Recently, the topic of well-known film and television actor Yang Mi’s article published in the extended version of c-issue quickly became a hot topic! The academic journal "China Radio and Television Journal" (cssci extended version, Peking University Chinese Core), which is in charge of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and sponsored by the China Federation of Radio and Television Social Organizations, published an article in the sixth issue in 2024 titled "A Brief Discussion on Film and Television Dramas The article "Creative Habits of Actors - Taking the TV Series Harbin 1944 as an Example" was signed by "Yang Mi". The reporter confirmed that the author of the above article is indeed Yang Mi, a well-known film and television actor.
Whether the papers published by Yang Mi have academic value and whether they are qualified to be published in Chinese journals has caused widespread controversy. In fact, it is natural for actors to write essays, because they have accumulated rich experience in their long-term acting careers, mastered relevant skills, and have in-depth thinking, especially those who are well-known and have performed many different types of roles. As for the actors who play the roles, it can be said that each of them has grown up through hard work in the market and gradually gained market recognition. They have profound accumulation.
Don’t think that these experiences and thoughts are of no value to society. On the contrary, these insights, sparks of thought, and practical experience are actually a mine to be developed. They condense the wisdom of individual actors and practitioners, and treasure their knowledge of performing arts and communication. There are many precious and valuable gems hidden in the laws and unique insights of screen language, which are worthy of careful research and development.
Of course, rich practical experience only provides good material. Whether the actor can reach a higher level and make academic achievements depends on the actor's own knowledge and hard work. The transformation from experience to scholarship, from opinion to systematic theory is the sublimation of thought and is not easy. But it is undeniable that such an effort is worth trying. "Chinese Journal of Radio and Television" belongs to the "cssci extended version" and is an important publication in the field of humanities and social sciences in my country. It has important academic status and influence in the field of news communication research and the radio and television industry. It can be included, which shows that Yang Mi's paper has certain academic value and has been recognized and affirmed by experts. There is no need to over-interpret it.
Actors exchange their performance experiences and academic achievements while performing works. This effort and exploration spirit are worthy of social encouragement. This practice should be encouraged in all walks of life. Academic research, especially research in the humanities and social sciences, should be grounded and closely linked to practice. The performing arts cannot be divorced from reality and work behind closed doors. Let outstanding actors, directors, and front-line practitioners join in academic research, feed back academics, let academics go out of campus, and draw nourishment from them. Only then can the performing arts profession develop. Better.
Before, actor Lin Gengxin was admitted to the Ph.D. program and was shortlisted for admission to Shanghai Theater Academy’s doctoral program in 2024, which once triggered everyone’s discussion. The actor's enthusiasm for studies has been universally recognized. The reason is actually very simple. He lives to learn, and his passion for true knowledge is also a common pursuit of everyone.
