Comments on the face of Huang Xuan, the new Chinese New Year Emperor

"Youth" and "Legend of the Demon Cat" have been very popular recently, and as the male lead of both films, Huang Xuan seems to have finally become famous.

Well, it finally caught fire.

Please forgive me for using the word "seems" because it is really difficult for him to become popular.

It has been almost ten years since his debut, and he has been working hard in the entertainment industry, but he always seems to have nothing to do with entertainment.

In 2005, Huang Xuan, who was just a freshman in college with no background, no experience, and like a blank slate, was chosen to make a movie.

The director is Zhang Yimou, "Curse of the Golden Flower".

Huang Xuan's original role was the second male lead, the second prince.

Everything was settled, but when filming was about to start, I was told that I didn't need to come.

Because Jay Chou's role was temporarily added to the movie, the age of the actor who played the second prince was lowered to 14 years old, and the 19-year-old Huang Xuan was no longer suitable.

Three years later, Lou Ye, "Spring Breeze Intoxicated Night". Huang Xuan played the supporting actor this time, but he had enough roles and was not replaced, so he killed Qing easily and happily.

But after the filming, his entire line in the movie was removed, and his nearly one-hour scene was cut to just his back.

Another three years passed, and Huang Xuan, still unsuccessful, auditioned for "Ocean Paradise".

After entering the final audition, in order to play the role of an autistic child well, Huang Xuan took a special leave and went to the Beijing School for Autistic Patients, where he lived and ate with the school for more than half a month. In order to adapt to the role's swimming talent, he would choose three days a week to soak in the swimming pool and swam back and forth non-stop.

Finally, I received another phone call and was told not to go.

"Because you don't look like Jet Li"

Then came Wang Xiaoshuai’s "Rizhao Chongqing".

Originally, Huang Xuan was chosen by Wang Xiaoshuai to be the male lead, but because the investors insisted on using their own people, he was once again "driven away" by the crew.

"What can I do? Just leave it like this."

In the blink of an eye, it was 2014, 7 years after his debut, and 30-year-old Huang Xuan began to see a turnaround.

Lou Ye, the director of "Spring Breeze", contacted him again. The film was called "Tuina" and the character played by Huang Xuan was called Xiao Ma.

It was also from this year that Huang Xuan's career began to take a turn for the better.

Later, TV versions of "Red Sorghum" and "The Legend of Miyue" were also brought in, but they were all similar dramas with strong female protagonists.

When he was interviewed, he also complained, "I really want to be famous, I hope to be remembered, so that when I choose the script, I can have more say, but I don't know what I did wrong, no one can remember me (bitter smile)"

The 2017 year-end New Year's Emperor can be said to belong to Huang Xuan.

In November, The Legend of the Condor Heroes was released, and Huang Xuan became widely known to the audience for the first time.
