gold agent In his character map, there are no big or small roles, and it is the most important thing to do your best and not leave regrets every time you perform. "
The still-popular sci-fi comedy " walks alone on the moon " With nearly 3 billion box office, it is the top box office champion this summer, and the momentum is fierce. At the same time, it won the third place in the box office of science fiction movies and the sixth place in the history of comedy movies. The innovation of type fusion is declared a success.
comedy has always been the golden sign of happy twist . And propping up this sign is inseparable from the credit of everyone in the team. actor Chang Yuan is one of them. Monte and Montagiao, Liu Jiannan, Sun Ling, including Jupiter who is drinking hot water from a cup almost all the time in the hit "Walking on the Moon", all left a deep impression on the audience.
In addition to dominating the summer season, Chang Yuan also brought the new film "Hello, Brother" to the Mid-Autumn Festival, and switched to the new role of "son" Xiao Wu and continued to brush his face. In the two works, he shuttled between the supporting roles and the protagonists, and his solid acting skills allowed him to do it with ease.
Chang Yuan has the ability to be a dojo in the shell of a snail and lion. No matter how much room for the role to play, he can find the entry point and quickly stand up the character. In the character map created by Chang Yuan, there are both protagonists and supporting roles. But in his opinion, there are no big or small roles, and it is the most important thing to do your best and not leave regrets every time you perform.
has been labeled as an excellent "comedian" by the outside world. Chang Yuan knows that he has a great responsibility, but he also hopes to broaden his play and communicate with the audience with richer roles. However, he is not in a hurry, the works need to be polished, and the actors need to be precipitated. After time tempering, everything will come naturally.
01 "Health Expert" Jupiter, originated from the improvisation
Happy Twist led the film "Lonely on the Moon", which assembled the golden lineup of Shen Teng, , Ma Li and Chang Yuan. When the official announcement was made, the audience's appetite was sated. The popular box office in the summer season once again confirmed the well-deserved status of the Twist team as the comedy "king".
In addition to the outstanding protagonist, the supporting roles are also eye-catching, especially Jupiter, an aerospace worker played by Chang Yuan. His performance in the film can be summed up in a small but fine-tuned way. As the adjutant of "Ma Lanxing", the commander of the Moon Shield Project, Jupiter advises and executes orders.
Due to the failure of the Moon Shield plan, the maintenance worker "Lonely Moon" was left on the moon, and Jupiter wants to assist his superiorsComplete the plan to save a colleague. Every time Chang Yuan appears, he can almost make the audience laugh.
let Ma Lanxing drink hot water to relieve his breath, and Jupiter's flattering appearance was vividly portrayed by him. Seeing that the other party ignored him, Jupiter drank the whole glass of water in one gulp, only to be scalded. Chang Yuan said with a slightly distorted expression, "It's still hot. This is not a thermos cup, why is it so warm." The laughing fruit made is hilarious.
Because of the behavior of drinking hot water with a water cup at all times, Jupiter is called "health expert" by netizens. But in fact, the character's behavioral habit of drinking hot water is not marked in the script, but is played by Chang Yuan on the spot. He said that this film is rather special, the actors are standing up most of the time, and there is less communication with other people, so he found a fulcrum for Jupiter.
"We were standing all the time, and we had nowhere to put our hands. Then I saw a thermos cup and wanted to say that I designed an action to drink water, so that it would have a fulcrum. Later, I took this as a reserved prop, from beginning to end. Everyone is blowing this cup of hot water, those laughter burdens are added on the spot, and they also add some memory points to the characters."
is playing a comedy, in addition to improvising with other partners of the twist team based on tacit understanding is very important, Chang Yuan believes that, The actor's secondary creative ability is also indispensable, which is even the professional quality an actor should have. Therefore, whether he is working with the Twist team or with other teams, he will actively talk about creation on the spot and think about how to collide with better sparks.
"A Lonely Moon" is positioned as a sci-fi comedy, which means a mix of serious and funny. Jupiter's identity determines that he is not just a simple funny symbol, but also has a rigorous side in scientific research, and the character core has a sense of contrast. Chang Yuan thinks that the relationship between Ma Lanxing and Jupiter is a bit like the jokes and praises in cross talk. There is a sentence in the cross talk that is "three points and seven points", and he is more like to praise Malanxing. Although joking is very important, it is also indispensable to hold joking, and it is necessary to catch the burden thrown by jojo at any time.
played the role of an astronaut for the first time, and he did a lot of deskwork to ensure that the performance showed professional professionalism. I watched sci-fi films such as "The Martian", "2012", " Wandering Earth ", and went to observe the state of astronauts. While switches between serious and funny, Chang Yuan's sense of proportion is just right. This is due to his creative habit of adjusting the retractable performance style according to the character's characteristics.
Chang Yuan is very good at cooperating with rival actors. "I usually feel the opponent. I hope that the other party will be comfortable playing with me. If someone is uncomfortable, I will make adjustments. I can adjust my lines or rhythm. Adjust yourself on the basis of ensuring the other party's acting is comfortable. , to see how there can be a breakthrough in acting."
to play a supporting role also requires profound skills. The public often likes to pay attention to the protagonist under the spotlight, so once the supporting role can shine, it can actually prove the actor's acting skills. Chang Yuan, who has been immersed in the drama stage all the year round, obviously has outstanding advantages. The attitude of reverence for performance also lays a solid foundation for his performance road.
02 carve each character with "perfectionism"
" Charlotte's Troubles ", the coquettish Monte and Montagut, " The Richest Man in Xihong City " Liu Jiannan, the gold-worshiping cultural man in " Me and My The car sales manager who regards customers as God in "Fathers ", Sun Ling, the "atmosphere responsible" in "The Wind in Longxi"... Many classic supporting roles that jumped on the screen, connected the side of Chang Yuan's actor's territory.
With limited performance space, heBut it can shape the character to the extreme. This is inseparable from his study of performance. When playing Monte, Chang Yuan watched some related documentaries and looked for character characteristics from similar people. A rainbow bracelet was specially made up to wear it on set to maintain the feeling of Monte. He uses a relaxed performance to make the characters more three-dimensional and full.
Chang Yuan's delicate acting skills were praised by the audience. Station B has a short video about Monte, which analyzes the stages that this character can be disassembled into according to different states. Chang Yuan felt happy and contented with the detailed interpretation of netizens. Because of the hard work, it has really been seen by more people.
"I did have a psychological segment when I acted, but I didn't expect the audience to capture it. At the beginning I talked to the director and said that the character is not a male lead, and I don't have a lot of space to show that Monte or Monteggio is a What kind of person, but I will try my best to describe it in detail without affecting the rhythm of the film. The less the characters of play, the more delicate the performance. We literature and art workers should work harder to create good content and give back to such diligent people Audience. "
"The Richest Man in Xihong City", he also contributed a superb performance. The villain Liu Jiannan played by him has a gentle appearance and seems to have ideals and ambitions, but he is hard to resist the temptation of money and gives up the bottom line. In
"My Father and I", Chang Yuan played the car sales manager vividly, thinking that the male owner came to buy a car, and he put on a diligent appearance, just like the "car seller" around you and me.
The big screen is like a duck to water, and the small screen is also booming. Chang Yuan broke the barriers between the two artistic carriers of movies and drama series, and resolved the presumed by others that the actors may not be accustomed to the different screens.
aired this year's well-known work "The Wind in Longxi", Chang Yuan's "Sun Ling" is like a comedian in this costume spy war drama, enriching the tone and narrative rhythm of the play. As Siwen Cao's chief secretary office and the head of the logistics department, Sun Ling was still pure in a troubled time. He always defended his brother-in-law Feng Ying, even if he was in prison.
is acting in a costume drama for the first time, and the co-actors are very good. Chang Yuan admits that the pressure is very high. He didn't know what to do about new topics, and he had to digest a lot of ancient lines. He simply put aside his distractions, communicated with the director, and acted according to his own understanding, and finally presented the now somewhat cute and careful Sun Ling.
Chang Yuan is not only praised by the director Lu Yang, but also the actor Nie Yuan, who has many rival plays, also said that he has a sense of joy in his life, forming a unique performance rhythm, and the cooperation is very pleasant. Netizens also called out that only Chang Yuan can be Sun Ling.
Chang Yuan, who calls himself a literary and artistic worker, will not divide the roles according to the protagonists and supporting roles. In his view, any role is important and may affect the quality of the work. Therefore, regardless of the number of scenes in each performance, he spends almost the same amount of effort and energy.
"I am a perfectionist and will pay more attention to details. The audience is a discerning person. If an actor's performance is a little slack, the audience will not buy it. This is an attitude. Do the best within the range, and then you will stop.”
has created many outstanding characters in front of the camera, but Chang Yuan said that there is no concrete methodology. He described the performance as something that can only be understood and cannot be described in words. As long as you find the feeling of the role, you can continue with a sense of belief until the moment when the performance is finished.
has deeply cultivated the comedy track and handed over many representative roles. Chang Yuan undoubtedly has a talent for comedy, but a comedy performance that can really hit the audience's heart without embarrassment is not small. In a way, the challenge for comedians may be greater.
He said that being an actor requires constant absorption of nutrients. Watching movies, reading books, reading scripts, reading novels, even reading news or some things on the Internet are all sources of inspiration. He usually likes to think about things alone while running, and many creative ideas come from running.
"You can have a feeling of being isolated from the world when you are running, as if you are in another space and you are alone. I especially like that feeling. Sometimes I also think about things when I take a shower."
to excellent colleagues Learning is also his way of improving his acting skills. For example, cooperated with Nie Yuan in "Feng Qi Longxi". Chang Yuan felt some of the things the other party gave during the performance, and he would absorb the essence and convert it into his own so that he could use it in the next suitable new role.
03 took up the responsibility of "comedian" and kept breaking through himself.
If the classic supporting roles outline one side of the actor Chang Yuan, then the other side is made up of his starring roles and works. In the comedy "Hello, Brother" released this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Chang Yuan played a "son" Xiao Wu who has the power to travel through time and space and match his parents' love. After a series of ridiculous farces, he finally reached a reconciliation with his father. .
The motif of family affection has built an outlet for Chang Yuan, who has rich life experience, to fulfill his desire to perform. He made no secret that he was lucky to be able to interpret such a character with a complete story line. In order to play this growing role well, he devoted himself fully, so when the character arc realized, he also followed "Xiao Wu" to let go.
"Xiao Wu lacked half of his love from the beginning. He didn't have a mother when he was a child. He got full love through a fantasy journey. Although the final result has not changed, he was healed through love. He understood What kind of person my mother is, I also understand my father."
As an actor, Chang Yuan is conscientious. Unlock a new identity related to artistic creation - the director, who is equally self-critical. No matter what label uses to appear in the public eye, Chang Yuan has always pursued spiritual communication with the audience.
The movie "'s warm hug " is his first self-directed and self-acted work, and it is also the biggest challenge in his acting career so far. Compared with the pressure, Chang Yuan was more excited. It took him two or three years to put all his heart and soul into it. In the film, Bao Bao, a piano teacher who is keen to make perfect plans, played by Chang Yuan, suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder of cleanliness and belongs to the marginalized of society. When
was writing, he asked a psychologist. After gaining a certain understanding of this mental illness, he tried to use the expression of comedy to analyze heavy social issues. As everyone said, the core of comedy is tragedy. Chang Yuan hopes to awaken everyone's love for special groups through movies.
"I think this is actually a meritorious thing. You can make some people feel warm through a work, or let the audience know more about some disadvantaged groups, which is a very meaningful thing."
not only realizes personal expression through works, but also brings opportunities for the audience to think. Chang Yuan will also think about the iteration of performance methods according to the changes in public aesthetics. He bluntly said that it is important to keep pace with the times, but he also admitted that the replacement of "comedians" is an inevitable trend.
Chang Yuan is well aware that the rise of the younger generation will make their generation of comedians gradually withdraw from the stage of history, but as long as they stand on the stage one day, they must shoulder their due responsibilities.
"We will do everything we can to hollow ourselves out, to create more and better things, so that the current generation of audience can experience the emotions of our generation, or what we want to bring to the audience, or let the audience see To what heights we can bring comedy to within the scope of our ability. So we are constantly striving to innovate, do as much as possible for comedy, and make more contributions to the audience.”
Chang Yuan in the play to the audience Bringing happiness and returning to life is a low-key social fear. However, his slow-moving personality has developed a good attitude. He is not impatient or impetuous, and is committed to putting all his energy into his performances, insisting on using his works to let the audience know himself more comprehensively. Although
was labeled as a "comedian", Chang Yuan felt that this was just the tip of his iceberg. In an era of rapidly changing audience tastes, it seems a bit outdated to eat all over the world. He doesn't want to solidify himself, he is looking for opportunities to break through and try to let the audience see more sides. Literary films or TV dramas are all stages where he prepares to unlock multiple roles. Chang Yuan is thinking about which type of role is more suitable for presenting at this stage.
grew up in a strict family, and there are more or less invisible forces in his life that control him, but acting has provided Chang Yuan with the opportunity to let himself go. He said that being an actor is very enjoyable because he can experience other people's lives.
04 Conclusion

Now, on the one hand, he wants to continue to use his advantages to shine in the comedy field, and on the other hand, he begins to think about how to extend the tentacles of actors.
