That year, Zhang Yimou filmed "Red Sorghum", the original heroine was Shi Ke, who was fat and fat, but Gong Li also cared about this role for ten minutes, Zhang Yimou let her go to the hotel to audition, after the end, Zhang Yimou asked the camera Gu Changwei's opinion, he looked at Zhang Yimou and said: "Or Gong Li is more appropriate." ”
Zhang Yimou nodded satisfactorily, and finally Shi Ke's heroine was taken down and changed to Gong Li, with this play, Gong Li opened her own road to the film.
Zhang Yimou is one of the best directors in the past thirty years, in 1986, the 36-year-old Zhang Yimou debuted on the screen, starred in "Old Well", won three film emperor trophies in one fell swoop, the limelight was the same, and Zhang Yimou, who included the Hundred Flowers Film Emperor, the Golden Rooster Film Emperor, and the Tokyo Film Festival Film Emperor, was full of enthusiasm.
In 1987, Zhang Yimou accidentally saw mo Yan's novel "Red Sorghum Family", he was deeply attracted by the storyline inside, so he spent 800 yuan to buy the copyright of the film adaptation from Mo Yan, and he vowed to make a big work.
The theme of the movie has been determined, first of all, it is necessary to cast, which is related to the success or failure of the movie, the choice of male and female protagonists, Zhang Yimou hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to let Jiang Wen play the role of the male protagonist "My Grandfather", but the role of the heroine "Jiu'er" was delayed in finding a suitable candidate.
Among all the candidates for "Jiu'er", Zhang Yimou felt that Shi Ke's conditions were the best, and in Mo Yan's novel, "Jiu'er" was a strong and plump figure, and Shi Ke's appearance was very consistent.
Born in an ordinary family in Hubei, Shi Ke grew up active, ice and snow smart, proficient in singing and dancing, and also very talented in art.
She is a student of the 85th grade of Chinese opera, although she studied acting, but she liked to sing since she was a child, she was bent on entering the Wuhan Conservatory of Music, but she did not expect to be admitted for three consecutive years, and later saw that Chinese opera was enrolling, so she mistakenly hit and bumped into the industry of performance.
Her appearance conditions are particularly outstanding, during the Chinese opera, she performed well, deeply liked by the teacher, she and her classmates Gong Li, Jin Lili, Wu Yujuan, Chen Wei, and called the 85-level "five golden flowers" of the Chinese opera.
As an actress, Shi Ke's appearance has been controversial, although she is beautiful, but her beauty is different from the traditional Chinese sense of aesthetics. Large eyes, thick lips, dark skin, and a long curly hair gave the whole a kind of Western wild and unrestrained beauty, and she was also known as China's "gypsy girl" at that time.
At that time, Shi Ke was still a sophomore student, although the appearance conditions were good, but there was no experience in shooting movies, which made Director Zhang hesitate, so he arranged for Shi Ke to come to the crew to audition, while looking for new actors, and later someone recommended Shi Ke's classmate Gong Li to the crew.
In this way, the two began the heroine of "Red Sorghum", the crew let the two wear the same costumes and hairstyle audition, Zhang Yimou still couldn't make up his mind, and then Gong Li went to the hotel to try a play, which made Zhang Yimou recognize her, and finally finalized Gong Li after consulting with the photographer Gu Changwei.
Zhang Yimou said: "Gong Li has more taste under the lens, belongs to the natural actor, and God appreciates rice and eats." ”
Although Gong Li's facial features are not as three-dimensional as Shi Ke's, her eyes and performance are very special, as if there is a magic power that makes people want to stop.
After this "changing corners" storm came out, Zhang Yimou personally appeased Shi Ke, he said: "You are still young, only a sophomore, we watched your and Gong Li's performance, or think she is more suitable, but don't be discouraged, when you graduate, we have a lot of opportunities to cooperate." ”
Hearing the cooked duck flying away, Shi Ke was also very angry, and she was also very dismissive of Gong Li's beard cutting behavior, she tore the script to pieces in a rage, and since then she has not interacted with Gong Li, and has only been reconciled in recent years.
In this way, Shi Ke missed this movie, but also missed the opportunity to become popular, and Gong Li became popular because of this, under the performance of Gong Li and Jiang Wen, "Red Sorghum" box office reputation double harvest, popularity is very hot, starring Gong Li and director Zhang Yimou have become hot stars.
Later Gong Li's resources became better and better, becoming Zhang Yimou's "royal heroine", and later the two also had feelings, Zhang Yimou and his wife Xiao Hua showdown, the two parted ways, but Zhang Yimou did not marry Gong Li, after waiting for 8 years, Gong Li was discouraged, left Zhang Yimou, turned around and married the rich businessman Huang Hexiang, unfortunately, this relationship did not last long and divorced.
Later, Gong Li met michelle 70 years old, he fell in love with Gong Li at first sight, proposed to her, Gong Li was also touched by Michelle's sincerity and agreed to his marriage proposal.
Because Shi Ke was too mature, the drama path was restricted, and many directors turned her away because her appearance was too "Westernized", and Shi Ke complained: "At that time, I mainly played mature female roles, and the role of a young girl never let me play." ”
Although the drama road is narrow, she did not give up, and later she was favored by director Zhao Baogang, and Wang Zhiwen and Jiang Shan cooperated with "Addiction", because the plot is close to life, this TV series has become a hit drama, and Shi Ke, who plays "Han Liting" in the play, is also well known to the public.
Later, he successively starred in works such as "Red Lady", "Iron Pear Blossom", "Niang Dao", generally playing the role of mother, and in the new drama "Shangyang Fu", there is also Shi Ke's figure.
She has been humble and low-key in the entertainment industry, silently for her own actor dream strivers, although the popularity is not as good as Gong Li, but also a double harvest of career love, in 2000, Shi Ke married a Swiss rich man, gave birth to two handsome sons, and enjoyed a happy marriage.
The casting experience of the yin and yang in that year was also a fate, and now the 55-year-old Shi Ke has been active in the film and television circle, interpreting different characters with excellent acting skills.
Life is like this, there are gains and losses, mentality determines everything, keep a normal heart, one day will bloom.
For Shi Ke and Zhang Ziyi, who do you think is more beautiful?
