Characters and deeds
Out of the smoke
Liu Bingyi's artistic path is quite legendary. He likes singing by nature. In order to celebrate the liberation in middle school, Liu Bingyi and his classmates went to the streets to sing heartily, but he never thought of singing as a lifelong career.
In the early 1950s, a large number of young students responded to the call of the state to join the army, resist US aggression and aid Korea, and defend their country. The 16-year-old Liu Bingyi also resolutely put on his military uniform. He dreams of flying into the blue sky to shoot down the American ace pilot and hit the air invaders hard. In the physical examination, because he could not pass the "vertigo" pass, he had to give up the "flying dream", and then went into the military and political school. When he heard that he was going to be assigned to the Navy, he was excited again. As a child, living on the sea, he always loved the blue sea, the sailing ships, especially the mighty warships.
However, before long, Liu Bingyi's "dream of the sea" was broken again. One day, Liu Bingyi, who was playing on the basketball court, saw several people wearing volunteer clothes pointing at the basketball court, and his fate was completely changed at this moment. The next day, the leader of the school talked to him and told him that he had been formally called into the volunteer corps. Liu Bingyi is angry. The iron man should fight in the battlefield. How can he play and sing? He was in a big mood for this. But soldiers are soldiers. Liu Bingyi finally chose to obey the order and became a soldier in the field of literature and art. He went to the Korean battlefield with the volunteers to perform for the volunteers who were fighting on the front line. On the Korean battlefield, Liu Bingyi experienced the fierce fighting and the blood of his comrades in arms, honed in the smoke of gunpowder and grew into a real literary warrior. He not only sang for the soldiers, but also talked about cross talk and allegro. Because of his hard work and diligence, he got a rare opportunity to learn. He was sent to the Korean national theater to study. At that time, Pyongyang was a real "Pyongyang", and the whole city was almost razed to the ground. It was the first time that Liu Bingyi learned the meaning of singing in the basement. Later, on the battlefield, Liu Bingyi seized every opportunity to learn from the artists of the delegation. It was freezing cold. He stood in the snow practicing his voice. His eyebrows and hair were covered with frost.
In this way, Liu Bingyi's song resounded through the flames of war.
Forever regret
Liu Bingyi always has regrets for his artistic performance. After each performance, he has to seriously sum up and find out the "regrets" of this performance as the research topic of the next performance, so as to make his singing art perfect day by day. Therefore, when some young actors asked him if he was tired of singing, Liu Bingyi said with great interest: of course not. Every time there are regrets, improvements and new pursuits. How can he feel tired?
When it comes to regret, Liu Bingyi's biggest regret is that he did not have the opportunity to show Chinese and foreign opera art on the opera stage.
In 1957, Liu Bingyi, who returned from the Korean War, was admitted to the Vocal Music Department of the Central Conservatory of music. With his hard work and unremitting pursuit, he completed five years of vocal music training with excellent results. In 1962, he successfully played the hero Onegin in the classic drama Eugene Onegin, which was performed by the Central Opera House. Working in the opera house is almost certain, and the dream of opera is coming true. At this time, the school leaders found him: the Conservatory of music has rich opera art, which needs to be studied, inherited, developed and innovated, and the school authorities hope that he can stay in school. After serious thinking, Liu Bingyi gave up his dream opera stage and chose to stay in school and teach while studying.
However, things are unpredictable and changeable. In the later years, Liu Bingyi participated in the rehearsal of the revolutionary historical epic "Dongfanghong" and experienced the glorious years when revolutionary songs were sung by everyone, but he never had the chance to be on the opera stage again. What made him even more regretful was that the opera art, which he had studied in order to study more, had also disappeared in the turbulent times. And this has become Liu Bingyi's eternal regret.
Sing again
"I offer oil for our motherland" is the song that Liu Bingyi must sing in every performance. Even for a while, it seems that this song has become his only song, which has really made Liu Bingyi "depressed" for quite a while. However, every time he heard the audience's warm applause and cheers, Liu Bingyi felt gratified again and again.
In the late 1980s, when Hong Kong and Taiwan songs were in vogue, Liu Bingyi once again sang the song "I offer oil for the motherland" at a concert for college students. He originally thought that the students under the stage had not experienced that era, and they were not familiar with that era at all. However, it was totally unexpected. The music made the students feel excited, excited and resonant, which pushed the whole party to a climax. Even the art director of the party was surprised at the whole scene. Liu Bingyi deeply feels that a song can shock generations, even young people in the new era, which shows that the song itself has gone beyond the limitations of the times and reflects a kind of spirit. Although this song sings the aspirations of oil workers, it also sings the most profound spiritual connotation of the Chinese nation, so it can move the hearts of generations.
Liu Bingyi thinks: a good song should first be attributed to the songwriter. As a singer, he just shows a good work with his own voice. No good work, no matter how good the singer is, he can make bricks without straw.
Speaking of the song "I offer oil for the motherland", Liu Bingyi has endless stories. In fact, this song almost died in that hot era. During the "Cultural Revolution", the song "I offer oil for the motherland" was regarded as "only see oil, not route", and was almost "revolutionized". At that time, Qin Yongcheng and Liu Bingyi discussed how to save the song, so they made some "revolutionary" changes to the lyrics of the song, which made the song survive and have immortal life. After the "Cultural Revolution", Liu Bingyi and Qin Yongcheng came to Daqing. When they met Xue Zhuguo again, they bowed deeply to him and apologized for the "tampering". But Xue Zhuguo held Liu Bingyi's hand tightly and said, "you saved me and this song."
The road to fame
On the evening of March 27, 2010, Tianjin Concert Hall. The famous baritone singer Liu Bingyi returned to the dressing room with flowers. His solo concert just ended. He had already finished all the songs, but at the request of his father in Tianjin, he returned to the stage three times to sing his most popular songs, I offer oil for our motherland, song of fleas and Alma, but his fans still refused to let him go. In the face of the dressing mirror in the dressing room, recalling the enthusiastic audience and long-standing applause just now, 60 years seems to flash back one by one in front of him. He can't help but burst into tears
Literature and art soldiers on the Korean battlefield
When Liu Bingyi was 16 years old, the Korean War broke out. At that time, the Chinese air force was just in its infancy. Liu Bingyi, a passionate man, heard about the war situation in the Korean battlefield. He wanted to fly a plane into the sky to "fight against the US emperor", so he decided to join the army. By the end of the army's training, Liu Bingyi, who was assigned to the Navy, was full of dreams and ready to report for duty. Unexpectedly, the accident happened.
One day, Liu Bingyi, who was playing basketball on the basketball court, saw several people wearing the uniform of the volunteer army passing by. Then the leader talked to him and asked him to go to the Korean battlefield
