All of a sudden, I want to write about Tan Jianji again and again, about how he repeatedly broke the cognition of idols and traffic and became a powerful actor with national strength.
Why do you say that? Because some actors can make the audience forget any label. Tan Jianji did it from “Begonia Red on the Temples” and “Sauvignon Blanc” to “Deafening.

In fact, idol-born actors want to go to a broader track, almost every step is accompanied by doubt, you are relying on your face to eat,
Can’t hold up a long shot, just traffic, not a real actor. But Tan Jianji took the third path, not deliberately getting rid of his idol background, nor sticking to his comfort zone,
Instead, they rely on the characters who have landed one by one to walk the long road from traffic to actors.

This road is not easy. The biggest difficulty lies in how to make a face that is used to exquisite lighting and perfect lens angle into a rough and realistic scene. Tan Jianji looks too delicate,
If you have a slight deviation, playing roles will be like shooting fashion photos.
And his solution is to recover.
In Deafening, he plays Li Qi, a lawyer struggling from the bottom. The scene of eating noodles at the small and medium-sized shop in the lane,
There is no slow motion to beautify the side face, he just eats noodles with his head buried in his mouth, eating at random and extensive, with a wild air in the market.
A bowl of noodles, completely remove the idol filter, delicate appearance is diluted, transformed into a strong plasticity.

What tests the skill even more is to set up suspended idol drama characters to become movie characters with flesh and blood.
“Sauvignon Blanc” is an underwater opponent with amber eyes as cold as ice, looking at the moment of Xiao Yao,
Cold is not a total refusal, but a long-term self-restraint.
When turning around and leaving, the pace is deliberately slow and half a beat. Only this slight rhythm makes the thin beautiful and miserable person set up a body,
Become an ordinary person with restraint, fear and reluctance.

Two kinds of works, two sets of narrative language, he free shuttle.
The root is that his acting does not start from the type of subject matter, but based on the characters themselves. every role,
For him, it is an independent life worth pondering.

This ability is inseparable from his past experience. I ‘ve heard a lot of cold eyes when I ‘ve changed from a male troupe to a big male actor,
After taking over many unpopular scripts, one play at a time is slowly polished. Those dormant years did not turn into complaints, but precipitated into a solid and heavy texture on him.
The audience will have a sense of trust. No matter what script he gets, he will not perfunctory and settle down to create a complete character. This stable sense of security is the best gift an actor can give to the audience.

So the idol is never his shackles, just the starting point.
This face can not only stand in the ancient costume snow and become white moonlight, but also squat in the street shop, living like ordinary people in fireworks.
So I’m not eager to see what his next work will be. He runs a long-distance race, which does not have to worry about the speed of a single lap, but only depends on whether the pace stops. He never stopped when no one was interested,
Now nature will not stop.
He continued to move forward, and we watched quietly, and that was enough.
