At the green banquet of "Farewell to the Overlord", the chips were staggered, and a group of actors were drinking cups. Suddenly, Zhang Guorong, who was half drunk, staggered to Diao Li's husband and shouted: "Li Yan, if you dare to beat Diao Li again in the future, I will find my friend in Hong Kong to clean you up."
The man named Li Yan suddenly looked miserable, and it took half a moment before he stuttered: "Brother... Brother, there is something good to say".
The atmosphere at the scene immediately fell into embarrassment, and after the banquet for a long time, many actors were still quietly discussing: What is the relationship between this woman named Diao Li and Zhang Guorong?
As early as before entering the crew of "Overlord Farewell", Diao Li was one of the most famous characters in the Peking Opera circle, and what is more rare is that she is still a rare "baby leg" old drama bone.
Unfortunately, Diao Li has always been low-key, and now when people talk about her artistic experience, most of them will be admitted to the China Academy of Opera in 1973 as the starting point of her Peking Opera career, few people know, in fact, when Diao Li was 10 years old, she came to Beijing from Dalian to learn art, summer practice three volts, winter practice three nine, extra hard.
Under the high-intensity practice, Diao Li fell ill and had to take a break from school to recuperate. By the time Diao Li returned to school after recovering from her illness, nearly two years had passed.
During this period, the former classmates made rapid progress, leaving Diao Li far behind. Diao Li suddenly found that she was originally an honor student, and suddenly many plays could not be sung, and the basic skills were greatly backward, and even the teacher could not help but want to persuade Diao Li to repeat the grade.
However, Diao Li, who has always been a good student, can be willing to concede defeat like this. She grasped the few remaining semesters, practiced with all her strength, and made up all the homework that had fallen into place in one breath.
When it came to the graduation examination, Diao Li surpassed her classmates in one fell swoop, and returned to the ranks of excellent students with excellent results in various subjects such as literary drama, martial arts, and basic skills, becoming the only "all-excellent student" in the class.
The enviable results prompted Diao Li to become a fragrant feast in the pear garden line as soon as she graduated. Some theaters even found the leaders of Diao Li's college and proposed that as long as Diao Li was assigned, they were willing to "take one belt and ten" and give the school ten more places to assign work.
Fortunately, the school leaders resisted the temptation and insisted on arranging Diao Li to the Peking Opera House in China. With great joy, the China Peking Opera House not only let the fledgling Diao Li participate in the performance of many important programs, but also wrote the name of Diao Li and the names of many artistic predecessors when writing the cast list.
With the popularity of the Peking Opera, Diao Li soon became famous in the Peking Opera circle. At this time, director Chen Kaige wanted to shoot the movie "Farewell to the King" containing elements of Peking Opera, and the crew lacked a drama teacher to guide Zhang Guorong, and director Chen Kaige could not help but find Diao Li to help.
Out of love for Peking Opera, Diao Li did not say a word, and immediately agreed to director Chen Kaige. At this time, she did not know this decision, which was about to allow her and Zhang Guorong to start a different kind of friendship.
Years later, Diao Li still remembers the scene when she met Zhang Guorong. At that time, she came to the crew according to the agreement with director Chen Kaige, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw an actor with a full face full of costumes, that is, Zhang Guorong.
At that time, Diao Li was devoted to the study of Peking Opera art, and did not know that Zhang Guorong had a great reputation in the show business circle. She just looked at Zhang Guorong with the eyes of the students, and then said sternly: "Do all the Peking Opera moves you will do to show me."
Zhang Guorong immediately practiced according to his words, and after a period of practice, Diao Li said satisfactorily: "Yes, I have no problem watching your performance."
Hearing Diao Li's praise, Zhang Guorong smiled like a child. He said to Diao Li: "I have seen you play "The Legend of the White Snake", your body is very good, you can rest assured, I will definitely learn from you seriously." ”
In this way, Diao Li and Zhang Guorong began a different kind of teacher-student relationship. The actors of the same crew often saw Diao Li carefully guiding Zhang Guorong's Peking Opera appearance, and sometimes Zhang Guorong failed to understand the main points of Diao Li's words, and Diao Li would also take Zhang Guorong's practice over and over again to ensure that Zhang Guorong's every appearance in front of the camera was amazing.
Diao Li's careful guidance was exchanged for Zhang Guorong's sincere treatment. In addition to filming, Zhang Guorong always pays attention to Diao Li everywhere, sometimes the two go out to eat one after the other, Zhang Guorong will stop every few steps to see if Diao Li has followed.
Zhang Guorong's careful care impressed Diao Li, once, the two went out to eat together, Diao Li looked at Zhang Guorong's gentlemanly style in front of her, remembered her husband's machismo style, a moment of sadness came from it, and couldn't help but tell Zhang Guorong all the bitterness in her heart.
It turned out that Diao Li's husband Li Yan, although he was a respectable theater director in the same crew, as soon as he returned home, Li Yan gave instructions to Diao Li, and when he was slightly unsatisfactory, he punched and kicked Diao Li, so that Diao Li was always shrouded in the shadow of domestic violence.
Zhang Guorong was silent after hearing this, but since then, he has retained his heart for Li Yan. Once, Li Yan again because of a little trivial matter, in the crew publicly beat Diao Li, Zhang Guorong saw the situation, immediately rushed up to try to pull Li Yan away, who knew that just ran two steps, was hugged by another actor in the crew.
Zhang Guorong was stunned, and before he could ask, the actor said leisurely: "You don't care about the matter of two people." ”
At this time, the onlookers also echoed and advised Zhang Guorong to be nosy, and Zhang Guorong had to endure it for the time being.
However, Zhang Guorong is the most righteous to his friends in his life, how can he really let Diao Li be bullied. Not long after, Zhang Guorong took the opportunity of the "Overlord Farewell" to the Qingqing banquet, and sternly warned Li Yan in public not to provoke Diao Li, which suddenly stunned all the actors.
However, Zhang Guorong, who was domineering and leaky, became a gentle and obedient student in front of Diao Li in seconds. After the filming of "Farewell to the Overlord", Zhang Guorong specially entrusted someone to give diao Li the costumes he used in the play to commemorate this teacher-student relationship that was also a teacher and a friend.
Unfortunately, Diao Li, who left the crew, did not get rid of the threat of her husband's domestic violence. The bad marriage once made Diao Li feel overwhelmed, and even had the idea of quitting the Peking Opera circle. Fortunately, many of Diao Li's friends have been guarding Diao Li's side and accompanying her through this darkest moment of her life.
Among them, it has to be mentioned that Zhang Guorong.
According to anecdotal rumors, during the lowest period of Diao Li, Zhang Guorong often called to greet Diao Li and encourage her to continue to shine for the cause of Peking Opera, and sometimes Zhang Guorong came to the mainland to shoot dramas, no matter how far away he would always go to Beijing to visit Diao Li, and called Diao Li "mother" affectionately every time they met.
With the help of Zhang Guorong and many friends, Diao Li finally overcame all kinds of troubles in life and sang a play "Yangmen Female General" at the Chang'an Grand Theater in 2002, showing her good strength to the world.
Regrettably, shortly after Diao Li came out of the haze, Zhang Guorong jumped to his death in Hong Kong due to depression. When the news reached Beijing, Diao Li was sad and understood Zhang Guorong's heart in an instant.
She said to the staff on the side: "Zhang Guorong's requirements for himself are too high, if a person reaches a certain height and feels that he can no longer bring any help and value to others, he will feel that his life is meaningless." ”
In just one sentence, Zhang Guorong's bitterness was exhausted. Really people can't help but sigh a sentence, once thought that the story of the mountain flowing water meets the zhiyin only exists in fairy tales, who knows that between people, there is really a friendship called a teacher and a friend, the heart is a god.
Zhang Guorong had such a friend, and wanting to come to the Nine Springs was enough to comfort his life.
