Looking for the answer:1Taiwanese drama masters in the 1970s.

Xu Bule, whose real name is Ye Tiexiong, was born in Hsinchu on February 22nd, 195 1. Adopted by the circus since childhood, he followed his stepfather Ye Qingjiang to run around the dock, learning magic, juggling and ventriloquism. In the 1970s, "Little Bole" was used as a stage name for the first time, and became famous in the troupe, making its mark in the variety show "Rainbow" of CTV. 1977 was quoted as a stage name for playing Xu He in the Tower of Leifeng. He has successively performed films such as Success in the Ridge and Strange Boxing to Attract the Lord. 1980 The Clown, a film co-directed by Zhu Yanping, became an instant hit on [1979] and became a well-known comedy star in the 1980s. * * * has made 58 films and directed and starred in the film "Eggs Hit Stones". Xu Bule's performance style combines the magician's flexible skill, the clown's ridiculous expression and the tramp's mixed feelings of sadness and joy, creating a tragicomedy style with unique appeal, and he is a rare talented actor. Unfortunately, he overshot at the height of his popularity and often injected stimulants to maintain his strength. 1985 The Baby Family and The Clown and Swan (directed by Zhu Yanping) are his last works. 1July 3, 985, died of heart failure due to cerebral palsy at the age of 34. Xu Bule's performance is for performance, not for show. He said, "I have to make a face before I take my last breath, and then I will lie down." This sentence can make us understand a lot of life truths.

Interview with Director Zhu Yanping

Zhu Yanping was the best-selling film director in Taiwan Province in 1980s and 1990s. It is also an important promoter of Xu Bule's series of films. He is good at dealing with comedies. So far, he has made more than 100 movies, and he is still trying various themes, including funny farce of little people, military education films, female action films, children's kung fu comedies, literary tragedies and so on. "Xu Bule teaches me comedy"-director Zhu Yanping said, "I only told him the general plot of this scene. He said," Director, I played three situations, so you can choose one. As a result, I think all three are very good. "In Zhu Yanping's view, Xu Bule was a born comedian and mysterious figure." He just sat on the side of the road with no expression on his face. Everyone will smile while covering their mouths when they see it. "Ha ha, look at Xu Bule! 』」?

The Clown (1980) is the first film directed by Zhu Yanping. At first, he wanted to be a star in Xu Guanying or Samuel Hui, but he had to give it up because the price was too high. At that time, Xu Bule had become popular in some TV variety shows. He was introduced to Zhu Yanping. When Zhu Yanping heard the word "Xu Bule", he felt very corny. How can a comedy with endless "bitterness" (homophonic in Minnan) become popular? "I didn't expect Xu Bule's unique style to bring a lot of inspiration to Zhu Yanping, including a black-and-white silent picture at the beginning of the film, and the clown quietly put on makeup, which still makes Zhu Yanping relish! The film was an unexpected success, and Xu Bule and Zhu Yanping became popular comedy partners. In the second year, they started filming the second film "Big Man", and started a series of cooperation in more than a dozen plays in the future, including the perfect match with Benben, and a lot of Red Army Corps and Mini Attack Team by Dakas. Zhu Yanping felt that Xu Bule seemed to be acting all the time. For example, once, he made an appointment with a friend at the Fortune Hotel to introduce a young couple to Xu Bule. Xu Bule saw someone and said nothing, so he bent down to kiss the lady's hand. The other person was startled. It turned out that he just wanted to kiss his outstretched hand. For another example, he always describes his childhood, but every time he says it differently. Zhu Yanping recalled that Xu Bule said that when he was a child, he was kept in a cage and raised as a monster, but he always managed to escape from the cage, and then he began to learn magic from his uncle. Perhaps because he grew up in a circus, he is an orphan who doesn't know where he came from! So he always uses his imagination to piece together his childhood. Xu Bule, like their first cooperative drama The Clown, brings joy to others and keeps sadness to himself. His comedy is actually a tragicomedy. In the explosion of exaggerated cartoons, it reveals a kind of sadness of humble little people, but in the humble, it has a kind and tragic humanity. This real power transmitted through the screen touched countless audiences in Taiwan Province Province who had just experienced the economic take-off at that time and still remembered the bitter days. Xu Bule is too kind to manage himself. He became popular too suddenly and made money too quickly. At that time, the price of his performance was 300,000 pounds, and only Feng Feifei was as high as his market price. So he bought yachts and Harley motorcycles one after another to play. He was exhausted at work and relied on stimulants to maintain himself, so he became addicted to drugs. Later, he went to major hospitals to take more than 100 doses of painkillers every month, relying on morphine in painkillers to quit addiction. Originally nicknamed "Iron Bull", it collapsed in just one or two years. His last film with Zhu Yanping was The Clown and the Swan by 1985, which was also his last film. When filming, he seemed to have a premonition about his death. Often when he cried, he really cried with Zhu Yanping in his arms and begged him to help take care of his little daughter, who was only two or three years old. Later, according to his last wish, Director Zhu gave a pension of 20 million yuan to his youngest daughter's mother. At that time, his cohabiting girlfriend (he said with some regret ...) ignored the two sons and one daughter left by his two ex-wives.

Interview the producer in Li Baotang.

Li Baotang is a filmmaker with a considerable annual output. He acted as an actor in Taiwan Province's film era, and played such plays as Unforgettable Fengqiao in Hsinchu, and began to try directing in the 1970s. Later, he made a series of social realism films such as "Women Sharpen and Chop Wood Workers by mistake", which created a wave of social realism films in Taiwan Province Province. At that time, the annual output of the film was huge, and the film had not yet started shooting. As long as the title and card company are written, the publisher's funds will be automatically delivered to the door. Until recently, he still produced a large number of Hong Kong gangster films and distributed them to Southeast Asia, the United States and Canada. Li Baotang recalled that Xu Bule's real name was Ye Tiexiong. When I was a child, I was adopted by the circus, became a magician under the training of Da Bole, and walked the rivers and lakes under the stage name of Xiao Bole. Later, he made his mark in Feng Feifei's variety show Rainbow. He played buddhist nun next to Xu Xian in the TV series "Tower of Leifeng", called "Xu Bule", and everyone got used to it and became his stage name. When Li Baotang met Xu Bule, he had just finished filming the first film "Success Ridge" directed by Wu Peicheng. Li Baotang appreciated the agility and talent of young Xu Bule, so he was asked to play his own investment in The Strange Boxing Master. At that time, Cai (the boss of Xiucai Film Company) was still a fledgling person who had just left his boss to start his own business. Because the investment in this drama became popular, it laid the groundwork for the future. Although young Xu Bule hasn't started his drama yet, he has many girlfriends and often takes turns living in different people's houses. It's hard to find him. Once, Li Baotang had to lie on the floor in front of a girlfriend's house, waiting for him to start shooting on time. At that time, Xu Bule was in good health and he was easy to get along with. After filming on the set, he will enthusiastically teach the actors opposite to act, and even help the director watch it. But later, Xu Bule became very popular, but people became more and more unhappy. At that time, the underworld prevailed and the performance was tied. There is always a gambling game backstage. Xu Bule, who loves gambling, owes a lot of debts and has to take on more and more plays. For a time, he lived in the Chiyo Hotel in Ximending. Li Baotang went to see him and found that he lived a miserable life. He is in poor health, relying on morphine in painkillers, and his drug addiction is getting heavier and heavier. When he has an attack, he wants his wife to help him inject, but he can't find a place to insert the needle all over his body.
