I am who I am, fireworks of different colors. The sky and the sea are wide to make the strongest bubble... This is a chorus of "brother" Zhang Guorong's song "I".
The woman untied the neckline of the cheongsam, gently shook her waist, looked at the man sitting on the chair, the wavy curly hair lined her face, thick, Dan lips dripping, a pair of small dimples pocketed some oriental shyness and beauty, but the look was "smoke and beauty", inadvertently achieving fatal teasing and seduction. This is Ang Lee's "Color Ring". If this scene and this song are paired together, the beautiful women who are reminded of it will definitely have her, white light. Absolute Demon, White Light.
Thinking of her, first of all, I think of those songs like a spring afternoon, lazy, low, like exquisitely carved and polished jade, warm and appropriate, but comforting; partial and permeated with pungent wildness, like the long whip that is thrown out casually in the hand, and does not care about how the sound is, and whether it can be returned; such an erotic song is also interpreted like a calm river, broad and soft.
This is white light. The name Bai Guang, whose original name was Shi Yongfen, was one of the most famous movie stars and singers in the Shanghai Isolated Island period. If Zhou Xuan in the 1940s was a typical example of traditional Chinese women, gentle and idyllic, chuchu and pitiful; those pilgrims left white light with the opposite of her name, synonymous with drunken gold fans and wandering skeletons.
In 1948, Bai Guang starred in 8 films, and in 1949 it was 7, which is rare in ancient and modern China and abroad. The movies she starred in, "Slut's Heart", "A Generation of Demons", "Rose Blossom", and "Singing on a Rainy Night", we have not had the opportunity to see it, but some of the popular songs she sang are still familiar to us. Songs like "Without You", "False Canon", "Grape Wine", "Haunting Old Dreams", "Waiting for You to Return" have been interpreted by different singers in each era and are still sung on various shows. What many people don't know is that the original song is white light.
But anyone who has listened to the original singing of Bai Guang will find that the later learners still lack the "demon strength" of a generation of demons, whether it is Xu Xiaofeng, Ye Yuqing, Mei Yanfang, Teresa Teng, or Cai Qin, Feng Feifei, Fei Yuqing... White light or light or heavy, or put or received, whether it is virtual or real is just right, that kind of if it is left, the itch of the pinch, simply makes people comfortable to the point of indescribable. It is said that Chiang Kai-shek greatly admired the white light, and every year when he made a birthday, he had to hand-pick the white light to be present.
Guan Jinpeng chose bai guang's "Meet And Don't Hate Late" in "Long Hate Song", as if to imply that only white light can interpret the complete decadence in human nature to the extreme. According to Li Hanxiang's recollection, when he was a child, he inadvertently hummed the "False Canon" sung by Bai Guang, and as a result, he was beaten by his second uncle. This was the status quo at that time, and many "righteous gentlemen" could not help but feel the ape on the one hand, and on the other hand, they raised their faces to rebuke the "generation of demons"; the real white light was like a mang, piercing the mask of hypocrisy.
"False canon, false canon, your eyes have already slipped over, and slipped over, secretly looking at it non-stop; embarrassed, embarrassed, what is called embarrassment, if you want to love me, I want to love me, you will show it happily." Finally, he even laughed and teasedly narrated, "Why bother!" "If you think about it today, the movie star Zhou Xun has a little bit of following this predecessor.
The white light is like this, the enchanting sinking, even if it falls into the eighteenth layer of hell, there is a fierceness and style, so that the so-called "scripture" and "Tao" reveal their true faces. She is lonely in the noise, solemn in frivolity, seems to be indulged in lust, but what she pursues in her bones is a love, a confused and helpless feeling.
Some people have commented that the derailment charm of white light is not inferior to marlene Dietrich, a sexy woman from Germany to the United States, and her low, hoarse, sophisticated voice is completely comparable to france's natural singer Edie Piaf.
The magic of the white light is not simply due to her flesh, face or singing voice, it is said that her chest is a horse Pingchuan (the towering in the photo is lined), but the natural turmoil in her bones makes many people love and fear and resist.
A generation of demons, a generation of female spies? Let me do something for my country
It's a story that exists only in the legend, the guess or the people who love her, who hate her. In the song, on the screen and in life, White Light seems to be playing the role of a bad woman. The uneasiness of "The Wall" is in the room, the self-abandonment of "Slut's Heart", and the simply impenetrable rape, fornication, slut, and poison in "Blood Stained Begonia Red". In real life, people around her and even people who have only seen her will feel her frankness and boldness. It is said that when traveling with people, as long as they encounter expensive consumption, Bai Guang always rushes to pay, afraid that he has become a burden for others. Bao Fang, an old Hong Kong drama bone, recalled that among the female stars who have cooperated, Bai Guang is the most bold and chivalrous, and is very righteous. Li Xianglan also praised her in her autobiography "Half My Life" as "an honest and good person, docile and cheerful".
Bai Guang seems to be a simple person, but the legend around her has never been interrupted, because she was born into a Beiyang warlord family, went to Japan to study for two years when she was young, participated in the shooting of Japanese reactionary films, and later withdrew from the public eye under the fame of the popularity, went to the post-war Japan to open a nightclub, and actually survived (Bai Xianyong's "The Last Night of Jin Daban" is based on her), coupled with living with the Japanese secret agent Yama Jiaheng, these signs indicate her possible spy identity.
Kim Daeban, who has been brought to the stage and screen countless times
But beneath these surfaces, some people have raised another view, saying that she went to Japan to steal intelligence. The Japanese agent Yama Ka-hyung, who lived with her, was influenced by her, and because of his sympathy for China, he was also recruited back to China by the Japanese military court and sentenced to ten years in prison for "collaborating with the enemy and pro-China" and other crimes. This Yamagata was also Yoshiko Kawashima's first love. He also had an extraordinary relationship with masahiko Gan, the chairman of the "Manying", who was one of the main planners of the "Manchukuo". After the war, both Li Xianglan and Yoshiko Kawashima were put on the court-martial trial, and one was sent back to China and the other was shot. However, there is no record that Bai Guang was punished in any way after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, and she was still active in the entertainment circle of Shanghai in the 1940s. Most of the time she denies her identity as a spy, saying there are not so legendary stories. At one point, she seemed to miss a little, "Just let me do something for my motherland." This seems to constitute another kind of implication.
We are eager to explore the truth behind the fog of history, and we also lament that such a life is not worthy of youth.
In the 1930s and 1940s on the beach, Zhou Xuan was pampered by everyone, and Ruan Lingyu was far from her fate, because "people are fearful of words" drank and hated Huangquan Road, what kind of background, background and environment did the red white light have?
Born in 1921 in a military family, Bai Guang, who loved music and performance since he was a child, really stepped into the entertainment circle by participating in a "draft" activity similar to the current one, being selected by the Japanese to participate in the filming of "Oriental Peace Road", and later the film had no impact. But I met Yama Ieyasu, a Japanese who was in charge of the project. Yamagata was once Yoshiko Kawashima's first love, but this time he has a new affection, another actress who was chosen along with Shirako, and they developed a lover relationship. The actress, named Li Ming, is therefore taken care of at work.
What is even more strange and dramatic is that after Bai Guang deliberately went to Shanghai to visit her little sister Li Ming, during this period, after many grudges and grudges, gentle and tortuous, outsiders have never been able to penetrate and understand. In short, soon after, Li Ming married someone else, and Bai Guang openly lived with Shan Jiaheng. Whether it is a horizontal knife to win love, or another plan, it is still impossible to guess.
In this way, until 1943, Yama was recalled to Japan, and after returning to China, he was arrested and tried on more than ten counts, including treason, leaking secrets, violating military discipline, and drug abuse. One theory is that Yoshiko Kawashima, in revenge for her former lover Yamaya Yoshinori, told Hideki Tojo and his wife, and the other is the result of a struggle between the Japanese military and political circles. At this time, Bai Guang openly published an article entitled "I miss my husband", she said: "He has the bravery of a 'Spartan' warrior, but he is tamed like a kitten..." She also rushed to Japan and ran around for him. But she was just an obscure little woman, Shan Jiaheng's nameless mistress, so no one paid any attention to her. Bai Guang lived with Shan Jiaheng's mother, wife, and daughter for a while, but he still returned to China.
In fact, before Bai Guang met Shan Jiaheng, he had already married someone, and it was said that her husband was also engaged in music-related business, and I don't know why, after they gave birth to a pair of children, they divorced quickly. This love affair is rarely mentioned, and it is also vague to mention.
After Yama's death, Haku hikari married an American plane pilot and both settled in Tokyo, Japan, but soon divorced, and put a lot of energy and money into Hakumitsu (more than 20 court sessions alone). Bai Guang once sighed: "I am a person who has failed as a person, offended many friends, and married badly, along the way, I have never met a person who really loves me." ”
Bai Guang's legendary experience makes her feel that "people live a day to earn, do not do anything too much." Such a mind naturally brought into her songs and her plays, and Bai Guang did not have any preset position on any role, natural, sincere, and not critical. The reason why many female stars play bad women is that their self-consciousness is too high, unlike white light, and they have a detached position and persuasiveness.
A reporter once asked why white light is so endearing? She replied frankly, "Because I like people, I naturally love people." Bai Guang coldly saw the human feelings around her cold and warm, with a lazy sexiness, with a pride of contempt for hypocrisy, and in her way she was open and tolerant. Why is the bad woman she plays so charming? Why are her decadent, sinking songs also deeply rooted in people's hearts? Why is there so many bad women on the screen who are as debauched as carp across the river, and she is the only one who has become immortal? That's the answer to the mystery.
Li Bihua admires Bai Guang very much, appreciates her "great affection, dare to love and dare to hate, fast talk, fierce heart". "Heart-pounding"? Do you live up to your expectations? Perhaps, the temperament of the white light is the "bright spot" in Li Bihua's eyes!
Whenever people do not say anything about the human world, they are people who have nothing to do in the world
Bai Guang's last public appearance was at the RTHK "Top 10 Chinese Golden Melody Awards Ceremony" in 1995, and he and Xu Xiaofeng served as the guest of honor. The media commented that the seventy-four-year-old man "is still old and spicy, cultivated into a refined, and ghostly." ”
At this time, it has been more than 40 years since Bai Guang quit the show business in 1953, and there are many legends behind her, some say that she is crazy, some say that she is poor, and some say that she has long been gone. In fact, she first lived in seclusion in Hong Kong and then moved to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
"No matter how you live, you won't be happy." This woman who has read thousands of sails has her own perception of life, and because of this, she seems to have penetrated the Buddhist wisdom saying, "When people do not say the world, they are people who have nothing to do in the world." She can smoke in the spotlight and walk around, or she can be obscure and reclusive.
In 1959, she suffered from blood cancer, and then she had uterine cancer, and in 1999, intestinal cancer came to the door again, so twice and three times, she could actually die at the age of 78. Is there really such a tenacious life? I doubt the accuracy of this information, but I would rather believe that she can do such a miracle.
For a while, this bold, pungent, swaying woman sang, "I want you to be by my side, keeping the night until tomorrow." The night is long and long, the world is cold, only you can bring me a little warmth", just so quietly a person feels the cold of the world, the long night.
In 1969, he met Yan Long, a loyal film fan who was more than a decade younger than her. Yan Long was considerate and cared for her, and the white light that he thought was insulated from marriage in this life actually moved his heart. Although the two did not have a certificate, they looked like each other for nearly 30 years, others asked her why, her answer was also very white light characteristics, "Fate is coming, thousands of troops and horses can not stop it."
Bai Guang finally waited for her love, and when she was dying, she still held Yan Long's hand tightly. On the third day after she left, Yan Long helped her with the funeral. In order not to disturb others, the funeral was extremely low-key. Afterwards, this infatuated man built a "qin tomb" in Malaysia for his beloved wife, and under the epitaph was cast a row of black and white piano keys, and the top of the piano key was engraved with a line of staves of "Without You", if you pressed the keys on the stone level, there would be a white light "low, procrastinating, magnetic, provocative, lazy, weak, slightly bandit, carnal and lust coexisting" song, "Without you, how will the day be?" My heart is broken, and I can't do anything..."
In 2000, the February issue of the world-class adult magazine PLAYBOY selected nearly 100 Chinese and foreign sexy objects with the 20th century Chinese and foreign sexy red stars as the cover feature, and the white light was listed among them. Hong Kong also ranks white light as the 22nd star of the Avenue of Stars.
But none of this mattered to Bai Guang, as she sang, "Youth will never be reunited, the cape is gone, there is no trace, there is no news, the pomegranate is red, but it is the old dream of last night." "She is a well-deserved generation of demons, so that you can see and listen, but like a lotus flower." She is the white light, the most dazzling light in the world. She is Shi Yongfen, let me do something for my motherland.
