Zhao Han Tang

essential information

Early experience

Zhao Yi (now renamed Zhao Hantang) grew up on the Jialing River. He has the rough appearance and forthright personality of northerners. At the same time, he also has the delicate and spiritual characteristics of Sichuan people. Zhao Yi's first feeling in his life is tough and cold, but after a conversation, he found that he was actually very easygoing and friendly.

When it comes to childhood and youth, Zhao Yi is obviously trapped in memories. As a child, he lived with his parents in a "three line" enterprise. He studied and lived step by step. He remembered that his favorite subject at that time was history. He also remembered that the railway across from his family District extended to a distant place. He firmly believed that one day this railway would take him to where he wanted to go. Before going to university, Zhao Yi had been living under the guidance of his parents. With height advantage, he was admitted to a normal university in Sichuan to study physical education. Zhao Yi couldn't continue his seemingly peaceful life. When he was a sophomore, he decided to drop out. Because he knew that the seemingly stable life would surely wipe out all his passion and talent. If you don't have your own persistence and go north to Beijing alone to seek your dreams, maybe the audience won't see Zhao Yi, who is now active on the TV screen and impresses the audience with his "often acting as a villain, cold but not losing his personality".

Zhao Yi, who arrived in Beijing for the first time, had a hard time, suffering from the training of "starving his body and skin, exhausting his muscles and bones". In 1994, he entered the performance training class of the Central Academy of drama. In order to go to school, he opened a few small stores specializing in rock and roll clothing, and lived a life of working while going to school. Looking back on the hardships of that time, Zhao Yi's face was full of determination and satisfaction. He said that at that time, my heart was always full of hope, very hard but very happy. Because this is the first step he has taken on the road of his life, full of passion.

Acting experience

After graduating from the performance training class, director Zhang Yimou saw Zhao Yi with long hair playing a French film "Lumiere", which commemorates the birth of the film for one hundred years. This is the first time in his life that he has been formally "electrocuted". In the eyes of outsiders, how lucky he is. Even Zhao Yi himself thinks that this starting point is of great significance to him. Although he is not a professional, he is more confident than ever.

Zhao Yi's yearning life began with his first TV play. Since then, Zhao Yi's acting life has begun. In just a few years, Zhao Yi has created many film and television characters with different types and distinct personalities: Zhang Liao, a rebellious but chivalrous character of the Three Kingdoms in Lv Bu and Diao Chan; Leng Yifu, a martial arts expert in Changfeng escort agency; and the most striking thing is for love in Daming Palace CI Xue Huaiyi, who is burning Wanxiang palace, Du Haitao, the team leader in ambition, Zhao Yi as Ma Feng in bodyguard alone, dorkin, who is lovely and persistent in Kangding Love song, Bao Qingtian, who is humanized in the strange case of the great Song Dynasty - civet cat for prince, and Yu wenhuaji, who is in the historical drama to create a prosperous age, Zhao Yi's performance is more and more wonderful and more calm, Not only has it been recognized by the people in the circle, but more importantly, it has a state of life that belongs to one's own desire.

Looking back at every play played by Zhao Yi, it is not difficult to find that his costume plays and villains account for more than 80%. When asked why he plays so many ancient costume dramas and villains, Zhao Yi said bluntly: he has no special preference for both positive and villains in ancient costume and fashion dramas, and he will try his best to seize the opportunity. All the time, Zhao Yi, who insists on it, has always adjusted his passion to the highest level and his personal attitude to the lowest level. Zhao Yi, a low-key actor, has been engaged in filming all the time. In the early years, at the busiest time, he even crossed three troupes in a hurry. It is because of such a full training and solid foundation that they gradually come to the fore. They have won precious opportunities to cooperate with domestic well-known directors, and they have been praised by all directors.

As he grew up, Zhao Yi gradually realized that he had got the life he wanted, but not the life he wanted. This is because he has been in the same industry for a long time, so he has no way to look down on his life, and has some embarrassment of "only living in the mountains". Nevertheless, he has always adhered to his ideal and lifestyle. Zhao Yi has long, natural and clean hair in his life. He loves history, reading celebrity biographies, and caring about politics and military affairs. In his spare time, he likes to travel by car and take photos. He says he wants to make every day of his life wonderful. In the lively performing arts circle, it's rare to have such persistence.

When it comes to dreams, Zhao Yi said something intriguing: "it's a kind of happiness for young people in the 19th century to write a book and live forever; it's also a kind of happiness for young people today to have a film that has been handed down for generations." It goes without saying that Zhao Yi has always cherished the wish of coming to Beijing for more than ten years. Seeing his sincere expression, the reporter's respect also arises spontaneously. Although from the first step he chose to move towards his dream, he was doomed to go through both wind and rain, but he always insisted, insisted and cherished his dream at the same time.
