From "The Dragon King with a crooked mouth" to "Dream of China", actor Guan Yunpeng became popular!


Special feature of 1905 film network "Three years have come, and the Dragon King has returned to his place … …”Perhaps many people will immediately think of the online advertisement with the classic "Nike laugh" when they see this sentence. Yes, this smile is from actor Guan Yunpeng.



Compared with his real name, male audiences are more accustomed to calling him "the dragon king with a crooked mouth"; In the eyes of girls, he is the love security guard of Gu Qianfan and Zhao Paner in the hit drama — — Chen Lian.


From the popularity of short videos to the fact that the characters are really familiar to the audience. Guan Yunpeng ushered in a new starting point.



It’s just that we will also be curious. After this popularity, there are more opportunities for mainstream film and television works. Has this young man found his own position in the flashy entertainment circle, or will he choose to drift away from the label of "the Dragon King with a crooked mouth" in the future?


When Guan Yunpeng faced the lens of the 1905 film network, the story still began with Dream of China.



Only when he said, the audience liked Chen Lian’s cuteness and his eye strength, "but I particularly felt sorry for him. What experience made him understand the world so much?"


At that moment, actor Guan Yunpeng and character Chen Lian had already finished a dialogue in their hearts.


Perhaps, when Guan Yunpeng was thinking about Chen Lian’s family, he saw himself who worked hard for the actor’s dream at first and the typical Chinese family behind him, who silently supported him.


Vol.1 regression


Guan Yunpeng received the news that he was confirmed to play Chen Lian, which was around 7 am on New Year’s Day in 2021.


I was surrounded by friends who had fun with me the night before last. "I was really excited and everyone hugged each other." For me at that time, it was a work that officially returned to the film and television circle after the’ Dragon King’. "


The word he used was "regression".



In 2016, when he first appeared in the film and television drama "Student Soldier", he regarded the actor as a profession. However, for a long time, it was one of his peaks.


What’s more, in Meng Hua Lu, the partner is with — — He has always been a goddess in his heart.



Like every professional actor, Guan Yunpeng wrote a complete biography of Chen Lian before his performance — — The situation of his family, the psychological activities he will have when he treats different roles.


In the drama, the role is given a simple setting, and there are three sisters at home. At that time, I thought he could not be a son, so I originally named him "Chen Lian". "So I think Chen Lian’s mother is very kind, and the eldest sister is the person who runs the family. The second sister may fight with me. When we fight, my mother will say,’ Stop it, look at your eldest sister … …’ "



What’s more, Chen Lian is only a 17-year-old boy. Although he works as a policeman in the Imperial City Company, he is still slightly more delicate than his colleagues around him.


After nearly five months of shooting and more than 30 days of broadcasting, Guan Yunpeng and Chen Lian have become one.



He will discuss with Daisy, Chen Lian’s official actor Ge Zhaodi in the play, "When did the two characters start to go in both directions?"


In Guan Yunpeng’s eyes, when Chen Lian saw each other’s family environment, he felt a feeling of distress. "Because this is a living environment that Chen Lian has never lived in, under such an environment, the little girl can still be so independent. Although Chen Lian is still cute and spoiled, she has a responsibility at that time. I want to protect you."



From family background to growth, Guan Yunpeng made up for Chen Lian’s everything, or just "love security" in front of the audience, but in his narrative, Chen Lian completed the evolution from boy to man.


But at the end of the series, the actors will say goodbye to their roles after all. Guan Yunpeng especially thanked Chen Lian for coming to his life and letting the audience see the real actor after the "Dragon King".



Just recalling the days when Chen Lian knew each other, he was even more sad. "I really feel sorry for him. What kind of experience can make him so sensible and so discerning?" During his transfer from Tokyo to Qiantang, did he suffer a lot? Why did he transfer here when he was still in Tokyo? Has he been bullied? Did he think about his mother and sister when he was bullied? "


Perhaps, he really knows Chen Lian too well.


Vol.2 Jia


The image of parents is the missing existence of Chen Lian in the play, which has become the key for Guan Yunpeng to complement his character.The story in the play may reflect the feelings of Guan Yunpeng’s parents outside the play.


Guan Yunpeng decided to be an actor from an early age. As a child, he was always the child who took the initiative to sing and dance at family gatherings. But when they grow up, adults still regard this kind of thing as a joke.


The junior high school teacher once laughed, "Do you still want to be a star?" At that time, he didn’t understand these things either. In the small city where he lived and studied, no one was engaged in this business, or knew about it, but he knew in his heart that he didn’t want to be a star, but he just liked acting.



In order to realize this, the university "rebelliously" chose the art test against the wishes of the parents who work in the bank, and applied for the broadcasting major to save the country. Just as his family expected him to find a job as a comforter in TV station after graduation, he chose the drama "Student Soldier".


After playing this drama, he signed a contract with the company at that time and acted in two works. There is no fame, and there is no splash. The most unfortunate thing is that after filming two plays, the company’s brokerage department was dissolved.


There is no income, and there are many fewer opportunities. However, Guan Yunpeng is still convinced that he has already started, has worked, and knows some brokers. Only by constantly looking for opportunities to try out, he will certainly be able to go up.


In those years, Guan Yunpeng lived in a poor life and lived in a rented house near Communication University of China, which was a group rented house with two rooms and one living room divided into six rooms.


It was at that time that he received an olive branch from a live broadcast company, with a basic salary of 4,000 yuan plus commission. Sounds like a good salary, what’s more, it was the era when live broadcasting just started. Looking around, there were opportunities.



It has been broadcast live for 30 days day and night, but Guan Yunpeng received feedback from the company that he started broadcasting on the 2nd, which can’t be counted as one month, so he can’t pay this month’s salary. In fact, he bought all the live broadcast equipment by borrowing money for this purpose.


When he realized that this was not an opportunity, but a trap, he gave up the cooperation behind him decisively. As for the arrears, he could only make up slowly by following up opportunities.


At first, Guan Yunpeng didn’t dare to let his family know these things. After all, for the choice of drifting north, "no one in the family supports it."



In the eyes of his parents, Guan Yunpeng had a meal at that time, so he might as well go home to take an examination of a civil servant or have a stable job, even if the salary is not high, just be steady for a lifetime.


This has become a tug-of-war between Guan Yunpeng and his family. His mother will cry to him, and his father will earnestly persuade him. His sister’s sentence, "You are so old, you still let your parents worry", has become his most heartfelt words.


In the education of a typical Chinese family, emotional kidnapping is the most deadly, and Guan Yunpeng is powerless to refute it.


Not only that, parents will ask his brothers and sisters with good relationships every three to five times to give hints, "Is it time to go home" and "Do you want to take an exam?"The more emotionally bound, the more Guan Yunpeng wants to show them a day.


Later, he received a performance opportunity for online advertisements. In fact, at that time, he was also worried that if he performed these advertisements, would it have an impact on his future performance opportunities? However, the reality of livelihood, online loans and so on is in front of him. "I have to take care of my own food and clothing problems so that I can better pursue my dreams."


Therefore, Guan Yunpeng played the "Long Wen" in the online advertisement, and that crooked smile was specially designed by himself.



Unexpectedly, this design made this information flow advertisement burst, and the team felt that it was particularly good to hit the crooked mouth at the end of the video, so that when Guan Yunpeng performed this series of works again later, the script would be specially marked with a sentence, "Smile with a crooked mouth".


This smile, on the contrary, attracted the concern of the brothers around him, and even jokingly persuaded Guan Yunpeng, "I used to shoot TV dramas, but now what are these videos? It’s embarrassing."


But this is precisely the sincerity between brothers. When they were in decline, they paid for it. On the contrary, after the fire broke out in Dream of China, they didn’t look for him again, because they knew that now was his busiest time, "I will come to you later."



But for parents, the success of the Dragon King is to let go of the heart that has been hanging for many years. After all, when children are away, parents always want their children to be well, but the concern of relatives and friends around them will make this mood deteriorate.


After the broadcast of Meng Hua Lu, Guan Yunpeng’s mother gave him various publicity in the circle of friends, and occasionally gave him a call and sent a WeChat, saying the most, "Mom and Dad can’t help you. You are very tired and bitter on this road. You have to rely on yourself."



Because of filming "Dream of China", Guan Yunpeng went home for only a week last year, and this year’s work is slowly on track, and the time to go home is gradually decreasing.


A few days ago, my mother sent him a WeChat, "Son, my mother knows that you are very busy. Although my mother can’t see you, my parents are still very happy to see you on the Internet and on TV, and I feel that you are right beside me."


Guan Yunpeng is also thinking about it these days. When the drama currently being filmed is finished, he may be able to bring his parents to live in Beijing for a while.


Vol.3 juvenile


After the "crooked mouth dragon king", people will recognize Guan Yunpeng one after another on the road.


Although he has become an artist, performing is becoming more and more professional, but for himself, many things have not changed. He is still an ordinary person in life. He will go skateboarding in the square in his spare time. "Everyone will generally recognize it and will not come directly to say hello, just smile at each other."



As for the label of "the dragon king with a crooked mouth", he won’t worry about whether to take it off. 5G surfer, he has already seen netizens use the identity of "Dragon King" to interpret the ending of Dream of China. "When" Dragon King "and" Chen Lian "dream together, there may be other roles in the future, which is very interesting."



Some people will worry that when the label is too heavy, they will face more and more homogeneous roles. Guan Yunpeng still maintains his confidence in the past. "I think I can shape different roles myself."


As the "Dragon King" said, I have no illusions about the future, but I always look forward to it.Then when it becomes completely popular in the future, will it begin to reject "crooked mouth smile"?"No, I won’t have idol baggage."


See, after becoming popular, it’s still the teenager who comes back. Smiling with an oblique mouth is not a label, but confidence in the depths of love.
