands and pursue his dreams.
The difficult years during college were like a long hibernation for Li Naiwen. But just when he was questioned by the outside world and jokingly called "declining god" and "big drama killer" by his roommates, the gift of fate finally came as scheduled.
In 1998, the drama "Rhino in Love" starring Li Naiwen caused a sensation as soon as it was released. Although other actors on the stage became famous because of this, Li Naiwen was only called "the young man who sold toothpaste" by the audience.
Whenever a director interviews him, he will always call him "toothpaste seller" to show his familiarity, which makes Li Naiwen quite helpless. But he didn't get discouraged, and he didn't give up, but tried to turn the nickname into a spur, pushing himself to burst out stronger energy in the creation of each new character.
After "Rhino in Love", Li Naiwen's career finally set sail. Every year, he spends an average of 300 days on the set, and he always does his best to interpret each role perfectly.
Along the way, Li Naiwen has created a total of 114 characters with different characteristics, ranging from peasants and workers to intellectuals. The staff of the crew witnessed his dedication and enthusiasm for the acting career, and bluntly said that Li Naiwen is a professional actor who "can control any role".
Whenever he returns home at the end of work, Li Naiwen will always proudly screen the film and television works he starred in for his parents. Although he is only a small role, in the eyes of his parents, his light shines like a thousand rays.
With the support of his family, Li Naiwen became more and more indifferent and no longer cared too much about personal fame and fortune.
Although his career is getting better, Li Naiwen has never been complacent because of this. On the contrary, he put all his heart and soul into the creation of the characters, determined to show the inherent uniqueness of each character with the greatest sincerity and enthusiasm.
In a year, Li Naiwen spent 300 days in the crew for filming. From peasants to intellectuals, from embarrassed low-class characters to glamorous upper classes, he has created a variety of characters.
Sometimes, as soon as the filming cycle of a TV series ends, he devotes himself to the crew of the next work, and even the Spring Festival has to be spent on the set with hard work.
I remember that once, Li Naiwen played a poor young man from a rural background in a drama. In order to better understand and experience the inner world of the characters, he deliberately went to a poor village near the set on the way to shoot and lived in a small farm yard with quite backward living conditions.
It was an old adobe house, with a thick layer of dust on the blue tiles, and spider webs could be seen at the corners of the walls. At night, Li Naiwen and the owner's family rested in a small bedroom, and they were inevitably disturbed by the footsteps of rats.
The homeowner's family has almost no valuable belongings, and the parents work hard all year round to find food and clothing.
Living in such a poor environment, Li Naiwen felt depressed and heavy. However, it was this life experience full of simplicity and struggle that gave him a deeper understanding and grasp of the inner world of the characters in the play.
Therefore, during the filming, he interpreted the character's gestures, joys, sorrows and sorrows very well, and won the praise of countless audiences.
The director is full of praise for Li Naiwen's professionalism, and he often says: "If you gather actors from all over the country, Li Naiwen will definitely be the most diligent and dedicated to his own work."
Although his career is in full swing, Li Naiwen's love life has been questioned and speculated by the outside world. It is rumored that he is in love with actress Yan Bingyan, and the two often have dinner, shopping and shopping together, and have a close relationship.
In fact, the relationship between Li Naiwen and Yan Bingyan is purely close friends. In a cooperative drama, the two needed to shoot a kiss scene, and Li Naiwen at that time seemed at a loss, which attracted Yan Bingyan's reprimand.
It wasn't until later that Yan Bingyan learned that Li Naiwen had never been in love, and the kiss was the first time he had experienced it.
It can be seen that Li Naiwen is simple and simple in emotional affairs. He is not as hard-hearted as other actors, but has an unquenchable admiration and longing.
He once said, "As long as I identify someone, I will love and cherish her with all my heart for the rest of my life."
Li Naiwen has always hidden his love life behind the curtain, and the outside world lacks understanding about it. It wasn't until 2012 that an actress named Wang Likun suddenly announced at the premiere that she and Li Naiwen were actually in a cohabitation relationship.
This caused an uproar at the scene, and Li Naiwen was dumbfounded at the time, and the expression on his face all revealed the embarrassment of being disturbed.
Fortunately, Wang Likun quickly explained that they actually only live in the same community, not really living together. This can be regarded as resolving an embarrassment. When Li Naiwen's parents heard about this, they were also very anxious, and immediately took a young woman to the crew, hoping that their son would take a fancy to her.
