"A well-respected old artist actually 'plays' immigration?"
In 1987, Wang Xingang, a veteran actor who has always been loved by the audience, suddenly broke the news that "the whole family moved to the United States", which made many people puzzled.
There are even a large number of people in the media: "If you make enough money in China, you will go abroad to enjoy happiness." ”
But in fact, the truth is not the case, Wang Xingang has unspeakable hardships.
A special upbringing
Wang Xingang, who was born in 1932, although the era of his birth was somewhat turbulent, his family situation is much stronger than most people.
His father was engaged in the accounting industry at the time, and he was a rare talent, so he did not suffer too much injustice, but he has always been very decent and supported the family's life.
At first, his father wanted Wang Xingang to also engage in this profession, but who would have thought that his son would go another way.
And the reason why Wang Xingang became an actor is related to his mother.
Her mother was a rare "intellectual woman" in that era, and in addition to literature, she also had a strong interest in literary and artistic works, especially opera.
As a result, Wang Xingang slowly gained a deep impression of literary and artistic work under the influence of his mother.
When he was in middle school, Wang Xingang began to deliberately cultivate his artistic skills, such as theatrical performances and other activities, he actively participated, and once became the "class face" in the eyes of the teacher.
What's more, after a chance encounter with drama, Wang Xingang instantly determined his future life - to become an actor.
It's just that in the eyes of most people at that time, actors were "actors", and they couldn't make any money, let alone get on the stage.
Don't talk about others, even the father has such a concept, so when he learned that his son was going to be an actor, his father immediately objected, and his attitude was very tough.
But his father didn't expect that Wang Xingang, who had always been submissive to him, actually contradicted him this time.
Seeing that his son was so resolute, the father had no choice but to compromise.
What's more, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the literary and artistic circles urgently needed to be "rescued", and literary and artistic talents were particularly important.
So, at the age of 17, in order to make himself better, Wang Xingang took the initiative to sign up for a literary training class, and after graduating with excellent grades, he became a member of the art troupe.
In the days of the Art Troupe, Wang Xingang has always been diligent, and he worked hard to polish his acting skills in dramas.
At this time, Wang Xingang would never have imagined that the achievements in the film and television industry in the future would be so dazzling.
Bloom in the entertainment industry
In fact, not long after he participated in the drama, a movie came to him to play the movie, and it was still the leading actor.
However, he felt that he was not capable, so he missed it.
But because Wang Xingang is handsome and has a kind of masculinity that belongs to a man, even if he refuses many times, there will still be directors who invite him.
And the director saw that Wang Xingang always refused, so he decided to use "roundabout tactics", that is, to directly find Wang Xingang's leadership and "force" Wang Xingang to comply.
In this way, after many refusals, Wang Xingang finally began to try to make movies.
In 1956, Wang Xingang received an appointment for "Silent Mountains and Forests" and played the male lead in it.
Originally, he just had the mentality of giving it a try, but after the movie was released, it actually exploded across the country, and Wang Xingang became the dream lover of many girls with his handsome appearance.
After "becoming an instant hit", Wang Xingang received more and more drama appointments, and from this moment on, he slowly broke away from the drama and turned his main energy to acting in movies.
It didn't take long for a "Shepherd's Son" to push Wang Xingang to the first-line position of a film and television star.
And Wang Xingang, who has excellent acting skills and is very sincere, has naturally become a sweet spot in the eyes of many people in the industry, and even Bayi Studio has thrown an olive branch to him.
Since then, excellent classics such as "Sea Eagle" and "Red Detachment of Women" have helped Wang Xingang further enhance his fame.
The work "The Eternal Wave" was also filmed after joining Bayi Factory.
It is worth mentioning here that Wang Xingang in this movie has a different challenge - playing a villain.
Originally, he has always been a positive screen image, so almost no one believes that he can play a good "villain", but what makes everyone slap everyone in the face is that Wang Xingang not only played well, but even overshadowed the limelight of the big male lead.
can interpret two very contrasting roles, which is enough to prove how outstanding Wang Xingang's acting skills are.
And when filming "Sea Eagle", Wang Xingang's dedication was also admirable.
Although he had been a soldier, he had never been in contact with the navy, and in order to better restore the true appearance of the navy, he also went to the navy to go on missions with the team, and his food and drink were also synchronized with his naval comrades.
And his most common task was to patrol the torpedo boats.
As a person who rarely "floats" on the sea, Wang Xingang was completely unable to adapt to life at sea at first, and whenever the torpedo boat moved, he vomited "doubting life".
But even so, Wang Xingang did not complain, but worked hard to support until he completely overcame the physiological reaction.
After he returned to the crew, he saw that Wang Xingang's face was bloodless, as if he had had a serious illness.
But it is this perseverance and dedication mentality that allows him to complete every scene in "Sea Eagle" excellently and create the vivid character of "Zhang Min".
After the movie was released, Wang Xingang was not only praised for his outstanding acting skills, but also developed a "peach news" because of his appearance in this play.
Wang Xingang and his female partner Wang Xiaotang in the play once enjoyed a rare pleasure in a convertible together, and this beautiful scene once fascinated countless boys and girls.
And one of them is handsome, the other is gentle and lovely, and they were instantly regarded as a "couple" by fans.
In today's terms, they were the hot "screen CPs" at that time.
And after this time, they have also cooperated many times, making the call for "screen couples" higher and higher.
Many people even began to think that maybe they had come together offline, but they didn't make it public.
But in the face of the overwhelming "blessings", Wang Xingang did something unexpected to everyone.
It turned out that he was not single for a long time.
Genuine love
The most popular theory on the Internet is that Wang Xingang had already met his wife Yang Zhaocai when he was in the art troupe.
After a short period of love, the two decided to make each other their partners.
Yang Zhaocai is a very virtuous woman, since she got married, in order to let her husband better pursue his artistic dreams, she took the initiative to resign from her existing literary and artistic work, and instead became a wife at home as a husband and children.
Later, even if someone invited her to appear in film and television dramas, Yang Zhaocai refused them all, and wholeheartedly took care of Wang Xingang's family affairs, so that he had no worries at all.
After giving birth to her son, Yang Zhaocai poured all her efforts into the family.
It wasn't until her son was older that she tried to make a comeback, but it was also a behind-the-scenes job like music editing so that she could have more time for her family.
It's just that fate is impermanent, just when Wang Xingang and his wife were full of longing for the future, they ushered in a "bad news".
In 1972, Yang Zhaocai's best friend committed suicide, because of what happened to his best friend, Yang Zhaocai's psychological problems also appeared, and then "mental illness" was derived.
She began to become emotionally volatile, and no matter who she faced, she was always angry for no reason.
In addition, there may be acts of harming one's body with utensils.
And the changes in Yang Zhaocai directly affected the normal life of the whole family, and Wang Xingang had to reduce the time for filming and take good care of his wife at home.
Faced with his wife's moodiness, Wang Xingang once felt at a loss, but his love for his wife made him never give up.
He began to take Yang Zhaocai to many places, seek medical advice, and try various methods.
Yang Zhaocai will lose his temper like a child many times, but Wang Xingang has never been upset about this, but has incarnated as a "loving father", loving Yang Zhaocai as a "little daughter", and trying to soothe her emotions as much as possible.
For nearly ten years, Wang Xingang patiently stayed by his wife's side, and he finally stayed until the "dawn", and his wife's body finally improved completely.
Considering the hard work he has been working on all these years, coupled with the healing effect of consolidating his wife, Wang Xingang made another decision: to take the whole family to the United States for a break.
It's just that after the news came out, many people subconsciously thought that he was going to "emigrate".
But in fact, Wang Xingang is a staunch "patriotic artist", he has always been a "Chinese", and he does not have the idea of admiring foreigners.
When he was almost recuperating, Wang Xingang immediately returned to China with his family.
It's just that after years of hard work, Wang Xingang's body still has a lot of stubborn diseases, and it is because of this that he gradually stopped.
For Wang Xingang's career as an actor, perhaps it could not be more appropriate to describe it in a sentence from Mr. Wang Tiecheng.
He once said: "Acting seriously, being honest, acting is not only serious but also serious." ”
Looking back, Wang Xingang was conscientious in drama, dared to experience hardships, and overcame hardships, and finally presented a perfect screen performance;
In terms of life, he loves his family, is kind to others, and has great sincerity.
Like Wang Tiecheng, who played "Premier Zhou", Wang Xingang is a well-deserved "double xin of virtue and art".
Wang Xingang in his later years, as he was when he was young, was low-key and introverted, and he would not be angry because his fame disappeared, but would take the initiative to reduce exposure.
Even when he starred in "My Long March", he was invited by the director "Three Visits to the Thatched House".
Now, he and his family have settled in Beijing, and the children have long grown up, and the family is plain and happy.
Wang Xingang's existence is the "bright light" in the film and television industry, and he has influenced too many practitioners with his attitude and spirit.
It is precisely because of old artists like Wang Xingang that our screen works will become vivid, and the entertainment industry will retain the last dignity.
It's really a blessing to have this actor.
