On May 14, the 75th Cannes Film Festival will kick off in the coastal city of Cannes in the south of France. As a legendary figure among Asian filmmakers, the 59-year-old Gong Li will also shine on the red carpet of the opening ceremony. When she appeared at Nice airport to greet fans, she was like an energetic girl, smiling and radiant.
33 years ago, Gong Li once used a black and white shirt to create a classic red carpet look in Cannes, and became famous in the international film industry in one fell swoop. To this day, she still maintains the spirit and acting skills of the year, and has become one of the important representatives of Chinese films.
As an early pioneer of Chinese cinema, Gong Li has always maintained sincerity and perseverance on the road of artistic pursuit. She once said in an interview that after entering the film and television industry at the age of 18, she was determined to create a "versatile Gong Li" who was not limited by any role.
In order to realize this ideal, she has starred in classic films in the Chinese film industry such as "Red Sorghum", "Alive", "Shake, Shake, Shake to Grandma's Bridge", from patriotic female teachers to orphans and widows, from young girls to heroic female soldiers, she has created a full three-dimensional, colorful screen image.
In particular, the many collaborations with director Zhang Yimou have brought Gong Li's acting skills to a higher level and have played a significant role in promoting the development of Chinese film art.
In the film directed by Zhang Yimou, Gong Li's portrayal of the heroic female soldier Yue'er and the intelligent and wise Princess Jenny have become unforgettable character symbols in the history of Chinese cinema.
The role of Yue'er is one of Gong Li's masterpieces, she practiced equestrian for this role for half a year, and also completed most of the action scenes herself. Whether it is Yue'er's fierce battlefield image or the mourning expression in the face of the death of a loved one, it has achieved the three-dimensional and legendary role of this heroic female soldier.
In Gong Li's view, the age of an actor is not the limit to success, acting skills and the persistent pursuit of art are the foundation of an actor's foothold on the stage. Since she joined the film and television career at the age of 18, she has been determined to become a good actor, and has unremittingly insisted on acting training and acting practice.
On the set, Gong Li had extremely high requirements for herself and her team, she said, "Without 120 percent of effort, it is impossible to have 100 points of performance."
In order to present the reality and vividness of the characters on the screen, she will wear a full set of outfits prepared by the crew and rehearse repeatedly in front of the camera, trying to integrate herself more into the role.
It is this kind of professional acting that strives for perfection that shapes her real and moving performance on the screen. At the same time, she is also happy to work with young actors to help them grow with her professionalism.
When Gong Li is not playing the role in the play, she lives a calm and simple life, and is an ordinary woman and wife. She chose to stay away from the hustle and bustle of the entertainment industry and devote more time to her family.
Gong Li and her French husband Jean-Michel Jarre are 17 years apart, but the two get along well and have a stable relationship. "I'm not a person in the entertainment industry", Gong Li defines herself like this, she is unwilling to focus on things that are useless.
In this era when "traffic" has become the focus of attention, Gong Li's professionalism and artistic pursuit convey unique positive energy to the public.
In Gong Li's view, the significance of participating in the Cannes Film Festival is not only to appear on the red carpet, but also to open up the popularity of Chinese films through his works and attract the attention of the world's screens.
Her brilliant performance in the film shows the world the artistic charm and realm of Chinese actors. This year, Gong Li will step on the Cannes red carpet for the 20th time, forming a wonderful echo of the classic appearance 33 years ago.
Time has not left too many traces on her face, and at the age of 59, she is still radiant and outstanding. We are full of expectations and believe that under the guidance of Gong Li, Chinese films will surely paint a more colorful picture and show it to the world film stage.
