On the day of "Double 1 1", Daniel Wu also joined in the fun. He posted a shopping list on Weibo. When you see him, ask him if he wants to buy a horse for his wife Lisa. Did you buy it? "I bought it!" He answered at once. But he said he couldn't figure out the breed of horse. "I don't know about horses. She chooses them and I pay. " As expected, no matter how Daniel Wu's role, age and mentality change, she is a "wife-loving madman". "Lisa especially liked riding when she was young, but she didn't have a job when she became a mother. She wants to continue her hobby when she was young, and I have to support her. " I unexpectedly gave someone a "dog food".

Daniel Wu is not so much the perfect partner that every girl wants to marry as the person we all want to be, because he is not only "good-looking", but hard-working, self-controlled and more responsible. But in the past two years, many things have happened to him: he got married and had children, his mother died, he temporarily left the entertainment circle and reduced production ... He said that his biggest change was that he was no longer selfish and wanted to leave more time for his family. "When I was young, work was the first, and everything could be sacrificed; Later, when my daughter was born and my mother left, I realized that time could not change. " He frowned slightly. Lisa once said that Daniel Wu lost a lot of hair because she was worried about her daughter's growth. He said with a smile that taking care of her is his only goal now.

Once desperately saburo, now there is a bottom line.

The Daniel Wu I met this time has some bruises on his nose. "Do you feel a little crooked?" As we all know, Hong Kong director Lin Lingdong likes to let the actors play in person. As it happens, Daniel Wu also has a "hands-on" cleanliness addiction to performances. On the second day of their film Skyfire, Daniel Wu was hit with a crooked nose.

It was just opened, too. More than ten years ago, when filming "Never Give Up", director Chen Musheng tried to improvise realistically. Without informing Daniel Wu in advance, he suddenly asked an actor to rush out and hit him in the face. Daniel Wu, with a bloody nose, tried to finish filming.

Before filming "Eavesdropping 2", in order to get closer to the role of Ma Nianzu, he gained 20 Jin, and ate five meals a day from 9 am to 0/2 pm. Lisa saw that he had been eating and exclaimed, "Are you crazy?" In Warcraft, he plays the ugly Gourdain, and he has to walk with his knees bent all the time. After filming, Daniel Wu's legs were so swollen that he couldn't even put on his pants.

△ When I saw Daniel Wu in Warcraft, I was silent 10 seconds.

Daniel Wu has long been used to hardship and danger. "Not long ago, I filmed the American drama The Waste Land, and I played it every day. Action scenes are very heavy, and injuries are common. " The audience on the side rushed to ask him if he had bought insurance. He smiled faintly. "Now that I have a wife and children, the burden is heavy and I can't do anything too dangerous. But the bottom line is, no matter how you act, you need to work hard, because this is your responsibility as an actor, and you are responsible for receiving the play. "

Because learning martial arts is cool, and because learning martial arts is getting better.

In sharp contrast to the efforts and responsibilities of adults, Daniel Wu was naughty and even rebellious in his childhood.

As a second generation immigrant, I was born in San Francisco. My father is an engineer and my mother is a university psychology professor. I grew up in a very strict family. "My parents will always emphasize the importance of working with me." On the other hand, Daniel Wu is not so obedient. He likes skateboarding and punk music. He hates being a good student and tries his best to avoid his parents' demands.

At the age of five, Daniel Wu wanted to be a Chinese-American president, a fireman and a policeman. Until he was seven years old, grandpa took him to Chinatown to see Shaolin Temple. Apart from "I want to learn martial arts", he found a sense of identity. "In the United States, I can't get rid of the status of a' minority' and always feel that I am not accepted by the mainstream. And many ABC don't know the traditional culture of China. It happened that I met martial arts at this time. Very stylish and cool, I want to know. "

The idea was not approved by mother Wu, who was afraid of fighting for it. However, 1 1 year-old Daniel Wu finally has his own martial arts coach, a martial arts coach from Beijing who knows acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine and fine Chinese painting. He said that the biggest change of martial arts for him is to learn it well, because martial arts pays attention to self-control and discipline, so that he doesn't want to fight anymore; /kloc-at the age of 0/6, she was admitted to the hospital because of her mother's heart attack. He suddenly woke up, studied hard and was admitted to the University of Oregon to study architecture. After going to college, he also took time to participate in various martial arts competitions, went to Shichahai, Beijing to study martial arts, and even started teaching as a team.

Thinking in my underwear, what am I doing?

Looking back, Daniel Wu said that if he hadn't returned to Hong Kong to watch the reunification in 1997, life would have been different. It was his graduation trip. "At that time, I only had $65,438+0,000 yuan on me, and I really didn't have any travel expenses. I happened to meet someone who asked me to shoot an advertisement for 4000 yuan. I wanted to make money and continue to travel, so I agreed. "

It was because of his print advertisement that director Yang Fan caught a glimpse of him in the street. Faced with "stunned", Yang Fan decided that this was the movie hero he was looking for, and invited him to play many times, but Daniel Wu was once afraid. "I took a film class during my college years. I know that it is not easy to make a film as an actor. I can't speak Cantonese or perform. If I agree, it will only break his dream. " After several refusals, Daniel Wu, encouraged by Yang Fan, agreed to join Bisognin.

Since then, Daniel Wu has been equated with a beautiful teenager and a handsome guy, and he has become a person who is "suppressed by looks". Before Night in Mong Kok, he acted in 27 films in three years and gradually became a handsome product on the film industry assembly line. The roles he was asked to play were all rich second generation, expensive sons and shirtless "vases".

"I always thought acting was not about appearance. In those years when I started out, many people asked me to play a lot of plays that only looked at appearances. Everyone thinks that I should play the childe and prince charming in undercover love, but I don't like them because there are no perfect people in the world. " In the early years of his career, Daniel Wu made many films that he didn't like, including pornographic films. "I filmed and filmed, and I thought,' Why on earth should I do these things?' "

"

The tragic death rate of 70% has taught me …

Dong Chengyi once said, "It's hard to make Daniel Wu shine for a role that is too positive. This is the real beginning of his career as an actor." The word "this" in his mouth is Night in Mong Kok, in which Daniel Wu plays a desperate killer with a slight murderous look, who shares the fate with Cecilia Cheung and finally waits for the tragic ending of fate. This made him nominated for the best actor in the Hong Kong Academy Awards for the first time. This year, Daniel Wu was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Award for his twisted, cruel and crazy rich man in Never Say Never. With the latter, he finally won the Best Supporting Actor Award of Taiwan Golden Horse Award.

With the increase of movies, Daniel Wu also had the idea of becoming a director. In 2006, he pretended to form a group with Yin Ziwei, Lian Kai and Chen Zicong, made his debut and publicly announced that he directed and performed a film "Four Heavenly Kings" directed by mockumentary (below) with DV selfies, which made the entertainment circles in Hong Kong play it and won the Golden Award for cutting-edge directors.

From subject matter to form, many people realized that this was Daniel Wu at this moment. "I'm not interested in becoming a superstar. I do a lot of things not for money or fame, nor to satisfy my fans. " He said that in the choice of roles, only one of the five films may be made to cater to the tastes of fans, and the rest he only chooses the role he wants to play.

Three different characters in the series "Eavesdropping" ...

According to statistics, 70% of Daniel Wu's characters ended in tragic deaths. Nevertheless, he refused to accept a good "tragic corner": "I will not deliberately choose to be ugly, I will not be sad, I will not ruin my image, and I will not regard acting as a superficial thing. I pay more attention to the inner part of the role. "

Daniel Wu's heart ...

"I still feel sad when I think of my mother."

For Daniel Wu, the period from 20 13 to 20 14 was the bittersweet two years. When his daughter Wu Feiran was born, he ushered in the "most beautiful work" in his life. His first gift to his daughter was to stop working at home and spend time with his wife and children. Just as the whole family was happy, there was news that mother Wu was getting worse and worse. Once again, he suspended all his work and spent his last years with his mother.

△ Daniel Wu said "Mom, I miss you" on social networking sites.

"In less than two years, I experienced life and death and fell from heaven to the bottom. This gap is really big. " The sudden death of his mother was a great blow to Daniel Wu, until a movie, Fuck off! "Liu Jun" made him re-choose his job. "I wanted to continue my holiday to adjust my mentality, but I was moved by the script. It's too difficult to face the world when I come back from the most depressed time, including that I'm not completely well yet, and I'll still be sad. But at least I can stand up. "Daniel Wu admits that these experiences have changed him a lot, and he has learned more about the world and himself." I didn't know that time was limited until I was 40. I'm in my twenties and I don't know it. I'm wasting my time all day Now I don't want to do this. I cherish every minute with my family. "

"I can't change my appearance."

There is a question in Zhihu "How to evaluate Daniel Wu's acting skills". Some people say that his acting skills are restrained, others say that his roles are well-defined and there is still a lack of breakthrough, but more answers are "Daniel Wu is so handsome that he doesn't need acting skills at all".

This is the answer that Daniel Wu is most afraid to hear. He said on different occasions more than once that he felt that he was not handsome and didn't want to talk too much about his appearance. "I can't decide what it looks like. Good-looking is everyone's description. I'm just an ordinary actor. And abroad, I have never heard anyone say that I am handsome. " Over the years, he has been constantly changing various roles to present to the audience. Although he is not defined as a "vase" by the director, what we can talk about is his appearance. For him, handsome appearance may be a kind of helplessness, and what's more, it has become a big obstacle to his acting career.

"I don't want my daughter to be an actress in the future."

"My daughter is too beautiful to work" is Daniel Wu's outspoken feeling of "having a baby". With Wu Feiran, he said it was difficult to go out, so he wanted to keep looking at his daughter and forget all his troubles. "When I was young, I wanted everything. I wanted to be a good actor, a good director and a good father. With my daughter, I found that I don't want to do many things. I usually spend little time filming with their mother and daughter, and now I want to focus on my family. "

He said it would be a pity if he couldn't grow up with his daughter, and he began to worry that his daughter would be chased by many boys if she was too beautiful. He even said that he hoped his daughter would not be so beautiful. "Now girls start to have boyfriends when they are twelve or thirteen. I am quite scared. "

For her daughter's future, Daniel Wu even bluntly said that she didn't want to be an actress. "She'd better not be an actress because it's too hard. Especially for girls, when they are in their twenties, some people say that they are old, and that kind of pressure is too great. I want her to be a doctor and a lawyer, because those are professions that need to survive by ability. But if she must be an actress, I can agree, provided that she finishes college and my father lets me finish college, I can choose freely. "

"The most popular cult movie"

Clockwork orange is the film that Daniel Wu mentioned most in the interview. He bluntly said that he liked watching film noir best, and he would be very excited whenever he met a similar role. In the "Demon Night Cloister", he said explicit lines with an evil smile, and explained the distorted state of mind changes vividly; Quentin tarantino is a white-haired eunuch in Tiequan, which is co-produced by rapper RZA. He tried to plot against others but was dragged into the meat grinder beyond recognition. In Magic Police, he is a policeman who falls into self-reproach, and eventually he is schizophrenic and even beats himself physically. ...

"clockwork orange" makes me think that movies can be like this, and human beings are not that simple. I like to know things in the dark, maybe because I'm not that kind of person, but I know many people are thinking like me, what's the difference between me and the bad guys? Dark movies help you understand the existence of human beings on this earth, why human beings are so violent and why they fight ... instead of simply thinking that everyone is good, the world is not black and white, but gray.
