On November 17, Di Xin left, without a farewell ceremony or a memorial service.

Her husband, the famous performance artist Lan Tianye, said that he had discussed this issue with Di Xin and finally decided that everything was from Jane, "It's so cold, I don't want so many old friends to work hard and be sad again." ”

The name Di Xin is not so familiar to ordinary people, but in the drama circle, it is a resounding name, "on the stage of renyi, her fame can be greater than that of the blue sky and wild" and "she has been acting brilliantly on the stage", which is the evaluation of her by the old actors of renyi.

Di Xin was born in Beijing in September 1927. In 1945, she studied at Beijing Zhicheng Middle School, where she loved literature and art during high school, and began acting in drama in 1946, thus beginning a lifelong artistic career. On the drama stage, Di Xin has starred in many drama masterpieces such as "Thunderstorm", "Sunrise", "Guan Hanqing", "Wang Zhaojun", "Cai Wenji", "Sword and Gall", and has also cooperated with her husband Lan Tianye many times.

Blue Sky Wild's evaluation of her is, "Her life is also worth it, very wonderful, very meaningful." ”

talent

In the 1960s, the drama "Sword and Guts" was released in Renyi. At the opening, the Kingdom of Yue was defeated, and Wu Wang Fucha appeared on the scene and saw Xi Shi on the other side of the river. Fu Cha was impressed by Xi Shi's beauty and blurted out: "Beautiful! ”

Cao Yu, who was the dean of renyi at the time, couldn't help but marvel in the audience, "This Xi Shi is really beautiful enough to make people shine!" ”

This Xi Shi is played by Deisin. Actors on stage, pretty is common. Jin Zhao, a retired actor of Renyi, recalled that Renyi has many beautiful faces, but Di Xin's charm is still one of the best in it, her face as long as she wears makeup, "the silhouette is particularly beautiful", and once she stands on the stage, she can attract the attention of countless people. "It can only be said that she was born on the stage."

The face is beautiful, but Di Xin is not so confident on the stage at all times. Di Xin once recalled in the article that when rehearsing "Sword and Guts", when he first put on Xi Shi's costume, he was not so confident - how could he be more like a noble princess?

Di Xin decided to study Peking Opera. For a long time, Di Xin often went to Zhongshan Park early in the morning and learned opera from the famous Peking Opera actress Li Huifang. Running rounds, walking steps, practicing your voice... After a period of hard training, Di Xin learned to sing the whole fold, and also learned to lie down and bend down and other Peking opera figures. "After that, when I put on Xi Shi's costume again, I gradually found the feeling."

"Di Xin is very serious about drama, and she is also very talented." Blue Sky Ye recalled that once, the theater was staging "Sunrise", and the actor who played the protagonist Chen Bailu fell ill early in the morning. The stage was set up, the tickets had already been sold, and the director Ouyang Shanzun was in a hurry, so he found Di Xin and said: "You raid it, a daytime rehearsal, tonight will play Chen Bailu!" ”

At the end of the performance, Blue Sky Wild saw Di Xin in the background and asked busily: "How's it going, is it still going well?" ”

"Okay, it's finally done." Di Xin breathed a long sigh of relief.

Afterwards, Blue Sky Wild learned that Di Xin did not make a mistake on the stage. "She does have talent, plus hard work, so over the years, she can be said to be the most actress acting on the stage."

Desperately

Talented actresses, still desperate off the stage.

In 1964, Blue Sky Wild independently directed a play about rural life for the first time, "Before Marriage". Before the rehearsal, Lan Tianye first took the actors to Shunyi Houlu Gezhuang to experience life, including Di Xin, who played the protagonist.

In the countryside just after the end of the year, the land has just been civilized and still carries ice ballast. To sow seeds on such land, the locals say that only male labor can do the work.

Di Xin was not convinced, "Why can't the girl do it?" "I took off my shoes, pulled up my pants and went down to the ground. Blue Sky Ye recalled that at that time, "Di Xin was carrying a large four-tooth nail rake and working barefoot in the mud with ice ballast."

Later, "Before Marriage" was performed in the Great Hall of the People and was evaluated by the audience as "very rural". After watching the play, Peng Zhen, then mayor of Beijing, specifically asked Lan Tianye: "How much time did you spend to experience life?" ”

"She is willing to work hard, so the rural dramas she plays can have a vivid breath of life." Blue Sky Wild review.

As he grew older, Di Xin's efforts in acting, in the words of Blue Sky Wild, "are still so desperate." ”

In 1979, "Wang Zhaojun" premiered at the Capital Theatre. The script is written by Cao Yu, coupled with the superb acting skills of the actors, "Wang Zhaojun" has been performed more than 100 times in a row, and the audience is enthusiastic.

Only Lan Tianye knows that as the heroine of "Wang Zhaojun", Di Xin's every scene is "too difficult".

"She was in her fifties at the time and had some knee problems, but there were a lot of scenes where she had to kneel on stage." Blue Sky Ye recalled that for her, "It was a very fatal thing." Despite this, "Wang Zhaojun" still received praise and caused a sensation in 1980 as the first mainland play to perform in Hong Kong.

Entering the human arts in the same year, Di Xin retired a year later than Lan Tianye. "She doesn't want this stage, she loves acting too much." Blue Sky Wild recalled that Di Xin also acted in several plays after retirement, and later because of physical reasons, he could only say goodbye to the stage.

tacit understanding

Lan Tianye and Di Xin married in 1954, and they had more than one nail in each other, and the two had a tacit understanding.

Once, Lan Tianye and Di Xin went on "Art Life" together, and at the end of the show, Zhu Jun asked Di Xin to use two words to describe her husband, "straight" and "stubborn" are Di Xin's evaluations.

Mentioning this experience, Blue Sky Wild laughed. "My evaluation of her is also these two words."

In the second half of his life, Blue Sky Wild was fascinated by painting and collecting stones, and Di Xin was not so fascinated and did not interfere with her husband's hobbies. However, both of them value affection and friendship, and often party with old friends to have fun.

After retirement, some friends often called Di Xin every three or five minutes to chat, and Di Xin was very enthusiastic and talked for a long time. Every time as long as Di Xin's call came, Lan Tianye hurriedly said to the little nanny at home, "Hurry up and move a chair for Grandma." ”

Lan Tianye said that Di Xin is enthusiastic and prefers to be lively, and he prefers to be quiet and more introverted.

This quiet and moving fit has allowed the two to walk hand in hand for a long time.

Until the winter of 2018.

parting

On November 17, Beijing grew colder in winter.

On this day, Blue Sky Wild has been guarding by the bedside. Prior to this, Dickin's semi-comatose and half-sleeping state had lasted for several days.

At 10:45 a.m., he watched as his wife's face gradually calmed down and her breathing gradually stopped. "It was the first time I had seen so close that a person's life had disappeared at that moment." Blue Sky Wild's voice was somewhat hoarse, and he said that the only comforting thing was that his wife had not experienced much pain when she left, and her face was serene.

The children all began to cry, but the blue sky field seemed very calm. He said that although couples who have been in the same boat for more than sixty years are sad, they have long been mentally prepared and "can control themselves."

Before their deaths, the couple discussed the arrangements for their affairs. In the end, the family decided that everything would be simple, there would be no spiritual hall in the home, and no farewell ceremony for the remains.

"On such a cold day, let the old friends come, that is, it is sad once; if you don't come, the truth is also in the heart, in the memory." Blue Sky paused for a moment, "She treats people warmly, and I am sure that she will definitely approve of my decision." ”

"Her life, it's worth it, it's wonderful, it's meaningful." Blue Sky Wild's personality has always been indifferent, but at the moment his voice is a little hoarse. "When Di Xin was gone, all I could do was probably do as much as I could and do a few more things on stage. I believe that this can also express her feelings for the stage on behalf of Di Xin. ”

Dickin and I have been working together for more than half a century, from our twenties until we were 91. We have always been peers, always in the same unit, on the same stage. Di Xin especially loved the stage and loved acting, until she left and went back to act several plays. She is hardworking and talented, almost after the older sisters who are older than us, our generation has acted the most. She has played Wang Zhaojun, played Xi Shi, played Cai Wenji, played Xuan Yi, played Chen Bailu, played the bead curtain show... Modern drama has played bitter girls, red propagandists... Her acting career should be regarded as no regrets. - Blue Sky Wild
