First, start: early career and challenges
Fan Lei's road to art is not plain sailing. Born into an artistic family, he has a profound knowledge of Quyi, but in the face of the severe reality of life, his height and appearance have become obstacles on his way to acting. However, Fan Lei's talent and diligence enabled him to transcend the limits of external conditions and grow from an ordinary soldier to a respected artist.
Fan Lei's father had the opportunity to stay in Beijing with a stronger cultural atmosphere, but for various reasons, this opportunity did not come true in the end, which became his father's lifelong regret. For Fan Lei, this is not only his father's regret, but also his personal motivation. He hopes to fulfill his father's unfinished dream in Beijing, a fertile cultural land.
Therefore, Fan Lei was admitted to the Northern Chinese Quyi School and began his professional art education. Fate, however, seemed to play a joke on him. Just as Fan Lei was about to graduate and enter the gates of Beijing as a literary soldier, the policy of national disarmament made all his plans come to naught.

During his time in the army, Fan Lei did not give up his pursuit of art. After hard training, he took advantage of every opportunity available to perform and practice. In the end, he and Zhou Wei, who was also in the army, became partners, and the two complemented each other on the stage and cooperated tacitly, so Fan Lei became a member of the art troupe and began to show his talents on a larger stage.
With the unremitting efforts in the art troupe, Fan Lei's performance has been more recognized. His acting skills gradually matured and began to take on more acting tasks. Finally, in 1998 and 1999, he appeared on the most influential stage in China, the CCTV Spring Festival Gala, and performed sketches with other actors, winning the love of the audience and the recognition of the industry.
Although these two Spring Festival Gala performances did not make him famous overnight, they have become a valuable asset in his artistic career.
