On the eve of the National Day, Zhang Yimou's new work "Shadow" was released, and compared with "The Great Wall", whether it is industry people or ordinary audiences, the reputation of "Shadow" is quite good. In the film, Xi'an actor Feng Bai "specially starred" and took on a heavy role, but he could not show his face. Some people have grievances for Feng Bai, but Feng Bai, who returned to his hometown yesterday to participate in the Fifth Silk Road International Film Festival, said: "Even if you can't show your face, you can cooperate with the top domestic front-line crew, even if you don't show your face, what does it matter?" ”
In fact, he is the real "shadow"
The movie "Shadow" tells a story about a stand-in, in which Deng Chao plays the stand-in for The Governor of Dadu Ziyu and Ziyu - "Shadow" Jingzhou. In fact, Feng Bai is the real "shadow", because the role played by Feng Bai is the role played by Deng Chao, that is, one person plays the two roles of Jingzhou and Ziyu. It's just that he is Deng Chao's stand-in, he wants to accompany Deng Chao to play Ziyu again, but also to accompany Deng Chao to shoot Jingzhou, and then use technology to replace Feng Bai with Deng Chao, resulting in the feeling that two identical people appear in a picture, but Feng Bai can never show his face, and in the cast list at the end of the film, he only played subtitles such as "Special Appearance: Feng Bai", but did not have his role name.
Feng Bai told reporters that he had cooperated with director Zhang Yimou many years ago, playing a small eunuch who flashed by in Director Zhang's "Full of Golden Armor", which was much heavier than the scene: "At that time, the crew was looking for actors across the country and wanted to find an actor who was more similar to Deng Chao. In fact, the competition is still quite fierce, I have interviewed three times, and the last level I chose with two other actors was selected by Director Zhang and Deng Chao. Since he had to act twice, Deng Chao needed to give himself a very strong stimulus to the person who played the opponent, so he was very demanding. "Feng Bai said that Deng Chao is an actor he admires, so even with such a role, when filming the first scene, his heart beats nervously." In fact, the second time is more difficult to act, the first time I play Zi Yu, Deng Chao played Jingzhou; the second time I played Jingzhou, he played Zi Yu, especially I have seen how he plays Jingzhou, it is very difficult to achieve his performance state. It is this rare experience that makes Feng Bai feel that even if he can't show his face, he can participate in such a team, can play such a role, and see that Deng Chao can be more serious, persistent can be more persistent, and he is an unattainable performance experience for himself. In the documentary "Zhang Yimou and His "Shadow"", Zhang Dao also praised Feng Bai: "Feng Bai's play is very good! ”
Although he cannot show his face in "Shadow", Feng Bai has played an important role in many film and television dramas, such as "Cliff", "One Servant and Two Lords", "Red Flag Rolling West Wind", etc. Not long ago, he starred in the large-scale rural epic TV series "Document No. 1", which was a gift for forty years of reform and opening up. Feng Bai played a "returnee" farmer in the play, returning from overseas studies to return to his hometown to build, Feng Bai said that this role touched him a lot: "I am a city baby, grew up in Xi'an, but also because of filming this play, I have a lot of understanding of rural life, and I have also learned a lot of agricultural knowledge. Now the new countryside has changed a lot, the gap between urban and rural areas is getting smaller and smaller, including the way of thinking, and when we go to collect wind in the early stage of filming, there are really students who have returned from overseas to return to their hometowns to build, and I believe that the new countryside will get better and better. ”
Feng Bai is handsome in appearance, and he admits that he is already the father of a three-year-old child: "After becoming a father, the role I want to play most is the father, but the scenes that come to me are mostly to let me play my son." I used to want to play the role as myself, but now I prefer to be stripped out of the role. This time with Deng Chao, Chao Ge said that the actor must think clearly and identify what kind of scene he wants to shoot? Do you really just want to make a living, or do you want to break through? Or find yourself in the role. It is precisely because of the cooperation with Deng Chao in "Shadow", Deng Chao also recognized this Xi'an boy, and now Feng Bai is filming Director Deng Chao's new work "Galaxy Tuition Class", he said that he will continue to learn and improve himself.
