Truong Tung Van: 800 film crews refused, responded when forced to skip Tet to film

Being rejected by the film crew 1, 2 or 3 times is painful, but being rejected 800 times is quite rare in showbiz. The following talented actor encountered this rare situation and overcame it spectacularly.

When he was young, Truong Tung Van did many jobs. Before turning 25, he worked at a printing factory, beverage marketer, air conditioner installer and repairman, hotel hostess, restaurant manager, or even a tour guide. Once sharing with the press, Truong Tung Van said he did so many jobs not because he liked it, but because he needed money.

At the same time, Truong Tung Van began to have a passion for acting. However, he was quite self-conscious because he thought that because he was old, no one needed a new U30 actor. At that time, a friend told him, "How late is late? Zhang Yimou didn't start studying filmmaking until he was 28 years old!". It was this sentence that motivated him to start studying acting and then graduate from the Beijing Film Academy. Friends and teachers at that time all believed that Truong Tung Van would succeed because he was very good, but life was too bitter.

Truong Tung Van once confided that in the first 3 years since graduating, he was rejected by 800 film crews. For nearly a year, he only went to work exactly 4 days, and sometimes only earned 4,000 yuan (more than 13 million VND) the whole year. At that time, Truong Tung Van met and asked some film crew members and received a harsh reason: because he was ugly and short.

"Look at yourself, you're not handsome or tall. Why are you so stubborn in this profession? You should change your profession and live a little more realistically," a director bluntly told the actor. . Even when going to a casting with a classmate, both Truong Tung Van and that friend were criticized to their faces and rejected because they looked like a dwarf and a gorilla.

However, Truong Tung Van did not give up, and in the end the acting profession did not abandon him. In 2005, Truong Tung Van had his first role in Thua Long Quai Te. Even though it was only a very small role, this project was the first "sweet fruit" he received after being rejected hundreds of times. Later, he had many more notable roles, participating in bigger projects such as Duong Quy Phi's Secret History, Four Great Names, Ip Man, The Last Leader... Whether playing a supporting or main role, Truong Tung Van surprised everyone with his solid acting.

It wasn't until 2020 that Truong Tung Van's name began to be known independently, not depending on his seniors, thanks to playing Secret Hidden Corner and Chinatown Detective. Thanks to two films, Truong Tung Van is called "master" because his acting is increasingly sublimated. Later, the actor became familiar with radio dramas, often having projects broadcast on CCTV.

However, by 2023, Cuong Phong will be considered Truong Tung Van's acting peak. He plays the villain Cao Khoi Cuong, who confronts the male lead played by Truong Dich. "Song Truong" was then flying high on the character temperature charts, and Truong Tung Van was also a rare villain in many years who had a burst of fame. Many viewers believe that the 7X actor is sure to be nominated for the Hoa Bieu and Bach Ngoc Lan awards, but the truth continues to "tease" him.

Truong Tung Van disappeared from major television awards, including Bach Ngoc Lan, making many viewers confused and even angry. Chinese media at that time said that Truong Tung Van was pressured by playing the role of Cao Khoi Cuong too realistically, like a real villain. Many viewers even joked that they should hand over Truong Tung Van to the investigation to see if he was really "evil" or not.

With the Chinese Film Department's policy of not promoting evil to the throne, Truong Tung Van could not be nominated for major awards thanks to a villainous role, even though his acting even overwhelmed his peers. starring Truong Dich. Up to now, the incident of "Boss Cao missed Bach Ngoc Lan's party" is still the most discussed event in 2023.

However, Truong Tung Van's life was not affected too much. At the age of U50, he is still actively acting, cheerful and happy with his "fun single" life, not in a hurry to get married or have children like many of his peers.
