However, the reality is far more cruel than imagined, and because he has no background and connections, he can only start as an extra, often queuing for hours for a small role.
In 2003, when Wang Baoqiang, a young man from Guizhou, was 21 years old, he ushered in a turning point in his life. He starred in the movie "Blind Well" as the role of Song Jun, which won praise from the audience for his unpretentious but deeply rooted performance.
This role is like a golden key that opens the door to his acting career.

He puts his heart and soul into each character, revealing the soul of the character in his own unique way.
Looking back on his past, Wang Baoqiang sighed: "I am a child from the countryside, and my pursuit of dreams has always been unswerving. From a barren countryside to a star-studded stage, Wang Baoqiang has interpreted a legend with the protagonist's dream-chasing journey through his own efforts and talents.
His story is not only a manifestation of his personal struggle, but also a spiritual force that inspires countless young people with dreams.
In 2006, Wang Baoqiang's career was in full swing, and an event allowed him to meet Ma Rong, who was still a student at Beijing Film Academy at the time. Ma Rong has outstanding appearance and outstanding temperament. The two fell in love at first sight and quickly fell in love.

In 2013, Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong held a grand wedding in Sanya, Hainan, with a star-studded and lively scene. At the wedding, Wang Baoqiang's face was full of happiness and announced to the media: "We will always love each other and never separate." Ma Rong also smiled brightly, and her happiness was overflowing, and this grand ceremony, which was dubbed the "wedding of the century" by the media, became the best proof of Wang Baoqiang's career and love.
After marriage, Wang Baoqiang's career development flourished. He has participated in box office blockbusters such as "Macau Vice" and "Heart Blossom Road", and has also begun to try his hand at directing. In terms of family life, Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong have a son and a daughter, and often share the good times of family life on social media.
Their lives seem to be happy and happy, and they are praised by many as a model couple. However, as Wang Baoqiang later lamented in an interview, "I thought I had the whole world, but I didn't know that it was just a mirage." Behind this seemingly perfect marriage, undercurrents have begun to surge.
In August 2014, Wang Baoqiang's agent Song Zhe began to appear frequently around Ma Rong, although this did not attract much attention at the time, but it was a precursor to a future marriage crisis.
Wang Baoqiang seems to be aware of something unusual and has begun to reduce sharing his family life on social media and focus instead on work. During this period, the movie "Charlotte's Troubles" starring him was a huge success, but it also became the last bright spot in his and Ma Rong's married life.
Looking back on this period of time, Wang Baoqiang once sighed deeply: "I love her wholeheartedly, but in exchange for the deepest hurt." This seemingly happy marriage ended up being shattered.
On August 14, 2014, the news that shocked the entertainment industry was like a thunderclap: Wang Baoqiang issued a statement on social media, accusing his wife Ma Rong of having an improper relationship with his agent Song Zhe, and transferring his property behind his back.
This news instantly detonated the entire entertainment industry, and also shocked and heartbroken countless fans who paid attention to this "model couple".
Wang Baoqiang's statement was full of pain and anger: "I came from a rural background, and I have always been loyal to my feelings. This phrase expresses his disappointment and the pain of being betrayed. Ma Rong quickly denied the accusation of cheating, and said that Wang Baoqiang was slanderous, and the whole incident fell into a chaotic situation of "he said what she said".
In the days that followed, the divorce case was gradually made public in public, and various details were exposed. From the intimate photos of Ma Rong and Song Zhe hugging, to the footage taken by the hidden camera installed in Wang Baoqiang's home, to the evidence of property transfer, every detail is like a knife, deeply piercing Wang Baoqiang's heart.
Wang Baoqiang's supporters have been upset by him and condemned Ma Rong's actions. Social media was full of criticism of Ms. Ma, and Ms. Wang received a lot of sympathy and support.
This marriage change is not only a tragedy of personal feelings, but also a social topic of national concern.
In this turmoil, Wang Baoqiang showed great restraint and a sense of responsibility, he said in an interview with the media: "No matter what happens, I will protect the child." This sentence not only won people's respect, but also reflected his responsibility as a father.
However, the divorce proceedings did not go smoothly, the two parties disputed each other over the division of property and child custody, Ma Rong put forward a high demand for property division, and Wang Baoqiang insisted on obtaining custody of the children.
The whole process has gone through nearly two years of long-term litigation.
In February 2018, this hotly discussed divorce case finally came to an end. The court ruled that Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong were divorced, and at the same time made a trial and ruling on the division of property. The final verdict showed that Ma Rong needed to return about 100 million yuan of Wang Baoqiang's property, and Wang Baoqiang was given the primary custody of the child.
Although the lawsuit has come to an end, the damage caused by this turmoil to Wang Baoqiang has not subsided. He must face the pain of losing a loved one and being betrayed, while also dealing with public attention and media scrutiny.
In an interview, Wang Baoqiang choked up and said: "I just want to act well and take care of my children."

After the divorce turmoil, Wang Baoqiang was not defeated, and he chose to put all his energy into his work to show his indomitable spirit. In February 2019, the movie "The New King of Comedy", which he directed and starred in, was released.
Although the box office results were not satisfactory, his performance in this work is remarkable, he expressed his love and dedication to films, and he firmly said: "I love movies, and I will continue to work hard".
In the days that followed, Wang Baoqiang bravely tried a variety of new roles and challenges. He participated in main theme movies such as "My Motherland and Me" and "My Hometown and Me", and at the same time did not give up the comedy films he is good at.
In this process, Wang Baoqiang's acting skills have become increasingly sophisticated, and he has been recognized by the industry and the audience, he said in an interview: "Every role is an opportunity for growth, and I hope to continue to break through myself."
In March 2024, Wang Baoqiang's career reached a new height, and he won the Best Actor award for a well-known film award for his wonderful performance in the movie "Chasing Dreams in the Country". Wang Baoqiang, who was standing on the podium, had tears flashing in his eyes, and his voice was a little choked: "This award is not only an affirmation of my acting skills, but also an encouragement to my persistence over the years." At this moment, what the audience saw was a Wang Baoqiang who had gone through hardships but was still strong.

His experience also teaches us that even at a low point in life, as long as we don't give up, there will always be a day when we get back on our feet.
As Wang Baoqiang himself said: "Life is like acting, you must play every role with your heart."
It has been 7 years since they divorced in 2018, but Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong's life trajectories have developed in completely different directions.
After a period of downturn, Wang Baoqiang successfully reinvented himself in his acting career with his own efforts. He has not only made new achievements in his acting career, but also actively participated in public welfare undertakings and reshaped his positive image.

In contrast, Ma Rong's life experience is quite controversial, and she once tried to enter the live broadcast industry after the divorce, but the results were not as expected. According to reports, she promoted high-end skincare products and luxury goods on a live streaming platform, but was questioned by netizens because the price was too high.
In addition, Ma Rong has also posted luxury photos on social platforms many times, which has aroused criticism from netizens.
What's even more remarkable is that Ma Rong has also been involved in a number of negative news. According to media reports, she was forced by the court to pay 188 million yuan for debts, and four companies under her name were seized. At present, except for the companies that have been executed, the remaining three have had their business licenses revoked.
These incidents have seriously affected Ma Rong's public image.
Ma Rong has tried various ways to maintain her exposure, but it has not changed the public's negative impression of her. In an interview, she stressed: "I just want to live a pure life. But this way of life has led to more questions and criticism.
Wang Baoqiang and Ma Rong's living conditions are in stark contrast: Wang Baoqiang focuses on his career, strives to grow, and wins respect; Ma Rong is caught in the whirlpool of negative news, and her quality of life is deteriorating.
This difference is not only reflected in career development, but also in public evaluation and social status.

Whether we are facing marriage, career or life, we need to stick to our roots and be proactive. Wang Baoqiang's experience enlightens us that as long as we stick to our dreams and maintain pure kindness, we will always usher in a bright future of our own.
