As a recognized veteran actor by the public, Liu Wei can be called the most diligent one among them, from "Autumn Impression" in 1983 to the recently launched "Snow Labyrinth", from the protagonist to the supporting role, he has works to show the audience almost every year.
The reason why Liu Wei works so hard is because he attaches great importance to his family, and all of this comes from his father's words and deeds.
Liu Wei was born in 1957, a turbulent time, when his father, as the head of the propaganda department of the Changchun Federation of Trade Unions, was also forced to be involved in the whirlpool of the times, from the city to the countryside.
Liu Wei's family has 6 people, but his grandmother is old, and there are younger brothers and sisters who need to be taken care of at home.
Life in the countryside is not easy, fire, cooking, farming, everything needs to be done by yourself, in such difficult days, the father who is only 1.7 meters tall can always find fun, under his influence, Liu Wei has always maintained an optimistic attitude.
3 years later, Liu Wei returned to the city from the countryside to go to middle school, because he could play and sing, he entered the school propaganda team, and at the suggestion of the teacher, he was admitted to the Jilin Opera Troupe Quyi Team, focusing on cross talk, and studied under the cross talk master Ma Jingbo.
In the theater, Liu Wei made rapid progress, was valued by the troupe, and was even sent to Tianjin to learn cross talk, 6 years later, he left the troupe and was admitted to the Shanghai Theater Academy to be an actor.
At this time, Liu Wei was also 27 years old, he wanted to start a family, and began to think about life events.
In 1989, when Liu Wei was filming the movie "Women's Rangers", he was with He Qing, who was 7 years old behind him, and was rumored to be a golden boy and a girl by the outside world.
It's a pity that later, Liu Wei became famous with "Tang Minghuang" and won the Golden Eagle Award for Best Actor, but He Qing fell in love with other men and soon broke up with Liu Wei.
10 years later, Liu Wei fell in love again, he and Yang Ruoxi ran for 9 years, and finally this "father-daughter love" with an age difference of more than 20 years ended in a breakup.
In 2008, 51-year-old Liu Wei and makeup artist Liu Xiaoyu got married.
It's a pity that his son was born with autism, and when he got married, in order to buy a house, Liu Wei took out all his savings, and now in order to treat the child, and in order to leave a pension for this special child, he has to work again.
In 2013, Liu Wei took over 4 film and television dramas in one go, and the schedule was directly scheduled for next spring, this kind of fatal frequency of receiving dramas brought a lot of burden to his body, he was physically tired, but he insisted on driving back to Hengdian from Xiamen to Hengdian, and hit a stone pier on the side of the road, resulting in a knee injury.
Liu Wei was found to have three highs in Beijing, and the doctor told him to rest, but he still insisted on working, and Wang Xiaoyu had to stay by his side and urge him to maintain a good routine.
Liu Wei therefore has more time to accompany his son, in order to let his son see the wider world, Liu Wei bought an RV, took his wife and children to travel around the country, and when filming, he rented a house in the city where the crew was located to give his wife and children a temporary home.
Under the careful care of the family, my son, who is suffering from autism, will even take the initiative to speak.
In a follow-up interview, Liu Wei recalled the bits and pieces of his son's past, saying that the way his son showed closeness to people after he was 14 years old was to kick them lightly while people were not paying attention, and even then, he felt happy.
In order to have more time to spend with his family, Liu Wei also began to exercise, in 2022, he filmed "Phoenix Blowing Half Summer", unfortunately broke 6 ribs, he believed in his vitality, but he was also worried about his future life, so he wrote a will.
His care for his family is like a love for his profession, rooted in his heart and flowing in his blood.
