Shaw's Film "Dream of the Red Chamber"
Since its inception, Dream of the Red Chamber has been adapted into various works of art. There are operas, movies and television, etc. In 1927, Shanghai Fudan Film Company filmed a film named "Dream of the Red Chamber", the film took Liu Grandma as the main line, Lin Daiyu Xue Baochao and other people have appeared, unfortunately this is a fashion film, but borrowed the name and general story of the characters in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Two years later, Shanghai Peacock Film Company also made a film named after "Dream of the Red Chamber", in order to distinguish it from the "Fashion "Dream of the Red Chamber" in 1929, the producer deliberately stated in the advertisement: "The film is a costume ... Huge films, not fashionable comparable. But it is very regrettable that the story of this film is in the modern style, telling the story of a female college student who loves freely, and her father is dissatisfied, so the female college student dreams of "Yuan Fei Provincial Relatives" in "Dream of the Red Chamber"... When she woke up, her father no longer objected to her story of free love.
Both films proved to be failures. It is also understandable that it was very difficult to shoot a film of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in that era, so it can only be borrowed from this form of "joke". But it is easy to rub the heat of "Dream of the Red Chamber", but it is not easy for the audience to buy it.
It was not until many years later that the famous director Bu Wancang filmed the first full-drama film "Dream of the Red Chamber", and narrated the story with respect for the original work.
Stills from Bu Wancang's version of "Dream of the Red Chamber"
Since then, there have been more film and television dramas in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Today we will compare the "Wang Xifeng" played by different actors.
See which actor's "Wang Xifeng" is more classic.
01
In 1944, Bai Hong played Wang Xifeng in the movie Dream of the Red Chamber
In 1944, Bu Wancang's film "Dream of the Red Chamber" was the first film to be generally accepted by the audience. Of course, this contains a lot of painstaking efforts of director Bu Wancang, in order to shoot this film, Bu Wancang repeatedly studied "Dream of the Red Chamber", and involved many treatises on "Dream of the Red Chamber", referring to many styles before starting filming. Bu Wancang's perspective is very clever, he did not try to reflect the story of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in a panoramic way, but closely focused on the main line of "the love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu", focusing on the tragedy of the love between the two. This makes the story of "Dream of the Red Chamber" seem very compact. As a result, as soon as the film was released, it received positive reviews. Jia Baoyu, played by Yuan Meiyun, Lin Daiyu played by Zhou Xuan, and Xue Baochao played by Wang Danfeng, have all been recognized by the audience.

Wang Xifeng is the main character in the development of "Bao Dai Love".
She is played by Bai Hong.
In the 1930s and 1940s, the name of the white rainbow could be described as "thunderous". Like Zhou Xuan, she is both a "singer" and a "movie star".
White Rainbow
Bai Hong debuted very early, became a member of the Mingyue Song and Dance Troupe at the age of 11, won the first place in the singing competition at the age of 14, and became the earliest "pop music" singer in China. Since then, Bai Hong has developed mainly in popular songs, and she is also the first singer in China to hold a pop song concert. As many as 150 songs were recorded, and in terms of quantity alone, she sang second only to Zhou Xuan.
In 1938, Bai Hong participated in the "Blue Bird Troupe" organized by Yu Ling and others, and played Si Feng in Cao Yu's famous work "Thunderstorm", which was well received. Because of the good role played in the drama, Bai Hong later participated in the filming of the movie "Sunrise", and gradually developed from popular music to film, shooting dozens of films such as "The Three Musketeers", "Wang Xifeng's Big Trouble in NingGuofu", "Leaving hate the sky" and so on.
Poster of "Wang Xifeng Makes a Big Fuss in Ningguo Mansion"
In "Wang Xifeng Makes a Big Fuss in Ningguo Mansion", Bai Hong's female costume as a man plays Jia Rong, not Wang Xifeng, until Bu Wancang filmed "Dream of the Red Chamber", Bai Hong played the role of Wang Xifeng in it. In 1943, Bai Hong fainted on the stage because she was too tired during the rehearsal of the opera "Phoenix In Flight". She was sick for a long time. The role of Wang Xifeng in "Dream of the Red Chamber" is her third film after her return from illness. Compared with before, the white rainbow at this time has become more mature. Her screen image is also gradually changing.
Wang Xifeng, played by Bai Hong, is the main character of Bu Wancang's version of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Stills, Wang Xifeng on the right
Jia Baoyu's love affair with Lin Daiyu was blocked by Lady Wang, who preferred her niece Xue Baochao even more. But seeing that Jia Baoyu was so obsessed with Lin Daiyu, he couldn't think of any way to make Jia Baoyu and Xue Baochao become intimate. At this time, Wang Xifeng came out and advised Lady Wang, so Lady Wang, Jia Mu, Wang Xifeng and others used the "bag drop plan" to make Jia Baoyu marry Xue Baochao. Lin Daiyu vomited blood and died after hearing about it. After Jia Baoyu understood the truth, he also lost all his thoughts and became a monk. Therefore, in Bu Wancang's version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Wang Xifeng is a completely negative character, and is the main driver of the love tragedy between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu.
Wang Xifeng, played by Bai Hong
Bai Hong was only 24 years old when she played Wang Xifeng. It is reasonable to say that this age is similar to the age of Wang Xifeng in "Dream of the Red Chamber", because the young people in "Dream of the Red Chamber", such as Wang Xifeng, Jia Lian, Qin Keqing and others, are basically in their 20s. Jia Baoyu Lin Daiyu and others also looked like teenagers. Unfortunately, Wang Xifeng, played by Bai Hong, looks very old.
But we can't help but admit that Bai Hong's role of Wang Xifeng in the main drama "Dream of the Red Chamber" for the first time is still very successful. Temperament personality is in line with the original characters, do not see their people, first hear their voices, personality spicy, assertive, decisive. Wang Xifeng herself is a person with an aura, so it is very appropriate to choose Bai Hong, a "singer" and "movie star" to play. In Bu Wancang's version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", in addition to Zhou Xuan's Lin Daiyu, Yuan Meiyun's Jia Baoyu and Wang Danfeng's Xue Baochao, Wang Xifeng, who belongs to Baihong, is very colorful.
If the makeup is designed to be a little younger, it may work better.
02
In the 1962 Hong Kong Shaw film "Dream of the Red Chamber", Wang Xifeng played Gao Baoshu
"Dream of the Red Chamber" movie is not easy to shoot, it has rich scenes, many characters, complex clues, and it is very difficult for Hito to show the story of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in one or two hundred minutes. Therefore, for most photographers, choose a clever perspective: the love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu.
Like Bu Wancang's "Dream of the Red Chamber", the 1962 Hong Kong Shaw Brothers film "Dream of the Red Chamber" also focuses on the love between Bao Dai and Bao Dai.
Director Yuan Qiufeng, after portraying the faces of the sentient beings in daguanyuan, focused the main clues of the story on "Bao Dai love". Highlights the love triangle between Baoyu, Daiyu and Xue Baochao. Like Bu Wancang's Dream of the Red Chamber, the tragedy maker of Shao's Dream of the Red Chamber is also Wang Xifeng. On baoyu's wedding night, he opened the flower palanquin to welcome his relatives and found that the person in the palanquin was not Daiyu, and he was immediately very sad.

It is said that when the film was released that year, many female audiences could not stand this scene and fainted. It can be seen that this movie has its own charm.
Shaw's "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a Huangmei opera movie. Therefore, its costumes are more similar to the form of opera, and the overall feeling is very mysterious and gorgeous.
Lin Daiyu, played by Lottie
As a classical masterpiece, the image of the main characters in "Dream of the Red Chamber" has been depicted by Cao Xueqin. But in specific shooting, it is not easy to find the right actor. Lin Daiyu in Shaw's "Dream of the Red Chamber" is played by Lottie. When this film was released, Lin Daiyu, played by Lottie, was well received and was called "the most beautiful Lin Daiyu" and "regenerated Lin Daiyu" by the media at the time, which can be described as quite high. However, according to the current aesthetic vision, Lin Daiyu, played by Lottie, is still a bit old!
Wang Xifeng is played by Gao Baoshu.
Wang Xifeng, played by Gao Baoshu
She joined Shaw Pictures as an actress in 1958. He has played many roles and is an actor with a wide range of plays, known as the "Actor of a Thousand Faces".
The role of Wang Xifeng, played by her, is remarkable, and the characteristics of Wang Xifeng are well expressed in terms of personality, which can be described as outstanding. However, like the other actors in Shaw's "Dream of the Red Chamber", the shape of the characters in the "Red Chamber" is not clear enough, and most of the actors' faces are very vague, and they can't tell who is who. If it is not in a specific occasion and character language, Wang Xifeng, played by Gao Baoshu, is difficult to identify.
Shaw's "Dream of the Red Chamber" has some relationship with the writer Zhang Ailing. In the late 1950s, the Hong Kong Film Company wanted to shoot "Dream of the Red Chamber", and they invited the famous writer Zhang Ailing to be the screenwriter. Zhang Ailing did her best to come to Hong Kong to write a script. However, Zhang Ailing's script review was unsatisfactory many times, and in the process of continuous revision, Shaw Pictures preemptively filmed the Huangmei opera film "Dream of the Red Chamber", so the film Maoye Company's "Dream of the Red Chamber" had to be terminated. Zhang Ailing wasted her efforts, and even did not get the script fee.

In the 1975 Hong Kong wireless version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Wang Xifeng played Zheng Shaoping
In 1975, Hong Kong TVB filmed "Dream of the Red Chamber".
It's a unit drama.
At that time, many celebrities were gathered: Wang Mingquan played Lin Daiyu, Wu Weiguo played Jia Baoyu, Lu Youhui played Xue Baochao, and Huang Xingxiu played Qingwen. Zhou Runfa, who was still a cream student at the time, also played the role of Jiang Yuhan in it.
The wireless version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" was also welcomed by Hong Kong audiences. It is a pity that Wang Mingquan was 28 years old when she played Lin Daiyu, which was too far from the age of Lin Daiyu in the original work, so the Lin Daiyu she played was also called "the oldest Lin Daiyu in history." "
The wireless version of Wang Xifeng is played by Zheng Shaoping.
Wang Xifeng, played by Zheng Shaoping
To tell the truth, as the main character in "Dream of the Red Chamber", Wang Xifeng, played by Zheng Shaoping, is not satisfactory. Like other characters in "Dream of the Red Chamber", it is easier to deduce the personality of the original character, but it is more difficult to be close to the description of the original in terms of external image. Wang Xifeng, played by Zheng Shaoping, is too vague and too gentle, and does not have wang Xifeng's decisive aura.
Like Lin Daiyu, played by Wang Mingquan, it is not brilliant overall.
04
In 1977, Hong Kong Shaw's "Dream of the Red Chamber with Golden Jade Liangyuan", Wang Xifeng played Hu Jin
Following the acclaim of the 1962 film Dream of the Red Chamber, in 1977, Hong Kong Shaw Pictures once again launched "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Dream of the Red Chamber
This is also a Huangmei drama movie.
It seems that Shaw Pictures likes Huangmei opera very much.
There are also a lot of big names in it. For example, Lin Qingxia anti-string Jia Baoyu, Zhang Aijia plays Lin Daiyu, and Xie Tingfeng's mother Deborah plays Zi Juan.
Hu Jin plays Wang Xifeng.
Wang Xifeng, played by Hu Jin
Compared with the previous Wang Xifeng, Wang Xifeng, played by Hu Jin, is a great improvement. As a professional actor, Hu Jin's acting skills are not to be said, what is valuable is the external image - it cannot be denied that any character in "Dream of the Red Chamber" is not played by anyone, and whether the external image is in line with the description of the original work is very critical, which shows the actor's own conditions and the makeup artist's skills.
Hu Jin's version of Wang Xifeng has more distinctive characteristics, a pair of Dan phoenix eyes, a pair of willow leaf eyebrows, like a smile rather than a smile, like anger rather than anger, especially the eyes are very deep, making people unable to see through. This is a good expression of Wang Xifeng's external image and inner character. Compared with Bai Hong and Zheng Shaoping's version of Wang Xifeng, Hu Jin's version of Wang Xifeng is very suitable for age, and the old way is permeated with youth, not as old as Bai Hong and Zheng Shaoping.
The overall quality of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is superior. The choice of actors is mostly remarkable. After all, it is the work of famous director Li Hanxiang.
Jia Baoyu played by Lin Qingxia
Unfortunately, Lin Daiyu, played by Zhang Aijia, is somewhat old, not as beautiful as Jia Baoyu, who is lin Qingxia's anti-string.
05
In the 1977 Hong Kong version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Wu Huanyi played Wang Xifeng
In the 1970s, There was a boom in "Dream of the Red Chamber" in Hong Kong, and the film and television circles continued to shoot film and television dramas with the theme of "Dream of the Red Chamber". But most of them are cut from a fragment to interpret, such as focusing on the love between Jia Baoyu and Lin Daiyu. Therefore, under this wave of enthusiasm, Hong Kong Jiayi TV shot a large-scale TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber", with a total of 70 episodes, using more than 300 actors to reflect the story of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in a panoramic manner. This is the largest TELEVISION series in the history of Hong Kong television, and its main feature is that it interprets most of the wonderful plot of the original book.

Wang Xifeng is a very characteristic character.
Cao Xueqin's description of her is:
A pair of Danfeng triangular eyes, two curved willow leaves hanging eyebrows, slim body, physique, powder face with spring power is not revealed, Dan lips did not smile before smelling.
In the choice of Wang Xifeng actor, first of all, the external image must have characteristics, and secondly, there must be an aura that is not angry and arrogant. Wang Xifeng is a figure who has made up power, and if the image does not reflect the aura, he will not be able to hold his feet. Although the external image of Wang Xifeng, played by Bai Hong, is very old, she acts well and has a strong aura, so the performance overshadows the lack of image, but can be brilliant; Hu Jin's version of Wang Xifeng also wins in the external image; Wu Huanyi is a person with physical characteristics, and the Wang Xifeng she starred in is more recognizable than Bao Daichao and others.
06
In 1983, Taiwan's Huashi "Dream of the Red Chamber", Li Lifeng played Wang Xifeng
In 1983, Taiwan's Huashi filmed "Dream of the Red Chamber", which had 16 episodes.
This is a unit drama, which selects the essence of "Dream of the Red Chamber" for interpretation.
Among them, Wang Xifeng is played by Li Lifeng.
07
In the 87th version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Deng Jie played Wang Xifeng
Among all the current "Dream of the Red Chamber" film and television dramas, 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" has the highest artistic achievements and is known as "a wonderful chapter in the history of Chinese television". The reasons for the success were manifold, there were script reasons, there were many experts and scholars involved at that time, providing a lot of guidance to the crew; there were reasons for the choice of actors. 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" is all new people, and the actors are carefully selected from all over the country. Therefore, we finally see that whether it is Lin Daiyu, Jia Baoyu or Wang Xifeng, they all have a strong degree of recognition. When we think of the "Red Chamber" characters now, our first impression is that of the characters in 87's "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Part of the character image of the 87 TV series "Dream of the Red Chamber"
It can be seen that this "Dream of the Red Chamber" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Wang Xifeng, played by Deng Jie, is particularly outstanding. Many experts especially appreciate Deng Jie's performance. Screenwriter Zhou Ling said: "I think the best actor is Deng Jie. Red scholar Feng Qiyong said: "Whether in terms of appearance or performance, it can match the original book." He also thought that Deng Jie's performance was even better than Chen Xiaoxu's. The general favor of experts also made Deng Jie win the Best Supporting Actress Award at the 5th Volkswagen Television Golden Eagle Awards.
Wang Xifeng, played by Deng Jie
Deng Jie playing Wang Xifeng is not smooth sailing. There were several actors competing for Wang Xifeng that year. The most powerful opponents are Le Yun and Zhou Yue. Especially Le Yun, when the appearance came out, even Deng Jie was convinced: "The Le Yun in the lens looks even more beautiful than usual, the beautiful eyebrows of the willow leaves, the dan phoenix eyes of the flowing hope, and the long figure, it is a Wang Xifeng!" And Deng Jie was short in stature and had a dark face.
Rhymes
Many people in the crew advised Deng Jie to prepare for the worst. Deng Jie said doubtfully, "What a bad plan, I will not let me play any role." But I entered Sister Feng's play, and I couldn't get out. Even so, Deng Jie had no bottom in her heart. She also left a way out for herself, and in addition to Wang Xifeng, she also rehearsed Ping'er's play. But the situation is always unexpected, and Le Yun suddenly quit playing Wang Xifeng. Afterwards, I learned that Le Yun's mother was unwilling, believing that Wang Xifeng was not a good person and would not let Le Yun act. This created an opportunity for Deng Jie.
So between Zhou Yue, Yu Lan, and Deng Jie, it was finally Deng Jie who won and performed the 87 version of Wang Xifeng. As for Le Yun's resignation to play Wang Xifeng, the crew also felt very sorry, because they were generally optimistic about Le Yun and were puzzled by Le Yun's mother's strong desire to control.

But no matter what, Deng Jie seized the opportunity and created a vivid image of Wang Xifeng!

In the movie "Dream of the Red Chamber", Liu Xiaoqing played Wang Xifeng
The success of 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" contributed to a "Dream of the Red Chamber" fever, followed by the movie "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Wang Xifeng played by Liu Xiaoqing (left)
Frankly speaking, the movie "Dream of the Red Chamber" is not as successful as imagined. One of the main reasons for this is that after all, the movie does not have a series as long as a TV series, and it is difficult to interpret the story of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in a panoramic way. This is the shortcoming of the 89 movie "Dream of the Red Chamber", the storyline seems to be piled up, not compact, there is no drama of ups and downs, and the overall plot is too bland.
Liu Xiaoqing plays Wang Xifeng.
To tell the truth, as a film and television star, Liu Xiaoqing's acting skills have nothing to say. It is said that when 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" was filmed, it also thought of using stars like Liu Xiaoqing, but gave up because the star's appearance fee was too high. Wang Xifeng, played by Liu Xiaoqing, can also be remarkable, she herself is a character with her own aura and aura, so on the whole, she seems to be able to hold her feet and have her characteristics. But it is very regrettable that because Wang Xifeng, played by Deng Jie, is too wonderful and too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, it has covered Liu Xiaoqing's Wang Xifeng.

It can only be said that Liu Xiaoqing's luck is not very good!

Taiwan's Huashi 96 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber", Xu Guiying played Wang Xifeng
Huashi's 96 version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a large-scale production, up to 73 episodes, and is a panoramic long-form TV series reflecting "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Huashi "Dream of the Red Chamber"
Compared with 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber", the storyline of 96 "Dream of the Red Chamber" is more delicate and comprehensive, and strives to conform to the original work. The director even intuitively shows the plot of Jia Yucun's search for stone nerd painting fans, which is a very story-based TV series.
If 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a pure literary work, Yangchun White Snow, then 96 "Dream of the Red Chamber" is a popular literary work, is "Story Club".
Xu Guiying played Wang Xifeng in it.
Wang Xifeng, played by Xu Guiying
Through the makeup point of view, Xu Guiying's Wang Xifeng has her characteristics and is very recognizable.
We can compare Xu Guiying's Wang Xifeng with Hu Jin, Wu Huanyi, Li Lifeng, and Deng Jie's Wang Xifeng, and we can find a very big common point: willow leaves hanging eyebrows, Dan Feng's triangular eyes, as long as we firmly grasp Cao Xueqin's description of Wang Xifeng in "Dream of the Red Chamber", that look will come out!
Huashi 96's "Dream of the Red Chamber" preference for Wang Xifeng is obvious. She has many lines, some of which are in Cao Xueqin's original work, and some of which are added according to the preferences of modern audiences, in order to expand Wang Xifeng's role. For example, in the scene where Lin Daiyu enters the Jia Mansion, Wang Xifeng gushes out a lot of words, showing his ability through all aspects, which is very exaggerated.
But in any case, Wang Xifeng, played by Xu Guiying, is still very good.
10
Sichuan opera TV series "Wang Xifeng", Liu Ping played Wang Xifeng
The TV series "Wang Xifeng" is a Sichuan drama directed by Ouyang Fenqiang.
The actor of the Sichuan opera version of "Wang Xifeng" is even more difficult to choose, first of all, to be able to sing Sichuan opera, and secondly, the appearance image should be similar to the original description.
Wang Xifeng, played by Liu Ping, feels okay. In particular, the main features of "willow leaf hanging eyebrows" and "Danfeng triangle eyes" have been captured.
But because it is a Sichuan opera and is relatively niche, we don't have to be too harsh.
11
In Li Shaohong's version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" in 2010, Yao Di played Wang Xifeng
Director Li Shaohong's "Dream of the Red Chamber" is generally unsatisfactory. The main reasons are: 1, the pursuit of novelty, the result of a feature film into a "documentary" form, too much narration. 2, the actor's face image is not clear, can not distinguish who is who; 3, the shape is thunderous, the copper coin head is annoying. Of course, it also has advantages, that is, the picture is quite beautiful.
Wang Xifeng, played by Yao Di, is not successful, this is not due to acting skills, in fact, everyone's acting skills are similar. The key issue is still in the choice of actors and makeup. Like other actors, Yao Di has a good face but no features, and Wang Xifeng's "willow leaf eyebrows" and "Dan Feng eyes" are not reflected. This still needs to go back to what we said earlier: the characters in "Dream of the Red Chamber" are not played by any actor: they must conform to Cao Xueqin's description! For example, the description of Jia Baoyu is:
The face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the color is like the flower of spring dawn, the sideburns are like knives, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, the nose is like a hanging gall, and the eyes are like autumn waves. Although angry and sometimes laughing, that is, looking at it and feeling it.
The description of Lin Daiyu is:
Two bends like a cage of smoke eyebrows, a pair of eyes that seem to be happy or not happy. The state of two sorrows, the illness of the body. Tears lit up, and the panting was slight. Idle like flowers shining on the water, action like a weak willow wind.
The reason for the success of 87 "Dream of the Red Chamber" is that the first point is that the actors are well chosen.
Try to compare Jia Baoyu played by Ouyang Fenqiang and Jia Baoyu played by Yu Xiaotong, who is more in line with the description of the original work?
Two versions of Jia Baoyu contrast
Therefore, if you want to succeed in filming "Dream of the Red Chamber", you must first pass the "actor pass"!
The actors conformed to the description of the original book, and they were basically half successful!
Unfortunately, Yao Di and "Wang Xifeng"'s feelings are far apart!
The image of Wang Xifeng played by different actors
No better than Wang Xifeng, played by Xu Guiying!
12
In the TV series "The Legend of Dai Yu", Wang Ziyu played Wang Xifeng
"The Biography of Daiyu" takes the love between Lin Daiyu and Jia Baoyu as the main line. It is a series with a very normal storyline, there is no special novelty, both the choice of scenes and the shaping of the characters are exquisite and beautiful, so it looks clean and clean, pleasing to the eye.
However, this drama as a whole gives people a sense of "violation": it shoots the theme of "Dream of the Red Chamber", but the characters in it seem to be far away from the "Dream of the Red Chamber", Jia Baoyu is not like Jia Baoyu, Lin Daiyu is not like Lin Daiyu, giving people the feeling of being very trance and very distant.
This is very strange.
Wang Xifeng, played by Wang Ziyu
Wang Xifeng, played by Wang Ziyu, is remarkable. The shape of the character is more consistent with the description of the original work, and the recognition is relatively high. Obviously, the director and makeup artist have also put a lot of effort into it.
Compared with Deng Jie and others, it may be a little worse, but at least it is much better than Yao Di's Wang Xifeng!
summary
"Dream of the Red Chamber" is not finished.
The film and television drama of "Dream of the Red Chamber" will never be finished.
The "Dream of the Red Chamber" made by different directors is different, but everyone is trying to make a new idea, and it is very difficult to make the audience accept it.
But no matter how to innovate, one thing is fixed: its character story has been fixed, and only by trying to get close to Cao Xueqin's description can we restore "Dream of the Red Chamber" to the greatest extent possible, so that the characters in the book become a flowing picture. If you can't grasp the key characteristics of the character, you will fall short!
The image comparison of Wang Xifeng played by different actors
Therefore, when remaking "Dream of the Red Chamber" in the future, we should do our best to choose actors who are consistent with Cao Xueqin's description to reflect the feeling of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
Now, the audience is most looking forward to the film "Dream of the Red Chamber" by director Hu Mei, and the actors of Bao Daichao already know that they do not know who Wang Xifeng plays.
If Wang Xifeng chooses well, this play will be half successful!
Let's wait and see!
