During this time, Li Naiwen frequently appeared on the hot search.
In the CCTV hit drama "Going North", he played the role of Zhou Yanlin, the owner of the Canal Hotel. In the play, he has gentle manners and delicate words, and is called "gentle daddy" by netizens.
When it comes to Li Naiwen, many viewers say that he is a "Sven scum" because his villain role is impressive.
He once played the villain in the TV series "Black and White Forbidden Zone" - President Lu Mingsong. In the play, he has silver hair, sharp eyes, and chic movements, and was once praised by netizens as "making people's hearts move" and "like a cunning and dark beauty god".
He also played the role of the director of the city government in the movie "Solid as a Rock", which is extremely deep and kind on the surface; the ruthless spies in "On the Cliff" with indifference and calculation in their eyes; The medical representative who lacks the human touch in "I Am Not the God of Medicine......
In these popular movies and hit dramas, although he is not a big male lead, he impresses everyone with his elegant temperament and cold eyes. Some people call him "the top of the uncle circle" and "the ancient Greek god in charge of gray hair". In this regard, Li Naiwen explained that he was called "uncle", probably because although he had some gray hair, fortunately, his face was okay, "If his face is also old, it is estimated that he will call me uncle." ”
As an actor, Li Naiwen is very self-disciplined, not only has a well-maintained face, but also does not deduct points for his figure. There is a video of Li Naiwen's fitness circulating on the Internet, a powerful chest expansion exercise shows his muscle lines to the fullest, and netizens are lamenting that his figure is well managed, and he can't tell that he is nearly 50 years old.
In life, Li Naiwen is humorous and funny, with his own laughter.
In a live broadcast, the director shouted "turn off the screen", Li Naiwen took out a cigarette, but the picture had not been cut away. He was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips in panic, and was jokingly called by netizens as "pretending to be Yu Hewei among the elongated people" and "laughing like a bitter life".
Some people say that Li Naiwen has a perfect appearance and interesting soul, bringing people a sense of professionalism in the play and a sense of pleasure outside the play.
Even Song Dandan once lamented in a show: "Naiwen is so good, why has it never been popular?" ”
Some people say that Li Naiwen's ability to gain a firm foothold in the film and television industry is inseparable from the tenacity in his bones. But if you count the source of his artistic path, you have to go back to that childhood full of drama - the sound of rehearsals in the Chinese opera compound, the smell of oil paint backstage, and the group of "special mentors" around him...... This kind of growing up immersed in drama is more vivid than any acting training class.
Li Naiwen's mother was a drama actor at the Tianjin People's Art Theater, and his father was a doctor. Compared with his father's calm and rigorous, his mother's personality is more open-minded and cheerful, and this character also deeply affects Li Naiwen.
Since he was a child, Li Naiwen's family atmosphere has been very relaxed and pleasant. His parents were affectionate, he never quarreled, and he often held hands together and went to the ballroom to dance. Later, when the dance hall went out of business, my parents played music and danced hand in hand at home.
When he was in kindergarten, Li Naiwen often followed his mother to the troupe, and the stage became his playground, at that time he never thought that he would perform on stage one day, but his mother's expression and movements when performing dramas were deeply rooted in Li Naiwen's heart.
When he was 5 years old, the theater needed a children's role, and his mother pushed it casually: "Let Li Naiwen try." Unexpectedly, this young child has no stage fright, and his lines are spoken fluently and naturally, even more stage than some adult actors.
"As soon as I came on stage, I flew all over the field, I should talk about words, I should walk around, and no one was afraid." Li Naiwen recalled.
Since then, he has become the "queen actor" of the theater and has participated in 4 major plays in a row.
He was not nervous at all on stage, and he would even find that the old actor's lines were wrong, and he ran over to remind him after the performance: "Dada, you said something wrong again." ”
Perhaps it was this talent that made his mother feel that he was suitable for this path. So, when she was admitted to university, she directly asked Li Naiwen to apply for her alma mater, the Central Academy of Drama.
Li Naiwen listened to his mother's advice and successfully passed the first and second tests. As a result, during the third test, he was abnormally affected due to nervousness and was included in the list of self-financed students.
At that time, the tuition fee for self-financed students was as high as more than 5000 yuan, which was a lot of money for ordinary families.
Li Naiwen didn't say a word after returning home. The mother saw the clue at a glance, but said lightly: "Son, don't feel uncomfortable, take care of it, I and your father can borrow this money." My requirement for you is that after this 4 years, you have to make the teacher feel that it is wrong to let you pay for yourself. ”
This sentence has become the biggest motivation in Li Naiwen's 4-year college career. At school, he tried his best to prove himself and get perfect marks in his subjects.
同班同學朱媛媛曾回憶:“早上7點,他就在宿舍門口敲門,說作業沒排好,拉著大家一起排練。”
His efforts were recognized by his teachers. The head teacher once sighed: "Let Li Naiwen pay for himself, it's really sorry for him." ”
At this time, all Li Naiwen was thinking about was: Parents, I didn't disappoint you.
Li Naiwen's college life, summed up, is "good popularity, solid skin, and able to toss".
The classmates acted, he was responsible for playing music in the background, he lay on the stereo with a serious face, pouting his buttocks, his mouth pursed slightly, and waited for the sensational moment to come, and pressed the play button accurately. As a result, the teacher didn't watch the actor, stared at him the whole time, and bluntly said, "This kid is more exciting than on stage."
In his sophomore year, he went to the crew to make a cameo appearance and got the first salary in his life - 5000 yuan. He happily rushed to the train station, but before he could get on the train, he found that the money was gone.
When he got home, he didn't dare to tell his parents, so he stubbornly said: "Wait for the others to finish filming and make a unified payment." ”
The family believed it and said, "Then I don't have to give you the living expenses for this semester, right?" Li Naiwen gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, absolutely not." ”
So, he spent the most embarrassing semester of his college years. Every weekend when there is no money to eat, Li Naiwen and his roommates watch "Ordinary World" to carry hunger, but when they see that the protagonist can't afford to eat because of poverty, the two of them hug their heads and cry again, muttering: "Isn't this written by me!" ”
Later, he practiced a "rice rubbing technique":
When he met his classmates at dinner, his classmates habitually asked him "what are you doing" and "have you eaten", Li Naiwen replied, "I haven't eaten yet", so his classmates invited him to go to the cafeteria together, and he could have a meal.
Li Naiwen also has a title called "Li Shiyuan". At that time, classmate Wang Qianyuan opened a small restaurant near the school, and Li Naiwen only gave ten yuan no matter what meal he ordered, but at the same time, Li Naiwen would also help Wang Qianyuan serve food and order for guests in the store.
In fact, friends know that he is a righteous person, and everyone is willing to help him and carry the most difficult times together.
Moreover, Li Naiwen's heterogeneity is also very good.
In the mouth of a female classmate, Li Naiwen will always be the one who is both sincere and a little naughty. They often say that "they don't treat Li Naiwen as a man", but they are like good girlfriends and sisters.
The college years passed quickly, Li Naiwen thought that he would start acting smoothly after graduation, but he didn't expect that after graduation, he once fell into a situation where there was no drama to film, at that time he ran a lot of crews, but the staff was full.
has been rejected many times, and Li Naiwen will inevitably feel a sense of loss in his heart. When he was desperate, he really thought about changing careers, and he went to a company to interview white-collar workers. The interviewer asked him what he would do, and he said I would read it aloud. The interviewer politely said 3 words: "Get out." Li Naiwen was devastated.
At that moment, he really knew that there was no turning back on the road of being an actor, and he could only continue to move forward.
So he took the initiative to find Director Meng Jinghui, hoping that Director Meng would find him when he was filming.
At the beginning, Li Naiwen was a group performance without a single line, and then slowly had one, one, and half lines. From a group performance to the protagonist, he has been on the stage of dramas for 7 years, and has dedicated countless word-of-mouth dramas, the most famous of which is "Rhino in Love".
"Rhino in Love" has toured hundreds of performances across the country, and the venues are full. Later, at the curtain call, whenever the director introduced Li Naiwen, the audience would burst into warm applause.
At that moment, he burst into tears, and he knew that he had finally stood in the hearts of the audience.
After getting results on the stage of dramas, Li Naiwen began to transform into film and television dramas.
At the beginning, he had a lot of problems: "I was used to acting in dramas, I was a little confused when facing the camera, I couldn't grasp the rhythm and aura, I had a lot of selfish thoughts, and I couldn't find my place." ”
At this time, he told his mother who had been silently supporting him behind him about his predicament. His mother told him not to worry, he had to learn to adjust slowly, and it was the same when he was cooked. So Li Naiwen followed his mother's advice, slowly adjusted himself, and gradually found self-confidence.
He has acted in many romantic dramas, and in 2020 years, Li Naiwen played Xiao Yushan in "The Beginning of Love". quarreled with his wife, and when the two sides were arguing, Xiao Yushan kissed his wife fiercely and took the initiative to make peace, and finally his wife was defeated.
Netizens commented: "I think this trick works for me", "If my husband is like this, I won't become more and more irritable", "The main thing is that he is Li Naiwen, it's hard to refuse", and some media called this scene as: "Husbands and wives often quarrel, and it can't be solved without a wild kiss." ”
In the TV series "Faith", Li Naiwen contributed the classic acting skills of "watching this drama for this scene". Wang Zhenchuan, played by him, watched his daughter being hit by a stray bullet, his eyes were red, and his eyes were full of pain, unwillingness and heartbreak, which made people feel distressed.
In 2024 years, Li Naiwen played Zhang Mingyang in the TV series "Mr. Love", and when he confessed to his dream lover, he was so sincere that he burst into tears, and the affectionate "I love you" hit the hearts of many audiences.
In 2024 years, Li Naiwen once again contributed an impressive performance in "Our Days", his father Wang Xianping seems to be old-fashioned and stubborn, but he is actually soft in his heart.
Li Naiwen once said: "A character is really unreal, pass my level first, I believe it, and the audience will believe it." And he has always insisted on his own ideas, each time with his own thinking, giving the director and the audience different interpretations.
Some people commented that Li Naiwen's performance had a "sense of relaxation", a look, a pause in breathing, and even unconscious swallowing when speaking, all of them seemed to be part of the role.
李乃文常說:"My mother's teachings have always accompanied me in my acting career. Usually the old lady always spurs me on, watching my play, she praises it if she thinks it is good, and points it out directly if she thinks it is bad. ”
After so many years of hard work, his mother has silently observed Li Naiwen behind his back, being his most loyal audience and the strictest teacher.
In Li Naiwen's eyes, his mother will always be happy and happy, but an incident that happened in 2015 changed Li Naiwen's mind.
Li Naiwen once recalled that on the day his father died, he hurried home, and when he saw his mother for the first time, he felt that his mother's heart was "empty", and his mother's eyes were dull, and there were no tears.
Li Naiwen hugged his mother, and his mother slowly raised her hand to hug Li Naiwen. At that time, there were many people around, but Li Naiwen instantly felt that the surroundings suddenly became very quiet, and there seemed to be only himself and his mother in the world.
But at that moment, Li Naiwen knew that his mother was the saddest of all the people present. For many years, my mother was immersed in this melancholy state. He knew that his mother had been trying to adjust, and he said: "My mother has been trying to tell myself to live well and not be crushed by this. ”
In the years after his father left, as long as Li Naiwen was not filming in particularly remote places, he would take his mother to his side, in order to take care of his mother, and let his mother no longer feel lonely.
Over the years, his mother has not asked much of him, only wishing him health, peace and happiness. But she has a little habit that if there is no news of her son for a long time, she can't help but worry. The two made a rule: if they didn't send WeChat for more than two days, they had to send 200 red envelopes to their mother.
"It's a reminder that Mom is still waiting for me." He said.
As Li Naiwen has appeared more and more in the public eye in recent years, his marriage situation has also caused many speculations. It wasn't until Li Naiwen was 48 years old that he said in an interview that his lover often said that he was like a child, and his words were full of tenderness and love.
Li Naiwen once said that his wife is an outsider, and in marriage, he always puts his wife first.
My friend Fang Bin once commented that Li Naiwen's wife asked him to go west, and Li Naiwen could run directly to the westernmost side.
When asked how to keep his marriage fresh, he smiled and said:"Treat your daughter-in-law as a leader."
He also applied for private money with his wife, because when he wanted to buy a surprise gift for his wife, once he asked his wife for money, there was no surprise.
My friend Zhu Yuanyuan once broke the news that at a party, Li Naiwen was drunk and slept in the car, and he couldn't wake up no matter how he called when he arrived at his house. There was no way, so Zhu Yuanyuan called Li Naiwen's wife and asked her to go downstairs to pick up Li Naiwen home. Unexpectedly, Li Naiwen's wife just stood next to the car and called "Naiwen" to him, Li Naiwen woke up instantly and immediately followed his wife home. A few of my friends were shocked.
Li Naiwen has always been a good actor, but in front of his wife and mother, he is the child who will never grow up.
When he was young, his mother took him to the stage of the drama; And now, on the stage of reality, he is trying to make himself the pride of his mother.
At the same time, it is precisely because of his harmonious and happy marriage and family that his career can flourish.
Li Naiwen told the audience with actions: He doesn't need to be "popular overnight", as long as he takes every work seriously for a long time, it is his greatest pursuit in life.
