One day in 1995, Zhang Jizhong was on crutches in front of a hotel and waited for hours in a row, just to meet Yuan Heping, who was known as the "world's first martial finger".
Yuan Heping had refused the crew's invitation twice before, but Zhang Jizhong still did not want to give up, so he decided to personally invite it.
When the door opened, Zhang Jizhong quickly limped over and said, "Mr. Yuan, in ancient times, Liu Beisan Gu Maolu asked Zhuge Liang to come out of the mountain, and now Zhang Jizhong went down to Jiangnan three times to ask Mr. Zhuge to take a shot, I hope you agree." ”
In 1994, after the broadcast of the Journey to the West, the Red Chamber, and the Three Kingdoms, the response was enthusiastic. The station also received countless letters from the audience, that is, they hoped to put the Water Margin on the screen.
Later, after careful consideration by the leaders, it was finally decided to shoot "Water Margin".
In addition to "Dream of the Red Chamber", the other three masterpieces have fight scenes, but due to the limitation of technology at that time, the special effects in Journey to the West and the martial arts in the Three Kingdoms have become permanent regrets.
In order to solve this problem, Zhang Jizhong wanted to ask Yuan Heping to do martial arts guidance, but Yuan Heping only gave guidance to the film, he hated the TV series shooting cycle was too long, never did the TV series guidance, until he saw Zhang Jizhong personally come to please, only to relax and say: "You are really persistent, I should go down." ”
This is also the first TV series in which Yuan Heping served as a martial arts instructor.
This TV series has been broadcast for 23 years now, and the current situation of the actors is also very different, and today Uncle Chai will take you to understand the drama and outside of several starring actors.
Ding Haifeng (Wu Song)
The CCTV version of "Water Margin" has a total of 43 episodes, of which 7 episodes are mainly based on Wu Song, especially when Wu Song fights tigers and fights and kills Ximen Qing, the average rating is about 20%, and it is a rating champion for several consecutive days.
According to the description in the original book, Wu Song was a big man with clear grievances, strong martial arts, and a very heavy jianghu qi, otherwise how could he kill the tiger with his bare hands?
Ding Haifeng himself has a large skeleton, his facial features are angular, and there seems to be a murderous spirit in his eyes, which is simply Wu Matsumoto Matsu here.
After the TV broadcast, Ding Haifeng, who played Wu Song, became a hero in the hearts of the people of the whole country, and during that time, the tiger puppets and toys in the country were sold out, which really made the traders make a lot of money.
After the broadcast of "Water Margin", Ding Haifeng has been active on the screen, and Ding Haifeng's figure can be seen in works such as "The Years of Burning Passion" and "Wolf Warrior 2".
Especially in the 2017 anti-corruption drama "In the Name of the People", the role of Zhao Donglai, played by Ding Haifeng, is humorous and funny at the same time full of justice, which is not inferior in the bones of many old dramas, and the role is shaped deeply into the body and mind.
It is reasonable to say that Ding Haifeng's tough guy route is good, and he will not worry about no drama if he develops well, but I don't know what he thinks, and he will actually make self-destructive classic behavior.
On March 7, 2021, the movie "Wusong vs Lion Building" starring Ding Haifeng was released online, and Ding Haifeng once again starred in the jealous and hateful Wudu head after 23 years, and he wanted to come to a wave of memories to kill, but he did not expect ...
The whole movie is full of the taste of "three noes", no acting, no action, no production, even Ding Haifeng himself, with a clearly blessed belly, but let Pan Jinlian become the biggest attraction of this movie.
Unexpectedly, 23 years later, the wudu head who was happy to take revenge was finally bent for money!
ZHOU Ye Mang (LIN Chong)
Although Ding Haifeng's career is not guaranteed in the late festival, he is still a good man who cares for the family, compared with Ding Haifeng, Zhou Yemang, who plays Lin Chong, is lamentable in reality.
In the Water Margin 108 Good Men, Lin Chong, as the chief instructor of the 800,000 Forbidden Army, said that he was the top of the list of force values, and no one should have doubts, but Zhou Yemang himself was a martial arts foundation.
Zhou Yemang was originally a voice actor, and later met Zhang Shaolin, Zhang Shaolin in the preparation of "Water Margin", originally let Zhou Yemang audition Ximen Qing, and later felt that he was not obscene enough, but with his own heroism, so he decided to play Zhou Ye mang as Lin Chong.
Because Zhou Yemang himself has no martial arts skills, in the TV series, most of Lin Chong's difficult actions are completed by stand-ins.
In the play, Lin Chong, as the head of the 800,000-strong forbidden army, could not protect his wife, and the audience sighed one by one; outside the play, Zhou Yemang took the initiative to "abandon his wife and abandon his son".
After the broadcast of "Water Margin", Zhou Yemang became famous and married Xi Meijuan, the golden rooster film queen at that time.
Shortly after the marriage, Xi Meijuan became pregnant but unexpectedly miscarried, and did not become pregnant again until 9 years later.
It is said that the child is an angel sent by heaven to promote family harmony, but the arrival of Zhou Yemang's child is to make a decision for this marriage.
After the birth of the child, Zhou Yemang filed for divorce on the grounds of emotional discord, and then married another wife.
Xi Meijuan while raising children, while acting, now also has a place in the entertainment industry; and Zhou Ye Mang is in the river, in the previous hit drama "An Jia", Zhou Ye Mang once played the role of Tian Tian Dad, from the former male number one, reduced to the current dragon set actor, really infinite feelings.
HE Qing (Li Shishi)
Compared with Xi Meijuan, He Qing was relatively lucky.
As the only actress who has starred in four famous works, He Qing must have a superiority in appearance.
Li Shishi was originally a famous prostitute with both color and art, and even the "Emperor of The Wind" Song Huizong fell under her pomegranate skirt, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to abandon the more than 3,000 wives in the harem, secretly dig tunnels, and also go out of the palace every few days to be pampered.
But it was such a Qinglou woman who was the key figure of Zhao'an, and Song Jiang got in touch with Song Huizong through her, letting the emperor know his own thoughts about being willing to recruit an.
In the TV series "Water Margin", Li Shishi finally gave up fame and fortune and wandered the world with Yan Qing, which can also be regarded as a good death.
But in reality, He Qing's love life can be described as a twist and turn.
She first had an affair with the actor Liu Weiyin, and after separating, she was involved in Xu Yajun's marriage, and for a time, the rumors of He Qingdang Xiaosan spread all over the world.
It is said that at that time, xu Yajun, in order to be able to be with He Qing, also cruelly "abandoned" his wife who had a heart attack.
After that, He Qing ignored the infamy of the "third party" and successfully sent herself to the grave of marriage.
There is a saying in the jianghu: If you come out and mix, sooner or later you will have to pay it back.
A few years later, others took He Qing's road, leaving He Qing with no way to go, and the marriage finally ended in failure, and Xu Yajun married a new family.
He Qing, who was frustrated in the love scene, developed well in the workplace, and had excellent performances in works such as "The Old Lady with Two Guns", "The Great Mansion Gate 1912", and "The Biography of the Female Doctor Mingfei".
Later, he married actor Liao Jingsheng, and this time he finally polished his eyes.
In 2015, He Qing was diagnosed with brain cancer, and Liao Jingsheng put down his work to take care of and accompany her wholeheartedly.
Perhaps because of the experience, He Qing also looked down on many things, knowing that the family is the most important, after the condition improved, returned to the family wholeheartedly, and now she is basically no longer seen on the screen.
LI Xuejian (SONG Jiang)
After He Qing fell ill, he finally realized that he had found the right person, and Li Xuejian also had a wife on the road to fight cancer.
In "Water Margin", Song Jiang, played by Li Xuejian, was particularly deeply rooted in the hearts of the people at that time, making the audience hate it and itch their teeth.
Especially when he led the good men of Liangshan to accept the An Shengzhi, he poked his ass high, looking like a slave of renjun, which was both funny and angry. It is said that when a Water Margin fan watched this paragraph, he was so angry that Song Jiang's ass was a foot on the TV screen, and the color TV was scrapped.
You should know that at that time, not everyone had a color TV, and later this matter was also on the news, and after the Central Station heard about it, it also bought a color TV to pay the audience.
Not only that, when "Water Margin" was popular, Li Xuejian was thinking of going back to his hometown, and his wife quickly stopped him after learning about it: "You still don't go back to Shandong recently, the neighbors heard that you are coming back, waiting in line to beat you!" ”
It turned out that the audience's sense of substitution was too strong, and they felt that the ending of the good man of Liangshan was caused by him, so when he went home, so as to beat him up and avenge the good man of Liangshan!
In the play, Song Jiang is a brother of Liangshan in his career, but his wife died early in the family, and he was also given green by a concubine; outside the play, Li Xuejian has won 33 film emperors from the film for more than 40 years, including all the awards in China, and is the only Grand Slam film emperor in China, and his wife is as loving as ever.
The only fly in the ointment is that in 2000, Li Xuejian was found to have nasopharyngeal cancer, and for the next 21 years, he has been tormented by illness, but fortunately his wife is around to comfort and accompany him.
In the time of fighting against the disease, Li Xuejian did not give up the pursuit of his acting career, although the number of works is not much, but almost all the fine works, such as "The Sky of History", "1942", "The Young Marshal" and so on.
In 2012, Li Xuejian won the Lifetime Achievement Award, and all the people present stood up to salute, and on the podium, he said: "I can still do it for a while, I will shoot better scenes and dedicate themselves to everyone." ”
Looking forward to Li Xuejian's new works.
Xiu Qing (Hua Rong)
In addition to old artists like Li Xuejian, who dedicate their lives to the career of acting, there are countless people who love acting, and Xiu Qing is one of them.
In the casting of "Water Margin", it was originally his brother who pulled him to see the liveliness, but he did not expect that both of them were selected, and the brother played the young Gao Li, and he played Hua Rong.
Although Xiu Qing did not play much in TV, he could impress the audience every time he appeared.
Especially in the scene where the traitor Gao Li hat is shot, he takes an arrow, aims, and strikes the string, all in one go, and indeed deserves the name of "Divine Arrow", and people clap their hands and applaud, and the last part where Song Jiang tastes poisoned wine and dies together, also really earns a handful of tears from the audience.
"Little Li Guang" Hua Rong is indeed sentient and righteous.
Xiu Qing was originally a Yu opera actor, and later the opera market declined, and Xiu Qing and his brother found another way out.
Xiu Qing once gave Er Dongsheng a martial arts substitute in "Dharma Ancestor", and then entered the show business circle to develop in Hong Kong, but he did not catch up with the good timing, Hong Kong film and television went into decline, and the rapid development of film and television dramas in the mainland returned to the mainland.
After the broadcast of "Water Margin", Xiu Qing also had some fame and gradually opened up the drama road in the mainland.
In 2003, when Zhang Jizhong was filming "Tianlong Babu", Xiu Qing played the role of Murong Fu, although he was a villain, he was also greatly praised, even if Liu Yifei saw him now, he would still call his cousin.
Since then, Xiu Qing has been active on the screen, Ouyang Ke in "The Legend of the Eagle Shooter", the Black Heart Old Man in "Xue Xian", Wen Ruohan in "Chen Qing Ling"...
Although they are all supporting characters, each character has its own personality characteristics, which Xiu Qing grasps very well.
"Water Margin" was originally from preparation to release, lasted 3 years and 8 months, a single integration of about 1 million, the actor's salary is not high, as the starring Song Jiang, at that time the film salary was only 10,000 / episode, and now the tens of millions of film remuneration is really incomparable.
And the shooting conditions at that time were extremely difficult, and the actors also suffered a lot.
Zhang Yakun, an actor who plays Zhang Shun as "white stripe in the waves", in order to reflect the good water nature of the character, stood in the water every day in the winter to practice rafts, practiced with blood bubbles on his hands, and fell into the water many times during the period.
Zang Jinsheng, who plays Lu Zhishen, in order to gain weight, eats 20 eggs a day, drinks protein powder, gains 90 pounds in 2 months, and leads to endocrine disorders, so he went to the operation of thyroid removal.
In order to reflect the real tiger fighting effect, Wu Song and Li Kui played real tigers, and those two scenes were also filmed last before the killing, so they were afraid of accidents.
The crew also bought them 100,000 yuan of accident insurance for this purpose, and even so, Wu Song almost became a tiger snack.
In the end, with the superb acting skills of the actors, they dedicated themselves wholeheartedly to the art, and only together did they create such a well-known classic work.
So far, it has been 23 years since the broadcast of "Water Margin", and some of the actors have gone further, some are still in place, and some have already withdrawn from the film and television circle.
People in the same play have different fates, and perhaps the different endings of the good men of Liangshan have also led to different fates of outsiders in a sense.
It really responds to that sentence: drama is like life, life is like drama.
. END .
