"Wulin Gaiden" used to be a childhood memory in many people's hearts, and Mo Xiaobei in the play was eccentric, lively and cute, which left a deep impression on the audience. But who would have thought that Wang Shasha, the "national sister" of the year, is now 32 years old.
With the passage of time, the former child stars have chosen different life paths. Yang Zi, Guan Xiaotong and Wu Lei, who debuted at the same time as Wang Shasha, have now gained a firm foothold in the entertainment industry.
Yang Zi has successfully become a first-line actress with many popular TV series such as "Fragrant Honey Sinks Like Frost" and "Dear, Loved". Her popularity remains high, and her popularity continues unabated. Although Guan Xiaotong's development is not as smooth as Yang Zi's, he also has his own foothold.
She is resident in the variety show "Ace vs. Ace", coupled with her relationship with the popular traffic star Lu Han, so that she has always been active in the public eyeAs for Wu Lei, his resources can be described as superior, and the commercial value is quite high, he has successively cooperated with popular actresses such as Di Lieba and Zhao Lusi, and starred in many popular TV series, and the popularity has been high.
In contrast, Wang Shasha gradually became blurred in the audience's sight, except for Mo Xiaobei in "Wulin Gaiden", she seems to have no other roles that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Even the brilliant performance in the acclaimed TV series "Mountains and Seas" many years ago did not attract enough attention, and the audience's attention was more focused on the other actors.
Standing at the 32-year-old point of her life, Wang Shasha fell into deep thinking. There was a hint of confusion in her eyes, but more of determination. She knows that her acting career has just begun, and there are infinite possibilities in the future.
Although her current situation is not as good as that of her peers, she has not given up her love and pursuit of acting.
Looking back on the past, the corners of Wang Shasha's mouth flashed a helpless smile. She knows that in this fast-changing entertainment industry, the aura of child stars will eventually disappear, and what can really stand on her feet for a long time is still to rely on strength and persistence.
This is what she has been working towards.
During the mass-popular "Wulin Gaiden" and Wang Shasha's acting career was at its peak, she made an unexpected decision, that is, to leave the screen temporarily and study wholeheartedly.
This decision has confused many people, but Wang Shasha upholds her own beliefs and principles in her heart, and she knows that in order to develop in the entertainment industry for a long time, a solid cultural foundation and professional skills are an indispensable foundation.
However, Wang's path to education was not all smooth sailing. Although she is an art candidate, she knows that in order to get into a top acting school, her grades in cultural classes are also crucial.
To this end, she has made unimaginable efforts, studying hard day and night, trying to strike a balance between art exams and cultural classes.
It backfired, and Wang Shasha was not admitted to Beijing Film Academy because of her appearance, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to her. But Wang Shasha did not give up because of this, she adjusted her mentality and finally chose Shanghai Theater Academy.
In the process of studying at the Shanghai Theater Academy, Wang Shasha showed a unique attitude towards learning. Instead of indulging in campus romance or playing games like other classmates, she focused on acting studies.
She studied her acting skills hard and worked hard, which was unanimously recognized by her teachers and classmates, and she won many honors and awards during her time in school.
When she graduated from college, Wang Shasha was full of longing, imagining that she could return to the screen and start a bright new chapter in her starry journey. However, the harsh reality is far beyond her imagination.
She has no prominent background, nor does she have outstanding appearance, and she has hit a wall again and again in auditions, and she can't find a role that suits her.
Wang Shasha will be heartbroken every time she is rejected from acting, and even begin to question whether her choice is correct. At this time, she always thinks of the professional knowledge and skills she learned in school, and she knows that they are her most valuable treasure.
Looking back on her experience in her study years, Wang Shasha's eyes flashed with a complicated look. She didn't regret her choice, as that experience made her acting more solid.
However, at the same time, she also has to face the cruelty of reality: in this entertainment industry, strength is important, but it is not the only success factor.
Although Wang Shasha's acting career has not been smooth, she still firmly believes that the knowledge and skills accumulated in school will be useful one day in the future. She knows that as a real actor, she needs to have not only the external glamour, but also the inner depth and accumulation.
This firm belief is the source of motivation for her to persist in moving forward.
In this era of looking at faces, Wang Shasha's appearance has become the biggest difficulty for her on the road to acting. A few years ago, she finally ushered in an opportunity and starred in an idol drama. She was full of anticipation, thinking that this would be the perfect opportunity to show off her acting skills.
However, the facts gave her a heavy slap in the face.
The audience's focus did not fall on the performance, but only on the appearance. Social networks are full of comments such as "I can't bring myself into the female lead", "I even sympathize with the male lead", etc.
These sharp remarks were like sharp knives, piercing Wang Shasha's heart deeply.
Wang Shasha once fell into a trough in the face of a huge blow, and she hid in her room alone and cried. But soon, she wiped away her tears and regained the courage to face difficulties. She deeply understands that in this highly competitive industry, vulnerability is an unrealistic luxury, and only being strong can keep you moving forward.
In this environment, many friends have suggested that Wang Shasha consider plastic surgery in order to broaden her acting path. However, Wang Shasha did not hesitate to reject these suggestions. She firmly believes that actors should rely on strength to speak, not to win by appearance.
This firm belief makes her a little different in the impetuous entertainment industry, but she has also won the respect of many senior actors.
Wang Shasha's experience is like Yang Zi's story. Before Yang Zi wanted to apply for film school, her father once asked Song Dandan for advice. Song Dandan said directly: "Don't let the child go her way, her appearance is not good."
These words dealt a big blow to Yang Zi, but they also became her motivation to move forward.
Today's Yang Zi has changed her image through plastic surgery and has stepped into the ranks of first-line actresses. On the other hand, Wang Shasha chose to adhere to the path of authenticity and proved herself with her own strength.
Every time she stands in front of the mirror, Wang Shasha always takes a serious look at her face. She understands that she may never be able to become a beauty in the eyes of the public, but she values being an actor with a soul more.
This persistence makes her a little unique in the competitive entertainment industry, but it has also become her most cherished quality.
Although Wang Shasha has paid a huge price in this era dominated by appearance, she deeply believes that as long as she continues to persevere, there will eventually be Bole who knows how to appreciate her talent.
In the TV series "Mountains and Seas", Wang Shasha's performance is deeply loved by the audience. Although her glow was overshadowed by other actors, this did not shake her love for acting and confidence in her abilities.
She is convinced that as long as she continues to hone her acting skills, she will eventually usher in her own highlight moment.
In the contest between appearance and strength, Wang Shasha chose a more difficult path. Although the road is very bumpy, she firmly believes that with perseverance, she has the possibility to go further on the path of being an actor, and she will not lose the essence of an actor with only her appearance.
Wang Shasha gradually understood the cruel reality of the entertainment industry in this era when traffic is king. Powerful actors are often ignored, and this phenomenon makes her feel helpless.
Capital always pays attention to and pursues those stars who have a large number of fans, even if the acting skills of these newcomers need to be improved. Wang Shasha witnessed with her own eyes that some newcomers who lack acting skills have the opportunity to play important roles just by virtue of their huge fan base, but those actors who have been working silently for many years can only wait quietly in the corner.
What makes Wang Shasha feel chilled is that the phenomenon of "related households" in the entertainment industry is becoming more and more serious. Many old drama bones are quite dissatisfied with this. These capitalists will choose the children of their investors to participate in TV dramas, regardless of whether they have acting skills and image.
This not only hit hard-working actors like Wang Shasha, but also made the audience lose confidence in domestic dramas.
It is precisely because of these two reasons that a powerful actress like Wang Shasha, who has no prominent background and no outstanding appearance, cannot find a suitable way out. She has been turned down for roles on several occasions because of her looks, which has left her very frustrated.
Faced with such a reality, Wang Shasha will also feel powerless and confused. But because of this, she has strengthened her belief that true art should not be limited by flow and relationships, and she also needs to use her works to represent her beliefs.
Wang Shasha deeply feels that the current TV series are becoming more and more unpopular, largely because of the actors' poor acting skills, which makes the audience feel very embarrassed and uncomfortable to watch. On the other hand, those actors who are really powerful are biased by capital because they have no popularity.
This situation made her feel both helpless and indignant.
Despite many setbacks, Wang Shasha never gave up on her dreams. She firmly believes that as long as she is determined and persevers to the end, there will eventually be people who are good at discovering talents to favor her talents.
She looks forward to the day when she will have the opportunity to showcase her talents and prove that years of hard work and dedication have not been in vain.
Although Wang Shasha has experienced many setbacks, she has never given up on her dream of acting. She performed well in the drama "Mountains and Seas", and due to the lack of enough wide attention, most of the audience's attention was attracted to Rezai.
However, she was not discouraged by this, but strengthened her determination and determined to redouble her efforts.
Wang Shasha often draws strength from Zhang Songwen's stories, Zhang Songwen had a decades-long incubation period before "Hurricane" became popular, he played small roles, and always insisted on honing his acting skills.
When the opportunity finally came, he conquered all the audience with his superb acting skills.
This story has brought great encouragement to Wang Shasha. She understands that her 32-year-old is still young, and there are infinite possibilities. As long as you persist in working hard and stick to your original intention, your own stage will eventually come.
Wang Shasha may sometimes encounter bad luck and has not yet found a suitable platform and opportunity to let more audiences see her strength. But she always believes that success requires not only hard work, but also waiting for the right opportunity.
Standing at the crossroads of life, Wang Shasha's eyes flashed with determination. She knows that there may be a long way to go, and that there will be more setbacks and doubts. But she is ready to use her strength and persistence to prove to everyone: In this entertainment industry, real acting skills and love for acting will eventually shine the most beautifully.
