Sina Entertainment News "The Most Beautiful Performance" and Hu Ge's meeting again, four years later.

In 2015, several major dramas such as "The Pretender", "Langya List", and "The Great Time" made him the focus. That year, Hu Ge played a boxer in the short film "Intermission" of "The Most Beautiful Performance". A month-long fitness preparation was carried out for shooting.

In 2019, the 37-year-old Hu Ge moved to the film industry, and the leading movie "The Gathering of South Station" was shortlisted for the main competition unit of this year's Cannes Film Festival.

Many people believe that acting in costume idol dramas in their 20s has attracted countless fans; after the age of 35, they are transformed into film actors, and the first films to be featured in leading roles can be nominated in Cannes. Hu Ge's transformation is very successful.

And Hu Ge himself said that the success of "The Gathering at Southern Station" has yet to be tested by the audience after the release, but at least, he took that step.

joined the most beautiful show again this year. Hu Ge cooperated with director Diao Yinan for the second time, and staged the extra part of "The Gathering at Southern Station". The

short film has been prepared for up to 8 hours. According to director Diao Yinan, because it is a one-shot shooting, no mistakes can be made in every link. All the staff are tense, and Hu Ge is the set. The most relaxing one.

is such a relaxed and comfortable feeling that Hu Ge gives us. Today, he has never refused to talk about the transformation of male artists, fundraising of fans, and the cold winter of film and television, and he has also contributed a lot of golden phrases.

and Diao Yinan are chatting about the script in the backstage of Double 11

Sina Entertainment: This time we will play the triangle separately. Which role do you look forward to most?

Hu Ge: I treat all the roles I will play and the roles I have played the same. I don't have a favorite or a dislike.

Sina Entertainment: At the moment you saw the script, was there any urge to act?

Hu Ge: Of course, because first of all, it still has some relevance to our movie "The Party at Southern Station". Then two new people were added, which didn't seem to have much to do with the movie.

Sina Entertainment: So the role of the fugitive is Zhou Zenong, right?

Hu Ge: Hmm!

Sina Entertainment: This time acting as a fugitive and cooperating with director Diao Yinan again, did you think of the filming of "The Party at Southern Station" at that time?

Hu Ge: I don't need to imagine it. After a while, when I get to that scene, I think I will go back. Because it is another big night, basically more than 70% to 80% of our scenes are night scenes.

Sina Entertainment: How does it feel to work with director Diao Yinan?

Hu Ge: He is a very pure literary and artistic film director. When working with him, my biggest feeling is that I can forget everything and I can let it go. Although I have been working with him for more than half a year, although there have been sufferings, although the pressure is also great, but now in retrospect, I feel that every minute and every second makes me special and unforgettable.

Sina Entertainment: Did you discuss and prepare with him in advance about this script?

Hu Ge: Yes, we had some discussions on the creation of script characters in the backstage of Double 11, including some discussions on styling. When we set the makeup two days ago, we re-determined the tonality of different characters’ performances today.

Sina Entertainment: How do you understand this script?

Hu Ge: I think it is equivalent to showing a certain scene in our movie, a condensed version of a bridge segment, on Sina's most beautiful performance. Of course, some new content filling and expansion and imagination have been made on the basis of the original.

Sina Entertainment: After reading the script, do you feel the biggest challenge is the presentation of the long shot?

Hu Ge: Indeed, the biggest difficulty for this part of me today lies in the technical operation of the long lens, including the fact that I have to play three roles on this occasion, which is also particularly difficult.

Sina Entertainment: Have you had such relevant experience before?

Hu Ge: No. But there may be more such forms in stage play. For example, in a stage play, I played this role one minute before, and then I quickly step down and change my costume, and then play another role on stage. It is often seen on stage. But it is very rare in film and television dramas.

Sina Entertainment: So the short film also needs to be changed quickly.

Hu Ge: Yes, so when we set makeup, we actually have a lot of pre-designs technically, how can we do it?From clothing to makeup to style (transition) in the fastest time.

is a good actor who can go to heaven and earth

Sina Entertainment: In fact, this is the second time Mr. Hu Ge participated in our most beautiful performance. The last time was in 2015. Do you remember the situation at that time? What new experience do you have this time?

Hu Ge: The most beautiful performance of Sina I understand is a stage for breakthroughs and challenges. The last time I played the role was also far away from me, and for that performance, I also prepared for more than a month. At that time, I had to meet the director's request to play a boxer. In more than a month, muscle gain increased girth. Although the time is short, I think whether it is one second or one hour, it should be kept in mind by the audience.

Sina Entertainment: Four years have passed, has your understanding of the most beautiful performances changed?

Hu Ge: Last time I wrote down my understanding of the most beautiful performance on paper very seriously. Of course I am also very serious this time. I am not lazy, but I did not write a word. I think it’s actually difficult to define performance in words, especially the most beautiful performance.

Sina Entertainment: So which drama or moment brought you such a change in thinking?

Hu Ge: It may be a feeling brought to me by so many characters or works for so many years. I think there is no standard for performance itself, there is no standard for right or wrong.

Sina Entertainment: What do you think is the most beautiful moment of your performance so far?

Hu Ge: When I'm not acting in life, I think it should be the most beautiful. Look at what I said just now that you cannot use words to define it. I will define it casually now.

Sina Entertainment: Looking back on your long experience in the industry, what stages do you think your performance has gone through?

Hu Ge: It's hard for me to summarize it myself. To put it all together, I used to work hard to learn tricks and routines, but now I am desperately trying to hide these tricks and routines.

Sina Entertainment: What do you think is the key to being a good actor?

Hu Ge: You can go to heaven and earth. Just when you are in the sky, don’t forget that you still have two legs. You can still walk back. Don’t forget that you have legs when you are in the sky. Then you will be exhausted and there is not a bird. It can always fly.

should not use the amount of funds raised to measure the love of fans

Sina Entertainment: What do you think is the most beautiful moment of your performance in "The Party at Southern Station"?

Hu Ge: After the movie is released, I will tell you that you can't spoil it, and you must keep the mystery until December 6.

Sina Entertainment: What are your expectations for this movie now?

Hu Ge: I hope that its performance can be worthy of everyone's efforts. I mean the performance of the market.

Sina Entertainment: But you said some time ago that you don't need fans to raise funds to support the box office.

Hu Ge: You may have some misunderstandings about my last comment. I am not saying that you will not be allowed to buy tickets to support it. In fact, this is impossible. I agree with everyone buying tickets to watch my movies or booking a group to watch the movies.

I still don’t really agree with the amount of fan fundraising to measure or judge whether he is a senior fan or an excellent fan. I think this is a completely wrong standard, so I don’t really want to see these things in my heart. occurring. Sina Entertainment: In the course of your growth, how has the relationship between your fans and you changed?

Hu Ge: I just passed the 15th anniversary of the official website some time ago, and they have always been my motivation. I know their starting point is for my own good, so I am very grateful. I used to say that my fans and I are like friends who haven't seen each other, and we have each other in our hearts. But maybe I saw it on the road, and didn't know each other. It's such a relationship.

I should play a correct role in guiding them.

Sina Entertainment: In fact, now that fans raise funds to support movies or buy endorsements have become an industry phenomenon. Do you think this way of helping fans to help idols in their careers is desirable?

Hu Ge: I am not qualified to evaluate the fans of other artists. Everyone's starting point is good, all in order to let the artists I like can have a better career development. But at the level of execution and operation, everyone may have different ideas. According to my knowledge and standards, I don't want my fans to do such a thing.

on electricityThe movie found the motivation to continue acting

Sina Entertainment: In the past two years, you have also participated in the shooting of some movies and cooperated with some excellent directors. What do you think is your biggest gain in the past two years?

Hu Ge: Let me find the motivation to continue acting and the courage to completely return to life. In fact, what I feel most afraid of is a state of being incapable of getting better. It is red like a fallen leaf, but it also falls down. It drifts with the wind, but it has no vitality.

Sina Entertainment: What does it mean that it’s not high enough? Does it mean that actors must transform at the age of 30 and 35?

Hu Ge: What I mean is creativity and artistic vitality. For example, when the leaf is red, it will fall. For most people, if it falls, he will be scared and anxious. He always doesn’t want it to fall, but you have to think of it falling and withering. It rots in the soil, and it can have new life.

Sina Entertainment: When did you lose the motivation to create?

Hu Ge: There are often such things. Not only after 30 or 35 years old, in fact, when I was in my 20s, I was thinking about this issue. Because once you are characterized as a certain type of actor, or you are imprisoned in a certain type of film and television work, it is difficult to get out of this situation.

Sina Entertainment: Do you think your current transformation is successful?

Hu Ge: At least I have come out. It cannot be said to be unsuccessful. It has yet to be tested by the audience and the market, but at least I have come out.

Sina Entertainment: Everyone knows that actor is a relatively passive chosen profession, so is it difficult to come out this step? Hu Ge: It varies from person to person, sometimes it is forced, sometimes it is active.

Sina Entertainment: Many people think that 30 to 35-year-old actors have to transform. Do you think transformation is necessary?

Hu Ge: Not necessarily. Because if you can be an idol for a lifetime and have traffic and popularity for the rest of your life, that is also a benefit. The key is how you think about yourself.

If you are a life idol, I just enjoy the aura of idols, maybe not myself; but if you are a life idol, you can continue to bring positive energy to people who like you, that is a good thing.

Of course, some people prefer to concentrate on studying performances. He prefers to be accomplished in art or creation. That is another way.

But I think there is no comparison. Because it may be easier to take the first path before the age of 30. After reaching the age of 30, the first path may become more accurate.

Sina Entertainment: As an actor, have you ever encountered the so-called midlife crisis?

Hu Ge: Not yet. Because now I think maybe I have not really reached the stage of middle age, of course, when I choose a role, I will also deliberately avoid some roles such as father. Maybe when I reach a certain age, only a role like my father will come to me, and when no other young characters are looking for me, I may be in crisis because I have no life experience and I have not yet become A father, let me act as a father, or if I want to have a family in the play, it may be quite difficult for me.

Sina Entertainment: Now it is the industry’s cold winter for film and television, many good actors will not be able to receive the show for a long time, including the better projects on the market. There are fewer and fewer good projects. As a member of the industry, you have a personal touch Experience it?

Hu Ge: When winter comes, there are still many things to do. I think that if filming is not for food and clothing, it does not mean that I will have nothing to eat if I don’t film, and I can’t pay the rent. If there are no worries and worries in this regard, I think that when the cold winter comes, it is also good for health. Is it a good time? To put it more extreme, you can hibernate, right?

We can just take the opportunity to settle our impetuous heart. You can use this time to absorb and learn some new things.

Sina Entertainment: But some people may worry that if they don’t come out to film for a long time, they will be forgotten by the industry and the market.

Hu Ge: Back to the topic just mentioned, which way do you choose? If you are more inclined to the first way, there is indeed such a cruel reality. If you don't appear in front of the public for a long time, traffic popularity may drop more severely. But if you choose the second path, I don't think it will have much impact.
