In the 1980s and 1990s, it was indeed a peak period in the development of China's film and television industry, during which many young and excellent actresses emerged. Just to say that there are many popular film and television actors who have come out of the Zhejiang Xiaobaihuayue Opera Troupe, such as Tao Huimin and He Saifei, who are all very familiar with us, and Li Yongyong, whom we will talk about today.
Speaking of which, Li Yongyong is actually a Vietnamese opera actor who became famous earlier than Tao Huimin and He Saifei. In 1984, the Yue opera artwork "Five Daughters Baishou" filmed by Changchun Film Studio was released, which immediately caused a huge sensation. Several young Yue opera actors in the film, such as Fang Xuewen, Mao Weitao, He Ying, He Saifei, Tao Huimin, etc., have also attracted the attention of the audience and many directors in the film industry.
But as early as 1982, a Yue opera art film starring Li Yongyong, "Flower Candle Tears", had already met with the audience. Li Yongyong played the heroine Bai Yufeng in the film. When the stills of the movie "Flower Candle Tears" were published in the film magazines at that time, the young Li Yongyong's beautiful countenance and exquisite facial features attracted the attention of many young people. As a result, she became a well-known little Flower Dan at that time, and became a very sought-after wall calendar beauty at that time, and many people can see her beautiful figure on the wall calendar.
In 1986, Bei film studio planned to put one of the "four famous works" "Dream of the Red Chamber" on the screen, the cast of actors is very strong, almost bringing together the most famous young actors at that time, such as Liu Xiaoqing, Li Xiuming, Fu Yiwei, etc., in addition, several young Yue opera actors, also selected together, into the crew, they are - Tao Huimin who played Lin Daiyu, He Saifei who played Miaoyu, and Li Yongyong who played Qingwen.
Among the three of them, Li Yongyong has the richest film and television performance experience, following the starring role in "Flower Candle Tears", she also participated in the filming of films such as "Dream Chaser" and "The Case Is Not Over", which is already a rising star in the film industry.
Li Yongyong played Qingwen in the 89 version of the series of movies "Dream of the Red Chamber" (the film took three years to produce and was released in 1989), with a beautiful appearance and a dexterous personality, which left a very deep impression on the audience. In particular, the scene of "Qingwen Supplementing Qiu" in the film can be said to be very touching, and has become a very classic segment in the 89th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
After filming the film version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Tao Huimin and He Saifei's acting path has been well developed, Tao Huimin became popular for starring in the TV series "Yang Naiwu and The Little Cabbage", and He Saifei became famous for having the honor to participate in the films of famous directors such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, especially after starring in the TV series "The Gate of the Mansion", which made He Saifei a popular star.
Only Li Yongyong, the development seems to be slower. Because it is reasonable to say that she could have been like Tao Huimin, He Saifei and others, with the influence of the film version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" to make her career further. However, during the rising period of her acting career, she chose to go to Guangzhou to develop. And it is also in the past few years that she ran to Guangzhou, China's film and television industry has undergone great changes.
By the time she returned to Beijing from Guangzhou, in fact, she had really missed the best golden age for a young actress, at least as a beautiful actress, her biggest advantage was no longer obvious. Therefore, she does not have many opportunities to get, and she can only play some supporting roles that are no longer young. When she first developed from Guangzhou to Beijing, she did not even have a fixed residence, and could only rent a room in a hotel not far from the North Film Studio, but she did not expect to encounter thieves and loot her only little bit of disk, which was undoubtedly worse for her at that time, extremely embarrassing.
The audience noticed her again, it was in Hu Jun's version of "Tianlong Babu", she played the role of Ruan Xingzhu. Speaking of which, she can get this role, and she also has a little relationship with He Saifei. Originally, the cast list of "Tianlong Eight Parts" has been determined, and there is no Li Yongyong. Moreover, the character of Ruan Xingzhu was originally scheduled to be Shi Lan. However, because He Saifei's harvest from filming was suddenly injured and he could not take over the role of "Tianlong Babu", the crew changed Shi Lan to Ye Erniang's actor, and gave Ruan Xingzhu's performance task to Li Yongyong.
Although this version of "Tianlong Babu" is not the best version, the cast is strong enough to bring together Hu Jun, Lin Zhiying, Liu Yifei, Liu Tao, Chen Hao, etc., and some actors who are no longer young, such as Wang Luyao and Li Yongyong, return to the audience's sight again.
"Tianlong Babu" is undoubtedly a new starting point for Li Yongyong, after which she successively took over film and television dramas such as "The Legendary Cricket Prime Minister of the Southern Song Dynasty" and "Double Marriage Doubt", but it seems that since 2006, she has disappeared from the screen again.
Li Yongyong once said that she was a "dreamer" and wrote an article saying that her biggest dream was to act for a lifetime. And she hopes that she can become a great artist like Qin Yi. But how easy is it to become a great artist like Qin Yi? In addition to the necessary personal cultivation, there must be a large number of classic works of art presented to the audience. Obviously, in this regard, Li Yongyong still has a relatively distant gap to make up. Including the works of Tao Huimin and He Saifei, who debuted at about the same time as her, they all seem to have more than her. Therefore, Li Yongyong must work harder.
Of course, it is always good for a person to have a dream, but the most important thing is to turn the dream into action, so that it is possible to realize his artistic dream. In fact, Li Yongyong has an innate condition for being an actor, with a better appearance, as long as he is more honed in acting skills, I think the opportunity is not completely absent. But after playing "disappear" again and again, how can you achieve your dreams? And now the film and television circle is changing so quickly, if no work comes out, the audience will soon forget you.
It is said that Li Yongyong now lives in Beijing and has no worries about food and clothing. But I don't know if this beautiful actress who once played Qingwen in the 89 version of the movie "Dream of the Red Chamber" and Ruan Xingzhu in Hu Jun's version of "Tianlong Babu" still remembers her original dream? As an actor who is looking forward to becoming an "artist like Qin Yi", is he really willing to die up? Of course, perhaps Li Yongyong is stepping up his studies and preparing for the momentum. If so, if the original dream is still there, then we look forward to her rise again.
