How is Jiang Xiaohan doing now? Does anyone know?

Jiang Xiaohan shines on CCTV after returning from studying abroad

From the US Oscars to the Hong Kong Film Awards, CCTV Movie Channel has hosted two important live broadcasts in succession, and the hosts were both smash hits back then. child star Jiang Xiaohan. After not seeing each other for many years, Jiang Xiaohan seemed to be a completely different person. Her mature conversation and pure accent revealed when pronouncing foreign names made people sit up and take notice.

Studying in the UK is looking for a "breakthrough"

Jiang Xiaohan told reporters that at the end of 2001, when she was nearly 20 years old, she went to study in the UK. It was not easy to make this decision at the time. As she grew older, she could no longer "pretend" to be innocent on the screen. "As far as I know, it is difficult for Chinese child stars to develop significantly when they grow up. The audience's pickyness is on the one hand, and the pressure from oneself also has a lot to do with it. Even if we don't consider how much development they can have in the future, they just want to become an ordinary talented person. As an adult with one skill, I urgently need to strengthen my studies."

She successfully passed the "Drama, Film and Television Studies Major" at the School of Drama at the University of Manchester in the UK. Jiang Xiaohan said that she was the only Asian student in that major. Since she had not gone through any special English preparatory studies, the language level was enough for her. "In the first year of studying Shakespeare's plays, I was stumped by the large volumes of original Old English works. In order not to be left behind by my classmates, I had to spend all day in class and the library. I had never studied so hard in China. ”

During the four years of studying in the UK, Jiang Xiaohan not only studied hard, but also actively participated in various activities of the university. He served as the vice chairman of the Manchester Chinese Students and Scholars Association, and won the cultural award of the Chinese Embassy in the UK many times. commendation.

Not burdened by the fame of a child star

When it comes to Jiang Xiaohan, there has been a popular "saying" for a long time: she is the daughter of the famous Chinese singer Jiang Dawei. In this regard, Jiang Xiaohan solemnly refuted the rumors and said: "I have heard people say this a long time ago. This is definitely a misinformation. We also talked about these things when we performed with teacher Jiang Dawei in China. Jiang Dawei's daughter is much older than me. . My father is also engaged in film, television and record production, which may be the source of the rumors!"

When it comes to the phenomenon that child stars are difficult to be "likeable" when they grow up, Jiang Xiaohan has his own opinion. : "I don't know much about Jin Ming's current situation. As far as I'm concerned, being famous at a young age does put a lot of pressure on me, because our 'starting point' is too high. In the eyes of the audience, They would rather relive the way we used to be. Every child star will go through a process of spiritual transformation. At the crossroads of life, there are only two paths: one is to revel in past achievements, which may be satisfying, but can only be illusory. The other is to break through myself and take a new path, and I chose the latter."

In foreign countries, Jiang Xiaohan fully enjoyed the "mortal dream" that was difficult to realize when he was young. "My classmates didn't know what I did before. It wasn't until one day in my third year of college that they accidentally learned that I was a child star who had filmed many movies and TV series and released six solo albums. They were all surprised."

At the Movie Channel

In the second half of 2005, after graduation, Jiang Xiaohan did not rush to immigrate like many other international students, but returned to China immediately. "I have always been determined that my future career must be in China. Even if it is not as successful as in the past, even if I am an ordinary person, I have no regrets." However, the lucky Jiang Xiaohan soon found his best career. She has the best position. In the first two months after joining the movie channel, she had the opportunity to host the "2005 China Film Industry High-Level Forum". With her outstanding performance, she was spotted by both "Good Films" and "World Movie Tour" , served as the host of these two columns, and had the opportunity to interview famous Chinese and foreign film figures such as Zhang Yimou, Takakura Ken, Jet Li, Jean Reno, etc. This time, he served as the backstage host for the high-profile Oscars live broadcast.

Jiang Xiaohan said: "I hope one day I can try to play some roles again, but I have to eat one bite at a time, so I'd better do my job as a host first."
