"Where is the monarch of the Qing Dynasty , you should be king, win the hearts of the people, train your troops and horses, and never build the Great Wall ."
When 's Kangxi , played by Chen Daoming, said this domineering line on the Great Wall, he was not angry. Wei's expression instantly captured the hearts of the audience.
A " Kangxi Dynasty " became his masterpiece, which earned him the 20th Golden Eagle Award 's most popular actor nomination in 2002.
Coincidentally, just three years ago, at the same Golden Eagle Awards Gala, Jiao Huang also won the best male supporting role for the role of Kangxi.
The same Kangxi, different actors, who is the best one? Let's have a good chat today.
【1】
Jiao Huang, national first-class actor .
was born in Beijing in 1936. Like many people in that era, escaping everywhere became the main theme of life. Later, he finally settled in Shanghai. Influenced by the surrounding environment, Jiao Huang gradually became interested in performing.
In 1955, Jiao Huang disregarded his father's objection and was admitted to Shanghai Theater Academy's performance department , while Chen Daoming was still in his infancy.
Later, as he grew older, Chen Daoming dreamed of being a translator for .
Unexpectedly, fate played a joke on him. When Tianjin People's Art Theater went to school to recruit students, Chen Daoming had no interest, but friends around him forced him to the recruiting scene. Renyi learned to perform .
During college, Jiao Huang was fortunate to meet Lepkovskaya, the excellent drama tutor from the Soviet Union, although only two years old, but he laid a solid foundation for his future stage performances, and also Before graduating, he has already made his mark on the stage of movies and dramas.
Later, due to historical reasons, he was forced to leave the stage he loved. He was tortured in those hard years, and even his lover parted ways with him for fear of being implicated.
, a young man who loves the drama career, was pressed to the ground by fate and rubbed against him. If it wasn't for his kind mother who came to accompany him from Beijing, I'm afraid he would have lost the courage to live.
Fortunately, there is no such thing as a miracle. In 1975, Jiao Huang and finally got the chance to return to the stage, this time he played a spy in an educational film.
With the development of the film and television industry in the following years, Jiao Huang had more opportunities to perform on stage. He has participated in many films and plays. In 1987, he finally relied on the wonderful performance in the TV series "Engineers" , Won the 8th TV Drama Feitian Award for Best Supporting Actor Award , the teenager who was obsessed with acting after half his life finally made his name in the film and television circle.
In this period, Chen Daoming first worked in Tianjin Renyi, but unfortunately almost no outstanding works came out, but his calm career did not affect his intoxicating love. By chance, he met Du Xian, the lover of his life, in order to be able to be with this beautiful Intellectual women stick together for a long time, and Chen Daoming resolutely took the advanced course of the Central Academy of Drama.
Since then, Chen Daoming has been on the road of film and television performance all the way forward.
In the second year after Jiao Huang won the Feitian Award for Best Supporting Actor, Chen Daoming played the role of "The Last Emperor" Puyi , in one fell swoop the seventh "Public TV".He won the "Golden Eagle Award" Best Actor Award and the 9th National TV "Flying Award" Outstanding Actor Award.

Of course, what really made Jiao Huang reach the peak of art was Kangxi who played in the TV series " Yongzheng Dynasty " in 1999. Some people gave this evaluation to his performance in the play: It is ingenious and unsophisticated, simple and unsophisticated, superb, peaking, and there is no trace of performance.
The audience seems to really travel through time and space, immersive. With the hot screen of TV series, 63-year-old Jiao Huang has become a hot star in a blink of an eye. In him, we finally know what a late bloomer is.
Jiao Huang's success seems to be full of chance on the surface, but in fact it is an inevitable result .
Every successful person in business has gone through thousands of hardships. Out of his love for acting, Jiao Huang devoted himself to his acting skills even in the years when he was forced to leave the stage.
In his opinion, acting is a pursuit of art, not a tool to gain fame and fortune. When more people pursue material wealth, Jiao Huang is content with poverty on the stage of drama. For him, drama is his favorite.
Several years later, facing the host's question, Jiao Huang expressed his opinion: I am against others putting me in the entertainment industry. I belong to the drama industry and a dramatist.
's pursuit of art has caused Jiao Huang to lose fame and fortune many times. In his opinion, the drama is bigger than the sky. Without a good script, everything can be discussed.
At that time, the "Yongzheng Dynasty" crew had intended to invite him to play the role of Kangxi, but he was rejected by Jiao Huang as soon as he opened his mouth, but after reading the script, he was immediately moved by this role, and he had foreseen the brilliance of this play The prospect, so he found the crew and took over the role of Kangxi.
Facts have proved that Jiao Huang's vision is very unique, this work has completely reached a new height of historical drama in ancient costumes, and became the biggest winner of that year's Golden Eagle Award.
Although Mr. Jiao has always been reluctant to recognize the name of Nanjiao Beiyu, this does not prevent people from affirming the old man.
has been immersed in the theatre stage for many years, how could the Prince of Shakespeare have gained a false reputation. If you don't believe me, look at the Kangxi he played, his forbearance and outburst when he elected the prince, and his entrustment and reluctance to the follow-up prince when he was dying. The two roles of emperor and father are vividly interpreted.

Kant once said: "There are only two things in the world that can shake my heart, one is the vast starry sky above my head, and the other is the lofty moral code in people's hearts".
Acting is the same as being a person, in fact, there are standards. The same goes for
Daoming Chen.
Over the years, he has always been strict with himself, and can be regarded as a clear stream in the entertainment industry. With a lofty and arrogant character unique to a literati, he has won the respect of everyone.
In the words of Feng Xiaogang : "He is a man who is only willing to bow his head in the play" .
has been in the arts so far, people have only seen the classic images created by him, and rarely heard other rumors that provoke bees and butterflies.
There was a video circulating on the Internet. Feng Xiaogang was having a party with a group of friends. When the wine was hot, Director Feng asked the star of "Youth" Miao Miao to dance for everyone, which made Miao Miao in a long dress and high heels. A little embarrassed, Chen Daoming saw Miao Miao's dilemma, and took the initiative to speak out, facing the people next to him.Continuing to boo, Chen Daoming directly scolded the country. After the
incident broke out, the comments of netizens also showed a one-sided trend, and everyone praised Chen Daoming with his true temperament.
Chen Daoming played the role of Fang Hongjian in " Besieged City ". In order to be closer to the original work, Chen Daoming , who is serious and serious, visited Qian Zhongshu many times.
Mr. Qian's house has almost no modern electrical appliances. Except for a pot for decoction, the rest is full of books. In front of such a scholar as Mr. Qian, Chen Daoming felt his shallowness. He later recalled the experience of visiting Mr. Qian in the talk show. , said the famous sentence: In front of literate people, in front of knowledge, I feel that I am not a bullshit.
It was only from Mr. Qian that he really understood what it means to be "poetic and literary" , and later he began to improve himself by reading a lot. When "Kangxi Dynasty" became popular all over the country, no one knew that he almost smashed " Qing History Draft " in order to perform Kangxi.
succeeded because of his concentration. There is a clip of Kangxi scolding corrupt officials in the play: "They are rotten, my heart is going to be broken!" This line of was not originally in the script. It was added on a temporary basis, but it did not violate the whole plot. It is said that the staff at the scene applauded for this magic stroke.

In fact, it is really not easy to compare the two Kangxis. As we all know, the success of a role is inseparable from all aspects of the relationship.
first talk about the script, "Yongzheng Dynasty" is adapted from the novel of the writer Er Yuehe . The screenwriter Liu Heping can be said to be the first screenwriter in China. When the TV series was filmed, Er Yuehe was filming and changing it, which not only guaranteed The charm of the original work has allowed the development of the plot to have more room for extension.
and "Kangxi Dynasty" is also Er Yuehe's work , but the filming scene did not have the strong assist of the original author, and the screenwriter Zhu Sujin is obviously better at the creation of military themes, which has changed the original work in many ways. Therefore, "Kangxi Dynasty" lacks the artistry and authenticity of historical works.
once asked the original author's impression of the film, and Er Yuehe said astonishingly "nothing to say", just four words, which seemed to show his dissatisfaction with the work.
According to the usual practice, the theme songs in film and television dramas are often a bonus item of the work, and with the popularity of these two TV dramas, the theme songs in the drama have become classics, A " who wins the hearts of the people wins the world " sings the emperor's painstaking efforts, and also sings the truth of the world. Whenever the familiar music plays, Kangxi's figure of working hard for the country emerges in front of him.
Another song " borrows another five hundred years from the sky " shows Emperor Kangxi's contempt for the world and his broad mind , how can such a golden and iron horse kill the Quartet emperor in the music not make your blood boil . The same characters, from different angles, are really indistinguishable.
returned to the role, Jiao Huang was over 60 when he played Kangxi, just in line with the age requirement of the elderly Kangxi , many years of drama stage experience, also let him show Kangxi's psychological changes and other details with ease, restrained and calm, not The anger is self-predominant, and the emperor's ingenuity is brought into full play.
What's interesting is that after watching the stills and then looking at the portrait of Kangxi left in the historical materials, the two are actually somewhat similar. It's hard to imagine such a Kangxi.
z0What's more interesting is that in the early stage of the preparation of "Kangxi Dynasty", the capital wanted Jiao Huang to play Kangxi again, but at this time, the producer Liu Dayin quit, even preferred to pay 5 million liquidated damages instead of Let Jiao Huang play.He thinks that Jiao Huang is suitable for Kangxi in "Yongzheng Dynasty", and definitely not suitable for Kangxi in "Kangxi Dynasty".
Later, after several twists and turns, Liu Dayin found Chen Daoming, but never thought of being rejected directly by him: "Director, don't make Qingzhuang dramas! Look at those Qingzhuang dramas on TV, there are many and bad, and Fengshen's "Yongzheng Dynasty" has just been released, is it a bit too stressful to shoot now?"
However, Liu Dayin did not give up and insisted on stuffing the script to Chen Daoming.
Chen Daoming was fascinated directly after reading the script.
Kangxi played by him is from youth to old age, and the time span is very large .
Although modern makeup techniques and post-processing techniques can make people younger, it is definitely not as easy as imagined for a middle-aged man in his forties to play a young man with a vigorous blood.
Fortunately, Chen Daoming's acting skills do not focus on form. With his strong shaping ability, the audience can show respect to Kangxi from respect to love. No wonder some people say that Chen Daoming plays Kangxi, and Jiao Huang is Kangxi.
Of course, there is no absolute perfection in the world, and the shortcomings of these two Kangxis are also obvious.
Kangxi, played by Jiao Huang, is more than calm but not domineering because of the role of the role.
And the Kangxi played by Chen Daoming is completely a big man. In the face of many contradictions set in the plot, he often has an idea when he turns his eyes, and overemphasizes the heroic spirit of the protagonist, which tends to make the audience distance from the character. . Some people once questioned that Chen Daoming performed too much in the play.
[Conclusion]
In fact, everyone has a Kangxi they recognize in their hearts, and their understanding of the role should be different, so why be too demanding. As long as the role can be recognized by the audience, it is good acting.
Everyone should thank the two veteran actors for their wonderful performances. It is their unremitting efforts to bring these excellent film and television works to the audience.
Yuji believes that as long as the acting is good enough, everyone will like it.
