The first wave of archaeological wind at the beginning of the year still blows to Ethan Ruan.
The recent movie "Zhou Chu Destroy Three Evils" has gained a lot of popularity and good reputation. Ethan Ruan, who plays the protagonist Chen Guilin, has also successfully become famous.
first recorded a variety show in the Mainland and played the role of a stewardess, and the Internet quotes he contributed became hot searches.
is so angry, and he still has to keep everyone laughing~
The classic broadcast accident of being bullied by a dog has also been archaeologically discovered, allowing the majority of netizens to witness his social death scene again.
Chen Guilin’s bowl of traffic rice is probably enough for Ethan Ruan to eat for a long time. When
appeared on the stage, he was wearing a silhouette of a black suit that brought him aura. He fired countless shots on the homepages of many netizens and ran for how long.

With a 186cm tall model figure and a tight and fleshy butt on the double doors, he has successfully entered the list of sexually charged male stars.
even gained a wave of foodie fans because of the scene of eating box lunches in the first part of the film, which prompted him to engage in food broadcasting.
I still have to believe in some metaphysics about feng shui in the entertainment industry.
Once upon a time, the public's impression of Ethan Ruan was still that of a fool who was rumored to be in a relationship with a certain traffic star and was considered too old by her fans.
Today’s Ethan Juan has suddenly become the new husband of many people, showing signs of regaining his former glory as the male lead in Taiwanese puppets.
So, now that the public has fallen in love with Ethan Ruan again, what do they love about him?
Come to trial today.
heretical
Ethan Ruan, who now impresses everyone with his appearance at the age of 42, did not rely on his face to win in the early days of his career.
Among the male Taiwanese puppet stars of the same period, Ethan Ruan has always been a heretic. When
came along, the audience at that time was really well fed, and the market was flooded with a large number of male stars with good bodies and faces.
When he was a male model, Ruan Jingtian and his colleagues Zheng Yuanchang and Xiaomei He Junxiang were known as the "Three Musketeers of Kaiwo". He once laughed at himself, "I heard from the staff that Xiaozong is the most elegant, Xiaomei is the most beautiful, and Xiaotian is the tallest." The weirdest one."
Secondly, Ethan Ruan’s face is not considered mainstream on the Taiwanese puppet show.
Whether it is the elegant and noble business style:
or the handsome wolf style:
The male protagonists of Taiwanese puppets at that time generally preferred handsome guys with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and upright temperament.
Although Ethan Ruan was always titled as "The Second Ming Dao" in the past, some people still vaguely think that Ming Dao is Ethan Ruan's stage name.
However, in comparison, Ethan Ruan's thick eyebrows are always ridiculed to look like Crayon Shin-chan. Now, if he becomes famous earlier, he may still be able to catch up with the recent "mouse male stars" list.
Therefore, Ethan Ethan was the latest to start among the "Three Musketeers of Kaiwo". Zheng Yuanchang and He Junxiang became popular as early as 2003, and Ethan Ethan did not officially become popular until 2009.
Although Ethan Ruan's face does not look very popular in idol dramas, he always has a way to make his characters likable.
The affectionate knight Owen in "Green Forest", in addition to the blessing of a lovable character that makes people feel distressed, is also inseparable from Ruan Jingtian's Su Gan who emerged in his early years. Although
is not an official CP, he pursues the heroine fiercely, and the public is not disgusted with it. The cute interaction between childhood sweethearts has become a source of frustration for the audience over the years.
When someone else plays a boss, he can easily look cool with his face, so he looks for highlights from other aspects to make the character look handsome.
Ji Cunxi in "Destined to Love You", although he frequently misunderstood the plot of the heroine and was criticized by the audience as a scumbag, he could not stand up to Ethan Ruan's cowardly temperament, and neutralized the tightness of the previous boss, and instead created a background. A kind and funny male boss.
The audience was angry that he was responsible for being beaten in the whole drama, and they couldn't help but sigh, what a miserable funny man.
The Taiwanese puppet market declined. After moving north to develop, Ethan Ruan was ridiculed as an "ugly man in ancient costume" because he and Yang Mi filmed "Swinging".
But he has been ridiculed for being ugly, but his acting skills are rarely said to be bad. can even be said to be one of the few actors in today's Taiwanese entertainment industry who can successfully break the barrier between TV series and movies.
acted in TV series, and the 2009 "Fated to Love You" is still the highest-rated in the history of Taiwanese idol dramas;
made movies, and at the age of 28, he won the 47th Golden Horse Award for Best Actor with "Monga", breaking China's Taiwan box office record for ten years.
Ethan Ruan's "strangeness" on the surface means that he is out of place, but it also means that there are more unknown possibilities hidden.
Perhaps it is his temperament that allows him to release a different kind of charm when acting in movies than the male protagonist in idol dramas.
4 years ago, he played the role of a gangster monk in "Monga", which is quite similar to Chen Guilin.
has the same smart and compact shape, and the crazy pressure of smiling at you one second and slapping you in the next second is also very suitable.
Speaking of it, it seems that there have been hints.
Before Taiwan idols became popular, Ethan Ruan's earlier stage was in the music videos of many famous singers, appearing in various characters.
first appeared in Dai Penny - "Loved" MV
JJ Lin - "Exchange for the Rest of Life" mv
This once seemed like a heretic and unpopular existence among male stars of the same period, but in fact he has already found his mainstream and gradually became popular.
And Chen Guilin is the intersection of public attention and the debut of Niu Hulu and Ethan Ruan.
You will find that Ethan Juan did not develop according to our expectations, but gave us an unexpected surprise.
Coming from an idol drama background, his style and acting methods are not easily limited. How does
do it?
First of all, it benefits from the plasticity of temperament.
Compared with the decent temperament of the so-called male protagonists, Ethan Juan's background is difficult to see clearly at a glance.
It wasn’t until Chen Guilin came out of the industry that he discovered that at the age of 42, he could still have a strong appearance and a rich temperament that is both naive and wild, which completely filled the gap in our new imagination of middle-aged male actors.

In fact, Ruan Jingtian's face carries some risks of being an "oil king". Once the expression is not properly managed, it is easy to get the title of "stallion" and become a sexy wild man. Become a cheap man.
But the magical thing is that as soon as he starts acting, he seems to have a purifying effect and successfully removes oil.
has the key characteristic of blindly changing its appearance, innocence.
In addition to the aforementioned Owen and Ji Cunxi, Lucas in the sister-brother love theme "The Lost Dog Queen" can also be transformed into a firm and passionate person based on respect, making you effortlessly believe in his deep affection.
In Chen Guilin, it is the embodiment of madness.
As a character who appears as a murderer, Chen Guilin neatly shot a gang leader at the beginning of the movie. When he met the criminal police, he was like a mouse that had stolen the cat's food.
smiled provocatively, what a arrogant and desperate thug.

After being told that he had advanced lung cancer, he wanted to "get rid of three evils" before his death (killing the top two on the wanted list and then surrendering) to become famous all over the world. Therefore, Chen Guilin's Madness comes from the desire for fame, and is the self-consistency of a madman who thinks he is righteous.
faced off against Aberdeen, who was second on the most wanted list, for the first time. Facing Aberdeen, who was provocative with a razor, Chen Guilin's eyes were like those of a wild animal meeting its own kind, with a secret sense of excitement brewing.

After the final headshot of the big brother and the ignorant believer, his face did not have a red-eyed madness, but showed the most relaxed one who was ready to face the world of fame. smile.
A murderer who kills people like crazy, but he is polite and behaves like ordinary people.
Such a naive madman is very dangerous, but he also gives many people sexual tension.

In addition to the natural blessing of temperament, of course it also requires acting skills, otherwise there will only be clear stupidity.
Although the acting methods in idol dramas and movies are different, Ethan Ruan's way of breaking through walls relies more on experience.
What fascinates Ethan Ruan about acting and what he strives to capture is a state similar to inspiration.
The real enlightenment for him was in "The Weather Is Sunny in Kenting" filmed in 2007.
He plays a "loser" who is frustrated in life, career and love.
When he looked in the mirror, the character's state and his personal state at that moment were connected. He described it as "a feeling of numbness all over the body."
If you are not crazy, you will not survive.
Later, in order to put on a good show, Ethan Ruan even forced himself to "become a demon".
When he was playing a serial murderer in "City Lights", during a fight scene, Ethan Ethan felt like he was possessed. In the middle of the fight, he suddenly realized that he had unknowingly beaten the stuntman to blood.
But he was so frightened by the scene in front of him that he trembled. The next second, he came closer, smelled it, and licked the blood off his hands.
Of course, no matter how sensitive the experience actor is, he still has to use his brain to act.
In "Zhou Chu Eliminates Three Evils", I believe many people were frightened by one of the scenes.
During the fight between Chen Guilin and Aberdeen, Chen Guilin suddenly bit off his mouth, and the scene instantly gave the impression of two beasts biting each other with the smell of blood.

This scene actually originated from Ethan Ruan's experience in filming a scene in "Army in the Army". In the scene, he needed to open his mouth to check Chen Jianbin, who played the role of an officer. Ethan Ruan Said, at that moment, I felt like I was being treated like an animal.
So there is a metaphorical scene of snake and pig fighting.
Heretics have no more than two choices. Either change their appearance and try their best to squeeze into the track and pretend to be gregarious;
or simply make their "extraordinary" to the extreme.
Ethan Juan obviously chose the latter.
No one sets limits for idol groups. Whether you can find a way out or not depends on yourself.
What about the temporary relics? There are always people who are turning themselves into treasures.
Although many people have watched "The Three Evils", they all say that Ethan Ruan's movie has no meal replacement for domestic entertainment.
But looking at Taiwan Entertainment, Ethan Ethan is not the first actor to surprise people, which is why Ethan Ethan has always been "transparent".
Typical handsome guys from the Taiwan idol era like Qiu Ze and Zhou Yimin have transformed into powerful actors. The contrast is greatest and they are obviously easier to see.
"Tang Detective 2" Qiu Ze
Let's look at Wu Kangren, the first brother in Taiwanese dramas who is the same age as Ethan Ruan.
He is a representative of the counterattack of poor students. He grew from an older newcomer who couldn't move in filming to the actor he is today, relying on his belief in "responsibility and professionalism" that he developed as a bartender.
And Ruan Jingtian relies on " competition and fear of ", a sense of crisis and recklessness, and enjoys the feeling of "having to fight hard when the health bar is almost half-way".
I remember a few years ago, Ming Dao mentioned on an acting variety show that he could no longer be the male lead, and his poor development even made him look down on himself.
This is also a microcosm of the current development situation of those popular Taiwanese puppet actors who had more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
On the other hand, the former idol drama niche in domestic entertainment can now only play the elders of a new batch of idol drama protagonists, and why does Ethan Ethan find a way to break the situation for himself?
has a Jianghu atmosphere.
When he was young and rebellious, he was a gangster who even the agency was afraid of impulsively saying the wrong thing; during his trough period, he was a Chen Guilin-style "lunatic" who persisted in his own stubbornness.
is like Chen Guilin, who turned himself in with the goal of becoming famous, but found that he was only ranked third on the wanted list. His expression changed.
’s desire to be the top brother on the list was aroused.

Actor Ethan Ruan's charlatanism comes from the doubts from the outside world, which is not exciting at all.
Ethan Ruan's youthful spirit is not written on his face, but always in his heart.
has been questioned since he won the Best Actor Award at the age of 28. For more than ten years, he has been angry and unconvinced to prove himself.
still remembers Ethan Ruan mentioned in an interview that before filming "The Three Evils", director Huang Jingfu told him, "I hope you will go back to that uncomfortable state again, and don't make yourself so comfortable first."
Now this "uncomfortable state" that has lasted for more than ten years has finally been released in Chen Guilin, and finally achieved a win-win situation with the character.
To a certain extent, this state of fear, dissatisfaction, and discomfort is his nourishment.
Compared with the glory of winning the award, he is more afraid that no one will dare to give true feedback in front of him.
I used to be the youngest and least experienced person on the set, and the one with the least experience. So every time I go to the scene, I don't care about the venue management, lighting, or radio...especially the radio. The radio is the most honest, because you can tell whether your speech is true or false. He will come over and tell you that your performance just now was not good. It’s not just the director telling you, the staff comes over to tell you, everyone is telling you. After won the award, no one would say this to you for a long time. I panicked! Do you think I still need you to talk to me? Why is no one here to talk about it?
@cctv Culture is Very "Ruan Jingtian | Everything has just begun"
The invisible pressure brought by the Golden Horse Award once caused his limbs to tense up, and he was even scornfully ridiculed by rival actors in person, "Golden Horse Best Actor, that's it?"
But this If Ruan Jingtian is offended by his words, it is like kicking the cotton wool.
Unexpectedly, he turned around and asked someone to go swimming and asked for advice.
The reason why Ethan Ruan can truly be called a domestic entertainment without meal replacement may be that this racing philosophy of "becoming stronger because of fear" guides him to deepen his career in acting.
seems to be stimulated by the outside world, but in fact it is self-sufficient.
We are pleasantly surprised to see a middle-aged actor with good acting skills and well-managed appearance. Even though he should be included in the uncle circle according to his age, he still looks like a heretic, and he can also find a new track in the uncle circle:
A thug's dish with tight skin and wide shoulders.
When talking about Ethan Ethan before, many people would gossip first, so they can understand the polarizing reputation caused by Ethan Ruan's rise to fame this time.
On the one hand, this is the choice of the audience and the result of the operation of market rules, which once again proves that "sexual tension/acting skills/works are the best medical beauty for 'scumbag men'".
On the other hand, people are still reluctant to acknowledge his success.
Just as many people attribute Ethan Ruan's rise to fame this time because "it's just the character that adds points, and the subject matter just hits the sweet spot of mainland audiences."
But is it possible that the public's carnival is not just for a kind of personality and a sense of satisfaction, but for a certain type of actor, a kind of harvest joy after a long drought?
Even this is essentially a downward freedom for the audience.
After all, it is always much easier to get a good actor out of the entertainment industry than to find a good man.
I recall the first time I remembered the name "Ethan Juan" when I was a child, it was in "The Green Forest", The Mary Sue Legacy.
The heroine Sophie rushed to his RV to wake him up, but when she pulled off the quilt, she caught sight of his celestial body.
From that time on, Ethan Juan had a bit of a weirdo vibe.
This drama is the story of a princess meeting a prince in an enchanted forest. Ethan Ruan wears the character of "Violin Prince", but you feel that he can tear up the violinist and use it as firewood at any time like Captain America. Others walked in and out of the banquet in suits and skirts, but he drove a van and made the woods his home.
From then on, he was destined to be an out-of-place beast that would not be tamed by the lasso of idol dramas and would always run rampant.
This is true. Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes.
Ethan Ruan has always used this "human nature" to travel around the world, and people who have given up their superstition on glamorous personalities have only seen his return today.
The biggest danger of Vanity Fair is not that it cannot be integrated, but that it is swallowed up after being forced to integrate, and then loses itself.
Fortunately, Ethan Ruan has always been weird, so "weirdos" have a chance to become "weirdos".
's popularity this time is not only a good thing for him, but also for us.
This means that we are no longer deceived by concocted saccharine fairy tales, but are more willing to believe in the strange little excitements we experience.
If you like weirdos, this is actually beautiful.
