All men are mortal? In 2024, even half of the time has passed, and four national first-class actors have passed away suddenly. Their passing seems to remind everyone to cherish those who are still alive.
Although the news of their death is sad, their lifespans are not short, they have all spent the years of the Cane Dynasty, and they have also used their limited lives to contribute good acting skills. Let's take a look back at what they have achieved in life.
The source of this article comes from the authoritative report [Beijing Tourism Network] [Guangming Network] (the detailed source is attached at the end of the article). In order to improve the readability of the article, there may be polishing of the details, please read sensibly, for reference only!
1. Chen Yongquan
As a Beijinger, Chen Yongquan has been associated with cross talk since he was a child. His maternal grandfather was very artistically talented and wrote a lot of interesting cross talks. His father is good at cross talk and is a member of several quyi organizations.
Under the words and deeds of his family, Chen Yongquan also learned a lot of cross talk skills and doorways, and after he completed his studies in the local No. 5 Middle School, he simply inherited his father's business and opened his personal cross talk road.
He did not directly seek lessons from the elders in his family, but became Tan Boru's apprentice. In this industry, he has worked as a clerk and has also tried to create many works such as "Pregnant Woman Questionnaire".
However, he later left the industry due to some force majeure factors. At that time, there were too many cross talk actors who could not create and express freely, and they lost their jobs at least and affected their families at worst. However, Chen Yongquan was reluctant to give up.
The rice bowl of cross talk, his family has served it for too long, and Chen Yongquan wants to continue the cross talk. At the age of 45, he finally waited for the opportunity to show his talent again. On stage, his three-talk comedy was widely acclaimed.
At present, stand-up comedy is rare, let alone three-stand-up comedy, which has higher requirements for actors' cooperation ability and funny ability. The experience of the first half of his life provided material for Chen Yongquan's creation.
After his comeback, he not only won the first prize in the country for his creation, but also won the second prize in the competition. It's hard to be a good comer, it's hard to be a good comic, but Chen Yongquan can do both roles well.
On Chen Yongquan's body, you can see the cross talk inheritance of the alternation of the old and new eras, like a jar of long-aged liquor, exuding a mellow aroma. A few years before his death, he rarely performed cross talk again, and only appeared in Luo Rongshou's birthday activities.
On April 14, 2024, at the age of 92, he traveled west. His collaboration with Li Jindou on "The Night Talk of the Mouse" once again sparked heated discussions, but unfortunately, there will never be a second such work.
Second, Li Ruping
Speaking of Li Ruping, it is difficult for many people to think of his masterpiece for a while, and some people don't even know what this actor looks like. However, in the hearts of the older generation, Li Ruping's weight is not low.
He plays Bamburshan, which is difficult to compare with in the entertainment industry. Just like He Shen played by Wang Gang, he performed the essence of Bamburshan's character traits: ruthless and cunning, scheming, and very villainous.
He is also a professional who plays "Gao Lishi", and when "Tang Minghuang" was on the air, many audiences loved to watch the part of Gao Lishi. Everyone's perception of this historical figure often stems from the allusion that "Li Bai is unwilling to take off his boots for him".
And Li Ruping's acting skills highlight the character's loyalty to Tang Xuanzong. His cautious and thoughtful thinking are all virtues that are worth learning from the audience. In the film industry, many old artists have played this role.
For example, Jin Chaoqun, Liao Qizhi... Their acting skills are remarkable, but they highlight the "neutral qualities" of the eunuchs too much, and they look no different from the eunuchs in other films, too homogeneous.
And Li Ruping's most clever thing is here, he can always understand the helplessness behind the bad things of the characters. He can always use a realistic attitude to restore a flesh-and-blood historical figure. This kind of acting skills can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Perhaps, when mentioning this national first-class actor, those who know him will immediately think of the screen images of Colliers and Bamburshan. However, to be able to play one or two of the best roles, the actor is already lucky.
Some of Jiang Lang's talented old actors play those lackluster roles in the entertainment industry to adapt to the market, which is worthy of their original intentions. On February 2, 2024, at the age of 83, he died in Bliss in Beijing.
3. Zhang Shuyun
Fans are used to it and call her Hua Wubao. Hua Wubao's stage name is a bit like a man, which is very characteristic of the 20th century. Zhang Shuyun has been living for the plum blossom drum all her life, and she is a beautiful woman who pursues decency.
However, her background is not solid, and she is not a princess. Because her family was so poor, she lived with her aunt since she was a child. Later, in order to make money, she started learning plum blossom drums early.
Her fourth sister is another adopted daughter, who is very beautiful and can sing early to make money. That's the reason why my aunt asked Zhang Shujun to learn this art project too. Zhang Shujun is very obedient and also falls in love with acting.
In this performing arts industry, Zhang Shuyun has her own stage name - Hua Wubao. Like the fourth sister, she became Qiu Yushan's apprentice. This teacher is good at the "Jin School" singing method, which gave Zhang Shuyun a unique enlightenment.
At the age of twelve, Zhang Shuyun officially made money on stage, and many years later, she became one of the representatives of the plum blossom drum and became famous. When mentioning Mr. Qiu Yushan, Zhang Shujun is always full of gratitude.
Although her fame surpassed that of the fourth sister Hua Sibao many years later, in the years when Zhang Shuyun first performed art, her sister was already a figure who could be published in the newspaper. In the city of Tianjin, Hua Wubao has left its mark of fame.
Later, she signed a contract with Renchang Radio, and her quality of life finally changed across classes. At first, the audience in Tianjin only knew that she was Hua Sibao's sister, but later, everyone slowly recognized her.
Later, Hua Wubao experienced the war. Her city of Tianjin was hit hard by the Japanese army, and Hua Wubao's work came to a halt because of this. In desperation, she had to go to the Northeast to make a living, and once again lived a life of performing arts.
Later, she returned to Tianjin. She is a person who has experienced great changes in history, and finally survived, and has never given up the love of her life. On March 10, 2024, she died in Tianjin at the age of 102.
Fourth, Lin Maorong
On March 30, 2024, 82-year-old Lin Maorong left the world forever. It wasn't until early the next month that the Beijing Peking Opera Company released the retired cadre's obituary. It's a pity that such a theatrical actor is so bad.
There are also many actors in his family who are engaged in the opera industry, which has provided a lot of valuable advice and opportunities for Lin Maorong's career path. After he was admitted to the local opera school, he learned a solid knowledge of opera.
Not only that, but he is also Jiang Miaoxiang's apprentice. With the guidance of famous teachers, you can not only learn knowledge that ordinary people can't learn, but also get more "close to the water" referral opportunities. Lin Maorong was very competitive and lived up to expectations.
He is not only well-known in China, but also has been to Myanmar and Japan with the theater troupe, allowing foreigners to see the charm of Peking Opera and making Chinese in foreign countries feel the warmth of their hometown.
His "Shooting Halberd", "Odd Shuanghui", "Wine Supervision Order"... are all rare and excellent tracks. His rich voice and elegant appearance are not only widely recognized by the audience, but also textbook-level in the Peking Opera circle.
In 2022, he weighed 220 pounds, and when he had half a dental implant, he still needed to go to the doctor in a wheelchair. He also used a wheelchair to give a speech to the student workshop shop.
Unfortunately, such a scene will never be repeated again.
Epilogue:
The departure of these famous actors is a huge loss for the industry. No matter how good a reputation they achieve, they will eventually be unable to escape the iron law of life, old age, sickness and death. Fortunately, their wish has been fulfilled, and they have no regrets.
