Li Moran has performed more than 60 dramas such as "The First Blow", "Wise Tiger Mountain", "Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee", "Primrose", and has starred in 6 movies such as "Jia Wu Fengyun", and the most successful role is the role of the patriotic general "Deng Shichang".
In 1960, Li Moran made a movie for the first time, and it was this "A Noon Storm" that made Li Moran a hit. In the film, Li Moran vividly presents the wind and bones of the national hero Deng Shichang on the screen, and his most famous line in "Jia Wu Fengyun" is "Crashing into Yoshino", and Deng Shichang's image has also become a unique specimen of "tough guys" on the Chinese screen.
Li Moran recalled that this classic character had sighed more than once: "Deng Shichang was picked up by me. "When he first entered the crew of "A Noon Storm", Li Moran completely obeyed the organizational arrangement, and he did not even know what role he played before getting on the train.
When he arrived at Changying, Li Moran saw two people, one was Director Lin of "Jia Wu Fengyun", and the other was the famous photographer Wang Qimin. As soon as Wang Qimin saw Li Moran, he shouted to Director Lin: "What else are you looking for Deng Shichang, isn't this it?" ”
At first, the director deliberately let Li Moran play Li Hongzhang, and finally changed it to Deng Shichang. This made Li Moran feel a little strange: "How can a person with a pimple face play a national hero?" Li Moran asked the director, and the director replied very classicly: "Talents who do not have knots on their faces are not heroes." ”
The success of "A Noon Storm" brought Li Moran a snowflake of letters, and also brought him the Hundred Flowers Award for the film that year. Although "Deng Shichang" won the recognition of the audience, Li Moran modestly said that this is not because his performance has any unique skills, "the important point is that because the national integrity has a concentrated expression in Deng Shichang, which coincides with the spirit of the Chinese nation that is not afraid of violence, which has touched the audience."
