In 2019, the entertainment industry can be described as lively! According to reports, the Film Academy of Shanghai University announced the hiring of Zhang Jie to teach, and this news attracted the attention of the whole network.
Zhang Jie is an undergraduate, how can he become a professor all of a sudden? The operation is too wild, right? Everybody is asking.
Shanghai University came forward to explain why Zhang Jie was hired as a distinguished professor: he has made great contributions in a specific field.
Well, it looks like it's looking for a step for itself. However, Zhang Jie is indeed a very conscientious and responsible professor, who often gives public lectures and uses his experience to teach students.
Huang Lei, the title of "Zhiduoxing" is not called casually. He is not only a professor at Beijing Film Academy, he has taught Yao Chen, Du Chun, Haiqing and many other stars, and he is also an excellent actor, director and screenwriter.
He is known as the "King of a Thousand Faces", and his classes are always full, and students say that his classes are humorous and full of dry goods.
Let's talk about Chen Hao again, she starred in Ah Zi in "Dragon Babu". She is not only a beautiful actress, but also a top student. During her pregnancy, she was successfully admitted to the Central Academy of Drama and stayed on to teach after receiving her master's degree.
Although she was once mistaken for a professor who made a fuss, this did not affect her dedication to teaching.
In addition, Zhao Wenzhuo, a kung fu star, was also a teacher at Beijing Sport University. Every time a new movie is released, he will rush to the school to share his filmmaking experience with the younger students.
Zhao Wenzhuo said: People who practice martial arts hope to pass on their martial arts.
However, is it so good for an artist to take on the role of a teacher? That's right, He Jiong's experience is the best example. This famous host, whom we all call "Mr. He", is also a teacher in the Department of Arabic at Beijing University of Foreign Chinese.
However, in 2015, he was reported for "eating empty salary" and was accused of hosting programs outside all day long and not teaching normally. He Jiong simply resigned from his job and focused on the development of the entertainment industry.
Therefore, it is not easy for an artist to take on the role of a teacher, and it is necessary to strike a balance between acting and teaching, while also facing public skepticism.
Do you think artists are suitable for teachers?
When it comes to artists serving as teachers, we must mention He Jiong, the "top streamer".
He Jiong is a talented person, who is good at hosting and can easily control multiple Chinese, and can be called an all-rounder. He was also sent to study at a university, a level of knowledge that even Sa Beining admired.
However, He Jiong's journey as a teacher was not all smooth sailing.
In 2015, someone jumped out to report He Jiong for eating empty salary, accusing him of only hosting the show outside and not teaching normally, which caused an uproar, and He Jiong fell into the whirlpool of public opinion.
In the end, He Jiong directly resigned from his position as a teacher and devoted himself to developing in the entertainment industry. This incident made everyone realize rationally: it is not easy for artists to try to be teachers, they need to pursue their acting careers while devoting themselves to teaching, and they will be condemned if they are not careful.
However, there are indeed some who are able to blend these two identities perfectly. For example, Liu Huan, the "national singer" is also a professor at China's University of International Business and Economics.
When he was in class, the classroom was always full.
This teacher not only gave a good lecture, but also had a special sense of humor, and was able to play with the students, which made the students like it very much.
Liu Huan not only takes classes by himself, but also often serves as a judge for some singing competitions to tap outstanding musical talents. Zhao Lei, who is now in the limelight, is what he strongly supports.
Speaking of Zhang Songwen, everyone must be no stranger. His acting skills in "Hurricane" are impressive. In fact, he has long been a teacher at Beijing Film Academy. Although his acting career has been tepid, he has never given up teaching.
His student Lin Chiling is already popular in half the sky, and he is still working silently, not affected by fame and fortune. Even after "Hurricane" became popular, Zhang Songwen still did not forget his identity as a teacher, and he frequently returned to school to communicate with students and give lectures to them.
In addition to being a director, Huang Lei also has rich experience in teaching positions, and has cultivated many outstanding students for Beijing Film Academy, including Yao Chen, Du Chun, Haiqing and other superstars.
Huang Lei said: "Teaching and acting are both essential for me, and I will continue to stick to the career I love."
However, not all artists can do a good job of balancing like Liu Huan, Zhang Songwen, and Huang Lei, for example, some people may choose to give up their teaching positions in the end like He Jiong.
Although Chen Hao obtained a master's degree from the Central Academy of Drama and stayed on as a teacher, she later devoted more time and energy to her acting career.
In 2021, Kaiyuan, a member of the TF family, was mistaken for a university professor and made a joke. This tells us that even if you are a star, it is not so easy to become a professor.
It is quite difficult for an artist to be a teacher. First of all, it is necessary to balance both acting and teaching, which requires a high level of time management skills for artists. Secondly, the teaching work of artists is often questioned by the public, and this pressure may affect the mood and teaching enthusiasm of artists.
You see, some people choose to quit and leave in the midst of difficulties, while others choose to persevere. That's everyone's choice.
The news of Zhao Wenzhuo's return to school to teach has attracted widespread attention. He is a well-known martial arts star, and there has been a lot of speculation about whether he will be able to take on the role of a teacher.
When it comes to martial arts stars, Zhao Wenzhuo is undoubtedly a name that cannot be ignored. Since participating in the filming of the "Huang Feihong" series of movies, Zhao Wenzhuo has conquered the audience through his strength and created many classic images with his "fists".
Zhao Wenzhuo has been attached to his alma mater since graduating from Beijing Sports University. Although his profession is to act in martial arts, he does not only fight and kill, but also plays his own achievements step by step through "fists".
In his early days, he won various competitions and later became popular for his wonderful performances in the "Once Upon a Time" series.
But Zhao Wenzhuo has not forgotten his roots.
You know what? Zhao Wenzhuo often returns to Beijing Sports to teach classes! Whenever a new movie is released, he is always the first to return to school and bring good news to the younger students.
Zhao Wenzhuo said that people who practice martial arts have the desire to pass on their martial arts. His passion for teaching has made him highly respected in the entertainment industry and education.
In today's increasingly scarce world of action actors, teachers like Zhao Wenzhuo undoubtedly point out a path for the future of martial arts stars.
Zhao Wenzhuo's "amphibious" life is actually not so easy. He has to film and teach at the same time, and his schedule is very tight. Still, he persevered.
In fact, not only Zhao Wenzhuo, but also many artists are trying their best to balance their acting careers and teaching work. For example, Zhang Jie, although he was questioned about "too much water", he still seriously went to Shanghai University to hold open classes.
Look at Huang Lei again, he has taught at Beijing Film Academy for so many years and has cultivated many excellent students.
These examples tell us that as long as you are sincere and loving, it is not difficult for an artist to become a teacher. The key is that, like Zhao Wenzhuo, he has a student in his heart and sincerely wants to impart knowledge. Do you still remember the beautiful Ah Zi in the TV series "Dragon Babu"? is played by Chen Hao. Not only is her acting skills online, but she is also a hidden scholar. However, her status as a scholar caused a big oolong, which once confused the entire entertainment industry.
You know what? During Chen Hao's pregnancy, she was admitted to the Central Academy of Drama and successfully obtained a master's degree. This is even more exciting than her acting skills in the play! After graduating, she chose to stay at the school as a teacher and lecture to students.
In 2021, the word "Chen Hao" appeared on the list of professors released by Chinese opera, and as soon as this incident came out, public opinion exploded. Some netizens asked suspiciously: "When did Chen Hao become a professor?" While other netizens think that this speed is too fast, some even question: "Is it going through the back door?" These voices immediately put Chen on the cusp.
Later, the Chinese opera immediately clarified and deleted Chen Hao's name, which turned out to be a mistake. This matter is so troublesome, it is estimated that Chen Hao wants to find a crack in the ground to get into. However, this incident also shows us: even if you are a star, it is not so easy to become a professor.
Chen Hao did not give up easily, but insisted on running at both ends of the entertainment industry and the academic circle, filming and teaching at the same time, even if he was busy, he enjoyed it.
There are actually many "amphibious" artists like Chen Hao, such as Huang Lei. He is known as a "scholar" artist, who can do everything in acting, directing, and screenwriting, and also serves as a teacher at Beijing Film Academy.
His students include Yao Chen, Du Chun, and Haiqing.
Let's talk about Zhang Songwen again, he performed well in the TV series "Hurricane", and he is a veritable acting school. Although he has never been popular in the entertainment industry, he has never given up his dream of being an actor.
He has taught at the Beijing Film Academy for many years and has trained many outstanding students.
Although he has now become popular because of the drama "Hurricane", he has not forgotten his identity as a teacher.
These examples show us that the boundaries between artists and scholars can be broken down, as long as people like Chen Hao, Huang Lei, and Zhang Songwen maintain enthusiasm and dedication to both fields.
Speaking of old artists, Li Baotian is a figure that cannot be left unmentioned. The role of Xilale he created in "Divine Doctor Xilaile" made him a household name.
Li Baotian's story can be traced back to 1978, when he was successfully admitted to the Central Academy of Drama. Although the teacher at the time thought that no matter his image or strength, he didn't seem to be suitable for being an actor, but Li Baotian did not give up, but worked harder.
After Li Baotian graduated and stayed at the Central Academy of Drama as a teacher, after accumulating 8 years of teaching experience, he met his mentor Zhao Baogang and participated in the work "Addicted", thus officially entering the showbiz.
Since then, Li Baotian's creative enthusiasm has been out of control, and classic works such as "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" and "Divine Doctor Xilaile" have come out one after another.
However, despite becoming a celebrity, Li Baotian still did not give up teaching, his "Qinggao" was well-known in the industry, and he resolutely refused to accept "bad movies", which also led to fewer and fewer opportunities for him to perform in theater in his later years.
However, even if he was only in name, he never gave up teaching and always did his duty.
Li Baotian is now in his seventies, but his love for education has never waned. Isn't that the spirit we need to pass on?
In fact, there are countless veteran artists as good as Li Baotian, such as Wang Zhiwen, who worked in the Research Institute of the Central Academy of Drama for many years, and did not begin to transform into an actor until he met Zhao Bao.
Speaking of Zhang Songwen, he still maintained his identity as a teacher at Beijing Film Academy after he became popular in "Hurricane".
The perseverance of these veteran artists has injected a breath of fresh air into the entertainment industry, and through their stories, they tell us that acting and education can complement each other.
Li Baotian has a good saying: "Being an actor is my profession, and teaching and educating people is my responsibility." This sentence undoubtedly also expresses the voices of many artists and teachers. They shine brightly on the stage, and they also teach by word and deed on the podium, transmitting knowledge and solving doubts.
After reading the stories of these old artists, do you have a new understanding of the entertainment industry? It turns out that behind the countless glamorous and glamorous, there are still so many teachers who are silently paying!
