In the mainland film and television circles, at least forty or fifty popular stars have starred in song Meiling, the first lady of the Republic of China, among which the more famous ones are Wu Junmei, Yu Feihong, Gao Yuanyuan, Wu Zhiyuan, etc., all of which have been praised differently.
Liu Tao, the daughter-in-law of the nation, played Song Meiling in the popular TV series "Armageddon", but the audience was mixed.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > subtle and elegant Wu Junmei</h1>
Wu Junmei, an 18-year-old high school senior, made her first role in the movie "The Last Emperor". A year later, "The Last Emperor" won 9 awards at the Oscars, which not only made Wu Junmei famous, but also changed her life, making her a professional actor.
In 1997, Wu Junmei's version of Song Meiling in "The Song Family Dynasty", also known as "The Three Sisters of the Song Family", performed the characteristics of Song Meiling.
Wu Junmei, who plays Song Meiling three times, because she has the same experience of staying in the United States as Song Meiling, it is easier to show that Song Meiling has both the subtle elegance of Chinese women and the modern foreign atmosphere of Western openness and activity. Wu Junmei vividly showed the beauty of Song Meiling, who met Chiang Kai-shek for the first time, who loves heroes, and at the same time quietly examines them soberly.
Song Meiling in "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", compared with "The Three Sisters of the Song Family", has grown mature, has great power, is hot in The Chinese political arena, and has a high influence in the world. In order to play this role well, Wu Junmei pasted her home everywhere with photos of Song Meiling, and the role preparation was quite in place, fully showing the temperament of the middle-aged Song Meiling that integrated politics and beauty.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > youthful and beautiful high round</h1>
Gao Yuanyuan's impression on the audience is youth and liveliness, and the image of starring in idol dramas, youth dramas and urban dramas has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Gao Yuanyuan, who came back after childbirth, starred in the role of Song Meiling in "Glory and Dreams" with a strong star lineup, wearing a black cheongsam and combing Qi Bangs, Gao Yuanyuan, who has become a mother, gives people a mature, stable, atmospheric and simple feeling.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > temperament talented woman Yu Feihong</h1>
In 2016, Song Meiling of the TV series "Eastern Battlefield", Yu Feihong's appearance and performance were recognized by most of the audience.
Even Chiang Kai-shek's daughter-in-law, Chiang Fang-liang, believes that Yu Feihong's Soong Mei-ling style is "the most similar in temperament."
Yu Feihong, a famous Actor and Director in China who graduated from the Acting Department of the Beijing Film Academy, has also studied in the United States and lived in the United States. When experiencing the role of Song Meiling, she consulted a large number of audio and video materials. She found that Song Meiling's pronunciation was very personal when speaking in English, so she imitated it and was recognized by the audience. The performance of "Talented Girl" actor Yu Feihong highlights Song Meiling's solemn composure and talent.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Wu Zhiyuan in the 1991 film version of Armageddon</h1>
The crew of the 1991 version of the movie "Armageddon" was very picky in selecting special actors, selecting more than twenty people, and finally selected Wu Zhiyuan to play Song Meiling.
Wu Zhiyuan, born in 1955, is a professor at the School of Film and Television Arts of Nanjing University of the Arts and a national first-class actor. Song Meiling, who starred in the movie "Armageddon" 1, 2 and 3 in 1991 and 1992, received unanimous praise, and then starred in the role of Song Meiling many times in film and television dramas such as "The Battle of Eastern Henan", "Defense War of Central China", "Zhang Xueliang's Biography", "The Decisive Battle of Northern Jiangsu" and so on.
Song Meiling in the movie "Armageddon", graceful and luxurious, fell generously. Unlike Liu Tao's performance of Song Meiling's little bird of warmth and thoughtfulness, Wu Zhiyuan's version of Song Meiling is more like Chiang Kai-shek's partner, and his analysis of the current situation and his comments on Chiang Kai-shek's handling of people are just right, and chiang kai-shek in the play is therefore also very dependent on the wife who can go to the United States to win huge amounts of foreign aid and the wife who is sincere and capable of giving him advice in his difficult and difficult moments. This kind of dependence is beyond the general marital feelings, and it is more in line with the identity of the two people and the situation they were in at that time. In the classic movie version of "Armageddon", Wu Zhiyuan's role of Song Meiling is not large, but it leaves a deep impression.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > liu tao, the daughter-in-law of the national</h1>
The most controversial of the most recent roles as Song Meiling is Liu Tao of the hit TV series "Armageddon".
Born in 1978 in Nanchang, Jiangxi Province, Liu Tao is a very good actor. Gao was selected into the Nanjing Military Region Cultural and Labor Troupe, liu Tao, who served as a literary and artistic soldier for three years, the study and performance of sketches, dances, songs and performances laid a good foundation for her future career, Liu Tao, who graduated from the law department of Guangdong University of Foreign Studies and Business, starred in the sitcom "Foreign Daughter-in-law Local Lang" in 2000 and entered the show business circle. In 2013, she won the Best Performing Arts Actress Award at the 10th Golden Eagle Television Arts Festival and the Audience's Favorite TV Drama Actress Award at the 27th China Television Golden Eagle Awards. In 2015, she starred in Mi Shu in "The Legend of Mi Yue", and won the Best Supporting Actress Award at the 22nd Shanghai TV Festival Magnolia Award and the Most Popular Actress Award at the 11th China Television Golden Eagle TV Arts Festival. In 2020, he joined Ali Live with the flower name "Liu Yidao", selling 6 million concubines laughing lychees in one night, with a transaction volume of 148 million yuan in 4 hours.
Liu Tao, who has a smooth career, has participated in a number of urban light comedies, and the song "Brave Love" in his personal music album won the Golden Melody Award in the 17th Global Chinese Chart. Since 2017, it has been on the stage of CCTV Spring Festival Gala for four consecutive years.
In 2008, shortly after Liu Tao's marriage, her husband's business failed and he owed a huge amount of money. Liu Tao did not give up, spent four years, paid off the arrears of 400 million yuan for her husband, and won the title of "National Virtuous Wife" in real life.
The role of Song Meiling in "Armageddon" is a new challenge for Liu Tao.
Like Liu Tao's evaluation Liu Tao performed the period of the Armageddon and Chiang Kai-shek husband and wife deep affection, the warm pulse of the husband, and the psychology of being proud of the husband, better than Yu Feihong.
Dislike Liu Tao audience, said that Liu Tao at most the first lady Song Meiling performed the taste of "national daughter-in-law", the sharp language of the audience also spit Liu Tao: "the eyes are not strong enough, the steps are not calm enough, the language is not high enough, the heart is not strong enough", there is no politician's momentum, diplomat temperament, and the demeanor of the most elegant celebrity in the Republic of China, and some sharply say that the role played by Liu Tao is too stingy.
In the camps on both sides of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, except for President Zhu, who was a little older, the leaders, leaders, and commanders and fighters of the Communist Party were generally relatively young. Many of the commanders and division commanders during the Armageddon period were thirty or forty years old. On the Part of the Kuomintang, especially in the local miscellaneous armies, there are many old and faint," which is often contrasted in earlier films and television films such as "Southern Expedition and Northern War" and "Battle of Shanghai".
In the TV series "Armageddon", Tang Guoqiang, who is nearly seventy years old, led a group of special actors to play the leaders in their prime, and the leader who played the prime-age leader was played by the first lady in his early fifties, but it was Liu Tao, a handsome "national daughter-in-law" born in 1978 and 43 years old, who played the role of the first lady in his early fifties.
Most of the popular liu tao performances are urban light comedies. There are also many performances with historical themes, but most of them are talented and beautiful. Later, he frequently appeared in the entertainment programs of major television stations, giving the impression of a wide audience as an entertainment traffic star. Many viewers love to watch Liu Tao and think that Liu Tao's good performance is because Liu Tao is beautiful. It is different from the strength and acting school of Wang Jinsong, who played Chiang Kai-shek and was well received in "Armageddon". This may also be one of the reasons.
The audience of urban pop dramas such as urban romance and talented women likes the emotional stories of parents who are short, chai rice oil and salt, which are closely related to the daily lives of ordinary people, just like popular culture fast food, which looks relaxed and happy, without bothering to think. The huge military history theme of "The Great Armageddon" does not have any revolutionary history accumulation and military history hobbies, and many people cannot understand it. Many people are not interested in the strategic guidance of the headquarters of the Kuomintang and the Communists, the platooning of the generals of the two sides, the intrigues and battles, and the bloody fighting of the frontline soldiers and ordinary people. In other words, the audience overlap between urban romance dramas and military theme dramas is not high, which may also be one of the reasons why Liu Tao, the popular "national daughter-in-law" of urban romance dramas, is not too popular with military audiences.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Song Meiling, the first lady of the Republic of China</h1>
The real Song Meiling is indeed a very legendary figure, not only a versatile and elegant Republic of China celebrity, but also a world-famous politician and diplomat.
Song Meiling, the second eldest of the "Three Sisters of the Song Family", was born in Pudong, Shanghai in 1897, a native of Wenchang, Hainan.
Song Meiling learned English at home at an early age. In 1910, Soong Mei-ling followed her second sister, Soong Ching-ling, who later became Dr. Sun Yat-sen's wife, to the United States to attend Wellesley Women's University in Massachusetts.
This is an internationally renowned university, the famous writer Bing xin, later the US Secretary of State Albright, Clinton's wife Hillary Clinton and many other celebrities, are Song Meiling alumni.
The experience of studying not only allowed Song Meiling to speak fluent English, which is also admired by Americans, but also allowed Song Meiling to completely Westernize her thinking and speech and demeanor.
In 1922, in Sun Yat-sen's apartment in Shanghai, at a party held by his brother Soong Ziwen, Chiang Kai-shek fell in love with the temperamental Soong Mei-ling at first sight and began to pursue it desperately, but was resolutely opposed by Soong Ching-ling.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek, who led the Northern Expeditionary Army into Shanghai, launched another offensive against Soong Mei Ling. With the persuasion and help of her eldest sister, Song Xialing, Song Meiling married Chiang Kai-shek. The witness is Cai Yuanpei.
In that year, Soong Mei-ling and Chiang Kai-shek were simultaneously elected "Time Magazine's Person of the Year".
In 1936, Song Meiling became the secretary general of the Aviation Committee, and not only spent a lot of energy studying aviation theory and aircraft design, but also gave full play to his advantages in purchasing aircraft and forming an air force.
During the "Xi'an Incident," Chiang Kai-shek was detained by Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, and Song Meiling, regardless of her personal safety, mediated everywhere and actively rescued him, which not only showed his strong political ability, but also touched Chiang Kai-shek, who was a "husband and wife in distress."
When the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression broke out in 1937, Chiang Kai-shek instructed Soong Mei-ling to take control of the Air Force.
Song Meiling invited American General Chennault to Come to China and form the "Flying Tigers". With Chennault's help, Song Meiling became the titular commander-in-chief of the Chinese Air Force and was named the "Mother of the Chinese Air Force." ”
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, First Lady Song Meiling not only organized women throughout the country to play a great role in soliciting and comforting labor, but also became the chief communicator of China's foreign propaganda. During her time in the United States, Soong Mei-ling met with President Roosevelt, held a press conference, and gave speeches in fluent English and the charm of the First Lady of China, winning a lot of aid for the Chinese War of Resistance in the United States.
When the Kuomintang-Communist Civil War broke out, Soong Mei-ling went to the United States again, hoping to recreate the grand situation of visiting the United States that year, but unfortunately, due to the deterioration of the Kuomintang's rule in the Chinese mainland, he was snubbed by President Truman and the AMERICAN political circles.
After arriving in Taiwan, Song Meiling grasped a lot of power, actively traveled back and forth between Taiwan and the United States, and devoted a lot of energy to "counter-attacking the mainland" in order to win the support of the United States.
After Chiang Kai-shek's death, Soong Mei-ling's political power was gradually weakened.
The KMT elected Chiang Ching-kuo as the chairman of the KMT, and Song Meiling, who was sidelined in power, went to the United States to live in seclusion and no longer cared about politics.
In 2003, Song Meiling died in her apartment in the United States at the age of 106.
Her eldest sister, Song Qingling, died at the age of 84, and her second sister, Song Qingling, died at the age of 88.
Song Meiling, who underwent major surgery for breast cancer at the age of 70, became a centenarian who died of life.
The versatile Song Meiling combines beauty, wealth, power, honor and talent.
Song Meiling is not only very fluent in English, but also speaks six Chinese.
Although her thinking and lifestyle are very Westernized, her research and attainment of traditional Chinese culture is also quite profound. Not only is the calligraphy good, but the Chinese painting is also excellent, it can be said that the piano, chess, books, paintings are proficient, and politics, economy, and cultural diplomacy are omnipotent.
