Lin Lisen's experience

Lap sam Lam immigrated to Canada after finishing Secondary Three in Hong Kong, and all his universities were completed in Canada. When he entered the university, he chose the department of business administration at first, not the department of drama.

"My father asked me to study Pakistan. When I was a child, my ambition was to be a policeman and a lawyer. Later, I didn't do it, because a good boy is not a policeman. Being a lawyer seems to be a lawsuit for the rich, which seems not very good. " At that time, the department of business administration had to take an art-related subject in the first year. "So I asked an English teacher in my former middle school which subject I should choose, and she told me why I didn't choose drama. She told me I could try, so I chose drama. "

At that time, he was the only one from China who studied drama. He said that he remembered going to class at that time. ...

"For the first time, the dean asked all students to prepare a personal performance. At that time, I just entered the department and didn't know anything. I don't know how to do it well. He asked me to perform in the culture and language I know best, so I used a poem by Li Bai to complete the performance. He gave me a lot of space to find myself from this process. "

He said this poem is Li Bai's "Secretary Deng Farewell in Xuanzhouzhuang":

I had to leave Potter and me since yesterday.

It hurts my heart even more today.

Autumn geese are escorted by Changfeng, and I treat them in this villa and drink my wine.

The bones of great writers are all your brushes. In Tianyuan, I grew up beside you, Xiao Xie.

We all yearn for the distance and want to go to the blue sky to embrace the bright moon.

But since the water is still flowing, although we cut it with a sword, sadness will come back, even though we drown them with wine.

Since the world can't satisfy our desire, I will loosen my hair and get on a fishing boat tomorrow.

He said that because this poem impressed me the most when I was studying, I didn't say anything, so I interpreted it in a dramatic way. Learning drama in a foreign country is very hard. In addition to the dean's teaching, he not only found himself in the process, but also gave him a lot of room for thinking and creation.

In the first year after reading drama, Lap sam Lam decided to give up his business administration major completely and study drama instead, because he found that he used to like drama very much. "Thank the dean at that time for giving me the opportunity to find myself. He accepted me now and let me be myself again." However, his decision almost made his six relatives collapse. At that time, when Lin Lisen said he wanted to study drama, his family collected a lot of information and explained it to him. Almost 70% to 80% of people who study this subject have no fixed jobs, just making money. This is a job with no future. "My family is against it, because my family are professionals. I have six brothers and sisters, and I am the youngest. My whole family doesn't support me to study drama. When I was studying this subject, I almost broke my six parents. " He described the six years of study as very hard, because without the support of his family, he had to earn all the living expenses and tuition by himself. In order to earn tuition, he worked as a waiter, a salesman, a hamburger seller, a kitchen, and bean sprouts washer, and he tried almost all the manual labor you could count. "At that time, I washed bean sprouts at three in the morning and went back to school at seven in the morning. Then the rehearsal began at midnight. Sometimes I sleep in the rehearsal room and go to rework. "

In the eyes of family members, a department with no future and a job with no future have been thirty years. Today, Lin Lisen has his name in theaters, TV movies and academia. Lin Lisen graduated from the Theatre School of the University of Winnipeg with a bachelor's degree and a master's degree, and once taught there. 198 1 returned to Hong Kong to perform the musical Disney Shuttle Show and then stayed in Hong Kong for development.

"Later, Zhong Jinghui was preparing a new play in Hongkong Repertory Theatre, and I was invited to play a role. When I returned to Hong Kong, I didn't think about developing in Hong Kong, so I stayed in Hong Kong. Everything is like fate. It happened. " However, when he set foot in the film and television industry, he thought it was an accident. "Because I left Hong Kong as a child, I am not familiar with Hong Kong's TV and movies. I just want to know more, but I don't just want to be a star, because I want to know the operation mode. "

Later, Jing Hui Cong told him that Hong Kong was going to set up an Academy for Performing Arts and wanted to ask him to help teach part-time, so the life of part-time teaching began. "At that time, I was already a wireless artist. After performing art every day, TVB's car will wait for me outside and take me to film. "

At that time, he taught performing arts courses, including sounds, human movements and other things related to stage performances. When he started teaching, Lin Lisen was only 27 years old and was the youngest teacher in the school.

"I was very excited. At that time, students did not know much about the level of drama. In Hong Kong at that time, this was a new course, and students didn't quite understand it at first. "

Lin Lisen said that in the first year, more than 1000 people applied, but in the end only 40 students were admitted. But he was surprised that Hong Kong students didn't know much about drama, but they didn't expect to have such a great desire. "At that time, I was very excited. The students I came into contact with were full of longing for drama. Some students are older than themselves and feel a little scared. " "I told them that when you gradually become a performer, you will gradually open up your personal feelings. Performance is not today's experience, but you will slowly study and explore day after day, and naturally go to a certain form to express it. " Lin Lisen has been teaching for 23 years since the establishment of the Drama School of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts. Summarizing the teaching in the past 20 years, he said that from the first session to today, the quality of students will always change, because the society is constantly developing, and students' experiences, experiences and cultures will of course be different, which all affect the quality of students. He said not from the student level but from the training mechanism.

Having been engaged in drama for many years, he admits that up to now, people who study drama and graduate are unemployed, 70% to 80% of the world are free people, and there are few full-time actors.

"To be an actor, you have to have a dramatic heart. Even if you face many difficulties, even if you sell hamburgers, as long as you have the heart, you are an actor. It doesn't matter if you didn't become an actor at first. You will always have a chance to return to the theater slowly in the future. "

Lin Lisen said he wouldn't call himself an artist. He thinks he is just a worker who promotes drama culture. For him, art and culture should be promoted, and there is a good promotion of art and culture abroad. "Creativity should be cultivated from an early age, not in the theater. You must start with thinking. Now Hong Kong is competing for the audience in the theater. In fact, the audience can decide what is good and what is not good, not someone. "

Lin Lisen was the first person to bring pantomime to Hong Kong. However, some people think that he has not done enough to promote pantomime. However, he responded that foreign countries have specialized schools for different types of drama, while Hong Kong has only one academy for performing arts. In this structure, only drama ranks first. When teaching performing arts, he also spent a lot of time teaching them body movements. "I guide them, and then they push them to find the way they want to go, instead of pushing them alone at school, because I teach them physical expression, they can decide for themselves, and they can use mime as their own performing art. I am sowing, and in the process of sowing, they chose their own way. " A few years ago, Lin Lisen won the Outstanding Professional Award in the Drama Industry. At that time, he didn't attend the awards because of health problems. However, he wrote a letter in which he especially thanked three people, one of whom was his mother ... "I want to thank three very important people. They all occupy a very important position in my drama life. The first one is my mother, because I have been performing on the stage since I was in primary and secondary schools, and every time. At that time, I studied in a boys' school. No matter whether I play a male role or a female role, she always supports and encourages me and tries to prepare everything for me. "

However, Lap sam Lam has been in the entertainment circle for many years and performed countless times, but his parents have never seen his performance. "When I was in college, my classmates had parents to watch, but I didn't. I felt a little ... but I got used to it later. " Although in the interview, he said that it was a habit for his parents never to watch his performances, it was not a pity. However, in his thank-you letter, there is a clue ... maybe ... everything is silent, as he said: "My parents are the most important people in my life, especially when I am sick, I deeply feel that blood is thicker than water. I didn't expect 50 years, so it turned out to be like this. There is such a song, and the song excerpt is as follows:

I don't know love. Who knows more about love?

I don't feel heartache, who will feel more heartache?

I cherish you, and you should cherish yourself.

The stronger the feeling, the more it will be, but obviously this is love.
