Recently, the awarding ceremony of the " July 1 Medal " was grandly held in the Great Hall of the People.
Among the 29 nominated candidates, the familiar "Jiang Taigong" Blue Sky Wild was selected as the only candidate in the drama industry.
When looking at the kind face on the screen, Brother Pi's thoughts instantly returned to 31 years ago.
990, the 36-episode mythological drama " Investiture of Gods" filmed by Hong Kong, Taiwan and the mainland was broadcast on TV stations across the country. It was because of this classic mythological drama that the post-80s children born in the 1980s watched this classic mythological drama.
The "Fengshen List" has a very powerful lineup and the story is told in a complete way. It was popular in that era when cultural life was scarce, and there were thousands of people everywhere. It is still a classic mythological drama in the eyes of many people. The biggest feature of the drama is the design of costumes, props and scenes.
my country's Bronze ware was still used during the Shang and Zhou , and the costumes of characters should be relatively primitive, and even "pants" have not appeared yet.
But Pige estimated that director Guo Xinling should like ancient Greek and Ancient Egyptian mythology, and have also watched "Saint Seiya" and "Star Wars".
The architecture and interior decoration in the play all have a mixed style of ancient Greece and ancient Egypt.
The characters in the play do not wear pants, they all wear cool shorts instead. The soldiers on the battlefield do not wear helmets, but wear golden crowns, which reminds people of the Golden Saint Seiya.
Moreover, there are many popular group dances in the play at that time. The actresses were wearing nearly transparent silk and dancing magical awkward dances, making people blush. Many people couldn't understand the design of costumes and props at that time, and this became the most interesting part of this drama.
" The Romance of the Gods " creates a novel for Ming Dynasty Xu Zhonglin. Although the story background was earlier than "Journey to the West", it was published later than "Journey to the West", and its artistic value was much worse than "Journey to the West".
The plot comparison of the novel "The Romance of the Gods" is very adapted, mainly because it is impossible to restore the scene in the original work based on the shooting technology at that time.
However, the main story framework of this drama is still very loyal to the original work, and most classic plots have been retained, which has become the most complete and most restored version of the TV series adapted from "The Romance of the Gods" to date. In terms of performance, this drama is not as cult and bloody as the 1989 version, and is easier to accept by the audience at that time.
Blue Sky Wild, Daqi , Fu Yiwei, Tang Zhenzong ... Actors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions gathered together, which is also one of the most attractive things about this drama.
Although they had to wear those "vanguard" costumes, they still completed the filming of the series in a dedicated spirit.
It can be seen that the actors at that time all had a simple, serious and dedicated spirit, which is also the real reason for the success of the series.
31 years have passed since the broadcast of "The Investiture of the Gods". The actors in the play have different experiences, and some of them have left the entertainment industry.
What is their current situation? Brother Pi will take you to track their current situation.

After spanning half a century, he played the role of Dong Si in the play again. Lan Tianye was still at ease and completed in one go, and was in good spirits. It was obvious that he was not old.
And in the performance of the classic drama "Home" of Beijing People's Art Theater on October 2, Lan Tianye joined hands with the four generations of old, middle-aged and young actors of People's Art Theater to appear on the stage again amid the audience's applause and cheers, and performed 11 3 and a half hours of dramas on the drama stage at the age of 93. This move can be said to have created a miracle of the performance of an old artist.

In life, he is also a kind and amiable old man in his seventies.
His home has a cat and a dog, and he is accompanied by countless beloved calligraphy, paintings, books and strange stones. Every day, he takes time to post it on WeChat Moments, saying that he would post 100 photos called "Beijing People's Arts Picture Exhibition" to 100.

It is precisely because of this spiritual power that Lan Tianye was awarded the "July 1st Medal" by the Party and the State.
, Daqi ( King Zhou )

In the late 1980s, Fu Yiwei began to participate in TV series, and Su Daji in this play was definitely her milestone role.
Su Daji was originally the daughter of Su Hu . After being possessed by the nine-tailed vixen, her temperament changed drastically. Her methods were extremely cruel and her body exuded a charming aura, which made a boy like Brother Pi grit his teeth with hatred for her.
There was a report that Fu Yiwei was greatly affected by this role. People at that time were relatively simple, and his hatred of a character would affect the actor himself. Fortunately, she later created more distinctive roles, which made the audience gradually admire her acting skills.
Fu Yiwei has experienced two failed marriages. Her two ex-husbands are actress Yang Xiaodan and Beijing Dance Academy teacher. He has a son named Gaole male , but she is currently single.

He also participated in many good movies in the 1980s, and this drama is his first work to move towards the development of TV series.
As an enlightened king, Ji Fa has always been portrayed as a wise and powerful image. Zhang Xiaolin's image seems a bit immature, but because of his handsomeness, it still impressed the audience.
After this drama, Zhang Xiaolin's output gradually decreased. In recent years, he has become the deputy leader of the film troupe, focusing on the work of the troupe, and has never participated in film and television works again.

Ji Chang endured the huge grief and ate the meatballs. After returning, he rectified the troops and launched a mutiny.
This plot is also a shadow of childhood for many children. Everyone sympathizes with Bo Yikao's experience and holds even more hatred for Su Daji. Later, when Bo Yikao was named Ziwei Emperor when he was appointed as the gods, it was also a kind of comfort for him!
Tang Zhenzong entered TVB because of his younger brother Tang Zhenye. He made his debut as early as 1982.

But in this play, Nezha is more rustic, and he doesn't feel like Nezha, but more like Saint Seiya.
The difference can be seen more by comparing Nezha in CCTV's Journey to the West, but He Wei still interpreted this role very seriously.
In recent years, He Wei has also withdrawn from the entertainment industry. He opened a clothing factory and the business is very good. He probably doesn't want to act again.

Actors who play Zhou Wenwang Wei Qiming is the leader of the Shanghai People's Art Theater Actors Group. In addition to this drama, the most classic image he has created is Chen Yi in the movie "Mayor Chen Yi".

Shi Zhengquan was 70 years old on June 14, 1996.
Time flies, time is endless, we are all getting old, and around this drama, in addition to these classic characters, there are countless interesting things.
For example, its theme song is composed by Liu Nianji , Ma Youdao, and Zhang Minghe . The singers are two big names in the music industry: Alan Tam and Mao Amin . But they did not sing a chorus, but each recorded a version, the odd number episode was sung by Alan Tam; the even number episode was sung by Amin.
This song was also spread all over the country at that time. When Brother Pi heard the song, he still remembered the memories of watching "The Investiture of the Gods" back then.
htmlIn the 190s, each household could only receive two or three TV stations. Our choices were limited to what dramas we could see.
Fortunately, the TV series production at that time was very conscientious, and now these are rare classics.
