Huang Gang, now the chairman of Qingdao Song and Dance Theatre Co., Ltd., has successfully created Marshal He Long. He also participated in the performance of the Shandong version of Water Margin, but at that time he was a student of Shandong Art Institute and played Gao Yanei in Lin Chong.
Huang Gang recalled that the filming of Water Margin by Shandong TV Station in the early 1980s opened the door for China TV art to go to the public, and he became attached to this classic, thanks to Mou Xia, a fellow Qingdao native who also studied at Shandong Art Institute. Mou Xia played Pan Jinlian in Zhu Yanping's Song Wu, and she recommended Huang Gang to play Gao Yanei in Lin Chong. In the online Water Margin, Mou Xia's version of Pan Jinlian's image was evaluated as a "beautiful and generous performance" by netizens, surpassing the CCTV version of Wang Siyi and the new version of Gan Ting Ting.
Of course, as a fellow of Qingdao Port, Huanggang did not live up to Mou Xia's recommendation, and he was very dedicated in filming Gao Yanei's plays. "I remember that we were filming in Weifang, filming the scene where Gao Yanei flirted with Lin Niangzi. I insisted on jumping out of the upstairs window and broke my leg, so everyone could only watch my close-up on TV later."
Gao Qiu and his son didn't meet on the set.
In the Shandong version of Water Margin, Gao Yanei's michel platini Gaoqiu is also played by an actor born in Qingdao. 20 1 1 Zhong Qianlei, an 89-year-old actor in Qingdao Theatre, recalled his role and smiled. "I remember the play. Although there are not many scenes in it, I am deeply impressed. " Zhong Qianlei said that the play was shot in Yantai, which was the hottest time in the dog days. He wore a thick official hat and a thick costume, and was soaked with sweat after a shot. Everyone quickly poured electric fans into the big sleeves in the costumes to cool him down.
At home, Zhongqian Lei still kept a letter from Liu Liu, the producer and director of the Shandong version of Water Margin, inviting him to star in Gao Qiu. At that time, he was already famous all over the country with films such as Dare to Think and Dare to Do, Herdsmen and Xi Yingmen. Although Zhong Qianlei is nearly ninety years old, he is still obsessed with the performing arts of drama. At present, I am preparing to publish my memoirs, recalling my contacts with famous directors and actors in domestic film and television circles during my 69-year artistic career.
But interestingly, Huang Gang plays Gao Yanei and Zhong Qianlei plays Gao Qiu, but the "father and son" never met each other on the set, because Huang Gang filmed Lin Chong and Zhong Qianlei filmed Song Wu.
