In 1983, Shen Lijun was born in the bustling metropolis of Shanghai, and successfully entered the Shanghai Theater Academy with her extraordinary temperament and talent. During her time at school, Shen Lijun became a high-profile "campus goddess" with her outstanding appearance and amiable personality.
After graduation, Shen Lijun officially stepped into the entertainment industry with her love and longing for her acting career. She also experienced many difficulties and setbacks at first, just like the newcomers, but with her own hard work and talent, she soon got some opportunities for small roles.
Every time she performs, she devotes herself to shaping the role, which has been well received by industry insiders.
After Shen Lijun collaborated with the well-known movie star Louis Koo in the movie "Qiandu", her career began to reach a new peak. This cooperation with Louis Koo allowed Shen Lijun to give full play to her acting skills, and also let more audiences see the strength of this new actress.
Since the release of the movie, Shen Lijun's popularity has increased rapidly, and she began to receive more film and television invitations.
When her career was booming, Dai Lihua's heart was full of expectations and confusion for the future. She is looking forward to greater development in the entertainment industry and is eager to have a happy relationship.
However, fate seems to have paved an unusual path for her.
Standing at the crossroads of her life, Shen Lijun has hope for the future in her eyes, but she is overwhelmed by the upcoming turning point and how the unknown turning point will change her life.
She who once shined in the spotlight is slowly moving towards a seemingly brilliant but actually dangerous future.
2011 was an important turning point in her life for 28-year-old Shen Lijun. This year, she met Guo Qibiao, a wealthy businessman. Their encounter was like a fairy tale, and Guo Qibiao's handsome appearance and prominent status made Shen Lijun's heart move.
After a short period of love, Shen Lijun entered the palace of marriage and began her "wealthy life".
However, reality soon made Shen Lijun realize that life is actually more difficult and complicated. Soon after getting married, she faced a difficult choice: whether to continue her fledgling acting career or devote herself to family life.
Under Guo Qibiao's expectations, Shen Lijun finally chose the latter and decided to become a full-time wife, however, this decision meant that she had to give up her dreams and efforts over the years and adapt to a new way of life.
At first, Shen Lijun had great expectations for this choice. She fantasizes about finding new life values in the life of a wealthy family and becoming a good wife and mother. However, the reality is far more painful than she imagined.
Rules and etiquette kept her from moving freely, and the once-familiar spotlight and applause were replaced by daily chores.
What is even more painful is that Shen Lijun realizes that she has fewer and fewer opportunities to get along with her husband, Guo Qibiao, who is busy with his career and often has to socialize outside the home, and rarely has time to stay with his family.
When Shen Lijun tried to communicate with her husband, she often received a perfunctory and indifferent response.
As time passed, Shen began to question her choice. She recalls the days when she was in the entertainment industry, when it was hard but full of passion and hope.
And now, she feels like she is locked in a golden cage, deprived of her freedom and dreams.
Despite the contradictions and uneasiness in her heart, Shen Lijun still chooses patience and compromise in order to maintain her marriage. She struggles to adapt to this life by playing the role of the daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, but she does not know that a bigger blow awaits her, and a storm that can destroy faith is quietly brewing.
Shen Lijun became pregnant with a child soon after marriage, bringing new hope to this wealthy family. However, the arrival of the child did not make the family more harmonious, but only strained the relationship between her and her husband, Guo Qibiao.
The quiet advent of postpartum depression made the already fragile Shen Lijun even worse.
Just as Shen Lijun was actively adjusting her mentality and trying to restore her confidence in life, a bigger blow came unexpectedly. She accidentally discovered that her husband Guo Qibiao had an improper relationship with other women, and this sudden blow, like a thunderbolt from the sky, completely shattered her vision of a good marriage.
Her world seemed to collapse in an instant, and her heart was filled with anger, pain, and a deep sense of betrayal.
When faced with her husband's cheating, Shen Lijun confronted Guo Qibiao many times, trying to save the marriage. However, Guo's attitude made her feel even more desperate. Not only did he not repent, but accused Shen Lijun of not being considerate enough and not understanding his work pressure.
Each conversation ended in a heated argument, making Shen Lijun feel even more lonely and helpless.
At this time, the relationship between Shen Lijun and her mother-in-law was also becoming increasingly tense. Her mother-in-law was dissatisfied with her housekeeping skills and parenting style, and often blamed her, making her feel helpless and isolated. Once a confident actress, she now feels like she has nowhere to go at home.
For the sake of the child, Shen Lijun chose forbearance and tried her best to play the role of the perfect wife and mother. But the wounds in her heart continue to grow because of this life. In the eyes of outsiders, she lives an enviable and wealthy life, but only Shen Lijun knows that this life has brought her endless pain and suffering.
In 2013, Shen Lijun gave birth to her second child, but the arrival of this new life did not improve the family relationship, on the contrary, the responsibility of taking care of the two children fell on her shoulders.
Guo Qibiao is still busy with his career and spending time outside, and rarely fulfills his responsibilities as a father.
During this time, Shen Lijun wanted to escape from the family that suffocated her many times, but every time she saw the innocent faces of the children, she dispelled this idea. She told herself that for the sake of the child, she had to hold on.
However, this reluctant persistence made her mental state deteriorate.
In the past, Shen Lijun was full of vitality and hope for the future, but now the burden of life makes her breathless, full of contradictions and pain, but she can't find a solution. This constant stress and despair set the stage for the tragedy that followed.
Having given birth to two children in succession and constant family pressure made Shen Lijun's mental state worse day by day. She used to be a radiant woman, but now she is tired, and her eyes are full of confusion and melancholy.
She began to experience severe symptoms of anxiety and depression, lost interest in life, was in a state of confusion all day long, and became almost a soulless person.
In this predicament, Shen Lijun has tried to get help many times. First of all, she confided her troubles to her friends, hoping to get understanding and support. However, her distress seemed insignificant to others.
After all, in the eyes of many people, she has an enviable rich life, and her friends often prevaricate her with words like "you are already very happy" and "want to open up", which makes Shen Lijun feel even more lonely.
Shen Lijun seeks help from strangers on social platforms in desperation, but only receives some perfunctory replies, which makes her feel abandoned by the whole world and trapped in an abyss of loneliness that no one understands.
Every time she turned on her phone and saw those cold responses, her heart ached as if it had been cut with a knife.
Shen Lijun tried to communicate with her husband Guo Qibiao, hoping to get his understanding and support. However, each time it ended in a heated quarrel. Guo Qibiao couldn't understand the pain his wife endured, but felt that she was too sensitive and hypocritical.
His indifferent attitude made Shen Lijun despair about the marriage, believing that the marriage had broken down.
As time passed, Shen Lijun's mental state became worse and worse. She began to develop a tendency to self-injure and sometimes locked herself in her room crying for hours. However, these unusual behaviors did not attract enough attention from the family, who still thought she was just making a fuss.
Shen Lijun felt like a bird in a cage, constantly calling for help, but no one heard her voice.
During this time, Shen Lijun's behavior became more and more abnormal, she began to neglect to take care of her appearance, often had insomnia, and sometimes even had thoughts of suicide, however, these changes did not arouse strong attention from her family, Guo Qibiao was busy with his career and affairs, and rarely cared about his wife's condition, and her mother-in-law even thought that she was pretending to be and deliberately winning sympathy.
In the end, the once lively and cheerful Shen Lijun was swallowed up by depression and despair. Her cries for help were lost in the sea, and no one understood the pain in her heart. This mental torture continued and led her to an extremely dangerous path.
One day in 2018, 35-year-old Shen Lijun was disheartened by a heated argument with her husband, Guo Qibiao. Years of grievance, pain and despair all exploded at this moment, which eventually led her to choose to end her own life.
In the fierce quarrel, Guo Qibiao did not understand Shen Lijun's pain, but accused her of not knowing how to be grateful and not cherishing the current life. These evil words were like sharp blades, stabbing Shen Lijun's heart.
She suddenly realized that in this family, in the eyes of her husband, she had lost the value of her existence as an independent individual.
After the quarrel ended, Shen Lijun stood alone in front of the window on the 28th floor, facing into the distance. Her memories flashed like a movie: from a dazzling actress to a wealthy daughter-in-law like a cage. The dreams and longed-for lives that were once pursued have now come to naught.
Her eyes gradually lost their luster, as if everything had lost its meaning.
At this moment, Shen Lijun made a decision that no one expected, and she chose to end her life in an extreme way. The moment she jumped into it, she probably felt a relief that she had never felt before, free from all the pain and bondage.
After the news came out, the entire Shanghai and even the entire entertainment industry were shocked. The girl who was once full of energy and hope for the future is gone forever. Her loss not only plunged the family into grief, but also aroused widespread concern in society.
After the incident, the police found the suicide note left by Shen Lijun, which showed her long-term pain and despair. In this letter, she mentions the failure of her marriage and the pressure of her family, and her inability to even get rid of depression.
This suicide note reveals the deeper reasons behind the tragedy, and also makes people begin to reflect on what kind of truth is hidden behind this seemingly happy and wealthy marriage.
Shen Lijun's death is like a hammer that has awakened many people, and her story has triggered people's in-depth thinking about social issues such as wealthy marriages, women's status, and mental health.
Shen Lijun's death has caused strong repercussions in society, and her story is like a mirror, reflecting many deep-seated social problems.
First of all, the public began to pay more attention to the survival plight of women in showbiz. For example, Shen Lijun has changed from a glamorous actress to a tormented daughter-in-law of a wealthy family, and her experience deeply reveals the difficult choice between career and family of female artists.
This has inspired people to think deeply about women's career development and social roles.
Secondly, Shen Lijun's tragedy reveals the practical problems behind wealthy marriages. The splendor and affluence on the surface cannot hide the pain and loneliness in the depths. This reminds us that true happiness does not lie in the abundance of material foundations, but in understanding and respect on both sides.
At the same time, the incident also highlighted the importance of mental health. As a public figure, Shen Lijun has suffered from depression for a long time, but has not received timely treatment and effective help.
This is a warning to us that society needs to pay more attention to the mental health of individuals and provide timely support and assistance to those who are in need.
Finally, Shen Lijun's story is also a deep reflection on social values, which requires us to re-examine what true happiness is, rather than blindly pursuing superficial glamour and wealth.
This tragedy is a wake-up call for many, and it teaches us that a more caring, understanding and inclusive social environment should be built where everyone can truly achieve inner happiness and fulfillment.
Shen Lijun's loss is sad, but we also hope that through her story, we can draw the attention of society to these issues and prevent similar tragedies from happening again.
