Before the 87th edition of "Dream of the Red Chamber" began filming, the most beautiful boys and girls in the country gathered in the "Dream of the Red Chamber" crew, considering that the actors may breed new love in the process of contact, Wang Fulin, who had been prepared for it, made rules for all the actors.
"I said you are not allowed to fall in love, you are not allowed to get married, this scene is not finished, your child is out, what should I do?"
Because of this rule, many actors who are related to "Dream of the Red Chamber" have to secretly fall in love. It is precisely because of this rule that Chen Honghai, who plays Xue Pan, also has a dramatic scene that is reverie when performing.
Chen Honghai hit Chen Jianyue, who played Xiangling, hard, and later he was severely beaten by Chen Jianyue's object.
"I don't know that the actor who played Liu Xianglian (Hou Changrong) was playing with her at that time, I first beat his wife, and then he beat me in the play."
What's going on here?
In 1983, "Dream of the Red Chamber" was selected as an actor in the national audition, and under the recommendation of screenwriter Zhou Ling, Chen Honghai, who had many years of experience in drama performance, rushed from Hefei to Beijing to audition for Xue Pan.
And when he came to the "Dream of the Red Chamber" training class with great interest, he knew that he was only one of Xue Pan's many candidates.
"In fact, there were already ten 'Xue Pan' before I came, and the most likely person to play Xue Pan was Liu Jinshan."
Although there was little hope, Chen Honghai did not give up fighting, because he was very naughty at a young age, he always felt that he was somewhat similar to Xue Pan.
In order to win this role, Chen Honghai wrote a lot about Xue Pan's understanding, and did his homework inside and out.
When it came time to set the angle, he turned the once impossible into a possibility.
"After the first ten Xue Pan finished acting, as soon as I got on the stage until the director shouted to stop, I was still in the play at this time someone nodded. The first person to nod was Teacher Zhou Lei, he said a word, he said that Baochao is so beautiful, her brother can't be ugly no matter how ugly, right? ”
"I was recommended by Teacher Zhou Ling again, Wang Dao approved, and the camera Li Yaozong also approved, so I played Xue Pan."
Although it was finally unanimously approved by the directors, when filming the scene of "Xiangling Being Beaten", Chen Honghai's performance made director Wang Fulin very annoyed.
According to Chen Honghai's recollection, the director lost his temper with him at that time: "Xue Pan, what's wrong with you? In the end, did you shoot it? It's that you have a shot that makes us unable to finish the work, two o'clock, you have to really fight, you can't die if you don't hit Xiangling. ”
There was no way, Chen Honghai had to slap down hard.
Chen Honghai recalled: "At that time, after the fight, she threw herself into the arms of Teacher Sun Guizhen (executive director) and cried, crying very sadly. ”
Unexpectedly, it was because of this slap that not only made Chen Jianyue's tinnitus ring for more than 20 days, but also caused him to be severely beaten by Chen Jianyue's object Hou Changrong.
Although it is out of the need for artistic creation, watching his girlfriend in love being beaten, Hou Changrong's heart is inevitably full of mixed feelings.
"Well, you boy, if you dare to beat my daughter-in-law, I will beat you in the next scene."
At this time, Chen Honghai had no idea that Hou Changrong and Chen Jianyue were in love.
Chen Jianyue recalled her first meeting with Hou Changrong, still full of happiness.
"We were drinking porridge and he came in with a bag. I saw that this boy was very beautiful, really very beautiful. Then he sat down next to me, and when I still wanted to eat, he gave me a bowl of porridge. ”
It was this bowl of porridge that made Chen Jianyue have a heartfelt feeling for the beautiful man in front of him.
And a meeting also made Hou Changrong feel inexplicably kind to this girl from Xi'an Film Studio. Why do you feel this way?
"We made a movie called "Life", and Hou Changrong especially liked a song in it, which is a minor key in northern Shaanxi. He kept making me sing, over and over again. ”
It was this northern Shaanxi minor that sang Chen Jianyue into Hou Changrong's heart.
After that, Hou Changrong, the "fixed angle" Liu Xianglian, often invited Chen Jianyue to help him play You Sanjie, and the hazy love between the two was finally sublimated in the "you nong and me nong" in the sketch training.
Although Lang has feelings and concubines, Wang Dao has made rules, so the two can only secretly fall in love.
It is worth mentioning that Hou Changrong is the only actor in "Dream of the Red Chamber" who plays two roles.
The "King of the North" he played was graceful and luxurious, and his every move was very rhythmic and rhythmic of the princely general. When it comes to the "Ranger" Liu Xianglian, his "cold face Erlang" image is simply the ceiling of the ancient costume, which makes people look at ten thousand years.
Perhaps, only such a beautiful face will make the "Dumb Overlord Xue Pan" covet, so as to convince the audience!
However, you may not know that for the actor candidates for the role of Liu Xianglian, casting director Pan Xinxin was initially optimistic not about Hou Changrong, but on the facial features, good physique, and Gao Hongliang with solid dance skills.
The reason why Gao Hongliang entered the crew of "Dream of the Red Chamber" was to go to Liu Xianglian, and the righteousness he exuded was also highly compatible with Liu Xianglian.
However, after he tried Liu Xianglian three times, director Wang Fulin thought that he had the temperament of a prodigal prince. Therefore, Wang Dao said to him, "You try Jia Lian!" ”
Gao Hongliang did not understand why the director arranged it this way: "I was confused at the time, I said Director Wang, if you feel that there is no suitable role here, you tell me that I can bear it." ”
Wang Dao said: "Don't think so much, I let you try you, a person's potential is invisible." ”
Although he wanted to play Liu Xianglian, Gao Hongliang still went to prepare Jia Lian's sketch. After this scene, this first prodigal prince of Jia Fu fell on his head.
Gao Hongliang, who was completely dumbfounded, couldn't figure out how he could get involved with the debauched Jia Lian when he was full of righteousness?
Wang Fulin told him that Jia Lian was the first noble prince of Jia Province, not anyone who wanted to act could act, I believe you will be able to act well.
Under the director's point, Gao Hongliang, who knew that he had no connection with Liu Xianglian, wholeheartedly studied Jia Lian's role.
His first scene encountered the difficult "hair snatching".
Due to the late entry into the group, the preparation time is not very sufficient, so that Gao Hongliang always feels that he can't let go of his hands and feet when playing with Deng Jie, and this just happens to be in line with the setting of Jia Lian's "inner fear" Wang Xifeng in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
But even so, the other male actors in the crew still believe that Gao Hongliang, who has no acting experience, cannot support the male number two in "Dream of the Red Chamber".
"Jia Rong, Jia Qiang, and Jia Yun all want to play Jia Lian, and they are not convinced, because they are professional and experienced."
With no acting experience, but got the envy of everyone Jia Lian, Gao Hongliang, who felt pressure, could only prove himself with extraordinary efforts.
When it came to filming the scene of "Prodigal Son's Love Relic kowloon match", Gao Hongliang's portrayal of Jia Lian was so subtle that everyone thought that Gao Hongliang himself was a prodigal boy full of peach blossoms.
Because of this, when his relationship with the makeup artist Hu Yan of the crew was exposed, he was once strongly opposed by the woman's parents and their relatives and friends, and even when the TV station leaders came to the crew to inspect the work, they could not help but pat him on the shoulder to suggest that he did not want this in his life.
Gao Hongliang went to play Jia Lian, and the role of Liu Xianglian fell to Hou Changrong, which led to the scene of "Dumb Bully Flirting and Being Beaten".
Chen Honghai recalled: I didn't expect Xue Pan to be beaten in the back, and I instinctively climbed up as soon as I got into the water. Hou Changrong looked at it, how could he still climb up?
He then kicked, and with a bang, his head hit the stone. Then Hou Changrong jumped into the water and hit me, pressing my head into the water. The water was really smelly, and it was really vomiting.
And this scene is also considered to be the most realistic performance in the "Dream of the Red Chamber" play.
Perhaps because they saw too much tragic love in "Dream of the Red Chamber", Hou Changrong and Chen Jianyue took advantage of their vacation to quietly obtain a marriage license in Nanjing on December 20, 1985.
There is no grand wedding, two young people who believe in love, only have a meal with both parents, even if they have completed the major events of life. Director Wang Fulin knows the fait accompli, and can only turn a blind eye.
"Wang Dao said to us, in today's terms, to open one eye and close one eye. And then when we got married, he also gave a gift, a porcelain plate. ”
In the play, Liu Xianglian lost You Sanjie, and Xiangling also died in Xue Pan's chaos after missing her love with Feng Yuan.
This pair of lovers have tasted the bitterness of love in the world of "Dream of the Red Chamber", so they have been married for more than 30 years, and they have cherished the "sweetness" of love.
"I don't think I chose 'Dream of the Red Chamber' wrongly, 'Dream of the Red Chamber' brought me a complete life, I had children in it, I had a lover, that is, all the things in a person's life were completed in "Dream of the Red Chamber"."
And their "sweetness" also just adds a warm color to the bleak ending of "Dream of the Red Chamber".
