Yi Yi was born in 1976 in Beijing's wunianhua primary school. He sang with his parents in the Hutong opera school. But Yin was an old student. At the time of filming farewell my concubine, Yin Zhicai was only 16 years old. At that time, he was still studying opera in Beijing opera school. Because he looked similar to Zhang Guorong, he was caught by Chen Kaige. Yin Zhi and the actors in Farewell My Concubine are classmates. They lived in Beijing Film Studio for four months, saving cigarettes, watching movies and drinking beer secretly "It was a real day!" At that time, he only knew Zhang Fengyi and didn't know Gong Li and Zhang Guorong at all.

Born in a Beijing Opera family, Yin Zhi's parents were very opposed to him becoming an actor. "I went from Beijing opera to this and struggled in my heart for a while.

Basically, after struggling for a while, I still stick to my idea. "

In 1996, Yin Zhi once conceived of becoming a monk and went to Wutai Mountain to experience life. As a result, his family strongly opposed him and failed to achieve his wish. After that, he took part in the college entrance examination and entered the director major of China Academy of traditional Chinese opera. In the sophomore's observation class, Yin Zhi understood his performance farewell my concubine for the first time in the hot eyes of his classmates.

After becoming an actor, Yin Zhi and director Chen Jialin cooperated in the TV series "a hundred years of empty clouds". Yin Zhi plays Xu Yun, a Buddhist monk, from the age of 17 to the age of 50. "It's a great blessing in life to play such a character. There is a purification process for my spirit. This character challenges me a lot, because he has the span of time, age and psychology.
