“If you ask me at the beginning of the year, I will have time at the beginning of the year; if you ask me at the end of the year, I will have time at the end of the year. In short, when will your movie be shot, I will have time. It just happens. "

This is the answer Zhang Xiaofei gave when a reporter interviewed why she chose the heroine in the movie "Hello, Li Huanying". Although the words are still full of comedy, she can hear her confidence in the movie.

Indeed, as a member of the team who collaborated on the original sketch, Zhang Xiaofei is very clear about the completed effect of the sketch.

In "Comedy Story Season 1", Jia Ling, Chen He and Zhang Xiaofei stood on the comedy stage together and completed this work. The audience cried while watching it, and even the backstage guest Yue Yunpeng said with emotion, "It's a good life, a good work."

Many viewers were full of praise for this sketch, but some controversially said that "this should not be debuted as a comedy sketch, after all, it is too tragic." So, the movie version came.

Before it is released, there is a press release on the Internet saying that this movie will become the biggest dark horse in the 2021 Spring Festival and the biggest competitor of "Detective Chinatown 3". After all, Jia Ling hired Shen Teng to take charge and also roped in her old partner Chen He. Chen Sicheng really needs to be careful.

In short, no matter how noisy it is outside, Zhang Xiaofei, who is tied with Jia Ling as the leading female lead in this movie, is the biggest winner.

In the movie promotional poster, she stands in the middle of Jia Ling and Shen Teng, in a perfect C position. The movie's magical promotional song "Little Girl Under the Streetlight" also features Jia Ling, Shen Teng, and Zhang Xiaofei on the same stage. Even on the screaming night, the retro disco performance of the three of them on the stage made the audience personally authenticate the combination of these three people.

But if you think about it, it was clear that half a year ago, Jia Ling and Shen Teng were the absolute comedy team. At that time, how many viewers said that no one could get in between Jia Ling and Shen Teng. But Zhang Xiaofei jumped on Shen Teng and Jia Ling's train and naturally became one of them, and was well received. And even with Chen He, a well-known comedian in everyone's mind, Zhang Xiaofei would not be embarrassed standing among them. It even looks fresh and cute in comparison.

In November, when the four of them walked the red carpet to promote the movie "Hello, Li Huanying", after looking at the group photo, the only thing I felt was that it was great to have Zhang Xiaofei here. In such a four-person combination, Jia Ling, Shen Teng, and Chen He are really like eating mutton, beef, and pork in hot pot, while Zhang Xiaofei is just a piece of lettuce, which is just right for removing greasiness.

So, how did Zhang Xiaofei reach such a high position step by step? A roller-coaster career path

In fact, before entering the comedy industry, Zhang Xiaofei and funny really didn’t go together.

Having studied dance since she was a child, she joined the China Armed Police Art Troupe at the age of 15 and was admitted to the Performance Department of the Beijing Film Academy at the age of 19. She was a classmate with Yang Mi, Yuan Shanshan, Jiao Junyan and others. While in school, she acted in dramas, acted as the heroine in film and television dramas, and also appeared in many crosstalks and sketches as a host. She was very versatile, but never funny.

But after graduation, she described herself as like a drawer of buns on a breakfast stall that got cold as soon as they came out of the pan.

There were no job opportunities, and there was no way to put his talents to use until he was admitted to the Broadcasting Art Troupe. By accident, he met Jiang Kun, Gong Hanlin, Ma Ji, Feng Gong and other comedy greats. Then Feng Gong met Jia Ling. , comedy gradually became the focus of her career.

In fact, no beautiful woman is willing to choose comedy. If you look at the actresses in the comedy industry, they are either not very good-looking, or they deliberately act ugly to make people laugh. Except for Jia Ling, who is popular with the audience, which young actress can succeed in comedy?

After attending the Beijing Spring Festival Gala at the invitation of Jia Ling and performing "Woman to the Nth Power", Zhang Xiaofei's belief was shaken a little bit. In addition, Jia Ling kept inviting her to join, so she wanted to go in the opposite direction and give it a try.

Can a person who has been left out in the film and television industry really come back and become popular again when he goes to the comedy stage?

For a beautiful woman like Zhang Xiaofei to do comedy, it is actually a double-edged sword.

Good-looking people are born to be lovable, but if they are put on a comedy stage, can they be funny if they are good-looking? As a result, Zhang Xiaofei created a unique comedy route.

You would think that she is the kind of vulgar beauty who would act ugly and funny when acting in a comedy, but Zhang Xiaofei doesn't do that. She looks good on the stage, showing her beauty to the fullest, and even produced a series of "Dating Specials".

If you think she can only be good-looking, then she will do all kinds of looks. From smoky makeup to punk looks, hot dance shows, etc., she completely subverted people's perception of her. In short, if you can't think of it, she can't do it.

Variety shows such as "Happy Comedian", "Comedy Story" and "Spring of Comedy Class" have trained her. She has appeared on the Spring Festival Gala three times in a row since 2018. This year, Zhang Xiaofei, who once again joined hands with Jia Ling to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, used This highest national level stage has proven itself.

The elegant and confused teacher, the young mother who likes Lu Han, she creates her own style for each character. I think that after watching her performance, comedy seniors like Song Dandan and Cai Ming will never lament that they have no successors.

Jia Ling’s colleagues in her company said that Jia Ling is the boss and Zhang Xiaofei is the first sister. But I think that in today's comedy world, among young comedians, Zhang Xiaofei is also a comedy sister who can rival Jia Ling, and she is well-deserved as the "Queen of Comedy".

This cooled bun has become very popular over the years. Do comedy steadily and know how to be content

It is not a good thing for women to be ambitious in the eyes of the outside world. You see how successful Zhao Liying and Yang Mi are, with tens of millions of fans liking them. But aside from their good works, even if you are a fan, you will subconsciously feel that this is a representative of a strong woman. Your idol is ambitious, and it is probably the kind of feeling that you can watch from a distance but not play with.

But after reading Zhang Xiaofei’s works and looking at Zhang Xiaofei standing on the stage with a harmless look on her face, you will never feel that she is strong. After all, Zhang Xiaofei, who is willing to follow Jia Ling steadily no matter how powerful he is, has grasped the most important factor for success.

No matter what line of work you are in, the most taboo thing is to want to start your own business when you are a little famous.

Cao Yunjin was known as the Fourth Young Master of Deyun Society back then, and he finally broke away from Guo Degang's control with the others. But after you see it, although he was arrogant for a while, you can see how lonely he is now. If you are the first to achieve success, you will be complacent with some small achievements and cannot see the existence of others. Such people will not last long even if they succeed.

Zhang Xiaofei attended a Spring Festival Gala with Feng Gong, and also participated in many comedy shows with Jia Ling. In fact, even if she doesn't sign with Jia Ling's company, she can achieve Jia Ling's achievements with a few years of hard work. But Zhang Xiaofei once again went in the opposite direction. She signed a contract with Big Shot Entertainment and became the first female artist to sign a contract.

In 4 years from 2016 to now, even without Jia Ling following her in sketches, she can still carry this banner. And Jia Ling also gradually withdrew from many resident comedy shows after seeing the stability of comedy variety shows.

Zhang Xiaofei has long been able to stand alone, but she doesn’t want to start her own business.

But she still follows Jia Ling's footsteps and plays comedy steadily. As a boss, Jia Ling must have made most of the profit, but Zhang Xiaofei looked like he was not fighting for anything, and he didn't look like an ambitious person.

When interviewed by reporters, she was very grateful to Jia Ling for her support and was very satisfied with the company she belonged to:

“I am very happy to be with them. An environment of big mouthfuls of meat and big bowls of wine.”

The first one mentioned Zhang Xiaofei’s participation in “Hello, Li Huanying”, standing in the C position of the poster. This shows that Jia Ling has been sparing no effort to support her, from skits to posters, and the first heroine she decided on was Zhang Xiaofei. It’s probably like that when you employ people without any doubts.

Jia Ling devoted all the company’s best resources to Zhang Xiaofei, and Zhang Xiaofei worked hard to create good sketches. Some people say that Jia Ling and Shen Teng are the best comedy partners, but I think Zhang Xiaofei and Jia Ling are.

They understand their own weaknesses and understand each other’s strengths, so they can complement each other perfectly on stage.

No matter how famous they are, they are always ready to play supporting roles for each other. Such comedy partners are hard to find.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaofei did not let anyone down
