Situation comedies, also known as sitcoms, first appeared on the radio and later evolved to the television screen. Actors filming sitcoms are like acting exams. There are not only stages but also cameras in the studio. Due to the shooting mode, there are not many opportunities to pause. This is a special test for the actors’ performance skills, especially for dramas that are filmed and broadcast. An episode of freshly released characters with a tacit understanding, can truly "live" in the built living space, do not forget the focus of the camera when lying flat, and take into account the reaction of the audience, which is a kind of for adult actors No small challenge, let alone small actors in a sitcom.

There are not many talented players, and there are even fewer children who can handle the big scene. Looking back, there are many child actors who have emerged from sitcoms, but after their smash hits, each has its own ups and downs.

Some people choose to return to ordinary people more rationally, study, work, marry and have children, and embark on another path; more people are trapped in the "childhood label" and image, and their acting careers may stagnate or hinder in adulthood. Those who can break through They are rare, but fortunately, the road of acting is all about persistence. When you encounter suitable works, coupled with the performance experience accumulated early, they will surely bloom quietly.

Guan Ling

Jia Yuanyuan in "I Love My Family" has a chubby face and crescent bangs, which is very rare. Guan Ling, the actor who plays her, is a clever little ghost at first glance.

Guan Ling was born in 1982. Since the age of 7, he has studied in the performance training class of the Children's Palace in Dongcheng District, Beijing. He has a solid performance of "children's skills". At that time, director Yingda went to the Children's Palace to choose, but there was no suitable one after a round of selection. In the end, Guan Ling's teacher Han Meiying recommended to Yingda: "There is another child who looks very similar to Song Dandan." In this way, the 11-year-old Guan Ling stepped into the showbiz because of her unique looks and became a "national girl".

In the next few years, Guan Ling participated in many sitcoms such as "Chinese Restaurant", "Psychological Clinic" and "Happy Family", but the splash was not big and the sense of presence was not strong.

At the age of 21, she was recommended to be admitted to Beijing Institute of Technology for her undergraduate degree in international trade, and at the same time, she was also admitted to the school's master's degree in management and economics.

After graduating from graduate school, she continued to take on film and television dramas, and participated in film and television dramas such as "The Story of Yuanyuan", "Zhang Xiaowu's Spring", "Love God Comes" and "Golden Fortune".

It wasn't until 2009 that Guan Ling himself and Zhou Xiaogang directed the sitcom "I Love My Family 2" "The Story of Yuanyuan" and played Jia Yuanyuan in the play, which attracted a lot of attention. The audience suddenly discovered that Xiao Yuanyuan has grown up.

Now Guan Ling has also developed into a multi-habit artist integrating actor, host and producer. Brainy, eloquent, high emotional intelligence, married early, with both sons and daughters, it is said that the nickname of the youngest daughter is Yuanyuan.

Yang Zi

With a smile, two dimples, and eyes that can speak, Yang Zi, who can speak well, played Xia Xue in the sitcom "Family with Children", and became popular all over the country at the age of 12. But after that, there was no filming for a long time, and I was very anxious every day.

Stills of "Family with Children"

Until 2014, she successively starred in popular dramas such as "Battle of Changsha", "Ode to Joy", "Sweet Honey as Ashes as Frost", "Dear, Loved", and became a first-line star. Yang Zi is a representative figure of successful child stars. She keeps proving her appeal and plasticity in the current film and television market. Although her star journey is a bit bumpy, she also proves how important it is to work hard and never give up.

Stills of "Battle in Changsha"

Yang Zi (formerly known as Yang Ni'ao) was born in Beijing in 1992. His father, Yang Yunfei, is a firefighter, and his mother, Ma Haiyan, graduated from the Russian Language Teachers' Academy and is a voice actress.

In 1997, even if Yang Zi officially debuted, she played roles in many film and television dramas such as "Spring Rhapsody", "So Out of the Mountain", "The Secret History of Xiaozhuang" and "The Mansion Gate", but most of them were role roles, with only a few scenes. A few lines.

Until 2004, the large-scale sitcom "Family with Children" auditioned actors across the country. The assistant director inadvertently saw little Yang Zi arguing with the peddler, and found that although Yang Zi was weak on the outside, he was stubborn and fierce in his heart, which matched Xia Xue's temperament. Therefore, the assistant director recommended Yang Zi to director Lin Cong.

When filming "Family with Children", Yang Zi often hid in the quilt and cried, because the lines memorized the first day may completely change the next day. But it was this kind of impromptu exercise that made Yang Zi's performance improve rapidly. She played Xia Xue vividly and was very successful.

In addition, Yang Zi's appearance has always been controversial. Song Dandan once said that she is not beautiful enough, and it is better to give up being an actress. But Yang Zi is very stubborn in her bones. She keeps improving herself, no matter in terms of image or acting skills, and finally has her own place in the entertainment industry.

Yang Zi, Song Dandan

Now, at the age of 30, as the queen of ratings, almost every drama can set off a boom in ratings. This summer's "Sauvignon Blanc" is another hit.

When Yang Zi was asked if she had age anxiety, she replied, "When I was young, I really hoped that I would grow up quickly. When I was 30, I realized how beautiful life is after 30. Because this age has nothing to do with appearance. I think it’s a state of mind, I’m 30 years old, and my state of mind is 18, I feel like an attractive girl, which makes me very happy!”

Yang Zi confronts age anxiety

Yes, who wouldn't love a girl who has a sense of humor and is generous?

Zhang Yishan

In "Family with Children", Liu Xing, played by Zhang Yishan, is clever, naughty and mischievous. This drama is tailor-made for Zhang Yishan, and the audience shouted, "Who doesn't have a Liu Xing anymore!"

Stills of "Family with Children"

When Zhang Yishan was filming this drama, he not only got advice from Song Dandan on acting, but also gained Yang Zi, a good friend with deep feelings.

Yang Zi, Zhang Yishan

Looking at the jumping up and down in the play, in fact, Zhang Yishan was physically weak when he was a child, and his parents sent him to a martial arts school when he was five years old. In the martial arts school, although the life training was very difficult, but because of his naturally cheerful personality, he became the happy fruit of the martial arts school. From Zhang Yishan, you can see that he has a strong imitation ability and performance tension, he can imitate to the essence at once.

At that time, the casting director of "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" commented on him: "This kid is very spiritual, I like him very much, he is a good face."

In 2010, Zhang Yishan finally entered the Beijing Film Academy he had been looking forward to. Zhang Yishan recalled in the "Long Reader" program that in college, the teacher said that graduation as an actor means unemployment. He did not rush for quick success, but slowly waited for the opportunity.

From 2016 to 2017, Zhang Yishan's multiple TV dramas were broadcast in turn. The criminal investigation online drama "Remaining Sin" made him popular again, and won the "Best Online Drama Actor Award" for China's Good Actor in 2017 with this drama, and then starred in The TV series "Ten Miles of Spring Breeze, Not as Good as You" and "Seven Me" were broadcast successively, and were respectively selected as the "Most Beautiful Performance" Outstanding Actor of the Year and shortlisted for the "Best Actor Award" in the 24th Huading Awards for Chinese contemporary TV dramas.

At this time, he finally succeeded in getting rid of the "childhood label" of "Liu Xing".

The good times didn't last long. Since his partner Pan Yueming starred in the spy drama "The Man in the Game" in 2019, Zhang Yishan began to encounter professional bottlenecks. In 2020, his overly exaggerated performance in "The New Deer and Ding Tale" attracted negative reviews.

Gossips such as "Break Up Door" and "Beauty at the Hotel Night Party" have also made him gradually controversial, causing damage to his career and stagnating. In fact, Zhang Yishan does not lack acting skills. I don't know if it is because of impetuousness or failure in casting. The works are not popular, and the variety shows are not good. Little by little, Zhang Yishan gradually has nothing to do with good works and good acting skills.

Until this year, the TV series "Zeng Juvenile" was broadcast. The film tells the story of the happy friends Qin Chuan and Xie Qiao who grew up together and supported each other along the way. There were several relationships, but they all ended without a problem.

Stills of "Zeng Boy"

This play is starring Zhang Yishan, Guan Xiaotong, Fan Chengcheng and others. Qin Chuan played by Zhang Yishan is a very Beijing-style and very clever character. Judging from many plots in the play, he also worked hard on this character. I hope that Zhang Yishan can play steadily and devote himself to practicing acting skills. Although it takes early to become famous, an actor is always supported by good works.

Wu Lei

Wu Lei was born in Shanghai in 1999. At the age of 24, he has been in the industry for 21 years. He can be called an "old actor".

Wu Lei was very lively and cute when he was a child, with rich facial features and rich expressions. In 2002, the 3-year-old Wu Lei was selected by the commercial director and shot more than 50 commercials in the next two years.

In order to become an actor, Wu Lei's mother specially sent him to an acting training school. At that time, the crew of "Fengshen Bangming: Fengming Qishan" went to the art school to pick out young actors, and 6-year-old Wu Lei recommended himself. After the director saw his information, he immediately settled down, and then there was that smart and cute little Nezha.

The film was broadcast on CCTV, and Little Nezha left a deep impression on the audience. It is said that the temperature was minus four degrees Celsius during the filming, and he did not cry when he entered the water wearing a bellyband. He was very "dedicated" at a young age.

Little Nezha

In 2009, director Shang Jing planned a sitcom based on a family of earthlings and aliens, and invited Wu Lei to play the role of the youngest son in the play. . In "Aliens at Home", Wu Lei played almost his true colors, playing Tang Bukuren Xiao Guida who was very naughty and clever, which made the audience feel very real.

In 2011, Wu Lei filmed another 100-episode sitcom "The Naughty Boy Ma Xiaotiao".

"Naughty Bao Ma Xiaotiao" is directed by director Li Honghe, starring Wu Lei, Zhang Shi, Xia Lixin, Fang Zige and others. The play is adapted from Yang Hongying's series of novels of the same name. It revolves around the primary school student Ma Xiaotiao, telling the happy life of contemporary naughty children and the anecdotes that happen around them.

From a child star in commercials all the way to shine in film and television dramas, Wu Lei was born with a lot of star luck.

After that, Wu Lei also played Xiao Yang Guo in "The Legend of Condor Heroes", and later won the Most Potential Actor Award at the National Drama Festival for his role in "Nirvana in Fire".

In 2018, he played the role of young Yang Ping in the movie "Shadow" directed by Zhang Yimou. In 2021, he starred in the costume idol drama "Long Song Xing". . And the TV series "It's Just Love", which will be broadcast in 2023, let the audience see the mature charm of Wu Lei's younger brother.

Stills of "The Stars Are Brilliant, The Moon Rises into the Sea"

Although he grew up in the entertainment circle, compared with male stars of the same age, Wu Lei behaves in a mature and polite manner. He is very considerate and respectful to his colleagues in and out of the play, and he is also very dedicated to his work. This is why he can be an actor in his career a major factor in the rising tide.

Riding him in the VLOG, he releases his youthful nature and is full of strong desire to explore the world. He can say a few words when he meets strangers on the street and everywhere, "This ride gave me a lot of happiness. At that time When I was riding, someone asked me the way, and I said I am not a local hahaha."

Become famous at a young age, self-improvement and self-discipline, the future is even more limitless.

Shasha Wang

Wang Shasha was born on January 18, 1992 in Handan City, Hebei Province. In "Little Soldier Zhang Ga", Wang Shasha played Yingzi, a small anti-Japanese hero. "Little Soldier Zhang Ga" can be regarded as an incubator for child stars, but many people have no impression of the role of Yingzi. Later, she played Mo Xiaobei in "Wulin Biography", but she became a well-known child star in everyone's mind.

Stills of "Wulin Biography"

Mo Xiaorenjing is the younger sister of Mo Xiaobao, the head of the Hengshan School, and lives with her sister-in-law Tong Xiangyu in the Tongfu Inn. Later, Mo Xiaobei became the head of the Hengshan School and the general leader of the Wuyue Sword School. In the play, Mo Xiaobei really made the audience happy, but who would have thought that Mo Xiaobei was Wang Shasha's pinnacle role.

Because appearance has always been Wang Shasha's flaw, and she was once said to be "the ugliest child star".

After "Wulin Biography", she also disappeared for a long time. In 2008, she played the role of an idiot in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", which made many people who had almost forgotten her remember her again. Immediately afterwards, she starred as Ai Hu in the two TV series "Bao Qingtian: Seven Heroes and Five Righteousness" and "Bao Qingtian: Blue Blood Danqing". Never see her on screen again.

Like You Haoran, Wang Shasha was rejected in the Beijing Film Academy. Seeing that Gu Li Nazha and Zhou Dongyu were admitted in the same batch, she could only reluctantly enter the Shanghai Theater Academy after several twists and turns. In 2011, Shasha Wang was admitted to the Acting Department of Shanghai Theater Academy and graduated with a master's degree.

Later, Wang Shasha came into the public eye again, that is, the hit drama "Mountain and Sea Love", as a post-90s actor, she played the mother of a child in the drama.

You Haoran

In "Family with Children", the three Xia family siblings have distinct personalities, and the youngest child "Xia Yu" is cute and cute, played by You Haoran.

Xia family three siblings

You Haoran was born in Beijing on October 17, 1996. He studied at Beijing Film Academy and is an alumnus of Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan. But You Haoran took the exam three times and did not pass the exam until 2019.

Because he was very cute when he was young, You Haoran started to shoot commercials when he was 3 and a half years old. He took part in the well-known public service advertisement "Actually, parents are the best teachers for children". The phrase "Mom, wash your feet" made everyone cute people.

Compared with Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan, You Haoran's "child star transformation" road is even more difficult. First, he became fat and changed after he grew up. Second, he failed the Nortel exam twice. The entertainment industry is realistic, and he will not miss old love. The waves behind beat the waves ahead.

After filming "Family with Children 4" in 2007, You Haoran's film appointments became less and less, and he only made a film every two or three years, almost "disappearing". After being admitted to Nortel, You Haoran succeeded in losing weight, and only starred in "We Are So Lovely" in 2020, which is quite conspicuous.

Mark

Many people didn't realize that Sha Qianmo, who played the coquettish "killer sister" in "A Thousand Bone of Flowers", was the "wild boy" Ma Ke who pretended to be Xia Xue's boyfriend back then.

wild boy

Ma Ke was born in Shangqiu, Henan Province on February 9, 1990. He graduated from the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama in 2008. He was in the same class as Lan Yingying and Gao Weiguang.

Marco debuted at the age of 9 with the role of "Young Puyi" in the historical drama "Sun Yat-sen", with deep eye sockets and a handsome appearance. In addition to "Family with Children", Ma Ke and Yang Zi also partnered in "Boys' Diary", "Boys and Girls" and "Three Classes and Five Classes". They were one of the most famous child stars at that time.

As an adult, he gained a firm foothold in the hearts of the audience with "A Thousand Bone Flowers". However, after Ma Ke's role in "Killing Sister" became popular, the quality of his works was a bit tragic. For example, "Aurora Love" scored only 2.3 points on Douban; and the historical drama "Thinking of Beauty" scored only 3.2 points on Douban. So much so that after "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", Marco never had a decent masterpiece.

Stills of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers"

But fortunately, he is already married and a father. In 2019, he married actor Wang Danni who is 4 years older. On April 19, it was officially announced that he had a son, nicknamed "Little Pineapple". The couple once co-starred in "Sweet New Career". For Marco now, his life has entered a new stage.

Sheng Guansen

"Keyboard" and "mouse" are two good buddies of Liu Xing. "Keyboard" is a computer expert. Together with "Mouse", he dressed up as a "masked man" and helped Liu Xing perform "The Hero Saves the Beauty".

Mouse and keyboard

"Keyboard" actor Sheng Guansen was born in Beijing on July 4, 1993. In "Family with Children", he can be regarded as a handsome guy. After growing up, he also worked hard on the road of professional actors, and his appearance has always been online .

Sheng Guansen is also very capable of creating characters. He played the special soldier Qiao Er in the military drama "Snowy Eagle", the prince clam in "Legend of the Shark Pearl", and played the rich second generation Jin Doudou in "Chinese Style Relationship". For many audiences, Sheng Guansen's most impressive role is the "Old Foreigner" who plays the partridge whistle in Pan Yueming's version of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Wrath of Xiangxi". Sheng Guansen is versatile and good at music, dancing, parkour, etc. He can be called the "all-rounder" among male actors born in the 90s.

But he is also an early-marriage type. He obtained the certificate in 2016 and held a wedding in 2018. He also hired "mouse" Zhang Yiwen to preside over the wedding.

"Mouse" and "keyboard" really want to be good buddies for a lifetime!

Zhang Yiwen

The "mouse" who once ran away from home and lived in Liu Xing's house was played by Zhang Yiwen. In "Family with Children", "Mouse"'s family is not perfect. There is a father who is grumpy and unreasonable, and a mother who likes to agree with her husband and listen to her husband. Every time "Mouse" appears, Liu Xing It's nothing good, but "Mouse" and Liu Xing, the buddies, were the definition of good buddies in those years - righteous and thick-skinned.

"Family with Children" Liu Xing and Mouse played in "Zeng Boy".

Zhang Yiwen was born in Beijing on May 27, 1994. He has a talent for acting since he was a child, and was discovered by Zhang Yimou to shoot commercials when he was 5 years old. He also filmed "Fantasy Garden" directed by Wang Xiaoshuai.

Zhang Yiwen has been learning saxophone for 7 years since he was 13 years old. Even if you don't become an actor, you will be engaged in a career related to art.

In 2012, he was admitted to the Beijing Film Academy as he wished, and became the apprentice of Zhang Yishan and Yang Zi. After graduating, Zhang Yiwen has been playing supporting roles. Although there are two works with good reputation, they have always been tepid. It was not until he played Fu Sinian in "The Awakening Age" that people finally saw his growth.

Stills of "The Awakening Age"

Now Zhang Yiwen has grown up, but the photos in these forums are still 20 years ago, so Zhang Yiwen "can't bear it" posted a help post in the forum-"How can I let everyone know that I have grown up? The thing is like this ...This problem has troubled me for a long time... A person who is nearly 30 years old can't always use a photo of a 10-year-old as his profile picture."

Niu Junfeng

In "Family with Children 4", Niu Junfeng plays Liu Xing's good buddy "Qian Zhuangzhuang", who is the "source" of the conflict between Liu Xing and the three brothers "mouse" and "keyboard".

Stills of "Family with Children"

Niu Junfeng, who plays Qian Zhuangzhuang, was born in Beijing on December 1, 1992. He graduated from the Chinese Academy of Traditional Chinese Opera. He has studied Peking Opera for ten years. Many people know Niu Junfeng through the first season of "Actors Please Take Your Place". He defeated Wang Sen and won the annual championship.

In "Actors Please Take Your Place", Niu Junfeng won the best actor of the year.

Niu Junfeng was also born as a child star. In 2002, he made his debut in "A Family Has a Car" when he was 10 years old. He played young Yang Jian in "The Prequel of the Lotus Lantern", played Xiao Man (played as Yang Zi's younger brother) in "Battle of Changsha", played Yu Wang Yuansong in "The Legend of Chu Qiao", and played Yu Gong in "A Slight Smile Is Alluring". Brother, starred in Zhao Zhiyong in "Secret and Great".

Niu Junfeng is the second male lead in many TV dramas. Many people admit that he is a good actor with strength, and his performance in "Secret and Great" is even as good as the male lead. It's just that he was still very dissatisfied with himself, and later he went to compete in the variety show "Actors Please Take Your Place" and asked why he couldn't play the leading actor.

Niu Junfeng also played the role of a boy with cerebral palsy in "La Hua in Summer" before. Based on such experience and Director Chen Kaige's reworking of the script, in "Actors Please Take Your Place", he performed the autistic teenager in "Ocean Paradise" in a state between consciousness and unconsciousness.

"This is a performance that cannot be completed without a sense of faith." The judges commented.

For Niu Junfeng, the road to acting is still very long. He described: "There are many very good actors, they are blooming, they are blooming, although you have not seen him blooming, but he is still blooming alone, just like agarwood , the older the better the taste."
