黎铿Lai Keng

黎铿Lai Keng（1928年-1965年），出生于香港 ，中国第一代电影人黎民伟之子。4岁时在影片《人道》中扮演了一个惹人爱怜的男孩。之后，又在阮玲玉主演的《城市之夜》《人生》《归来》和《香雪海》等影片里扮演女主角的儿子。他那可爱的模样和自然贴切的表演为那个阴暗混乱的年代涂添了一抹亮色，也打动了每一个观众的心，可以称得上是20世纪30年代中国最为杰出的一位童星。除了演出，他还不时参与公益活动。1937年抗日战争爆发，他曾和几位童星一起到电台广播宣传抗日。 全国解放后，黎铿来到北京，在北京电影制片厂当了演员，参加了《民主青年进行曲》《一贯害人道》等影片的拍摄。1958年底调入珠影厂任演员兼副导演。1965年逝世，年仅37岁 。 2015年，时值黎铿逝世50周年，他的弟弟黎锡、生前好友费明仪及多名电影研究工作者，合力整理黎铿生平资料，出版《著名童星、朗诵艺术家黎铿》，以作纪念。费明仪和黎铿从小就是好朋友，因为费明仪的父亲是导演费穆，跟黎民伟一样在上海做电影，彼此都是熟人。费明仪回忆，他最后一次见到黎铿是在1960年1月，黎铿从广州到香港探望患病的母亲。当时黎已结婚7年，育有一女，原本性格开朗的黎铿变到很忧郁。费再三追问，黎才回答：“我很不快乐，我的婚姻出现问题，但又不能离婚，她不愿意，而且组织上也不批准！” 1965年2月9日，黎铿被发现于广州东湖公园自缢，终年37岁，临死前他有留下遗书。消息传出之后，政府对黎铿的死因讳莫如深，海内外则有各种传闻。 根据五邑大学学者凤群表示，黎铿年轻时满怀理想，一心想回到共产中国，一展艺术抱负，但留在香港的父母和中国国民党有深厚渊源。他的姐夫沈昌焕还是国民政府外交高官。在“以阶级斗争为纲”的年代，黎铿这样的背景在大陆根本难以受到重用。1962年底掀起“四清运动”（清政治，清经济，清组织，清思想），黎铿受到冲击，加上感情失意，身心饱受折磨，最终走入绝境。 Lai Keng 黎铿 (1928-1965), born in Hong Kong, is the son of Lai Minwei, China's first generation of filmmakers. When he was 4 years old, he played a lovable boy in the film "Humanity". After that, he played the son of the heroine in films such as "City Night", "Life", "Return" and "Fragrant Snow Sea" starring Ruan Lingyu. His cute appearance and natural and appropriate performance added a touch of brightness to that dark and chaotic era and touched the hearts of every audience. He can be regarded as the most outstanding child actor in China in the 1930s. In addition to performing, he also participates in charity activities from time to time. When the Anti-Japanese War broke out in 1937, he and several child stars went to the radio to broadcast anti-Japanese propaganda. After the liberation of the country, Li Keng came to Beijing and became an actor at the Beijing Film Studio. He participated in the filming of films such as "March of Democratic Youth" and "Always Harmful to Humanity". At the end of 1958, he was transferred to Pearl Film Studio as an actor and assistant director.Li Keng died in 1965, only 37 years old. In 2015, the 50th anniversary of Li Keng's death, his younger brother Li Xi, his friend Fei Mingyi and many film researchers worked together to compile information on Li Keng's life and published "Famous Child Actor and Recitation Artist Li Keng" as a masterpiece. commemorate. Fei Mingyi and Li Keng have been good friends since childhood, because Fei Mingyi's father is the director Fei Mu, who like Li Minwei made movies in Shanghai, and they are all acquaintances with each other. Fei Mingyi recalled that the last time he saw Li Keng was in January 1960. Li Keng went from Guangzhou to Hong Kong to visit his sick mother. At that time, Li had been married for 7 years and had a daughter. Li Keng, who was originally cheerful, became very depressed. Fei asked again and again, and Li replied: "I'm very unhappy. There are problems in my marriage, but I can't get a divorce. She doesn't want to, and the organization doesn't approve it!" On February 9, 1965, Li Keng was found hanging himself in Donghu Park, Guangzhou. He was 37 years old. He left a suicide note before his death. After the news came out, the government kept secret about the cause of Li Keng's death, and there were various rumors at home and abroad. According to Feng Qun, a scholar at Wuyi University, Li Keng was full of ideals when he was young and wanted to return to Communist China to express his artistic ambitions. However, his parents who stayed in Hong Kong had deep connections with the Chinese Kuomintang. His brother-in-law Shen Changhuan is also a senior diplomatic official of the National Government. In the era of "class struggle as the key link", it is difficult for Li Keng's background to be reused in mainland China. At the end of 1962, the "Four Cleans Up Movement" (cleaning up politics, cleaning up economy, cleaning up organization, and cleaning up ideas) was launched. Li Keng was hit hard, emotionally frustrated, physically and mentally tortured, and finally reached a desperate situation.
