Rebirth 1979: Marrying a poor girl at the beginning

Gong Xue was a reserved and graceful person. She didn't come up to them, but just stood there looking at Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu, but a sweet smile appeared on her lips.

For some reason, she was very happy to see Lin Zhengjun coming to the Beijing Film Studio. It was the excitement and joy of a fan meeting her idol.

Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu went into their respective rooms.

Zhu Lin followed into Tang Xiaofu's room, and Tang Xiaofu gave her a handful of White Rabbit candies: "Sister Zhu Lin, we are married."

Zhu Lin congratulated him a few times, then asked in surprise, "Xiao Fu, you two are newlyweds, so sweet and sweet, why don't you live together?"

Tang Xiaofu whispered something in Zhu Lin's ear, and Zhu Lin immediately covered her mouth and laughed sweetly: "I can't tell, he is so gentle and refined..."

"It's crazy!"

Tang Xiaofu smiled sweetly and said, "You stay with me at night, we can have a good chat, and I can have some peace and quiet."

"Okay! Let you rest and recuperate!" Zhu Lin was of course happy to do so.

At this stage, the status of actors is far inferior to that of screenwriters.

She was not a famous actress and had no right to live in a single room. Four people had to share a room, which was very inconvenient.

"Oh, by the way, I want to give you more roles!" Tang Xiaofu said with a smile.

"How to add?" Zhu Lin asked excitedly.

"In the original script, Wei Hong only had a plot about going to the countryside, and another plot about having a child before marriage. The boyfriend did not appear. I wanted to add the role of boyfriend, and also the interaction between the two of them, to contrast with the love of the third sister Jingqiu." Tang Xiaofu said.

In fact, this is also a small flaw in the original movie.

Wei Hong's writing is pale, thin and unrealistic.

These days, having a child before marriage is a very serious matter.

But Wei Hong looked nonchalant and did not show any inner struggle or distress!

Even a woman like Dasami cannot bear the social pressure of having a child before marriage, and she should be very scared and panicked.

After Tang Xiaofu finished speaking, she asked, "Zhu Lin, are you willing to act?"

Many actors are very resistant to this kind of "unclean" image of women.

The most typical example is Gong Xue.

In another time and space, the heroine Qin Nan of "Under the Bridge" is set to have a child before marriage. Gong Xue is very resistant and unable to overcome the psychological barrier. She also wants the director to change the play.

But this is the core setting of the character and the trigger point for all the plots. How can it be modified?

After being persuaded several times by the director, she was finally willing to take part in the performance.

Of course, the performance was very good and the role was a huge success, winning her both the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Awards for Best Actress.

"Of course I do!"

Zhu Lin said frankly: "In fact, many educated youth who went to the countryside were abandoned after being seduced. I want to bring the character of Wei Hong to life and make the audience spit on those bad men!"

"That's good. Tomorrow, Zhengjun and I will go talk to the director!" Tang Xiaofu said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you and Zhengjun!" Zhu Lin's face was full of anticipation.

……

The next day, morning.

Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu came to Xie Tieli's office at Beijing Film Studio.

Xie Tieli had already been allocated a house and was not living in the guesthouse, so Lin Zhengjun did not go to disturb him that night.

"Hey, Zhengjun, you two are finally here. Did you go to see Director Wang?"

Xie Tieli was very happy to see Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu, and personally poured tea for them.

"No! See you later!" Lin Zhengjun sat down on the chair opposite and said with a smile, "I'm here to do work, not to make connections!"

Xie Tieli nodded and told one of his assistants: "You can inform all the actors that the filming will officially start today at 12 noon, and the location is downstairs!"

"Okay!" The assistant went to call people and make a phone call.

Lin Zhengjun asked about the configuration of other actors.

Xie Tieli introduced it.

The captain of Xiping Village was originally played by Li Xuejian, but now Li Xuejian is still working in the Air Force Art Troupe and lives in the same dormitory with Pu Cunxin. He is only 24 years old, a real young hunk.

The actor for this version is Shi Yizhi, a veteran actor of the National Theatre of China, who played the role of Wang Lifa, the shopkeeper in "Tea House".

The wife of the captain of Xiping Village was originally played by Sarina, but the one chosen for this version is the veteran artist Zhang Ruifang.

She was a drama actor before liberation, and later acted in movies. She married and divorced the drama emperor Jin Shan, and is currently an actor at the Shanghai Film Studio.

There are many excellent works, such as "Li Shuangshuang", "The Great River Flows", and "The Young Generation", and I have also collaborated with Xie Tieli.

The original version of Jingqiu's mother was played by Xi Meijuan, and the Beijing Film Studio chose actress Lv Zhong from the People's Art Theatre to play the role.

Later, she played Empress Dowager Cixi in "Towards the Republic". A video of "Declaring War on France..." on Bilibili has been widely circulated!

Her husband is also an actor from the People's Art Theatre, named Wu Guiling, who played the role of Zhenyuan Daxian in the CCTV version of Journey to the West.

The company captain’s son was played by Zhou Liqing, who was from the Film Academy... Anyway, they were all elite soldiers.

The Beijing Film Studio is well-known enough, and Xie Tieli has a high status, second only to the four major directors, so everyone is very happy to participate.

Lin Zhengjun smiled and said, "Thank you, Director. I have another idea. Wei Hong's role should be strengthened..."

After listening to his idea, Xie Tieli nodded and said, "This is a sharp contrast, which is not bad. Is the script finished?"

"It's finished!" Tang Xiaofu was well prepared and handed it over immediately.

There weren’t many in the first place, just two scenes.

In one scene, Wei Hong and her boyfriend Zhang Lin go to the countryside together, and Jing Qiu sees them off;

In one scene, it was a scene in a production team. Everyone went home for the Spring Festival. Zhang Lin brought food to Wei Hong, but it snowed heavily. Zhang Lin refused to leave and snowed Wei Hong.

Well, this part by Lin Zhengjun and Tang Xiaofu was copied from "Under the Bridge" again.

“It’s a good change!”

After reading it, Xie Tieli frowned and said, "But, who will play Zhang Lin, the male character who plays with women? Have you thought of it?"

"I think Zhang Tielin from the Beijing Film Academy is very suitable!" Lin Zhengjun said with a smile.

"Well! I have an impression of that boy. He is suitable, handsome and looks like a gentleman!" Xie Tieli said with a smile.

"Great minds think alike!" Lin Zhengjun's heart was filled with evil amusement!

Zhang Tielin plays a scumbag first.

Later on, he became more and more corrupted, playing roles like a thief or a rapist.

He appeared in various film and television dramas with the image of a "rapist", such as "I envy Mr. Hou every day" in the 80s. He is a national first- and third-level actor, and a natural scumbag!

Beijing Film Studio has a lot of contact with Beijing Film Academy on a daily basis, and Xie Tieli has an even deeper connection with Beijing Film Academy.

Starting in 1950, he worked as a teacher at the Institute of Performing Arts (the predecessor of the Film Academy) for three years. He can be said to be one of the founders of the Film Academy and has many connections there.

Xie Tieli immediately called a department head and asked Zhang Tielin to come over.

Less than half an hour later, Zhang Tielin came over excitedly and asked excitedly: "Director, Teacher Lin, I heard that I can act too!"

Zhang Tielin hasn't acted in a play yet, but his classmates Fang Shu and Zhou Lijing both have works. He is so envious and of course wants to act.

Xie Tieli nodded and said, "That's right. For the sake of artistic integrity, we added a character, Wei Hong's boyfriend!"

Zhang Tielin frowned immediately and said, "Ah? Although this person hasn't appeared before, it seems that he has a bad style from the plot, right?"

Lin Zhengjun asked: "Tie Lin, do you have any concerns?"

Zhang Tielin scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "I want to play a positive character, even a supporting role is fine, and my image is more suitable for positive characters..."

Lin Zhengjun's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "Comrade Tielin, making movies is to promote the cultural and artistic undertakings of the motherland and to contribute to the four modernizations. How can we be picky in revolutionary work!"

Zhang Tielin was shocked: “Teacher Lin, you are criticizing!”
