Malan: The most expensive beauty in Journey to the West, 3 minutes, the director picked up by plane

According to Sina, at that time Ma Lan was a famous star, a Chinese national A-list artist. She is both talented and colorful, receiving many art awards. However, Ma Lan works in the field of theater and does not act in dramas.

Journey to the West 1986 is still a classic film about Tang Tang's teachers and students. Every summer, the story of the visiting trip is mentioned and broadcast on television. Besides 4 teachers and students of Tang Tang, the character once impressed the audience because he only appeared for 3 minutes on the movie but the cassette was very "terrible", that is the mother of Tang Tang starring artist Ma Lan.

In Journey to the West 1986, actress Ma Lan (born in 1962) played the role of Lady An Wenqiao, the daughter of the prime minister. She should be predestined to join the former faculty of Tran Quang Nhui and go to Jiangzhou with her husband to take office. Unfortunately, on the way, her husband was harmed by a ferryman. Later, she gave birth to a son, Tran Huyen Trang, who was also Tang Tang.

While she had a headache not knowing who to choose to play the role of Lady An, Ma Lan caught the eye of director Yang Jie. In the 1980s, Ma Lan was the leading actress on the Chinese theater stage. Since the ag.e of 20, she has been promoted to a national first-class actress.

Not only that, Ma Lan also owns a huge fortune and is full of prestigious prizes. In 1986, she won the Plum Blossom Awar.d, the highest awar.d for drama actors. In 1988, Ma Lan won the best actress awar.d in 2 prestigious awards ceremonies in China, Kim Ung and Phi Thien...

Looking at Ma Lan's excellent performance on stage, director Duong Jiet was sure that Miss An must be this actress and no one else. But unexpectedly, when the film crew sent an invitation, they received a refusal from Ma Lan because of other schedules.

However, director Duong Jiet also declared: If there was no Ma Lan, there would be no "Journey to the West". Because she saw that, she did not give up but decided to negotiate with Ma Lan, and even rented a special plane to pick her up from Beijing to Yunnan, where the film crew was filming. They filmed quickly and then took her back to the troupe on the same day.

In addition, in order to invite this A-list actress, the Journey to the West film crew was willing to pay the highest remuneration of 20,000 yuan (more than 71 million VND), which was a very large number at that time. Even Lu Xiaoling Dong - the actor who plays the main role of Sun Wukong only receives 100 yuan (more than 350 thousand VND) per episode, while the salary of "The Eight Kingdoms" Ma Duc Hoa is only about 50 yuan - 80 yuan/episode.

Even to save costs, many of the main actors of Journey to the West such as Luc Tieu Linh Dong, Tri Trong Thuy, Diem Hoai Le ... had to take on many other supporting characters.

However, in the case of Ma Lan, director Duong Khiet was willing to spend a large amount of mone.y to have her presence. This is enough to sho.w how much the female director appreciates Ma Lan's talent and values.

Touched by director Duong Khiet's feelings, Ma Lan accepted. She became the actress who received the highest salary and remuneration of the Journey to the West film crew. It wasn't until Ma Lan appeared on the small screen that everyone understood why director Luong Khiet was determined to invite her and was willing to offer such good treatment. In just the moment of standing upstairs throwing the groom's cocoon hydrangea, without a single line, the actress showed everyone the image of a young lady of the Prime Minister's family coming out of the book.

Especially the scene of An Wenqiao suppressing her grief, having to abandon her chil.d so that she could survive, made many viewers in front of the small screen shed tears. Without any wailing or supporting words, Ma Lan was able to express the mother's heart-rending pai.n only thanks to her trembling hands as if trying to hold on to something but unable to do it.

It's just a supporting role with little acting land in Journey to the West, and rarely appears on the screen, so many Vietnamese viewers mistakenly believe that Ma Lan is just a little-known actor. However, in fact, she is an extremely talented and famous artist in China, a leading actor "Huang Mai Hi" (a type of traditional Chinese drama).

At the ag.e of 20, she was already the leader of the troupe, successively taking on many leading roles in hi.t plays. In terms of television, Ma Lan does not act in many films. She only appeared in 4 films, namely Journey to the West, Pak Quan Kinh Mong, Dieu Chi Hanh Hoa Thon and Nghiem Phuong Anh... But the role has left its own mark.

Currently, the actress has turned 62 years old and lives happily with her husband who is 16 years older. Her husband is Du Thu Vu - art theorist, cultural historian, essayist and former principal of the Shanghai Academy of Drama. The two have no children and often date, travel everywhere together, as salty as in the beginning.

In 2007, Ma Lan was also awarded the "Lifetime Achievement Awar.d for the Best Artist in Asia" by the Lincolh Center for the Performing Arts, New York, USA and the American-Chinese Association. In addition to acting, the actress is also involved in teaching, is a professor at Zhejiang Communication University and an honorary expert of the Shuyihai Drama Academy.
