Wang Fulin's life is full of legends, and with a "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Fulin has gained a firm foothold in the director industry.
Whenever there is a work about "Dream of Red Mansions" online, Wang Fulin's name will be mentioned, after all, the 87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" directed by him is a classic among the classics.
In addition to "Dream of Red Mansions", another masterpiece "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is also by Wang Fulin. Holding two classic works, Wang Fulin's status in the film and television industry has been established.
However, behind this scenery, there are countless bitter pasts......
The road to "godhood".
Wang Fulin was born in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu Province in 1931.
In that turbulent era, he fled with his family to Shanghai at the age of six.
At that time, the place where he lived in Shanghai was surrounded by theaters, and Wang Fulin grew up listening to these sounds since he was a child, so Wang Fulin had a great interest in these theatrical performances and dramas.
Even though he did not go through systematic learning, Wang Fulin relied on his talent to learn opera and bamboo flute.
But at that time, Wang Fulin did not consider engaging in this industry in the future, on the contrary, he had a great interest in English, and his English scores were also very good, but because his grades in mathematics, physics and chemistry were not good and seriously biased, Wang Fulin could not be admitted to university.
At this time, Shanghai had just been liberated, and the Shanghai Drama College (the predecessor of today's Shanghai Theater Academy) began to recruit students from all over the country.
So Wang Fulin set his sights on drama school.
After many hard work, Wang Fulin finally succeeded in entering the university.
After entering the school, Wang Fulin thought that he could show his strength in school with the fur he learned when he was a child, but he found that performing on stage was completely different from what he imagined.
In desperation, Wang Fulin could only turn from acting to drama.
However, no one thought that this transformation would directly change Wang Fulin's fate.
A few years later, Wang Fulin was assigned to work at the Central Broadcasting Bureau in Beijing. Although Wang Fulin was reluctant to leave Shanghai, he had no choice but to follow the school's arrangement.
After coming to Beijing, Wang Fulin became an announcer, but Wang Fulin grew up in the south, so his Mandarin was not very standard, and he was not qualified for this job.
After a few years, Wang Fulin decided to change careers to become a director, and this time Wang Fulin found a career that he really likes to do. In 1956, "The Emperor's New Clothes" directed by Wang Fulin was officially broadcast on CCTV.
In the following years, Wang Fulin created many masterpieces one after another, making great contributions to China's film and television industry.
In 1979, Wang Fulin visited United Kingdom as a member of the delegation, during which Wang Fulin discovered that many films and television in United Kingdom were adapted from literary masterpieces. So he had the bold idea of making "Dream of Red Mansions", one of the four famous novels, into a film and television.
After returning to China, Wang Fulin told his superiors about the idea, and although he was subjected to various pressures and restrictions during this period, Wang Fulin's idea was finally supported by Taili.
Wang Fulin and Dream of Red Mansions
So Wang Fulin took the "Shang Fang Sword" and began a long road of creation.
In order to present this film perfectly in front of the audience, Wang Fulin personally controlled almost every detail from collecting information to casting actors.
When choosing actors, Wang Fulin also encountered great difficulties, especially the actor of "Jia Baoyu". In order to fit the role better, the crew also gave the actor's chin plastic surgery at public expense.
After several years of preparation, "Dream of Red Mansions" finally began filming.
When "Dream of Red Mansions" officially appeared on the big screen, the audience's reaction did not live up to Wang Fulin's efforts for several years, and once it was broadcast, it received countless praises, so it also won the special prize of the 7th China TV Feitian Awards.
In addition to "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Fulin also filmed "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which also won the special prize of the Feitian Award.
The filming of two literary masterpieces made Wang Fulin's reputation resounding throughout the entertainment industry, which was undoubtedly a strong stroke in his career, but at this time an accident happened.
For 36 years alone
When Wang Fulin's directorial career was brilliant, the unexpected death of his wife Wang Zhifu brought a heavy blow to Wang Fulin.
For Wang Fulin, his wife is not only his partner, but also a close friend who has accompanied him countless days and nights.
As a senior editor of China Central Radio, Wang Zhifu provided a lot of help and her own unique insights when Wang Fulin was filming "Dream of Red Mansions".
Including many excellent voice actors in "Dream of Red Mansions", Wang Zhifu is also looking for them personally, and for Wang Fulin, the success of "Dream of Red Mansions" also has a credit from his wife.
However, no one thought that Wang Zhifu, who was only 55 years old, would die of illness, which was a very heavy blow to Wang Fulin, almost a collapse, and he cried all day long in front of his wife's portrait.
Thanks to having his son by his side, Wang Fulin gradually came out of the pain of losing his wife.
It is worth mentioning that Wang Fulin's son Wang Xiaojing is not a vegetarian. In 1979, Wang Xiaojing was admitted to Peking University, majoring in psychology.
After graduation, Wang Xiaojing chose to inherit his father's mantle and became a director, and made remarkable achievements, creating well-known works such as "I Love My Family" and "Sister Idler".
Wang Fulin's excellence and success made Wang Fulin feel very gratified. The years of dedication of myself and my wife have finally paid off, and I also have the best comfort for my wife who is in the spirit of heaven.
Now Wang Fulin is 93 years old, and his son Wang Xiaojing is also 64 years old, he has not only achieved great success in his career, but also is a filial son in life, accompanying his father to take care of him all the year round.
After the death of his wife, Wang Fulin did not choose to start a family again, but for his wife to stay alone in the empty house for 36 years, Wang Fulin and Wang Zhifu's feelings are moving, it is a pity that the two did not accompany each other to eternity, in countless days and nights, Wang Fulin can always appear the face of his wife.
epilogue
Wang Fulin's achievements have undoubtedly promoted the development of China's film and television industry, and the unswerving love between him and his wife also makes us feel the same way, and I hope that Wang Fulin is healthy and all the best.
