Guo Qilin： Be serious with those who scold you, this is what you shouldn’t be

1905 movie network feature As one of the main creators of the new film during the Spring Festival, Guo Qilin had a conversation with "UP! New Power" not long ago. According to the most popular character standards some time ago, Guo Qilin can definitely be regarded as "Buddhist post-90s generation". Well, probably the qualifier "eloquent version" needs to be added in front of it.

In order to keep up with the rhythm of throwing and picking up stems calculated by the second on the spot by "Teacher Guo", we always maintained a 120,000-point focus during the process. At the end of an exclusive interview, people can’t help but want to sigh – it’s not easy to laugh.

We also talked a lot about the topic of being poor and teasing with Teacher Xiao Guo. Don’t look at Guo Qilin, who has just passed his 22nd birthday and has already entered the industry early, but his mentality is far more mature than most of his peers. After listening to his thoughts, we were impressed by this teenager who only shows a laughing and scolding side on the stage most of the time.

"Others think you are cute, that’s because you look at your father’s face"

I remember this sentence until now

Guo Degang decided to direct the first film of "Nineteen Generations of Ancestors", and as a son, Guo Qilin did not hesitate to choose to support it – although the father and son were somewhat "awkward" when they mentioned this cooperation. One complained that his son was "the hardest to invite", and the other complained that "I wanted to support it in my heart, but I didn’t want to come."

With a father like Teacher Guo Degang, Guo Qilin naturally had more choices and opportunities than many people, but at the same time, he also had to bear more invisible pressure and "constraints". He had been deeply touched by this matter since he was a child.

More than a decade ago, 9-year-old Guo Qilin received a box of chocolates from his father’s friend, which was enough to make a child feel very happy and happy.

"When I got back, I told my mom how nice your son is. Everyone knows I’m cute and gave me chocolate. I remember what my mom said until now. She said, ‘It’s not because you’re cute, it’s because of your dad, it’s because of looking at your dad’s face.’"

From then on, wherever Guo Qilin went and whatever he did, he felt this string in his heart. Including when he officially joined the industry in 2010 and became a member of the "Deyun Club", he felt the "tolerance" that his identity brought him, both on and off the stage.

Regardless of whether it was a senior’s junior uncle, master, or the junior brother or junior brother of the same generation, it was not because of his ability to call himself "Young Class Master".

"For the first four years, it was basically like this. From 2010 to 2014, [I] had to drop the chain on important occasions. My dad was always willing to let me show it, but every time I had a stage accident, I was sure to have a stage accident. Then I directly stated that I would not go, and I would not lose this person."

Guo Qilin talked about himself without mercy.

"It was a world of difference between when I first started the crosstalk and now. Now I feel that those audiences could accept me at that time, [allowing] a little kid to talk nonsense on stage, it was very patient, put me under the seat and I will definitely leave."

The audience’s expectation of Guo Degang’s son, the young class leader of the "Deyun Club", made Guo Qilin unable to bear it when he was a child: "The atmosphere of the audience’s deathly silence is unbearable for ordinary people. The other actors let the audience go at this moment, and the audience didn’t have the patience, but when it came to my audience, I thought, forget it, give his father face, and wait for him to finish. But this is like stewing a knife to kill people, and I can’t wait for them to blast me down. 25 minutes on stage was the hardest thing I experienced when I was a child."

Whether it was relying on the big family of "Deyun Society" or going out of this environment to break into the film and television industry, Guo Qilin had already accepted the influence his father brought him. He smiled and said that this was "an advantage" and "taking advantage of Teacher Guo". When I grow up, I must get rid of the halo of my parents and let everyone recognize me…

Guo Qilin has never had such a "childish" rebellious mentality, but he is also very confident: "This kind of thing can only affect other people’s first impression of you, but the next contact and cooperation, if others find that you are annoying and annoying, then no matter who your father is, they will not give you face because of your father, right?"

"Make your own decisions

Be serious with those who scold you, this is what you shouldn’t be. "

Although according to Guo Qilin’s classification criteria, crosstalk performances and theatrical performances are in the same line, there is no "transformation and crossover" between each other: "You have to say that I used to do film promotion, but now it may be a big leap [transformation] to be a film and television actor. In fact, quyi and theater are basically performances. I just put myself in front of this camera from the stage, and there is no difference."

But there are still changes. Out of the territory of "Deyun Club", the young class leader with 8 years of stage experience has become a fledgling young actor. In addition to the comedy works with his father, Guo Qilin is also constantly expanding his role range. Being a quyi actor has helped him a lot, but in many cases it has also forced him to face the troubles caused by some stereotypes.

For a long time, the scripts given to Guo Qilin were all comedic roles without exception. "I think first of all I am a young actor, which is very important to me. I feel that I can play more youth plays."

Teacher Xiao Guo emphasized the words young actors very seriously, "Youth doesn’t refer to any idol drama, overbearing president, how did I fly a plane to pick up my dream Muse, I may not be able to play this. I just like some realistic themes. The stories that happen around me may be very mundane, but they really happened. I think I can act these things, right?"

Guo Qilin bluntly said that he did not want to continue to imprison himself too much in the category of "comedy": "The so-called comedy, it does not have a definition of age, no matter how old comedians are, there are more than 30, more than 40, and more than 70. I don’t think there is a shortage of me in these more than 20 (laughs), so it is not difficult to say whether to act or not."

But if he could come across a script that he liked, he would never reject a good work because of it, but now in the market, the number of farce is far more than comedy. "Now it’s mostly farce, with a few so-called comedians, variety variety cafes, lively filming of some donkey’s lips are not right (story), and the last piece comes out to thank everyone. The hilarious singing and dancing will be over, and that’s it."

At present, Guo Qilin has begun to receive more and more different roles, such as in the drama "Qingyu Nian", he will play a main role.

As for whether he has the confidence to accept the audience’s evaluation, he said that in the years of cross talk, he has developed a strong heart in the face of "bad reviews" with Teacher Guo. "My father has always been more open-minded, and he can’t watch it. In recent years, when it comes to cross talk, many of the peers, fans, and many of them have been’quite critical ‘of Teacher Guo, and he has long been mentally unable to bear it."

At first, when he encountered some heated "comments", Guo Qilin, as a young man, was still a little unable to calm down. Later, his father was more open-minded, and he got used to it. "Maybe people are like this, there are thousands of people who support you, and one of them says you are not good. You immediately feel awkward, ‘How can he say that I am not good?’, ‘How can he have a different opinion from others?’ In fact, it is completely unnecessary."

Teacher Xiao Guo took out a very Buddhist state, "What he says is his business, and we can’t control what he says, so what does it have to do with us? You have to listen to him, that’s your fault, right? Aren’t we the masters of ourselves? I will stick to my heart, and do what I think, regardless of the future outcome."
