When CCTV decided to start the grand plan of shooting the four famous works, it once attracted unanimous support and warm welcome from all over the country, inside and out! At that time, Chinese TV dramas were in the early embryonic stage, and no matter what the theme of the TV series, it would make people feel refreshing and fresh! With the implementation of the plan, the four masterpieces began to appear in different time periods. The first thing at the beginning of filming was the high-profile national audition of actors, and the director of "Dream of the Red Chamber" was Wang Fulin, a well-known director at that time. Because the book "Dream of the Red Chamber" tells the love story of a large group of young boys and girls, director Wang Fulin decided to boldly use little girls and boys without any acting experience to perform in order to fit the real age of the characters in the book! This was a big risk in the TV environment at the time! The slightest carelessness can mess everything up. For the sake of prudence, Wang Fulin decided to entrust this important task to his subordinates to find suitable candidates all over the country! Among them, Xia Minghui, who later played "Lady Xing" in the play, Li Zhixin, who played "Jia Zhen", and Wang Gui'e, who played "You's", the three of them started a non-stop audition task for a group! In this mission, they stumbled upon a very ideal candidate in Shanghai, she was Xia Jing, who later starred in the movie version of "Dream of the Red Chamber" Jia Baoyu!
Xia Jing is a native of Shanghai, she was admitted to the Shanghai Hongkou Yue Opera Troupe when she was 12 years old, and starred in her first film "Chunhui" at the age of 14, and later she has starred in several film works, so she has a certain acting experience! And this is exactly what Xia Minghui and others hope for! At first, the meeting between the two sides was not very smooth, because when they went to the troupe to find her, she happened to be absent, and they refused to let anyone go when they listened to the tone of the troupe leader! Later, when everyone was disappointed and ready to leave, Xia Jing just came to the front! It turned out that Xia Jing had already known in advance that they had come to select actors, and at the same time, she was afraid that the leader of the group would come forward to stop them, so she waited at the door for a group of people to come out! It was also this meeting that the two sides made an appointment for the time and place of the first video recording!
The video recording process went very smoothly! Xia Jing's appearance and acting skills are also impeccable! The three teachers in the audition group did not have any opinions on each other. But the final decision on the selection of the candidate still depends on the director Wang Fulin himself, and the actor must be personally reviewed by himself before deciding whether to decide whether or not! Therefore, the three of them hurried back to Beijing with the audition tape, and when everyone was watching the audition tape together, Wang Fulin inadvertently found that Xia Jing's side face shot was somewhat imperfect, and for him who wanted to shoot "Dream of the Red Chamber" and pursue perfection, a little flaw would affect the visual effect of the whole play! The next result can be imagined - Xia Jing lost! Not only was she very disappointed, but the three teachers who were selected were also very sorry! Especially Xia Minghui, she has always felt that Xia Jing is a good seedling, and if she cultivates it with her heart, she will definitely get ahead!
Conclusion: Although Xia Jing regrettably lost the opportunity to shoot the TV series Dream of the Red Chamber, Heaven closed one window for her and opened another window for her at the same time. Later, she was selected by director Xie Tieli and entered the crew of the film version of Dream of the Red Chamber, and the female dressed as a man and starred in the male protagonist Jia Baoyu, although the later fame was not as strong as Ouyang Fen, but she had a happy and complete family in life, and the husband Tong Ruixin, who was also an actor, cared for her very much, and a pair of children were lively and cute under the knees. The happiness that a woman pursues is all she has, and her life is perfect at this point!
