Huang Zongying's last screen appearance was filmed in 2017 and released in 2018. The film "Please Remember Me" directed by Peng Xiaolian; in 2017, at the 6th Xu Chi Literature Award ceremony, Huang Zongying won the first "China Reportage Creation Lifetime Achievement Award"; last year, Huang Zongying won the 7th "Shanghai Literature and Art Award" Lifetime Achievement Award.

She was unable to go to the scene due to physical reasons, so she asked her son Zhao Zuo to receive the award on his behalf and read the award speech on behalf of her -
"At this moment, I want to say to Ba Lao, Zuolin and all the teachers and commanders: The students did not disappoint you, my little sister did it! I want to thank the audience and readers in Shanghai for their love for nearly a century; I want to thank the party for their teachings for nearly a century; I want to thank this land, thank the people for their support for nearly a century; I bowed."
2016, the four-volume "Huang Zong English Collection" was published. On December 31, the last afternoon of that year, "Sinan Literature House" was filled with enthusiastic readers, and many people stood and listened to the full lecture. Huang Zongying, who had been recuperating in East China Hospital for a long time, was originally going to meet readers who loved her. Unfortunately, she was on the operating table and missed this date to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new.

At that time, director Hu Xuehua recalled that when she visited Huang Zongying a few days ago, she was in good condition. "I showed her the photos of Jiao Huang and Liu Xiaoqing . Teacher Zong Ying commented: Jiao Huang is old, Liu Xiaoqing is still so young and beautiful."
Huang Zongying is the unforgettable "sweet sister" in the Chinese film industry
Huang Zongying is a famous Chinese performing artist and writer.
In 1925, Huang Zongying was born in a family of senior intellectuals. My father is a chief engineer of the telephone bureau. Huang Zongying, who ranks fifth in the family, has two sisters, two brothers, and two younger brothers. When Huang Zongying was 9 years old, Huang Zongying's father, who was a "friend and 'slave' of children", died of illness. After the family was in decline, Huang Zongying had to drop out of school and stay at home. Huang Zongying, who is skillful and skilled, not only helps her mother with housework, but also does needlework and cotton-padded jackets.
1943, by chance, Huang Zongying had the honor to step onto the drama stage and participated in the light comedy "Sweet Sister" directed by the old professor of the Academy of Drama Director Hu (formerly known as Hu Daozuo).
1946 starred in his first film "Chasing", and then played important roles in films such as "Happy Rhapsody", " Beauty Walking ", "Chicken Crown Early to See the Sky", "Street Alleys", "Crows and Sparrows". In 1954, she created the film script " Ordinary Career "; in 1960, she served as the screenwriter of the plot movie "The First Spring of the Sixties".

From the left side of the back row: Huang Zongluo (at the age of 86), Huang Zongjiang (at the age of 89), Huang Zonghuai (at the age of 80s), Huang Zonghan (at the age of 83)
Huang Zongying once said, "My life is my art. My art is my true and unchanging life in the past, present and future!"
html lost his father at the age of 9 and dropped out of school at the age of 15. The thing Huang Zongying cherishes most is reading books. Whenever she has time, even during the breaks of acting, she likes to sit down and learn something. She said that a considerable number of excellent literary works and their characters "accompanies me through the bumpy and tortuous life path, and urges me to make some contributions to literature and art."

Actors who became writers
Huang Zongying is also a writer. In 1965, she created her full-time work at the Shanghai Branch of the China Writers Association. The reportage "The Love of the Big Geese" and "Orange" have won the 1980 China Outstanding Reportage Award and the 1983-1984 China Outstanding Reportage Award.In 1988, he co-created the reportage collection "A Generation of Genius" with Ding Ling . In 2019, he won the "Lifetime Achievement Award" of the 7th Shanghai Literature and Art Award.
After the founding of New China, Huang Zongying became a film performing artist who moved to the ranks of professional writers earlier. She believes that a writer should make the sound he should make.
In 1952, Huang Zongying was transferred to the Shanghai Institute of Literature and was ordered to change careers and become a screenwriter. From then on, Huang Zongying on the screen gradually retired, and Huang Zongying, as the author of the reportage "The Cabin", "The Love of the Geese" and "The No Clouds in the Sky", became widely known.
Her "Geese Love" calls for an unfair botanist to implement intellectual policies and rehabilitate him.
In order to help scientists studying alpine plant ecology realize their dream of establishing an observation station in Tibet, Huang Zongying raised funds and brought his team to Tibet three times to help female scientists realize their dreams. The first time she went to Tibet, she wrote the reportage "The Cabin"; the second year, she visited Tibet for the second time, and she followed and filmed the documentary "The Cabin"; the third time she went to Tibet, Huang Zongying, who was nearly 70 years old, and the scientists visited Yarlung Zangbo River Grand Canyon , and was in a coma for two days and two nights due to severe altitude sickness.

The outline of the first script written by Huang Zongying is called "Ordinary Career". It was passed once the script was completed, which inspired her. But then she was not so lucky. She recalled that she wrote 8 outlines in 10 months, but all of them were killed. Writing scripts is too "hard". Fortunately, the leader at that time Xia Yan told her that if she could not write scripts, she would be fine if she published a few essays or reportage every year. Speaking of this, Huang Zongying also bluntly said: "I graduated from junior high school and didn't know what reportage is. But I want to write anything except scripts."
In 1982, Huang Zongying went to Tibet with a delegation of Chinese writers and followed the ecological scholar Xu Fengxiang for field investigations throughout the process. Finally, he wrote the "Cital House" that shocked readers. But writing a good reportage is not easy, and writers must go to the front line of the story to observe and record. In the 1990s, Huang Zongying followed Xu Fengxiang to Tibet for the third time, but a serious altitude sickness occurred, causing great damage to her body.
In "Kefan Listening", Huang Zongying recalled: "After lacking oxygen, if I had come back then, I probably wouldn't have been so powerful. I fainted on May 1 and woke up on May 3. Later, I insisted on turning the corner of the Yarlung Zangbo River before rushing back with the brigade. I have been working with illness for more than 20 days, so my blood vessels were always seriously injured."
In my later years, Huang Zongying also had a dream of reportage. "I have long wanted to interview an expert who studies manure, go to the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and go to his home." Stills from Huang Zongying starring in the movie "Blessings for Children" (1952)
The old-age Huang Zongying has always maintained the lifestyle of an intellectual, "let his brain move every day", reading books, practicing calligraphy, and sometimes playing the piano. She once said in "Kefan Listening", "I have to practice dancing when I wake up in the morning, of course I can't go to the street to dance, but I can practice it. I have never felt bored, I have a wide range of interest in living, and I can't even survive."
"The ugly girl is now full of snow. There is not much spring and flowers blooming, and many winds bully the sky. The old dreams are left on the screen and the wilderness continue to be a new chapter. The ambition of my heart has not been scattered, and I wander around the room for a hundred times." In "Kefan Listening", the self-narration poem of "Sweet Sister" is still in my ears.
Open Huang Zongying's collection of works, and his lively expression filled the lines, and his straightforward emotional expression was revealed at a glance. As some people commented: Huang Zongying’s biggest influence on China may not be films, but her literature.
often has a pair of curious eyes
In the eyes of many peers, Huang Zongying is an extraordinary talented woman. In the eyes of writer Li Hui, she is a person who is always curious about life and knowledge. "Every time I see her, she always reads. After she is over 80 years old, she is still reading and writing a diary every day.She told me that every morning, she would listen to half an hour of English teaching radio, learn English, and even learn Chinese herbal medicine. She said, ‘I know I can’t learn it. I take it as a part of my life’. "
"Huang Zongying's Collection" was published by Shenzhen Haitian Publishing House. As the organizer of the collection, Li Hui said that this may be a fate commemorating Huang Zongying and Shenzhen. "After Mr. Zhao Dan's death, Huang Zongying left Shanghai to Shenzhen to establish a cultural company and a bookstore. It was in 1985, when Teacher Zong Ying "goed to the market". It can be said that he was the "first person to eat crabs" among literati. But, where did Teacher Zongying understand business practices? The bookstore ended shortly after opening, and she returned to Shanghai. But she has this kind of personality. She does it when she is intrigued and dares to try anything, even if she may not do everything well. "

Four marriages and loves endlessly
Huang Zongying had four marriages in her life.
She dared to love and hate, and pursued the true and beautiful love, but fate played a joke with her. In 1943, Huang Zongying first got married when she was 18 years old. Her first husband was Guo Yuantong, the director of the troupe at that time. His stage name was Yifang. He got married. 18 days later, she passed away due to a heart attack.
1946, 21-year-old Huang Zongying married Cheng Shuyao, who took good care of her. In this year, she went from stage to the screen and starred in the first movie "Chasing".
Then, she and Zhao Dan co-starred in "Happy Rhapsody". A talented man and beautiful woman are becoming more and more in love. Zhao Dan said to Huang Zongying: "I think you should be my wife. "After the filming of "Happiness Rhapsody" was completed, their love finally became a "Happiness March".

Later, after Cheng Shuyao and Shangguan Yunzhu got married, the two families still maintained warm exchanges.
Cheng Shuyao and Shangguan Yunzhu's son Wei Ran recalled that at that time, Huang Zongying often visited his house. When his father was busy, Huang Zongying's nanny would go to kindergarten to take him home together and wait for his father to get him off work before picking him up. "Aunt Zongying and my mother are both film actors, and they have more contact. The reportage "Star" selected in the second volume of "Huang Zong's English Collection" was written to commemorate my mother, full of sisterhood. ”

1963, Yu Ling (fourth from left) had a discussion with Shanghai Film Troupe actors Zhao Dan (first from right), Zhang Ruifang (third from left), Qin Yi (third from right), Shangguan Yunzhu (second from left), Huang Zongying (first from left), etc. in the Art Hall.
As the saying goes: Disaster comes from the mouth. Zhao Dan, who is upright in character, has no restraint. His straightforward words and deeds made his wife Huang Zongying, who is 10 years younger than him, often frightened him. "It's not a family, you don't go into the door. "Since Huang Zongying is in love with Zhao Dan's sense of justice and courage, he has no regrets about following him ups and downs for a long time. Huang Zongying said that the most "distant" plot in her life was "It is difficult to be Zhao Dan's wife". As Zhao Dan's wife for 30 years, it was not until the last few years of Zhao Dan's life that it was a little peaceful.
On October 10, 1980, Zhao Dan passed away due to illness. Huang Zongying, who was lively by nature, lived alone for 13 years.
When Huang Zongying went to the United States to visit relatives, she wanted to translate the poems of a foreign poet. When she encountered a problem, she wrote to her brother Huang Zongjiang's good friend Feng Yidai for advice. After that, the two continued to hotline, and they became increasingly affectionate, and they began to send letters to Hongyan.
At a lecture, a young man asked Huang Zongying, you still Will you find a partner? Huang Zongying said, I originally married to the vast river, but now if I want to get married, I want to marry the "sea" with better knowledge.
1993, one was 80 years old, the other was 68 years old; one lived in Beijing and the other lived in Shanghai. In the "Seventh Heaven" in Beijing (Feng Yidai's house is on the seventh floor, commonly known as "Seventh Heaven"), Huang Zongying married the "sea" Feng Yidai in her mind. Many relatives and friends witnessed their happiness.

Feng Yidai said that Huang Zongying was "a 70-year-old man with a 17-year-old temper". It can be seen that he favored the "sexy sister" Huang Zongying. After marriage, they took care of each other and encouraged each other; retired to the Book Forest, and competed for writing.At her home in Shanghai, Huang Zongying ordered her nanny to make a lot of refreshments; in Beijing, it was snowing, Huang Zongying, who loved studying, went to the senior citizen university to study. When she came back, she took the wrong path and got home very late. Feng Yidai was worried about her safety, so she kept waiting until Huang Zongying returned home. Later, Feng Yidai had a cerebral infarction and Huang Zongying also had a cerebral infarction. They supported each other and walked through 10 years of marriage together.
Huang Zongying said that the 10 years after marriage are a very fulfilling 10 years and a brilliant 10 years. A book " Pure Love " is the best testimony to the love between the couple after 10 years of marriage.
No matter how much you love, you cannot escape the separation of your lover. In 2005, Feng Yidai, his last close lover, also passed away.

Six letters from Huang Zongying to me -
Miss Tianjie'er, who "a breath still exists and will not fall into the battle sail"

Author Zhang Changhua explained:
Huang Zongying I came into contact with him late, after she and Yidai were combined, but my contact with her has never been interrupted for twenty-six years. After Yidai passed away, she returned to Shanghai and had been ill in East China Hospital for more than ten years. I like Zong Ying's words very much. She says "I write my heart by hand". When writing, she doesn't pay attention to the subject, predicate, object, and figure. She often doesn't play according to common sense and suddenly aphorism comes out. The letter in 2002 said, "The ending is too heavy for me" and refers to the article I wrote about her saying that she had a pen that looked like a rafter. She thought it was too good to be praised and asked me to change it.
I and Zong Ying were closely related to each other. After 2010, I went to work in the folk magazine "Baijiahu" and asked her to write articles for the magazine to enhance her reputation. She never abandoned her and was quite fond of our small folk publication. At the end of 2011, she suddenly sent me an autobiography "The Thought of Destiny" with more than 20,000 words with registration. I finished reading it in one breath and sighed at her miserable fate. The manuscript was completed intermittently by her sickbed with a hard shell book on her knees. According to her words, I was written in response to the Huang Clan Ancestral Hall in Ruian, Zhejiang. The original manuscript was collected by the ancestral hall. The only copy was sent to me to be her first reader. Her trust moved me. Because she had no information to check when she was writing, she could only write it based on her memory. The time, place, and characters were inevitably somewhat different, so I went to the library to check the information and help her correct the mistakes. Finally, I made two versions of the manuscript: the complete version and the sub-book. The story book is serialized in "Baijiahu". A year later, I introduced the full text to Mr. Zang Jie of Qingdao Newspaper Group and published by "Gosh Talk".
In 2011, I went to the hospital to see her. She wrote an inscription on my album: "A breath still exists, and the sails will not fall." When I went to see her again the next year, she wrote Zhao Dan's poem "There are great blessings for the ups and downs, and the prisons are still dark. The ups and downs are extremely changeable, and the art beads in hell are sought after."

Comrade Changhua:
Follow the boxes and cabinets to find the pen and inkstone of Mr. Feng (Feng Yidai, editor's note). Zha Naomeng joined the school to buy rice paper and Yuan book paper from the stationery store and tried to write the title of the book. Mr. Feng has never touched a brush in twelve years, and I have not had the basic skills of copying the calligraphy, so I can't write it all the time. He said he would write again tomorrow. I think the children and grandchildren may not have a place to spread paper and ink during the big week, so he will do his own choice to send you a bunch of broken words. I believe that comrades in the art editor always have the ability to find characters with personality but not "cowardly" to piece together. It would be interesting if each person chooses a character to arrange them. The tough one is mine, and the elegant one is his. Anyway, it will be difficult to achieve a positive result within two or three months. Let’s try it hard to rely on the support of the artist.
Unless a stroke of magic comes out, it is considered handing over the paper. I hope you have a happy Mooncake Festival.

We were too thick-skinned and decided to rewrite it. Yidai

Second post 2002-2-28
Brother Changhua:
Yidai has been in the hospital for almost three months. I'm sick, too. Originally, we didn't participate in the opinion of others' writing. At this moment, we only changed the fact that I fell ill in Tibet because Brother Zong Luo wrote it by mistake. Zong Luo took the organization's plan to discuss at that time as a fact. At the end, please change it for your children, because every time you get sick, it depends on your children and grandchildren! The final sentence
is too heavy for me. I haven't started writing for three years, so please change it. Thanks.Dizzy, stop writing. Thank you again.

The third post after the winter solstice 2011
Changhua Brother:
Letters and the monthly magazine "Baijiahu" have been received one after another, and it has been released to 130 issues, and I don't know. Why did you remember to invite me to write an article until now? But, it's fine. My hometown of Ruian, Zhejiang, will build a three-story building and the Ruian Huang Family Ancestral Hall. I must write a detailed autobiography. It is unreasonable not to write, so let’s just submit it to two or more manuscripts. Don't urge me. I'm reading two good books and can't let it go.
"Baijia Lake" has a variety of themes, rich content and proper arrangement, and is a good magazine. Unfortunately, the font is too small, and it looks a bit useless. I am more than 200 years old, but I don’t wear glasses to read newspapers. I have to wear reading glasses to read your magazines.
This time, please keep it for later use. When someone sends me a registered mail, I will send you a copy of my commemorative stamp. I don't really believe in the small mailbox in the hospital. I won’t read
.

The fourth post at East China Hospital
2011-11-24
Changhua Friend:
Today (November 24) finally wrote a simplified article of his own "Destination of Destiny". It is written on my hard shell notebook as you wish. I wrote about 20,000 words. Many people can’t remember the names of places. Fortunately, I wrote this year, and my brain will become more degenerate next year and after. I also have to copy the draft onto the manuscript and send it to you. The photos are a bit troublesome. Our house was devastatingly confiscated by Jiang Qing, and some of the paper with words and photos were not left behind. Some friends found some photos for me one after another, but they were all taken away by someone else’s book. I focused on Zhao Dan. You try to mail order Liu Shu wrote the symphony of fate "Biography of Zhao Dan" in 2010. I bought three copies and was taken away. The photos are the most complete, because Liu Shu is a researcher at the China Film Art Museum. You buy one. If I really can't buy it, I'll find a way... I don't know what to say to you anymore. Tired, stop.
Zong Ying In the evening
I sent my memorial seal and letter there. Do you receive it? I hope to report it.
November 24, 2011

Commemorative stamp given to the author by Huang Zongying
The fifth stamp 2011-12-30
Changhua Weile Brother:
Today is Friday, December 30.
I am choosing calligraphy and painting for you. I saw that the calligraphy and paintings printed in Baijiahu magazine were still very charming. I hope you can use more Adan's calligraphy and paintings. After all, this is his second artistic youth. His fifty-five and sixty-one pages ("Zhao Dan's Album. Editor") were his writings at Shanghai Fine Arts College. He was fifteen years old at the age of 14, and his actual age was only fourteen. There was a teacher's commentary, the scientific name Zhao Fengao, and then the movie was made and changed its name to Zhao Dan. I saw that the red color in your magazines is very bright, so I always look for red ones. Actually, you are experts, you can choose it yourself.
In addition, I am worried that some of the words on the calligraphy and painting pages are unclear, so I will write the important ones below:
There are great blessings for great ups and downs, and I have been in prison for ten years, and my ups and downs are extremely changeable. I have been searching for art beads in hell.
is OK. After making the version, please send the album back to me. I have no book in my hand and I have sent it all. I would like to forgive me if I ask for it without any worries.
OK, my handwriting is not good!
I am very serious, I regard "breaking my thoughts" as my final stroke.
Your Zongying
December 30, 2011
The album may arrive first. Every Saturday, Comrade Zhou Yi is obliged to serve me. I think I'd better send it to the editorial department, worried that you will not be at home.
The sixth letter of 2012 The day after the seeds of the seeds
Changhua Brother:
You have received the letter of inscription from me. But I have the problem of sweating . When the phone rings, I sweat all over; when a patient comes to my bed and talks, I sweat all over; when I have a meal, I sweat all over... I have to put the eight pieces of cardboard you gave me in a book, and sit and watch CCTV-11 opera. The day before yesterday, I felt that my hands were no longer wet, so I looked for the eight pieces of cardboard. I checked the books on the small table beside the bed one by one, but there was no, and I was worried that I would sweat all the time.Today, I had to decide to write for you with the only vague jam paper I can pretend to be. It was written on my knees, which was very unreasonable and could be considered as having to finish the task. One day, I suddenly found the paper jam you gave me, so I'll write it again.
mail you in a hurry. When you receive it, please send me a text message on your phone. The small email address at the entrance of the hospital made me worried. Wishing
Ruyi
Zongying one day after the seeds
