196 1 year, Ji Chunhua was born in an ordinary family in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. Children born in that era often have little to play with. Ji Chunhua likes reading martial arts novels since childhood, which has something to do with martial arts. At the age of eight, Ji Chunhua was sent to Zhejiang Wushu Team by her parents. He clearly thought that he must become a martial arts player when he grows up.
However, fate always likes to play jokes on ordinary people. 1979, 18-year-old Ji Chunhua was accidentally injured during training. Because of practicing the knife, the tip of his nose was divided into two petals. After sewing the needle, he accidentally broke his bone in training. At this point, Ji Chunhua's body began to feel unwell. High fever for several days, with the highest body temperature reaching 42 degrees.
And at that time, Ji Chunhua, like other children in Wushu teams, was used to not telling the coach every time something happened. Therefore, Ji Chunhua not only has to endure physical discomfort, but also insists on training every day. Until later, he couldn't hold on, and Ji Chunhua couldn't stand up. After Chinese medicine examination, Ji Chunhua began to drink Chinese medicine for conditioning. After drinking for a long time, Ji Chunhua's body gradually recovered. But he soon discovered how he began to lose a lot of hair, and finally even his eyebrows and eyelashes were completely lost.
Ji Chunhua began to panic. He went to see a doctor for treatment. At first, the doctor was also troubled. After repeated inspections, he just found nothing wrong. It wasn't until some communication later that I realized that Ji Chunhua used aluminum pot to cook Chinese medicine, and there was a chemical reaction between aluminum and medicinal materials, which directly led to Ji Chunhua's poisoning. Fortunately, Ji Chunhua's early warning made him stop loss in time so as not to lose his life, but the bad news is that Ji Chunhua's body can no longer grow hair. And for a young man who has just grown up, no hair and no eyebrows is comparable to disfigurement!
Since then, the feeling of inferiority has always haunted Ji Chunhua, and over time, it has also affected his daily training. More importantly, Wushu teams often have performances and competitions, although for most players, image is usually not a consideration.
However, by Ji Chunhua, his over-prominent appearance features have more or less become the focus of the leaders and coaches of the Sports Commission. Not long after, with the continuous decline of Ji Chunhua's training, the coach finally spoke and asked him to leave the Wushu team and return to his hometown.
From a promising martial arts athlete to an ordinary person in his hometown, this experience made Ji Chunhua's inferiority complex gradually develop into depression. During that time, he shut himself at home every day and didn't want to go out. Even if he wants to see someone, he always lowers his head and dares not look. Ji Chunhua also said that at that time, he was in an unspeakable dilemma. If he changes his mind a little, he may jump off a building and commit suicide. But fortunately, God never shuts one door but he opens another. After Ji Chunhua returned to his hometown, director Zhang Xinyan went to the Wushu team to select actors.
Zhang Xinyan looked around, but he was not satisfied with the height of the children in the Wushu team. At this moment, the coach of Wushu team thought of Ji Chunhua who left the team. Although Ji Chunhua is no longer in the team, the coach has always had a good relationship with him. After a while, the coach contacted Ji Chunhua and told him the details. At first, Ji Chunhua didn't take it seriously. He was influenced by negative emotions. He never thought that he would take the road of actor, but Ji Chunhua went anyway because of his friendship with the coach.
On the day of the audition, Ji Chunhua wore a hat and hid in the crowd, but director Zhang Xinyan chose him and told him to stand up and have a look. In this way, Ji Chunhua, with no hair and eyebrows, was carefully observed by the director for a long time, and finally asked his age and height, and was sent back. Two months later, Zhejiang Sports Commission received a telegram from director Zhang Xinyan, clearly indicating that Ji Chunhua would go to Henan to report and shoot the film Shaolin Temple.
1980, 19 Ji Chunhua was sent to the crew. He and Jet Li have been filming back and forth for ten months. During these ten months, Ji Chunhua first learned to ride a horse in the army, and only after riding almost did he come into contact with the crew. As we all know, Ji Chunhua's role is called "vulture". Although the director chose Ji Chunhua, the role was completely improvised, and it can even be said that the role of "vulture" was tailor-made for Ji Chunhua. But again, the disadvantage of the role of "origin" is that there is no complete character structure. At first, director Zhang Xinyan only thought that the vulture had a classic jumping posture. In order to shoot this action, the director asked Ji Chunhua to jump off the dam at Huayuankou. You know, the shooting conditions at that time were far worse than now, and many scenes required actors to go into battle in person. Therefore, Ji Chunhua must jump at least 3 meters to land on the paper covered on the ground. Otherwise, if he doesn't jump 3 meters, he will only be injured as expected.
Speaking of it, Ji Chunhua's character and mood at that time had not recovered, so Ji Chunhua did not intend to listen to the director's instructions at that time. But later, when Ji Chunhua learned that there were as many as seven other athletes from various provinces in the crew, Ji Chunhua, excited by her competitive spirit, held the idea of winning glory for the Zhejiang team and abruptly completed the task. And when he decided to be an actor, Ji Chunhua's super talent and endurance were also displayed. During the filming, Ji Chunhua not only didn't keep shouting bitterness and tiredness,
He also designed a set of talons for the role himself. In this way, with the joint efforts of Ji Chunhua and other actors Qi Xin, the film was successfully completed. When/kloc-0 was officially released in 1982, it created a box office record of1600,000 with a ticket price of 10 cent. Ji Chunhua, together with Jet Li and others, became well-known actors.
Since then, Ji Chunhua's position as an actor has been stable, and he has made films such as Shaolin Kid and North and South Shaolin.
1986, when Zhang Yimou was filming "Red Sorghum", he didn't decide a suitable actor for the role of "Three Guns with Bald Head". At this time, Zhang Yimou accidentally saw Ji Chunhua and invited Ji Chunhua to join the League. However, because of the literary film, Ji Chunhua thought that he was not suitable and directly refused.
You know, this is Zhang Yimou's private invitation, an opportunity that other actors can't wait, but Ji Chunhua completely lost face. But I also have to say that Ji Chunhua is stubborn, but Zhang Yimou is worthy of him. After being rejected many times, Zhang Yimou cocked his head and thought of director Zhang Xinyan. Finally, under the persuasion of Zhang Xinyan, Ji Chunhua agreed to shoot, which also made the classic "flower neck" in the film.
After filming this film, Ji Chunhua's thoughts have changed a lot because of the role. His role is no longer limited to villains. Subconsciously, he even wants to try a positive image like a hero. Unfortunately, Ji Chunhua, who has no hair and eyebrows, has long been stereotyped as a "bad guy" in the eyes of many directors. No director dares to set a precedent and use Ji Chunhua as a decent role.
In desperation, Ji Chunhua had to accept this cruel reality. But at the same time, Ji Chunhua also pays more and more attention to the profession of actors. Because of his martial arts skills, he began to try to design various difficult movements. Even if the character is just an ordinary death, he thinks of hundreds of different acting skills by himself.
In addition, the most rare thing for Ji Chunhua is his innate tenacity. 1993, 32-year-old Ji Chunhua co-produced the sequel to Fang Shiyu with Jet Li again. Ji Chunhua's "Yu Zhenhai" and Fang Shiyu's kung fu are equal, especially the last martial arts drama. They fought hundreds of rounds before and after, and the real swords and guns came and went, which is the best action movie in China.
But the audience watched with interest, but they didn't know the bitterness behind the actors. In order to get the most realistic effect, Ji Chunhua is exactly the same as the characters in the movie. He had to be strangled by a rope and was repeatedly hit in the chest by Jet Li.
And because it was a real fight, Ji Chunhua wore protective gear, worried about Jet Li's hand injury. Therefore, Ji Chunhua kept his strength in the many punches before and after 100, and finally, he was able to present such a perfect effect. Many viewers praised the way Ji Chunhua died in the chair.
Speaking of it, although Ji Chunhua designed the action himself, the reason why he did it was because he really broke his leg while filming. In order not to affect the shooting, Ji Chunhua simply put on a plaster splint and hurried back to the studio to continue shooting. Moreover, if a careful audience will find that in the movie, when Yu Zhenhai stepped on Fang Shiyu's face, he also used his right foot.
Perhaps in the eyes of the audience, this kind of work is only for ordinary people to return once, but for martial arts like Ji Chunhua, it is completely commonplace. Once, while filming, there was a scene of rolling down the mountain. Ji Chunhua said that and suddenly lost consciousness. After more than 30 minutes, he finally recovered. Later, when he was examined, the doctor said that he was lucky and survived. When filming Five Ancestors of New Shaolin, Ji Chunhua played "Ma Ninger". Because of this role, he has to accept special effects makeup every day.
Apply glue to your body first, then cotton, then white chemical paste, and then yellow pigment after an injection. At that time, the shooting studio in Beijing was very cold and there was no other heating equipment. Ji Chunhua could not wear more clothes because of her makeup, so she had to stand in front of the lampstand. This will make the chemicals in the paint penetrate into the skin, and it will also lead to benzene poisoning in Ji Chunhua.
When the TV series Liancheng was filmed, the set was in Xiling Snow Mountain, a place with high altitude and difficult conditions, which could be in danger at any time. I had to endure the cold weather and shoot action scenes in the snow. At that time, Ji Chunhua finished filming every day and there were more than ten hours of ice water in his shoes.
However, no matter how hard and tired, Ji Chunhua never complains. No matter where he goes to film, Ji Chun Hua is always on call. Therefore, Ji Chunhua is not only a good actor in the eyes of the audience, but also a good actor in the entertainment circle. Directors who are familiar with him also like to use him. Ji Chunhua's persistence also paid off. 20 14 Director Tian Qi plans to shoot the film "Golden Gull".
He found Ji Chunhua and heard that it was a public welfare film. He offered to star for free. This time, Ji Chunhua also played a plainclothes criminal policeman in the film, which is the only time he showed people with an absolutely decent image.
In 20 16, Ji Chunhua won the "China Action Film Contribution Award", which was his only acting award, but unexpectedly he became the last one.
On July, 2065438 1 1, Ji Chunhua died of illness in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, at the age of 57. After Ji Chunhua died, the outside world learned that he was diagnosed with advanced lung cancer in the Spring Festival that year. Ji Chunhua was filming in Beijing when he learned of his illness, but he still insisted on cooperating with the crew to finish filming, knowing that his life had come to an end. It was not until April that Ji Chunhua returned to his hometown of Hangzhou for treatment.
In the last few months of her life, Ji Chunhua left quietly with her family. After he left, some netizens turned to the photos he uploaded more than a month ago. He is in the same frame as director Tian Qi, with a bright smile.
A week before his death, a good friend also came to visit him. Even though he was too painful to stand up, he sat up and took a group photo.
Ji Chunhua's martial arts master Chen Shun 'an revealed:
"He has been strong all his life. If he hadn't endured unbearable pain, he wouldn't have gone to see a doctor ..." At 9: 00 am on July1KLOC-0, 2065438, Ji Chunhua's memorial service was held in Hangzhou, and famous directors Zhang Jizhong, actors Chen Long and Xie Miao were present and looked sad.
At that time, the media also photographed Ji Chunhua's wife and daughter. The mother and daughter cried bitterly at the memorial service, which was really unbearable.
It is reported that this is the first time that Ji Chunhua's family has been exposed by the outside world. Prior to this, Ji Chunhua's wife and daughter had been living in the United States. In an interview, Ji Chunhua revealed that her daughter also has martial arts talent.
What about Ji Chunhua's wife and daughter? According to an insider, Ji Chunhua's wife lived in the United States as always, and her life was smooth sailing, while her clever daughter inherited Ji Chunhua's will early. Before Ji Chunhua's death, his daughter Ji Qiao won three gold medals at the American International Wushu Open, and then won three championships in boxing and long and short soldiers at the British International Wushu Championship.
After Ji Chunhua died, her daughter Ji Qiao continued to study in the United States. When she graduated from high school, she was admitted to Columbia University and the Film Academy of new york University. Finally, she chose to enter the former for further study.
Ji Chunhua's daughter is really unusual. It's a pity that Ji Chunhua will never see her daughter's future again. Earlier, Ji Chunhua said that he wanted to retire at the age of 60. If he is still alive, he will retire and enjoy his old age. But I also believe that Ji Chunhua's wife, daughter, friends and fans will never forget his brilliant mark.
