Wu Yifan will be completely cool, and this old drama bone should be the real top stream.

In the past few days, Wu Yifan's "collapsed house" incident has aroused the attention of the whole people.

This time, the top stream, which has always been popular in the capital market, has not only lost many commercial endorsements, but more importantly, because of challenging social order and good customs, and even violating the law, it may face prison disasters.

On the evening of July 19, the official microblog of the China Performance Industry Association spoke out:

"Entertainers are an important subject of the dissemination of social and cultural values, and the public has higher requirements for the moral character of star artists. The Ethics And Self-Discipline Committee of the China Performing Arts Industry Association has always paid great attention to the moral character, professional ethics, and relevant public opinion of performing arts practitioners with wide influence. ”

In the acting world, some people "dare to risk the world's great disobedience" and disregard the bottom line of morality and law; some people are strict with themselves, Jiade Yifan, compared with those traffic stars, many old drama bones - such as Chen Daoming, Li Xuejian, Zhang Songwen, Li Baotian, Wang Jinsong, etc., superb acting skills, guarding the land, they are the actors really needed in this era.

August 1945, Chongqing.

After the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek had a historic meeting.

The moment the supreme commanders of the two revolutionary camps shook hands, they were forever frozen in precious shots.

After 4 years, "the world was turned upside down"; later, "the right way on earth is vicissitudes".

The mirror image of this scene of the era appeared in the recent hit tribute drama "Armageddon" for the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party.

● Stills from Armageddon

In the play, the peak duel; outside the play, each holds a sad and happy.

Tang Guoqiang, who plays Mao Zedong in the play, is now nearly old, and became famous at the age of 27 for starring in his brother Zhao Yongsheng in the movie "Little Flower", and then his artistic path was frank and he climbed the ladder; Wang Jinsong, who played Chiang Kai-shek, is 54 years old this year.

Until 2005, he was about to run four, and he was still in a state of "no one to check" in the acting industry. 16 years later, he once again amazed the audience with his "pixel-level reproduction" style and amazing acting skills.

Life is a long rally, some people fight physical strength and intelligence; some people fight for endurance and concentration; some people rely on the blessing of talent and luck; some people rely on nothing, only a lonely battle with a horse.

For Wang Jinsong, he clearly belongs to the latter.

● Wang Jinsong

Time back two years.

On the afternoon of June 13, 2019, at the 25th Shanghai TV Festival "Magnolia TV Series Master Class" forum, when he heard that a traffic star actually held the matter of memorizing lines to show off people, Wang Jinsong, who has always been humble, took the lead in attacking:

"I really regret when our profession became a profession that had to be praised for memorizing lines. The back line is the gun you went to the battlefield, can you tell me that you didn't have a gun in the trenches? How much do you not want to face? ”

● At the "Magnolia TV Series Master Class" forum, Wang Jinsong spoke

As an old drama bone with deep skills and first-class lines, Wang Jinsong is not a big talker, he is qualified to be angry and shoot the case.

Common sense is common sense, it should not become the capital of arrogance in the world, basic professionalism and code of conduct is the industry ethics, not a reason to be praised.

When filming "The League of Military Divisions", the producer once said, "The plays we watched for all the actors when they entered the group were All Jinsong's plays, and told them that if you can't find the feeling, go and see Jinsong's performance." ”

His role rarely features a mountain roaring tsunami, a hill-like collapse- and seemingly unfazed appearance, but quietly coordinating Zhang's relaxed micro-expressions.

He said: "It's easy to release, you can cry and cry, but it's not worth it." ”

When it is time to restrain, there is the implication of the deep flow of still water; when it is surging, there is also a weight-lifting grip. Under the lens, he shows a tense control in the transition of progress and retreat.

It is also like his mastery of life.

In 1986, 19-year-old Wang Jinsong had just graduated, and he took the 50 yuan given by his father and could not wait to step on the train from Wuxi to Nanjing.

A few hours of driving, not far, but he felt the anxiety and excitement of rushing to the great future on the speeding train.

Before leaving, his father was still painstakingly advising him to repeat his studies for a year, study science and engineering, even if he was admitted to a junior college and an electric university, he was better than being an actor.

Although he was born in an ordinary family, he has loved singing since he was a child, because of his good voice conditions and his love of art, which made him give up the traditional road of following the rules.

And choosing the unusual paths of the world is all at the cost of loneliness and hardship.

That day, when he got off the train station in Nanjing, it was already one o'clock in the morning, and the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties was dimly lit, and with its dripping gold powder and bustling atmosphere, he had a sense of trance.

In order to save money, he walked from Nanjing West Railway Station across the city to Baixia Road, walking for five hours, until it was already dark, and then he walked to the hotel near the school.

Wang Jinsong, who studied acting in drama school for several years, was assigned to the Nanjing Repertory Theatre after graduation, and originally wanted to show his skills, but the task he was assigned was to load the stage and unload the manual work.

In the long tunnel of life, he rushed all the way, but when he reached the exit of fate, he found that the lights were silent.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="653">2</h1>

At that time, he went to the countryside with the troupe to perform, and even if he went to the poor countryside, he still did not get the opportunity to perform. Occasional slackness, will also be deducted 10 yuan of performance fees.

Once, he managed to get a chance to perform, but he played a wall. There is not a single line in the whole process, just a mechanical turning of the body: the good guys come to turn white, and the bad guys come to turn black.

In the troupe, he has been in the position of a marginal person for a long time, and he is also an invisible person who has been ignored, and even under the embarrassment of having no background and no right to speak, he has become the object of natural contempt and contempt.

At that time, his monthly salary was only a few tens of yuan, and he could not make ends meet just over half of each month, and when it was most difficult to sustain, he could not even afford to buy a pack of pickles for a dime, so he had to go to the market to buy cabbage, wash it and soak it in an enamel jar as a meal.

He sometimes remembers his father's strong dissuasion of him, but because of his willful behavior, he has forced himself into a desperate situation.

Later, the head of the unit, Zhao Tuan, took pity on him, made an exception and increased his monthly food allowance of 30 yuan and allowed him to sleep in the data room.

As a result, the information room, which had no water supply and sewing, no bathroom, and only the floor, became the "refuge" for his spirit.

In the most difficult three years of his life, Wang Jinsong nestled in the reference room and read like a hunger, diving and swimming, and the fragrance of books lingered, making him temporarily self-contained, as if he had forgotten all kinds of unbearable life.

He Bing once borrowed a saying from the cross-talk industry to talk about the cultivation of actors' self-advancement: "Acting pays attention to one life, two lucks, three feng shui, four accumulations of yin and five readings." ”

● He Bing

The result of the extensive reading of books not only makes Wang Jinsong's temperament elegant and full of books, but also makes his future grasp of the role always have a deep understanding and a good insight.

But in the adolescence that should shine the most, the sky of his life is always gray, and "the bench sits cold for ten years", which makes him miss the best time to bloom.

There is a saying in the film and television circles that if an actor is not in his early 28s, he will be like this in his life.

Although at that time, he ran some dragon sets, but after the age of standing, he still did not have a representative work, and the middle-aged anxiety that came over his face often made him toss and turn, unable to sleep at night.

At that time, many people made a "conclusive conclusion" about his acting career - there was almost no possibility of getting ahead!

At the age of 30, he starred in his first TV series "New Gone with the Wind", playing an insignificant role.

● In "The New Gone with the Wind", Wang Jinsong plays Mao Zhiliang

After 5 years, when he was 35 years old, he received another play - "Big Brother".

For Wang Jinsong, he can have later achievements, but also because he has a good big brother.

In 2001, Fu Biao starred in the TV series "Waiting for You to Return" in Nanjing, and Wang Jinsong happened to participate in a supporting role in the drama, and the two became familiar because they were filming together.

Previously, Fu Biao had already become famous for starring in several of Feng Xiaogang's film works. Fu Biao admired this down-to-earth little brother.

● Fu Biao

At that time, he was still a lonely and nameless little actor, and the hotel where he was filmed did not allow him to eat inside, afraid that the food would fall to the ground, he ran to the side of the road outside to eat a box lunch. Fu Biao also came over and stood silently beside him and ate with him.

Looking sad to see him, Fu Biao mentioned to him that he had also encountered unfairness in the crew, and said to him: "Jinsong, if we become famous in the future, we will never bully others, nor let others bully us." ”

Since then, he has never forgotten the box lunch they ate together against the north wind that year.

One day, Fu Biao suggested that he could go to Beijing with better film and television resources:

"Jinsong, you are a good person and a good actor, but if you stay in this place (Nanjing), you may not be buried."

Wang Jinsong, who has a strong sense of self-esteem, refused: "I don't want to go, I don't know anyone in Beijing, and I have to ask for people everywhere, it's too faceless." ”

Fu Biao asked rhetorically, "Do you have a lot of face now?" ”

This sentence undoubtedly poked at Wang Jinsong's sore spot, and at the same time tore off his veil of self-deception and vanity.

A year later, Fu Biao took Wang Jinsong to see the director everywhere in Beijing, and everyone praised: "This is my good friend, a good actor, his price is not high, you just need to use him, I will give you a bunch of plays for free, I don't want a penny." ”

Soon, Fu Biao fell ill with cancer.

In 2005, Wang Jinsong was filming the TV series "Qia Classmate Teenager", and heard that Fu Biao was seriously ill, so he gave up all his work and ran to Beijing to visit Fu Biao.

Before Fu Biao died, he repeatedly told Wang Jinsong: "You play the old student well, and you have food to eat when you play the old student well." ”

Later, he really had food to eat, but the brother who pulled himself away at the most difficult time was gone.

Once on the show, talking about this matter, he burst into tears.

Since then, becoming a good person like Fu Biao seems to have become his best remembrance of him.

This "good" has two key measures: good people. Good play.

In 2006, Wang Jinsong ushered in the highlight moment of his life. The famous director Zhang Li found Wang Jinsong when directing "Daming Dynasty 1566" and invited him to play the eunuch Yang Jinshui.

● In "Daming Dynasty 1566", Wang Jinsong played the eunuch Yang Jinshui stills

In the play, Yang Jinshui is a ruthless and quite chief eunuch of the city government, who was later escorted to Beijing because of a major corruption case: "In the play, I play Yang Jinshui when he is proud of the spring wind, and there are also places where he is falling into the well. Tortured by a group of eunuchs of all sizes, cold water was poured, needles, fires, and all kinds of insults were inflicted. ”

It is also in order to perform this tortured state, Wang Jinsong was first poured with 10 barrels of cold water from the deep well, and then, due to the needs of the plot, in order to investigate whether Yang Jinshui was pretending to be crazy and stupid, he wanted to use silver needles to pierce his skin and flesh.

Therefore, in the cold spring, Wang Jinsong, who had just been poured with cold water, exposed his upper body, and once again encountered the punishment of needle prick... In order to achieve excellent shooting results, he was stabbed more than 40 times.

There is no borrowing, no substitute, it is a real feeling of the pain of acupuncture.

Coupled with being besieged, punched and kicked, when he returned to his residence, there were many bruises on his body.

This drama that made Wang Jinsong undergo a severe test physically and mentally eventually caused him to sweat in the middle of the night and start a high fever.

In order not to alarm others, he chose to drive alone to the hospital.

Whenever someone praises the sacrifices he makes for the role, he thinks it's the actor's thing to do. Acting with his life has also become the core principle of his professional discipline.

Because of playing Yang Jinshui, the 39-year-old Wang Jinsong finally ushered in the first role out of the circle, and the Yang Jinshui he played was evaluated by Li Zhun, vice chairman of the China Federation of Literary and Art Circles, as "the first eunuch in the past 30 years of TV dramas." ”

"Daming Dynasty 1566" scored 9.7 points on Douban, and together with another masterpiece of director Zhang Li, tied for the first place in the rating of national dramas, in zhang Li's own words: "After "Daming Dynasty 1566" let anyone in the literary and artistic disciplines watch it, they no longer dare to underestimate the TV series. ”

In the following 10 years, Wang Jinsong's drama road has become wider and wider, and in popular dramas such as "No War in Peking", "Langya List", "Army Division Alliance", "Glory of Datang", "Icebreaking Action" and so on, he has successively played various roles, although most of the supporting roles, but more and more audiences are impressed by his acting skills.

In "Langya List", he played the uncle Yan Que "holding a chestnut knot, retinue a hundred, silk crown, wearing a camp, sword and axe to the body without changing its color." "It is an outstanding envoy who can suppress the courtiers with eloquence and the courage to suppress the tyrants."

● In "Langya List", Wang Jinsong played the role of Uncle Yan Que still

When he appeared, he only used a back to make people feel the aura of not being angry and arrogant. When a loved one commits suicide and his best friend dies unjustly, his endless pathos are presented in his distant red dust...

When filming "No War in Peking", someone commented on him: "With a sick and weak face and shrewd ability to switch freely, who else can play Wang Puchen?" ”

Human conflict, like dramatic conflict, is the wonderful charm that makes the characters and stories more layered, tearing, and forming a contradictory unity. This is obviously a great challenge for the actors.

In "Icebreaker Action", there is a highlight of Lin Yaodong to send his son out to shelter from the wind, and when he left, on the roof, he buttoned his son's open long-sleeved shirt one by one and watched him leave.

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

● In "Icebreaker Action", Wang Jinsong played Lin Yaodong and his son Lin Can

From a poor teenager to becoming a big drug lord who influenced the whole village, the core element that Lin Yaodong used to build a business empire was nothing more than profit. What Wang Jinsong wants to show is not only Lin Yaodong's cunning and fierce and reckless crime, but also the flash of family affection that remains in his human nature.

It is not too difficult to create a "devil" and shape an "angel", but the difficulty is that the two are jagged in the cracks of human nature and are richly layered and delicately interpreted.

Wang Jinsong undoubtedly did it!

In fact, this detail of the button is from Wang Jinsong's childhood.

Wang Jinsong's body was weak when he was young, and the nursery he went to had few aunts and more children. The attentive father came to the nursery several times a day: it was hot at noon, and the father went to help him unbutton; when it was getting dark, when it was raining, he would help his son put on thick clothes and button up.

"Father is not good at words, just silently doing it every day. So in that scene where the script did not stipulate the action, I silently helped Lin Jingwen button up. Because of this scene I just want the character to be like a father. ”

Artistic ingenuity comes from the intentions of life. To observe with the eyes, to perceive with kindness, in the most overlooked details, in the trivial ordinariness, the brilliance of human nature will always inadvertently knock on the door of our hearts.

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

Therefore, in the consistent observation, perception and reflection of life, he also constantly achieves breakthroughs in acting.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="656">4</h1>

Wang Jinsong's appearance in "Armageddon" this time is already the second time he has played Chiang Kai-shek after "Glory and Dreams":

"Playing this character, an important figure in recent history, and two in a row, is so sudden that I still feel genuinely afraid."

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

The same character, two dramas, how to interpret the style of avoiding similarities, so that it has its own characteristics, is a question he has repeatedly pondered after taking "Armageddon".

The Great Armageddon means that the Chiang family dynasty is about to fall into the building. Therefore, in the face of the general trend, Chiang Kai-shek's trepidation and weakness, helplessness and loneliness, as well as the resentment and unwillingness of stubborn resistance and dying struggle, constituted the psychological tone of his specific period.

A very interesting scene in the play is that when Chiang Kai-shek parachuted into Yan'an and came to the cave where the CPC Central Committee worked, he did not expect that his old opponent, who was inseparable from him, would actually work and live in such a simple and dilapidated place, and that many strategists and decisions that would influence the direction of the Chinese revolution were planned in such a low cave.

He was not tired of eating, not tired of fine, extravagant, and had well-armed troops, but he was vulnerable and gradually defeated.

The shock in his heart, and the awe in his shock, was natural.

He sat in front of the spinning wheel that Mao Zedong had used, his mixed feelings exposed in the eyes he tried to control but could not hide.

● In "Armageddon", Wang Jinsong played Chiang Kai-shek stills

After a meeting of senior Kuomintang generals he held, he almost fell down when he got up and left his chair, and after standing firmly, he returned to the meeting and said, "I am more than sixty years old, I have lived a nail, and it is nothing to die." But you're still young..."

From invincibility, brutality, to becoming full of decline, it is difficult to hide the sadness, and the complex mental journey of a generation of tyrants to the end of the road has been shown by Wang Jinsong to the best of his ability.

There is no big opening and closing, but it is delicate; there is no thick ink and heavy color, but the aftertaste is long.

Wang Jinsong never hides that most of his roles are supporting roles, but he never perfunctorily blames him.

At an award ceremony, recalling his acting path, Wang Jinsong sighed with emotion:

"It's been 32 years, and almost no one has watched the TV series I played in the last century, but that doesn't mean that time didn't exist! Even a humble being must admit that that person is me, without whom I am today.

So allow me to answer this way: For the role of Lin Yaodong, I have been preparing for 32 years! ”

"Liu Zi Chongxue" said: "The sinker of a well starts from a three-inch obstacle to the depth of ten thousand inches." As a result, he gave a sense of existence to each of his roles.

Although the word "meaning", in today's social context, is mostly covered up, diluted, and alienated, except for those noisy worlds that make it look ridiculous and ridiculous, and few people pay attention to their real existence, in fact, each of its feathers shines with a moving luster, showing those simple and sincere, vast and far-reaching values.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="657">5</h1>

Actors have been doing it for a long time, it is easy to type, trapped in a solidified role, unable to do both good and evil, unable to experience the richness of variability in more identities.

Therefore, some people have played a good person for a lifetime, but they cannot play a villain; some people have played a villain for a lifetime, and they cannot get a share of the world of good people.

In "Special Forces 1", Wang Jinsong plays a brave and resourceful combat commander, and in "Special Forces 2", he becomes a fierce mercenary killer, and the transition between them is very smooth and natural.

In "Sparrow", Li Moqun's scheming and old calculations were interpreted by him without any trace of axe chiseling; in "Blood Xiangxi", he played Mr. Qu, a teaching teacher, under the appearance of Qing, it was a cold and proud bone, making people realize that if the readers had such a wind bone, the Chinese nation would have great hope!

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

● In "Blood Xiangxi", Wang Jinsong played Mr. Qu stills

When many actors' "true colors" are repeatedly recognized, he can be given shape in different roles and perfect the environment.

In 2018, when participating in "Sound Immersion", he restored the tragic scene of Mr. Qu in "Blood Xiangxi" who angrily rebuked the Japanese officer before he was killed: "What is virtue? The word moral. Maybe you will never understand, because you have not yet learned the three points of humanity, but the animal nature of the seven points is already deeply rooted! ”

A literati, in the face of a strong man, angrily rushing to the crown, preferring to die unyieldingly, Wang Jinsong's generous statement made people see the clear evidence that the Chinese nation, which had suffered a lot of trouble, was trampled by iron hooves, and was bombarded by sharp artillery, but never died.

Subsequently, he made a cameo appearance in "Daming Dynasty 1566" huang Zhizhong played by Hai Rui, when he was imprisoned, in the face of Jiajing's interrogation, he was frank and honest:

"I lost my father when I was four years old, and my mother brought me up alone. When he became an official, his mother admonished him, "Although Er has no father, he eats Junlu, and jun is Er's father'...

When did the emperor think that although tens of millions of people have kings but no fathers, although they have officials, they are like thieves? The two capitals and one thirteen provinces are all hungry babies waiting to be killed, and the knives are waiting to be cut. Father, do you know? ”

● Stills from "Daming Dynasty 1566"

Finally, as his eyes were filled with tears and his liver and gallbladder were all cracked, Wang Jinsong also lowered his head heavily.

In a few moments, the audience erupted into thunderous applause.

He once said: "I hope to present the thick characteristics of the times and national memory, not the chaotic and colorful low-grade products; I want to interpret the indescribable soul, not the simple and rough characters that you forget after you see it."

Hopefully these roles will never leave you forgotten, and hopefully I can be proud of my profession because each of my characters is trying to give him the weight of life. ”

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

When the weight of this life is enough to support his spiritual edifice, even in the face of the chaos of the show business industry where traffic is king, capital is dominant, and bad money drives out good money, he always keeps a clear head:

"Don't be fooled by the ratings click-through rate, always look back at your original intentions." You're already confused yourself, who cares about the most basic acting problems? ”

In film and television dramas, he plays what he looks like; in life, his hands and feet exude a calm and calm temperament, which is not only cultivated by years of reading, but also the result of his long-term distance from the world in addition to filming.

They were all eating Wu Yifan's melon, but I was deeply impressed by this old drama bone 12345

The so-called "quiet life is fixed, fixed life is wise, and wisdom is calm." "And those who are chaotic, impetuous, and fanatical, most of them are like flying feathers, and as soon as the wind blows, they float and scatter...

The Buddhas have clouds: "Bodhisattvas fear causes, and sentient beings fear effects." ”

Therefore, no matter what time of day, no matter what industry, opportunistic, self-inflated, self-interested, do not understand the fear, in the end all of them will suffer their own consequences.

As Wang Jinsong said, "Looking back on my own acting career, I am glad that I did not go the wrong way, I did not give up on myself, I went with the flow and did not follow the stream." ”

"Play other people's stories and live your own lives." This is his position on his acting life.

He sometimes recalls the 19-year-old boy who walked with his bags on his back on the night of the moon and the stars in the empty streets of Nanjing.

The road ahead seems to be endless. He didn't know when he would be able to reach his destination, but as he walked, it was light... Text/Wattle Green
