"Chivalrous Woman Riot Elimination" is a TV version of "Thirteen Sisters of Chivalrous Women", also known as "Woman in Red", the protagonist of the play, He Yufeng, is played by the famous Peking Opera performance artist Li Shengsu, who has also played major roles in television such as "The First Pass in the World" and "Jiangxia Female Thief"; The master of the Thirteenth Sister, Deng Jiugong, is played by the Peking Opera master Yuan Shihai; the villain Ji Xiantang in the film is played by Li Junfeng, who plays the role of the imperial court's minion iron Luohan in the film version. The following is Mr. Yuan Shihai's memoirs about this film:
One morning, I took advantage of the fact that Deng Jiugong's shooting was not yet his turn, and went for a walk by the green lake. While walking, he pondered, deng Jiugong seemed to have shortcomings in his hands... I looked back at the script, there were beggars who received the copper coins of the thirteen sisters, there were people with weapons... So, what about leisure at home? Drink tea, hold a cup of tea... Too cheesy. smoke...... Not ideal. There should be something more chic, to be able to reflect the heroic old hero... Just as I was walking uphill by the green lake, an old man came from the opposite side, rubbing two large iron balls in his hands. At the moment of passing by, I suddenly felt, isn't this exactly what is needed?
"Old comrade, show me the iron ball in your hand?"
The old man turned and took a step back and handed me the iron ball in his hand.
I took the iron ball, my right hand was flattened, my legs were naturally separated, and while standing in a figure-eight step, I opened the down vest with my left hand behind me, forked it to my waist, and closed my eyes slightly, just like a full of spirit Deng Jiugong!
When I opened my eyes, I saw the old man and several passers-by who had stopped to watch were smiling at me. I also laughed a little embarrassed.
"Where do you live?"
"Uphill."
"At that time, will I make a TV series and use it?"
"Yes. The pattern, size, and size of this iron ball are many, and there are many bigger ones than this..."
"It's better to be twice as big!" Do you know where to sell it?"
"Little West Gate, not far away."
"That's it, how do you go?" At this question, all the onlookers spoke, go east and then turn west, and more kind people said: "You follow me!"
Three times five divided by two, I bought a pair of large iron balls and a pair of smaller stone balls that were much larger than this one and could be rotated in my hands.
After a few more days, it was finally ten o'clock in the morning to get dressed up and shoot Deng Jiugong. However, the assistant director handed a note from the door crack early in the morning to change the notice to the evening, and the result was that it was raining.
On the winding mountain road, looking out from the car window, in the drizzle, the sky is light, the lake is light, the mountains are black, the trees are black, and the lights are dotted. The car was on the edge of the suspension, and after a few sharp turns, everyone knew that the Taihua Temple should arrive.
The garden inside taihua temple has been used as the private back garden of the red willow house where Deng Jiu gong lived in the home. The lights are not yet ready. Straight past 10:30 p.m., the first shot was shot, and in the second episode, Deng Jiugong heard Cheng fly into the rumor and passed smoothly. Then in the fourth episode, a black shadow flashed out, and after seven shots, it was already 2:30 at night, and it was exactly five o'clock in the morning before falling asleep.
Two days later, I changed the scenery to the Grand View Building to shoot the garden party on March 3. I dressed up and went to the scene.
The footage of the thirteenth sister meeting Zhao Jie and Ji Jianwen immediately is being filmed. None of them could ride horses, and the three borrowed military horses were honest. It was only when the black wind monk who played Nengren Temple came on horseback, he had to ride three horses together, and when the road was narrow and the black wind monk was squeezed off the horse, one of the shoes stuck on the stirrups automatically flew out and landed in the lake. The martial arts master from the Yellow Bridge played the sixth son of the Black Wind Monk, got up from the ground and rubbed his sore ass vigorously, angrily took off the other shoe he was still wearing on his foot and threw it into the lake fiercely, leaving the shoes in pairs in the lake as a permanent memorial. Liuzi was barefoot and covered his hips, and went to the clothing box to find shoes, but unfortunately, only a pair of small pink embroidered shoes were left in the box, so he had to grit his teeth and pull them on. Everyone and I were shocked and laughed, and it was even more difficult to stop laughing when I saw him pulling a pair of pink shoes that could not get in.
The scene where the thirteenth sister meets An Gongzi begins filming.
The thirteenth sister gathered enough courage to turn over on the horse, and the horse stepped forward.
"Relax the rope!"
The most obedient horse in the hands of the thirteenth sister was obedient, and saw the horse speed up and trot on the willow-lined lake path.
"Don't be afraid" "Don't shake your waist!" If you clamp your legs around the horse's belly, you won't be able to fall!" In the shouting guidance of the horse training coach, Li Shengsu, who played the thirteenth sister, successfully rode a test run.
When the shooting began, li Shengsu, who was smart and brave, like a long-term riding skilled person, quickly completed this shot.
In the water pavilion across the lake, a young man, An Gongzi, was watching the woman in red gallop by on horseback.
As I was waiting to be photographed, I saw all this in my eyes and was happy in my heart. I liked and was very optimistic about this little girl who played the thirteenth sister, and I paid special attention to her. She is an outstanding student of Hebei Opera School, a member of our Peking Opera industry, and the successor of a new generation. That morning, I went to the second move, saw that she was dancing the sword, and felt that it was enough to play "Overlord Farewell", "The Legend of the White Snake" and "Lian Jinfeng". When talking to her, she is calm, calm, and much more mature than her age. This horseback riding shows her bravery, courage and receptivity. If you sing well and have enough voice, it must be a good billet for Danjiao.
That's right, a few years later, one of her plays "Lian Jinfeng" won the Plum Blossom Award. I looked at it and said, unfortunately she was not in Beijing.
A few years later, Li Shengsu entered the Peking Opera House in China. I smiled heartily.
In a teahouse during the filming, an old man plays the piano and a little girl sings a small song. The tea guests, men, women and children, all listened with relish. An old beggar walked in trembling and crowded into the crowd, and a tea guest felt that it was dirty, flicked his sleeves, and sniffed his nose. These tea guests were all played by waiters recruited by the Kunming Military Region. Look at the fat gray-bearded member who drank tea, it was Director Yang of the second-trick canteen.
Four dozen men rampaged into the teahouse, reached out and pushed the old beggar who was begging for the road to stand unsteadily, fell backwards on the steps, and fell heavily to the ground. At this time, a string of money was handed to him, the old beggar looked up sharply, and the woman in red stood in front of him, saying: "This is not a place to stay, take the money and leave quickly!" She picked up the beggar. The old beggar looked at the thirteenth sister who walked up the steps and nodded in admiration!
This is Deng Jiugong posing as an old beggar begging for food. The slow every move, the unclosed mouth, revealing only two or three teeth left, the look of pity and begging, with the help of the makeup artist, outlined the image of the old beggar.
Among them, the old beggar was pushed back a few steps and fell to the ground, repeatedly shooting four times: the first time it did not reach the position; The second time he fell too low, the thirteenth sister could not pick him up; The third time is appropriate, the thirteenth sister line is not read correctly; The fourth time the director passed.
The more onlookers gathered, they praised this beggar for acting vividly, and they were all guessing who played this old beggar? Poor and aging costumes have made the actor's face difficult to discern, but I feel that his eyes are particularly sensitive, useful, and the performance is so natural and skilled. Who the hell is he? What movies have you acted in? He's no ordinary actor!
Everyone couldn't help but ask questions to the crew. I don't know who said: "He acted in "Wild Boar Forest"!"
"It's Yuan Shihai, playing Lu Zhishen!" Immediately there was a lot of talk.
"Old artist! It's not ordinary!"
"How good that fell with his head, so old..."
"Fall with your head so many times, it's okay to stand up!" That's called merit!"
Most of the shots, I Deng Jiugong shot very smoothly. For example, when going to the Golden Palace to shoot the scene of martial arts training, Deng Jiugong jumped up and broke the thick branches with the dragon head crutch, from the design to the shooting, the directors were very satisfied.
Difference in profession makes one feel worlds apart. There are many times when they encounter difficult problems and do not go well! Don't enter the door, don't know the suffering in the line...
