In 1987, Zhang Yimou, who was filming the martial arts masterpiece "Red Sorghum", met a special actress - Gong Li. Director Zhang was impressed by Gong Li's talent and temperament, and the two gradually fell in love during the months-long filming.
On the day the movie was finished, Zhang Yimou plucked up the courage to confess to Gong Li, fortunately, Gong Li also had the same thoughts.
A green love sprouted from this, and the two were like-minded, talked about everything, and couldn't wait to stick together 24 hours a day. What's even more gratifying is that the golden boy and girl are still talking about marriage - Zhang Yimou divorced his first wife regardless of his reputation in order to be with his sweetheart.
Zhang Weiping, a person who seems to be incompatible with the film and television industry, has become the culprit of Zhang Yimou and Gong Li's breakup.
Mr. Zhang, who was born in the 60s of the last century, originally worked as a pharmacist in a pharmaceutical company, and later accumulated a certain amount of capital in business. Cunning, thoughtful, and unscrupulous in order to achieve the goal.
The feud with Gong Li and Zhang Yimou began at a party - Zhang Weiping's girlfriend Zhang Jing asked to see her idol Gong Li, and Gong Li also happily went to the appointment. Director Zhang, who has always been silent, lacks interest in this "medicine king", but Zhang Jing and Gong Li chatted hotly and gradually became friends.
Zhang Weiping proudly put this fate in his heart - one day, maybe he can use it.
Later, Zhang Yimou needed Zhang Weiping's help when he had something, and the two also became acquainted with each other because of their work contacts.
So, he began a series of conspiracies......
Gong Li and Zhang Yimou's division and combination
Under Zhang Weiping's instigation, Zhang Yimou gradually became suspicious of Gong Li. In 1995, Gong Li, as a guest of the automobile event, socially danced with the organizers.
Zhang Jing deliberately added oil and vinegar to Zhang Yimou's ears, saying that Gong Li and other men were "dancing on the face". Zhang Yimou was unimpressed at first, but the seeds of suspicion planted finally sprouted and blossomed.
Gong Li was disappointed with Zhang Yimou's perfunctory. The two have lived together for 8 years, and she has been looking forward to a marriage that is justified. Finally one day, Gong Li's brother asked Zhang Yimou about his plans to get married for her.
Zhang Yimou's answer was tantamount to a slap in the face: "Isn't it just a marriage certificate, is it that important?" Gong Li's tears rolled in her eyes, and she trembled her lips and said, "Zhang Yimou, let's break up."
In the years of separation, Zhang Yimou has never been able to forgive himself for his sloppiness. He restrained himself in his work, for fear that he would accidentally reveal his thoughts. Finally, he met his current wife, Chen Ting, a gentle and considerate woman who healed the wounds left by Gong Li in his life.
Today's Zhang Yimou has a successful career, surrounded by three lovely children, which can be called happy.
Conclusion: Final Feelings and Lessons
Fate is so wonderful, you never know what will happen in the next moment. Zhang Yimou and Gong Li thought that Bai Shou would be old, but a misunderstanding broke them up. If it weren't for Zhang Weiping, a man who called himself a "hardcore brother" back then, maybe they would be living completely different lives now.
However, the world is unpredictable, and the sky is unpredictable. Each of us has experienced the impermanence and tricks of fate to a greater or lesser extent. It reminds us of the importance of cherishing the present, staying away from right and wrong, and choosing a confidant carefully.
