The word-of-mouth of several TV dramas has won unanimous praise. In many people's childhood memories, the happiness of the weekend was given by Journey to the West. I forgot to eat, and watched and watched in front of the TV until the music "Deng Deng Deng Deng Deng Deng Deng ~" started, and I began to savor the story that I had already memorized with relish.
Anyone who has seen the 86 edition of Journey to the West should know that the shooting of just 25 episodes is full of twists and turns. Not to mention the simple shooting environment for the time being, the actors of Tang Yan changed three times.
Until Chi's performance, he finally went to the Western Heaven to learn from the Buddhist scriptures. However, when Journey to the West spread all over the country and became a household name, he chose to quit the entertainment circle. What are the conditions?
Tonight, let me tell the story of Tang Priest's madness.
The opportunity to explode.
Being born in a family often plays an important role in shaping children's growth trajectory.
1952, late, five generations of Peking Opera family. The strong atmosphere of Peking Opera encourages the young late to embark on the artistic path. However, influenced by the Cultural Revolution, the wave of banning Peking Opera swept through.
After several twists and turns, Chi embarked on the road of art: first, he worked as a farmer in Heilongjiang Construction Corps, then as a literary and art soldier in Yunnan, and was admitted to China Radio and Art Troupe after retiring from the army. Two years later, he was sent to Shanghai Theatre Academy as he wished.
At school, Chi won a role in the TV series "Doulao Kouhuahua" by virtue of her excellent artistic cells, which won the praise of many audiences.
After graduation, Chi stayed on the set for a year and a half, and made several film and television works successively: Uncle Huan, The Second Son in Love in a Pen, Du Mingguang in Late Autumn, and Sun Shuikang, the leader of aquatic products in No Misunderstanding. 1984, late to Beijing to prepare CCTV red TV series "Harbin Night". This trip back to Beijing became the fuse to meet The Journey to the West later.
After the filming of "Harbin Night", I returned to the radio theater late to get my salary. On the second floor of the theater is the computer room of the TV production center, where Yang Jie, director of The Journey to the West, is editing.
At this time of Journey to the West, the filming progress was not smooth. First, Wang Yue, who was worried that the image of Tang Priest would restrict her performance, gave up halfway; Subsequently, Xu, who left school, gave up acting one after another, leaving Yang Jie at a loss about the future of TV series.
Sad Yang Jie walked out of the computer room and walked in the dark corridor. Suddenly, a tall man with good facial features walked past her.
Elegant temperament instantly caught Yang Jie's attention: Isn't this the Tang Priest I want? Yang Jie, who ignited hope, quickly stopped the other party and asked, "Which unit are you from?" How come I haven't seen you before? "
This time, I asked a question and turned an unwanted supporting role into a hero deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
After shaving my head and reading the script, it seems that I entered the inner world of Tang Priest and got to know the character. The figure of Tang Priest is not thin. He has a soft face and a soft heart, but he also has many aspects, such as broad-minded and knowledgeable. Deduction is not difficult, but with excellent acting skills, Chi successfully put this three-dimensional person in.
If playing a role well means playing well, then the definition of playing well is very cheap. What kind of performance is the true embodiment of the actor's basic skills.
Besides the Tang Priest, the Dragon King, the civil servants in heaven and even Friar Sand are all the roles he tried in the play. When it comes to portraying the role incisively and vividly, we have to mention the image of the Monkey King pretending to be the Tang Priest in The Kingdom of Monks. Look at this "Tang Priest" swaggering, scratching his head and laughing like a monkey.
The shooting was successfully completed in a tight time. Get the true scriptures, applause thundered, and the four became famous in one fell swoop. At the peak of his career, Chi resolutely gave up his acting career. He turned down countless performance opportunities and faded out of the public eye. It is precisely because of the married life of Chi and Chen Lihua that it has once again aroused heated discussion in society.
Opposing love
In the late 1990s, Chi and his wife Chen Lihua returned to Beijing from Hongkong and started their business career. The red sandalwood career of husband and wife is the result of the efforts of both sides for common interests. That's why they met.
The first time we met was at a Beijing opera performance. At that time, Chen Lihua's career was in full swing. However, enterprising women also long for love. Looking at this slow and gentle man in front of him, Chen Lihua's appreciation arises spontaneously. Under the introduction of a friend, the two met. The common interests and hobbies made them open their mouths and chat quickly, which soon ignited the spark of love.
Putting aside secular prejudice, Chi and Chen Lihua decided to get married without worrying about the age gap between teenagers. Regrettably, this marriage has not been blessed by many people. After the romance was made public, the late key word was no longer "Tang Priest", but "Soft Rice Man".
The public opinion that Chi calmly faces. He didn't explain too much, but said in a few words: "Everyone thinks I have any evil thoughts, but it's not like this. I believe that time will prove everything. "
Indeed, 30 years later, despite malicious speculation, this is a love without any gossip and negative news. The rumor is broken, and it's time to solve it.
If one word is used to describe their feelings, they should be complementary. Chen Lihua is a strong woman with high efficiency and quick temper. But from the late body, we rarely see the strong side.
Chi abandoned the concept of male chauvinism and showed respect for his wife in every detail. For decades, the two treated each other like guests and never quarreled. I respect your leadership. Besides your wife, you also protect my dignity from humiliation. In order to get rid of the negative image of her husband, Chen Lihua even took the initiative to share her story of pursuing each other with the world.
In many people's feelings, a handsome young man should match a beautiful woman. If he falls in love with an old woman, it is undoubtedly abnormal love. Forbes list of China's richest women should be with the rich, and vice versa. In a relationship, if a perfect match is a necessary condition for a beautiful love, then the simple emotion of love will become complicated. Marriage is not a law, and love has no rules. There is no right or wrong for women to be strong and men to be weak or men to be strong and women to be weak. What is wrong is only the secular environment influenced by those pedantic secular concepts.
People always say that it is difficult to talk about love without material, but not all love is based on material. When a person drinks water, he knows whether it is suitable or not, and only he knows.
When love becomes work
Chi was born in a classical family with a lot of classical furniture. Chen Lihua grew up in the Summer Palace, influenced by the environment, and loved mahogany furniture. 1999, the couple who are interested in classical furniture put a lot of wealth on red sandalwood. They invested huge sums of money to build the China Red Sandalwood Museum, which is known as the first "national prefix" private museum in China.
In order to create high-quality products, Chi, as deputy curator, accompanied curator Chen Lihua to carefully select and collect rosewood.
Out of their love for the traditional classics of Journey to the West, they turned their understanding of Journey to the West into creativity, carved nearly 20 classic scenes in The Journey to the West with Cinnamomum camphora root carving, and completed the art of root carving with the theme of eighty-one difficulties.
No matter whether the taste is elegant or mediocre, being willing to raise love to a sense of mission and responsibility is beyond the reach of many people. The spread of China rosewood art is not only the inheritance of China folk cultural heritage, but also the inheritance of late "down-to-earth" attitude towards life.
I miss you so much that I can't escape the cage of caring about one thing and losing another. If Xuanzang is determined to win this trip, then every step of his trip to Zhong Rui will be easy. When he was an actor, he shaped every role well; When he is a businessman, he does his duty wholeheartedly; As a husband, he is gentle and tolerant and not afraid of gossip.
Will you really not regret giving up your acting career? I think Zhong Ruichi's negative attitude is absolutely firm and positive. Even if a person only undertakes one identity in his life, why not do it to the extreme?
