In the original "Swordsman", Ye Tong's younger sister Yue Lingshan was very well received. Although Ye Tong's appearance can't be compared with Li Jiaxin who played Yue Lingshan in the second part, her acting skills are much better than Li Jiaxin's. Although Li Jiaxin is known as "the number one beauty in Xiangjiang", because of her European-style appearance, her ancient costumes are far less beautiful than modern ones, just like in "A Chinese Ghost Story" where Li Jiaxin was overwhelmed by Wang Zuxian, in the second part "Oriental" In "Invincible", Li Jiaxin was also defeated by the 40-year-old Lin Qingxia. In the first movie, there are many plots where Yue Lingshan disguised herself as a man and accompanied Linghu Chong in the rivers and lakes, so the director wanted to find a good-looking actress in men's clothing to play, and Ye Tong entered the ranks of candidates I have to say that Ye Tong's acting ability is really strong, and her performance as Yue Lingshan is really pleasing to the eye. She played the playful and infatuated appearance of the little junior sister very well. Among the many actresses, Ye Tong's appearance is not top-notch, but Ye Tong's charm is also lacking in many actresses, so this version of Yue Lingshan did not disappoint the audience. In the new version of "Swordsman", Xu Jinyang still doesn't want Ye Tong to play Yue Lingshan, mainly because he thinks of Xu Xian when he sees her, it's too dramatic. However, Ye Tong is a actress who is ignored by everyone, her acting skills are very good, it is definitely not as simple as playing Xu Xian in reverse. In the past ten years, Ye Tong has been nominated seven times and won three times. She is the first actress who won the Golden Horse Award and the Golden Horse Award. With this winning record, it was very difficult to find a second actress in Xiangjiang at that time. According to the development of this momentum, and relying on Ye Tong's extraordinary acting talent, she is very likely to be like Zhang Manyu, not only in Hong Kong, but also in the international arena.
However, her life "deviated from the track" at this time, Ye Tong did not choose to continue to cultivate in the film industry, she chose to switch to the TV drama industry. After entering the TV drama circle, Ye Tong showed her unique and androgynous unlimited potential, and became "the first spokesperson for men who disguise themselves as women". She is Yue Lingshan, Linghu Chong's junior sister in "Swordsman", the eager and righteous Yue Ying in "Love in the Blue Sea", the cunning and charming Zhao Min in "The Story of Yitian Tulong", and the affectionate expert in "Legend of the New White Snake". One Xu Xian. Especially many people in the mainland know Ye Tong from the role of Xu Xian. In fact, "Xu Xian" is a double-edged sword for Ye Tong. On the one hand, this role has indeed made her a household name; but on the other hand, because the role is so deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it is difficult for Ye Tong to break this classic and reshape another role. For example, Teacher Six can only think of Monkey King, and Li Ruotong can only think of Little Dragon Girl... To some extent, Xu Xian restricted Ye Tong's development in the later period, and after watching any drama of hers, Xu Xian would be inexplicably reminded. In the past few years when Ye Tong moved to the TV drama industry, Zhang Manyu has begun to get rid of the "vase image", and has sprung up like mushrooms, winning awards at domestic and international film festivals. Fortune tricks people, and people's fate may suddenly turn around because of a certain choice. Just like in the 1980s, there was a wave of going abroad in mainland China. At that time, popular female stars, such as Zhang Yu from "Love in Lushan Mountain" and Chen Chong from "The Last Emperor" all chose to go abroad for further studies. After these female stars returned to China, they found that the film and television industry in the mainland had changed a lot, and they had already missed the best opportunity for development. If Ye Tong had used Dongfeng to continue to cultivate in the film industry, maybe her life would have been different? But, what if in life? After 2000, Ye Tong's works have decreased significantly, and there are even no works that can be sold. On the Internet, the most beautiful Xiangjiang actresses of that era are often counted, most of them are actresses such as Lin Qingxia, Wang Zuxian, and Zhong Chuhong, and it is rare to see Ye Tong. Because we are used to seeing Ye Tong disguised as a woman playing Xu Xian, but we don't know that she once had a peerless beauty. Perhaps in the entertainment industry full of beauties, she is not the "standard image of beauty", but she is the kind of beauty that people will never forget. Zhou Runfa once commented on her, saying, "There is an actress whom I admire very much. She has reached the level of proficiency in acting in emotional dramas... I feel like an electric shock when I act opposite her, like a warm current running across my heart. She is Ye Tong." Ye Tong has a unique temperament and is extremely malleable. Every lady, Xiaojiabiyu, good family women, romantic women, ancient costumes, fashion, tragedies, and comedies can all be performed perfectly.
Although Ye Tong's acting skills are very good, Xu Jinyang still thinks that she, like Zhang Manyu, is due to her lack of beautiful personal image, so she strives to improve her acting skills. And because the judges don't have to be confused by their beauty, they can also see their acting skills. This is where they have an advantage over Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong and others. Xu Jinyang didn't think Ye Tong was ugly, but he watched "Legend of the New White Snake" several times at that time, and he couldn't help but see Ye Tong as Xu Xian. This very weird feeling affected his perception, so he still prefers to play the little junior sister Yue Lingshan with someone else. Xu Jinyang originally wanted Li Jiaxin in the second part to play Ren Yingying, but if Li Jiaxin plays now, will it affect her running for Miss Hong Kong next year? And if Li Jiaxin can't run for Miss Hong Kong, she always feels that something is missing. So Xu Jinyang finally decided to let Li Ruotong play the little junior sister. Many people may not be able to imagine how Ji Nuoxing, who later played Little Dragon Girl, could play Yue Lingshan. In fact, the appearance of Li Ruotong in 1987 was very different from that of Li Ruotong in 1995. (Leave Wang Zhao) Now Li Ruotong is only about 20 years old, still a little baby fat, looks tall and cute, looks very suitable to play the role of junior sister. If you have seen the photos of Li Ruotong when he was a flight attendant, you should understand that Xu Jinyang made the right choice. After she put on Yue Lingshan's costume, she still matched her appearance very well. Li Ruotong was a little disappointed and discouraged by Xu Jinyang's deliberate indifference to him. But she didn't expect that Xu Jinyang gave her such a good opportunity to play the heroine in the first "Swordsman", which gave her some hope. But Xu Jinyang has not launched any attack on Li Ruotong for some reason until now. Maybe it's because I haven't met Li Ruotong's former boyfriend Guo Yingquan who harmed her a lot in that life. After meeting, "Xu Ningyang will destroy that guy in ten minutes...
