On December 17, CCTV Chinese International Channel's "Chinese Literature and Art" paid tribute to the famous film performance artist Xiang Kun in its "Salute to the Classics".
Xiang Kun died of a heart attack in Beijing 13 years ago on February 15, 2009 at the age of 94. The program team invited his daughter Wang Huili to talk about her father's decades of light and shadow. The guests paying tribute were Xiao Guiyun, Bao Guoan, Li Chensheng, Lu Jun, Zuo Heng.
I wonder if you all know that Xiang Kun’s wife is the famous actor Ruan Fei. Her film masterpieces are "Jade Butterfly", "The Trill of Life", "Wedding", " Mountain City Snow ", "Camel Xiangzi", " Saber General " and other movies. The couple has three children, namely sons Wang Feili and Xiang Zhi (Wang Zhi), and a daughter Wang Huili.
Why do some of Xiang Kun’s children have the surname Wang and some have the surname Xiang? This is because Xiang Kun's real name was Wang Xiangkun, who was born in December 1915, and "Xiang Kun" was his stage name he changed in 1935 when he was studying at Nanjing National Drama College.
At the beginning of the program, at the invitation of the host Meng Shengnan, Wang Huili wrote the sentence that best expresses her father in her heart: "Truth, goodness and beauty are for the people, and thousands of faces are for art!" The host asked her why. Why should she use such a sentence to describe the father in her heart? She said: "My father's life and work are all about pursuing the truth, goodness and beauty in the world, and in his performing arts life, the ultimate pursuit is 'one person has a thousand faces'."
As a famous performing artist, the first movie Xiang Kun participated in was "Young China" released in 1942. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he worked as an actor in Shanghai Film Studio and Beijing Film Studio. He starred in and participated in more than 40 films in his life. His famous roles include Commander Zhang of the National Army in "The War in the South", Xu Pengfei of the Counterfeit Detective Department in "Forever in the Fire", and the animal in "Jade Butterfly". The physicist Murong Qiu, the underground party Yan Jun in "The Sword General", the bacteriologist Huang Weiwen in "Love and Friendship", the concentration camp director Zhang Chao in "Shangrao Concentration Camp", the die-hard He Yingqin in "Snow in the Mountain City", the negotiator Li Guoqing in " After the Armistice", the late Qing Dynasty official Sushun in "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace", etc.
Wang Huili said that his father is "one person with thousands of faces", and it is indeed true. Xiang Kun is handsome and well-groomed, but he not only plays many positive roles, but also often plays some negative roles. However, no matter what type of character, he can always be a person with thousands of faces, each with his own characteristics. The dramatic tension exuded during the performance is always very expressive. It can be said that he is full of drama.
In the classic film "Eternal Life in Fire", Xu Pengfei, played by Xiang Kun, is the director of the Counterfeit Investigation and Prevention Division, a stubborn spy leader, sinister, cunning, cruel and vicious. He first tried to use threats and inducements to bribe Xu Yunfeng, and after the attempt failed, he tried every means to bribe Sister Jiang. His performance was so good that the viewers gritted their teeth with hatred.
Regarding the artistic effect of his father's performance, Wang Huili introduced in the program: "Once my father was doing desk preparation at home, I squatted there and took a peek. First, there was a normal father, holding a script in one hand, and smoking in another hand. His expression gradually changed. From a father who I was very familiar with, his expression slowly became more and more fierce and ferocious, and the speed of smoking became faster and faster. He came faster and faster, and finally he stood up all of a sudden. I was shocked when I was outside the door. He stood up and threw the cigarette under his feet, crushed it with his feet, threw the script out, and then started to pull his sleeves and gritted his teeth tightly. I was so shocked..."
Yes, one minute in the play, ten years of work in the play. The acting skills of the veteran artist Xiang Kun come from his deep grasp of the role, but also from his diligent pursuit of art.
When talking about his father's preparation for "The Battle of the South and the North", Wang Huili said: "He said I didn't sleep for four days and four nights, so I thought it was impossible. If you don't sleep for three days and three nights, it's no longer possible. But I later realized that it can really be done. Why? He embodied through cognition and experience, and immersed himself in the character of Chief Zhang from the bottom of his heart. He could only eat and drink, but not sleeping is a completely crazy devil. Status. Finally, through the joint efforts of the entire crew, the current Chief Zhang was presented. "
"Fire Old Summer Palace" is a film shot by Xiang Kun when he was 67 years old and the penultimate film he participated in in his life. "The Reappearance of Miracle" is the last movie starring Xiang Kun, in which he played the role of Lao Xia.
Speaking of playing the role of Su Shun, a powerful minister in the late Qing Dynasty in "The Old Summer Palace", Wang Huili said that his father was in poor health at that time, and many scenes needed to kneel: "Kneel for the emperor, kneel for the empress dowager, kneel for the imperial concubine... Not only his knees, he had coronary heart disease , and his angina pectoris was very severe. He took medicine and took drip. All rehearsals, rehearsals, and real shots were doctors and nurses holding bottles for drip, injecting liquid, kneeling there to rehearse, and pulling out the needle to shoot during the real shot." At the end of the program, "Chinese Literature and Art" "Salute to Classics" to Xiang Kun was: "The villain on the screen, the good man in life, the drama emperor on the stage, and the mortal world in the world. I once went to "The Battle of the South and the North", went to the water and fire to save the people, and also learned "General Sword". The art of the sea of art has risen and rise throughout my life, always cultivated the soul, played the ugliness of human nature, and knew that we should keep the truth and create new things. There are no small roles in life, and every move shows the spirit."
Commander Zhang, Xu Pengfei, Murong Qiu, Su Shun, etc., every role played by the old artist Xiang Kun "live" in the hearts of Chinese audiences...
