Qin Yi was born in Shanghai on January 31, 1922. On May 9, 2022, the witness and cultivator of China's Centennial film history, the "people's artist" and the "most beautiful striver", completed a full centenary of light and shadow life, and died at East China Hospital at 4:08 at the age of 100. She used to be Yu Zhen, a reborn and progressive woman in distant love; She is the witty and brave sister-in-law Fang Lin in "railway guerrillas"; Ma Lan, a determined LHD worker in Malan flowers, Lin Jie, who suffered a lot but was still optimistic in women's basketball No. 5, and Lin Hong, a Communist Party member who regarded death as a return to justice in the song of youth. She used to be a female doll of a feudal family. She had one brother and eight sisters. She lived on her own in the most difficult times; She once had two unsuccessful marriages, one ended in divorce five years later, and the other survived a long separation after experiencing sweetness and betrayal, and finally left her to caress her son alone. She has played many roles and left countless classic female images on the screen. But perhaps the most resolute, brave and beautiful image she left to the times and Chinese films is herself. A lifetime of ups and downs, hardships, but also a lifetime of strong and tenacious, never afraid and weak, always gentle and calm. Love movies, make movies In 1922, Qin Yi was born into a feudal family in Pudong, Shanghai. Fortunately, the father of Mr. Zhang Fang in Yihe foreign firm is more enlightened than the father of many students. He often takes Xiao qinyi to the movies. "You can see a new movie for 20 cents. If it's an old movie, it's only five cents." At that time, light and shadow quietly planted seeds in the little girl's heart. "Film is really a very special art. It can express people's inner world not only with language, eyes and expressions, but also with a small action. Therefore, after I became a film actor, I don't want to do anything else." According to Qin Yi, being a movie actor is due to her "running away from home". In 1938, at the suggestion of her classmates, Qin Yi, 16, left Shanghai, traveled around Hong Kong, came to Wuhan, Hubei and joined the Anti Japanese team with honor. "At that time, young people were not sensible and went to the front regardless of family opposition." So she worked as a nurse, carried a stretcher and supported the bloody Anti Japanese soldiers in front with the meager strength of a girl. Because of her good looks, Qin Yi was soon discovered and guided by the "revolutionary predecessors". In the same year, she entered the Chinese film studio as an intern and participated in drama and film works such as "thinking" and "good husband". "In this way, I embarked on the road of acting. From being unable to act to becoming enlightened gradually, I slowly learned the quality and cultivation of being a good professional actor and slowly realized the responsibility and responsibility of being a Communist through serious acting and film making." Do what you do, love what you do In 1941, Qin Yi left the Chinese film studio and entered the China drama art society to become an actor of the society. "When I was in Chongqing, I played six dramas a year for 280 days. I was the main role. I played nurses in the war field and sister-in-law in pavilions. I played all kinds of dramas. As long as the Japanese didn't bomb." She was also willing to run a dragon suit for others. Later, Qin Yi wrote a book called "running a dragon suit" to explain the "dragon suit spirit" in her heart. No other: do one line, love one line, specialize in one line and concentrate on one line. Take every role and performance seriously. After the victory of the Anti Japanese War, Qin Yi returned to Shanghai. When her father left, she carried the whole family, one film after another. Anonymous in 1947 and distant love in 1948. After the founding of the people's Republic of China in 1949, she became an actor in Shanghai Film Studio and starred in the films "lost love" and "mother". 1950 "farmhouse fun", 1951 "two spring". After a little rest, in 1956, Qin Yi completed two Masterpieces: Railway guerrillas and Malan flowers; In 1957, he starred in the first color feature film with sports theme "women's basketball No. 5" in New China; In 1958, he cooperated with sun Daolin and song Deyu to complete the red seed; In 1959, she co starred with Xie Fang in the film "song of youth" adapted from the novel of the same name by Yang Mo, and in the same year, she also starred in "Lin Zexu" jointly directed by Zheng Junli and Cen fan... In the field of television, Qin Yi is also a pioneer and model. In 1982, she starred in the TV series "under the eaves of the sea", and won the outstanding actress award of the first Golden Eagle Award of mass television. For honor, she said, "I'm really nothing great"; As for fame and wealth, she said, "all the money I earn supports my family. I really don't have much money and beautiful clothes, so I have to buy some blue cloth." Do as much as you can But even if she only wears blue clothes, Qin Yi is also beautiful. Her beauty, when surrounded by flowers. Her beauty is even more beautiful. After the prosperity has dissipated, she is elegant and strong in the face of favor and disgrace. At the age of 86, Qin Yi donated her life savings to the earthquake stricken areas; At the age of 93, Qin Yi wrote and acted by herself and raised funds to shoot the film by Qinghai Lake, which is full of enthusiasm. This story has been in my mind for ten years. As a result, Mei Xinyi, a female meteorological engineer, wrote a touching story about the country. It took Qin Yi only one and a half months to complete the script of more than 30000 words. She said that because she shared the same breath and fate with the characters in the play, the whole script was created "at one go". At that time, for the sake of the health of the elderly, someone advised her to set up a set in the studio in Shanghai, "artistic creation is inseparable from reality. I must go down to life and go to the plateau to shoot on the spot, so as to come from life and be higher than life, move the audience and be worthy of the audience." So, regardless of her age and body, she insisted on climbing the Qinghai Tibet Plateau with the crew members, insisted on working in the front line of shooting, and insisted on living and working forever. "We filmed on the plateau for more than a month, and I walked to 4300 meters." Nearly seven years after the film was made, Tong Ruixin, who was also a younger partner and head of the Shanghai Film troupe, said: "I always remember teacher Qin Yi's sentence that my age is not determined by me, but my life can be determined by me. As long as I live, I have to work, and work is better than not working." In the following years, Qin Yi took part in the costume film "demon cat" directed by Chen Kaige. At the age of 95, she played an old woman who had witnessed the ups and downs of the Tang Dynasty. Although she has only been filming for three days, Qin Yi still studies hard on the set. "As artists, it is necessary for us to learn a little about anything. As a film actor, although I have a little experience, it is not enough." In 2019, Qin Yi, 97, also participated in the public welfare film "everything is like you" during her convalescence in East China Hospital. In the camera, she made food for her wife and waited anxiously outside the ward. She was a little thin, but she had silver hair and red lips. Coupled with gold rimmed glasses, she was in high spirits; In the camera, Qin Yi has been with the film for more than 80 years since she participated in her first film "good husband" in 1939. Outside the camera, the 97 year old performing artist, as the only representative of the film industry, won the national honorary title of "people's artist" and the personal title of "most beautiful fighter"; Outside the camera, at the end of January this year, the reporter saw Qin Yi in the ward of East China Hospital for the last time. She was sitting quietly in front of the glass window of the ward, and her photos of her birthday in recent years were placed on the table. Looking at the time gently stroking, looking at her smile year after year, Qin Yi smiled again, as calm and beautiful as before. (outlook new era)
