Exclusive dialogue ｜ "Several Romantic People" Hou Jingjian: Time span is a particularly large challenge

A 9 -year -old experience gave Hou Jingjian for the first time with film and television, and since then he germinated the idea of ​​being an actor. But in his childhood, he never expected that he would become Mao Zedong's special actor one day. From the 2010 "Iron Shoulder Burnom", to the major revolutionary historical TV series "Digital Characters" on the major revolutionary historical theme on Jiangsu Satellite TV, Hou Jingjian has played Mao Zedong 13 times before and after. A few days ago, Hou Jingjian accepted an exclusive interview with Jiangsu Satellite TV and talked behind the scenes of filming "Digital Characters".

The pressure on "Digital Romantic People" is under great pressure

Time span is a challenge

In many film and television dramas such as "Iron Shoulder", "Autumn Harvest Uprising" and "Awakening Age", Hou Jingjian has performed well on Mao Zedong's image. Although it is already the most recognized Mao Zedong actor among the post -85 actors, Hou Jingjian also said that the shooting of "Division Person" puts him under great pressure. "Such a long time span is performed by me alone. It is a particularly big challenge. "

Although the "high score answer sheet" has been surrendered several times, Hou Jingjian will inevitably be a little nervous every time Hou Jingjian receives a new script. "When shaping such characters, it is not like playing other characters. Other roles, we can all find observations on ourselves, there will be a natural side, and there will be a more sense Go to find the character prototype and try to fit the real character itself. "Hou Jingjian said.

In the play, in addition to the vivid restoration of Mao Zedong's great contribution to the Chinese revolution, he also presented the moment of getting along with his family with a very delicate pen. He will feel guilty when his brother and sister informed the dilemma in the family, and encouraged them to "give up the little family, go out for everyone, go out, and revolution." It is always light and light, and the phrase "I still want to eat with this big bowl" instantly resolved the sad atmosphere of the parting, and also made the most sincere agreement here; it will also temporarily put everything in front of the children and accompany them. With his son catching fish, experience the fun of the countryside, and be a simple father. Such a living Mao Zedong is almost rare in the same type of TV series.

Because of this, Hou Jingjian did not even know how to "work" in the first contact with this drama. "I am too young, my life experience is not enough, and I am too far away from Chairman Mao." Hou Jingjian sighed.

Resonate with the role

Grasp the character mood at different stages

For Hou Jingjian, the biggest difficulty and challenge of shooting "The Romantic Person" is the long time span. From the beginning of the "May 4th Movement" in 1919, the play has been talked about along the context of history to the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. Mao Zedong at different stages of this 30 years was completed by Hou Jingjian.

"Through these years of creation, Hou Jingjian's understanding of Chairman Mao has become more and more deeper. In his opinion, Mao Zedong in his youth was full of motivation and the process of exploring the road of saving the country was actually the process of his own growth. It is more mature and good at summarizing, summarizing, reflection and adjustment. Mao Zedong in the old age will be more tough and more transparent.

During the performance, Hou Jingjian chose the changes in voice tone and body movement to interpret the changes in the mood of the characters at different stages. "For example, the tone of the youth will be higher, and when the middle -aged and elderly age will deliberately press down the sound. There is also a walking posture and look, and there will be some changes." In his opinion, only there will The character image is more vivid, plump, and three -dimensional to show Mao Zedong's ideological change process, and it can also interpret the greatness of the great man.

In July, wearing a cotton jacket to shoot

"That strength is right"

Based on the creative principles of "loyalty to history and real restoration", a large number of real scenes are restored in "Digital Characters", and the amount of scenery is three times that of ordinary TV series. This real era texture not only touched the audience, but also brought great shock to the heart of the actor.

In the interview, Hou Jingjian recalled a drama of the Red Army Long March Climbing Snow Mountain. The shooting of that scene was in July. The summer of Hengdian was unbearable, but the actors needed to wear a thick cotton jacket, wrapped in three layers and three layers inside. "And when the shooting was at noon, after the shooting included me, several people were about to heat up of the heat stroke. Everyone persisted, and that energy was right." Hou Jingjian said that the entire crew was through the shooting process. A spirit of energy, "The heart is really encouraged by the revolutionary ancestors."

Speaking of the experience of playing Mao Zedong over the years, in Hou Jingjian's words, he also made him a better self. "I have encountered a lot of setbacks all the way, and there are also confusion. But now I look back, I feel that I have become more firm, optimistic, and full of positive energy. I think this is the deep impact that Chairman Mao brings to me. "As a post -85s, Hou Jingjian also practiced his original intention and mission step by step." Although it may not be able to achieve much results, as a young man in the new era, he must work hard in his job post. To contribute your own power. "At 19:30, every night, it locks in Jiangsu Satellite TV and fresh milk happy theater" Digital Characters ".
