"Long years, want to say that the year was so confusing, but also true and illusory, sad and happy have been there..." From the domestic TV series "Longing" broadcast, a full 30 years have passed.
Unexpectedly, the powerful old drama bones who relied on this drama to go out of the circle could actually get together again, which evoked the memories of many people's youth.
How popular was "Longing" back then? I am afraid that many new generations of young people do not know much, and those who have memories should be watched with their parents and parents.
However, the status of this drama in domestic TV dramas is on a par with the old version of "Journey to the West", if exaggerated, it is actually even worse.
As a 50-episode large-scale youth love mother-in-law ethics drama, "Longing" very appropriately combines the background of the times in the play, and at the same time cleverly and truly reflects the lives of young people at present.
Attractive, good-looking, worth pondering repeatedly, is a good work must have several elements.
If "Journey to the West" is only to inherit the classical Chinese culture, then "Longing" can be said to have opened the precedent of domestic family ethics dramas, and even later introduced to South Korea, and major radio stations took turns to broadcast.
This popularity is simply the "fire out of the circle" of the year...
The screenwriters and actors involved in the creation have basically established their position in the show business circle with this drama.
Li Xuejian, Zhang Kaili, Sun Song, and Han Ying have all become teachers who continue to learn and strive to surpass their descendants.
At that time, Zhao Baogang was only an assistant director of this drama, and his later works could more or less find the shadow of "Longing".
To make an appropriate analogy, how familiar the post-90s are with "Huan Zhu Gege", how familiar the 7080 generation is with "Longing", so far the actress Zhang Kaili appeared in public, or will be recognized by the audience as the heroine of the play Liu Huifang.
This kind of deeply rooted in people's hearts is really not just talking. In addition, not only is the plot of the play wonderful, but the shooting and production process behind it is also quite a lot to watch.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > perfect heroine casting storm</h1>
If you talk about the story behind the shooting of "Longing", you have to mention the casting of the entire crew and the inner control of the stars, under the coincidence, it is simply a wonderful.
In the play, the heroine Liu Huifang can be said to combine all the domestic cognition of the perfect woman: young and beautiful, kind-hearted, hard-working and bear the burden of humiliation.
She was loved by almost all of her audience friends, watching this beautiful woman on the TV every night, and was described by the media as a "village of ten thousand people".
The starting point of the whole story is also triggered by Liu Huifang's feelings, and at the same time, she does not know how to make a choice in the face of two suitors.
For such a beloved image, Zhang Kaili's performance perfectly interprets the characteristics of Liu Huifang and achieves the effect of human-drama integration, and her acting skills have also been well received since then.
However, such a "fragrant feast" was not prepared for Zhang Kaili at the beginning, and before that, she was only a small actor with no fame.
Lu Xiaowei, the director of "Longing", once revealed that when he was not yet turned on, the Liu Huifang in his heart actually belonged to another actress - Yang Qing, not Zhang Kaili.
He also let Yang Qing take over this play, 9 visits to the door to achieve cooperation, which is enough to see his thirst for talents.
Mention Yang Qing, presumably everyone is still very familiar with her now, after all, she is also an old drama bone, a first-class actor of the National Drama Theatre, and is often active in the current film and television dramas, playing a role such as a mother.
However, in that year, Yang Qing's popularity was much higher than Zhang Kaili.com.
After graduating from Chinese opera in 1982, Yang Qing spent less than 7 years to get the Plum Blossom Award, when the domestic film and television drama industry had just developed and belonged to a completely immature state, so basically the leading actors were looking for it in the drama industry.
After all, the male protagonist Li Xuejian has also won the Plum Blossom Award, so in the director's mind, the heroine who plays the opposite role should naturally be a person of equal strength.
Unfortunately, Tiangong was not very beautiful, and Yang Qing, who was one step ahead in his career, was in the limelight at that time, and dramas and performances were extremely busy.
In the words of Faye Wong, it is probably "the biggest trouble now, that is, it is too red".
Naturally, the busy Yang Qing is often not at home, which is why the director has visited the door 9 times and has not talked about the most important reason for cooperation.
In Beijing in 1990, communication tools were not yet widespread, and it was difficult to stay in touch.
Just after Lu Xiaowei and Yang Qing had a hard time communicating, both sides were willing to jointly complete the filming of "Longing", things made a moth.
Later, due to the official start time, the two did not negotiate well, and "Desire" was about to start shooting, but Yang Qing still had other work arrangements.
People are not in Beijing at all, what can be done about this?
In a hurry, Lu Xiaowei had to make second-hand preparations and began to look for other candidates suitable for the heroine.
According to Lu Xiaowei's recollection, in order to find a suitable actress "Liu Huifang", the entire crew has worked hard, and the candidates considered among the actresses are Fu Yiwei, Zuo Ling and others.
Actress Zuo Ling may not be familiar to everyone, but Fu Yiwei is also in the limelight that year, but in the same year, she chose to star in Su Daji in the "List of Fengshen Gods", and later won the title of "The Most Beautiful Daji".
In this up and down, the "Desire" crew has never been able to find the most suitable candidate for Liu Huifang, so what did Zhang Kaili, who was unknown at the time, rely on to win the female number one?
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > a simple meal</h1>
In 1990, zhang Kaili, who was already 28 years old, could only be regarded as a small actor.
Before starring in Liu Huifang, she had only acted in one movie, "Eight Girls Throwing The River", which basically did not cause any splash.
And the origin of the military, but also let her have been employed in the coal mine cultural and labor troupe, every day regular fixed point to clock in, is not busy.
The abundance of time gives Zhang Kaili a great advantage.
At that time, she was still in her youth, and the Northeast gene made her peugeot and generous, comfortable and durable, and her personality was also straightforward and cheerful.
At least in terms of image, it is also very compatible with Liu Huifang in the play.
So when Zhang Kaili auditioned Liu Huifang, the whole process became extremely simple.
Later, Lu Xiaowei said that he had a good impression of Zhang Kaili when he first met her, and the cheerful personality of the northern girl was very similar to Liu Huifang's generous and down-to-earth feelings.
It was lunch time, Zhang Kaili said a word, casually said to Lu Xiaowei: "Just eat here, there is nothing delicious." "
Such a simple and seemingly random sentence made Lu Xiaowei immediately find the feeling of "Liu Huifang".
According to media reports, at that time, Lu Xiaowei directly made a decision: "This is Huifang! Afterwards, Zhang Kaili also laughed and said that "a very cheap meal was taken down."
As soon as the heroine was determined, "Longing" began to shoot in full swing.
What makes people laugh bitterly is that at this time, the original heroine Yang Qing's previous work has also ended a paragraph, and there is time to come back to shoot "Longing".
This scene became very embarrassing, seeing that the script that was originally also a favorite, or his own female number one was in vain, Yang Qing's inner thoughts at this time must not mention how complicated, and naturally made Lu Xiaowei feel difficult.
But later, Lu Xiaowei quickly thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.
He used the radical method and Yang Qing to say: "Only actors who can play different roles are a good actor" Successfully made Yang Qing accept the role of female number two Xu Yuejuan.
Although her fame was the highest at that time, she still cooperated well with the arrangement of the crew, so that the whole drama was successfully filmed according to the normal track.
Then again, Zhang Kaili is relying on the favorable time and place, plus his own efforts, with the role of Liu Huifang, which quickly became popular, and became a standard good girlfriend and good wife template in the hearts of countless people.
And she herself, can also be regarded as the achievement of her career development, with "Longing" won the 1991 Popular Television Golden Eagle Award for Best Actress Award and the Beijing TV Chunyan Cup Best Actress Award, and won the first of the top ten actors in the third national television in 1992, which was unanimously described by the media as "debut is the peak".
Now, the "Longing" crew reunites again after 30 years, and although the old drama bones are not young, their spirits are still strong, and they stand on the stage and are full of energy.
In particular, the female advocate Kelly is even more radiant, without the slightest appearance of being destroyed by the years. It's just that people are a little sad that The original heroine Yang Qing could not stand in the C position of the stage and stood in the corner next to Zhang Kaili.
But now, the two teachers have also gained a successful acting career and a successful family life, and have become the old drama bones recognized by the industry, and I hope to see their wonderful works and wider drama paths in the future!
