Personal experience

The elegant and gentle Zhang Yan is hard to connect with the singer on the stage, who is hoarse and full of long hair. Before becoming an actor, Zhang Yan's favorite was rock music.

In the early 1990s, at the age of 16 or 17, Zhang Yan was crazy about rock and roll. He formed a band with a group of little brothers. He was both the creator and the lead singer. A group of young men with shawls and long hair shuttled through bars, singing halls and other informal performances. 1994 was an important turning point in Zhang Yan's life. After graduating from high school that year, he received the admission letters from the Central Academy of drama and the Hong Kong Wireless artists training class. And just at this time, the soldier drama troupe of Guangzhou Military Region came to recruit students and selected him.

At that time, it was the beginning of the popularity of pop music in China. At that time, Guangzhou was the holy land of the national pop music world. Aiming at this, Zhang Yan decided to go to Guangzhou!

It wasn't until he went to Guangzhou, cut off his long hair, put on his military uniform and became a literary and art soldier that Zhang Yan found out that the opera company and the song and dance company were two different things. What he wanted to learn and engage in was stage plays and sketches, not singing and music. But it's too late to regret. When he comes, he'll settle down, and he'll put himself into a new living environment. A photo of Zhang Yan

Zhang Yan was very lucky. In the army, he met the best guide in his acting career, Mr. Lu Jilan. Mr. Lu, who graduated from Chinese opera in his early years, is not only skillful in acting, but also docile. Under the guidance of the teacher, Zhang Yan made an indissoluble bond with the performance step by step. While rehearsing and participating in some stage plays and skits, Zhang Yan came into contact with the performance of film and TV plays by chance.

Zhang Yan's first work is a TV play called a generation of heroes. The role is close to his appearance and temperament. He interprets the role very well. Since then, Zhang Yan has taken over more than ten films and TV plays.

After more than ten years of performing experience, Zhang Yan realized that the job of performing is not only hard-working, but also heartbreaking. In addition to the lighting, sound, lines, action and performance of every detail of the design, speculation, but also to accept such as distrust, coldness and even white eyes and other things that people can not accept. But over the years, Zhang Yan has come step by step. He said that he is not from a professional background. Theoretically, he can't compare with those who come from China Opera, Shanghai Opera and Nortel. However, his experience is rich and colorful. This is more important than anything, because acting is about people and life. Without life experience, it is difficult to control the role.

Zhang Yan came to Beijing for development in 2000. After several years of hard work, he took on many influential films and TV plays.
