To say which character in the volunteer hero group portrait in "Chosin Lake" is the most brilliant, Lei Suisheng, the platoon leader played by Hu Jun, may win the highest number of votes.
Hu Jun, who has played a tough guy all his life, has achieved a self-breakthrough this time, and successfully created the image of a volunteer veteran in a more kind and grounded way, the first half is both cute and cute, contributing a lot of laughs, but the final sacrifice is extremely tragic, contributing a lot of tears, which is impressive.
The name Lei Suisheng does not appear much in the film, because in most cases, everyone calls him "Lei Gong" and "Lei Dad".
Lei Gong is the 17th soldier of the seventh interspersed company in the film, that is, he has been there since the hero company. As the most senior soldier of the Seventh Company, he fought all the way from the Battle of Huaihai, and it can be said that he has experienced the baptism of countless guns and bullets, so his combat experience is extremely rich, and he has also trained a unique artillery technique.
This is also why, at the beginning, Wu Qianli, played by Wu Jing, wanted to hand over Wu Wanli, the younger brother played by Yi Qianxi, to Lei Gong and instructed him to teach Wu Wanli "how to live", because he knew very well that among the soldiers of the Seventh Company, Lei Gong was the one who knew the best way to survive on the battlefield. Moreover, because of his age and deep qualifications, Lei Gong regarded the soldiers of the Seventh Company as his own children, although sometimes it was inevitable that there was a bit of "fatherly taste", but he also loved everyone and was a well-known calf protector.
However, Lei Gong is not a kind father's personality, but he is a bit confused in life, with humor cells, so there are many funny scenes. It is through various details that the film makes the character image of Lei Gong more intimate and vivid.
For example, on the train to North Korea, Wanli asked Lei Gong for a gun, and Lei Gong, who was asleep, was awakened, shouted "Open the meal", and very unfortunately hit the upper bunk bed.
For example, Wanli asked Lei Gong for a bullet, and Lei Gong deceived him and gave him a bullet casing.
Yu Congrong teased Wanli, saying that Lei Gong's left ear was deaf to the cannon and could not hear, Wanli ran to Lei Gong's ear to scold him, but in fact, Lei Gong was not good in the other ear, and all the scolding was heard.
There is also Lei Gong's small horn hearing aid, which hangs up when a war is fought, and the comedy effect is full of ~~
When these life-rich details are accumulated little by little, Lei Gong's image is more vivid and plump, and the audience likes this role more and more.
Therefore, Lei Gong's final sacrifice seems so tragic and so unbearable.
The scene of Lei Gong's sacrifice, the film also uses a strong and colorful paragraph to tell.
In order not to be bombarded by enemy aircraft, Lei Gong put the marker shells thrown by the enemy on the car, drove the car to the enemy camp, and finally was hit by shells.
When dying, Lei Gong did not say some words of national righteousness like a typical hero, but like an ordinary person, a simple sentence of "hurt me to death" can resonate with all audiences.
Another line, "Don't leave me here alone," is enough to bring tears to one's eyes. Lei Gong is a veteran of overdue service, why not retire, the movie also has a faint hint, his hometown in Shandong has no relatives, after staying in the army for so long, he has taken the Seventh Company as his own, and his comrades-in-arms are his only relatives. Therefore, when Wu Qianli was planning the house he wanted to build, he also left one room for Lei Gong, thinking that after the battle was over, he could let Lei Gong live with them.
With a beautiful vision of the future on the battlefield, but finally sacrificed his precious life for the noble faith, and died in a foreign country, such a great sacrifice is really revered. Lei Gong's "Yimeng Mountain Minor" hummed before his death was another emotional crit for the audience.
Hu Jun's performance this time also made great contributions to shaping the role of Lei Gong. He gave up the noble, majestic, and "divine" side of playing various heroes and good men before, but did the opposite, portraying the cute, plain, and "human" side of Lei Gong, and the performance state was relaxed and natural. He also specifically went to learn Lei Gong's Shandong accent and "Yimeng Mountain Minor", and Lei Gong's pipe made of shell shells was also Hu Jun's creativity.
Hu Jun's father, the singer Hu Baoshan, also participated in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, and also made a third-class meritorious service; as a child born and raised in the army compound, Hu Jun himself has a military complex, and his father's experience should also have special significance and help for his participation in "Chosin Lake" this time.
Speaking of which, Hu Jun, who comes from an acting family, can be said to have a smooth career development. Hu Jun's father, Hu Baoshan, once wrote "I Love This Blue Ocean", and his uncle was the more famous singer Hu Songhua. However, Hu Jun's talent is not pointed at vocal music, he has been very resistant to singing since he was a child, but he is still more interested in performance, so he was naturally admitted to The Chinese Opera, and after graduation, he was also smoothly assigned to renyi.
Hu Jun is known as the most A actor in the show business circle, the reason why he says this is because he is tall, although his appearance is not handsome, but full of masculinity, and his overall temperament is very mature and tough. Therefore, most of the roles he plays are heroes, heroes, good men, soldiers, etc. with remarkable masculinity, such as Xiang Yu, Zhang Xueliang, Kublai Khan, Qi Jiguang, Fu Cha, etc., even if it is "Lan Yu" that makes him popular, he is also full of temperament in it, making people feel very secure.
Of course, Hu Jun's most well-known and most successful character still belongs to Qiao Fengqiao in Zhang Jizhong's version of "Tianlong Babu".
It is said that Hu Jun initially asked Zhang Jizhong to introduce himself to play Ling Huchong, but the bearded man directly refused after taking a look at him, but promised him that he could play Qiao Feng, so when the filming of "Tianlong Babu" began, the 35-year-old Hu Jun became the only actor in the show who did not audition and was designated to play the first male lead.
Hu Jun interpreted the arrogant and domineering temperament of Qiao Gang lord to the fullest, compared with the TVB version of Qiao Feng, Hu Jun's shape and performance are more rugged, which is also in line with the identity of Qiao Feng's Khitan people. This role directly made Hu Jun a well-known actor, but also an unforgettable youth memory in the hearts of countless people, and it is said that Jin Yong also praised Hu Jun as his most recognized Qiao Feng.
After successfully shaping Qiao Feng, Hu Jun's drama path has always been fixed on the type of tough guy, which has also limited Hu Jun's play path to some extent. However, this time, his performance in "Chosin Lake" made everyone's eyes light up and see the other side of Hu Jun in addition to the tough guy. Although Lei Gong is also a well-known tough guy in essence, compared with the previous Qiao Feng, the difference is already very large, which can also be regarded as a big explosion in Hu Jun's performance in recent years. It is estimated that this time Lei Gong can let him get a lot of best supporting actor nominations. I look forward to him bringing more surprises to the audience.
