"Changing face" is a unique skill of Sichuan Opera, which enjoys a good reputation at home and abroad. When it comes to the sudden change of face in Sichuan Opera, people will naturally think of Wang Daozheng, a famous actor in Sichuan Opera. He has visited the Federal Republic of Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Italy, Japan, Singapore and other countries as well as Hong Kong and Taiwan, and appeared in CCTV's Super Variety. 1996 10, Wang Daozheng went to Hong Kong to attend the "Celebrate the National Day and Welcome the Return" of people from all walks of life in Hong Kong, and performed the stunt of "changing face" of Sichuan Opera, which was called "the king of changing face" by Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao.

Wang Daozheng's "sudden change" began at 1985.

1In June, 1985, Sichuan Sichuan Theater went to West Berlin to attend the 3rd World Cultural Festival of Horizon 85 and performed The Legend of the White Snake. He got special clothes and props to change his face from his brother Liu Zhongyi.

1980- 12, Liu Zhongyi went to Hong Kong with the theater to perform the purple cymbals of The Legend of the White Snake, and changed four faces, which made Hong Kong people an eye-opener. Wang Daozheng followed his brother Liu Zhongyi's example, and after hard study and repeated exploration, it increased to five faces, which caused a sensation at the opening ceremony of the Third World Cultural Festival and fascinated the western audience, and was known as the "world master of changing roles in makeup".

1in may, 1987, Sichuan opera "the legend of white snake" went to fusang in the east, performed in Tokyo, Japan 16, and toured 8 performances in 7 major cities. Four Japanese journalists followed 24 videos to study the secret of Wang Daozheng's "face changing" and found that his "face changing" speed was within 1 second. As for the secret, where is it?

During the period of 1996, Wang Daozheng was invited to perform in Singapore and Hongkong, and performed Sichuan Opera's unique skill "Changing Face" alone. In just three and a half minutes, eight faces such as green, blue, red, yellow, brown, black, white and gold changed one after another. 1996 At the National Day Gala in Hong Kong, the host, Miss Shen Dianxia, gave a thumbs-up and praised again and again: "Wonderful, wonderful! We stood by and couldn't see any change in your face. I only know that you have organs on your head and many organs on your body. " Hong Kong's "gold medal host" Mr. He Shouxin also joked: "Even if you don't blink, you can't see the trick. Black face and red light are shining, which is even more dazzling. "

Since 1985, how many times has Wang Daozheng "changed" her face during this 10 year? He can't remember clearly. From Chengdu to Beijing, from hometown to overseas, from east to west, from stage to screen, it is gratifying that there has never been a mistake. Wang Daozheng summed up his "face-changing" trick as 14: "Manual with chest and feet, steady in place." Manual manipulation of the body, including the chest and feet, means that all parts of the body need to cooperate closely, know fairly well, strive to be round and square, convey the spirit with form, and have both form and spirit, so as to achieve a "face change" that is stable, accurate, fast, handsome and beautiful. Just like people use household appliances in real life, the "face change" of Sichuan opera is also a face and a "button". In the performance, the actor can only touch by feeling, but can't see with his eyes. At first glance, they will be out of shape and distracted. Wang Dao is about to master the eight "organs" before he can change his face. Of course, it is not computer operation, and sometimes mistakes will occur, but it will not disappear after changing face, but during operation. Once I changed my face and ordered the third face book, but I touched the "button" of the fourth Facebook. Rich background experience made him fully prepared. First, he confused the audience with several performances, won an extremely precious golden time of one or two seconds, searched for the third "organ" of the face book, and still changed in an orderly way, never revealing the ingot.
