"Ao Lei Yi Lan" is a movie released in 1979. The heroine Ao Lei Yi Lan is the female leader of the Daur ethnic group. In the 17th century, the Tsar sent troops to invade the Yaksa area. Ao Lei Yilan led his tribe to cooperate with the Qing army and beat the invaders to defend his hometown. Finally, Emperor Kangxi bestowed a pair of armor to commend her achievements.
In order to film "Ao Lei Yi Lan", the director of the play has made great efforts, from the setting of the venue, the selection of actors and the development of the plot, they have made extremely detailed arrangements. However, there is a question that has puzzled the crew. This question is how to design Ao Lei Yilan's armor style? The costume designers of the
crew gave many plans based on historical materials in the Qing Dynasty, but the director still felt dissatisfied. As the saying goes, "it is better to see a hundred times," instead of working behind closed doors based on historical records, it is better to go to the Forbidden City to see.
Early the next morning, the director brought two crew members to the Forbidden City. Many armors from the Qing Dynasty were displayed in the Forbidden City. As a result, the director was chosen by him and he got a special "lacquer pocket". "A", I think this armor has unique ornamental properties. They took a camera to take a full-scale picture of the "lacquer armor", and then made relevant notes before returning to the crew. After
"Ao Lei Yi Lan" was released, it won unanimous praise from the audience, and many people even shed tears for the heroine's heroic deeds. But after watching the movie, some Qing history experts couldn't sit still. They reported a problem to the crew. They pointed out that the armor of Ao Lei Yilan was not the style of the Qing Dynasty, but an "nondescript" armor. How could this armor be "nondescript"?
Originally, when the director of "Ao Lei Yi Lan" went to the Forbidden City, the armor recorded was not the Qing Dynasty armor, but the Ryukyu armor. But why did the Ryukyu armor appear in the Forbidden City? This has to start with the historical relationship between the two countries.
The relations between Ryukyu and China have a long history. In the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, 1372 AD, Ryukyu began friendly exchanges with the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty had canonized its king many times and provided a lot of assistance. The king was so grateful that he would pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year. After the fall of the Ming Dynasty, the relationship between Ryukyu and Qing also continued.
According to the "Case of the Great Qing Dynasty Conference", the tribute list of the Ryukyu Kingdom almost always has gold sabers, silver sabers, various lacquered bowls, inlaid snails, cloth, red copper, and armor. The years of the single inner armor are: the second year of Kangxi, the 22nd year of Qianlong, the 31st year of Qianlong, the 6th year of Jiaqing, the 14th year of Jiaqing and so on.
through a large number of physical proofs, in terms of style, shape and function, Ryukyu armor and Qing Dynasty armor have essential differences. What is the style of Ryukyu armor? In fact, most of the shape of Ryukyu’s armor is taken from Dongying. Dongying’s armor is mostly composed of iron, hemp rope, leather and various decorative objects. Although the defense force of the armor is not high, its shape is extremely gorgeous. People seem to have a sense of mighty domineering.
The director of the Qing Dynasty armor
film also made a lot of considerations in choosing the shape of the armor and props. First of all, the film is a visual art, and the display of props must have a visual impact in order to resonate with the audience. In other words, the armor must have bright spots, no matter how high the real protection is, it looks inconspicuous, and it will not play a role in setting off the heroine image. Therefore, the director also hit the "Ryukyu First" and made necessary improvements to it, which resulted in a so-called "nondescript" armor.
If you follow the truth of history, the armor in the movie does appear to be "full of holes", butAs far as the nature of artistic expression is concerned, it does not hurt to improve the armor into a style with a visual impact. The most important thing in the film is the feelings of the audience, and whether the armor of the Qing Dynasty in the film can be used for reference to the "Ryukyu armor" debate , Only the benevolent see benevolence, the wise see wisdom.
