After watching a lot of Hong Kong dramas, there are always audiences who are obsessed with the outstanding actors in the dramas, including soup powder. Some of them are bullies, some are secretaries, some can control various roles, and there are not too many restrictions on the interpretation of roles.
In the eyes of soup powder, there is also an old TVB player who makes soup powder "unforgettable".
This is Xie Xuexin.
In the eyes of many audiences, Xie Xuexin is a cross-border senior performing artist, spanning sports, Cantonese opera, film and television and drama, and an outstanding Hua Dan. Her gestures always inadvertently exude an elegant demeanor, and Xie Xuexin's lines are even more admirable.
This powerful old actor created many classic roles when filming on TVB. Her performance in the play told all the audience that "even a supporting role can be very promising."
TVB's old drama Xie Xuexin: From "grandma" to loving mother, her acting skills impressed the audience.
TVB once broadcast the classic drama "Rose Business", and I believe many fans watching Hong Kong dramas are no strangers. This TV series starring Deng Cuiwen and Li Yaoxiang is based on a series of stories about the chef Kang Baoqi and Chai Jiu, a nobody in the vegetable market.
The play takes rice merchants as the theme, and tells the story that after the death of rice merchants in Qing Dynasty, the burden of the family was given to the fourth aunt Taikang Baoqi, which triggered intrigue among the first, second and third aunts.
In this play, besides starring Deng Cuiwen and Li Yaoxiang, there are also actors such as Elliot Ngok, Xie Xuexin, Shang Tiane and Kara Wai.
But Shang Fen was more impressed by Xie Xuexin's "grandmother" of Millie Jane.
Before talking about Xie Xuexin, Shang Fen had to mention the wonderful portrayal of the role by the production team of The Rose Business. Yin Fengyi, the great aunt in the play, is called "Great Grandma". On the surface, it looks decent, but in fact it is a needle in cotton, and there are too many conspiracies behind it.
As early as the beginning of the play, Yin Fengyi learned that her husband's old lover Kang Baoqi had married her husband as a concubine and became a fourth aunt. She later believed that this woman was destined to take away the family business belonging to her son Jiang Biwen.
However, Yin Fengyi kept a straight face. On the surface, she didn't refute the marriage. Simple understatement made my second aunt work for her without knowing it. My second aunt's thoughts and actions are very similar to "counting money for others after being sold"
So what about Xie Xuexin's performance?
In the early stage of the play, Xie Xuexin smiled at her husband's marriage, which made the audience feel that this "great-grandmother" looked very kind. However, when the camera simply passes by, the sly eyes are exposed to the audience.
Everyone knows that this great-grandmother Yin Fengyi is a "traitor".
Let's take a look at the later part of the series. Liu Fang, the third aunt, found out that she had actually dealt with her son. The third aunt, who looked as timid as a mouse, became angry and slapped her face to face. Even if the aunt with a confused face is frightened, she still has to keep calm and keep everyone's demeanor. This story is wonderful.
Yin Fengyi, who became angry from embarrassment and fanned the flames, forcibly controlled her emotions and quarreled with her third aunt. The chopsticks in her hand kept holding food, but she couldn't find it. Xie Xuexin put away this period of fear and panic, but he didn't want to show these details in front of people. He handled it well and successfully performed Yin Fengyi.
The role of Yin Fengyi has become a classic, from panic to dullness, and then to the appearance of turning over the table in a rage. But the play is not over yet. Xie Xuexin's performance in the finale was enough for TVB to give her a "Best Performance Award".
In the finale of Rose Business, Yin Fengyi and Jiang Biwen were defeated, and Jiang Biwen was instigated to set fire, but finally got a box lunch. Yin Fengyi, whose son was killed in the fire, had disheveled hair and a white and bloodless face, and had already lost the appearance of a good family.
In Jiang Jiatang, Yin Fengyi slammed Kang Baoqi. From complaining and sighing to crying, a series of lines make people sad. Even the last fall down the stairs was a never-ending expression, which made the audience feel hateful and sad.
There is no doubt that Xie Xuexin really played Yin Fengyi, the "great grandmother" for most of her life, which made the audience feel too real.
Xie Xuexin plays the role of "good-hearted man", but Yin Fengyi is not the only one. In the classic TV series "Gong Xin Ji", she also played a "fearless and powerful" Queen Mother Guo.
Ji's "beautiful scenery" and "brilliance" let the audience see different wonderful pictures. An actress should not only wear ancient costumes, but also make flowers on her forehead. Actors like Xie Xuexin and Han Mali belong to the queen mother and toffee class in the play. They wear more gorgeous headdresses to show their noble roles.
Some netizens joked that Xie Xuexin in gorgeous clothes looks like the Queen Mother, but the hair ornaments on her head are more like a number "6". But in Shang Fen's eyes, the so-called number "6" is a powerful blessing for Xie Xuexin's acting in TV series.
The background of Gong Xinji is the Tang Dynasty, so the actors' clothes have a golden feeling. Xie Xuexin plays the domineering Queen Mother in the play. Her resplendent costumes and senior acting skills make this role very dazzling.
Because she is in power, Empress Dowager Tai is very confident. She can play with her former concubines in the palm of her hand, which is also a lot of requirements for the work bureau. If she doesn't serve the crowd carefully, she will easily face the problem of getting a box lunch.
Xie Xuexin's confidence in Empress Dowager Tai in the early stage is in sharp contrast with the disheveled empress dowager in the later stage, but Xie Xuexin's lines are the most admired by Shang Fen.
Fans who have seen the series Gong Xinji find that the lines in this series are very awkward. In Gong Xinji 2 Deep Palace, almost one actor's lines contain many idioms, and the whole paragraph needs to be memorized, not to mention the diversity of expression details.
Even Xie Xuexin, whose lines are good enough, sometimes has a remake, but in the tidbits, the audience can see that when the director calls for action, Xie Xuexin's performance "quickly changes face", from "not serious" to entering the play for one second. Such an actor really gives acting power.
It is reported that many of Xie Xuexin's plays are basically "one-stop" without too many shots. How can such an old-fashioned play not convince the audience?
In addition to the role of "calculating", Xie Xuexin has a broad career path. In the supernatural drama The Fairy, the role of Xie Xuexin is in sharp contrast with Rose Red and Ji.
In monster hunt, Xie Xuexin plays Liang Jingjing, the foster mother of the hero Ma Ji. For fear that her life will "bind" her adopted son, she has not shown much affection for her adopted son for many years.
The later development of the plot finally resolved the estrangement between "mother and son" who seemed to have a bad relationship. Many times of crying also touched netizens, and Xie Xuexin also showed the feeling that "although she is not a mother and son, she has paid more affection than blood relationship".
"Rare" seems to be a mysterious suspense, but in fact it is more of a warm route. Xie Xuexin's scenes in the play are mostly based on crying, and many tears in the play make the audience feel the same. At the same time, Liang Jingjing's role is also a loving mother. Compared with Empress Dowager Tai and Yin Fengyi, Xie Xuexin's performance in Demon is emotional.
From the play "Demon", Shang Fen understands that she can play both "bad woman" and "loving mother" without being restricted by the rose business and scheming women. Xie Xuexin, whose acting skills are so brilliant, is an old play bone that the audience is full of praise.
Xie Xuexin not only appeared in the three plays mentioned in Shangfen, but also performed brilliantly in other plays. But what impressed the audience particularly was the two roles of "grandmother" and "empress dowager".
Although both roles are "calculating women", Xie Xuexin's performance and delicate details make the audience deeply convinced of her acting skills.
Xie Xuexin is a cross-border artist. Although many roles in her acting career are not leading roles, she can make people shine in many plays with her brilliant acting skills. She is one of the few "people who have a good show". If she can convince Shang Fen, it must be one of them.
TVB is called "Star-making Factory" because many artists were born in the "artist training class" initiated by TVB. Besides Hua Dan and Xiao Sheng, the artists' training class has also trained many green leaf actors, who have many wonderful performances on TV screens.
Xie Xuexin's soup powder has its own "elegant" temperament, and it also gives people a feeling of comfort and no procrastination. If Xie Xuexin plays a role in any drama, it is "Grandma" in "The Rose Business", plus Xie Xuexin's own sense of elegance, plus the character setting of "a good family", which is really wonderful.
Besides Xie Xuexin, there are many old TVB dramas that are impressive, such as Liu Jiang, Roland and Han Mali, all of whom are powerful actors. After watching their performances in the play, the audience can't help but sigh "superb acting skills".
On the road of acting, everyone is eager to be the leading role, but some people work silently on the road of supporting roles, because wonderful performances become "professional households" in the eyes of the audience. Their performance road has brought different wonderful vision to the audience.
A good play has a leading role and a supporting role. Both the leading role and the supporting role can shine brilliantly on their own performing arts.
