Shanghai Zhou Jie International Dance School was established in China.

After the film "Yang Guifei" was released, the audience were not only amazed at the grand scene and novel ideas of the film, but also impressed by the superb acting skills of "Yang Guifei". How did Zhou Jie, the actor of Yang Guifei, become this role?

Zhou Jie has been active on the film and television stage in recent years. The image of Li Fei created by her in Burning Yuanmingyuan and Listening to Politics through Curtain has aroused great pity and sympathy from the audience. Her performance skills in Miracle Goodbye, King Sulu and Emperor China, Night Talk in Dunhuang, Hate the Sea and Biography of Yang Guifei are impressive.

As we know, Yang Yuhuan ranks first among the four beauties in ancient China, and her love story with Li Longji, the romantic son of the Tang Dynasty, is a household name. Chen Jialin, a director who is famous for shooting historical themes, has always wanted to create a beautiful, kind, simple and lively Yang Guifei on the screen. To be fair to Yang Yuhuan, he is guilty of "disaster". After the film and television co-production scheme of Yang Guifei and Tang Dynasty was determined, a contest was held in 199 1 autumn to select Yang Guifei. There are famous singers Li, movie and TV stars, Fang Shu, Deng Jie and He Qing. 1700 or above, all girls with good color and art want to play this world-famous peerless beauty. So everyone used their housekeeping skills and showed their magical powers.

When Zhou Jie entered the beauty contest, everyone was surprised as follows: With her superior beauty, reputation as a "queen dancer" and unique experience in film and television and dance performances, Yang Guifei seemed to belong to her. But seeing her 164cm height, 46kg weight and graceful figure, I was thinking: Yang Canyu Huan, a fat beauty, could it be her? Unsurprisingly, despite Zhou Jie's graceful dancing and beautiful face, Japanese investors ticked her name with a stroke of the pen. How sad Zhou Jie is. In order to get this role, she has declined the invitation to perform at Lincoln Center in the United States and other film auditions of the cast. She cried when the director told her that her role as Yang Guifei had decided to re-elect as an actor. It was 1990 12.30, Zhou Jie's 29th birthday. She never imagined that the birthday present given to her by the director would be so bitter!

At the beginning of the new year, the six deputy directors of the crew were divided into three groups and cast nets all over the country to select a Yang Guifei who was recognized by both Chinese and Western audiences. In the anxious waiting, Zhou Jie folded his hands, looked at the sky and prayed silently. Half a year passed, and six deputy directors returned empty-handed. "There is no more suitable person than Zhou Jie." At this time, the ambitious Japanese not only invested in Yang Guifei, but also wanted to engage in Tang Dynasty song and dance as a magic weapon to attract customers. Zhou Jie danced and danced, full of emotions, and talked about Dunhuang art and songs and dances in the Tang Dynasty. The Japanese were impressed by her beauty and excellent dancing ability. The director informed them of the news of choosing a princess in due course. They think that Zhou Jie is not fat, but her charm is almost the same as that of Yang Yuhuan in her mind, so they readily agree that Yang Yuhuan in the movie "Yang Guifei" should be played by her.
