In 1992, a costume mythological drama based on the "Legend of Leifeng Pagoda" by the owner of Yushan mountain and the "Complete Biography of the White Snake" by the owner of the Dream Flower Hall began to be premiered in Taiwan Province of China, and the following year, the play was introduced to Chinese mainland meet with the national audience, and quickly achieved a strong response. Since its broadcast, this drama has been a must-play drama for major tv stations every summer vacation, and the plot and actors in the play have been often mentioned by the audience until now, becoming a classic drama series juxtaposed with "Journey to the West", "Legend of the Eagle Shooter", and "Huan Zhu Gege". And this drama is "The Legend of the New White Lady" starring Zhao Yazhi, Ye Tong, Chen Meiqi and others.
I don't think I need to say too much about the classicity of this show, you just look at the number of reruns of it to know how popular it is. With the passage of time, the scenes in the play have long become indelible good memories in the hearts of the audience, and the roles of Bai Suzhen of Zhao Yazhi, Xu Xian of Ye Tong, and Xiaoqing of Chen Meiqi have long become the eternal classic screen images in everyone's hearts.
The reason why "The Legend of the New White Lady" has become a classic is that in addition to the success of casting and the excellent performance of the actors, the script, music, scene selection and other aspects are remarkable. And this is also not forgotten by us, as well as the excellent performance of the voice actors.
Although the actors in the play have been famous in the show business circle for a long time and are all good actors in everyone's hearts, due to the actor's language, timbre and other reasons, if the original sound is used, it will inevitably make the audience have a sense of abruptness, and at this time, the voice actors have their own stage to play. We can even say that the success of "The Legend of the New White Lady" is no less credited to the voice actors than Zhao Yazhi, Ye Tong, Chen Meiqi and others. Today, let's revisit these behind-the-scenes heroes and learn about the story of the voice actors behind The Legend of the New White Lady.
In the play, Bai Suzhen is voiced by the famous voice actor Zhang Zhonghui. As early as the 1980s, Zhang Zhonghui had already dubbed Zhao Yazhi, and in 1987, Zhao Yazhi starred in the TV series "Jinghua Smoke Cloud" based on Lin Yutang's novel of the same name, in which he played the main character Yao Mulan, and it was Zhang Zhonghui who voiced Zhao Yazhi at that time. In addition to Bai Suzhen and Yao Mulan, the three princesses in "East becomes west", Li Xiaohuan in "Fang Shiyu" and other characters are voiced by Zhang Zhonghui.
Now Zhang Zhonghui has basically quit the dubbing industry and has four children, and when the "New White" crew reunited a while ago, we finally saw her true face of Lushan.
The voice actor who voiced Xu Xian was veteran voice actor Liu Xiaoyun. Born in 1967, Liu Xiaoyun is a children's show host in addition to her voice work. In elementary school, Liu Xiaoyun had already stepped into the dubbing circle to learn from Wu Li and other famous artists, and began to dub TV commercials.
The biggest feature of Liu Xiaoyun's voice is sweet and clear and flexible, and it can be changed by one person to decorate multiple angles. In "The Legend of the New White Lady", in addition to Xu Xian, Xu Shilin, Cai Yin, Chen Yujuan and other roles are all dubbed by her. In addition, dai zhuoyi in the "Happy Ghost" series, Qi Meng in "Gamble Saint", He Min in "Truant Weilong", Guoshi in "East becomes West", Tingting in "Fang Shiyu 2" and other classic characters are also voiced by Liu Xiaoyun.
After 2002, Liu Xiaoyun began to devote herself to the "Disney" TV series, cartoons, film dubbing and voice director (foreman) and other work.
There are two voices for Xiaoqing, one is Chen Meizhen and the other is Du Suzhen. Chen Meizhen is also a very remarkable voice actress, she worked on radio in her early years, and then devoted herself to dubbing work. In "The Legend of the New White Lady" alone, she voiced Xiao Qing, Guanyin, Yin Baolian, Wu Yulian, Madame Chen, And Little Lady. In addition, the works we are familiar with, such as Shangguan Wuji in "The Legend of Xiang Shuai", Murong Jiu and Qixing in "Peerless Double Glory", Nobita in "Doraemon", and Mrs. Pang Rui in "Harry Potter", are all voiced by Chen Meizhen.
Du Suzhen is also a well-known voice actor, in addition to "The Legend of the New White Lady", Li Mingfang in "Wanjun", Qin Cao in "The Great Inner Secret Agent Zero Zero Hair", Miao Cuihua in "Fang Shiyu", etc., are all voiced by her.
The voice actor for Fahai is Chen Mingyang. Chen Mingyang has a thick voice, known as the "Dubbing Emperor" and "Father of the Dubbing World", in addition, he is also the master of the famous voice actor Shi Banyu. In "The Legend of the New White Lady", Chen Mingyang voices many characters such as Fahai, King Jin Cymbal, Wu Renjie, Antarctic Xian weng and so on, but people do not have the slightest sense of violation. In addition, Chen Mingyang also contracted the dubbing of almost all the films of Zheng Zeshi and Cheng Kui'an, and the sounds we heard that matched the physical fitness of the two were actually sent by Chen Mingyang.
As Chen Mingyang's apprentice, Shi Banyu naturally participated in the dubbing of "The Legend of the New White Lady", and Li Gongfu, Bai Fu, Bai Ape, Liang Lian and other roles were voiced by Shi Banyu. However, it is clear that the most brilliant place of Shi Banyu is not in "The Legend of the New White Lady", but in the works of Stephen Chow. Since the first time he voiced Stephen Chow in 1990, he has become the royal voice of Stephen Chow, and we can even say that the success of Stephen Chow is inseparable from Shi Banyu's outstanding performance.
In addition to the above voice actors, Yang Shaowen, Sun Zhongtai, Lei Weiyuan, Jiang Zhenjin, Li Xiangsheng, Wang Peter and others who have done the dubbing work for "The Legend of the New White Lady" are also Yang Shaowen, Sun Zhongtai, Lei Weiyuan, Jiang Zhenjin, Li Xiangsheng, Wang Peter and so on. They are also the heroes behind the success of "The Legend of the New White Lady".
Let's pay tribute to these wonderful voice actors for bringing us such a great work.
