To talk about the most successful transformation from actor to director is Xu Zheng. In fact, after Xu Zheng's "Eight Precepts of the Brilliant Spring Pig", his works are not many. But each one is relatively good in word of mouth and ratings.
His "囧" series has also won many people, under the leadership of Xu Zheng, Huang Bo also actively made movies and prepared "A Good Drama", and to talk about the most popular movies in the previous two years, it is necessary to mention "I am not a medicine god". In this work, the box office reached 3 billion, and many actors became famous because of this play.
We can see that there are some powerful actors in this work. Not only Wang Chuanjun, who has successfully transformed, but even Zhang Yu and Tan Zhuo Wang Yanhui are trying their best to create a plump character. But in addition to these actors, there is also a cute and charming Pastor Liu.
Speaking of the actor who plays Pastor Liu, he is the versatile supporting actor Yang Xinming. When "Medicine God" was first broadcast, some netizens said that Pastor Liu was really not Teacher Jin Shijie? It really seems. Don't say, it's really like, you can't take the traffic route.
From a small drama actor to a sketch actor, from an unknown sketch actor to an unknown film and television drama supporting role, from a small supporting role to a large supporting role to a world-known treasure actor, his path as an actor has gone for more than thirty years. Nowadays, when it comes to playing a big supporting role like what, the old actor Yang Xinming will definitely be on the list, and acting like what is like this is just a basic operation for him.
Born on January 14, 1957 in Xi'an, Yang Xinming joined the Xi'an Drama Theatre in his twenties.
In the 1980s, Xi'an Film Studio was very beautiful in China's film industry, and Xi'an Drama Theatre was once the hometown of Xi'an Film Studio, so personnel exchanges were regular.
In 1986, Yang Xinming starred in his first film "Wild Mountain", thus entering the film and television circle. The film won the Best Feature Film Award at the 6th Golden Rooster Awards for Chinese Cinema, in which Yang Xinming played farmer Ah Cheng.
Yang Xinming did not use the East Wind of the Golden Rooster Award to go down in the film industry, but turned to the field of sketches that had just become popular, after all, the sketches themselves were born out of dramas, and there were similarities between the two in art.
In 1993, Yang Xinming and Yan Shunkai cooperated to perform the sketch "Zhang Sanqiren" at the Spring Festival Gala, which reflected the life of some low-level characters at that time and gained a good reputation. Since then, Yang Xinming has participated in a number of sketches.

In the play, he played Liang Shengmao, an elder in the male no. 2 village, and won the first prize of the fourth shaanxi provincial art festival for this.
In 2006, Yang Xinming collaborated with Shi Guoqing and Guo Da to star in the 40-episode sitcom Xi'an Tiger Family, directed by Yingda and centered around brotherly neighbor families living together.
In 2007, Yang Xinming starred in the drama film "The Promise of A Sister" directed by Ding Hei, in which he played the enthusiastic and helpful boss of the noodle shop, and was nominated for the Best Supporting Actor at the 27th Golden Rooster Awards.

In December 2012, he starred in the anti-war theme TV series "Battle Changsha", which was adapted from the novel of the same name by Howe, in which Yang Xinming played Hu Changning, which became the highest-rated Chinese mainland TV series in the Douban Movies 2014 annual list after the broadcast.
In 2013, Yang Xinming and Feng Yuanzheng cooperated to star in the 38-episode family ethics drama "The Marriage of My Father and Mother" directed by Liu Huining, playing Chen Tonggu in the play; in the same year, he cooperated with Zhu Zhiwen and participated in the anti-war TV series "Great Wall Red", which was based on the Panjiayu Massacre in Fengrun County, Tangshan City, in which Yang Xinming played the master of the plug.
On October 6, 2014, he participated in the premiere of the anti-japanese war-themed TV series "No War in Peiping", which was adapted from Liu Heping's novel of the same name, directed by Kong Sheng and Li Xue, and won the "Magnolia Award" for Best Chinese TV Series.

In June, he cooperated with Jin Dong again, partnering Jin Dong and Bai Baihe, starring in the urban industry drama "Surgical Storm" produced by Noonday Sunshine Pictures, in which he played the role of Zhong Beibei, director of the emergency department.
In July 2018, he participated in the movie "I Am Not a Medicine God" and played Pastor Liu in the film. At that time, when filming the film "I Am Not a Medicine God", Yang Xinming even deliberately went to learn English, but at the age of sixty, he said English lines well, which was really very admirable. Perhaps many people can't remember Yang Xinming's name, but they remember his role, which also reflects the superb acting skills of this person from the side. It is precisely because of his disfiguring acting skills that he has such a rich and full role, which also makes him popular overnight!
When Yang Xinming filmed each role, he carefully pondered the heart of this character and grasped all the details as much as possible. Our beloved Pastor Liu is now 63 years old, but he still loves acting and tirelessly learns acting skills, hoping to bring us more wonderful works in the future. I also wish that Yang Xinming, an old drama bone, can go further in the show business circle.
