I have liked Yuan Quan for more than ten years. In my heart, she is an artist with soul and depth.

Speaking of everyone discussing Yuan Quan so enthusiastically on Zhihu today, first of all, we should thank Xia Yu. Teacher Xia Yu is the best actor, even more aloof than Yuan Quan, and will never take a role without a good script. As for Yuan Quan, she insisted on sending her daughter to an international school, so in the past few years she has appeared more and more on the screen, becoming famous, but actually earning tuition to support her children.

Yuan Quan has an audience base. 15 years ago, she made a phenomenal film called "Beautiful Big Feet". The starring role is Ni Ping, and the director is Ni Ping's husband Yang Yazhou. At that time, it won the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Director, Best Film, and Best Actress. It also allowed Yuan Quan to win the Hundred Flowers Award for Best Supporting Actress.

I still have the VCD of this movie. Yuan Quan plays a young woman who abandons the luxurious life in Beijing and goes to teach in the northwest countryside. She was only 24 years old at the time, with sharp facial lines, and her demeanor in a black sweater and woolen hat was the same as Tang Jing's now wearing a Theory cashmere sweater.

The official party media "China Youth" conducted an in-depth interview with Yuan Quan after winning the award, and the content was quite unexpected. This girl who looks like a doll said she had low self-esteem and was awkward when she was in school. With profound facial features, she was admitted to the High School Affiliated to the Chinese Academy of Drama at the age of 11, but she considers herself not beautiful at all.

In 1989, Yuan Quan came to Beijing to study alone. He relied on letters to communicate with his family, and he practiced Peking Opera for seven years without knowing it. As the saying goes, where you come from, where you are going, these seven years of wandering eyes also paved the way for her subsequent extreme obsession with dialogue dramas. This is a girl born for the stage.

In 1996, Yuan Quan was admitted to the famous 96-level acting class of the Central Academy of Drama. Among her classmates were school belle Zeng Li, best actor Liu Ye, best actress Qin Hailu and China's current number one actress Zhang Ziyi. In the same year, Zhao Wei, Huang Xiaoming, and Chen Kun also started their four-year university life at Nortel.

I have always felt that if Yuan Quan had not transformed into drama, his status should be on the same level as Si Dan Shuang Bing, or at least lower than Si Dan and higher than Shuang Bing. She won the Golden Rooster before graduating from college and participated in "Blue Love" directed by Huo Jianqi. Yuan Quan, wearing a Chocker, has a transcendent fashion.
