Li Yapeng was born in an ordinary family in Shuimogou District, Urumqi City, Xinjiang. Although his family is not wealthy, the favor of his parents and his own efforts made Li Yapeng perform well when he was a student.
He studied in the primary school of his parents' unit, and his grades were outstanding, and he was named one of the ten outstanding young pioneers in the autonomous region.
When he was in junior high school, Li Yapeng was admitted to the middle school of Urumqi Bayi Middle School with the fourth place in the city, and served as the class leader and secretary of the Youth League Committee there, showing excellent leadership skills.
However, the twist of fate happened quietly in the third year of junior high school, and Li Yapeng ushered in the first relationship in his life, perhaps because of the distraction caused by this relationship, he failed unexpectedly in the high school entrance exam after always having excellent grades.
This failure made the young Li Yapeng feel humiliated, and he decided to start over, so he left his familiar hometown and went to Hefei, Anhui Province to seek refuge with his aunt, and began a period of borrowing life without his parents.
In Hefei, Li Yapeng's academic performance gradually recovered, but his rebellious personality gradually became apparent, and he often clashed with his classmates, and was even forced to return to Urumqi in his third year of high school due to conflicts with gangsters outside the school.
After Li Yapeng returned to his hometown, his life took a major turn. At the class reunion, he met the beautiful Liu Yan and fell in love with her at first sight. In order to chase Liu Yan, Li Yapeng began to waver, and his dream of becoming an engineer since he was a child was also stranded.
In the end, he decided to apply for the Central Academy of Drama with Liu Yan.
In 1990, this enthusiastic Xinjiang teenager was favored by the god of fate. Li Yapeng was successfully admitted to the Performance Department of the Central Academy of Drama, and studied with fellow villagers Liu Yan, Wang Xuebing, Chen Jianbin and others, and started his acting career.
This experience not only shows Li Yapeng's persistent pursuit of his dreams, but also lays the foundation for him to become a "love harvester" in the future.
After Li Yapeng entered the Central Academy of Drama, his life changed dramatically. However, his habit of rational thinking made him unable to adapt to the more emotionally invested acting classes at first.
In addition, his stereotypical personality also made him not get along well with his classmates, and most frustrating to him, his goddess Liu Yan chose to drop out of school because he was favored by a Taiwan director, and instead entered the University of International Business and Economics to prepare for development in the United States.
This failed love was an important turning point for Li Yapeng. He began to work hard to liberate his personality, actively participated in the school's literary and artistic activities, and even fell in love with rock music with his fellow countryman Wang Xuebing.
In 1992, he ushered in an important opportunity, director Xu Geng took a fancy to him and asked him to play the leading role in the movie "Testimony of Youth", which was the first important opportunity in his acting career.
In 1993, Li Yapeng returned to his hometown of Urumqi with passion and planned a large-scale rock concert. He traveled around, raised nearly 100,000 yuan in sponsorship, and invited well-known bands such as "Tang Dynasty" and "Cobra" to participate.
This experience not only showed his organizational skills, but also his personality traits of daring to think and do, although he was placed on "probation" at school, but it did not affect his determination to pursue his dreams in the slightest.
In 1994, Li Yapeng graduated from Beijing Film Academy and starred in director Ge Xiaoying's feature film "The Longest Rainbow". But after graduation, he did not immediately devote himself to acting, but chose to write scripts in retreat.
A year later, he had to reconsider his career path due to financial pressures.
1995 was an important opportunity for Li Yapeng. Director Teng Wenji invited him to star in "The Story of Beijing Late Autumn" and collaborated with Chen Baoguo. This TV series has achieved good ratings, which has boosted Li Yapeng's popularity and officially stepped into the showbiz.
While his career is gradually starting, Li Yapeng's love life is also getting better. He met 23-year-old Ke Lan at a party organized by friends, and the two quickly fell in love.
However, due to work reasons, their relationship eventually ended because they got together less and separated more.
After Li Yapeng, he fell in love with Qu Ying, a supermodel-turned-"film and television song" star of the "film and television song". Qu Ying is even willing to silently support Li Yapeng's career development behind her back. This relationship became the focus of the entertainment industry, but it ended for various reasons.
At this stage, Li Yapeng clearly showed a rapid rise in career and love. His attraction is constantly being explored, laying a solid foundation for him to become a "diva harvester" in the future.
In 1998, 27-year-old Li Yapeng ushered in a major turning point in his career. He played the male number one Yang Zheng in the new drama "Carry on Love to the End" directed by Zhang Yibai, partnering with Xu Jinglei. This work, which is known as the originator of mainland idol dramas, has gained super popularity after its premiere on CCTV and has become a good memory of many people's youth.
Li Yapeng became famous with this drama, and became a hot new generation of actors at that time together with Wang Xuebing and Xu Jinglei.
In 2000, the god of luck in the film industry once again extended an olive branch to Li Yapeng. At that time, Zhang Jizhong was preparing to shoot his first Jin Yong martial arts drama "Smiling Proud Jianghu", and under the recommendation of his daughter Zhang Yuxin, he chose to let Li Yapeng play the male protagonist in the play - Ling Hu Chong.
Although Li Yapeng has never been involved in the filming of costume martial arts dramas before, he bravely accepted this challenge In this drama, his rivalry with Xu Qing is really eye-catching and has won a lot of attention.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Jizhong once again invited Li Yapeng to play the male lead in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". In this drama, Li Yapeng partnered with Zhou Xun, who was in a window period at the time. The two fell in love because of the play, and soon there was a scandal.
However, at that time, Li Yapeng was still in a relationship with Qu Ying, Qu Ying faced the speculation of the media, and rushed to the crew to save this relationship, and the three of them even had dinner together, hoping to calm the rumors.
However, Qu Ying's arrival made Zhou Xun feel aggrieved, and Li Yapeng made the relationship between the two deeper and deeper in order to comfort Zhou Xun.
At the end of 2001, Li Yapeng and Qu Ying's relationship for more than two years collapsed. His relationship with Zhou Xun was officially exposed, and Li Yapeng also gave Zhou Xun a platinum ring on his birthday. Zhou Xun said frankly: "Li Yapeng has satisfied all my fantasies about men. "
Their high-profile relationship attracted widespread attention in the entertainment industry at the time.
However, Li Yapeng and Zhou Xun's happy time did not last. As the business flourished, they had to start living separately. At this moment, Li Yapeng met the "61 class" mahjong circle headed by Na Ying and Faye Wong, and the social circle gradually expanded.
During that time, Faye Wong's love life was quite unsmooth, and Li Yapeng was deeply attracted by Faye Wong's beautiful appearance, hearty temperament and interesting conversation, and secretly felt feelings in his heart.
In August 2003, when Faye Wong was at her birthday party, Nicholas Tse stayed in Hong Kong because he accompanied the sick Anita Mui. Li Yapeng seized the opportunity and began to actively pursue Faye Wong. Although Faye Wong is still reluctant to Nicholas Tse, in the face of Li Yapeng's passionate pursuit, coupled with Cecilia Cheung appearing next to Nicholas Tse, Faye Wong finally chose Li Yapeng.
As a result, Li Yapeng ended his one-year relationship with Zhou Xun and devoted himself to the pursuit of Faye Wong. During the filming of the movie "No. 1 in the World", he was unfortunately injured, and during his recuperation, his relationship with Faye Wong became more stable.
During this period, Li Yapeng's career reached its peak, and his love life was also colorful. His unique charm continues to be revealed, and he has gradually become an eye-catching "diva harvester". Whether it is Zhou Xun or Faye Wong, Li Yapeng's love history has become a legend in the entertainment industry.
In 2005, 34-year-old Li Yapeng and 35-year-old Faye Wong tied the knot, and this marriage made Li Yapeng gain the reputation of "diva killer". In order to devote herself to this relationship, Faye Wong chose to fade out of the music scene, and Li Yapeng also turned down many film appointments, concentrated on accompanying Faye Wong, and was willing to be the man behind the "diva".
In May 2006, their daughter Li Yan was born. However, the joy was mixed with worry because Li Yan was diagnosed with a congenital cleft lip. The news sparked public opinion at the time, and Li Yapeng chose to remain silent at first, and did not officially respond until three months later.
In the face of doubts and pressure, Li Yapeng showed a strong sense of responsibility, he did not escape from reality, but chose to face it bravely, and founded the "Yanran Foundation" to provide medical help to children suffering from cleft lip and palate, which not only showed Li Yapeng's love, but also won the respect of the public.
In married life, Li Yapeng has been rumored to have cheated many times, but despite this, his relationship with Faye Wong does not seem to have been greatly affected. The two have always maintained a loving and harmonious image, and have become a model couple in the entertainment industry.
Li Yapeng is even more intimate and goes all out to support Faye Wong.
However, the good times did not last long, on August 22, 2012, Nicholas Tse and Cecilia Cheung announced their divorce, and then some people speculated that Nicholas Tse might get back together with Faye Wong. Although many people were incredulous at first, it turned out that the speculation was not unfounded.
On September 13, 2013, 44-year-old Faye Wong suddenly announced her divorce from Li Yapeng, ending this 8-year marriage. This news instantly caused a shock in the entertainment industry and made many people taste regret.
Sure enough, a year later, Faye Wong and Nicholas Tse made their relationship public again after 12 years of emotional entanglement.
After the divorce, Li Yapeng did not stop. Soon after, he was photographed holding hands with actress Feng Jingen, although Li Yapeng later clarified, saying that he was just being supported by the other party after being drunk. This series of events once again aroused public attention to Li Yapeng's love life.
Although Li Yapeng's marriage ended in failure, this experience is undoubtedly one of the most important chapters in his life. This marriage not only cemented his image as a "diva harvester", but also allowed him to experiment and grow more in his career and charity.
The marriage between Li Yapeng and Faye Wong has become the most eye-catching stroke in his legendary love history.
Li Yapeng, who faced a turning point in his life after the divorce, did not stop moving forward. In 2014, he focused on business and philanthropy, and gradually faded out of the film and television industry. This decision means that Li Yapeng has transformed from a high-profile actor to an ambitious businessman, and it is another major turning point in his life.
However, in the tide of business, Li Yapeng's entrepreneurial road is not all smooth sailing. Despite his enthusiasm for various commercial projects, the results were not satisfactory. In 2018, his career hit a low point, and when he was 47 years old, he was included in the list of dishonesty.
The incident not only hindered his career development, but also left a negative mark on his public image.
Li Yapeng has experienced setbacks in the business world, but his love life has been as colorful as ever. In 2019, he was photographed several times with different women, which attracted a lot of public attention.
This year, Li Yapeng was photographed returning to the apartment with a long black straight beauty and a short-haired woman to face these scandals, Li Yapeng chose to face it calmly, and even took the initiative to admit the relationship.
His candid attitude is also reflected in his relationship with the Yi girl Hai Ha Jinxi. When the photo of the two holding hands was widely spread on the short video platform, Li Yapeng once again generously admitted the relationship.
During this period, although Li Yapeng's career encountered a bottleneck, he still maintained his usual attraction in terms of emotion. His many relationships have not only become a hot topic in the entertainment industry, but also strengthened his image as a "love harvester".
From divas to ordinary girls, Li Yapeng seems to be able to attract different types of women, revealing his unique charm in terms of emotions.
The 51-year-old Li Yapeng decided to switch to the short video platform, which shows his character traits of not being willing to be ordinary and having the courage to try. However, in the face of the ever-changing Internet environment and the aesthetic trend of young people, Li Yapeng's creation seems to be unable to keep up with the pace of the times.
Li Yapeng's creative content has not attracted widespread attention, which may have made him feel a little lost. In the silence of the night, does he recall his colorful life experiences? From a Xinjiang teenager to an acting star, to a business person, and finally to try short video creation, Li Yapeng's life trajectory can be described as ups and downs.
In the ups and downs of his career, Li Yapeng may reflect on his decision to quit the film and television industry and turn to business. However, it is undeniable that despite the relatively tortuous career path of Li Yapeng, he has always exuded a unique charm in terms of emotions.
Li Yapeng's love life has always been a topic that everyone talks about, and all kinds of gossip news emerge in endlessly, from Liu Yan, Zhou Xun to Faye Wong, and then to several relationships in recent years, his love life can be described as colorful.
These experiences not only shaped his public image, but also became an integral part of his life.
