Every era has its unforgettable works that audiences cannot help but mention and miss again and again. "Romance on Mount Lu", released in 1980, is undoubtedly the most classic work of the 1980s. .
"My jumping heart, why are you so flustered, like the calm lake, making waves..., you are so happy, why are you so intoxicated, like the white snowflakes, dancing all day long, Carefree, carefree, carefree, because the seeds of love have been deeply rooted in my heart..."
When the song sounded, many forgotten details came back to my mind again. Among them, the sweet love and the casual excitement make us seem to see the sweetness and beauty of first love again.
This film is the banner and sentiment of love for a generation, so no matter how the times change, the memory is indelible. The film not only has beautiful songs and people, but also very beautiful scenery.
The main scenery of this film, which can be called a miracle in the history of Chinese films, is taken from Mount Lu, including Huajing, Xianren Cave, Hanpokou, Lulin Lake, Bailu Cave Academy, With Wangjiang Pavilion and other twelve scenic spots as the background, the audience is shown a sweet picture of love through the use of emotions and scenes.
When I recall it, I can’t help but feel a hint of sweetness. It seems that we have replaced the male and female protagonists, and they staged a sweet love.
The crew of this film also spent a lot of money. In order to highlight the youth and beauty of the heroine Zhou Jun, they also specially bought 43 sets of youthful and beautiful dresses for her from Hong Kong. As the saying goes, "The clothes match the person." "With a saddle", Zhou Jun's beauty amazed a generation and is truly unforgettable.
Her passionate kiss with the male protagonist Geng Hua can be said to be the first kiss scene in China. The gentle kiss between Zhang Yu and Guo Kaimin is also known as "the first kiss in Chinese movies". It is still talked about today.
In 2018, this film was also rated as one of China's top ten outstanding love movies for the 40th anniversary of reform and opening up. In order to commemorate this film, a cinema was built on Lushan Mountain, and every person in the cinema was The only movie shown on the day was "Romance in Lushan Mountain".
Because of this, by 1999, the film had been screened for more than 6,300 times and won the Guinness World Record for "the longest continuous showing of a film in the same theater in the world".
When we keep our eyes fixed on Zhang Yu and Guo Kaimin, a pair of handsome men and women, do you still remember some of the old drama stars who acted as their supporting actors?
In the previous article, I introduced to you that Wu Hao, who plays Zhou Yun’s father Zhou Zhenwu, and Gao Chu, who plays his mother, are also a couple in real life, so when they appeared, their performances were very special. The tacit understanding is unforgettable. So who is the actor who plays Geng Hua's mother?
Her name is Zhi Shiming, formerly known as Zhi Weigui, and she was born in Cuijiazhuang, Dingxiang County, Shanxi Province in 1924. In 1938, he was admitted to the Popular Drama Club of Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei District No. 1, and starred in the stage plays "Unable to Tie", "Afraid of Not Remembering", "Eight Hundred Heroes", "Sakura Festival", etc.
Graduated from the Department of Literature and Art of North China United University in 1939, she later worked as an actress in the North China Liberated Area Art Troupe. After that, she also worked in the Northwest Field Service Corps, the July Drama Club of the Second Military Region of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the Third On the stage of the Fifth District Northward Drama Club and the Military District Anti-Enemy Drama Club.
As she performed more and more stage dramas, her acting skills became more and more proficient, such as "The Death of Li Xiucheng", "Brother and Sister Opening up Wasteland", "Couple Literacy", "Food", "Sister-in-law", etc. She has given wonderful performances in stage plays.
In 1949, with the founding of New China, there was a shortage of talents and everything was waiting to be done. She was transferred to the Northeast Film Studio as an actress, but it wasn’t long before she was transferred again. He joined the Shanghai Film Studio and officially became a professional film actor.
She is Aunt Liu in "Victorious Reunion", she is the grandmother in "Gold and Silver Beach", she is Mother Lu in "The Great Starting Point", she is the mother in "Spring in the Water Town" Sister-in-law Lian Kun, she is Mama Pan in "The Ordinary Career" and Aunt Wang in "The Red Seed".
Although she plays most of the supporting roles written by mothers in the film, this does not affect her enthusiasm for acting at all. She will still interpret every role she plays to perfection.
Her responsibilities are not limited to acting. She has also served as the party branch secretary and deputy director of the Shanghai Film Actors Troupe, a member of the party committee of the Shanghai Film Studio and the branch secretary of the creative studio.
However, she did not miss out on starring in some film and television works. She was Mi Aijin in "Maya Dai", played the role of Aunt Zhao in "Dead Trees", played Sun Youpo in "Li Shuangshuang", "Silkworm Flower Girl" as Sister Lingzhen.
The Sun Youpo played by Zhi Shiming in "Li Shuangshuang" is very wonderful. This is a selfish character who also loves petty gains.
She plays Sun Youpo, who always likes to work but does not contribute any effort when working. When she can get benefits, she is more "active" than anyone else. When she steals wooden boards from the company, she is discovered by Li Shuangshuang. After scolding him on the spot, she felt both hatred and fear of Li Shuangshuang.
Zhi Shiming interprets the character's characteristics very vividly, and the mother Geng Hua she played in "Love in Lushan" is a humble and kind mother.
Each character has a huge personality span, but as a performing artist, she can seamlessly connect them and interpret them perfectly and unforgettably.
After her retirement in 1983, she also played the role of the aunt in "The Purple Crown". Although she was not a big hit, her contribution to the film industry was by no means the little flower and flower she is today. Xiaoxianrou can be compared with several starring roles.
Her husband Jin Xi, who is 5 years older than her, is also a famous film and television actor and the founder of puppet films in New China. His "Little Heroes" is the first color puppet film in our country. Short film.
"Xiaomei's Dream" directed by him is my country's first animated short film combining puppets and real people, while "Magic Brush" is the first Chinese art film to win international awards.
In addition, his works include "The Peacock Princess", "Portrait", "The Flying Horse", "Afanti's Story of Sowing Gold", "The Kingdom of Half Children", etc., which can be said to have pioneered Many firsts for the Muppet films.
The two were like-minded and lived a happy and sweet married life. Unfortunately, Jin Xi died of illness in 1997 at the age of 78, and there is very little information about Zhi Shiming on the Internet.
She is already 96 years old. No information has been found about her situation in her later years, but no information is not the best news? I only wish her happiness and health!
