这是新家坡海峡时报评论中国当代小生的.CHINA ACTORS – THE NEXT BIG THING? <br><br>China’s screen sirens have long outshone the men on the international stage. Perhaps the time is ripe for the men to take their turn in the spotlight. <br><br>Women in China, it would appear, hold up more than half the sky when it comes to the movies. <br><br>Names of actresses such as Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi have long rolled off film connoisseurs’ tongues. They have captivated international audiences with their illustrious arthouse credentials as well as their shimmering red carpet appearances. <br><br>Gong, arguably the doyenne of Chinese cinema, made her memorable debut in Red Sorghum almost 20 years ago. She appeared recently in two Hollywood films, Memoirs of A Geisha (2005) and Miami Vice (2006), and will appear next in Hannibal Rising. <br><br>Zhang broke through with her dewy-fresh turn in Lee Ang’s Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in 2000, and her Hollywood credits include Memoirs and Rush Hour 2 (2001). <br><br>Which bags the question: Where are the China actors? <br><br>Leaving aside the usual action heroes like Jet Li and Hong Kong superstars Jackie Chan and Chow Yun Fat, very few China actors make a dramatic ripple, much less a splash, in the West. <br><br>It is not for a lack of good actors though. <br><br>Chen Daoming came to prominence acting in TV dramas like The Kangxi Dynasty (2001) while Ge You, a Cannes’ best actor winnder for Zhang Yimou’s To Live (1994), made his name in big-screen comedies like Feng Xiaogang’s Be There Or Be Square (1998) and Big Shot’s Funeral (2001). <br><br>The problem is that few outside China saw their performances. <br><br>Perhaps the question is a more fundamental one: Can Asian men be accepted as sex symbols in the West? <br><br>After all, in order to have international appeal, an actor needs to take on different roles and, thus far, romantic leads in Hollywood films have largely passed Asian men by. <br><br>The Asian woman has always exuded the allure of the exotic Orient to the West. Or more bluntly put, as Dr Wong Lung Hsiang, Singapore Film Society secretary and film reviewer, says they were looked upon from an “erotic and exploitative point of view”. <br><br>In contrast, Asian men were hardly seen in such a light, and were also saddled with other unflattering images. <br><br>But things are looking up. Positive role models like Lost’s Daniel Dae Kim, a Korean, are helping to change people’s mindset towards Asian men on-screen. <br><br>For China actors, the first step to breaking out could lie in their own backyard <br><br>Low Yuen Ping, the managing director of independent film distributors Festive Films, was of the view that “becoming popular in Asia is the best bet to getting the rest of the world to notice you”. <br><br>Now that the window of opportunity has widened, LifeStyle gives the lowdown on the rising brigade of Chinese contenders and susses out their chances of making it big on the international stage.</CC> 。<br>

<TD class=gray14><CC>MAKING IT OR BREAKING IT <br><br>All-Round Entertainer <br><br>ALOYS CHEN KUN, 30 <br>Hails from: Chongqing in western China <br>Graduated from: Beijing Film Academy’s Performance Institute in 2000 <br>Breakthrough: In Dai Sijie’s Balzac and The Little Chinese Seamstress (2002), in which he and Liu Ye play best friends who fall in love with a local beauty (Zhou Xun). <br>You might also have seen him in: Lu Ping’s The Music Box (2006), Li Shaohong’s Baober in Love (2004), CCTV series The Story of a Noble Family (2002). <br>Status: Has proven his versatility by acting on TV and in film as well as releasing two albums. <br>In his own words: “I am still very young and have made only limited contribution to film. Hence, I am only half a movie person.” As to whether he would develop his career further in Hong Kong, he said he would make his name in the mainland first. <br>What critics say: He’s winning hearts in Hong Kong in the TV period drama The Conquest, though more for his good looks than his acting. <br>What’s next: Film director Yin Li’s epic love story The Knot has been released in China. He will also appear in the movie The Door, a psychological thriller that’s a change of pace for both director Li Shaohong and the actor. <br>Chances of making it on the international stage: Chen has clearly set his sights on the mainland for the moment. This suggests that any possible breakthrough will not be taking place soon.</CC> </TD></TR></TABLE>其他的依次是刘烨.黄晓明.李亚鹏.陆毅.胡军.陈坤排在第一!
