He wore black leather shoes, black jeans, a light gray cotton T-shirt and a dark complexion, which was specially tanned when he participated in the movie When is the Bright Moon, in order to be closer to the role of the guerrilla "Liu Heizai". In July this year, two works starring Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan were released one after another. In When is the Bright Moon, he is the legendary anti-Japanese hero "Liu Heizai" who was famous in Hong Kong and Kowloon in the 1940s. In Wukong's story, he is a rebellious the Monkey King.
Think too much.
Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan is 35 years old. He has reached the age where he feels embarrassed to be called "Little Fresh Meat". There are more and more opportunities before him, and his pace is getting faster and faster. In the past six months, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan spent six months in the crew. He wants to leave more works when he is full of energy. Of course, he admits that this is also caused by pressure, and he is afraid that once he stops, he will be forgotten by everyone.
It has been 15 years since I starred in the first TV series in 2002. Non-professional background, when he first started acting at the age of 20, Eddie Peng Yuyan Rosa said that he relied on feelings. In the TV series "Dolphins Love Cats", he got the qualification certificate of dolphin trainer, which is the condition for him to get the role. In his early career as an actor, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan listened and did a lot. He constantly challenges the limits of his body. In recent years, he has learned to observe and think more than before.
And thinking too much sometimes restricts his performance. This is what he learned from Xu Anhua, the director of When is the Bright Moon? "You can change the way, try to let go a little more. Maybe it will be better. " During filming, Xu Anhua often told him this story. Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan found that performance sometimes needs to be relaxed.
As a gift to the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong's return, when will there be a bright moon? It tells an anti-Japanese story that happened in 1942. At that time, the Japanese army occupied Hong Kong and intellectuals became wanted targets. In order to transfer the cultural figures out, Yu Yan's guerrilla captain and Zhou Xun's female primary school teacher Fang launched a thrilling secret rescue.
"I never thought that director Xu Anhua would invite me to make a film," Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan told China Newsweek. 20 1 1 Eddie Peng Yuyan Rosa with the movie "get out! A Xin was shortlisted for the Best Actor in the 48th Taiwan Film Golden Horse Awards, and won the Best Director Award for "Sister Tao". At that award ceremony, Sister Tao was nominated three times and won three awards, becoming the big winner of the Golden Horse Award. "When is the Bright Moon" is the first collaboration between Eddie Peng Yuyan, Rosa and Xu Anhua. Before that, they only met once at an award ceremony where many filmmakers gathered, and never communicated. So when Liu Heizai found him, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan was a little puzzled at first.
"This role is very difficult for me. Unlike a guerrilla, I can't speak Cantonese or anything. " At first, he had no confidence at all. Before filming, Xu Anhua gave him three biographies about Liu Heizai. Finally, he slowly read out his confidence.
Like "Liu Heizai", Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan never thought that she would have a chance to become "the Monkey King".
The Story of Wukong is adapted from the current novel of the same name. It tells the story that 500 years ago, the Monkey King, who didn't become the Great Sage of the Monkey, went against his fate and fought against the gods of heaven and earth. This novel, published in 2000, has achieved a high click-through rate on the Internet. Director Guo Zijian once co-wrote and directed the costume myth "The Demonization of Journey to the West" with Stephen Chow.
"He is very handsome, but he has a little monkey temperament. The orientation of The Story of Wukong is the stage before the Monkey King becomes the Great Sage of the Monkey, and it should be lovely, rebellious, persistent and helpless. Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift was the first actor to run into my mind and coincide with the script. " Guo Zijian told China Newsweek that Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan was the first actor he decided, and then he chose other actors according to his temperament.
This is the first cooperation between Guo Zijian and Rosa, Eddie Peng Yuyan. Before that, he and Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan only had a few simple conversations about movies when Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan visited his friend Shawn Yue on the set of his film "Fire Fighting Heroes".
"How to play Monkey King in human condition?" This is what Guo Zijian wants to try, and it is also the reason that attracts Eddie Peng Yuyan and Rosa to join. "We want him to be like a human, but we can't completely get rid of the fact that he is a monkey." This is the effect that the director wants to present. As for how to do this, he didn't give Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan a ready-made answer. Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan needs to explore by herself, such as how to shake her fingers and how to keep her eyes in place.
Compared with physical performance, the biggest challenge of this drama to Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift is the performance of sound. The director wants Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan to voice his role in the Monkey King, but Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan's Mandarin is not standard, with a little Taiwan Province accent. Under the guidance of professional voice actors, Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift went in and out of the studio for more than ten times, the longest time being two days. "Can we do it this time? If not, we will come again. " Guo Zijian remembers that Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan never complained and asked him this question every time she left.
Keep shooting!
In fact, as early as three years ago, when the role of "Monkey King" found Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan, many friends around him advised him to give up this opportunity. The reason is similar: classics are hard to surpass, and the audience's expectations will be high. In fact, in the early years, when he was filming Guild Wars, The Rise of Legends and Breaking the Wind, there was always a voice around him that he didn't understand.
"Don't care too much about what others say. If you like it, grasp it. I think people sometimes do this, or choose to listen to the opinions of people who think the same as you. " Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan calls herself "ego".
"Will it be difficult?" "Will the audience accept it?" Or "I'm not fit for this role at all?" And "why can't I do it?" For this kind of problem, Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift felt that she had to go out and accept this choice before she had a chance to find out.
Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan admits that he is not a good future planner, and he cares more about the present than the invisible future. Looking back on her own works, Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift has only one scoring standard: Am I happy while filming? Have I learned anything new?

After Daqing Yang took a fancy to it, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan accepted it, dropped out of school and officially started her career as an actress. Many years later, he recalled that he was filming with a working attitude and did not sign a contract. At that time, his idea was very simple, just to fulfill grandma's movie dream.

In the previous ten years, Eddie Peng Yuyan Rosa made more than 20 TV dramas, and the ratings and box office responses were mediocre. What really caught his attention was the TV advertisement he shot with Taiwan Province actor Kwai Lun Mei for a piece of chewing gum.
On July 20 10, this advertisement premiered on TV. A month before the broadcast, he got "get out! A Xin's plays. At the end of the same year, he entered the group to shoot. When the staff sees him, they will shout "Brother, fill it up". This is a line from Eddie Peng Yuyan Rosa's advertisement.

He has no job opportunities, no income, and he is also burdened with a lot of compensation brought about by the termination of the contract. He even had to rely on the relief of his family to make a living. If it's not "get out!" A Xin came at the right time. He probably chose to quit the industry at that time.

The perfect figure trained for the role also makes Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift the best spokesperson for "Fitness to Change Destiny". Since then, "muscle" has become a big label of Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan. After that, he only appeared on the big screen, and almost never made a TV series again.
In the early days of making TV series, Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift often attended various meetings besides acting, so she was not used to such a big environment. After filming, he found that he only needed to concentrate on acting and shuttled from one crew to another, which happened to appear during the publicity period. This is the state of his favorite actor. More importantly, he had a good time during the filming.
When shooting a TV series, there are 20 scenes a day, which are usually scripted. After filming, I will leave and continue to "complete the task" the next day. Later, he filmed "Get out! A Xin, on the set, he will discuss with director Yu-Hsien Lin how to improve his lines. He experienced the excitement of creating a role for the first time. He started to get up early, looking forward to going to the set to welcome the new day's shooting. Sometimes the scene is more relaxed and ends early. He didn't have enough fun, so he stayed at the scene to watch the crowd and see how others filmed it.
When did Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift begin to understand performance? He can't tell himself. He attributed the so-called "acting" to the growth of age. As for "despair", when asked, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yuyan always answers with a smile. He doesn't think his homework for this role is a great thing. That's his way.
Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan recalled to China Newsweek that Taiwan Province actor DAMIAN LAU played his father in the second TV series Sweet Love. At that time, he didn't know how to act, so he relied on intuition. Every day at dinner, he chats with DAMIAN LAU and learns from his predecessors.

Later, the script of "Dolphins Love Cats" found him, and the premise of participating was to obtain the qualification certificate of dolphin trainer. "So cool, why not learn?" In the movie "I heard", it has become his performance habit to practice his role skills. "If I don't know sign language, I just fiddle with my fingers at the scene, which seems to deceive the audience a little and I don't respect my deaf friends."
Eddie Peng Yuyan Swift said that he is a "picky" movie audience, and if the actor doesn't play well, he can't get into the story.
"I can't always perform. If I don't have that experience in my heart, I will feel empty and insecure. " He wants to be his role as much as possible.
In operation mekong, Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan noticed more details. "Shoot this kind of thing, give you a shot, who will open. After practicing for two or three months, the action of holding a gun is definitely different from the first time. "
And after the joy, it is fear. "After entering that story, I was actually a little scared, so I didn't want to leave. I will leave more energy in the scene. After filming, I will go back to my daily life, so I won't think about other things, just want to empty myself. " This panic usually dissipates with the arrival of the next role.
Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan said that he was actually a little ambivalent. Sometimes, he wants to make a career plan for himself and find a clear direction. Sometimes he thinks, "Why do you think so much? Just let nature take its course. " .
"Sometimes we are changed by the environment." After so many years, he seems to have been chosen. He knows the passivity of the actor industry. In recent years, he has found more scripts, and he has more rights to choose actively. One thing has never changed. He still wants to challenge some stories that are far away from daily life.
Filming took up most of his life, but after filming, his life was very simple. He wants to find marginal experiences and beautiful feelings far from daily life in the stories of those characters.
"I don't know many things, but I want to explore the world." Eddie Peng Yuyan Yu Yan summed up the significance of performance to him.
