"Black hair, dark eyes, yellow skin... Proud to face the waves, the blood is like the red sun! A stage performance of "If There Is Tomorrow" integrated into Chinese rap and the song "Boys Should Be Self-Reliant" "Exploded". On the stage of the fifth performance of the variety show "Brother With Thorns and Thorns" broadcast last week, the song performed by Huang Guanzhong, Zhao Wenzhuo, Zhang Qi, Ouyang Jing and Li Balan stirred up thousands of netizens with a strong sense of national pride. There are gang and soft, Zhang Zhilin, Zhang Jin, Yin Zheng brought a "love letter to the filmmaker" sincerely touching, the "sister-in-law" watching the battle on the side of the stage have shed tears, but also let the thousands of netizens in front of the screen emotionally "break the defense".
The "Qilin Camp" performance of "If There Is Tomorrow" opened with Zhao Wenzhuo's extraordinary guqin performance, followed by Huang Guanzhong and Li Bahuan singing successively. "The spirit of the dragon's descendant dragon travels around the world..." As Ouyang Jing's Chinese rap sounded, the song entered the most burning X part, and the brothers sang with all their strength "Be a good man, brighter than the sun." The shocking interpretation made the audience's blood boil, and the brothers sitting in the backstage also stood up to sing with it, and the netizens in front of the screen were also deeply infected by the chinese boy's hot blood and pride.
"How many people love the style of your legacy screen, how many people love your independent posture, your eternal innocence, the expectation of a child, and the helplessness of self-appreciation." Unlike the exciting style of "If There Is Tomorrow", a "Love Letter to a Filmmaker" opens with the piano melody of the song "Star", which instantly brings people into a quiet atmosphere. The three actors on the stage performed three kinds of lives in the "movie theater" - Zhang Jin, who once ran a dragon suit, Zhang Zhilin, who had a white beard, and Yin Zheng, who showed the actor's sense of pulling. On the big screen behind the stage, the fragments of the masterpieces they starred in flashed one after another - "Rushing into the Clouds", "A Generation of Grandmasters", "Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red"... "The human world is only the place where you stay, and the milky way is the wandering place of your soul." The original song of "Love Letter to Filmmakers" was produced by Li Zongsheng and sung by Cai Qin, reflecting the filmmaker's bittersweet and life accumulation word by word. When the brothers who have achieved fame stand in front of the images projecting the past works and sing this song, their songs carry infinite nostalgia for life and youth, hitting the heartstrings of the listeners.
Zhang Jin played a martial arts actor, breaking through the glass and rolling to the ground. When it was all over, he struggled to get up and staggered to his seat, bandaged his bleeding hands. Cai Shaofen, his wife in the audience, was already in tears. All this is designed and performed for this stage, and it is also Zhang Jin's personal experience of the past. Sitting in front of the mirror, Yin Zheng, the person in the mirror and the true self are difficult to distinguish between true and false; Zhang Zhilin, who has a white beard crawling all over his chin, looks at himself on the screen, and his eyes are full of emotion. At the end of the song, Zhang Zhilin walked to the highest row of the screening hall alone, looking back and smiling at the same time. Opening the door, he stepped into the beam of light, as if saying goodbye to the past. "You are painstakingly pursuing eternity, but life is bumpy and impermanent; you foolishly pursue perfection, but you have been giving misunderstandings, hurting, giving up, and blaming..." Ten years of work on stage and offstage, behind those bright images known to the world, how many days and nights of struggle and pain are hidden?
As netizens said, "This stage, as soon as it opens, has already won." In the song, Zhang Jin recreates the scene of himself rolling in the glass ballast again and again when he was filming martial arts scenes in the past. Before, many netizens said that they felt "Cai Shaofen's happiness", but as the "Love Letter to the Filmmaker" sang, "Who understands the sadness you carefully hide, who understands the remembrance on your faded face?" The husband is "seamlessly dashing" on the stage, and the "fear in the heart" under the stage, no one can understand it better than his wife, who is also a film and television practitioner. As the lover who accompanied Zhang Jin through his long years on the road to fame, Cai Shaofen posted a love letter to her husband on social media, "Heartache and heartbeat, I believe that the filmmaker Zhang Jin will definitely shine with his acting skills", and the love letter is written as "Forever Fan Cai Shaofen". Wordless love but full of love, the couple's love envy others.
Zhang Zhilin debuted through singing competitions in 1991, and this year is his 30th year in the show business circle. After the performance, Zhang Zhilin choked up several times, "Movies are like life, and my own life has been invested in the acting career, and my youth is all for you (the audience)." Although Yin Zheng is not as rich as the experience of the previous two brothers, "Love Letter to the Filmmaker" is also a true portrayal of himself. With the popularity of "Charlotte Troubles" and "Sideburns Are Not Begonia Red", he has a super "empathy ability", allowing the audience to see the abundant potential of an excellent actor.
The whole program of "Love Letter to filmmakers" is complete and vivid, from Zhang Jin hitting the glass to Zhang Zhilin opening the curtain and turning around to light, the color, content, performance, and singing are extremely textured. "Dreaming of silver with the outside of the body, dreaming in the dream of the outside of the body", in fact, not only the actor industry, all those who insist on their dreams deserve to be respected. Although filmmakers may be far away from many audiences, every mortal will experience the same life as them, the passage of time, so this stage show has won the resonance of thousands of audiences.
