In the 80s of the last century, the Hong Kong film and television industry experienced a glorious period, and many stars such as Jackie Chan, Andy Lau, and Chow Yun-fat left countless classic works. Their talent and charisma are unforgettable.
Not only are the male actors outstanding, but the actresses are also emerging with their beauty and acting skills. Names such as Wang Zuxian, Guan Zhilin, and Lin Qingxia are enough to remind people of the glory of the Hong Kong film and television industry. Their beauty and talent impressed the audience.
However,In this glorious era, there is also an actress who is controversial. She is Weng Jingjing, and she has been labeled with many negative labels, such as "third party", "taking the opportunity to take the position", and "serving people with Israel". These comments are a great insult to a woman and make her very troubled.
Weng Jingjing's opportunity to enter the showbiz was a chance encounter with director Chen Xinjian. At the time, she was only 14 years old. During a chance encounter in Hong Kong, she recognized Chen Xinjian because he was an acquaintance of her mother, Zhao Xiaoyu. During the conversation, Chen Xinjian mentioned that he was looking for the heroine of the new movie. Weng Jingjing generously recommended herself to him.
Chen Xinjian was attracted by Weng Jingjing's slim and pure and lovely image, and decided to give her a chance. So, Weng Jingjing entered the door of the showbiz.
However,On the day of the audition, Weng Jingjing encountered difficulties. She has never been in contact with the actor industry, and she has no clue about a topic of "the heroine suffers from sheep epilepsy". She felt helpless and confused, not knowing how to perform. This is a huge challenge for a young actor.
Despite the difficulties, Weng Jingjing is confident in herself. She knew she had talent and potential, she just needed more experience and guidance. She decided to work hard to Xi and improve herself to meet the challenges of the future.
Weng Jing Jing, a veritable "rich second generation", was born in Vietnam in 1964. Her father was a well-known local businessman, Weng Yechu, while her mother, Zhao Xiaoyu, had close relationships with powerful figures.
With her outstanding temperament, Weng Jingjing was selected as the heroine in an selection, thus stepping into the door of the showbiz. Her collaboration with Chen Baiqiang in the movie "Applause" not only achieved great success, but also won praise and word-of-mouth affirmation from the audience. The tacit cooperation between the two was seamless, bringing an audio-visual feast to the audience.
Although Weng Jingjing worked with other actresses she had worked with, she was unfortunately infamous as the "plague god". She became a curse in the mouths of the public, and although this claim has no scientific basis and cannot prove its truth, it cannot escape this unfair label.
Weng Jingjing's childhood was not as happy as people imagined. Her parents divorced when she was young, and her father, Weng Yechu, left the mother and daughter and never returned. Such a parting made Weng Jingjing never receive her father's love since she was a child, and she could only rely on her mother Zhao Xiaoyu to live.
Zhao Xiaoyu is not a very capable woman, but she has never relied on men. She settled in Hong Kong with her young Weng Jingjing and lived a simple and hard-working life. Soon after, she married Liu Yanquan, a wealthy businessman in Macau, and gave birth to a son for him. Zhao Xiaoyu's education of Weng Jingjing is also very in line with her character, she taught Weng Jingjing to be tough, rely on herself, and be good at seizing opportunities.
However,Zhao Xiaoyu has a shortcoming, that is, "patriarchy". She didn't like her daughter, and rarely had physical contact with Weng Jingjing throughout her childhood and growing up. According to Weng Jingjing's own recollections, her mother never hugged her, and she always felt cold around her. Such indifference made Weng Jingjing feel lonely and helpless in her heart, and she longed for her mother's love and warmth, but she never got it.
Once, her mother told Weng Jingjing that she would take her to the park, which was something Weng Jingjing dreamed of. She waited excitedly, hoping to spend quality time with her mother this time. "Wake up and go", this is the promise that her mother made to Weng Jingjing. However,When Weng Jingjing woke up, her mother was no longer at home. "I went to play mahjong all night and won't be coming back. This sentence made Weng Jingjing cry loudly, and she felt disappointed and sad because her mother's promise was broken again.
Weng Jingjing's childhood was full of frustration and loneliness, and she learned to be independent and strong from an early age. Although she did not receive the warm love of her mother, such an experience shaped her resolute character and made her cherish her growth and future even more.
Weng Jingjing has learned the qualities of strength since she was a child, and she understands that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. That's exactly what her mother taught her when she was a child. However, her time with her mother only lasted until she was 14 years old. During an argument, Weng Jingjing, who had been emotionally accumulating for a long time, yelled at her mother and asked why she was always scolded and never praised. The mother didn't speak, just turned around and walked into the kitchen and took out a kitchen knife. Weng Jingjing was frightened, she turned her head and fled the house, only to feel a kitchen knife whistling overhead. From that moment on, she knew she would never be able to go back to that home.
Weng Jingjing, who is alone, understands that if she wants to survive, she must make money. After much deliberation, she decided to sell soda. She made a profit by selling a soda, which cost only two yuan, to six yuan a glass. This small business allowed her to earn her first pot of gold, and it also made her realize that she has business acumen and a risk-taking spirit.
Through Chen Xinjian's introduction, Weng Jingjing entered the showbiz. Despite the unequal treatment she faced as a newcomer, she excelled and was not only talented but also eye-catching. She worked hard to continuously improve her acting skills and image, and gradually won the recognition of the audience and the industry.
However, the three actors who worked with Weng Jingjing passed away one after another, which made her known as the "men's nemesis". Despite her work with them, Ms. Weng does not see herself as the cause of these tragedies. She was deeply grieved, but at the same time aware of the fragility and impermanence of life. All this did not stop her from moving on, and she was determined to pursue her dream and strive to become a good actress.
In the entertainment industry, the phenomenon of worshipping high and stepping on low is serious, which also makes Weng Jingjing frequently bullied. Due to the lack of father's love since childhood, she could not ask her family for help, so she could only persevere on her own.
When Weng Jingjing and Leslie Cheung co-starred in a movie when they were 16 years old, they clearly felt the bullying of them by the crew. At that time, Leslie Cheung was just an unknown existence and did not have much fame.
In order to avoid being bullied again, Leslie Cheung decided to find a powerful person to help him. He found Liu Jialiang, an important figure in the Hong Kong film and television industry, and said that he was his admirer and hoped to worship him as a teacher. Liu Jialiang readily agreed to this request.
Since then, Leslie Cheung has had a backer and has never been bullied by the crew again. He saw this change and suggested that Weng Jingjing also go to apprenticeship. However,Weng Jingjing thought of an unusual method.
She found Liu Jialiang and proposed that he pretend to be her boyfriend so that no one would dare to bully her anymore. Unexpectedly, Liu Jialiang agreed to this request, and the relationship between the two developed into a real husband and wife.
Liu Jialiang was full of love for Weng Jingjing, and Weng Jingjing accepted all his requests without getting tired. Their bond grew deeper and deeper, providing each other with the strength to support each other.
