Interview article： Bao Beier’s personality is like a sponge, which magnifies his pressure.

(Written/Twenty-two Island Owners) The Fat Man Action Team, directed by Bao Beier, was released nationwide on September 30, with an exclusive interview with the starring article and listening to him share with us the interesting stories and experiences before and after filming.

The article and Bao Beier have been good brothers for many years. Bao Beier was invited as the leading actor in the first novel of the article "Liu Yao Zhi Ma Li". This time, the article said that he was very serious on the set and would try his best to carry out the director’s intention and complete the role he wanted. When it comes to Bao Beier’s growth in recent years, the article calls it a complete "qualitative change". "He is very open-minded. When others give him good advice, he must accept it. He belongs to the kind of person like a sponge." Bao Beier’s articles about being mad at netizens during the publicity period are also known. He admits that Bao Beier magnified his pressure. In fact, things are not that serious, and the film should get a good result in the end.

Just recently, Ma Yili, the wife of the article, has two films, The Road Not Taken and Finding You, which landed in the cinema successively. In the middle of the year, she won the Magnolia Award for My First Half Life. The article is full of praise for Ma Yili’s performance. He said that this success stems from the accumulation of Ma Yili over the years, especially the restrained female image in Finding You, which left a deep impression on him.

Talking about the role: joining the crew is an emergency, agent.JHave nothing in common with yourself

When Bao Beier first asked you to play this fat man, what was your reaction at that time?

Article: At first, I was not the person they were looking for, because the actor had a problem with his schedule before he turned on the phone, and then he came to me and asked me to help him in the Jianghu. After he told me this story, I didn’t like it very much, and I didn’t have any interest. I thought it was completely out of line with my temperament. I said you should look for someone else. If you really can’t find anyone, I’ll cover for you before turning on the phone. That’s it.

How many hours does it take to put on this fat man’s makeup?

Article: Yes, it takes more than three hours to paint this makeup every day.

When actually shooting, it should be difficult to move?

Article: It’s a little inconvenient to move because you have to wear that fat suit, but you have to perform a lot of action scenes, so try to overcome it.

Which scene do you think was the most impressive?

Article: Just all kinds of fighting, because you have to turn over, fight, jump up and down.

What about the tofu dance with Bao Beier?

Article: The scene was fine, and there was no rehearsal, so the director thought about a few things and thought it was good to say that, so he followed the action he thought.

: So do you think the role of Agent J has something in common with your personality?

Article: No, not at all.

Talking about Bao Beier: His personality is like a sponge, which magnifies his pressure.

Do you think it’s crazy to shoot this play with Bao Beier?

Article: It’s not crazy, because as an actor, it is to carry out the director’s thoughts and consciousness. His world is a fairy tale world, so we should try our best to enter the director’s context, his world and then complete the role he wants.

As his good friend, how do you think Bao Beier has grown and changed in recent years?

Article: I watched the first online drama "Happy Detective" directed by him. I think his transformation is qualitative, because from the first time he directed a TV series to this time he made a movie, he was very open-minded. When others gave him good advice, he must have accepted it. He belongs to that kind of person like a sponge.

: On the set, do two people agree with each other or will they obey?

Article: I obey, I must obey him at the scene, and we often joke in life.

He is actually under a lot of pressure for this film?　　　

Article: There must be pressure on him, because every director who makes a film has pressure on him, but I think he has amplified this pressure, because I think he has finished the film very well, so he should relax and face the result. He may still think this matter a little too seriously now, and I think it should be a good result.

Were you relaxed when you were filming the director’s debut?

Article: As a director, I said, I cut the film, then made it into a piece, and everything was finished, and I got the Dragon Label. This matter has nothing to do with me, so I let it develop.

: Will the two of you have some cooperation in filming in the future?

Article: I don’t know, I don’t know yet.

Talking about Ma Yili: Her success comes from long-term accumulation.

This year, Ma Yili has just released two films in September, The Road Not Taken and Finding You, and won the Magnolia Award in the middle of the year. How do you evaluate her performance of full-scale explosion this year?

Article: She didn’t break out completely. I think it’s a long-term accumulation, and everything happened to arrive this year, because these plays were shot one after another in recent years, and they didn’t get together, but they were all broadcast and released together. She has always been a hard-working actress, including Magnolia, who gave her this honor. I also think it is an affirmation of her work for so many years. The films "The Road Not Taken" and "Finding You" were both in September, which was not deliberately arranged. I showed "Finding You" before I saw it, and I felt very different. It was also a movie that I liked very much in domestic films this year. All the performances, her emotions and her emotions were so restrained and implicit that it was more acceptable to me than the externalized performances of some films of the same type.

This year, you played a big fat man, and it happened that she also played the ugly role. This breakthrough in role is quite coincidental.

Article: She didn’t pretend to be ugly, which is not called pretending to be ugly. I think she may have started from the role. We all started from the role and didn’t deliberately look for anything.

Talking about performance: I have always been very strict in choosing scripts, and I have to empty myself out every time I work.

In the past two years, you have been insisting on the parallel of TV series and movies. What do you think of the phenomenon that big-screen actors return to small screens?

Article: This is no longer a problem. I don’t think it is as fine as in Hollywood and the United States. In our industry in China, there is no such fine requirement for actors, so there is nothing. Don’t think about how to talk about TV dramas and movies. I think that as long as it is a good work and a good work expressed with heart, the result will be good, so I don’t quite agree with it in China.

: So in the future, movies and TV series will be in parallel?

Article: Of course.

After so many years of acting, did you encounter any confusion in the performance?

Article: It’s all staged, because every time I work, I will clean myself up, then wait for the next play, and then clean myself up, so I need to face different roles and see which part I want to hollow out, which is different every time, so it’s hard to say this, because every actor should encounter that kind of helplessness in the bottleneck period, including some roles that are enough to play and some that need to be played with age.

Now when choosing a script, the requirements are stricter?

Article: I have always been very strict in choosing scripts.

Maybe compared with the previous two years, the standards for scripts are stricter?

Article: I have always been strict.

: What kind of attempts do you want to make as a director and actor in the future?

Article: touch it, you will do it if it is appropriate, and you will act if you like it.

What’s the next work plan?

Article: There is no plan at present. At present, I am rehearsing a drama.
