In recent years, everyone’s most commented on Huang Xiaoming is, “Huang Xiaoming is even more handsome when he doesn’t act handsome”. Without the publicity of the past, he has become more mature, and few people ridiculed his “oily” acting skills. Instead, “Best Actor Grand Slam” is often mentioned. Huang Xiaoming said with a smile, “This should be a compliment to me, so thank you all first.”

“Fang Jiashu is very witty, I am always slow”

“Stalker” reveals Huang Xiaoming’s identity as a “three-faced lurker” at the beginning of the chapter. He serves as the deputy director of the intelligence department at No. 76 of the Wang Puppet Secret Service Headquarters as a lurker of our party “Du Juan”, and is in danger of being exposed at any time. . At the beginning, Fang Jiashu was dealing with the crisis almost continuously. First, he had to face the desperate situation of being betrayed by his comrades and find out the traitors. However, the sudden appearance of the child bride-in-law Tao Yuling (played by Jiang Xin) and her two children added many challenges to Fang Jiashu. In Huang Xiaoming’s view, the plots of “Stalker” are intertwined, “I think such a story is very rare.”

He said with a smile, in terms of personality, the most similar thing between himself and Fang Jiashu is, “Our colleagues have a good relationship, and we always get along with everyone at work.” As for the difference, “That’s too much! First of all, Fang Jiashu is much smarter and quicker than me, and I am always slow.”

He has studied in Japan and can mingle with the Japanese represented by Shibuya. At the same time, he also has the status of a military command agent. He needs to complete the task assigned by the “Silver Fox” with Su Yalu (played by Wan Qian). In Huang Xiaoming’s view, Fang Jiashu is a very good worker on the secret front of our party. He has been facing various difficulties and complicated situations, and he is under great pressure and responsibility. The relationship between all parties, and the enemy’s wits and courage, so as to complete the tasks assigned by the organization, and provoke conflicts between the military commander, No. 76, and the Japanese, and use the conflicts between them to obtain more intelligence for our party. “Such intelligence and ability, as well as the charisma of the character are impressive.”

As reflected in the role, Fang Jiashu is in a state of high tension and even division no matter in work or in life, which can be described as being attacked internally and externally. This requires Huang Xiaoming to interpret complex psychological changes and reactions to different situations in a stable external state. Although he also acted in some period dramas in the past, Fang Jiashu gave him a lot of different feelings, “I think this role can make me make a breakthrough.”

“After substituting into the role, the performance became more relaxed”

After the broadcast of “Stalker”, Huang Xiaoming’s performance in the show was also recognized by the audience. Netizens commented, “When Huang Xiaoming doesn’t notice how handsome he is, he becomes very handsome.” From the movie “The Wind” Transformation, Huang Xiaoming sinks more and more into roles and characters. In “Stalker”, Fang Jiashu’s identity is very complicated, and the relationship between the characters is also unpredictable. He dare not design too many actions, because the more small actions, the easier it is to be exposed, but because the lurkers often cannot sleep, Huang Xiaoming gave him A small detail was designed, that is, no cigarettes and coffee beans are put in the cigarette case, and when you are tired and sleepy, you can chew a few pills to refresh yourself.

From “Langya Bang: The Wind Rises from the Long Forest” to “The Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red” and “The War of the Roses”, after seeing Huang Xiaoming’s works in recent years, the biggest feeling is that his acting skills have improved. He admitted that there were more times of competition in the past, but now he feels relaxed and relaxed, and has a more detailed and in-depth understanding of the characters. From observing the characters, getting close to the characters, to becoming a character, in recent years, what he really heard, watched and felt really brought him is to make the “Huang Xiaoming” in the eyes of the public farther away from the audience. characters are brought closer to the audience.

In order to appear in the movie “Chinese Partner” (left) and the TV series “War of the Roses” (right), to reflect the characteristics of different roles, Huang Xiaoming deliberately changed his body.

However, it is not easy to get close to the character status of different characters. Starting from the tough guy roles in the movies “Night Banquet”, “The Wind” and the TV series “Jing Zhong Yue Fei”, Huang Xiaoming tried to change his appearance and enter the role state, and also brought in more of himself through the observation of real people in different industries. think. In the movie “Chinese Partner”, in order to achieve the status of the characters in the film, Huang Xiaoming deliberately gained weight. In the TV series “War of the Roses”, he hopes that the status of the characters can not only meet the capable professional status of a partner in a law firm, but also meet the “white moonlight” memory of the hero and heroine in the emotional line. For this reason, he deliberately exercised to lose weight. After losing weight, he felt much refreshed. He communicated with the stylist of the crew not to be too embellished. The clothing is mainly shirts, which looks more capable.

Regarding his transition between “fat and thin”, Huang Xiaoming said that it still depends on the needs of work, “In fact, all my weight loss and shaping are for work. Everyone should focus on health in daily life, eat well, drink well, and sleep well. “

“Emotions need to be hot, but expressions must be reserved”

Huang Xiaoming can be regarded as becoming famous at a young age, but pure growth experience is not an advantage for an actor. Huang Xiaoming once analyzed and felt that he is not a talented actor, nor does he have the conditions to be a good actor. But he is very hardworking and competitive. The more the outside world thinks he is not suitable, the more he wants to prove that he can do well. Huang Xiaoming said that the current mentality is indeed much better than before, “I have passed that stage (competition), and the overall mentality will be more settled, but this does not mean that I am relaxed about ‘acting a good show’. On the contrary Land, I have some new understanding of acting, and hope to take it to the next level.”

Huang Xiaoming said that it may be because he is getting older and thinking more about career and life. Therefore, in terms of performance, especially in terms of emotion, although the emotion is hot, the expression must be reserved. Huang Xiaoming’s acting style in recent years has become much more introverted. He is very frank about some previous comments on the Internet like “dominant president, greasy”. It must be fake, but now I can calm down. The audience’s feedback is very important to an actor, and I will look at it and think about it dialectically.” In Huang Xiaoming’s view, the only thing he can do is to calm down , use works to prove himself, and every suggestion is a gift for him.

In his opinion, the older you are, the more careful you are. Today’s Huang Xiaoming, looking at himself before the age of 40, feels very “stupid”: when he was 20 years old, he was full of self-confidence; had some success. If the present Huang Xiaoming had the opportunity to say a word to himself when he was 20 years old, what would he say? He thought for a moment, “Work hard, your hard work will pay off.”
