Jigong Benchang You: 52-year-old burst into red, 73-year-old ruined, where to go?

Shoes, hats and robes, you laugh at me, he laughs at me. There is no Amitabha in the south, no Amitabha in the south, no Amitabha in the south, no Amitabha in the south.

Hearing this song, everyone will involuntarily hum. This song is a childhood memory of many people. Whenever this song is played, the image of "Jigong" played by Benchang You will naturally come to mind.

The TV series "Jigong" has produced many versions, but the most popular image of Jigong is the image of teacher Benchang You.

1966, Benchang You was born in an ordinary family in Taizhou, Jiangsu.

When he was born, a monk saw him and asserted that if he could not become attached to the Buddha, he would not live to be 13 years old. His family was frightened. When he grew up, he took Benchang You to a nearby temple and became a lay disciple.

Since childhood, Benchang You has enjoyed watching people perform on the stage. Although I don't understand it, I feel very novel in my heart.

From 65438 to 0952, Benchang You entered the Shanghai Theatre Academy through his own efforts, where he learned a lot about acting, and Benchang You took every class very seriously.

When he entered the National Theatre, he began his walk-on career. Benchang You is unlucky and has been buried in the troupe for a long time.

Although he only plays a few small roles, Benchang You cherishes every performance opportunity and practices his lines over and over again in front of the mirror.

It is this conscientious attitude that, after nearly 20 years of running as a walk-on, Benchang You finally ushered in his first leading role play "Jigong" at the age of 52.

Benchang You is optimistic by nature. Whenever and wherever he is, he is happy and comfortable. There may be a certain reason for choosing him as "Jigong".

For many actors, they have been famous for a long time in their fifties, but for Benchang You, he is still a newcomer to film and television dramas.

He is very modest. Although he has some stage experience, he is still very nervous before shooting. He solved all the problems he could think of, including scriptwriting and lines. ...

During the filming, Benchang You only slept for 4 hours every day in order to film the role well. Except filming time, he has zero contact with the script and has a perception of the whole role.

I still remember a scene where Jigong was eating meat. It was very hot at that time. Because the shooting time was not good, by the time the meat was eaten, it was already smelly.

However, in order to catch up with the progress, Benchang You ate carrion and looked very happy.

The performance of this passage was later included in a book devoted to learning performance.

There are many more thrilling examples.

After the TV series was broadcast, it really lived up to expectations and became an instant hit. So did Benchang You, 52.

After becoming famous, Benchang You received many invitations from film and television dramas, but many of the plays Benchang You felt did not meet the standards, so he refused.

Benchang You, 73, also wrote a pantomime "Mr. You's Dumb Laughter" and a TV series "Leaving Fan", but not all works of art can make money. After these two works, Benchang You spent almost all his family's money.

He is very demanding. At the age of 80, Benchang You sold his house and created the master Hongyi.

Many people advised him to stop fooling around, but Benchang You felt that he was an actor and should always bring good works to the audience.

The old man has always treated every piece of his work with a serious and pious attitude. Now I am almost 90 years old, and I still have no plans to retire. I want to bring you better works.
