Even the director Jiang Ping can't help feeling, "There are too few people who love movies like this today. "
is the debut film of young director Xing Xiao. It tells the living conditions of the empty-nest elderly. On the one hand, Zhu Xijuan thinks of doing something for the empty-nest elderly, and on the other hand, he also thinks that he can have a movie addiction. After I arrived in Shenzhen at the age of 45, I have basically never starred in any movies. It is a rare opportunity to be able to act in movies at this age. I won the award at the age of 24, and now I want to see if I can figure out how to get another one at 80. Award (laughs)." The
movie "Big Snow Winter Solstice"
is very serious about the drama and demanding performance is Zhu Xijuan's attitude since entering the industry. In "Big Snow Winter Solstice" she is the leading player, and 110 plays have her role in 107. I filmed for more than a month regardless of remuneration and filming, and worked for more than ten hours in an unheated studio every day. In the face of high-intensity work, Zhu Xijuan also joked with Xing Xiao, “I’m in good health as an old filmmaker at this age, and others may not be able to shoot it.” Recalling at the time, she said that the entire crew was in difficult conditions, and the encounter was unprecedented. Low cost, "Now there are young people who do not take the box office as a standard and are willing to pay attention to the elderly. I am very happy. As long as someone thinks of calling their parents after watching the movie, it is worth it."
did not quarrel with that. Wu Qionghua
Zhu Xijuan was born in Ganzhou in 1938, and her family moved to Shanghai during the War of Resistance against Japan. She loved art since she was a child, and she ran through dragons in the movie "Blessing the Children" directed by Zhao Dan as early as junior high school; Shidai was a member of the school drama team. Later, she was admitted to the acting department of the Shanghai Theatre Academy. When she got the admission notice, she heard her father's cynicism. At that moment, Zhu Xijuan was determined to prove it. My father sees that the actors in the new China are different from the old society. When
was admitted to school, she was too late to enter the state of acting. She had no experience in acting. The sketches arranged for her by the teacher were basically not well done. She even wanted to retreat, so she slowly touched the performance at the order of teacher Hu Weimin. doorway. When filming "Red Detachment of Women", Zhu Xijuan was still a third-year student in the acting department. In the film, the heroine needs to have a pair of hot and hateful eyes. The director Xie Jin chose four actors for this character named Wu Qionghua. Dissatisfied, when I was wandering around on the show, I saw Zhu Xijuan playing "In a Peaceful Day" with a tall boy. At the time, the two were arguing about how to shoot the scene. After noticing these eyes, Xie Jin did not hesitate to choose Zhu Xijuan to play this role. Still remembering, Zhu Xijuan has not forgotten to tease, “If I didn’t quarrel at that time, I wouldn’t be who I am today.”
"Red Detachment of Women"
, but Xie Jin didn’t choose Zhu Xijuan just because of his eyes. “He observed me in secret for a long time. He went to school to see me in class, playing the piano, and acting in dramas. He said that I have the potential to act well, so I have ushered in the most important turning point in my life." I heard that Xie Jin chose Zhu Xijuan, and many people found it weird. I don’t know what is so good about this tomboy. "I remember to report to the movie studio.I watched at home, and they all said that the girl was not pretty and rustic. "Although not beautiful, Director Xie Jin insisted that he wanted these big eyes.
However, Xie Jin was not eager to let the actors go directly to the show, but let them go south to Qionghai, Hainan to experience the real life of the Detachment of Women. "Red Detachment of Women." "The company commander Feng Zengmin took all the actors to experience life exactly according to the schedule of the Detachment of Women. He practiced for a whole month, lectured, performed exercises, and watched the revolutionary base. All the actors’ noses were peeled off. If there were no life for this month, there would be no Zhu Xijuan said that she might not be able to play Qionghua for the first time. To this day, she sometimes remembers when she closes her eyes, the words "Long live the Chinese Soviet" are written on the mud wall.
dances with the prime minister as a motto, and the South China Special Zone does pioneering work.
Zhu Xijuan never expected that because of the movie "Red Detachment of Women", she was a little girl who became the best actress in the first popular film Hundred Flowers Awards. She knew very well that it was not her talents, but the credit of the entire crew. What is even more proud is that this film won four awards at the awards ceremony. "From death to life, the old cage, Hainan Island is full of east wind, and the hero's blood is poured in. A golden flower is extremely red." This is Guo Moruo The handwritten inscription to Zhu Xijuan, who won the best actress at the first popular film Hundred Flowers Awards. At the celebration evening of the
awards ceremony, Premier Zhou Enlai also participated in the ball. Everyone rushed to invite the Prime Minister to dance. The prime minister said, "Today, my first dance was to dance with an award-winning actress. As a result, I danced with the prime minister. I have never seen such a big scene. "Zhu Xijuan, who has always been a tomboy, always stepped on the Prime Minister's feet when dancing. Chen Yi comforted her to relax and likened dancing to a walk in music. "When dancing, Premier Zhou told me that youth is to lay the foundation. I should keep absorbing all kinds of knowledge like a sponge. I remember this sentence for a lifetime. "
, as one of the 22 big movie stars, is also the youngest one. Thinking that the 21 seniors are all from the film studio, but she is from the repertory company, Zhu Xijuan was frightened. "Later I learned that Premier Zhou said that Among the eight people listed in the Shanghai Film Studio, one person needs to quit from the Shanghai Film Studio. Teacher Liu Qiong gave up without saying a word. I am really grateful. This is the love and support of the old actors to the young actors. "After graduating from university, Zhu Xijuan joined the Shanghai Youth Repertory Theatre and became a pillar of the troupe. After the reform and opening up, she learned that Shenzhen was hiring. One was the chief of the personnel bureau and the other was a member of the preparatory team of Shenzhen TV. While watching Hong Kong TV station, thinking about competing with capitalist culture, Zhu Xijuan became motivated immediately, and went south by train without saying anything.
In September 2019, Zhu Xijuan participated in the 17th Film and Performing Arts Society Awards ("Golden Phoenix Award) Award Ceremony.
“Art is young and cannot always occupy this stage. We must leave opportunities to young people. I have been an actor for 45 years and it is time to support the construction of the special zone. After
arrived in Shenzhen, Zhu Xijuan spent two months preparing for the TV station. On January 1, 1984, Shenzhen TV station officially started broadcasting. Later, Hong Kong TV station wanted to cooperate with Shenzhen TV station, which was Zhu Xijuan’s proudest thing. “In my life, The two trips south have changed my destiny. I am very happy. Although I am 80 years old, I still want to act, because I like acting and I don't want to stop. "
