The mountain is high and the road is far and deep, and the army is running in all directions.
Who dares to cross the knife? Only I am General Peng.
On the evening of December 27, 40 episodes of the historical war drama "Crossing the Yalu River" landed on CCTV.
The pickpocket sister suppressed her excitement and watched two episodes in one breath.
In terms of cast, Tang Guoqiang plays Chairman Mao Zedong, Sun Weimin plays Premier Zhou Enlai, Wang Wood plays Marshal Zhu De, and Guo Lianwen plays Vice Chairman Liu Shaoqi... The performance of these special actors can be described as both form and spirit, flat and stable. After all, they have all challenged the same role, and the performance skills are obvious to all, and there is no need to repeat them here.
As everyone knows, Marshal Peng Dehuai is the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Volunteer Army to fight in Korea. And the TV series "Crossing the Yalu River" is filming this magnificent history, so Peng Dehuai's role in this play will definitely be very heavy; how the actor who plays Peng Dehuai behaves will definitely be a special concern for the audience.
Sure enough, after watching the TV series, the audience immediately quarreled.
"God-like" means that the white dot is not at all like;
Marshal Peng, who likes Dong Yong's performance;
Why don't domestic first-line actors have actors who play Peng Dehuai and have both gods and gods?
Among them, the main point of contention among netizens is the issue of "Zong Liqun and Peng Dehuai, played by Ding Yongdai, who is more like".
In the view of the pickpocket sister, Zong Liqun and Ding Yongdai have their own advantages, and they have accurately captured a certain aspect of Marshal Peng Dehuai and vividly interpreted it.
1. Marshal Peng Dehuai of Zong Liqun's version
For Zong Liqun, the high fit of Marshal Peng Dehuai in appearance and his military background are his greatest advantages.
In 1990, when director Li Jun filmed the TV series "Armageddon", from a stack of actor photos of Peng Dehuai's image, he singled out Zong Liqun, who was serving in the army, you know, among them, Ding Xiaoyi of the Central Experimental Drama Troupe and Lei Fei of Beijing Renyi, and many other special actors who played Peng Dehuai.
Director Li Jun believes that although Ding Xiaoyi and Lei Fei are similar, they seem to lack an innate military temperament and general demeanor.
Therefore, when he consulted Peng Dehuai's family, Peng Dehuai's family pointed to Zong Liqun's photo and said with tears in their eyes: "Like, too similar!" ”
At that time, when shooting modern historical dramas, the first criterion for selecting actors was to be like, but just being like was not enough.
After Zong Liqun, who was born in the military, took over this role, he immediately photographed General Peng Dehua's majestic and heroic hair and the spirit of the horizontal knife.
Soon, in the TV series "China Has a Mao Zedong", Zong Liqun partnered with Gu Yue, Su Lin, Liu Huaizheng, Cao Can, Liu Xitian and other actors, and once again starred as Marshal Peng Dehuai.
It is precisely because all the actors in the show are so similar that this 15-episode TV series is currently rated as high as 9.1 on Douban!
After perfectly interpreting the role of Peng Dehuai again, Zong Liqun started the journey of a special actor: "Bloody Taixing", "Zunyi Conference", "Dadu Bridge Cross-Iron Cable Han", "Huang Kecheng", "Great Turning", "The Great Cause of The Founding of the People's Republic", "The Famous Anti-Japanese General Zuo Quan", "Dongfang"... It is said that after Zong Liqun returned to the army, his comrades-in-arms did not dare to joke with him -- in front of Mr. Peng, who dared to be brazen?
Zong Liqun's divine power can be seen.
As we have analyzed earlier, zong liqun's biggest advantage as Peng Dehuai is his appearance and military temperament. But its efforts cannot be ignored.
In order to play the role of Peng Dehuai, Zong Liqun paid a lot of effort. He not only studied Peng Dehuai's life deeds thoroughly, but also consulted the descendants and related people of Peng Dehuai's family, repeatedly watched Peng Dehuai's video materials before his death, film and television materials after his birth, and rigid details, so that he and this role "perfectly overlapped".
For example, in "Bright Sword", Peng Dehuai, who played the deputy commander-in-chief, made many troops stunned. Some of them saw Zong Liqun coming over and couldn't help but want to salute.
This is no exaggeration! The same situation also appeared in the "Orient", "Red Army Crusade", "City of Memory", "Xiao Jinguang Award" and other crews, Zong Liqun fused the identities of actors and soldiers together. Peng Dehuai's kind of heroic and powerful domineering can not only infect the crew and actors, but also overflow the screen to infect the audience.
He is a soldier himself, his appearance is similar, and he has repeatedly interpreted the role of Peng Dehuai, how can Zong Liqun's version of Peng Dehuai not be classic?
2. Ding Yongdai's version of Marshal Peng Dehuai
Unlike Zong Liqun, Ding Daiyong was controversial and questioned at the beginning of taking over this role.
Before starring as Marshal Peng Dehuai, Ding Yongdai had been in the show business circle for nearly 40 years. But he came from a drama background and had no military experience; in terms of appearance, he did not seem to be like Marshal Peng Dehuai. At the same time, because he has created a number of classic images in other types of dramas, if he can't quickly replace himself with the image of Mr. Peng, then the audience will obviously not buy it.
I believe that the director of "Crossing the Yalu River" will definitely think of this problem at the beginning of the casting, after all, Tang Guoqiang, Sun Weimin, Wang Wood, Guo Lianwen, Lu Qi and other special actors have been appointed, why not use special actors only in the important role of Peng Dehuai?
Sister Pickpocket believes that the main reason is that the director wants to create a real, multi-faceted Peng Dehuai, which is different from the past!
As the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Volunteer Army to fight in Korea, Peng Dehuai gave most ordinary audiences the impression of "General Peng Da with a horizontal knife", but as far as the cruelty of the war is concerned, the horizontal knife is obviously not enough, and it is also necessary to strategize.
Let's watch the TV series, in the first two episodes, it spared no effort to explain the domestic and foreign environment: the Soviet side, the United States side, the Taiwanese side, the Chinese mainland side; at the same time, it arranged almost all the important characters to appear: Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai, Liu Shaoqi, Deng Xiaoping, Deng Hua, Chiang Kai-shek, Truman, Stalin, MacArthur... Then, it portrayed group portraits of several small people, such as the ordinary soldiers and doctors attracted by the US military when bombing China's border villages, Chairman Mao's Hunan cook on the train back from the Soviet Union, and so on; finally, Marshal Peng Dehuai appeared, when Chairman Mao pointed out Peng Dehuai's situation at that time: "The rear economy is doing well"!
In such a complex and tense domestic and international environment, how did Ding Daiyong interpret Peng Dehuai's state at that time?
First of all, Ding Daiyong showed Peng Dehuai's fierce side. This side is in full swing to carry out economic construction in the rear, and the flames of war over there are about to burn to the national gate. The country has a call, immediately prepare wholeheartedly for war!
Secondly, Ding Daiyong showed the warm side of Peng Dehua. When chatting with his wife, he talked about his nephew, and only a few words overflowed the warmth on the screen.
Then, Ding Daiyong showed Peng Dehuai's diligent side. At night, the lamp-picking work woke his wife up, and she was not willing to sleep, but was ready to change places to continue working.
In the end, Ding Daiyong showed Peng Dehuai's stoic side. War is about to break out, but he is as stable as Mount Tai.
At this time, Peng Dehuai was 52 years old, and he had already experienced hundreds of battles and made great achievements. He is not only the general Peng Da who charged into the battlefield, but also the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army!
In other words, Ding Yongdai plays Mr. Peng, who is quite a Confucian general.
Then through the above analysis, as far as the details are concerned, Ding Yongdai obviously brilliantly deduced the most real Peng Dehuai in this period; then it is also foreseeable that when Peng Dehuai led the Chinese volunteer army to "be majestic and energetic, and cross the Yalu River", Ding Yongdai will surely show another side of Peng Dehuai!
In the two episodes that have just been broadcast now, Ding Yongdai portrays the "truth" of Peng Dehuai's life and work, and after going to the battlefield, he will show the "truth" of Peng Dehuai when he fights.
Therefore, Zong Liqun's version and Ding Daiyong's version of Peng Dehuai, one is authenticity restoration, the other is artistic restoration, and the performance of both is very exciting, there is no distinction between high and low.
As Ding Daiyong himself said: "When I first started looking for me, I actually didn't have much confidence, because Peng Dehuai was a very characteristic person!" But I felt that even if I was an actor, I should shoulder the responsibility on my shoulders. Without "them" there would be no us now, when we become "them", when doing our best! ”
A tribute to the real actors, but also to our heroes.
Thank you to them for restoring that magnificent history for us, and thank you to the heroes for defending peace for us.
70 years ago, they shouldered the mission and went out with enthusiasm;
70 years later, we remember history and pay tribute to heroes.
