The role of "Chou-heung" has made Gong Li, who has been acting in art films, more complete, and made her known to more ordinary audiences, and her popularity soared.
The beauty of Gong Li can't be ignored, giving people a pure and elegant feeling. Therefore, this work not only satisfies Gong Li, but also gives Gong the opportunity to challenge himself.
Joey Wong is Chou-heung's original candidate. Every movie is a beautiful actress, such as "Tong Pak Hu Dian Qiu Xiang". At first glance, this Chou-heung is not very amazing, but when we see the green leaves, it looks like a fairy. However, speaking of it, Chou-heung's original role is not Gong Li, but fascinating Joey Wong.
At that time, Joey Wong was a national goddess with different temperament and appearance. At that time, Joey Wong had become an instant hit with Ghost Story, and the role of Xiao Gan was also deeply rooted in people's hearts. After this movie, she made some hot movies, such as Fairy in the Painting, City Hunter and God of Gambling, and became one of the hottest actresses at that time.
All kinds of works have appeared, including comedies, so Stephen Chow wanted her to play the role at that time.
When Stephen Chow refused to shoot "Smelly Lane in Tang Bohu" because of his low salary, it was a pity that Joey Wong was invited to cooperate. At that time, Joey Wong couldn't arrange the schedule, and it was said that he also offered sky-high wages. In this case, let them not cooperate. Gong Li's performance of Chou-heung was this unexpected achievement.
At that time, it was the peak of Joey Wong's acting career, and his influence, fame and popularity did not lag behind Maggie Cheung and Brigitte Lin, so the schedule was also very full, which led to Joey Wong missing the role of Chou-heung.
After watching Joey Wong's comedy performance in Dongcheng Xi Wine, many people were amazed at her clever and fresh comedy performance.
Although Joey Wong is beautiful, she is very good at acting in funny movies. Joey Wong's outstanding performance can be seen in many comedies. Therefore, if Chou-heung lets Joey Wong play, it is really worth looking forward to.
Unexpected Achievements Gong Li After that, someone recommended Gong Li to them. Gong Li was spotted by Zhang Yimou when he was in college from 65438 to 0987 and starred in the first film Red Sorghum.
The film received rave reviews as soon as it was released, and won the Golden Bear Award, China Golden Rooster Award for Best Feature Film and Hundred Flowers Award Award for Best Feature Film at the Berlin International Film Festival. Gong Li has also become a hot actress in China. Later, she and Zhang Yimou collaborated on Ju Dou, Qiu Ju Tale and Hang the Red Lantern High.
Although Gong Li has won many international awards for these films, they are all art films, which are not as famous as Stephen Chow and Joey Wong and Brigitte Lin.
After receiving the invitation, Gong Li agreed, but Gong Li couldn't let go of her figure, like some ugly pictures, and couldn't do it at all. Just like the picture with the hair standing on end, Mrs. Hua and the desperate scholar kicked her a few feet and turned her into a fat man. The play was still played by body double, so she didn't have much comedy talent.
At that time, she also called Zhang Yimou for help, how to find her own balance in such a movie, which seemed different from her own acting skills.
This leads to the fact that after the film came out, among many actors, others were spoofing the nonsense performance, and only Gong Li was out of place, but Stephen Chow expressed his satisfaction. What he wants is this contrast, which can further increase the comedy effect.
Conclusion Although Gong Li won the title of "Gong Huang" and has numerous classic roles, "Chou-heung" was still chosen as the most amazing role by many audiences. It can only be said that when Joey Wong refused to play, Gong Li got another role that no one could surpass.
No matter who the original work of Chou-heung is, it will eventually bring you a classic. It's interesting to watch it again today.
With this play, it can be said that it is a big turning point for Gong. Since the release of Tang Bohu, Gong Li's acting career has been steadily rising. Speaking of it, this drama can really be called a stepping stone to Gong Li's career.
