Main works

Character evaluation

It's said that the old counselor is the master who knows how to dig out people, isn't it? Zhang Ziyi is in Hollywood now. There is a Time Warner major shareholder's boyfriend who often goes out of the place where people live without money. He looks like an oriental "upper class beauty". According to the secret informant, Wei Minzhi, the most rustic girl in those years, who was in the movie "one can't be less", had mixed up in the United States!

How can Wei Minzhi go to America.

Wei Minzhi, who had been appraised by Zhang Yimou as "not beautiful and not in good shape" after performing "no one can be less" by Lao Mou, had to step back and go to the director department of Beijing Film Academy. As a result, Wei Minzhi of a village in Chicheng County, Zhangjiakou City was eliminated in the interview. Finally, he was admitted by a film and Television Media College in Xi'an and became a student of director department.

Later, an American doctor (Chen Ergang in Chinese) wanted to help Wei go to the United States to study, and he came to China to meet Wei Minzhi himself. For studying abroad, Wei Minzhi's reason was: To study directing (really persistent), and to film the lives of poor children after returning home. After two years of preparation, Wei Minzhi was admitted to the media and television major of Brigham Young University in Hawaii. What's more, Xiao Wei won a full scholarship! (you know, Zhang Ziyi, her elder martial sister, was teased for her poor English for quite a long time, especially the most classic one who only said it, like, thank you at an International Film Festival.).

Media interview

Wei Minzhi: without Zhang Yimou, she might raise pigs at home

Wei Minzhi, a "girl in charge" came back from studying in the United States and appeared in Shijiazhuang. At that time, she became famous for making Zhang Yimou's film "no one can be less". The purpose of this return is to film the documentary "miracle daughter" and tell the story of her growth. Shijiazhuang is the first stop of her trip. Wei Minzhi finished her studies in elite middle school at that time.

"The title of the documentary we are going back to China to make this time is" daughter of the miracle ", which will be broadcast on Salt Lake City TV station, Hebei TV station and other TV stations next winter. I'm a production assistant and an actor in this film Wei Minzhi said that when she made this film, she was nostalgic, grateful and enlightening to more friends: as long as she was willing to work hard, miracles would happen in her life.

Later, in an interview with reporters, Wei Minzhi said: "I'm really lucky to be able to film with Uncle Zhang Yimou. The experience of shooting "no less than one" changed my life. Only in this way can I have the opportunity to go to university and go abroad for further study If I didn't have this movie, I would raise pigs at home, get married, have children and be a housewife. "

In the face of the question "Wei Minzhi is good at soil, and she is the most rustic scheming girl", Wei Minzhi said: "in fact, this is the evaluation of others. Everyone has the right to evaluate anything. I think it doesn't matter. I just want to be myself

Personal experience

acting

Two episodes of the short play "fairy tales of the night" have attracted much attention because of the participation of Wei Minzhi. After her role in no one can be less, Wei Minzhi, who has stepped out of the "aura of Zhang Yimou", gradually faded out of people's vision. She finished middle school in Shijiazhuang elite middle school and was admitted to the editorial department of Xi'an Institute of foreign languages in 2004.

In the face of a large group of reporters, Wei Minzhi was very generous and depicted a blueprint for her future as a director. When the reporter talked with her alone, Wei Minzhi's mature manners still couldn't cover up the unique simplicity of girls of this age. She sighed softly and said, "being a director is really just my idea. I'm not even sure if I really like this business. Maybe I'll get married early after graduation."

Wei Minzhi in front of people is very decent in speech and behavior, but it also makes people feel that she doesn't match her age. The reporter asked her if she has this feeling. Wei Minzhi said: "in fact, what I show is not the real me. My most comfortable time is when I am with my classmates. I also asked my classmates what they think of me, and they said:" you are a child! " Director Zhang Yuzhong commented that she was a very down-to-earth and filial child. Wei Minzhi nodded gently: "I admit that. Now I hope my family can live a better life. What I care about most is them."

college entrance examination

Wei Minzhi became famous overnight because of the movie "no one can be less". Many art schools, including several schools in Beijing, wrote that they would like to enroll Wei Minzhi to school. Many people are concerned about Wei Minzhi: what's the next choice?

Wei Minzhi, in the midst of cheers, is at a loss about the future. It was Zhang Yimou who "should continue to study" that made Wei Minzhi, who was only 14 years old, choose to go to the elite middle school in Shijiazhuang, the provincial capital, to start a new study.

When he first transferred to elite middle school, Wei Minzhi inevitably did not adapt. Before that, she had been living in rural areas and spoke dialect. When she arrived in Shijiazhuang, her classmates had to communicate in Putonghua. Wei Minzhi made jokes about this. Once when a teacher asked a question in a math class, Wei Minzhi raised her hand very actively and asked for an answer, so the teacher called her up. I didn't expect that her Mandarin with dialect could not speak the answer clearly, which made everyone laugh. Since then, she has stepped up her practice of Putonghua. In this brand-new environment, Wei Minzhi put all his mind on learning, and later successfully admitted to elite high school.

In the twinkling of an eye, entered the senior three preparation stage. Wei Minzhi, 19, told her teacher the goal of the college entrance examination: she wants to be a director. She thinks that the top universities in China are Beijing Film Academy and Central Academy of drama. She wants to go to Beijing Film Academy for a try. Wei Minzhi's choice has a lot to do with her first contact with the film when she was 13 years old. The film shooting in a few months had a subtle influence on her. Because she didn't think she was beautiful enough, she thought she was more suitable to apply for the Directing Department than the acting department. But her decision was opposed by her family and teachers.

My father said to Wei Minzhi: you'd better not dream of being a director. Go to a normal school and teach like your sister in the future. Wei Minzhi begged: Dad, let me have a try! Finally, dad was told: OK, you can spend a few money. My sister has always felt that Wei Minzhi is not suitable to apply for the art college. She thinks that she is honest, dull and can't perform. That's what teachers and students think. We all think that: Although Wei Minzhi has achieved success in no one can be less, it is because she is very natural and she has no talent in acting.

Wei Minzhi still obstinately decided: to try it according to his own ideas.

In February 2004, Wei Minzhi, together with other students who dream of being a director or a star, attended the first interview of art major course of Beijing Film Academy. There are more than 800 candidates for the director major, and dozens of them will be admitted in the end. What makes Wei Minzhi happy is that there is not much professional knowledge in the first exam, so she passed it smoothly. But apart from starring in the film "no one can be less" when she was 13 years old, Wei Minzhi did not have much film knowledge. She was not sure whether she could pass the difficult art re examination. The director of Beijing Film Academy said: do you know what the term is The other side said: let me help you tutor for a while. So he lent Wei Minzhi some books about the basic knowledge of film, and Wei Minzhi began to study.

Two days later, Wei Minzhi went to the retest. Let Wei Minzhi regret is: three try the list does not have her name. She did not expect that this attempt, caused a lot of media attention, some reporters have interviewed her. Wei Minzhi, who lost the list, ran out of the gate of Beijing Film Academy without saying anything to the reporters who came to interview him. An hour later, she and her sister set foot on the train back to Shijiazhuang.

What happened next was even more unexpected.

After returning to school, Wei Minzhi saw a lot of reports and pictures about himself on the Internet, and felt that he was applying for the film
