On this winter day full of cold winds, we lost a legend on the screen, Xie Yuan, at the age of 61, whose departure is not only the end of an era, but also an indelible pain in the hearts of countless fans.
Xie Yuan, as the leader of the "Three Musketeers of Comedy", left countless classic laughter and memories, his deep friendship with Ge You, is a good story in the industry, Ge You said sadly: "One less person, very happy together", this sentence, like a blade that cuts through the heart, expresses the deep affection of the two brothers.
Chen Kaige's evaluation of Xie Yuan is even more moving, he said that Xie Yuan is a person who really knows how to appreciate him, and Xie Yuan's life trajectory proves that he is not only skilled in the entertainment industry, but also has won the admiration of countless peers.
His strength and character have made him another Grand Slam winner who has won the highest honor in the entertainment industry after Li Na, and his death is a loss for all of us, but what he left to the world is not only the glory on the screen, but also the endless love for art.
On the last day of Xie Yuan, it is said that he was still busy in the crew until late at night, and his departure is undoubtedly a huge loss to the entertainment industry, however, at his memorial service, except for his family, wife and a few close friends, there was no one else, this scene silently told the lonely but glorious life of the artist.
The love story of Xie Yuan and his wife Qiu Yue, who is 17 years younger than him, was as hot as a flame, and they depended on each other, but now only Qiu Yue is left alone to face deep loss, Xie Yuan's life story is also quite bumpy, he lost his biological father at the age of two, experienced the reorganization and changes of the family, his life is full of accidents and changes, he never thought of becoming an actor, but he was brought into the world of performance by fate.
Xie Yuan's graduation from university coincided with the beginning of a new chapter in his life, when his classmates were competing for the opportunity to teach in an acting class with dreams of acting, and in this fierce competition, Xie Yuan stood out with his talent and enthusiasm and won this enviable job. A stable career also paved the way for his love path.
When he first met Xiao Lin, a beautiful and tall girl, the flame of love ignited in his heart. Through his unremitting efforts and sincere heart, he finally won her heart, but fate always likes to joke, just as their love gradually warmed up, Xie Yuan's classmate Xiao Lin, because of his love for performance, could not give up, and finally chose to change careers, despite this, Xiao Lin did not cut off contact with Xie Yuan, the emotions between them deepened in frequent exchanges, and finally in 1984, the two entered the palace of marriage hand in hand.
In family life, Xie Yuan won the deep love of his mother-in-law and was regarded as his own, however, the evaluation of him by the neighbors was not fair, and some people even slandered him as an incompetent person, in the face of these accusations, his mother-in-law was furious, and her firm support and family warmth became a haven for Xie Yuan's soul.
In his acting career, Xie Yuan won the Golden Rooster Award for his outstanding performance, but the ensuing fame, fortune and pressure, also made his married life gradually become alienated, in 1992, he and his wife broke up peacefully, and moved into the dormitory of Beijing Film Academy alone.
His career has reached its peak, successively won the Hundred Flowers Award, the Feitian Award and the Golden Eagle Award, becoming a legend in the entertainment industry, in addition to honors, he has also made many friends in his work, especially with Ge You and Tian Liang's deep friendship, they are jointly known as the "Three Musketeers of Comedy", their story is not only touching, but also a symbol of envy of countless people.
In Xie Yuan's life journey, when he thought he had come out of the shadow of his last marriage, Qiu Yue's appearance brought a new chapter to his life, although he was 17 years older than Qiu Yue and had experienced a divorce, Qiu Yue didn't care about it, she valued Xie Yuan's personality and talent, and the age gap seemed insignificant in her eyes.
Their marriage is a journey of sharing joys and sorrows, both of them are engaged in acting, but they fail to experience the joy of having biological children, not because they have physical problems, but because Qiuyue missed the best childbearing period, this unexpected regret, Xie Yuan's heart is full of disappointment and sadness, he originally hoped to spend the rest of his life with Qiuyue, and also experience the joy of being a father, but he did not expect this opportunity to quietly slip away.
In 2020, Xie Yuan died suddenly of a heart attack, his life was forever frozen in that summer, on his deathbed, he told Qiu Yue that he hoped that his funeral would be simple and low-key, without complicated rituals, as long as there were memories of a few close friends, it was enough, although Qiu Yue promised him, but deep down in his heart was really relieved, who can know?
Qiu Yue is undoubtedly the most heartbroken person after Xie Yuan's death, her world has become empty because of the departure of the dearest person, loneliness follows her, there is no sweet words from Xie Yuan, the feeling of home also collapses, her grief can not be comforted by words, she wakes up from her dream every night, faces the empty room, and feels the biting loneliness.
