If you want to ask which drama is the most popular right now, there is no doubt that it is "Flowers", the first TV drama directed by Wong Kar-Wai. Once it was aired, it was constantly searched for and received rave reviews.
Xin Zhilei, who plays Li Li in the drama, has been recognized by the audience from the moment she appeared on the stage with her superb performance and distinctive personal charm. As the series aired, Xin Zhilei's performance got better and better, and she received more and more praise from the audience.
In an interview, Xin Zhilei told the story behind the filming of "Flowers".
In order for Xin Zhilei to better interpret the role of Li Li, director Wong Kar-wai put forward very high requirements for her. She must not only practice her manners, but also perform the charm of the era in the play.
In previous works, Xin Zhilei has played many tough characters, but Li Li's toughness is not in appearance, but in her heart. Director Wong Kar-wai bluntly said that Xin Zhilei has no femininity.
In order to meet Wong Kar-wai's requirements, Xin Zhilei made great efforts. In the first two years of filming "Flowers", Xin Zhilei systematically learned Latin, jazz, tango and other dances, and her feet were almost worn out. Until the end, director Wong Kar-wai told Xin Zhilei that there was no need to go to class anymore.
worked hard for two years in order to get the director's recognition. She practiced diligently in the past two years, so that Li Li in the play had a graceful figure and charm, which left a very deep impression on the audience as soon as she appeared.
Through interviews and behind-the-scenes reports, we learned that during the past two years, Xin Zhilei spent several hours every day practicing dance, putting in a lot of time and sweat.
During the dance practice, Xin Zhilei bluntly said that she "suffered a lot". She not only had to learn the basic steps and movements of various dances, but also understood and experienced the emotions behind the dances.
It is precisely because of this willingness to endure hardship that Xin Zhilei has made significant progress. Not only has she mastered the essentials of movements, but she has also gradually formed a dance style with her own characteristics. Through Xin Zhilei's dance, we see both the softness and the perseverance of a woman in Li Li, and the two are perfectly integrated.
In addition to practicing dance, Xin Zhilei knows very well that if she wants to play a role well, she must also get into the heart of the character. To this end, Xin Zhilei carefully studied the script and carefully analyzed the character's personality characteristics and emotional changes.
The Li Li finally displayed on the screen is more three-dimensional and vivid. Xin Zhilei's performance is remarkable, real and concrete.
In "Flowers", Xin Zhilei played the role of Li Li, the owner of Zhizhen Garden. Some viewers commented that Li Li is a mysterious and attractive rose on the Yellow River Road, restrained yet public. No matter who has come into contact with Li Li, , will be attracted by her unique charm.
There is a scene in the play where she is chatting with Reiko and says, "If there are other ways, not many women are willing to come out and be the boss's wife." Only personal experience can say such a thing. Li Li and Reiko are in It is Xin Zhilei's wonderful performance that makes the audience feel the empathy at this moment.
Xin Zhilei's appearance and temperament fit the role very well. Coupled with her more than two years of dance practice, she finally fully demonstrated Li Li's powerful aura.
What the audience saw was the graceful dancing and sassy temperament of Li Li played by Xin Zhilei. These are all reflections of her superb acting skills, and behind them are her hard work and efforts.
Currently, "Flowers" is still on the air. I believe that with the continuous broadcast of this drama, Xin Zhilei's superb performance will be seen by more people. These are the results of her hard work.
