Liu Qingyun is 58 years old.
He married Guo Aiming in 1998 and has been married for 24 years this year.
The wrinkles made him lose the gloom and ferocity of shooting shootout movies when he was young, but now, because of the years, he has more kindness.
What hasn’t changed is,
Liu Qingyun’s eyes were still clear and loose.
He is still habitually isolated from the outside world, like building a wall deep in his heart. The closer others are to him, the higher the fence.
Gloomy is his character and his acting temperament.
Some people feel that temperament limits Liu Qingyun.
In fact, this gloom made him.
Relying on this gloom, Liu Qingyun has played gangsters, gang bosses, masters, prodigals, criminals, mentally ill, poor people, and fools. He has played police officers, undercover agents, love addicts, negotiation experts, special forces, little people, big people…
In genre movies, he has acted in suspense, romance, comedy, crime, reasoning, song and dance, action, family, gunfight, and thriller.
Even if you encounter a god-killing god, Liang Jiahui who is killed by ghosts.
Liu Qingyun never fell behind.
He commented, "Liu Qingyun has always been a good actor.
We have worked together for many years. For a period of time, I even felt that only he could make movies, as if from the moment he was born, the things on his body existed for the sake of movies. "
But even Liu Qingyun, who was born for the movie, almost missed the movie when he was young. Back then, he was training in the TVB class. After applying for the exam, he was told that if he received the letter after a week, he would be admitted, and if he did not receive the letter, he would not be admitted.
After a week, Liu Qingyun did not receive the letter.
After another week, the letter still hasn’t arrived.
Liu Qingyun was not convinced, so he called TVB.
As a result, the phone said that the letter had been sent to you:
Today is the last day of registration, are you still coming?
Liu Qingyun didn’t wash his face, so he went to TVB to sign up with his bag. In this way, Liu Qingyun, who was unconvinced, entered the entertainment industry. He was the first batch of actors to enter the entertainment industry in Hong Kong.
However, Liu Qingyun did not enjoy the sweetness.
Not handsome, not handsome, in that TVB era, Liu Qingyun was buried as soon as he came up.
In those years, Liu Qingyun has been playing tricks, but in his career, he has forged his acting skills. In 1992, Wei Jiahui, the first producer of TVB, called him and asked him to go back to filming TV dramas.
This time, Liu Qingyun was on fire.
In 1992, Liu Qingyun’s "Big Time" became a hit.
Just like a burning torch, the next few years will belong to Liu Qingyun’s crazy burning and shining era.
In 1993, he starred in the horror film "July 14" and was nominated for Best Actor at the 13th Hong Kong Film Awards.
In 1994, Liu Qingyun co-starred with Yuan Yongyi and Liu Jialing in the film "New Love" directed by Ke’er Dongsheng, which won the Best Film at the 13th Hong Kong Film Awards.
As a result, Liu Qingyun has gradually gained a foothold in the Hong Kong film industry.
However, the light of the torch is limited after all, and Liu Qingyun soon encountered a problem. This problem is not his own problem.
It’s the entire Hong Kong film industry.
Hong Kong films have entered the tail of the golden age. Excellent directors either go north to the mainland or west to Hollywood. Hong Kong films continue to languish, and it seems that they are coming to an end and dying.
Until the "Galaxy Image" of "John To and Wei Jiahui" was killed, which gave a boost to the decline of Hong Kong movies.
To Qifeng and Wei Jiahui both like Liu Qingyun very much.
Liu Qingyun has almost become the royal actor of "Galaxy Image".
His acting skills are amazing.
Unlike Leung Ka Fai’s very explosive acting,
Liu Qingyun’s acting skills are composed of two words.
Liu Qingyun’s calmness was notoriously good-natured on the set.
Du Qifeng said that Liu Qingyun is the best actor after the second brother. Liu Qingyun is not only good at acting, but also popular. He is loyal to the movie and focuses on acting. He will also cooperate with the needs of other opponents and directors on the scene, and will not only care about himself.
This metric is beyond the reach of many people.
For example, Huang Qiusheng couldn’t do it.
Although Huang Qiusheng is very creative and good at acting,
Is a very explosive actor,
In some ways, he is better than Liu Qingyun, but Huang Qiusheng has a strong sense of self. He is more selfish in acting and rarely cares about the feelings of other actors or directors. Liu Qingyun does not.
Du Qifeng only needed to be responsible for the writing of the script. In the performance, almost the whole process was handed over to Liu Qingyun, and there was very little NG. Because, Liu Qingyun is real and not flashy.
Liu Qingyun is not the kind of actor who relies on twitching facial expressions or roaring body language to support his acting skills.
He’s actually very old-school,
Liu Qingyun’s eyes depended on his eyes.
This kind of look is different from the kind of eyes that pretend to be affectionate or deliberately trained. Liu Qingyun’s eyes suppress explosive power and never use too much force. To put it simply, Liu Qingyun’s forbearance-style performance has created a strong appeal in his heart.
To some extent, Liu Qingyun is the opposite of Zhou Xingchi.
Stephen Chow’s drama.
It is to tear apart emotions and uncover suffering.
Use language and body to mock it, tease it.
Liu Qingyun’s drama.
It is to hide emotions and swallow suffering.
Accept him verbally and physically, and resist him.
Liu Qingyun’s forbearance is straight to his heart, but it is unfathomable. To put it simply, you’d better not provoke this kind of person, otherwise he will go crazy. Crazy may do something out of the ordinary or kill.
This is exactly what Johnnie needs, the unyielding resistance of the little people.
How a person who has been ostracized, compressed, and ostracized in a big city has gone mad, and how he has to fight against this cannibalistic society and establishment.
It seems that "little people" can be seen everywhere, but few actors can really play little people well, because the difficulty is: balance.
Although life is more dramatic than movies, movies are ultimately a kind of performance, which is like a magnifying glass that magnifies people’s lives.
Actors express their emotions through a magnifying glass.
Unlike in life, a movie is only two hours long. How do you convince the audience that it only takes two hours to change their mood?
This requires an actor’s composure.
After a little bit, the force is too strong, and if the force is less, the role will be played mediocre and there will be no climax.
Liu Qingyun will not.
Because his early experiences had long smoothed him out, or rather, in that gloomy role, Liu Qingyun played himself.
He made his debut very early. As soon as he graduated in 1984, he participated in the TV work "Drawing Rainbows"; in 1985, he established a cold-faced image with the role of "Fit Guy" in the drama "Senior Brother Xinja", and has since risen to prominence.
Subsequently, a lot of costume dramas were performed.
But because Liu Qingyun has a darker complexion and looks like a mixed Asian, he has been criticized for his unconvincing appearance.
Even in 1987, a reporter criticized Liu Qingyun for playing Li Shimin in "The Grand Canal". The reporter said that Liu Qingyun’s appearance was abnormal and that he relied solely on his acting skills to make up for the defects in his appearance.
Due to his appearance and skin color, Liu Qingyun has been subject to personal attacks and questions for seven years, but each time he has only responded with a smile.
After 7 years, it is conceivable what Liu Qingyun has experienced.
He can play the kind of resistance and unyielding little people, rather, Liu Qingyun released his energy in the movie.
Especially when encountering an introverted role, Liu Qingyun’s forbearance and explosion were almost unparalleled.
So I said, Liu Qingyun and Zhou Xingchi are the same kind of people.
In those dark days, they were all extremely depressed and had extreme inferiority complex. They wanted to prove themselves madly. This gloomy temperament surrounded them for almost a lifetime, forming the unyielding and unwillingness in their eyes.
This is the commonality between Liu Qingyun and Zhou Xingchi.
Even like Zhou Xingchi, Liu Qingyun is serious about movies and characters, and even has an extremely stubborn and paranoid attitude.
In 2012, Liu Qingyun’s "Death Gold" was screened for less than 2 hours, but it took three years to film, and Liu Qingyun also spent three years brewing this role.
Liu Qingyun said that Johnnie gave the character a sense of absurdity, allowing him to deal with everything in one way.
In the end, this so-called wisdom or luck defeated the predictions of many financial experts, which is the absurdity of life.
"I think Du SIR likes this kind of absurdity very much, and this kind of absurdity gives rise to a sense of joy and destiny, and I will laugh when I watch this part. I played a lot of stupid roles when I was young, so Du SIR asked me to play again this time, and I am also very happy. This shows that he still remembers that I am a’bad boy expert ‘!"
This is Liu Qingyun’s original words. He only used "the absurdity derived from the sense of joy and destiny to summarize the whole character". If you are careful, this absurdity also appears in Zhou Xingchi’s movies.
But, as I said earlier
Zhou Xingchi’s nonsense is a complete tragedy, and Liu Qingyun will give people a power that is clearly destructive but upward.
Both men are searching for a place of light in the darkness.
Stephen Chow is inward-looking, he is more realistic and passionate, while Liu Qingyun is outward-looking, he is more idealistic and more prosaic.
They are all very contradictory, one is realistic and passionate, the other is ideal and plain, and one of the things that makes them so contradictory is that Liu Qingyun has found someone he loves and loves.
Liu Qingyun was luckier than Stephen Chow.
He has Guo Aiming.
Liu Qingyun and Guo Aiming are a pair of immortals.
This idol drama has been on the air for more than 20 years.
Indifferent to the world, gentle to you alone.
Xiao Lin Qingxia said that Liu Qingyun is a male god, which has been mentioned many times on the program. Tang Wei, who is indifferent to literature and art, turned into a fan girl at first sight, and her idol doesn’t like to talk much and doesn’t disturb her. There are also people who have been drugged, Ye Xuan, Yan Ni, Li Ruotong, Wen Bixia, Zhou Huimin…
However, when Liu Qingyun saw a beauty, it was like seeing wood.
In 2003, Xiao Lin Qingxia collaborated with Liu Qingyun to film "New Love". Except for filming, Liu Qingyun was alone. Xiao Lin Qingxia asked him, why don’t you even look at me.
Liu Qingyun’s answer was: I have a wife.
Liu Qingyun, who has always been restrained, would also write a love letter to his wife publicly: "When I miss you, I will read our previous chat again, and then unconsciously giggle."
He fell in love with Guo Aiming when he saw her.
When they first started dating, the two passed by a flower stall in Central. At that time, Guo Aiming saw the flower and said it was very beautiful. Then Liu Qingyun immediately went back and bought it.
To this day, both of them are still in love at the age of 50.
Guo Aiming likes to watch animations and do yoga. Liu Qingyun does yoga with his wife in the morning and watches cartoons that children love to watch.
Accompanied by more than 20 years, in a flash of a finger.
When in love, wearing a couple’s hat and a couple’s shirt is normal.
However, both of them are 58 and 54.
They still don’t see each other enough.
Liu Qingyun, wherever he went, he had to involve his wife’s hand.
Even eating a Western meal is the same.
And of course, the famous–
Mr. Liu, an enthusiastic citizen.
He was shopping for groceries to cook for his wife.
Of course, the most affectionate confession is,
The second time he won the Golden Statue Best Actor – he said:
"Every time I drive a spaceship and fly to an unknown place in the universe, you always have a way to make me return to Earth safely.", look at the lady in the audience.
Guo Aiming under the stage heard this, and his eyes were red and swollen
But then he smiled and pouted,
So cute.
After being married for so many years, she seemed to have never aged.
After all these years of marriage, the two still travel hand in hand.
Someone asked Liu Qingyun: "If I were 25 years old, would I still be an actor?"
He replied without hesitation: "If I started over at 25, I would not be an actor and do something else.
But I still want to go back and see Guo Aiming. "
Married for over 20 years.
The 58-year-old Liu Qingyun and the 54-year-old Guo Aiming also turned six immediately. The two of them already had wrinkles and their faces began to age.
However, they don’t seem to have changed.
He is still the husband who loves him like a child, and she is still the wife who adorns him and accompanies her in countless late nights.
People always say that Liu Qingyun is a favorite wife.
But in fact, in the marriage, it was Guo Aiming who had been working hard and giving silently and tolerating. Liu Qingyun once said that he was emotionally unstable, lonely and unsocial. In countless late nights, Guo Aiming accompanied him through one dark day after another.
From my family of origin to the low point of my acting career,
Liu Qingyun, this journey has not been smooth.
"My mood is very unstable," he said. "Only Guo Aiming can calm me down and make me feel at home. She has become a part of my body." He can no longer leave her.
This love extends to Liu Qingyun’s performance.
1999 was his performance breaking point. Previously, Liu Qingyun was very fierce, but later, Liu Qingyun became more in love.
His little people also have good and evil, but his eyes always reveal that surrounded by darkness, there are still twinkling stars.
What she sighed was that if Lord Xing met her Guo Aiming, would the outcome be different? No one knew.
