Zhai WanChen

essential information

Personal experience

Drama stage

In May 1971, Zhai WanChen was hoeing soybeans in Heilongjiang under the sun. He had been busy here before dawn. At noon, the company commander told him that he didn't have to come in the afternoon. He went to the battalion. After I went there, I found out that the General Administration drama troupe had come to recruit students. Although Zhai WanChen has written and performed some small programs before, it is the first time he has faced such a serious situation. The teacher first asked him to sing a song, then asked him to do a performance. At that time, Zhai WanChen was in the class of horse number, so his teacher asked him to perform driving carriage. Zhai WanChen couldn't perform and said, "driving carriage is just sitting with a whip." Later, he performed a phone call play, in which he wanted to show what the other party was saying. The teachers seemed very satisfied, but they didn't make a statement at that time. They only told him to pay attention to safety and wait for notice. At the beginning, everyone told him that there was a lot of hope, and he also began to think about it in his heart. But after a long time, he forgot to drive the carriage and hoe the soybeans. He had been waiting for three months. One day, when he came back, he saw that all the people in the horse number class were waiting for him, and they all stared at him during the meal. He felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. Someone said to him, "don't you know? The military affairs unit of the regiment is coming. I want to transfer you away! " Zhai WanChen went to the troupe and asked clearly that he had been accepted by the general political drama troupe. He also clearly remembered that the transfer order at that time said "Propaganda Department of the General Political Department of the Chinese people's Liberation Army". After saying goodbye to his comrades in arms and fellow countrymen, he began a new life.

After three years of study in the student class of the general political drama troupe, he stayed in the general political drama troupe. In 1974, Zhai WanChen began to go on the stage when he was rehearsing "thousands of rivers and thousands of mountains". Up to now, he has played dozens of plays, mainly including "a white cloud floating in the blue sky", "iceberg love", "strong wind impact", "baptism" and "yellow ballad". Most of the plays are based on military themes, which are closely related to military life.

Shooting experience

When it comes to shaping the image of soldiers, Zhai WanChen first affirmed his familiarity with military life and the deep emotion generated by this familiarity. He once went to the most difficult place in the frontier of the motherland to experience life, and witnessed the youth and blood of the frontier soldiers in order to defend their country. Zhai WanChen, who was in the middle of it, was full of emotion. He said: "how can these lovely soldiers arouse the creative enthusiasm of an actor? When I came to the frontier, I also integrated into the frontier life. My emotion is so close to that of the soldiers, and there is a kind of motivation to promote me to express them. "

"Triumph in midnight" is an unforgettable TV play by Zhai WanChen. At the time of filming, the Sino Vietnamese war was going on. It was necessary to shoot the scene of shelling in the TV series, but under the circumstances at that time, it was impossible to shoot it alone. The front-line headquarters let them go to the battlefield in person, and according to the deployment of the military plan, they shot the camera when they fired at the enemy. At this time, it is difficult to distinguish between filming and fighting, but love for the motherland and the people has been the strongest and most sincere outbreak here. Therefore, the whole performance was truly moving and touched countless audiences.

Zhai WanChen went to the army for an interview in order to shoot this TV play, and he was at the front line at that time. The troops are stationed in a large karst cave. A horizontal bridge is set up in the knee free water. Walking on the horizontal bridge is the camp. The troops live in a cold and humid environment. When Zhai WanChen went, they were doing pre war mobilization, a regiment with a glorious history. The regiment leader said to the soldiers, "our regiment has made brilliant achievements during the Anti Japanese war. During the war of liberation, many soldiers were sacrificed. Our regiment also made great contributions in resisting US aggression and aiding Korea. Now it's our turn. It's up to me and all of you here to write the final version of this history. We are going to the front line soon. I know that you are very young. You may be afraid in your heart. I don't blame you at all. If you are really afraid, I will demobilize you now. I don't blame you because you are too young. " After that, there was silence. He waited for a long time, and no one raised his hand. He continued: "since no one raised his hand, it shows that everyone is willing to go to the front line. From now on, I hope everyone can add brilliance to our regiment together!" Many years later, Zhai WanChen still remembers the scene at that time. Later, when he was filming, the scene often came to his mind. When he was nervous and intense, he would yell at him. Some people said that it had a bad effect, but the director insisted on keeping the shot. As a result, the role of Yang Yongxia played by Zhai WanChen was most praised, and this success was the result of Zhai WanChen's most simple emotion.

Zhai WanChen said: "it is the army life that has cultivated me from not being able to act to being able to make some achievements now." As an actor of the General Administration drama company, he has many opportunities to perform or experience life in various army units. He is very familiar with the military life in various environments, and can accurately grasp their emotions. Therefore, when acting, he only needs to show the emotion he feels at this moment, which is the emotion that a soldier should have, and the temperament that permeates his whole body is the temperament that a soldier should have. Therefore, he performed the image of a soldier skillfully and vividly.

Baptism of performing arts

In 1999, the drama baptism was launched by the General Administration drama company. Baptism tells the story of a family of three generations of soldiers in the summer of 1998. It reflects the correct choice and selfless contribution made by the Contemporary Soldiers in the magnificent fight against the flood in 1998 in the face of the test of personal future and national needs, personal safety and people's interests. It fully shows the spiritual world of the Contemporary Soldiers and enthusiastically eulogizes the great spirit of fighting the flood. The drama shows the baptism of the Contemporary Soldiers in the fight against the flood. For Zhai WanChen, one of the leading actors, he was baptized in the way of performance.

In the rehearsal of the drama, the director asked the actors to relax completely and reflect the most natural side of life. They said it quietly in life and on the stage. In life, several people vied with each other and expressed it in the same way on the stage. There was no need to worry that the audience could not hear or hear it clearly, because this was the most real side of life. The performance of zongzhenghua theater used to be called "roar school", which means that the voice is raised very high, but this time after completely relaxing, the performance has achieved better results. The drama has been well received and won many awards such as "five one project" award and "Wenhua Award".

In this performance, Zhai WanChen realized that his performance could be more comfortable and closer to the performance state he was pursuing. After the play, Zhai WanChen's performance achieved a new breakthrough, closer to life, and promoted to a higher level.
