In 1990, Li Xuejian starred in the movie "Jiao Yulu", but was strongly opposed by Jiao Yulu's wife: I will never allow him to play Jiao Yulu, Li Xuejian: Director, I quit the role.
Before starring in the movie "Jiao Yulu", Li Xuejian had just finished filming "Longing", in which he played the big brother Song Dacheng next door, but before "Longing" could be broadcast, he was selected by director Wang Jixing to play the protagonist Jiao Yulu in "Jiao Yulu".
The film mainly tells the story of Jiao Yulu's strong perseverance and fiery feelings during his work in Lankao, leading the cadres and masses of the county to govern the "three harms", fighting in the sky and the earth, and shaking people's hearts.
After being selected, in order to better shape the image of Jiao Yulu, a servant of the people, Li Xuejian deliberately went to visit Jiao Yulu's wife Xu Junya, but he did not expect that this would become the most embarrassing visit in his life.
After seeing Xu Junya, Li Xuejian was poured a basin of cold water on the spot: You are not only short, but also white and fat, and it does not conform to the image of my husband Jiao Yulu at all, how can I believe that you can play him well?
This is because Li Xuejian at that time had just finished acting in song Dacheng in the TV series "Longing", and his image had not yet been converted from the role.
What Li Xuejian did not expect was that Xu Junya turned to Wang Jixing, the director of "Jiao Yulu", and strongly opposed letting Li Xuejian play Jiao Yulu.
After hearing this news, Li Xuejian was also discouraged in his heart: even Aunt Xu did not approve, how could I play such an important role?
So he found Wang Jixing: Director, or I will quit the role.
After knowing the origin of the matter, Wang Jixing told Li Xuejian: Short, I can think of a way, fat, you find a way to solve it yourself, this role is none other than you, you have to believe in yourself, but also believe in my vision.
Under the encouragement of director Wang Jixing, Li Xuejian had a little confidence, in order to create the role of Jiao Yulu, Li Xuejian did not stay for a moment, and rushed to Lankao overnight to experience life.
During the day, he went to the desert to bask in the sun, dealing with the villagers, and when it was time to eat, in order to lose weight, he not only eliminated meat, but also did not eat rice, only drank cabbage soup.
Wait until the evening to continue to study the role, really hungry can't stand it, just sniff a few melon seeds.
In this way, Li Xuejian, with tenacious perseverance, lost more than 20 pounds in a month, during which time Li Xuejian not only read all the books related to Jiao Yulu, but also asked the local old people about his deeds.
But the more he went deeper, the more bottomless Li Xuejian became in his heart, and he was afraid of missing some details and ending up playing this drama.
So before the film was about to start, Li Xuejian went to visit Jiao Yulu's widow Xu Junya again.
When Xu Junya saw Li Xuejian, she felt very sad and told him: Acting is small, the body is important, don't toss the body bad.
Because Li Xuejian, who was standing in front of Xu Junya at that time, had already judged the two of them before, in addition to being black and thin, there was also a sense of hunger in his eyes, which was particularly in line with Jiao Yulu's image.
During the shooting, Li Xuejian had to ponder an expression and an action for a long time, and truly expressed Jiao Yulu's spirit of serving the people wholeheartedly.
The scene in the film where Jiao Yulu is seriously ill is shaped by Li Xuejian hoeing for several days and nights, and then staying up for this night continuously.
That year, Li Xuejian won the golden rooster and hundred flowers with a "Jiao Yulu", but when he stood on the podium, he felt very ashamed.
Then he said something heartfelt, setting up a benchmark for actors: bitterness and tiredness, let a good person Jiao Yulu suffer, fame and profit, let a silly boy Li Xuejian get it.
Also in this year, with the popularity of "Longing", Li Xuejian won the Feitian Award for Best Supporting Actor and the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor.
Two consecutive masterpieces have made the 36-year-old Li Xuejian popular all over the country, and a really good actor has been well known to everyone.
Later, Li Xuejian starred in the supporting role "Six Uncles" in the movie "Shake Ah Shake, Shake to Grandma Bridge" directed by Zhang Yimou, and played Song Jiang in "Water Margin"...
But in 2000, Li Xuejian was diagnosed with nasopharyngeal cancer while filming, and in order to treat his illness, he had to temporarily stop working.
Two years later, Li Xuejian recovered from his illness and came back, and successively dedicated many works to the audience, such as "Hey, Old Man", "Young Marshal", etc., and the roles he played were all vivid.
Since his debut for more than 40 years, Li Xuejian has always been a low-key person, down-to-earth acting, is an artist with both virtue and art in the impetuous entertainment circle, he has always advocated virtue and art, persistent pursuit, and formed a performance style of "subtlety, sincerity, thickness and simplicity".
There are benchmarks in all walks of life, and Teacher Li Xuejian is the benchmark of actors, and there are many so-called "old drama bones" in the entertainment industry, but Teacher Li Xuejian is a well-deserved old drama bone.
In "The Young Marshal", Zhang Zuolin, who he played, is definitely the most wonderful role in the whole play, so that after he went offline, many viewers had the idea of abandoning the play.
Debuted more than 40 years ago, taking 33 film emperors, Li Xuejian, an old drama bone, left countless small fresh meats speechless and ashamed of themselves.
So, do you like the character created by Teacher Li Xuejian the most?
