Moreover, Mr. Li Baotian is very strict about the production of TV series, and never allows the works to be mixed with water. Once, he starred in a 30-episode TV series promised by the producer. Later, the producer cut the TV series into 33 episodes by injecting water, so he was sued by Li Baotian, and the producer paid Li Baotian 6.5438+0.9 million yuan. After this incident, for a long time, the company was afraid to cooperate with Li Baotian again.
Admirable is that Mr Li Baotian didn't attend his son's wedding for filming! On his son's wedding day, tian teacher was allowed to film in the crew, but he was not allowed to attend his son's wedding because he delayed the progress of the whole crew, which was also the regret of Teacher Li Baotian.
Li Baotian didn't officially enter the show business until he was 37. He likes acting since he was a child, but his father doesn't agree with him to be an actor. Li Baotian had a big fight with his father and finally ran away from home. Li Baotian, who left his hometown and struggled alone, experienced the poorest days in his life. He had no money to eat, so he had to eat tofu milk and was finally sent to the hospital. Father knew his news and then went to the hospital to see him, but left without saying a word to him.
Later, Li Baotian learned that his father was seriously ill and died soon, which became a lifelong regret for Li Baotian. For the sake of his father, he worked harder and finally starred in the movie Jianghu, which officially started his acting career. After that, Li Baotian appeared in many classic films, among which Ju Dou made him famous, while Prime Minister Liu made him famous all over the country, and he played the role of Liu Yong.
Li Baotian has strict requirements for art, and from the moment he became an actor, his choice of script roles reached a critical level. It is precisely because of his near-perfect requirements that he even decided not to accept advertisements all his life. Many old players in the entertainment circle cherish their reputation very much. Li was persuaded by others to accept an advertisement for throat lozenges, but later, because he played the role of deaf-mute, he decided to be ashamed of the audience and regretted accepting the advertisement.
But Li Baotian really never made any advertisements in his life. He is a drama fan and only cares about playing the role well. So after he became famous, many people came to him to shoot advertisements, but he refused.
For filming. Li Baotian even gave up attending his son's wedding. On the day of his son's wedding, Li Baotian was filming in the crew. In order not to delay the progress of the crew, Li Baotian stayed in the crew all day, so he missed his son's wedding, which became his regret.
Li Baotian's requirements for filming are almost abnormal. He is not only strict with himself, but also angry with actors who are not dedicated to filming. Once an actor was often late for filming, and Li Baotian was so angry that he deleted all his scenes.
Li Baotian also has a high demand for roles. He once said on the program that he would never cooperate with Wang Gang again. Wang Gang became popular after playing Xiao Shenyang, so his role was Xiao Shenyang, and only this one left the deepest impression on the audience. Before Liu became prime minister, he had no experience of participating in movies and TV series, but he was also a household name because of the broadcast of Harbin Night Show. However, many later audiences first became familiar with Li Baotian and learned from Premier Liu.
Wang Gang once recalled the scene when he entered the "Prime Minister Liu" crew. Although it is the first time to get an electric shock in this industry, Wang Gang is not modest at all and often turns his back on the guests. The crew members are "afraid" of his act of stealing the play. He not only has a sense of existence when acting, but also tells the script what to do. He will modify the script to add drama to himself, and he appears very confident: "I am very confident.
On another occasion, Wang Gang, who likes collecting, couldn't go to the auction in person because there was a scene. He entrusted the field staff to monitor him, and then gave the mobile phone to his assistant. As soon as the auction starts to bid for the collection, the phone will call. At this time, the assistant must send him the phone as soon as possible. In the scene in Little Shenyang, the assistant came over with the phone, and Wang Gang left all the staff there to answer the phone. Mouth kept shouting "another bite, another bite!" .
But if Wang Gang cooperates with an ordinary actor, that's all, but Li Baotian, who plays opposite him, is an unusual actor. In the interview program, Wang Gang also volunteered: "It is said that Baotian is a difficult actor to cooperate with, but I think we have a good cooperation because my revised script is very convincing."
Although Wang Gang was very optimistic, Li Baotian himself did not say so. In another talk show, when the host Cao Yang asked him, Premier Liu has achieved such great success, why didn't you cooperate with them later?
Li Baotian's answer is: "Some people can no longer cooperate. You could say it's a personality difference. I don't want to say who is good or bad, and no one is right or wrong. Just don't take it. And compared with these big names, I prefer to cooperate with unknown young actors, because they are more ambitious, and the actors in the development stage have the spirit of struggle. They want to change themselves. People who haven't become wrists want to be wrists.
Li Baotian's words are thought-provoking. On the surface, he doesn't want to make waves any more, but it's hard to avoid making people feel that he means something between the lines. It is Li Baotian's seriousness that makes him the most difficult actor to cooperate with in the entertainment circle. He can't tolerate anything harmful to the plot. He once filmed the TV series "Imperial Commissioner". Originally, he signed up for 30 episodes, but the film was flooded and the TV was cut from 30 episodes to 33 episodes.
At present, it seems that the TV series with three episodes of water injection is nothing at all, but Li Baotian can't accept it. He took the producer to court and received compensation of 6.5438+0.9 million yuan. This incident also earned him the title of "play bully" and was even banned by the company.
Now Li Baotian has two children and a family of four who are very happy. Although we haven't seen him on the screen for a long time, the roles he played have been deeply imprinted in our minds for a long time.
