's most popular recent drama can be said to be the fairy tale "Liu Li". This drama also made Cheng Yi , who played the actor Si Feng, instantly become popular and became the latest male god in the hearts of the audience. Cheng Yi, who is 30 years old this year, has actually not had a smooth life in the past nine years of acting. On the contrary, he has been silent and even repeatedly hit a wall. Today, the editor will share with you how the actor Cheng Yi came back from the bottom along the way?
Cheng Yi is 181 cm tall and weighs 67 kg. He has a standard male figure and handsome appearance. He graduated from the Central Academy of Drama. Under such conditions, he basically has an admission ticket to the showbiz. However, Cheng Yi’s works in the nine years since his debut, as of 2020, only eight have been broadcast, and five TV dramas, many of which are only minor supporting roles. The works can be said to be few, and he has hardly seen Cheng Yi’s endorsements and Advertising, what is his career in acting?
Cheng Yi, who just debuted in 2011, performed his first TV series "Tang Palace Beauty World". In this drama, he played a small supporting role general Feng Xiaobao, an affectionate man who liked Princess Caidie but died because of her, but there were not many scenes and limited exposure. In the two years after this TV series, he only appeared in three or four movies, and there were only two youth romance dramas "Forgive me for not having time to love you" and the thriller love movie "Crude Love", playing the role of the second male Su Yang, but the ratings and box office of these movies are very ordinary.
Then he performed the actor in the horror movie "Girls Dormitory" in 2014, playing the role of Takaki Nan, the most beautiful male in medical university. There are seductive dormitory bathing scenes in the play. Fans can admire Cheng Yi's sturdy figure, but perhaps these movies are all niche markets with mediocre response. Although
has starred in many movies, none of them have become popular. Some people say that Cheng Yi is tall and good in appearance, but he is not particularly dominant in the showbiz where handsome guys come out. In addition, Cheng Yi has limited resources and information is not smooth. It seems that there is no way to perform in a big drama. main character.
Cheng Yi's first acting peak: " Qingyun Zhi"
finally ushered in his first acting peak in 2016, he played in Zhao Liying and Li Yifeng starred in the fairy-tale drama "Blue Clouds" Lin Jingyu plays the second male role. In this play, Cheng Yi fully demonstrated the role of Lin Jingyu. Since childhood, he is a talented and decent chief disciple. He can sacrifice himself for a good brother and he has no hesitation, but at the same time he insists on the right and the evil, and his personality is stubborn. .
After going through many things, he also realized that the quality of a person should not be determined by factions, but it depends on how the person is, bravely confronting his master. There are many great dramas in the play. The huge flow and popularity of this play made Cheng Yi's popularity rise rapidly.
"Don't be an actor for the rest of your life, you certainly can't." Although
has a representative work, in this year, Cheng Yi once confided in the "Graduation Season of First Grade" program, Cheng Yi said In fact, he has suffered many directors and producers who said he couldn't do it. One time he went to an interview and was particularly impressed. A director said: "Don't be an actor in your life, you definitely can't do it." Cheng Yi was very sad at the moment, thinking: "You can tell me no, you can teach me, why do you say that you should not do this industry forever? , It was a big blow to myself", but instead of giving up because of this, he told himself that I must do everything and I cannot fail.
Cheng Yi's many dramas did not air
Perhaps it was because of this past that Cheng Yi was less confident. He was asked why he seemed to have thought about it before he said it. Cheng Yi said frankly: "I didn't dare to speak before when I came to power, so I always have to think about it before speaking. What I do is extra hard." After "The Legend of Qingyun", Cheng Yi had a new play appointment. In 2018, he set about shooting "Changannuo", "Mountain River and Moonlight", and "Love in the Storm", two of themThe ministry is also playing the leading actor.
However, these three dramas have not been broadcast for a long time. "Chang'annuo" was only recently launched, which led to Cheng Yi's "Ching Yun Zhi" in 2016, but Cheng Yi did not have it for the entire two years of 2017 and 2018. Any TV drama work is broadcast. Many actors are afraid that their films will not be broadcast, because once the actors have no works, it is difficult to find the next opportunity, and even more afraid of being gradually forgotten by the audience.
Many brokerage companies will reveal a little bit of the celebrity's itinerary, so that fans have the opportunity to follow the stars, and by the way hot topics. But generally only a rough location will be mentioned. At that time, Cheng Yi's studio once revealed his itinerary, writing out the detailed address of each office, and there were still very few fans at the scene. During that period, Cheng Yi can be said to have little popularity, but Cheng Yi continued to work hard during this period. He once said: "I don't have any positioning for myself, I just want to stick to my dream and work hard to make the film. I hope more people will see it and live in the moment."
Work hard and cherish opportunities
Because I never know what will happen in the future, I have spent the years denied by directors and producers. Cheng Yi cherishes the opportunities he has. He wakes up at six or seven in the morning to film, the longest ever. I have been filming in Hengdian for a year. I live a life of memorizing lines and practicing constantly. I have to prepare for the next day's itinerary until the evening. Sometimes there are night scenes to be filmed.
In order to maintain a figure, often only eat an apple at night. The life of an entertainer is actually very hard. It is not as glamorous as we seem to be on the surface. Some martial arts scenes require the difficult movements of hanging a wire. Cheng Yi said that it is normal to stumble and smash a bit of blood when filming, and continuous efforts have also allowed Cheng Yi to have his first masterpiece.
Cheng Yi’s first masterpiece "The Wrathful Sea & The Sacred Tree of Qinling"
In 2019's tomb robbery drama "The Wrathful Sea & The Sacred Tree of Qinling", Cheng Yi played Zhang Qiling in the play once again by the audience. The theme of tomb robbery is a popular drama in recent years. In the "Tomb Notes" series, the classic role of Zhang Qiling has also been played by actors such as Jing Boran and Yang Yang in the past. Choosing this role must face the comparison of the audience. In the novel, Zhang Qiling is tall, with tight muscles, deep pupils, and clear and indifferent eyes. In order to fit this role better, Cheng Yi also lost 15 pounds to make himself look thinner on the screen.
Cheng Yi's own calm and calm image is very similar to Zhang Qiling's taciturn and mysterious temperament. Zhang Qiling is agile and has an amazing force value, so there are many difficult plays in the play, including flying over the wall, jumping off the cliff, and one-word horse. Cheng Yi's play is also clean and neat. And the wonderful play is also a selling point in the Tomb Raider drama. This is the effect that he received a full three months of training before starting the machine, combined with fitness and diet.
"Liu Li", the two-month-long male god
Cheng Yi continued unremitting efforts, starring in the costume drama "Liu Li" in 2020 finally made him the male god of the two-month domineering screen. The protagonist Si Feng played by Cheng Yi is an affectionate and unrepentant demon. Although his martial arts is strong, he often suffers serious injuries and vomits blood for various reasons, such as to protect the one he loves. Cheng Yi said: "The younger siblings in my hometown will send me a message after watching the play, saying why did you get beaten up again?" He, who was nicknamed "take the heroine script", should have used 90% of the blood of the whole play. Bao, Cheng Yi also said jokingly: "I have to let my mother stew some red dates for me when I go back."
Since Si Feng is a relatively introverted character, many details have to be interpreted by subtle eyes and body movements. Cheng Yi performed well in this aspect, such as clenching his fists when excited or nervous, or erratic eyes, and the deadly phrase "I'm messed up" have become classic lines. There are many martial arts scenes in the play, and Cheng Yi also has quite outstanding performances. He once said that when he was a child, he liked to read Jin Yong's novels and heroes, and was always very interested in performing martial arts dramas.
The original novel of "Liu Li" is hailed as the "Flower Thousand Bone" and "San Sheng San"Shishili Peach Blossom" is also known as the three pinnacle works of female immortal heroes. The previous TV series "Flower Thousand Bone" and "Three Lives III Ten Mile Peach Blossom" have very dazzling ratings, so the performance of this drama actually makes The actors are very stressed. Yuan Bingyan , who plays Xuanji, said: "The pressure is so high that I can't sleep well, and Cheng Yi, who is older than him, is a dedicated brother." The two people will discuss the script together.
Kissing scenes An all-nighter
Yuan Bingyan in real life said that she didn't have too much emotional experience, and the drama was full of emotional scenes, which was not small for her. After Xuanji found Si Feng in the play, the two people actually filmed a lingering kiss scene in the cabin all night. Yuan Bingyan herself is also a hardworking actor who started from a small role and played the leading role all the way. This time, together with Cheng Yi, she reaped the joy of the great success of "Liu Li". Cheng Yi was once denied to the bottom of the rock, and he relied on constant persistence and hard work to stand up.

When it comes to the type of girl he likes, he thinks that he is not in love at first sight, but in the kind of long-term love, but he is not active in love, and is more of the kind of crush. I remember that when I was still studying, I had a crush on a girl, and seeing her every day felt like a joy. Fortunately, in "Colored Glass", our Xuanji is super good at wiping sweat, sleeping, hugging, and bathing together. In the end, Si Feng can muster the courage.
