Guo Jingfei has a good teacher who once taught him history.
Guo Jingfei fell into confusion in his life when he was young. When he was a teenager, he was in the video hall every day, and almost went astray. At this time, he happened to meet his history teacher, who told him that there was no future if he continued like this, and then led him on the right path.
From looking for material from a TV station to introducing him to the crew as a production manager, it was the history teacher who brought him into the show business. Guo Jingfei rekindled his desire to be an actor, and finally got admitted to STA.
It can be said that Guo Jingfei's current life started from that history teacher. "He is an angel who is very important to me in this life, he saved me." Guo Jingfei said.

When Guo Jingfei saw the role of Hao Nan, he quickly decided to continue, "I haven't had much exposure to youth dramas, and I haven't played a teacher seriously. I'm a little curious and want to try it. It's quite new." But More importantly, this role "is my memory of him", and the play is also "as a gift to the history teacher to pay tribute to him".
What the teacher wants to convey is sincerity and kindness
In the episode "The Days of Chasing Light", Hao Nan is an "atypical teacher". When he appeared on the stage, he had long hair, opened a billiard hall, and was followed by a group of younger brothers. According to secular standards, Hao Nan is a loser. From the three-foot podium to the smoky billiard hall, he gave up on himself, "It's like being a bad guy, or even being a ruffian." But in fact, Hao Nan just couldn't face an education He never forgot his sense of mission as a teacher, even if he was a ruffian, he was still a ruffian who would tutor children in mathematics.
Fortunately, by chance, because of his performance in public classes many years ago, a principal remembered him and invited him to be a math teacher and head teacher of the third year of high school. Obviously, with that period of life experience, Hao Nan is different from other teachers. He does not play cards according to routines, but he is a good teacher. Guo Jingfei also took a fancy to the uniqueness of this "spicy teacher", "This is an interesting teacher, and it also needs an interesting soul."
Guo Jingfei as Hao Nan
Although he had never acted as a teacher before playing Hao Nan, Guo Jingfei did not communicate with his history teacher in advance. It stands to reason that it was a ready-made example, but he felt that there was no need to ask, "What did he do to me? That is what a good teacher did." look." As long as he recalls how the teacher enlightened himself and paid for himself, it is enough for him to find the fulcrum of a good teacher. Secondly, each teacher also has his or her own different professional habits, which is something you don’t need to prepare for, “This kind of professional habits is familiar to each of us, because we have also been students and have seen it before. "
At the level of Guo Jingfei, the shape seems too basic. He goes straight to the core and considers what the teacher wants to convey. "His appearance, his habits, and his gestures are elementary or low-level designs. We have to turn ourselves into For a teacher, to feel his experience, the most important thing is to find out what the teacher wants to convey, the teacher's mentality, values and cognition of the world." Guo Jingfei's perception is that what the teacher wants to convey is sincerity, kindness, and work around.
"The profession of a teacher is very sacred and very important, but every profession may have a 28-80 rule. There are many teachers who can't teach people well and mislead their children. It is very scary. We have all encountered that kind of bad teacher. It is really off-putting, and it will make us not want to study and loathe study. Hao Nan speaks equally to his classmates, and he can also talk to classmates in the same way as classmates.”

At least that's what the teacher who saved him from the fire and water back then did. He was like a friend with him, "Respect is the first thing between people. I personally hate relationships with very clear grades. If you only let students obey you What is difficult to teach? The student has completed the exercises, the test papers, and the grades, but he will have many psychological problems." Hao Nan may be an ideal character, but he is not a "perfect" teacher , "It's okay to say that he is a ruffian, he is like a classmate, an older classmate."
In addition to being equal, Guo Jing believes that what this teacher should really value is the future of the students. The history teacher not only treats him as an equal, but also inspires and guides him, so that he never loves studying to loves reading. Watching the culture class again, when he felt that people are selfish, the teacher told him, "You have to be sincere to others." "These are not absolutely correct, but they are relatively correct, especially in the current educational environment. I think teacher education itself should pay more attention to a person's healthy future. Rather than the amount of information, Baidu Encyclopedia has those things .”
The painless college entrance examination
Although there are individual differences, the college entrance examination is the common memory of every Chinese. If you use one word to describe it, most people may associate it with pain. The beginning of this drama is the pain of student Ren Zhen (played by Ren Min). . Looking back on his high school, Guo Jingfei felt that he didn't seem to feel very painful, "Every time is summer, the cicadas sing and the whole air is filled with that kind of tense atmosphere."
He took the exam two or three times, but he can't remember the details. Every time, he passed the professional courses, but failed the culture courses. I don’t remember the mood of failing the exam, but what remains in his memory are some strange and interesting observations, “Every time the exam room is filled with people from art schools, I watch all kinds of gods, for example, when someone is in the exam Make dice out of rubber and roll the dice there."

Of course, Guo Jingfei also admitted that from the point of view of art students, grades don’t mean everything, “It’s not that they don’t study, it’s not that they are uneducated, it’s just that he read what he wanted to read. After he went to college, he knew that he wanted to learn. What, what do I need to see." He himself was a resident of the library when he was in college, and fell in love with reading.
Some of the views in this play are quite consistent with Guo Jingfei, such as "grades are not the only standard and way out", so he is also very happy to act, and some of Hao Nan's lines are also from his heart, "I completely agree with this education. Improvement, in the past students only had one course to take the college entrance examination, now there are many more choices, in fact, the teacher should discover, guide and encourage students to do what they want to do and what they are good at.” In the whole drama, he was most touched by the bridge At the end of the paragraph, Hao Nan shared the theme of "time" with his classmates.
Not only does he agree with the point of view in the play, from the perspective of his age, Guo Jingfei can be the teacher of the young actors in the play, but he also has the same idea as the teacher Hao Nan on the set, "mingling together" and never preaching, even he feels young The actors infused him with the simplicity he wanted, "I appreciate them in many places, because I have left my youth, my vitality is not as strong as them, that is the most precious, it is a natural thing, I see them sincerity."

"There is no such thing as a true winner"
Guo Jingfei used to be in the limelight with his superb acting skills in school and on the drama stage, but when he officially entered the TV series, there was a period of silence. Later, because of the role of Su Mingcheng in "Everything is Good", Guo Jingfei's acting skills were once again praised by the audience. The roles he played came out of the circle one after another, especially Yu Huanshui and Li Tang.
If you want to say what these characters have in common, it may be mourning, or more precisely, they are all losers in some kind of life. Guo Jingfei played the middle-aged person who is still losing.
In fact, Hao Nan also has this characteristic. At the beginning of the chapter, he looks like a loser. He changed from a teacher to a gangster. He was scolded by former students. After receiving the invitation to be a teacher, he struggled all night. Can I get back to doing such a decent job again.
Always play loser so well, what do all losers have in common? Guo Jingfei feels that there is no pattern, "Some have a big temper, and they are just losers who have always been submissive. Some think it is good to be a loser, and some are not willing to be a loser. There are all kinds of beings, and there are no characteristics. Each role is different, but you have to follow the opponent. Change, sometimes the opponent does not act according to the script, and sometimes he gives you a new stimulus, for example, in this scene, you thought he would be good, but the other party is angry, it is different for different losers, as a life It is against the law to hit someone with your own hands, but as a teacher, you have to try your best to solve and calm your emotions. The professional attributes are different, and the actors' reactions are also different."

This is analyzed from the perspective of acting skills. In his heart, Guo Jingfei has really thought through the worldly success and failure.
"Actually, I think audiences are willing to watch losers now. This is a mentality problem. Besides, I think everyone has improved aesthetically. After reaching a certain age and reaching a dimension, you find that there is no Winners, no one is successful, everyone is Yu Huanshui, he is an ecology, there will always be people who restrain you. You have made money, and you have mobile phones and videos to monitor you, all people are like this, there is no such thing as A real winner. A person has many sides, and everyone has a failure side. Especially I may be a slightly pessimistic person, looking for the truth, and in the end you may face failure, no one succeeds. As an actor You have to play this side, so that everyone can resonate. In TV dramas, this is my duty as an actor. I am happy to tell everyone that no matter how painful life is, there is still brilliance. You have to discover it. We live in the dark Here, most people with a little brain know it, but how should we find the light? This is what we have to solve, and we can work hard to solve it.”

While talking, I can feel that Guo Jingfei is actually a bit sad. He can easily deconstruct the problem to "nothing". "I've already passed that stage. What kind of responsibility do I want to fulfill in the script? That's all. It's not that complicated. I don't write biographies of characters. There are no too complicated characters in TV dramas. The attributes of TV dramas are just A... (point of view) for the public, there is no need to analyze how the characters are doing, don’t embody the values so hard, you have to believe in yourself, and then respect the audience, don’t make some gimmicks to deceive people.”
For another example, he was interested in philosophy when he was in college. His favorite sentence about philosophy used to be "existence is reasonable", but now he added the sentence "let nature take its course". It is naturally irrefutable, and four words are enough. In fact, after thinking about it, I think it is quite boring, but the process cannot be ignored, just like you have to ask questions after completing your work, I also It must be answered." One sentence seems to eliminate the meaning of the reporter's work.
"The interview work you mentioned seems to be meaningless?"
"Meaningful, is to live. It's quite pessimistic. But I just face it in an optimistic way. Existence is reasonable. You first tolerate you and don't get angry. It's actually more remarkable to let nature take its course. A solution has been given. When it comes to the adjustment step, just do what you like."
