He played Luo Manman in "Guanzhong Bandits" and had outstanding acting skills, but due to his appearance, he failed to become popular.

Text/Iljimae

In 2003, a TV series caught Iljimae’s idea. The name of this drama is "Guanzhong Bandits", also known as "Guanzhong Past Events". It tells the story of Qinchuan, an eight-hundred-mile country in the late Republic of China. It encountered a severe drought and the people were in dire straits. The love and hate of the stubborn Qinchuan descendants were born on the loess. Love and hatred.

"Guanzhong Bandits" starred Ling Xiaosu. He is still a student at Beijing Film Academy and is only 22 years old. Ling Xiaosu has received extremely high praise for his superb interpretation of the role of Dunzi, and has become well-known.

However, after "Guanzhong Bandit", Dunzi appeared in many film and television works, such as "All the Way to Gesanghua" and "Going Home" "The Temptation" and "Days with the Stewardess", etc., the acting skills have improved greatly than before, but the response in the market has been mediocre.

Today Iljimae would like to introduce to you another actor who performed very well in the drama - Zhao Chunyang. The character he plays in the drama is named Luo Yuzhang, also known as Manman.

(4) Luo Manman’s exaggerated and funny performance

Luo Manman is a very important character in the play, a very bad character, bad from beginning to end. A character is the main line of the plot. Luo Manman, the leader of the county security team, first killed Dunzi's parents. When he learned that Dunzi was still alive, he deployed troops to launch a crazy pursuit of Dunzi, but failed.

The ruthless Luo Manman later ruined Xifeng, who had become a child with Dunzi. That scene made many people filled with indignation. One of Iljimae's friends said that he would be beaten to death if he saw him in the future.

It was because of these unscrupulous things Luo Manman did that Dunzi, after joining the army, began to take crazy revenge on Luo Manman. Often after harassing Luo Manman, Dunzi would leave a slogan saying "Dunzi is the murderer", which made Manman restless all day long and made him a little nervous.

Zhao Chunyang’s performance is simply superb. He perfectly interprets Luo Manman’s ruthlessness and funny temperament from the bottom of his heart. Later, the nervousness was also displayed smoothly and naturally. Zhao Chunyang's brilliance once surpassed the protagonist Dunzi.

After this TV series came out, Zhao Chunyang won the title of "China's No. 1 Villain". In this regard, Zhao Chunyang expressed his helplessness, saying that this title was not given by the audience, but by his company, for publicity and effect.

(7) Luo Manman who speaks in the play

Zhao Chunyang said, in fact, I don’t have the temperament of a villain at all. I even dream of playing a good guy, but I play the bad guy. The character was a great success. This is indeed the case. When later watching the film and television works starring Zhao Chunyang, Iljimae always thought that Luo Manman was making a cameo. Ha ha.

(8) Standing beside Manman is Chang Naichao

After "Guanzhong Bandits", Zhao Chunyang appeared in many works, such as "Two Guns Li Xiangyang" and "Who "Behind Your Back", "The Big Shopkeeper", etc., their performances are all good, but they have never become popular. Some people say it's because of Manman's appearance, but Manman is 1.8 meters tall and has a very burly figure.

After thinking about it, there is only one thing, maybe the pretty appearance is not very pleasing. In recent years, Zhao Chunyang's performance has been recognized by more people, and his performance in the movie "Twelve Citizens" was outstanding. He played Wei Ran in this year's starring role in "The Qin Empire" and maintained a consistently high level.

After reading Zhao Chunyang's experience, you can know that today's entertainment industry is moving towards two levels.

Actors with strong acting skills often live less well-known lives; while some fresh meat and florets with no acting skills and no strength at all can earn huge profits and are unanimously sought after by the media.

This phenomenon has to be lamented and pondered.
