Wang Runshen climbed to the top again.

Chang Ying is preparing a feature film Beidou, which reflects the life of folk artists in northern Shaanxi. Director Zhou Yu once served as a drama captain in the North China Military Region Cultural and Art Troupe. He had a story with Wang and learned that Wang had story-telling experience. After many inquiries, he found Wang Runshen who had been lurking in Zangang town for more than ten years and invited him to play two roles in the film:

Wang Runshen was overjoyed, packed his bags and went to Beijing to see the screenwriter Su Hu with consideration. Zhou Yu arranged a place for Wang An to read the script and related materials. After a month's rest, Wang Run came to Changchun. When old friends heard that Chang Ying invited him to film, they all said happily to him, "You should cherish this opportunity, go all out, perform your tricks well, and strive to return to the film industry." Wang Run made up his mind that he would live up to the high expectations of the director and his friends and perform the magic well. He read the script and played a farmer rapper. From makeup modeling to character temperament, it is not a problem, and there is no need to prepare. The characters in the play wanted to rap "storytelling in northern Shaanxi" (a kind of book style), but it was different from another book style he was familiar with, "Xihe Drum". Of course, the director knew the difference and sent Wang Runshen to Shaanxi to study with Han Qixiang, a famous blind storyteller in northern Shaanxi. Wang Run came to Yan 'an, found the Han family, and hummed a few words of Xihe Drum before entering the door, expressing his intention to learn from the teacher: "I was originally an artist of Xihe Drum, and I went to the Han family to learn storytelling and make movies in northern Shaanxi. I can't go back to Changchun without learning the taste. But please give me your advice, and the student Wang Runshen is polite ... "He said and saluted the teacher. Teacher Han immediately said loudly, "Stop, stop." Then he also improvised a few words of "storytelling in northern Shaanxi" and responded: "Don't mention meeting your peers. Please speak with caution. It's easy to learn to read and sing. Please sit down and enjoy your tea ... "He even said," Please sit down, please sit down! " It turns out that both of them are peers in the book industry. Wang Runshen expounded his purpose, and Mr. Han enthusiastically expressed his sincere help.

After studying in Shaanxi for a month, Mr. Han is enthusiastic about teaching. Wang Runshen not only quickly mastered the charm of "storytelling in northern Shaanxi", but also had a certain understanding of the customs of northern Shaanxi. Xie Wang visited his teacher and returned to Changchun with confidence. After getting ready, the film crew and I devoted ourselves to intense location shooting in Shaanxi.

Although Wang Runshen has left the studio for more than ten years, his every move has a simple temperament of a farmer. He plays the role of the old generation of peasants who are redundant and struggling desperately in the sufferings of the old society. He is full of hatred and has nowhere to tell. He is moody and psychopathic. When he was in pain, he asked the heaven, "God, we are not the only ones who need to give the poor a good sun and moon ..." He played a Zhao Xiang, traveled around with Danxian on his back, and publicized the Red Army with humor. When his true identity was discovered by warlord Gan Wenrong, he was shot.

The film is played by Huang and Li respectively. Due to the high level of film director, he won the excellent film award of the Ministry of Culture. This film paved the way for Wang Runshen to return to the film industry. 1979 10 Wang Run was officially transferred to Chang Ying Actors Troupe. This is a major turning point in his life.

1980, played the role of Liu Guanghou, the deputy director of the reclamation area, in "Spring meets the wind" directed by Su Li, and later played the role in "Answer You Tomorrow" directed by Wang Yabiao. After shooting several plays in succession, Wang Runshen quickly got out of the trough and found the feeling of an actor. Make his performance more calm and smooth.

Chang Ying decided to adapt the reportage "Sanmen Li Yiwen" into a movie. This novel describes the story that five party member were left out in the cold when a production team was divided into operation groups. Director Zhang Hui invited Wang Runshen to play Cai Liang, the former party secretary and current party secretary. Someone heard that Wang Runshen was going to play an outdated and unpopular old party member, and kindly reminded him, "If you think it over, don't make any mistakes ..." At that time, many people were worried about this "cutting-edge" film. After careful consideration, Wang felt that his personality was not bad. If the director dares to shoot, he readily agrees.

After the crew members were concentrated, the film crew went to Su Mi ditch, a mountain city in huadian city, Jilin Province. Wang He plays Du Defu, the current party branch secretary, and other four people sleep on the kang in their hometown. Before shooting, he found that Defudu walked "off-course" and sometimes his body would shake, so he asked Du, "Is it uncomfortable to walk off?" Du doesn't care. And said: "I am an old Dongying native and want to make the last play for Chang Ying." At first, I took one or two shots: Wang and Du met on the way to collect dung. Du was exhausted and came back to steal and said, "I'm afraid my dream can't come true." Do it. " One day, Du suddenly fainted and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment. He died later. The film crew had to change actors. This is a bad start.

In the next shoot, Wang Runshen's performance is also handy. His picks and shovels, his manners and manners are very similar to those of farmers in the northeast. He used to do a lot of work for the revolution, but now he has a good life. He wants to be a socialist's grandfather, Cai Liang, and he feels very comfortable. Indifferent to work and the masses. The temperament of the characters and the tone of the play are very accurate. However, the next shooting was a continuation of the "story": one day, filming was done in a village more than 0/0 kilometers away from the residence, and it was already late at night after filming, and the whole group took a big air-conditioned car back to their residence. People feel sleepy and suddenly turn over-the car turned into a ditch. Everyone climbed out of the window, but fortunately no one was hurt. Everyone tried their best to turn the car over and drag it out for an hour or two, but it didn't help. Later, he proposed to borrow a "Parthenocissus" tractor from a nearby forest farm, and finally pulled it up from the ditch. At this time, it was almost dawn. Coincidentally, once because the driver of the generator car drank too much, he drove his car into a ditch on his way back. Wang Runshen and other actors have just arrived at their residence and have not taken off their makeup. Regardless of Rong's fatigue, they returned to the scene of the accident and left the cart for another two hours. When filming a large crowd scene where the production team was meeting and the operation team was divided, the room was crowded with people, and a string of dried corn and red pepper hung under the eaves. Liang, played by you, was about to speak when a bunch of dried corn suddenly fell and hit another actor's head. Fortunately, he didn't break his head, and the crowd was in a false alarm. After the silence, Cai Liang's speech was remake. It was at this group meeting that he and four other party member were snubbed by the masses, which made him wake up from the embarrassment of consternation and cheer up again. Regardless of his old age and infirmity, he competed with young people to dig dung, care for the masses, and send water to them. He regained the trust of the masses with his own actions and restored party member's own image. It strongly reflects not only the need to correct and restore the party style in rural areas. It also proves that our party has the ability to overcome its own shortcomings and lead the masses forward.

The artistic image of Cai Liang created by Wang Runshen is the most brilliant artistic image he created after his return to the film industry. He successfully created this image because he has many years of artistic practical experience and profound artistic foundation, and it is also closely related to his long-term life in the countryside. He doesn't have to learn rural work now, but he does it like a farmer. Therefore, his performance is simple, true and infectious. Director Zhang Hui has lived in the northeast countryside for a long time and is familiar with all kinds of characters in the northeast countryside. After watching the movie, people seem to touch the cold of the snowy days in the north, smell the fragrance of the northeast soil, and choke the pungent smell of Kanto smoke.

This film is full of life and strong appreciation. Because the film raised extremely sharp questions at that time, some people worried that the film would "leak" and it was said that some people would write critical articles. However, before the film was submitted for trial, it attracted the attention of the Ministry of Culture and central leading comrades. Hu Qiaomu, Secretary of the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee and Minister of Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China, reviewed the film in Changchun, and gave high praise and warm praise. He thought it was a good film, "which can be used as a teaching material for Party consolidation" and "shown in rural areas throughout the country". And personally wrote to director Zhang Hui, and made important amendments to the film.

The revised film was shown in the whole country, which caused a strong response. People's Daily, Wen Wei Po, popular movies and other newspapers all held forums and published extensive comments. 1984 The film won the Excellent Film Award of the Ministry of Culture, the 4th Golden Rooster Award and the 7th Hundred Flowers Award Best Feature Film Award. That year, at the Golden Rooster Awards Conference, when Wang Run excitedly took the trophy to the stage, the old friends of Bayi Factory were happy for him and shouted: "Wang Runshen, hold the trophy higher!"

Wang Runshen, who has only returned to the film industry for five years, has climbed to new heights step by step with her own personal efforts. This is very valuable. It's really accumulated over time, a lot of work. This can be regarded as the last saddle peak of Wang Runshen's destiny saddle.
