Edit ✎ the Seventh Street Bartender
She is the "Four Mad Kings" of Hong Kong in the mouth of Hong Kong media along with Lan Jieying, Cai Fenghua and Hong Chaofeng.
Less than 18 years old, she became famous with one wind and moon film after another, and became a "goddess of wind and moon films" on a par with Ye Yuqing and Ye Ziqiao.
At the age of 21, he was handpicked by Stephen Chow to play the role of a beautiful and moving female killer in "Domestic Ling Ling Paint" and became famous, and had the opportunity to "wear clothes back one by one".
But at the movie premiere of "Sensory World" four years later, she was unusual, in front of the media, emotionally cut her wrist with a knife,
The police came to dissuade her, but she remained unmoved, constantly yelling and going crazy, acting insanely, shocking the whole Hong Kong.
In 2002, she became a mother, thinking that she would cheer up when she was involved, who knew that when the child was just over the moon, she jumped from the 24th floor,
ended a short 29-year life.
She is the most talked-about and controversial actress in the Hong Kong entertainment industry in the 90s - Chen Baolian.
A bumpy life, with a peerless face, but never able to seek a true heart.
01
Chen Baolian, known as Zhao Jing until she was 12 years old, was born in Shanghai.
Grandma Wang Yi graduated from Fudan University in Shanghai, is an old Shanghai famous actor, because of her beauty and the reputation of "Little Wang Danfeng".
Ripples
Grandfather Liu Qingqian was also an actor in the early years, and many years after the two got married, they gave birth to their daughter Liu Xiaoyi, which is naturally regarded as a treasure.
Liu Qingqian
Liu Xiaoyi, who has lived in a honeypot since she was a child, can be satisfied with anything she wants, and is a well-deserved little princess.
But such good days did not last long, and in 1969, Liu Qingqian chose to prove his innocence by death because he was falsely accused of being a "reactionary agent."
Subsequently, Wang Yi was isolated and reviewed, and the unsupervised Liu Xiaoyi became a "dog cub", suffering from white eyes and insults, and her personality became more and more paranoid.
For her, nothing in the world is important than money, only money can make her live a good life and make her respected.
She misses the days when she was once spoiled as a princess, so after meeting a talented painter who is willing to coax her with sweet words, she quickly falls in love with each other.
After marrying a painter, on May 23, 1973, Liu Xiaoyi gave birth to her daughter Zhao Jing (Chen Baolian).
This seemingly happy marriage, but after marriage, it was a chicken feather, and it lasted only four years before parting ways.
After the divorce, Liu Xiaoyi, who was still young, did not want this "drag oil bottle" daughter to drag her down and left her to her mother to raise.
Grandma felt very sorry for this little granddaughter who was suffering her life, and couldn't wait to transfer all the debts she once owed to her daughter to Zhao Jing, and in her grandmother's body, Zhao Jing felt love for the first time.
However, this carefree and happy life only lasted until Zhao Jing was 12 years old and came to an abrupt end.
In 1985, Liu Xiaoyi suddenly returned home and told her mother that she wanted to take her daughter to Hong Kong to develop "what she wanted".
In fact, at this time, Wang Yi has returned to the film industry, and the life at home is not as embarrassing as it once was, but Liu Xiaoyi is not satisfied,
Unwilling to be poor, she has never stopped her dream of making a fortune, looking at her daughter who is about to bloom, she can't wait to start this journey of Hong Kong to make money.
It is probably the nature of children not to love their mothers without children, and even if they are hurt more, they still long for the warm embrace of their mothers.
With a few random words, Zhao Jing forgave her mother for the 8 years of her childhood absence, she was very happy, although she was reluctant to her grandmother, but maternal love still prevailed.
In this way, Zhao Jing followed her mother to the drunken Hong Kong where she was drunk and golden.
At this time, she did not know that this would be a road of no return that would open her tragic life.
02
In the eighties, Hong Kong was full of luxury, and Liu Xiaoyi quickly indulged in it.
She first married, and her daughter followed her stepfather to change her name to Chen Baolian, and then Liu Xiaoyi became obsessed with gambling and pinned her dreams of changing her fate on getting rich overnight.
As the so-called "ten gambling and nine frauds, every gambling must lose", Liu Xiaoyi, who fell into it, soon owed a huge amount of gambling debts, and was forced to cornered by creditors.
She set her eyes on Chen Baolian, who was already budding and standing tall.
Under her arrangement, 15-year-old Chen Baolian went to become a tender model, relying on taking adult photos, and soon paid off her gambling debts.
Liu Xiaoyi tasted the sweetness, has such a beautiful daughter as a "cash cow", she has confidence at the gambling table, her gambling addiction is getting bigger and bigger, and she doesn't feel the slightest distress when she loses money.
For her, as long as it takes time, with her daughter's beauty, money and fame are not what she wants.
After all, in that era, appearance was the stepping stone to the entertainment industry, and glamorous beauties either entered the entertainment industry to earn tens of millions of dollars, or married into a wealthy family to raise dignity.
Zhang Min, also from Shanghai, walked the streets and walked into Xiang Huasheng's heart and became the master of Yongsheng movies;
Li Zhi made countless bigwigs compete with his proud posture on the stage of Miss Asia, making Jet Li abandon his original match and chase after ten years before holding the wedding of the century.
Liu Xiaoyi, who unlocked the new wealth code, soon had a new direction, and in 1990, she sent 17-year-old Chen Baolian to the "Miss Asia" draft competition, thinking that with her daughter's unique beauty, she would definitely win the top three.
Who knew that the beauty pageant of Sister Ya was powerful that year, not only Wu Qili, who gave birth to the "little dragon girl" for Jackie Chan in the future, but also Zhou Hongren, Yang Yumei, Chen Daina, and Shi Qilian, who were very powerful.
Chen Baolian, who also has good looks and figure, ended up in the final because she was still young and lacked stage experience, but she was still signed by ATV with her amazing beauty.
But a newcomer with no acting experience, Chen Baolian could not adapt to the high-intensity work rhythm at all, and soon she was terminated by ATV without any achievements.
This is completely unexpected for Liu Xiaoyi, and the daughter who has high hopes can't even enter the door of the entertainment industry? How can this fulfill your dream of making a fortune?
Just when there was no way out, an "opportunity" came to the door.
03
A film company wanted Chen Baolian to play the heroine of its own movie, and gave Liu Xiaoyi a salary that she could not refuse, and this movie is the Fengyue film "Liaozhai Three Episodes of the Lantern Grass Monk".
17-year-old Chen Baolian, with the shyness of a virginity, acted as the heroine in that bold and unrestrained wind and moon film, revealing two points, showing her good figure to the fullest, and all kinds of expressions were so soul-crushing that people couldn't look at it directly...
In 1991, the movie was released, and overnight Chen Baolian became the goddess of the dreams of all Hong Kong men.
Liu Xiaoyi, who got the salary and box office share, finally achieved financial freedom, and she almost dreamed of waking up laughing, so she took advantage of the victory to chase and help Chen Baolian take over 8 wind and moon films.
With the release of films one after another, Chen Baolian became famous, and was called the "goddess of wind and moon films" together with Ye Ziqi and Ye Yuqing, and became a first-line actress on a par with Carina Lau, Zhou Huimin, Luo Meiwei and others.
As for whether Chen Baolian is happy or not, whether she wants it or not, no one cares.
Others will only think that the road of stars is easy to take, as long as they are in good shape, dare to take off, and make money quickly and more, but I don't know how many tears Chen Baolian has shed behind her back in those years.
Charlie Cao, an actor who has worked with Chen Baolian, once recalled: "She was crying all the time and was not allowed to be touched by others. ”
But where does she have the right to say "no"?
Liu Xiaoyi had already helped her sign the contract and collected the money, if she didn't shoot, the liquidated damages alone would not be something they could afford.
Therefore, when her peers were still studying on campus without worry, Chen Baolian had to do only one thing every day - undress.
04
Without parents caring, no friends to talk to, and even her closest grandmother thousands of miles away, Chen Baolian lives like a walking corpse every day, without the slightest right to choose.
She wants to break free from the cage, wants to get out of the mud, wants to leave the entertainment park that is shiny on the surface but is actually dirty, and live a peaceful and stable life.
With such expectations, 20-year-old Chen Baolian met 31-year-old Mo Shaocong when filming "Sword Slave Blood Contract", and the two fell in love because of the drama and quickly rubbed the spark of love.
She regarded this man as the salvation of her life, but after getting along for a while, she found that the other party was just playing on a whim, never moved sincerely, and even there were other women outside.
The first relationship ended without a problem, Mo Shaocong turned his head and aimed at Hong Xin again, while Chen Baolian, who was emotionally traumatized, focused on work.
In 1994, the Fengyue film market gradually declined, and related actors went ashore to transform.
Chen Baolian, who was appreciated by Stephen Chow, starred in "Domestic Ling Ling Paint", a sexy female killer "God of Beauty", although there are not many scenes, but it attracts the attention of the audience.
I thought that with this transformation work, Chen Baolian would be like Shu Qi, "put back the clothes she once took off, one by one", but fate once again played a big joke on her.
In 1996, due to prolonged severe pain in the abdomen, Chen Baolian was diagnosed with a uterine cyst and needed to rest for half a year without any strenuous exercise.
Obviously it's just a small physical problem, because the sick is a star, it has become a "pillar of shame" existence,
Hong Kong media rushed to report her condition, and various "stigmatizing" labels were clinging to her.
After recuperating for half a year, the transformation of the business was over, in order to earn money, Chen Baolian could only return to the old business,
Fortunately, the new and the old are the main theme of the wind and moon films, and Chen Baolian, who has been in this industry for six years, will still make the audience feel aesthetic fatigue even if she is beautiful,
Seeing that he was about to become the front wave that was slapped to death on the beach by the back wave, a man appeared.
05
Huang Renzhong, the only son of the former Kuomintang Huang Shaogu, is a well-known figure in Baodao, who earned more than 5 billion Taiwan dollars by speculating in stocks when he was young, and in 1995, the 55-year-old Huang Renzhong officially retired to enjoy life.
Although he was called "Taiwan's first ugly man" by Li Ao, in front of a net worth of more than 10 billion, his appearance is not worth mentioning at all.
With countless amounts of money, Huang Renzhong's usual hobby has become contact with female stars, and Lin Qingxia, Zhong Chuhong, and Teresa Teng have all been related to this business tycoon.
He also once said in front of the media that there is no woman in the world that he can't get, women are the driving force of his life, and he can't eat without women.
For his great cause of hunting for glare, he even specially prepared two billion activity funds to make up for his lack of appearance.
After retirement, the idle Huang Renzhong regarded "hunting Yan" as a top priority, and it was rumored that in his heyday, there were up to a hundred girlfriends in his "harem",
There is a huge living room sofa in the home, which can accommodate 20 or 30 people at the same time.
In order to continuously expand his "harem" team, Huang Renzhong would read some newspapers and magazines from time to time to find new hunting objects.
Until one day, he saw Chen Baolian sitting in front of the camera in a cheongsam in a magazine, and the smile on her eyebrows was deeply imprinted in Huang Renzhong's heart, and even the beauty in his arms was not fragrant.
In order to get on the line, Huang Renzhong found a relationship and made an appointment with Chen Baolian, and the two talked happily, and soon recognized Chen Baolian as a "goddaughter".
Chen Baolian, who has never felt her father's love, has always longed to be protected and loved, and after experiencing emotional trauma and various rumors,
Huang Renzhong, who cares, considerate and gives himself money like a father, makes Chen Baolian, who longs for a family, full of security,
So under Huang Renzhong's fierce pursuit, she quickly fell in love with this man who was 33 years older than herself.
Chen Baolian, who has obviously sunk in the Fengyue Field for nearly ten years, but is still naïve and simple, thought that she had finally met a "lifebuoy", and put all her feelings on her godfather Huang Renzhong, unable to extricate herself.
Huang Renzhong said to her: "If you come to Taiwan, you can become a real actor." ”
Therefore, Chen Baolian followed him to Taiwan without hesitation.
To say that Huang Renzhong, at the beginning, he was indeed very good to Chen Baolian, who had married four wives successively, in order to reassure Chen Baolian, decisively divorced his fourth wife Xu Guiying.
Usually Chen Baolian does what she does first, whether it is making trouble in a bar, making friends who are not scrupulous, or doing other things that ordinary people cannot understand, Huang Ren will pamper herself to clean up the mess for her.
After a long time, Chen Baolian gradually became dissatisfied that she had no name next to Huang Renzhong, began to eat other women's vinegar, and even punched and kicked other women who followed Huang Renzhong, making the villa chickens fly and dogs jump.
But would Huang Renzhong be willing to give up an entire forest for one person?
Of course not.
In 1997, Huang Ren, who had lost patience with Chen Baolian, chose to break up, and no matter how Chen Baolian retained his pleading, he was still unmoved.
Just took out a sum of money, hoping that Chen Baolian could go abroad for further study, because he promised to let her be a real actress.
But Chen Baolian, who has not studied seriously since she was 12 years old, how can she be patient to precipitate herself?
With that money, she traveled to Japan, England, and Canada, and spent two or three months in each place, drinking and having fun.
She didn't understand Huang Renzhong's good intentions, and after the money was squandered, she turned back to Taiwan to find Huang Renzhong.
At this time, Huang Renzhong already had other goddaughters by his side, and there was still Chen Baolian's place.
No matter how Chen Baolian cried and stayed, Huang Renzhong was still unmoved, and directly ordered someone to take her out of the villa.
06
Breaking up with Huang Renzhong was hit ten thousand times deeper than Mo Shaocong, in order to be able to save her godfather, Chen Baolian's behavior became more and more out of control, just like a child will cry to attract the attention of his parents, Chen Baolian also tried to use various ways, hoping to get Huang Renzhong's attention.
In an interview, she claimed that she had a little ghost amulet, and directly pulled off the dress on her body for reporters to shoot;
She got drunk at a bar, argued with singer Zhang Kefan and others, was scratched in the center of her eyebrows, and had 13 stitches in a row;
She lost control of her emotions at the premiere of the movie "Sensory World", committed suicide by cutting her wrists with a knife, and still behaved crazy after being rescued;
Until the end of 1998, under the guidance of the master of fate ministers, Chen Baolian changed her name to Zhao Xuanwen and converted to Buddhism, with the legal name Minghui.
However, the Buddha was not able to bring her out of the shadow left by the life of "Chen Baolian".
After filming the movies "Sea Flower" and "Yan Descending Soul", Chen Baolian relapsed from her old illness, ran to find Huang Renzhong again, and even threatened death after being turned away, taking sleeping pills on the spot and preparing to commit suicide.
Although she was saved in time, she still did not receive much attention from Huang Renzhong, and the disheartened Chen Baolian was stimulated again and her behavior became more crazy.
Because he was refused to bring sleeping pills through Japanese customs, he stripped at the airport and tore his hair;
Buying jewelry without giving money and beating people, being sent to the police station and making a big noise;
Fought with someone in London, was sentenced to ten days in prison ...
Such crazy days passed until 2001, and in the end, whether she lit a pillow at home, rushed to the university to slap the security guard, or took medicine indiscriminately and was sent to the hospital, it was no longer a new thing in the public eye.
Chen Baolian has thus become a "crazy woman" in the eyes of everyone, and is called the "four crazy kings" of Hong Kong together with Lan Jieying, Hong Chaofeng, and Cai Fenghua.
Because of the effect of the drug and the gradual loss of control of her spirit, Chen Baolian's figure is out of shape, her face is dry and sallow and sickly,
What was once a glamorous stunner has finally become a monster that people are afraid to avoid.
During this period, Chen Baolian also tried to make changes and start over, but the way she changed was always to find a new man to be her own salvation.
And after experiencing one scandal after another, she still hasn't met a real good person,
It was not until she was unintentionally pregnant that Chen Baolian made up her mind to shoulder the responsibility of motherhood and give birth to the child well.
In June 2002, in a hospital in Shanghai, Chen Baolian gave birth to a boy by caesarean section, and when she saw the newborn rejuvenated, she smiled and told her friends that she would take good care of the child.
Unfortunately, fate is still unwilling to let her go, and the slow and bad wounds on her stomach torment her night and night, coupled with the child's endless crying, Chen Baolian's already unstable emotions break out again.
On July 31, 2002, Chen Baolian, who gave birth in Shanghai for only one month, jumped from her home on the 24th floor due to postpartum depression at the age of 29.
07
In Chen Baolian's suicide note, she wrote:
My fate in my short life has been sealed since I was 15 years old. My appearance and figure, which everyone has always noticed, are actually the greatest sorrow in my life.
In her life, it seems that there are few happy moments, whether it is family affection or love, in the end it is empty.
At the end of the suicide note, she wrote:
"Mommy, tell the young master for me, Baolian is gone, take good care of your body!" Pauline loved him before she died, and I will not allow anyone to slander him. ”
The young master in Chen Baolian's mouth is Huang Renzhong, the man she can't let go of until she dies.
After learning of Chen Baolian's death, Huang Renzhong locked himself in his room for two whole days,
After coming out, he told reporters that Chen Baolian had called her before she died.
She said, "Young Master, I want to go home." ”
He thought she was short of money again, because every time she was short of money in those years, she would call him.
He said, "I have made a will, and I will send you your share." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The indifferent tone stung Chen Baolian, she didn't understand why the man who had spoiled her and loved her so much wanted to treat her like this, this time she finally died and decided not to entangle anymore.
Not long after Chen Baolian's death, because of the financial storm and the stock market shock, Huang Renzhong's net worth of tens of billions was like a cloud, not only lost cleanly, but also made his son bear more than 2 billion debts.
And the bohemian inhibition of his youth finally reversed, his body became weaker and weaker due to diabetes, his former "confidant" left him, and his former friends also regarded him as a flood beast.
In 2004, two years after Chen Baolian's death, Huang Renzhong also passed away, and on the day of her death, there was no spiritual hall, no tablet, and no relatives and friends to see her off.
A sensational business boss, greedy for money and lustful all his life, and finally desolate in the evening, harming others and harming himself.
epilogue
Chen Baolian jumped, the child left behind became an orphan, could not find her biological father, and was regarded as a burden by her grandmother, and finally Faye Wong's agent Qiu Yongkuan extended a helping hand, so that the child could grow up safely.
And those wind and moon films that Chen Baolian once shot became extremely popular after her death, and even sold out of stock for a time.
What's more, according to Chen Baolian's story, a movie called "The Life of Peerless Star Baolian was quickly rushed out" to consume the dead and harvest the box office.
But no one has ever asked whether she is willing to enter the entertainment industry.
Just like years ago, no one ever cared if she was willing to make those movies.
Throughout Chen Baolian's short and bumpy life, she has not received the slightest favor from fate from beginning to end, and even the beauty that others flock to her has become the fundamental reason for her to fall into the abyss.
Since ancient times, how thin the face is, the incense has disappeared and the jade has died who is pitiful.
