Acting experience
Chen Zhicai's appearance on the screen was purely accidental. At the beginning, when the Singapore Broadcasting and Television Bureau recruited an actor, his relatives and friends saw that he was handsome and talented, so they strongly recommended him to apply for the exam as a pilot. Maybe everyone's sincerity moved Chen Zhicai. Maybe God couldn't bear to see him buried. In a word, among the more than 4000 applicants, Chen Zhicai was very lucky to enter the top 10 and was officially accepted by "Xinguang". "A lot of people come to apply for the dream of being a star, but I've never had such a dream," he said. At that time, I was dealing with machines and the sky every day. I seldom watched TV. In the white clouds, I had a sense of happiness, but in my spare time, I often worked as a model
After entering the entertainment industry, Chen Zhicai was very busy, performing one play after another, sometimes even working 24 hours. "I have a record that I didn't sleep for 8 consecutive days. At that time, I was forced to support myself by my physical strength. Later, I had heart problems and was carried to the hospital for a sling injection." Due to his devotion to the performing arts, his reputation has been rising. Since his debut, he has won the "top ten most popular male artists" award for many times.
Chen Zhicai's first performance in 1986 in the TV series "sunny after rain" immediately brightened the audience's eyes and left a deep impression on the newcomer at that time. Since then, with his superb acting skills and excellent appearance, he has been the hero of dozens of TV dramas and movies. He is good at performing various roles, especially professionals such as doctor, lawyer and president.
He has rich performing experience. He not only has a wide range of acting skills, but also is proficient in bilingualism. He often performs in Chinese and English TV dramas, stage plays and films across Chinese and English markets and media. In 2001, he played an obstetrician and gynaecologist in the English TV series first touch, and his natural acting skills were highly praised by the audience. In terms of film, his first work was the Canadian film heaven and earth, which premiered at the Monterey World Film Festival in 1998. Zhicai has been involved in five films so far. Since 1999, he has also participated in the performance of stage plays.
Because of his excellent eloquence, he is a popular host. Whether it is documentary, magazine or large variety show, he is competent. Because of his healthy and energetic image, he was the anchor of the coverage of the Atlanta Olympic Games by Singapore's main media organization "new media" in 1996.
Besides acting, Zhicai, a versatile singer, has released four albums and often shows his singing and stage charm in large-scale live programs.
This multi-faceted artist, who is proficient in acting, directing, hosting, singing and designing, is rare in the performing arts circle.
In love, Chen Zhicai is also very lucky. In 1990, he married Singapore actress Xiang Yun. When Chen Zhicai joined the entertainment industry, Xiang Yun was already a successful artist. "There was a sense of admiration when I saw Xiang Yun: Wow, that's a big star!" He said. When he first joined Xinguang, Chen Zhicai seldom contacted Xiang Yun, but only saw her on the screen. He said: "I think she is very wise, very simple, is my ideal object. Since then, I have decided to use her as a criterion for choosing a mate. But she was so famous at that time that I didn't dare to go up to her. "
Chen Zhicai and Xiang Yun got to know each other when they were shooting the play "sunny after rain". Then they were invited to perform in Sentosa together. They gradually got in touch with each other. Not long after, when they were shooting "lost night", they often chatted with each other all over the world. Over time, they had feelings. "I appreciate his wealth. I think he has a lot of youth and energy. If he doesn't become an actor, he can go out and make a career." Xiang Yun said.
