When it comes to the roles in film and television dramas with historical themes, we will often see the images of those great people, such as Chairman Mao, Premier Zhou, and Zhu De, who bowed down and composed an admirable history for the founding of New China.
So Gu Yue, Tang Guoqiang, who played Chairman Mao, Wang Tiecheng, who played Premier Zhou, Wang Wufu, who played Zhu De, and Ren Shan, became special actors who played great people in film and television dramas.
The actor I want to talk about today is also a special actor, who is well known to the audience for playing Deng Xiaoping, and also won the honor of the best actor of the 10th Golden Rooster Awards for this role, and it is even more because of this role that he became famous in one fell swoop, he is the actor Lu Qi.
How did he get on the path of art? I guess many friends don't know?
Lu Qi was born in the current Chongqing City, he graduated from middle school in 1970, just in time to catch up with the army's literary and artistic troupe to recruit local literary and artistic soldiers, he secretly signed up with his family, did not expect to be admitted, so he became a soldier, in the army he worked as a newspaper announcer, pulled erhu, acted in operas, and danced.
In 1974, he was admitted to the Sichuan Provincial People's Art Theater as an actor, during which he became the backbone of the troupe, and in 1979, he was first electrocuted in the snow of the movie Mountain City, in which he played a guard Xiao Yan next to Premier Zhou.
In 1995, he was transferred to the Bayi Film Studio, which opened the peak of his acting career, in 1998, when the Guangxi Film Studio was preparing to shoot the film Baise Uprising, there was a great man Deng Xiaoping in the play, but the candidate for this role was delayed, and the director Chen Jialin was anxious, so he sent an invitation letter to major theater troupes across the country, when Lu Qi had just finished playing the role of Sun Yat-sen.
Director Chen Jialin intended to invite him to play the role of Deng Xiaoping, but the people in the crew were not optimistic, and Chen Jialin gave the opinion that his temperament and size and the personality of the same Sichuanese would be very good to enter the role.
After much deliberation, director Chen Jialin let him try on makeup, and took the good photos to the case of Wang Zhen, who was vice president of the state at the time (he was the general adviser of the film at the time), and said: Very much like Oh, so Lu Qi naturally starred in the role of Deng Xiaoping.
In the years that followed, he successively starred in dramas such as movies out of the mountains, serial dramas changing the human world, Deng Xiaoping, and crossing the Yalu River.
Lu Qi used his tireless pursuit to portray Deng Xiaoping's meticulous command art in the war years, as well as the bold spirit of reform and opening up in the ordinary era.
Lu Qi once said that it is far from enough to shape the image of Deng Xiaoping and only pay attention to speech and demeanor, but to fundamentally grasp the core soul and god of Deng Xiaoping as a figure, that is, the overall internal and external temperament of Deng Xiaoping as a great man, and the overall internal temperament of that great man is precisely unique to Deng Xiaoping.
It seems that Luci's analysis of the character and his admiration for the great man show the truth in his words.
I hope that this elderly man, in good health, will bring us more wonderful performances in the days to come!
Looking forward to your review!
