Chapter 484: Fu Biao and his people
has been in the film industry for so long, although Zhou Bai does not have a deep intersection with Fu Biao, he also knows that he is quite well received in the circle, and many people are full of praise when he mentions him, this is not only because of his qualifications, but also because of the good popularity brought by the usual treatment of people and things.
Among the mainland film and television comedy actors born in the fifties and sixties, they can actually be counted with one hand if they can establish their own style and be loved by the audience, and the number is Chen Peisi, Ge Wei, Fan Wei, Zhao Benshan, and then Fu Biao.
It can be said that Fu Biao is a very good actor, although he plays these little characters and small supporting roles, although there are not many scenes, but he shows how humble people experience the ups and downs of life, and shows their understanding of life, so that the audience can see the magnificence from these humilities, and the innocent and lovely temperament he brings on him also left a deep impression on the audience.
Fu Biao is not an actor from a professional class, he didn't get admitted to the Beijing Film Academy when he applied for it, so he had to enter the acting major of China Social University, well, it is estimated that most people have never heard of the name of China Social University, everyone just needs to know that this is an adult university.
His acting career was even more tortuous, he was admitted to the repertory troupe of the Railway Art Troupe, but he was seconded to the rap troupe every two years.
The rap group is not Rap, but the rap group that talks about cross talk and sings opera, you can imagine how big a blow this is to Fu Biao, who loves acting, but he did not give up on himself because of this, but learned a skill.
Fu Biao has been in the music industry for ten years, proficient in storytelling and cross talk, and has developed a solid foundation in music skills, but this situation has played a great role in his future performance path, and after ten years of training, he has gradually found his own path.
Fu Biao only returned to the repertory troupe in 95, during the rap troupe, he got acquainted with those people in the Beijing circle, and had the opportunity to act in some TV series, but there were still few opportunities, he returned to the repertory troupe and was immediately selected by Lao Mouzi to play a gangster character in "Shake, Shake, Shake to Grandma's Bridge", although there are not many scenes, but this starting point made his road much smoother, and this starting point helped him a lot.
Immediately afterwards, he acted in Feng Xiaogang's "Party A and Party B", "Endless", "Big Names" and other movies, and gradually became famous, and these two years are his peak, a well-recognized comedian in China, he also wants to take this opportunity to show his strength, but God does not fulfill people's wishes, just when he wants to show his strength, his body has problems, and he died of illness just over a year later.
Zhou Bai got some information from the memory fragments, but in fact, he only knew that Fu Biao would suffer from cancer, and he didn't know what the specific situation was, and the trouble was that he couldn't say this to Fu Biao in person, at most, it could only be through some casual hints or guide him not to drink, and the physical examination still had to be done every year, but he was not very sure about the effect.
Zhou Bai didn't know if Fu Biao's cancer was related to his drinking, but alcohol was indeed very harmful to his body, and when he heard that Fu Biao was going to drink, Zhou Bai instinctively remembered some information from his memory fragments, but he was still not sure if there was anything wrong with Fu Biao's body, and it would take an in-depth examination by the doctor to know.
When it came to the evening, Zhou Bai found out that Fu Biao was not addicted to alcohol, and the banquet in the evening was also a shallow taste, and he was not drunk, which made him feel a lot more relieved, and this opportunity also allowed him to get close to Fu Biao.
"I don't usually have any hobbies, I just like acting, whether it's dramas, TV series or movies, as long as I can act, I'm happy, you don't know, how much hardship I suffered in order to act, it's not an exaggeration to say that acting is my life, as long as I can move, I won't give up acting. At the wine table, Fu Biao couldn't help but feel emotionally when he talked about the events of the year.
"Like Uncle Biao, it is not easy for your generation to stay in the circle all the time, the previous conditions are not as good as now, it is too difficult for people who are not in the system to act, and the production is dominated by the system, I heard our teacher say that if the students who studied acting back then could not be assigned to a good unit, they might not have a play for ten or eight years, even if they were assigned to a good unit, they would start from a small role, it was too difficult to get ahead. Zhou Bai nodded and said, back then it was not as good as now, why did people in the past take acting so seriously, there are really few opportunities, if you don't have a good reputation, no one will look for you next time.
This is the truth, Zhou Bai's generation is lucky, especially the actors from the professional class, everyone has many opportunities, as soon as they graduate, they can receive the play as soon as they want to, and the worst is also the big supporting role in the TV series, this is a good time to catch up, this kind of opportunity can be said to be unique, and it is only when they encounter the nodes of the important historical process of Chinese film history that they have created their group.
"The market economy is good, I used to be in the rap group, I had so many opportunities to stay in front of the camera or rely on a group of old brothers to help, but I acted in some dramas, in the past ten years in the rap group, I was really unwilling to come out, fortunately there is steel to help me, otherwise it is really difficult for me to get my wish. Fu Biao recalled his experience, sighed, and patted Feng Xiaogang next to him.
"It's all gone, it's all gone, the previous days were really bitter, but they were really pure, but now they are burdened by fame, too many scruples, who can say whether it's good or bad, right?" Feng Xiaogang touched the cup with Fu Biao and took a sip.
"Don't talk about these old things, it's rare to get together tonight, say something happy, you are here to reminisce about the past, but also take care of other people's feelings, say something fun. Xu Fan saw that her husband and Fu Biao were a little blushing, so she quickly stopped them and changed to another topic.
There are a lot of people at the wine table, in addition to Feng Xiaogang and his wife, Ge Wei, Liu Wanying, Liu Zhenyun and others, all of whom are the main creators of the movie, and most of them are also friends of Fu Biao.
……
In the few days of the crew, Zhou Bai chatted happily with Fu Biao, and he could be regarded as having a deeper understanding of Fu Biao, and the original worries were finally able to let go of some of them.
Fu Biao's role is actually not much, it is nothing more than the scene of being blackmailed in the villa, Feng Xiaogang's wife Xu Fan also made a cameo in it, and it was filmed in less than two days, and these scenes are not difficult.
"When did you know so much about health? When Biaozi left, he also sighed that he had to take good care of his body, saying that he would go back and have a thorough check-up, and you and he had met him so many times, how did you feel more familiar than me, you didn't know that in the past two years, his work and rest time have been much better, and he has been drinking in moderation, and he has not indulged like before. After Feng Xiaogang sent Fu Biao away, he said to Zhou Bai with a puzzled expression.
"No, Uncle Biao is very interested in this aspect, the old man in my family and my father are all enthusiasts in this area, the body is the capital of the revolution, people are middle-aged, and they still have to pay attention to all aspects. Zhou Bai smiled and said, maybe a small part of history has changed, this is something he likes to see, I hope Uncle Biao is healthy, this is better than anything.
Birth, old age, sickness and death, Zhou Bai is powerless to change it at all, at most, it is to remind more, everyone has their own way of living, he has no right or ability to forcibly change anything, if Fu Biao can be healthy, there is no terrible thing like cancer, of course, it is the best.
