The famous movie star "Golden Voice" Zhou Xuan is the queen of songs. Her life story, her marriage and her life path are a tragedy and a lamentation! Due to the complexity of Zhou Xuan's life experience, the film history circle has been inconclusive, especially in recent years, there are many disputes about right and wrong, and even went to court. We interviewed Mr. Zhao, an expert in film history. He has been collecting relevant information and studying Zhou Xuan's life for more than 20 years. The book Zhou Xuan's Self-report written by 1995 has a great influence. At the beginning of "You are a Star" series, we chose Ruan as the star lineup in the 1930s, and the ending was also coincidental, and Zhou Xuan, who also died young, ended. However, after this journey, there are still names standing in front of us.

■ Looking back, your life has ten names.

Zhou Xuan was born in a family named Su in Changzhou, Jiangsu. His scientific name is Sup, and he is a junior official. When Su Pu was three years old, he was trafficked by his uncle to Jintan County, Jiangsu Province, and was later adopted by a family named Wang and renamed Wang Xiaohong. Soon, Ouyang, the adoptive mother, remarried to a worker named Zhang in Shanghai and gave Xiaohong to a family named Zhou who lived in Shanghai North Road. In this way, Xiaohong changed her surname and called Zhou Xiaohong.

At the age of seven or eight, Zhou's family became poorer and poorer, so she was sent to a song and dance class. 1932 After being introduced, she joined the Yue Ming Song and Dance Troupe founded by Li Jinhui. Shortly after the "November 28th Incident", she sang the anti-Japanese song "The Light of the Nation" at a party. One of the lyrics is "Go ahead and deal with the battlefield". Xiaohong sang enthusiastically and was praised by the audience, so Li Jinhui gave Xiaohong a stage name. Later, it was suggested that the word "Xuan" be added with "Xie Wangbian" to become the word "Xuan" (Xuan is the name of Meiyu). From then on, in the entertainment circle, people affectionately called her "Xunzi".

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhou Xuan was invited to Hong Kong to make a film. During her stay in Hong Kong, she kept her valuables in the safe deposit box of the bank, and her account was named "Zhou Ying". 1957, Zhou Xuan was sent to Shanghai mental hospital for recuperation, and the name written on the medical record card was "Zhou Yufang". After Zhou Xuan died of illness, the Shanghai Notary Office notarized Zhou Xuan's inheritance right, and the name of the decedent in the notarial certificate was "Zhou Zhen".

"Golden Voice" Singing Red Beach

1934, Shanghai Evening News held a "Radio Singer Campaign", and Zhou Xuan, who had "jumped ship" to participate in the campaign, ranked second and won the title of "Golden Voice".

1937 On the eve of the July 7th Incident, Shanghai Yihua Company filmed a soft song and dance film starring Zhou Xuan, and sang the theme song "When will you come again?". . With the release of the film and the broadcast of the record, this song spread like wildfire and became a household name for a time. At 194 1, Japanese singer Li Xianglan (Shuko Yamaguchi) also recorded this song. At the same time, Zhou Xuan also sang "Four Seasons Songs" and "Singing Girl" in the movie "Street Angels". These two songs have been handed down to this day and become immortal classics.

1In May, 945, Zhou Xuan also held three solo concerts in Shanghai Jindu Grand Theatre, singing the Hai Yin Trilogy (the interlude of three films: The Fisherman's Daughter, Couple Singing and Feng Huang Yu Fei). Although the fare was as high as 3,000 yuan (old coins), it was snapped up by fans.

There is only one street angel.

Zhou Xuan's "debut" on the screen is Beauty Grace, produced by Tianyi Company and starring Lu. Zhou Xuan only staged a song and dance program in the film, but she was not the leading role, so she said her debut was Candlelight Night. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhao Dan and Zhou Xuan met in Shanghai. He asked Zhou Xuan what movies he had made in recent years. Zhou Xuan said sadly, "Forget it, none of them are my favorite plays. There is only one street angel in my life ... "1947, a reporter from Shanghai film magazine visited Zhou Xuan:" I wonder which one you were most satisfied with in the past? " Zhou Xuan modestly replied: "I don't feel satisfied, but ... street angels are the most memorable, because many friends like them." Although Zhou Xuan also appeared in more than a dozen films during the "Island" period, she lacked depth, and her performance was like passing clouds, which was soon forgotten.

"Where is the bosom friend?"

Zhou Xuan's husband Yan Hua is also a singer and dancer. 1938 got married, 194 1 became an "isolated island" in Shanghai because others provoked divorce. At that time, the media unanimously condemned Yan Hua and sympathized with Zhou Xuan. In fact, she and Yan Hua are both victims.

Shortly after Zhou Xuan and Yan Hua broke up, they met Zhu Huaide, a silk merchant. Zhou Xuan couldn't resist his sweet words and lived with him in Hongkong. After pregnancy, Zhou Xuan wants to go back to Shanghai and become a justified husband and wife with him. But when she returned to Shanghai, she finally found out that Zhu Huaide had cheated her.

After Zhou Xuan and Zhu Huaide broke up, he filmed The Dove of Peace in Shanghai at the invitation of Daguangming Film Company, and got to know the film artist Tang Di. 1952 In May, the day when they were going to hold a wedding was coming, but Tang Di was accused of "fraud and rape" and sentenced to three years in prison. A year later, the court revoked the original judgment and released him. When he got home, he realized that Zhou Xuan was ill and had been admitted to the hospital.

Without madness, there is no survival.

In the early 1950s, Zhou Xuan returned to Shanghai from Hongkong. She had symptoms of mental illness when she was in Hong Kong, especially in Shanghai. In fact, Zhou Xuan suffered from mental weakness in his early years and lived in Hongqiao sanatorium when filming in Shanghai. Later, she was sent to the hospital for treatment for six years and has improved. However, 1957 is very hot in summer. She was sent to the hospital because of a sudden encephalitis, and she was very ill and hopeless. She died at the age of 37.

After Zhou Xuan's death, Hong Kong director Tu Guangqi and others planned to shoot The Biography of Zhou Xuan, and Zhou Xuan's good friend and composer Li Houxiang provided nine letters written by Zhou Xuan after his return to Shanghai. Later, before filming, Tu Guangqi published these nine letters in Vientiane magazine of 1975.

In the first letter, Zhou Xuan expressed the joy of going home like this: "Shanghai is so quiet! Nothing has changed, but there are still good western music records to listen to, all of which are the latest; Clothes are also casually worn, which is very free; Why do those people like talking nonsense? How strange! " Who would have thought that the joy of going home is so close to death and the ideal free life is so far away from Zhou Xuan?

■ A sensational star whose expert opinion is "a flash in the pan"

Zhou Xuan shot to fame with Street Angels. With her sweet and soft voice, she became popular in the film industry. Every capital of Zhou Xuan is a must-sing. She impressed the audience with her voice and achieved good market results. Movies stimulate songs, and songs make movies more attractive to audiences.

After Zhou Xuan entered the film industry, it was also a flash in the pan. After Street Angel, she starred in a large number of costume films, and she didn't achieve much. Zhou Xuan's performance mainly depends on feeling and experience. Her performance is naturally revealed, and there are often some sincere and touching highlights. She didn't win by acting or character depth. She has her own talent, but unfortunately, due to various reasons, she failed to give full play to her talent and left several permanent artistic images for the audience on the screen. However, no matter when, China's films will never forget this lively young girl in Street Angel.
