【A Thousand Old Filmmakers Traces (410) - Wu Xiqian]
Speaking of Wu Laogui, many friends who are more than middle-aged and old will definitely think of the reconnaissance squad leader in the movie "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" released in 1954.
The army will cross the river the day after tomorrow, and if the enemy's howitzer positions cannot be disposed of, our army will suffer huge casualties. Therefore, Li Lianchang, played by Sun Daolin, asked Wu Laogui and Xiao Ma to send the information across the river before dawn tomorrow anyway.
Wu Laogui and Xiao Ma were discovered by the enemy when crossing the Yangtze River, unfortunately, Wu Lao Gui was hit by the enemy and died heroically, and Xiao Ma forcibly crossed the river and sent the information to the headquarters in time...
This Wu Laogui is played by the famous actor Qi Heng.
However, at this time, what Entertainment Entertainment tv wants to say is not Qi Heng, but Wu Laogui in the 1974 version of the remake of the color film "Reconnaissance of Crossing the River".
Unlike the 1954 version of the black-and-white film "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" directed by Tang Xiaodan and starring Sun Daolin, Li Lingjun, Qi Heng, etc., the 1974 remake "Crossing the River Reconnaissance" was directed by Tang Huada and Tang Xiaodan, and starred Wang Hui, Zhang Jinling, Wu Xiqian and so on.
