At the New Year's Day party held by the school in the second year of junior high school, Huang Xiaobo became a celebrity of the school with the song "Looking Back Again". After that, he represented the school in the "Dragon City Cup Karaoke Competition for Middle School Students" and won a third prize. In this competition, he met his friend Gao Xiaohu (a young actor who played Xuzhu in the mainland version of "Dragon Babu").

It seems that overnight, karaoke has become popular all over the country. At that time, every three to five days, a new dance hall would open in the city, which was Huang Xiaobo's original commercial performance venue. On a hot day, red bean popsicles cost a dime, and Huang Xiaobo, who is still a middle school student, can earn fifteen yuan a night of singing. Knowing that Huang Xiaobo was singing outside, his parents naturally disagreed. Like all parents in China who want their son to be Jackie Chan, it is very dangerous to not do a proper job during the school period. "Every time after the show, I go back and open the door. There will always be a sound when you open the door, so you have to twist the door open quickly, put it back slowly, pick it, wait a minute, come back again, and stretch it up again. Every time it was silent, and then I turned around and closed the door. Of course, almost every time Huang Xiaobo locked the door and turned back, there was a figure waiting behind him, and the next thing was to be beaten.

Since then, when Huang Xiaobo returned to the song hall to sing, he took the initiative to find the manager, and he wanted to save together without paying for a single performance. At the end of the month, when he received his labor, he asked for as much change as possible. Back at home, in front of his parents, Huang Xiaobo slowly took out a thick wad of banknotes from his pocket. At that time, the parents, whose monthly salary was only three or four hundred, realized for the first time: this stubborn child is obsessed with singing, maybe they can really support him in the future!

In addition to being a singer, he also had an amateur identity at that time: a dance instructor. After watching a break dance performance that Huang Xiaobo imitated in a performance. The principal of a local school in Qingcheng that runs dance classes approached him and hired him as a part-time coach. The two imitation performances were taught in less than two months, and Huang Xiaobo was stubborn. I bought a video tape to study on my own, and then I went to teach after I learned it, and this part-time dance coach career lasted for seven years, three days a week, from 4 to 6 p.m. every day.

The life of the singer in the night club has been going on, along with the growth of fame. Huang Xiaobo formed a combination: Blue Wind and Sand. His appearance fee also rose from 15 yuan to 150 yuan, and later, his hometown in the seaside town finally made him lose interest in the challenge. Huang Xiaobo started the first stop of the cave - the performance of Xuxi.

In an open area in the county seat, a greenhouse was erected, loudspeakers hyped up the flow of people, and simple hand-painted posters were printed with eye-stimulating pictures of snakes and beauties with two heads. A well-dressed young woman sits at the entrance of the shed and sells tickets. Such a scene is where Huang Xiaobo performs.

Starting from Guangxi, Huang Xiaobo's footprints covered all provinces except Xizang, Xinjiang, and Gansu. The collective appearance fee later reached 800 yuan for the lowest game, and after getting the money, each person sent 2,000 back to their families. The rest is used as a common expense, eating and lodging together, and playing around. During this time, he was deceived and starved. But even in the most difficult situation, Huang Xiaobo still swore hungry: The difficulties in front of him are nothing. Be sure to stick to your dream of singing!

In addition to singing, he also enjoys writing songs. At that time, the most popular was the four kings of Hong Kong, and he also wrote songs specifically for Aaron Kwok and Jacky Cheung, one of which was written for Aaron Kwok "Lonely Kingdom" was favored by the people around him, and when the person paid for it, Huang Xiaobo said: "No, this is what I prepared for Aaron Kwok." However, these songs can only lie quietly in the bookcase at home.

Later, Huang Xiaobo came to Guangzhou, and after the South Drift, he went to Beiliang to do the North Drift. At that time, both in the north and the south, there were well-known singers who sang with him. In Guangzhou, it is Yang Ying and Mao Ning, and in Beiliang, it is the Manchu Army, the Zero Point Band, and so on. The former companions have become popular one by one, but he has never been able to open the door to the record industry.

After struggling on this path for so long without success, is it necessary to continue to persevere? Huang Xiaobo became suspicious of his previous choice. Time passed like this, and the calendar flushed down with the toilet, and Huang Xiaobo felt panicked.

When he returned to Qingcheng again, Huang Xiaobo's identity was a small boss. As the Chinese representative of a Korean footwear mold machinery factory, Huang Xiaobo began his own attempt to devote himself to the industry.

During a business trip to South Korea, Huang Xiaobo took the machine to a large shoe-making company with tens of thousands of people. In the absence of his own engineer, Huang Xiaobo had to edit the automated operation program to demonstrate. At that time, in front of more than a dozen senior Korean experts, Huang Xiaobo used his "one-finger Zen" to program there sweating profusely. After finally finishing the compilation, under the expectation of everyone, Huang Xiaobo pressed the test button, and a shoe popped out of the machine like a cannonball, and there was no trace. Such a scene, in retrospect, looks like a comedy movie starring him, but at the time, it was his life.

Although he made some money as a small boss, he could not bring him happiness except for money. Inspecting the goods every day and telling people about stainless steel and bearings is a crime for Huang Xiaobo, who loves music. So after receiving a call from a friend inviting him to perform, Huang Xiaobo left the factory where he had worked for nearly two years and returned to Beiliang.

In Beipiao, singing in bars is Huang Xiaobo's main source of livelihood, but fortunately, he has accumulated a small amount of savings after many years of operation. sang for him in the Zero Point Band, and the bar notified him to temporarily replace Man Wenjun to sing for half a month. But the Manchu army never returned there since. Because Man Dajun participated in CCTV's Young Singer Contest and sang a song "Understand You", he became famous overnight.

Huang Xiaobo is still singing in the bar. When he received a call from his friend Gao Xiaohu, he was performing in Xiwei. Gao Xiaohu told him that there was a scene and asked him to come over and play a role. After learning that he was the protagonist, Huang Xiaobo returned from Xiwei. This is a TV movie "Get in the Car, Let's Go" filmed by the movie channel.

"Get in the car, let's go" was filmed for more than ten days, and Huang Xiaobo, who was an actor for the first time, often went under the camera to pick up things during the performance, and a good shot was invalid. What puzzled director Guan Hu was that Huang Xiaobo often shouted to himself while acting: "Stop!" So all the departments stopped what they were doing, and then Guan Hu stretched out from behind the monitor with a blank face and asked, "What are you doing?" Huang Xiaobo said: "I don't think I acted well just now. I have to do it all over again!" Guan Hu finally couldn't help it: "It's not good, I said it's not good, and it's not good if I say it's bad!" Only the director can call a stop, you know?"

The scene where Huang Xiaobo's character left Beijing and went home was filmed at Beiliang West Railway Station. Huang Xiaobo remembered the work discipline that can only be stopped when the director shouts to stop. Start with power-on. Huang Xiaobo kept walking into the station, getting farther and farther, Huang Xiaobo walked from outside the station to the station, and he didn't hear the shout "stop". "If you don't stop shouting, you're going to hit the wall!" Huang Xiaobo looked back through the glass and saw that the crew was already loading. He didn't hear the director shout to stop, and he didn't know how to go a certain distance as he was inexperienced. The telephoto lens is no longer available.

After the filming was completed, "Get in the Car, Let's Go" quickly received many nominations. At the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony that year, Huang Xiaobo, who was an actor for the first time, sat with many top stars such as Gong Li and Stephen Chow. After many years of insisting on the dream of music, I have not been able to achieve satisfactory results, and it is really unexpected to get such success when I first set foot in film and television. It also made him see the potential in himself.

Get in the car. Let's go", Guan Hu also began to prepare his new play, which is the TV series "Black Hole". Because it was filmed in Huang Xiaobo's hometown of Qingcheng, and Huang Xiaobo happened to be at home at that time, Guan Hu called and called him to the crew. Hand him the script and say, "Pick a role yourself." ”

Huang Xiaobo said: "Nie Mingyu's role is very good. ”

The director said, "Ah, that's good. That's played by Chen Daoming, you can look at something else. ”

"What about Liu Zhenhan?"

The director said: "Tao Zeru acted. Let's look at something else. ”

"Then what's there?"

"Pick again."

"Tang Wenjun is good." Huang Xiaobo said.

At that time, Huang Xiaobo didn't know how to choose a role, and hurriedly read the script. His criterion is to see who has the most appearances of their name. Tang Wenjun is a police officer, he has many appearances, but he does not have many scenes. At that time, Huang Xiaobo's condition was not good, and after he got up in the morning, his hair was still messy, so he went straight to the shooting site. Because the characters are so inconspicuous, and no one cares. Until the end of the performance, Huang Xiaobo saw the role he played, and even hoped that it would be good if this play was not broadcast. But when "Black Hole" was broadcast, it was a mess.

After the broadcast of "Get in the Car, Let's Go", some directors even wrote a tailor-made role for him, but after seeing "Black Hole", he decided to give up. They were also puzzled, saying that this kid was not working, it turned out that acting in "Get in the Car, Let's Go" might be more true, and if you shape it a little, he will not be effective.

Criticism and suspicion have entered his ears more and more, and Huang Xiaobo is alert to a problem: your good is caused by yourself, and your bad is still caused by you.

Since I really have a little talent in film and television, let's continue to dig and systematically learn this knowledge. In 2002, Huang Xiaobo was admitted to the dubbing major of Beiliang Film Academy. In the two years of professional study, Huang Xiaobo did not take any more plays. Immersed in books, he reads a lot of books in his spare time, and often listens to lectures from other classes.

After graduating, he became a voice actor and was active in various dubbing studios in Beiliang until 2005, when he starred in "Crazy Stone".

As one of the three major projects of Andy Lau to support young directors at that time, "Crazy Stone" gathered a group of film young people who have worked hard for many years. This low-cost work, which was aimed at entering theaters at that time, received continuous praise after it came out, until it finally won 30 million box office. Director Ning Hao also took this opportunity to blossom all the way in the film industry, and the "black skin" played by Huang Xiaobo was also known and loved by more people with his vivid performances and many classic lines.

After "Stone", Huang Xiaobo and Ning Hao collaborated again, playing the leading role for the first time, starring in the Chinese New Year film "Crazy Racing". "Racing", which invested 10 million, finally had a box office of over 100 million. In 2009, Huang Xiaobo's name frequently appeared on movie posters in front of the theater, and from the beginning of the year to 2009, Huang Xiaobo had nearly 10 big-screen works come out successively.

At the end of November 2009, the movie "Bullfighting" starring Huang Xiaobo, as the only mainland work, entered the Golden Horse Film Awards. On November 28, 2009, the Golden Horse Awards were announced, and actor Huang Xiaobo became the second mainland Golden Horse actor after Liu Ye!

Although Huang Xiaobo insisted all the way, he was very discouraged from going all the way to the dark. When you have walked on a road for a long time and have not achieved the success you want, then you need to try another path, which does not mean that you are not attached, but another alternative way of attachment.

Looking back on the road he has walked, Huang Xiaobo once said with emotion: "I have been a soft insistent all the way. Including my singing, including filming, I'm not so dead and begging, what has to happen if this thing doesn't work, and I don't give up when I encounter difficulties, one on the left, one on the right, anyway, I'm always moving towards the destination. ”

Huang Xiaobo's soft insistence is very admirable.

Huang Xiaobo's humorous interpretation style is also something that Fu Hao admires.

From the thief Heipi with low emotional intelligence in "Crazy Stone", to the unlucky racer Geng Hao in "Crazy Racing", to the silly farmer Niu Er in "Bullfighting", and the rebellious gangster Niu Sturdy in "Killing", Huang Xiaobo has created a series of screen characters from the bottom and full of dick atmosphere. In the Chinese New Year movie "Thai Embarrassment", Gao Bo played by him unexpectedly followed the troubles all the way, and the jokes continued. In the TV series "Militia Ge Erdan", he plays a loafer and a gangster Ge Erdan, who is idle and full of shortcomings - after Ge You withdrew from the Lunar New Year, when the media was looking for the next king of comedy, Huang Xiaobo, who created a series of grassroots comedy characters, almost undoubtedly became the best person.

Different from Stephen Chow's nonsensical comedy of small people, Ge You and Feng Xiaogang's urban middle-class comedy, Huang Xiaobo's comedy focuses on the fate and struggle of small people, and each character has a strong comic-style national color, with the most simple and direct values.

Hollywood screenwriter McGee put comedy at the highest level, and in his view, Chaplin's comedy changed the world's fear of the rising United States at that time, and believed that excellent comedy movies could change China's image of the world. In fact, Stephen Chow's nonsensical comedy, Ge You's aristocratic and confused urban middle-class comedy, and Huang Xiaobo's grassroots humorous comedy can be called the three coordinates of contemporary Chinese domestic comedy.
