You can always see conversations like this in the comment area of Wang Ziwei’s social platform.
"Do more movies! I like your acting skills!"
"I also want to do more movies, but there is no chance."
"Sister, I have the opportunity to audition more."
"I also want to try more."
"Do more modern movies It’s a drama, it’s great.”
“I think so too.”
On one side is the sincere message from fans, and on the other side is Wang Ziwei’s sincere reply, which is frank and sad.
Including interviews, you can always hear her voice like this:
"What do you want to do most?"
"I hope I can keep on filming every day so that fans can see myself."
Who is Wang Ziwei?
Maybe you won’t recognize this name alone, but if you mention these characters, you will definitely be familiar with it.
She is Lin Jingxiao, the class beauty of Meilu Ziye in "To Our Simple Little Beauty";
is the silly and cute foodie Xiao Tao in "Do you know whether you should be green, fat, red and thin";
is the star in "Brilliant Stars· The arrogant and domineering fifth princess in "The Moon Rises Over the Sea".
has been acting for 7 years. Although he is not well-known, he has many classic roles.
Unfortunately, as she said in her reply to fans, she wanted to film a movie but didn't have the chance.
Especially 2022, it is the darkest year for her. She only filmed for one and a half days throughout the year, and the final cut scenes were only three minutes long.
At the same time, she was changed roles three or four times in a row, even though she was already in the contract stage or in the official announcement stage.
Just like the TV series "Love as a Camp", Wang Ziwei's name was clearly listed when it was officially announced. However, she was not seen on the filming set because her role was replaced by others after the official announcement. She had no background and resources. She could only feel deflated.
She was born in a major but had no role to play, and was even temporarily replaced many times. The repeated blows made Wang Ziwei have self-doubt: Am I not beautiful enough? Not enough traffic? Not topical enough?
Even Zhao Liying took pity on her and repeatedly found opportunities for her to be exposed, either recommending her to Stars and Sea, or recommending her to guest star in "Walking with the Phoenix".
Or, often comment on her social platforms to increase her popularity.
In addition to the deep sisterly love between "Xiao Tao" and "Minglan", it is also Wang Ziwei who is hardworking and down-to-earth.
In order to portray the foodie Xiao Tao in "Do You Know Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Slim", she gained 20 pounds and gave up her youthful and beautiful appearance.
After filming "Do You Know I Should Be Green, Fat, Red and Slim", she quickly lost weight in a short period of time for a new role. In order to lose weight, she almost exhausted all methods.
For example, acupuncture, cupping, massage, electric shock, and fitness. The whole process is hard and embarrassing. You can successfully lose weight and return to a comfortable state in a way that completely ruins yourself.
When Zhao Liying recommended her to guest star in "Traveling with the Phoenix", she once again gained weight to 130 pounds for the role, even though she only played a guest role for 3 minutes.
After the work was completed, she lost weight to more than 80 pounds in a short period of time in order to audition for new roles.
Only those who have experienced weight gain and weight loss in a short period of time can feel the pain, and Wang Ziwei did it.
In addition to being down-to-earth and not making trouble, Wang Ziwei's acting skills are also very impressive.
is like the three characters of Lin Jingxiao, Xiao Tao, and Fifth Princess. Each character has a completely different personality. The aggressive, silly, and domineering characters can all be easily chosen to impress people. When
played the role of Xiao Tao in "Do You Know", the original sound was recorded live. The most important test of the original sound recording was the actor's line skills. Wang Ziwei's performance was not inferior to Zhao Liying.
included in the improvisational performance in the variety show "Infinite Transcendence Class". In just a few minutes, he vividly expressed "the hearing-impaired mother who wants to save her child". The scene was extremely infectious and was unanimously recognized by the instructors.
Wang Ziwei's face-changing acting skills have successfully created many classic roles. From her, she truly understands what "there are no small roles, only small actors".
It's a pity that such a down-to-earth acting girl has extremely poor resources.
Even in the variety show "Infinite Transcendence Class", there are only a few scenes where the protagonists are other people. She is just a background. Even if her group is the first, there are few scenes. So pitiful.
Even netizens couldn't stand it, and they all defended her and criticized the director. They thought she was too pitiful.
So, who were these shots given to?
gave Ji Lingchen, who had no acting experience, could not understand the director's arrangements, and always made jokes in the limelight.
gave herself to Li Fei'er who was late and complained that the team leader didn't wake her up. After arriving on the set, she kept acting crazy and scolding people, and she always wanted to be a big sister.
gave Zhang Rui, who has come back from his debut many years ago and is still an amateur with acting skills, unable to teach the director step by step, and still wants to win a big role.
Actors who act in a down-to-earth manner, who are responsible for their duties, and whose good acting skills really need exposure opportunities, have very few scenes, while those actors who attract attention, create topics, and have traffic become the protagonists.
It’s no wonder that she has always doubted herself, whether she is not beautiful enough and has no topic and traffic because she is constantly being replaced, because this market is like this.
is not pretty enough to stand out.
is not topical enough and it is difficult to get traffic.
Those who act steadily are not as good as those who act like monsters.
Those who have acting skills are not as good as those who can create topics.
Wang Ziwei still has a long way to go.
In fact, when Zhao Liying helped her, didn't she see her own shadow in her?
To a certain extent, they are similar.
also has no background or resources. Wang Ziwei had to play supporting roles for many years before she got a memorable role while being replaced continuously. Zhao Liying also worked as a bit player for many years before she came out.
After Yu Zheng emerged in the entertainment industry, he wanted to poach Zhao Liying but was rejected because he did not want to let down his manager who had endured hardships with him for so many years.
Wang Ziwei also has a grateful heart. She will not complain about staff not being able to get jobs, but is also grateful to everyone who helped her along the way.
knows how to make progress and know how to be grateful. Wang Ziwei deserves to be promoted by Zhao Liying. Although
is still the "background board" for others at this stage, as long as he persists in deep cultivation, he will still have a future, so what if he is not beautiful enough? So what if it’s not topical enough? The spring of a good actor will come sooner or later!
