"Fragrant Mountain Leaves Are Red"
The major revolutionary historical drama "Xiangshan Ye Zhenghong" directed by Battle is being filmed in Hengdian Film and Television City, and the main actors have once again gathered domestic first-line special actors, Tang Guoqiang, Xu Wenguang, Wang Wufu, Guo Lianwen and so on.
"Xiangshan Ye Zhenghong" tells the story of after the peaceful liberation of Peiping in 1949, Chairman Mao led the CPC Central Committee from Xibaipo to Xiangshan to "enter Beijing to catch the examination", liberate all of China, and prepare for the construction of a new China.
Wang Wufu
Actor Wang Wufu once again played the role of Commander-in-Chief Zhu De, who has played this role in hundreds of movies and TV series such as "Founding Father Zhu De", "Eighth Route Army" and "Long March".
Wang Wufu is the first generation of special actors in China, with qualifications comparable to Gu Yue and Wang Tiecheng. In 1984, the state prepared to shoot a large-scale song and dance epic "Song of the Chinese Revolution", and after the Secretariat of the Central Committee compared several groups of special actors, It set Wang Wufu, Gu Yue, and Wang Tiecheng, and now Tang Guoqiang, the leader of special actors, only began to play Mao Zedong in 1996.
The success of this song and dance drama laid the foundation for Wang Wufu's position in the industry among Judet-type actors, and it was also well received by Zhu De's wife, Kang Keqing, and the State Council Cultural Group also wrote comments into his file.
In fact, in this 30-year acting career, Wang Wufu has received many invitations from producers and directors to let him play other roles, but out of his dedication to the cause of special actors, other roles have been resigned by him.
To tell the truth, Wang Wufu missed a lot of fame and profits, but insisting on only playing the role of "Zhu De" also made him gain a lot, and the Marshal Zhu De he played, whether it was Comrade Kang Keqing, the wife of Mr. Zhu, and his relatives, or experts and audiences, gave high praise and recognition.
Don't forget your original intention, Fang de always, now every year Qingming actor Wang Wufu has to go to the tomb of Mr. Zhu with the descendants of Mr. Zhu to worship and sweep, and his acting career has indescribable feelings for Mr. Zhu.
But to be honest, in the past ten years, the image of Zhu De created by Wang Wufu has gradually flattened, and the image presented on the screen is more like a loyal elder and a kind big brother.
However, the founder of the Chinese People's Liberation Army is not only this image, Zhu De is a loving father, a filial son, but also a soldier, a poet, a fierce general with a horizontal sword and eight mighty winds, and a founding father who strategizes to win a decisive victory for thousands of miles.
Therefore, in recent years, Wang Wufu has shaped Zhu De and kind, lack of domineering, and many characteristics have not been shown.
Moreover, Zhu De, played by actor Wang Wufu in the film and television drama, seems to have made little contribution to the revolution, but is only a small role actively cooperating with Chairman Mao's side, and his right to speak is getting lighter and lighter.
For example, in the currently popular TV series "Crossing the Yalu River", Mr. Zhu, played by Wang Wufu, is still an "insignificant" role type, especially when discussing whether to send troops to North Korea, the camera sweeps away Mr. Zhu, played by Wang Wufu, and the lines are almost nothing, which has become the "decoration" in this play.
There have been very few scenes since then...
Of course, while evaluating the performances of actors, we must also explore the role of screenwriters and directors in film and television dramas.
Tang Guoqiang's "Decisive Moment"
In recent years, not only Zhu De's screen image, but even Zhou Enlai's screen presence is not high, and screenwriters and directors are more inclined to portray the role of Chairman Mao. In fact, such a trend is not conducive to the improvement of the quality of film and television works, and the first generation of leaders of New China have a legendary life, which is worthy of a big book.
Previously, among the special actors with the same name as Wang Wufu, Liu Huaizheng belonged to one of the best.

Liu Huaizheng, who served as the director of the Chengdu Drama Theatre in Sichuan Province, played Zhu De in "Dadu River" produced by Changying at the age of 59, thus shaping the image of the first "Zhu Boss" on the Chinese screen, and later starring in historical blockbusters such as "Armageddon". However, under the circumstance that the supervision of the "special actor going to the cave" at that time was not effective, Liu Huai was suddenly in a car accident during his "visit" to the United States and was unfortunately killed.
Actor Wang Weizhi
Actor Wang Weizhi and Wang Wufu have cooperated in the TV series "Founding Father Zhu De", who is good at playing zhu De, who is young and middle-aged, and the future can be expected.
Tao Xianfeng
Tao Xianfeng is also an outstanding Zhu Dete actor who has emerged in recent years, he is a special actor of the Rocket Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, a director of the Actors Working Committee of the China Filmmakers Association, and the honorary president of the China Star Calligraphy and Painting Academy. He has played Commander-in-Chief Zhu De in more than ten film and television dramas and dramas such as "The Destiny of the Nation", "The General Division", "The Red Star Shines on China", and "The Long March Road".
I hope that wang Wufu and Liu Huaizheng will have more excellent special actors after him, and I also hope that domestic drama screenwriters can pay attention to the portrayal of Zhu De's image, improve the screen image of this founding father, and let more audiences understand him and remember him.
