Zhang Xingzhe, once the main actor of shenyang military area command Qianjin Repertory Theatre, was one of Hu Mei's confidants. He once played an important role in the Northeast Anti-Union and Police Bandits in Police Bandits. Despite his handsome appearance, after Good Mom and Dad played the corrupt county magistrate and Police in the Police played the scum of the police to Dongping, he was rehabilitated as a villain, which attracted Hu Mei's attention and brought him into the crew of Confucius. In this play, Zhang Xingzhe plays Gong Shan, the doctor of Lu. By the side of King Lu, he held opposite views on Confucius and Confucianism at that time, and at the same time he was afraid that Confucius would be favored and framed him everywhere. He is the biggest villain in this film and the only villain.
As Fage's biggest rival in the film, Zhang Xingzhe and Fage have played against each other many times. Because it is the first time to cooperate with Chow Yun Fat, Zhang Xingzhe is a little nervous because of some rumors about his big name, and he still has some pressure before playing. "Indeed, when I was playing, Fage stood opposite. No matter his eyes or demeanor, people feel that his gas field is very strong, and I feel at a loss. " Although he is an old actor, Zhang Xingzhe was moved by Fage's tolerance and made some adjustments before going to perform. But as soon as the shooting started, Zhang Xingzhe's evil side was exposed. He made a bad threat to Brother Fage, which was very wonderful.
Director Hu Mei is also full of confidence in his painstaking work Confucius, and the attention brought by the superstar corps led by Chow Yun Fat is naturally important. Zhang Xingzhe told reporters that Brother Fage did have his tolerance and way of life in the crew, and he greeted everyone politely every day on the set, whether it was tea or field work. No matter who has done anything for him, he will stand up and say thank you. Whenever director Hu Mei tells a play, as long as Fage is present, he will listen carefully and then come down to discuss the role with others. For every young actor, as long as others ask him for advice, he will impart performance skills and experience. Most importantly, he often buys food for everyone on the set. After a hard day, he says goodbye to everyone when he leaves. Everyone was moved by his tolerance and so on. Therefore, as long as it is the scene of Fage, no matter who comes to work as an actor or a lighting, they are especially "caring" for Fage, for fear that their poor performance will affect Fage's performance.
Zhou Xun, who plays Nanzi, Chen Jianbin, who plays Ji Sunsi, and Bao, the director of photography, are not the only big names, but there are many big names and Qi Xin works together, which is also difficult for the general crew to do. This time, Chow Yun Fat firmly united the crew with the humble Confucian spirit. Because of Chow Yun Fat's modesty, Zhang Xingzhe laughed and said that he always yelled at Fage when he hit his opponent, but he felt a little "uncomfortable" at the thought of eating so many benefits from Fage.
