Good bamboo shoots are also bad!
No wonder Chen Chong didn't mention his family background!
It turned out that he was afraid that his behavior would discredit the family!
A family of doctors
Chen Chong, a woman born in 1961 in a medical family in Shanghai, has thrived under the dual influence of academia and art since she was a child.
In the family, his grandfather Zhang Changshao is an internationally renowned pharmacologist who resolutely returned to China to serve the motherland;
Both parents are professors at Fudan University, and his grandfather Chen Wenjing is a leader in the medical field.
However, this academic background did not fully frame Chen Chong's future path.
Chen Chong, born beautiful and talented, is not only proficient in piano skills, but also a literary star of the school.
Although her family was full of expectations that she could continue the family academic tradition, Chen Chong unexpectedly embarked on a journey in acting.
In 1975, by chance, she stepped into the film industry and made her debut in "Jinggang Mountain", although the film was not completed, it had opened the door to a new world for her.
What really made Chen Chong famous was "Youth" directed by Xie Jin.
In this film, with her natural and smart performance, she successfully created the image of the deaf girl "Yamei", competing with Zhang Yu, who was already famous at that time, on the same stage, which was not inferior.
The subsequent "Little Flower" made her popular all over the country, and her cooperation with Tang Guoqiang and Liu Xiaoqing has become a classic memory of a generation.
However, just when Chen Chong was thriving in the domestic film and television industry, she made a surprising decision - to study abroad.
In 1981, she left her homeland and went to the United States with her mother to further her studies, choosing a filmmaking major that was very different from her family.
This decision is not only an insistence on self-pursuit, but also a brave exploration of the unknown world.
During his time in the United States, Chen Chong experienced emotional twists and turns from the peak to the trough.
The sweetness and bitterness of her first love gave her her first taste of love, but it also made her feel lonely and helpless in a foreign country.
The betrayal of her first boyfriend made her fall into deep self-doubt.
At the same time, Chen Chong's life abroad is far more difficult than he imagined!
The difficulty of "self-reliance".
Not only does she have to cope with the heavy workload of schooling, but she also has to support herself and work multiple jobs to make ends meet.
There was even a violation on campus!
From nanny to cleaner, she tried her best in every job, and even laughed at herself for painting the toilet cleaner than her face, but in exchange for indifference and incomprehension.
Working in a Chinese restaurant, the deliberate show-off of the Chinese boss made her suffer humiliation in a foreign country, and on the way home at night, she was only accompanied by tears, and her soul was lonely.
In 1985, Chen Chong returned to China for a short time, and wanted to show people with a positive image, but on the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, a few unintentional words accidentally caused a patriotic controversy, and the public opinion storm rose again, which made her already fragile heart worse.
When she returned to the United States, even the strange eyes of strangers made her unbearable, so she could only hide her face in clothes and cry silently.
In this darkest moment, Liu Qing's appearance was like a ray of warm sunshine, illuminating Chen Chong's world.
As a martial artist and action director in Hollywood, he not only gave Chen Chong emotional comfort, but also became a solid backing for her in her career.
The relationship between the two quickly warmed up, and soon after graduation, Chen Chong quietly tied the knot with Liu Qing in a simple but solemn ceremony in the United States.
Liu Qing, this is not only the love of her life, but also her best partner in her professional journey.
Full of controversy
In 1987, Chen Chong, full of controversy and determination, returned to his homeland with an international team, just to reshape his image in "The Last Emperor".
In the past two years, domestic public opinion has not decreased but increased, and she has a lot of energy in her heart, vowing to turn over with this film.
During the shooting, she showed the ultimate professionalism, even if she encountered the embarrassment caused by the mistake of the performance, she endured the shame to complete the performance.
However, this "accident" was regarded as a masterpiece by the director, but Chen Chong resolutely opposed the screening, fearing that he would anger the domestic audience again, so she forced her to boycott the performance, and finally got the director to compromise.
The film was a great success, nine Oscars were crowned, and Chen Chong's international status soared, but the storm of domestic public opinion did not subside.
The following year, Chen Chong disclosed his identity as a United States citizen, a move that added fuel to the fire, and old grievances and new hatreds erupted together.
At the same time, in terms of marriage, her relationship with Liu Qing also reached an impasse, separation, quarrels, reunion, and the cycle went on and on, until 1990, Liu Qing filed for divorce, and Chen Chong tearfully agreed.
On the occasion of separation, Liu Qing's reminder about the membership fee of the actors' union made Chen Chong cry like rain, and this marriage came to an imperfect end.
Under the double blow, Chen Chong, who is only 30 years old, seems to have experienced vicissitudes of life, full of confusion about love and the future, thinking that he will be lonely for the rest of his life.
But who knew that only 1 year later, she met her "true destiny"!
"4" children
In 1991, a seemingly traditional blind date unexpectedly linked her to Peter Hsu, a skilled and gentle heart surgeon.
At first, Chen Chong scoffed at the blind date, but fate made it happen, the two fell in love at first sight, crossed the gap between career and fame, and finally entered the marriage hall.
This marriage was supposed to be the beautiful beginning of a new chapter in Chen Chong's life, but due to a series of subsequent events, her image was overshadowed.
The combination of Chen Chong and Peter Xu seems to be a match made in heaven, both of them have experienced failed marriages and know how to cherish each other.
However, when Chen Chong adopted twins in China, she became pregnant unexpectedly, and this series of changes made her "mother" image collapse instantly.
In front of the media, she vowed to treat her four children equally, but the twins quietly disappeared from her life and were replaced by the word "transfer", cold and glaring.
This is not only a rash view of life, but also a challenge to the bottom line of human nature.
The "abandonment" event, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, caused ripples.
Chen Chong's defense pales in comparison, money cannot make up for the trauma of the child's soul, let alone cover up her lack of social responsibility as a public figure.
The original article was published in Chongqing Morning Post 2010-02-03 on "Chen Chong's Abandonment of Twin Daughters, Agent's Argument Is Transfer"
This behavior is undoubtedly an indelible stain on her career, and no matter how whitewashed, it cannot cover up the moral flaws behind it.
From the unscrupulous words of the Spring Festival Gala, to the image controversy in Hollywood films, to the renunciation of Chinese nationality, Chen Chong's every step is accompanied by controversy and questioning.
But perhaps it is this family background and life experience that gave her the courage to be fearless of gossip.
At the age of 63, she is already a powerful actress, and even on August 2, she got the right to adapt Qin Huilan's deeds and changed behind the scenes!
However, courage is not the same as being right, especially when it comes to moral choices, and it is important to be cautious so that one mistake does not turn into hatred.
epilogue
Chen Chong's story is a microcosm of the ups and downs of the entertainment industry.
She used her own experience to tell us that no matter where we are, we should maintain humility and reverence, and be responsible for life and the public.
Only in this way can we win real respect and applause on the stage of life.
