"Playing only one role in a lifetime" does not mean that he really only plays one role in his life, but in his career, there is a role that is extremely classic and no one is shaken. For an actor, it is a matter of pride to be able to create a classic role that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
For everyone who is familiar with and loves steppe culture, as long as we talk about Genghis Khan, we must have this face in front of our eyes:
He is certainly not Genghis Khan himself, but the actor Bassenzab. He is well known for portraying the role of Genghis Khan on the big screen.
Bassen (Mongolian: Mijid Baasanjav), formerly known as Bassenzab, Mongolian, born in 1954 in Xinjiang, is a national first-class actor. In the 1970s, he worked as a dancer in the Cultural and Labor Troupe of the Political Department of the People's Liberation Army Engineering Corps; in the 1980s, he engaged in drama in the Inner Mongolia Film Studio; after the 1990s, he successively participated in film and television dramas such as "The Legend of the Hero of Donggui" and "Genghis Khan". In 2012, Bassen was awarded the Order of the North Star of Mongolia in recognition of his contributions to the friendly relations and cooperation and cultural development of Mongolia and China. Because of his tough image, good acting skills, wide drama road, and his own Mongolian aristocratic temperament, he was called a "khan professional household" by his peers.
