Biography
Early life
Nie was born in Zhenyuan County, Guizhou. His parents named his older brother and him "Zhen" and "Yuan" respectively to remind them not to forget their hometown (Zhenyuan). When Nie recalled his adolescent days, he thought of himself as a "marginal youth" back then - he secretly joined the Guiyang Dance Class without informing his parents; when he was around 15 and 16 years old, he smoked, got into fights, and ran away from home. His worried parents sent him to enlist in the PLA. Nie later enrolled in the Shanghai Theatre Academy after completing his service in the army. However, Nie behaved insolently in the academy and was almost expelled for poor conduct, but a teacher appealed for him to stay. After this incident, Nie became more mature and changed his rebellious ways.
Career
Nie first started acting when he was still in the Shanghai Theatre Academy. He was a "highly productive" actor, as he described in his own words, "In times when I was playing with my life, I could finish filming one episode in two days. I tried completing filming a 140 episodes television drama and one movie in a year. This can be taken as a record."
In 2000, after graduating from the academy, Nie and his first girlfriend, actress Huang Yi, collaborated in the television drama Wrong Carriage, Right Groom. Nie did not receive much acclaim for his performance while in contrast, Huang Yi was very successful. In 2001, Nie worked on Tianxia Liangcang with director Wu Ziniu, and was noted for his outstanding performance. Following that, Nie acted in the period dramas Datang Qingshi, Eternity: A Chinese Ghost Story, Hanxue Baoma, and Zhenguan Changge, and experienced a surge in popularity for his portrayal of good-looking young men dressed in ancient Chinese costumes.
In 2004, Nie was named by the Chinese media as one of the "Mainland's New Four Young Actors", along with Huang Xiaoming, Tong Dawei and Yin Xiaotian. That year, producer Zhang Jizhong was searching for someone to play the lead role of Yang Guo in his wuxia television series The Return of the Condor Heroes. Nie was a popular choice for "Yang Guo", and he participated in the audition as well, but eventually lost the role to Huang Xiaoming, who was not as popular as him then. Huang Xiaoming's performance in The Return of the Condor Heroes propelled him to fame, while in contrast, Nie did not advance much in his career. It was said that Nie and Huang developed a rivalry over the incident, but in a 2010 interview, Nie admitted that he did feel depressed when he lost the opportunity to play Yang Guo, but also stated that his feud with Huang Xiaoming is a hype by the media and not true.[1]
From 2008 onwards, Nie's career took an upturn when he starred in television dramas Three Kingdoms and Journey to the West, adaptations of two of the Four Great Classical Novels of Chinese literature. In 2011, he also started working on the films Wang De Shengyan and Jinling Shisan Cha.
Personal life
When he was in his third year at Shanghai Theatre Academy, Nie met actress Huang Yi and started a relationship with her. They also acted together as a couple in the television drama Wrong Carriage, Right Groom. Nie and Huang Yi later broke up as they pursued their respective careers.[2]
Around 2003, Nie started a new relationship, this time with Liu Yun (劉芸), whom he first met when they were working together in Hanxue Baoma. They were later paired up again in Dahan Jinguo (2004). Nie and Liu Yun separated in 2006, and they did not want to mention anything about their relationship again.[3]
On September 28, 2008, Nie married actress Yang Guang (陽光). Their wedding was held in Beijing and more than 300 guests were invited.[4]
