This year, the "Mist Theater" was once again low-key online, and the opening new drama "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" with those meticulous details and ups and downs of the story line, let people "get cold behind their backs after watching it", addicted to chasing drama can not extricate themselves.
Nowadays, with the advancement of the plot, the audience has also entered the guessing game of "who is the murderer", among which "Ding Julie", played by the famous actor Xing Minshan, has become the focus of netizens' "sniping" because of the character's setting and excellent acting strength. On October 20, Xing Minshan was interviewed exclusively by the cover reporter to share his interpretation and creation of the role.
Kunqu opera is eye-catching
Cross-industry male dan promote traditional opera
"Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" is a family suspense web drama directed by Wang Xiaoshuai and Hua Zhen, written by Yang Yishu and Wang Xiaoshuai, and starring Duan Yihong, Hao Lei, Zu Feng, Wu Yue, Xing Minshan, Bai Yufan, and Mira. The drama tells the story of a suspenseful case that takes place in the water town of Jiangnan and involves complex emotional stories about the family.
In the play, Xing Minshan plays "Ding Julie", who is the leader of the local Kun opera troupe. "I entered the Zhejiang Kunqu Opera Troupe in 1978 to study Kunqu opera, and in 1987 I went to the Beijing Film Academy acting department, and I have nearly 10 years of Kunqu performance experience. This time, this play happens to have a performance paragraph of Kunqu opera, and I can also show the performance expertise of Kunqu opera through this play. ”
Past performance experience has also given Xing Minshan a lot of "convenience", "I am very familiar with the troupe and opera, and I am definitely sure of playing opera characters." And I am also the opera consultant of this play, so in addition to the performance, I will pay attention to the details of the script, costumes, makeup, props and other aspects, and try to make it as accurate as possible. However, unlike the wenwu old life line of his main worker, "Ding Julie" is a male Dan, and it is the most important boudoir Dan in the Kunqu opera industry. "Our opera always says 'interlaced like a mountain', and after crossing the line, it is really difficult to perform, and it is not a small challenge for me."
Xing Minshan introduced, "There are many pages in the play to support the plot of the Kunqu opera "Peony Pavilion", many of the folding plays in it are very hardworking, the singing voice and body are very difficult, it is more difficult for me as a singing student, and I have done a lot of homework before, including asking my mother-in-law Shen Shihua (a famous corner of Kunqu opera and the representative inheritor of the kunqu project of the national intangible cultural heritage) to try to do the best. ”
Xing Minshan still maintains the Kunqu opera performance once or twice a year, and he also hopes that through this play, more young audiences can understand the traditional national art. "The Mist Theater is very popular with young people now, after the first 6 episodes of "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" were broadcast, many netizens have reported that Kunqu opera is beautiful, Kunqu opera is good, and the body and singing voice are so beautiful. I hope that after the 12 episodes are broadcast, more audiences will like our traditional art and like Kunqu opera, which is also one of my original intentions to promote Kunqu opera. ”
The story burns the brain
Character questioning or killer behind the scenes?
With the advancement of the plot, "Octagonal Pavilion Mystery Fog" has aroused heated discussion among netizens, "The octagonal pavilion really has a lot of fog", "What are the details of the octagonal pavilion mystery fog", "the octagonal pavilion mystery fog who is the murderer", "the octagonal pavilion mystery fog is too high" and other topics continue, netizens have commented: "The details poke the heart!" The plot is getting more and more brain-burning, each character seems to have a connection between them, all kinds of fog intertwined, who can crack it? "This drama is really brain-burning, and I can't guess the direction of the plot behind it."
There are also many bloggers who have written long articles analyzing the "murderers" in their eyes. These speculations have also made "Ding Julie", played by Xing Minshan, the target of everyone. Some netizens swore an oath: "The murderer of Zhu Shenghui is not Xuan Liang, but Ding Huanlie. He is also the person who killed Xuanzhen 19 years ago, and the eight details in the play have long been hinted at. ”
In this regard, Xing Minshan explained: "After watching the previous plot, the audience will definitely have their own speculations, have their own cognition and judgment of the character, and they will label the character according to their imagination and wishes, such as some netizens saying that Ding Julie is a murderer, a hypocrite, and even a scumbag. But I think that human nature is complex, and he is not something we can say clearly in a sentence or two. Judging from the previous plot, all the characters in this play are suspected, and everyone is suspected of being a murderer. How it turned out, let's look down. ”
This also shows that Xing Minshan's acting skills are superb, a look, an action, can make the audience associate a lot. "If you want to interpret your role well and become a qualified actor, you need lifelong learning, lifelong accumulation, lifelong exploration, constant adjustment of yourself, and constant exploration." In Xing Minshan's view, a good actor must not only have acting skills, but also have a "heart". "Actors should pay attention to society and human nature, so that the characters you create will be vivid."
Xing Minshan also started from his own experience, emphasizing that actors should "not be pressurized by more arts", "I think actors should be a 'miscellaneous family', to accept a variety of things, to understand, to see, at the same time to have more contact with society, contact with life, so that when you act, you can still help." Don't pay attention to whether you are handsome or not, beautiful or not, these are superficial things, you have to pay attention to this play from the heart, put your heart on the role, this is what an actor should do. ”
