Zhou Yun, as his name suggests.
The face with a typical oriental temperament is indifferent, elegant and solemn.
In the public's impression, when it comes to Zhou Yun, the first thing that inevitably comes to mind is her famous husband, Jiang Wen.
In Jiang Wen's eyes, Zhou Yun can be described as the existence of "white moonlight", no matter how much he loves to shoot mature women in movies and the obscure sexual desire between men and women, but as long as Zhou Yun is here, it must be all sacred and untouchable.
Zhou Yun has appeared in Jiang Wen's movies many times, and he is used to filming female hormones, ** seductive mature woman, but when he is filming his wife Zhou Yun, he is always looking up, and he can't see a little prodigal and blasphemy.
As an art creator, Jiang Wen bluntly said the importance of women to himself:
I am willing to look up to women, I want the women in the movie to be independent and capable, and they will not know themselves without being tempered by women. ”
However, such a Zhou Yun is not a weak lotus, but a wild apricot with strong vitality.
Zhou Yun, who can subdue the prodigal son, is by no means simple.
Zhou Yun, in Jiang Wen's films, has a kind of divinity that cannot be violated and blasphemed, which is a temperament that all the women in his movies have never had.
It's a preference.
In 2010, Jiang Wen directed the movie "Let the Bullets Fly", he starred in the protagonist Zhang Muzhi, nicknamed "Zhang Mazi", after the Beiyang War, he became a fierce general in the army and became a green forest bandit.
The film has a strong personal style, and the classic line "what the fuck is called a fucking surprise" is still impressive today.

This movie was a huge success, and the lines in it are still in the form of metaphors after many years, and they are still talked about by the audience, which can be called the "Bible of the New Era", this bullet thrown by Jiang Wen has been flying for more than ten years.
Zhou Yun played a supporting role in the film "Sister Hua", which was a strange woman.
At the beginning of the movie, she performed drumming with a group of women to welcome the new county magistrate of Goose City, and Sister Hua stood in the middle wearing a distinctive pure white top.
After Zhang Mazi entered the Goose City, he executed the bandits with righteousness and awe, and was full of ambition, and the bloody and violent scenes during the execution made the women who were originally beating the drums and dancing feel frightened, and they turned their backs to hide to the side.
I saw Sister Hua calmly blowing the white feathers in the air, this calm and relaxed temperament attracted Zhang Mazi, and also fascinated his younger brothers.

White. Divinity. Nothing to do with desires.
It's a wonderful feeling, there's always something between you and her, it's not the alienation of human indifference, it's not arrogance, it's an indescribable sense of distance.
Zhou Yun has spent more than 20 years in movies and life to complete a change in life roles.
Her famous identity is Jiang Wen's wife, and her more important identity is Zhou Yun.
01 "Zhou Yun travels to the Forbidden City, as if walking in his own home. ”
Zhou Yun is the main guest of the guardian of the world heritage in the documentary cultural program "Ten Thousand Miles Riding Alone", so that the world cultural heritage can be connected with the current era with temperature.
She wore a red flower jacket and walked in the snowy Forbidden City, beautiful as a painting.
The face with a typical oriental temperament is indifferent, elegant and solemn.
In the public's impression, when it comes to Zhou Yun, the first thing that inevitably comes to mind is her famous husband, Jiang Wen.
Zhou Yun's first impression of Jiang Wen was the famous movie "Sunny Days" in 1995.
In it, she saw the wonderful and the fantastic.
My stories always take place in the summer, and the hot climate makes people more exposed and harder to hide the desires in their hearts. At that time, it seemed like it was always summer, and the sun was always free to accompany us, and the sun was so bright that it was black in front of us. "In the seemingly inconsequential monologue, there is actually a tension between the individual and the times.
Stills from the 1995 movie "Sunny Days".
The story takes place in Beijing in the early 70s of the 20th century, at the peak of the Cultural Revolution, adults have no time to pay attention to their children, boys and girls in the military compound, in that boring and hot summer, spend their youth.
There is a throbbing love and sexual impulse, and there is also an unspeakable revolutionary spirit.
Ma Xiaojun was attracted to a girl in a red swimsuit named Milan, who stared at her for a long time, squandering his hormones under the dazzling scorching sun and red flags everywhere.
In the 1995 movie "Sunny Days", Ma Xiaojun (Xia Yu) fragment: "This city belongs to us. ”
This is Jiang Wen's first film directed as a director, adapted from Wang Shuo's "Animal Ferocious", in which the story is both true and false, it is the youth in Jiang Wen's vague memory, and it is the soul full of human flavor.
It was 1995, and seventeen-year-old Zhou Yun couldn't calm down after watching Jiang Wen's "Sunny Day", and she admired the director's talent.
This was the first time she walked into the cinema to watch a movie, and she never expected that eight years later, she would have a wonderful fate with the director behind the movie.
Stills from the 1995 movie "Sunny Days".
Zhou Yun is a native of Wenzhou, but this southern girl is never obedient, when she was a girl, her parents let her learn Xi piano, she was not interested, the first few sentences of "Dedicated to Alice", she took three years to learn.
The parents sighed, feeling that their daughter must have no chance to be in literature and art.
Zhou Yuncai does not believe in evil, when she was 15 years old, without the knowledge of her family, she gave herself the alias "Zhou Wuying", and signed up for the first Wenzhou Advertising Model TV Contest alone, and easily won the championship with her unique temperament.
That southern city, immersed in the smile of this young girl, someone even smashed the light box on the street in the middle of the night, just to take Zhou Yun's poster home.
Zhou Yun when he was young.
Many years later, the slogan of the Wenzhou Advertising Model TV Contest is still "Do you want to be the next Zhou Yun?".”
On the judges' bench on the day of the finals, one of the judges was the famous Wang Jinghua.
Who is Wang Jinghua?
China's first generation of cultural agents, since 1991 began to get involved in the music industry film and television brokerage, has brought Li Huizhen, Li Bingbing, Hu Jun, Fan Bingbing and other artists, the star circle respected"Sister Hua"。
Wang Jinghua liked this champion girl very much, and after the game, she said to Zhou Yun: "Keep a **." ”
Who knew that Zhou Yun thought that Wang Jinghua was a ** in the rivers and lakes, so he casually made up a ** number and left in a hurry.
She was like the name "Zhou Wuying" she gave herself, and disappeared without a trace.
02 Zhou Yun, who became Miss Wenzhou beauty pageant, did not take advantage of the situation to apply for art colleges, but continued to go back to school to finish high school, and after graduation, entered an ordinary public institution and engaged in accounting work.
She lives a 9-to-5 life every day, dealing with boring numbers, and Zhou Yun quickly gets bored with such days.
In 1999, Zhou Yun traveled to Beijing with her friends to relax, walking in the strange and huge Beijing, her heart felt surging, without a trace of fear.
Zhou Yun is a person who is destined to shine.
After the southern girl came to Beijing, she fell in love with the city, so she stayed here and started to drift north.
She quit her job as an accountant, and at the suggestion of her fellow villagers in the Oriental Song and Dance Troupe, she was admitted to the ** Drama Academy and became Jiang Wen's sister, and her fate began from there.
When she was in college, Zhou Yun cooperated with actor Tony Leung to shoot commercials, and the competition with her at that time was nothing more than all beauties, and she became the heroine with her special temperament.
In the same year, Zhou Yun signed three heroines with the Zedong Film Company of literary film director Wong Kar-wai.
Zhou Yun, as its name suggests, has a unique charm.
The pair of eyes are bright and innocent, the smile is warm and calm, soft but never weak, this temperament has touched many people, including Jiang Wen.
I love the clarity of her eyes and the recklessness of laughing out loud. ”
Zhou Yun and Jiang Wen.
The two met in the movie "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", starring Zhao Wei, Jiang Wen, Wang Xueqi and others, with a strong lineup.
Zhou Yun plays a little monk Juehui, the director said that she can wear a hair cover, who knew that she said that she would act really, what kind of hair cover to wear, this move made Jiang Wen, as the starring actor, notice her, this girl is not ordinary.

At that time, Jiang Wengang fell from the peak of his life to the ground, because he made the movie "The Devil is Coming" without passing the radio and television censorship, he participated in the Cannes Film Festival alone, and was ordered not to make movies for 5 years.
The roof leak happened to rain overnight, and his French wife Sandrine also returned to Paris, France with her daughter.
By chance, Zhou Yun passed by Jiang Wen's studio and met Jiang Wen, who was drinking alone, his relationship with his French wife Sandrin was broken, and he missed his daughter abroad very much, Zhou Yun saw the fragile side of this tough guy for the first time.
I didn't expect Jiang Wen to be lonely and lonely behind his boldness. ”
The two talked together, the huge age difference did not create a gap, Zhou Yun admired Jiang Wen's talent, she couldn't help but feel sorry when she saw this lonely and fragile man.
This fellow sister of the Chinese opera is like a beam of warm sun, which makes Jiang Wen feel comfortable and warm.
Not long after, Jiang Wen and Sandrin divorced, and in 2005, Zhou Yun married Jiang Wen, who was 15 years older than him.
Jiang Wen and Zhou Yun.
This year, Zhou Yun was 27 years old and Jiang Wen was 42 years old.
For a while, ** was in an uproar, and everyone called Zhou Yun a "third party", in this regard, Jiang Wen, who has always disdained to explain his private affairs to the outside world, was very abnormal and quickly stood up to protect his wife:
Zhou Yun is not a third party, she and I only started to fall in love after I separated, it's all my fault, I hope you don't hurt her. ”
Jiang Wen and Zhou Yun.
03 Jiang Wen has a unique vision and is very good at excavating the profound beauty of his wife and putting it into his own artwork, so we saw a different Zhou Yun in "The Sun Also Rises".
"One generation comes, one generation goes, the earth lasts forever, the sun rises, the sun sets, and the sun rises as usual" in the Bible, which was the inspiration for Jiang Wen's movie**, which was very in line with his state of mind at that time. He did not choose the usual film narrative method, but used a chapter-style circular narrative structure, and the four interlaced stories were themed on madness, love, guns, and dreams, and added a lot of stream-of-consciousness processing and a lot of blank space. In 2007, Zhou Yun starred in this literary film directed by Jiang Wen, and the role of "Crazy Mother" is the spiritual core of the whole story.
2007 film "The Sun Also Rises".
Stills of Crazy Mother (played by Zhou Yun).
Listen, you don't understand, you don't see. ”
The crazy mother is plain-faced, with a deep love and hatred on her body, she went to the army to visit her husband while pregnant, but learned that her husband betrayed her and died disgracefully.
Greatly stimulated, she became insane, unable to live a normal life, raising her son alone, and the crazy mother always did some ridiculous things, such as running barefoot, talking to herself all day long, and reading those two lines of poetry in dialect:
In the past, people have taken the yellow crane to go, and the yellow crane tower is vacant here. ”
2007 film "The Sun Also Rises".
Crazy mother (played by Zhou Yun).
No one understands her, and she doesn't need anyone to understand.
Jiang Wen said: "She just stays away from the crowd, but she does all the good things. ”
"Crazy Mom" shows a solemn, heavy, and great appearance in "The Sun Also Rises", and Jiang Wen can't wait to portray Zhou Yun as the "mother of the earth".
2007 film "The Sun Also Rises".

It is worth mentioning that Zhou Yun was in a real state of pregnancy at that time, and during the filming of the movie, she gave birth to her first son with Jiang Wen, named "Jiang Taro".
Under Zhou Yun's gentle appearance is a resolute heart, when Jiang Wen hesitated and worried about his son's name, Zhou Yun immediately clapped: "It's called Taro, don't you dislike the Yamato nation?"When you're angry, you can call yourself Taro, his son. ”
04 Zhou Yun In Jiang Wen's eyes, it can be described as the existence of "white moonlight", no matter how much he loves to shoot mature women in movies and the vague sexual desire between men and women, but as long as Zhou Yun is here, it must be all sacred and untouchable.
After getting married, Zhou Yun appeared in Jiang Wen's movies many times, and he was used to filming full of female hormones, ** seductive mature woman, but when filming his wife Zhou Yun, he always looked up, and he couldn't see a little prodigal and blasphemy.
Zhou Yun under the lens of Jiang Wen's movie.
In Jiang Wen's films, there are always two completely different women, one is a passionate red rose, and the other is a holy and cold white rose.
Red Rose is the wet hair of Dr. Lin's actor Chen Chong in "The Sun Also Rises", and the thick calves looming under the white coat.

The red rose can also be the amorous Tang Fengyi in "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice", Xu Qing's slim cheongsam with high heels, provocative eyes, and a deliberately pouting ass.

However, the actor of White Rose has always been Zhou Yun and has never changed.
In Jiang Wen's films, Zhou Yun is always inviolable, complex and deep and inexplicable, and various stories brew a self-consistent charm in her.

As an art creator, Jiang Wen bluntly said the importance of women to himself:
I am willing to look up to women, I want the women in the movie to be independent and capable, and they will not know themselves without being tempered by women. However, such a Zhou Yun is not a weak lotus, but a wild apricot with strong vitality.
In the movie "Evil Does Not Prevail Over Justice", Peng Yuyan, who has many rival scenes with Zhou Yun, Li Tianran's actor said: "Qiaohong stood opposite me, her concentration made me feel very convinced, and I completely entered the play at that moment. ”

This beauty also attracted director Chen Kexin, who supervised the film "October Siege", specially invited 32-year-old Zhou Yun to play Ah Si's fiancée Ah Chun, she only has one scene in the film, which is to smile at Nicholas Tse passing by.
There are few shots of Ah Chun, but the innocent and pure smile impressed many people.
When talking about why he chose Zhou Yun to play this young role, Chen Kexin said:
I've seen a lot of girls, all of them are only about 20 years old, but after a few years, they have changed a lot. Over the years, Zhou Yun is one of the few actresses in this circle who has hardly changed. ”

In 2015, "Assassin Nie Yinniang".
The literary martial arts movie directed by Hou Xiaoxian was released, and Zhou Yun played Tian Yuanshi and Jingjing'er alone, she interpreted the calm atmosphere of the main room and the awe-inspiring coldness of the top killer vividly and naturally.
Under the lens language that belongs to Hou Xiaoxian, Zhou Yun's classical charm is indissolvable, and she has her own understanding of the role:
When an evil woman becomes a mother, she transforms and becomes very strong inside. Family is above life and death in her heart, and as long as she thinks this thing is worth doing, she will do it without hesitation. ”

05 Zhou Yun, very cool.
The public is a little curious about the combination of actors and directors who are 15 years apart, but Zhou Yun responded extremely blandly:
Whoever talks to no one can talk about who is strong and who is not, only suitable and inappropriate. Today's marriage is free to choose, and it is not arranged. He has the right to choose me, I have the right to choose him, he has the right to choose others, and so do I. It's a fair thing to do. "It's hard for you to imagine how such a woman who has taken care of the family for many years and doesn't show up much can be so humble and not arrogant.
Zhou Yun and Jiang Wen.
Every time Zhou Yun stands next to her talented and high-status husband Jiang Wen, she never panics, and is even stronger than Jiang Wen's aura.
Everyone knows that Jiang Wen said everything on the set, his temper was very big, Zhou Yun's temper was even greater, Hou Xiaoxian said that Zhou Yun's gentleness was most of the cases, and it was also scary to start a temper, and she was the only one who dared to argue with Jiang Wen on the set.
For a while, Jiang Wen's whole person was in a very bad state when he was filming, and Zhou Yun felt sorry for her husband and cooked him a pot of tonic chicken soup.
Jiang Wen took a sip and put it down, disgusted by the taste of chicken soup: "What is this, it's too unpalatable." ”
Zhou Yun didn't say a word of blame, just picked up the pot of chicken soup and went out, giving it to a beggar in the community, who drank it with relish, and ate it so much that there was not a little shredded meat left on the chicken bones.
After returning home, Zhou Yun said to Jiang Wen proudly: "You don't like to eat the things I make, naturally some people love to eat them." ”
Zhou Yun and Jiang Wen.
Jiang Wen is very good, he was successfully tamed by Zhou Yun.
When he heard someone say that Zhou Yun's beauty is not a gorgeous and blooming peony, but an unassuming orchid, Jiang Wen was displeased: "Fart, she is a peony in my eyes." ”
In such an era full of independent women, Zhou Yun is willing to hide in the back of the spotlight and give more of her energy to her family, but this does not mean compromise.
In the face of her marriage, she believes that the energy of two people together must be equal, and a person with weak energy cannot live with someone with strong energy.
A reporter once asked Zhou Yun, Chen Hong admires her husband Chen Kaige, what kind of vision do you have for Jiang Wen?
Zhou Yun was still angular, and replied without hesitation: "Find a husband in life, look up every day, Jiang Wen has a personality, I also have my own personality, it's not that I became Jiang Wen's wife today, and I became a personality." ”
Becoming a wife, taking care of the family, the trivialities of life have not consumed her beauty, Zhou Yun is 44 years old, and her eyes are still crystal clear, with a neat ponytail, and she looks innocent.
When she just got married, a ** reporter asked her during an interview: "How did you tie Jiang Wen's heart?"”
Zhou Yun replied calmly: "Why do you want to tie his heart, he still wants to tie my heart." ”
Back then, when filming the movie "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice", Peng Yuyan, who starred Li Tianran, still remembered that when he met the director for the first time and talked about why he wanted to make a movie, Jiang Wen said: "Making a movie can escape the current world, and the world of movies is more beautiful." ”
Zhou Yun, who was sitting on the side, asked rhetorically: "Is it?"”
Jiang Wen was immediately intimidated, and his desire to survive skyrocketed: "The real world is more beautiful." ”
After many years of marriage, when Zhou Yun looked at Jiang Wen, there was still a clearly visible light in her eyes.
When the crew of the movie "Evil Does Not Prevail" appeared at the Shanghai Film Festival, the 40-year-old Zhou Yun was breathtakingly beautiful, with red lips and a black skirt, a simple ball head, and a smooth swan neck outlining elegant lines.
When she is not smiling, she is resolute, but she is not aggressive, and her indifferent eyes look into the distance across the crowd, like a cold light on the red carpet, which makes people feel that they do not eat the fireworks of the world, and Jiang Wen at that time became a bleak foil.
"Evil does not suppress righteousness" made Jiang Wen stand and earn a little money, but he was collectively ridiculed for this is just a little wave of "Jiang Lang's talent".
06 Zhou Yun likes to read Shi Tiesheng's "Retreat Notes" very much.
It was the real life of Shi Tiesheng in a wheelchair, the days when Rotary asked for directions, his smile was full of love and sincerity, gentle and ordinary, he refused to accept the arrangement of fate, did not fall down with a bang, and no one could resist.
Shi Tiesheng's experience made Zhou Yun, who was reading, feel that the territory of life can be so broad, and the drama in the world is nothing more than that.
She reads books in order to pull herself out of real life, even if only for a moment, between the virtual and the real, she is getting calmer and calmer:
Now, I don't have to go to the beach or the mountains, I can find peace in any corner of the city. ”
Zhou Yun seems to have no quarrel with the world, but in fact, he has always been the image of a tree, standing with Jiang Wen and growing up, without looking up and accompanying him.
Jiang Wen is a romantic person in his bones, but in his wife Zhou Yun's heart, his romance is unpretentious.
Regarding the most romantic thing, Zhou Yun said that once Jiang Wen asked her how long it would take to get home, and she said that there was still a quarter of an hour.
Jiang Wen said: "Then I'll wait for you at the door for 14 minutes." ”
