Acting experience

Zong Liqun, male, from Funing County, Qinhuangdao City, Hebei Province, is a national first-class actor. He plays "Peng Dehuai" in many films and TV works.

In 1988, Bayi film studio wanted to shoot the film "the report of the female instructor", which reflected the theme of the army reform. The director needed to find an actor who knew both military affairs and military temperament in the army to play the chief of staff of the artillery brigade in the film. At that time, Zong Liqun, who was already the chief of staff of the regiment, was leading the convoy to carry out the transportation support task for Bayi plant. His unique military temperament was found by the director and he was selected to play the role of chief of staff. Although this is the first time that he has ever been involved in a movie in his life, and he is a supporting actor with few scenes, Zong Liqun's moves in the camera are so appropriate and natural, and there is no trace of acting. He makes a middle-level officer of our army truly credible. The performance is recognized by everyone, and the director is very pleased.

In 1990, the historical blockbuster "decisive battle" began to "recruit troops and buy horses" across the country. The cast has traveled all over the country to various professional literary and art groups, and several other special actors with the image of great men have been in place, but no special actor has been found to play Peng Dehuai. Before that, Ding Xiaoyi of the Central Experimental Drama Company and Lei Fei of Beijing People's Art Troupe had played Peng Dehuai in such films as Peng Dajun, Weiwei Kunlun and conquering Taiyuan, respectively. However, Li Jun, the leader of Bayi factory and the chief director of decisive battle, wanted a higher role this time. They said that this special type of actor must be similar in shape and have an innate military temperament and general demeanor.

Zong Liqun said that he has artistic potential in himself. In primary schools, middle schools and the army, he is the backbone of the literature and art propaganda team. Singing and dancing, recitation, Allegro and so on are all the programs he often performs on stage. However, as a special type actor, Peng Dehuai's successful performance was helped by his professional military career and rich artistic quality. Opportunities are often given to those who are prepared. In shaping the role of Peng Dehuai, he emphasized on rendering the meaning of Mao Zedong's poem "who dares to strike a sword at once, only I, general Peng", in order to locate Peng Dehuai's courage and boldness.

For more than ten years, Zong Liqun, as a special actor, has played Peng Dehuai in more than 60 films and TV series, such as decisive battle, great turning point, bloody Taihang, decisive battle of China's destiny, Liangjian, on Taihang Mountain, destiny of the country, five-star red flag flying in the wind, Oriental, Mao Zedong, and sometimes as a producer Director, open up a new world for his favorite performing career.

In 2009, he filmed the great cause of the founding of the people's Republic of China and continued to play Peng Dehuai. On March 22, 2011, the CCTV series "Oriental" played Peng Dehuai.
