Ken Takakura's status is very high not only in the eyes of the Japanese people, but also overseas, especially in China. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It can even be said that there is no Japanese artist whose status in China can be compared to Ken Takakura.

The February 1981 issue of Popular Cinema published an interview with Ken Takakura entitled "I like happy and bright works", which was his first interview in the Chinese media. PO comes up as a control.

At a time when Japan-China film exchanges were unveiled again after a long hiatus, "Manhunt" starring Ken Takakura was one of the Japanese films that premiered in China. It has captured the hearts of movie fans with its fresh features and has gained a lot of audiences in China.

In the current Japanese film industry, Mr. Ken Takakura can be called one of the top male movie stars in terms of actor charm and acting skills. His charm was also fully demonstrated in the recent release of "The Call of the Distant Mountains" at the Japan Film Week held in China. The protagonist is also a man who is hunted down at the mercy of fate. In the depths of his indifferent exterior lies a warm and kind heart, which alone and quietly endures the test of fate. Such an image is precisely the most attractive part of the characters created by Ken Takakura. On the screen, this is how he inspires the audience to have longing and hope for life, but off the screen, what is his true face in daily life?

Ken Takakura is 50 years old. It has been a quarter of a century since he entered the film industry in 1955. In the long years, as an "image" of Japanese films, he has deep and wide roots among Japanese fans. Moreover, in 1970, he was also hired by the American film industry to play the leading role in the film. Another of his masterpieces, The Shinkansen Big Bang, was translated into French and became a smash hit in Europe and the United States, and finally made a triumphant return.

A group of Japanese films represented by the hunt entered China, completely subverting the aesthetics of the Chinese at that time. It is said that the pursuit of such a movie, the story is not surprising, but the contemporary life of Japan reflected in the film still has a huge impact on China, which is a story about contemporary Japan, and at that time, Chinese mainland's understanding of Japan basically stayed in the era of the Anti-Japanese War reflected in tunnel warfare and mine warfare, and basically knew nothing about the life of contemporary Japanese civilians. As the first film to be introduced, the hunt itself is a memorable event in the history of Chinese culture, and the prosecutor Du Qiu played by Ken Takakura is silent, forbearing, and persistent, tall and unrefined facial features, and even a little rough, but his resolute expression is in line with the male aesthetic tendencies of the entire East Asian cultural circle. For example, my cousin could recite the lines of Du Qiu in one breath, and the scene of Ken Takakura and Mayumi galloping on the streets of Tokyo under the melody of Layala made the hearts of young Chinese female audiences at that time flutter. International mail is very expensive, In the era when it took a huge time, Takakura Ken was able to receive a large number of Chinese women's love emails as far away as Japan, and the actor who dubbed for Mayumi also publicly stated that he would marry Takakura Ken; the Chinese young man took Takakura Ken's photo to the hospital and asked for plastic surgery to become a tough guy like him, Zhang Yimou, who was still a worker in the Shaanxi cotton mill at the time, never let go of the collar of his coat after seeing Takakura Ken's pursuit, and his admiration for Takakura Ken also contributed to a thousand miles of walking alone; in the daily language of the Chinese people, the beauty of the truth is used to refer to the beauty, and the two of the crossroads refer to the ugly men, and the north and the south of the river can be unified, which shows how much impact the hunt had on the lives of Chinese at that time.

There is an intimate scene between Ken Takakura and Mayu in the cave on the way to escape, and the copy shown in China was cut out without any suspense, so many years later, Chinese audiences still think that before the end of the story, the hero and heroine are pure male and female relationships...... On the contrary, it was director Zhang Yimou's thousand-mile solo ride, which did not leave too deep an impression on the Chinese audience. I also admired Ken Takakura's new movie, but it turned out to be a story that was not prominent, and Ken Takakura transformed into a kind old man, and gave up after watching it for ten minutes.

As a male god in China in the seventies and eighties of the last century, his status in the hearts of Chinese audiences is incomparable to that of first-class stars in the Japanese black and white film era, such as Toshiro Mifune and Shimura Bridge. Even after Tomokazu Miura became the representative of the handsome version of Japanese male stars, he had no impact on the status of Takakura's hard-line male stars. Although Ken Takakura has mostly starred in action martial arts films in Japan, Chinese audiences know little about it and have seen even less. Due to the too great impact of Takakura Ken's pursuit, Takakura Ken's later movies were basically introduced, and Mr. Bick of Shanghai Translation Studio was also handpicked by Takakura Ken as his royal Chinese voice actor, although it was also successful, but the impact was naturally not as good as the hunt. For people over 50 years old in China, he is a fashion icon of his time, the best foreign actor.

Ken Takakura, who is now over 80 years old, has been plagued by illness, and his body has lost a lot of weight.

Zhu Zi bowed deeply to this respected old artist to express his respect, there are very few artists in the entertainment industry who can be respected so much by Zhu Zi, and they can even be finished with one hand.

"Hello Mr. Takakura, I'm really sorry for letting you come all the way here. Zhu Zi said apologetically to Takakura Ken.

"Zhu Zijun, it's nothing, it just so happens that I've been at home for too long, so I've come out for a walk. Thank you also Zhu Zijun for being able to think of me, an old man. Ken Takakura's voice wasn't loud, but it seemed to be able to penetrate people's hearts.

"It should be said that it is my greatest honor to have you here, and thank you Mr. Takakura. Zhu Zi hurriedly said.

"Zhu Zijun, I heard that you are going to award me the Lifetime Achievement Award?" asked Takakura Ken.

"Yes, you deserve that honor. Zhu Zi looked at Takakura Ken solemnly.

"Donate all that prize money to the people in the earthquake-stricken area, who need these things more than I do. ”

Zhu Zi was in awe of the old man.

"Good. I will definitely do what Mr. Takakura asks. Zhu Zi hurriedly said.

Ken Takakura smiled: "I won't participate in the awards party tomorrow, I came here today just to get moving." ”

"Thank you very much for coming. Although Ken Takakura said so, Zhu Zi knew that this respected old artist was able to come over to give himself face.

The arrival of such a heavyweight guest is also a great blessing for the status and gold content of this TV festival.
