The ugliest girl, who was famous at the same time as Zhang Ziyi, was persuaded by Zhang Yimou to quit the entertainment industry. How is she doing now?

This girl is Wei Minzhi. She is now a director and has a happy family life. As an actor, she can indeed be regarded as the ugliest girl, different from Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Dongyu, and Ni Ni. However, the movie she starred in was "No One Left Behind", which aimed to be real, so at that time I looked for someone who could As a rural girl who plays the role of a real girl instead of an actor with a professional background, her innate conditions are naturally incomparable with those of other girls. In fact, she can have this opportunity to participate in the role, which has changed her life's destiny. Otherwise, she will be like herself. As he said: Maybe he is still feeding pigs in the countryside.

In 1999, "My Father and Mother" and "No One Less" became popular at the same time. The heroines of the two movies were 20-year-old Zhang Ziyi and 14-year-old Wei Minzhi. They are famous for different reasons. Zhao Di, played by Zhang Ziyi, has the naivety and naivety of a young girl. She vividly and delicately displays the strong-willed girl who is just starting to fall in love. Everyone will always remember the figure running on the hillside like a deer in spring. .

And "No One Less" itself is a documentary-like film, showing poor rural areas, children who cannot afford to go to school, and ignorant thoughts. Wei Minzhi plays a "little teacher" ". This film triggers more thoughts and discussions about social phenomena, and the focus is not on the actors. This is also what director Zhang Yimou wants to express. In such a film, to put it bluntly, the actors are props, and the limelight cannot overshadow the main theme of the film. Just like the popular "I'm Not the God of Medicine", it's not just a work to show you, but a reflection of the current status of a certain society.

Wei Minzhi also won many awards that year, and she probably also wants to make a career in the entertainment industry. But bosses like Zhang Yimou told her that she must continue her studies first, and her external conditions were not suitable for her to be an actress. Thinking about it, she was only fourteen years old at the time. If she had stopped going to school and started acting, it seemed that the entire movie would have turned into a joke. And the film industry is not that easy to mess around. Maybe she can take on two movies with the title of "Mou Girl", but the road ahead will still be difficult.
