In the fifties and sixties, who hadn't watched "Heroes' Children", whenever they mentioned it, they always burst into tears and were excited.
I said that "Heroes' Children" is the best war film since the founding of New China, and no one should object.
In the film, Wang Cheng's "Shoot at me!".And Wang Fang's "Why the battle flag is so picturesque, is because the blood of heroes stained it red", every sentence and every picture are deeply imprinted in my mind and vividly.
And the image in "Children of Heroes" has even influenced several generations, and until now, it is still unforgettable to mention it again.
As the saying goes, the battle flag is like blood, and youth is like poetry.
Especially Liu Shangxian, the actor of Wang Fang in the play, was the dream lover in the hearts of many young men at that time.
But after this film, the audience never saw her on the screen again, what happened in this?
Now that so much time has passed, how is Liu Shangxian's life?
In December 1941, Liu Shangxian was born in ShanghaiThe family is all intellectuals, his father was an engineer and his mother was an intellectual. At that time, when New China had not yet been founded, it had surpassed most families.
So Liu Shangxian has had a good education since she was a child, and in addition, there are a total of 5 golden flowers in the family, all of which are daughters. And Liu Shangxian is the second in the family, with round eyes and a very cute look.
Influenced by her parents, she also wanted to become an intellectual and contribute to the country. But what was the reason why Liu Shangxian embarked on the road of acting?
In Liu Shangxian's high school year,The famous actor Tian Hua has starred in many films such as "The White-Haired Girl" and "The Party's Daughter", and was successfully selected by Bayi Factory to join the group with his outstanding performance in the film.
wanted her to play the role of Yue Xian in "The Grace of the Country", Tian Hua agreed. As the saying goes, after a person becomes popular, good characters will continue to come to the door. Wang Yang, the director of Beijing Film Studio, also found her at this time and wanted her to make a cameo role in "Storm".
At that time, Tian Hua didn't think much about it, thinking that since it was a cameo, there shouldn't be many scenes, so he also responded. The imagination is beautiful, but the reality is cruelWhen Tian Hua really experienced it, he realized that he couldn't take care of the crew on both sides at all.
Often the filming on this side has not yet been completed, and the filming on the other side has already started, but time waits for no one, and it is impossible for the entire crew to delay the filming progress because of yourselfSo the director began to look for Tian Hua's stand-in, so that he could solve the urgent need
Because it is a stand-in, you must find an actor who is more similar to Tian Hua, but you can look for it, either the figure does not match or the image is too different. Until the director came to a high school and saw Liu Shangxian.
Whether it is the face shape, appearance and figure, it is highly overlapping with Tian Hua, and he is simply the chosen person for Tian Hua's stand-in。So he privately found Liu Shangxian to discuss the matter, and when Liu Shangxian heard it, she wanted to be a stand-in for the big star Tian Hua on TV, and she was so excited.
agreed without thinking about it, and in this way, Liu Shangxian was fortunate to star in the film as Tian Hua's stand-in"The Storm".But unexpectedly, the experience of this performance completely inspired Liu Shangxian's desire to perform.
For Liu Shangxian, this shooting is a new experience, and even a bit addictive. So when she graduated from high school, she chose to study Xi acting, and was finally admitted to the acting department of Beijing Film Academy with excellent results.
I thought that when I got to university, I would have more opportunities to get in touch with actingBut until her junior year, she didn't get a formal role.
It wasn't until my senior year that life took a turn for the better. At that time, the famous director Wu Zhaoti was looking for suitable actors for the movie "Heroes' Children", which was adapted from the writer Ba Jin** "Reunion", and the gold content was still very high.
But after finding many actresses, they all felt that they were not enough to match the temperament of the character, which made him very distressed, so he told his friend Xie Jin about his troubles, and then the two looked for them together.
At that time, Xie Jin was preparing to go to Beijing Film Academy to do somethingSuddenly I saw a girl in the hallway, and my eyes lit up, isn't this the face I was looking for?, and was about to step forward to ask for the name, but the girl disappeared.
But as soon as you find a suitable role, how can you give up?So Xie Jin hurriedly called the director **, took the screenwriter to look for it in the school room, and finally found Liu Shangxian in the dormitory.
At first, Liu Shangxian was also startled, and the three big men ran to the dormitory to find him, thinking that he had caused something. When I heard that she was going to play the female number one, I was even more frightened, and I lost my confidence in an instant.
But the director is very optimistic about her, and said that let Liu Shangxian straighten her teeth, and then we will carry out the next test. In the face of this opportunity, although she was very panicked, it turned out that Liu Shangxian was a natural heroine.
At first, some people questioned the director, can such a relatively important film be handed over to a newcomer?
If it works, it will work!
After the film was released, Liu Shangxian became an instant hit with the role of "Wang Fang" and became the goddess in the hearts of countless young men at that time. Even the director said, do you know how many male fighters want to pursue you.
And Liu Shangxian also starred in this film, and after graduating from university, she successfully entered Bayi Factory.
But just when everything is moving in a good directionAn unprecedented movement changed everything, at that time China's film industry almost came to a standstill, and many actors had no scenes to film, and Liu Shangxian was no exception.
In the same situation, there is also starringDong Jintang, the actor of "Lei Feng"., the two have come to the present step by step with their own efforts, but now because of the big environmental impact, everything is back to before liberation.
At that time, the film industry was very depressedIn addition, because of the influence of the general environment, her father was treated unfairly and implicated Liu Shangxian, so everyone began to avoid her.
Until the appearance of Shen Guorui, it brought a certain vitality to her life. At that time, Shen Guorui was a recording engineer in a film studio, responsible for film processing and sound. Although others avoided Liu Shangxian, he always felt that Liu Shangxian was friendly and had no bad intentions.
Because there is no filming,Liu Shangxian is responsible for behind-the-scenes work in the crew, and Shen Guorui will help Liu Shangxian whenever he is free, and sometimes send Liu Shangxian back to the dormitory。Over time, Liu Shangxian also felt Shen Guorui's intentions, and the two came together.
Later, because Liu Shangxian was sent to work in the schoolhad to be separated from Shen Guorui for a period of time, in order to, Shen Guorui also promised Liu Shangxian that he would wait for her to come back, rest assured.
I have to say that such a good man is too rare. Even though sometimes a good friend persuaded Shen Guorui, saying that he should not give up his future for Liu Shangxian, because at that time, during Liu Shangxian's departure, Shen Guorui had a chance to be promoted, but he did not agree.
In order to stick to his promise to Liu Shangxian, and he did it, in the year Liu Shangxian came back, the two got married smoothly and gave birth to a son after marriage.
But even if she came back, Liu Shangxian still couldn't film, so she could only run errands in various crews, play scenes, and serve as a scene reporter. Sometimes when I meet my former fans, they ask: Why doesn't Liu Shangxian stop acting?
Hearing this, she didn't want to act, and explained to fans with tears that she was now working behind the scenes because of the needs of the crew.
It wasn't until 1979 that Liu Shangxian reappeared on the screen, but at this time she was no longer the little girl she was back then, which shows that under the influence of the general environment, the best time of the actor has been delayed.
Later, he could only play some small roles one after another, including "Roar!".Yellow River", "Tinder", "Miner" and many more. After that,Liu Shangxian has also tried directing and participated in some dramas, and the response is quite good.
As the saying goes, adversity sees the truth, Shen Guorui has always been by his side to support his wife. Sometimes, when his wife is in a bad state, he will ask his son to comfort his mother: Mom, my father and I miss you very much, and when we are reunited, we will pick you up together.
Seeing the letter written by her son to herself, Liu Shangxian's heart warmed, her family is so supportive of her, she can't be decadent, she must cheer up, as long as the family is together, nothing is difficult.
Nowadays,Liu Shangxian is more than 80 years old, her son has already married a family, and the husband and wife often go for a walk together, write and raise flowers in their spare time, and live a very happy life.
Liu Shangxian was lucky in that era, because she played the role of "Wang Fang", she was remembered by the world for a lifetime. At the same time, I met my lover who has been with me all my life, and now the two are still with each other in their later years, which is not a kind of happiness
I hope Liu Shangxian and his lover will live a long and healthy life and live a happy life!
